    a dart in the center of a dart board
    Erica G.

    This cool little bar has been down the street and around the corner for some time. Cheap beers, darts, pool, and a pretty awesome atmosphere! Service was fast and not as many people at a city bar. (Already is on top of the local bars because of that). We only tried the fry basket, and the fries alone were super good. Me and my friend played darts all night! The only downfall is that the entire bar smells so strong, like cigarettes! It's very overpowering when you are trying to eat and even just enjoy your time. I would definitely come back and order one of their plates to try more of their food. May eat outside, though! I have been hearing pretty great things about their food.

    Nice selection and a lot of regulars here. Pros. -dart and pool table -lots of available parking Cons. -menu brews are out of stock -dirty canned beers -smells like heavy cigarettes (smoking allowed inside)

    I've been here several times in the last few months. On my 2nd visit the bartenders remembered my name and the drink I ordered! Very impressive! The staff is not only attentive, but friendly as well! You feel very welcome here! Right now, on Tuesday, they serve pork and brisket tacos and they are DELICIOUS!!! Best tacos I've had in a long time! I would suggest that they add a chicken option because I bet that would taste awesome, too! They currently serve bone-in wings half-off on Wednesdays with several sauce flavors which are all good! This place also has EXCELLENT drink prices! This bar allows smoking, but it is big enough and ventilated enough that if you are not sitting right at the bar it shouldn't be too bothersome for non-smokers.

The food is very good - a mix of pub fare and authentic Irish to match the atmosphere. We particularly love the cheese curds, potato skins and loaded baked potato soup, but the shepherds pie, corned beef and cabbage, and fall off the bone lamb shank are just as good. The true surprise is the pizza - by far the best in Houston! They recently brought in darts and pool tables, and regularly host trivia and karaoke! Rarely do you find a place that feels like home, but the staff is wonderful and welcoming and the vibes are right. We can't recommend it enough!

The location at Kirkwood Rd and Westheimer Rd is over 20 years. It goes to show that when Houston "updates" a business, they spare no expense. The shopping center is 30 years old but updated every 5 years. Other main tenant is SPEC's Liquor and Wine Retail store just 100 feet away.The rehab team did a great job. The place was getting a bit seedy -- but now the floor plan is opened up and MORE LARGE SCREEN TV's THAN A BUFFALO WINGS store. And even with the rehab the owners have kept prices in "reason". One thing I like is TWO HAPPY HOURS -- great idea in Houston where thousands of us work shifts in Oil & Gas, Medical / Hospitals and Space Center JSC. The first Happy is 5-7p and the 2nd is 9p to ?? Closing. Kitch is also great food and open until 9 or so. We know Westheimer is the real MAIN ST of Houston and Bull has a lot of competion but they don't forget customer service and good food there. Check out the NEW LOOK !!

Steak night starts at 7, which means that's when they start taking orders. If you want to beat the rush, you should already be in your seat by 6:30-6:45. It's a two-man show on steak night. The husband is outside grilling everything on what looks like a standard home grill while the wife is taking orders. Orders go out in batches. They're definitely efficient and work as fast as they can, but with that comes a little abruptness- they aren't the friendliest, but they're focused on getting everyone fed. We got there at 7:05 and didn't get our food until 8:25. Was the wait worth it? Absolutely. The steak was tender and juicy. The lamb chop was charred perfectly. And surprisingly enough, the sausage was my favorite. It was JUICY. When you bite into it, the juices literally burst out. Something had a little kick to it... it wasn't the sauce, but I actually liked it. The jalapeño cheddar mashed potatoes were also great.

If you can't handle spice, I'd recommend just sticking to their ninja sauce though. The pineapple and mashed potatoes provide a nice break from all the meat as well.

Classic pub food on the menu like Shepherd's pie, Burgers, or Fish n'Chips (one of my favorites here). Appetizers like wings and fried pickles are solid too. Service has always been fairly consistent. Bathroom is small, so keep that in mind. It's not a huge place and the booths and tables fill up fast when it's busy.

St. Patty's day can be pretty fun here too (check the calendar for events) They also have happy hour and daily specials, definitely worth checking out!
