    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outside of this restaurant definitely makes you want to step inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were promptly greeted and quickly served by Casey. She was amazing! She was attentive, friendly, helpful and just all around AMAZING at her job! The whiskey burger was recommended and did not disappoint! Cooked perfectly, juicy and so very tasty! We enjoyed everything about our experience here!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice clean place with a really good Irish Whiskey Burger.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One burger was enough for two of us. Casey is friendly and spent a good amount of time talking with us about a multitude of topics. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restrooms are clean but missing towels or a way to dry hands after washing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I snagged a napkin from the service counter just outside the restroom. Prices are fair and included a discount with presenting a military ID. This is a recommend from me! I will be going back for that burger.

    Goat cheese, fig flatbread - yummy
    Catherine R.

    We had a solid meal here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is a combination of bar, dining in, dining outside. Love the lights - it makes for more of an intimate experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was very good. He had the Shepard's Pie (made with lamb). And he loved it. I ordered from the special menu and got the Goat Cheese, Fig, sweet onion flatbread and it was delicious. Truly - hope they keep it on the main menu. Beer was cold, prices are fair. Definitely recommend!

    Corned Beef Sandwich
    Matthew O.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good place to go for a laidback meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the ambiance of the interior. Definitely gives off the Irish pub vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Super friendly servers. I got the Corned Beef Sandwich and was delighted with the portion size. Lots of layers of meat that was well seasoned and goes perfectly with a good Irish Beer. The bread slices could have used a bit more toasting as they started getting soggy towards the end. But all in all, a place I would happily come back to in the future :)

    Scotch egg

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This was a super fun cozy discovery on a cold night![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Popped in for dinner, and the dark restaurant with festive lights was perfect - also plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had 90's music trivia (wed) which we didn't expect to play but it ended up being a blast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The fish and chips were actually very good, and they also had malt vinegar which is a must! Our group tried the Irish version of a scotch egg which we enjoyed. Group also ordered wings and stew, which also got good marks. All in all, it was a fun and tasty find!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Strandhill Public is a cool little spot right in the heart of Brandon, just a few skips from the highway.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's become my go-to place to unwind after work instead of sitting in bumper to bumper traffic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's also a solid lunch spot, though fair warning, the margaritas are dangerously good so maybe don't overdo it if you've got to head back to the office. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe here is modern and fresh no matter what time of day you stop in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Whether you're sitting inside, out on the patio, or posted up at the bar, the service is always on point. The staff is friendly, attentive, and keeps things moving without ever making you feel rushed. Food-wise, I always come back to the sliders and the Cobb salad. Both are consistently great and hit the spot whether I'm in the mood for something hearty or a little lighter. Strandhill Public is one of those places that's easy to love and even easier to make part of your regular routine.

    Perfect place to strike a pose

    Get your holly and jolly, right here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place knows all about merry and bright! They've decorated to the hilt in here-and at their sister location in Tampa Heights. No corner is left untrimmed. These halls are decked and dazzling![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It sends my Christmas heart a rum pum pum pumming! Both locations have the same menu (not large, but good variety) and a fa la la fabulous holiday drink menu-served in the cutest mugs (which you can buy and take home for extra $). Both times, I had the grilled cheese and fries-both times, the sandwich was the perfect combo of crunchy and gooey -and in Brandon, it came with delicious bacon and tomato. I think this meal was less than $15... and it was so filling and satisfying. I was full for the day after a 2pm lunch. Did I tell you about the hot buttered rum? It's velvety comfort and joy, served in an an adorable winking Santa mug. Every time I see hot buttered rum on a menu somewhere, I order it. Only one time was it great-at Killington Ski Resort in Vermont. This... is even better than that. I don't know if it's the oat milk or the type of rum or a secret ingredient-but it's now at the top of my wish list, each holiday season. The elves (staff) in both locations were excellent. All of the servers and bartenders are dressed in festive attire and they seem to be enjoying the seasonal excitement. Both times, our servers knew just when to check in-and when to drop back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Both places were clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]In Brandon, there's a patio out back (with more decorations) and plenty of parking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] (It's in a strip mall next to the Hampton Inn at Causeway and Falkenberg) I hope I can get back a couple more times before the season ends-and I hope they do this every year. I'd love to add it to my annual list of "jolliment." Eat, drink and truly be merry, friends!

    Food, customer service, ambiance awesome. The whole package. Bathrooms clean on clean. Food above average. I felt like family. Thank you for having us. Try something different here.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]We reserved the patio for a private event, and it turned out to be one of the best dinner parties we've ever had![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was incredible--attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. They truly rolled out the red carpet for us. Now, the real star of the night... Chef Emilio! This man can cook. Every dish was unforgettable. We'll absolutely be back. Huge thanks to Rory for the outstanding hospitality--thank you for everything! This place is a total winner. FIVE HUGE STARS across the board!

    I went to Strandhill Public for their Miracle Pop Up Experience and it so convenient not having to cross the bring. The reservation system is more like a request and they'll text you (or atleast they texted me) about four days before the date i set for reservations confirming. We were a party of 8. If Miracle comes back to strandhill definitely get a reservation and eat, because one, it's crowded but two, the food did not miss ! Our servers were kind. Our cocktails from the Miracle Menu are the same as Miracle as Mezzo, but Strandhill pre batch theirs and weren't as good as the other location where Miracle is hosted. They drinks were super strong though, if that's what you like. They do have an espresso machine, so espresso martinis are pretty tasty here. The mussels are a must try! I devoured them. My friends loved their Smash burgers, as well ! Parking is paid street parking or paid parking lot parking;

    Buffalo cauliflower
    Janet U.

    Dear Strandhill Public, you had me a grass-fed beef patties. What can I say? I like quality. With that said the smash burgers are consistently so good here. I came for the grass-fed but I stayed for the amazing flavors for sure. I also highly recommend the buffalo cauliflower as an appetizers. Overall I feel like this place has incredible potential and think live music would just really kick it up a notch. Upon speaking to my waitress about it she actually said there were complaints about it so they took it off. Here's to hoping for a change in that regard. We'll be back for more delicious food though, with or sans the entertainment.

    Mussels
    Deborah N.

    You have got to try the mussels, they are to die for. It's an entree but we shared it as an appetizer! Drinks are good too, Caesar salad is huge. After that you won't need any other apps or entrees, we got the sliders but got them to go!

    Shepherd's pie
    Roger Renzo R.

    I went here to celebrate the birthday of one friend. We were really excited, but I think we went the wrong day because everything went badly. First, I'd like to mention that the waitress was really helpful and friendly and she tried to make our dinner enjoyable. We tried some beer while waiting for the food, and unfortunately, one of us had some weird accumulation of solids inside the beer. That was disgusting. The waitress changed it, but that really turned off the mood. I tried a Guinness that was OK. After ordering the food we had to wait a long time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While waiting, we noticed that liquid was dripping from the AC of the ceiling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] That was not a big problem because we could relocate easily. Our food took a long time, even though there were few people inside. I tried the Shepherd's pie. It had good taste and it was very filling. My friends tried the Drunken mussels, Irish stew, iris whiskey burger, and fish and chips. They said it was OK. We ended with a cheesecake that was fine, but the berries on top were very sour. Everything seemed to be good until later in the night and the next morning when all of us had a strong stomachache. After this experience, I don't think we will go close to this place in the future.

    Do they allow dogs on the patio?

    Dogs are a no go at this establishment, although leashed lizards 🦎 are more than welcomed.

    First, This used to be O'Toole's Irish Pub, so don't be confused. We had a gift card to O'Tooles…read moreand went for dinner, Imagine our surprise when it had become Librandi's! They were very nice and honored our gift card-they changed hands 2 months ago. So, it is a lovely small restaurant/bar with high tops and regular tables. Lots of imported beers, wines and liquor. The Keel's elderberry cider was excellent (local brand). Hubby had a Kilkenny beer. We were there around 5:30 to beat the Friday crowd and there were 2 pretty loud parties and the music was loud (they could turn that down, please). Saying that, one group left which made a huge difference. Our experience was very tasty-Caesar Sandwich/fries (choice of tots or chips), fish and chips (huge slab of lightly breaded haddock and fries). It was all delicious. The waitress/bartender was terrific. While we came from out of town, I can see this being a local hangout. Very nice expereince overall.

The server did mention they're still recovering from the Super Bowl rush, so some items were a little different than usual including wing size, which she said is typically bigger. I went with a vegan friend who really enjoyed their vegan burger, so it's nice to see solid options on both sides of the menu. Full bar, lively atmosphere, and great burgers make this a spot worth checking out for a good pub experience.

It looked delicious but it was riddled with sweet ham. I'm glad I don't have an allergy to it, but I guess if I had an allergy I wouldn't get anything else on there however, if I have asked you not to put ham on it why would you put ham on it?
