    Half and Half
    Carmen Gabriela V.

    Loved the authentic Irish vibes you get at this bar. Irish music playing in the background as you chug your cold Guinness. I had 3 beers (half and half and 2 Kilkenny's) along w my crispy fish tacos and fries! Staff members were friendly and did an excellent job pouring my beer w perfect foamy head! Would visit again if in town, but for thos visiting, make sure to get a cold one!

    It is just for me......

    Had an amazing experience at the Auld. Starting from great customer service to going above and beyond. The food was absolutely delish, with good quality ingredients. Their whiskey selection is outstanding including Japanese whiskey, which is my to go right now.

    It's been almost 20 years since we've been coming to the Auld Dubliner (aka the auld Dub). When we first heard the rumblings that the infamous Irish Pub Company was building a new Irish local, we couldn't wait for its opening. And since we first walked through the doors, we were in love. In love with the atmosphere, the perfectly pulled pints, the food (Dear God the Corned Beef Sandwich is a religious experience! ) and the characters of the staff. We've spent many occasions and life's moments here as well, From birthday dinners to at one time making it out Sunday Supper place to catch a traditional set and our dinner. The Sunday musicians are so good back in 2012 we hired a few to play at our engagement party, and brought a bit of the Auld Dub into our home. Today was no different, popped In for a family birthday celebration and stayed for a Sunday set. The music was fabulous the food amazing and the staff excellent! Ordered the usual: Curry Chips (cooked extra Well Done), and the best corned beef sandwich this side of the Atlantic! It's served perfectly on a crunchy swirled rye bread with an amazing apple jam of apples and caramelized onions. Just excellent! We also ordered an Irish Full Breakfast, which my soul craves every now and then! Basically you can't go wrong eating here.

    We were waxing nostalgic for the Auld Dub, so away we went. There was no wait and there was a group of people at a table playing Irish music...I don't think they were Irish music enthusiasts who meet up, I think they were paid to play? They really set the tone for a great weekend. I wish I would have gotten the name of the band. If you love bar food, Irish music and an ice cold beer, this your place.

    Went here for St. Patrick's weekend since it was walking distance from our hotel, by far the best Fish & Chips I've had. The bartender was nice and service was on point. Loved the acoustic music of Ashley that night covering all the 90s rock music I enjoy. Can't wait to come back!

    My friends and I were looking for a place to grab some food and drinks before heading to the queen mary dark harbor event. We decided to give this place a try. At the front of the entrance there was a sign that says, grab a menu and find a seat. We came here on a Saturday evening around 5pm. Our server took our order once we were seated. Two of my friends and I had the fish and chips and my other friend had the pub burger. The fish and chips was okay. The tartar sauce didn't have much flavor. Very bland in my opinion which made the fish and chips alright. The fish was good but nothing special. I do have to say our server was great. Brought our drinks quickly. Overall this place was okay.

    Rolled in on a Saturday night with my girl to catch the SC game and run through their Halloween cocktail list, and we had a great time. Service (5 stars for Louie) Huge shoutout to LOUIE behind the bar dialed in all night, never missed a beat, and kept the vibe fun without ever letting our glasses run dry. Absolute pro. Drinks Kicked things off in true Irish pub fashion with a couple Irish Car Bombs, then dove into the themed cocktails * Poisoned Apple Martini -- best of the night for me it was crisp, seasonal, and balanced. * Vampire Kiss -- also good, festive without being too sweet. Closed the loop with another Car Bomb because...tradition. Atmosphere Classic pub energy with plenty of game day buzz, and once the live music started the place really came alive. Good crowd, lively but friendly perfect for posting up at the bar, watching the game, and soaking in the scene. Bottom Line A strong spot to grab a drink, catch a vibe, and enjoy some themed fun it's a solid 4 stars.

    Came here for lunch during Day #1 of my conference across the street. I ordered the Half and Half, the Guinness BBQ Burger and Champ. The beer is always yummy (big Guinness Fan!) the burger was juicy and the BBQ sauce was yummy. I just wished there were more sauce (I like a lot). The champ was super yummy and it added flavor to the already yummy mashed potatoes. Next time I'm in Long Beach, I know where to go. I love my Irish Pubs. Also, they had live music The wait from sitting to getting my drink order was decent but I assumed my sitting spot was slightly hidden.

    We've been to the Auld Dubliner a couple times, when we visit family in LB. The food has been good, we enjoy the beverages, and live music. It's a fun spot to go with a group!

    Shepherds Pie 10/10
    Denise P.

    Overall good experience. They definitely do things differently here. Our server seemed overwhelmed. I want to say she was probably the only one on the floor taking orders. Came on a Tuesday night before going to see a play/musical. I noticed they had a large group of people there for Trivia night. Although she seemed overwhelmed she handled it very well. The Shepherds Pie was a 7/10. Tasted like a shepherds pie. Nothing special about it. Hit the spot though. The Fish and Chips was a 6/10. Would have liked more meat. Would probably not order this again. I'm not going to shift blame on our server. She was busy. I felt they should have had more servers on the floor or at least helped her when they noticed how busy she got. We waited some time to get greeted. Thereafter, we waited long to get her attention to order a second drink. The food service on the other hand was fast. Like, a little too fast. I was wondering how they cooked these dishes that fast. Most likely why they were a bit lacking flavor.

    A pretty solid pub right outside the Long Beach convention center! Our party went out for a lunch during our visit and we all enjoyed our time here!! It was pretty funny how everyone got the fish and chips aside from myself, but I have a personal tradition of always ordering the shepherds pie whenever my family goes out to a dine in pub. It's my soul food and I'm always curious to see how the different houses do it! While portioned small, the shepherds pie was mighty, super filling and yet light on the palette! You could definitely taste the Guinness mixture in the ground beef! I shared some fish and chips with my boyfriend and the fish was super savory! Not my usual go to order so I was definitely impressed! Between the great food and excellent service by the waiting staff, we'll be sure to be back if we stop by Long Beach again!

    This spot is right across from the convention center so very convenient if you are there. There are so many chains nearby because of the outlet shops so this is a good alternative. Server was great and food was pretty good. They had a DJ on Friday night and they have happy hour specials. Definitely looks like an authentic Irish pub inside.

    Smooth perfect Guinness
    Tom P.

    Unexpected positive experience here; it's by the pike outlets so my expectations were set pretty low - but this is an authentic Irish bar with great bar plates and a fine Guinness pour. Bartender super friendly and made great recommendations.. if you're into Irish taverns you must try it !

    THE BLIND DONKEY IS NOT SAFE FOR TRANS PEOPLE…read more Last night (6/28) between 10-11pm, my trans boyfriend was followed into the men's bathroom by a security guard who started aggressively yelling at them for using the "wrong" bathroom. The security guard asked extremely inappropriate questions like "aren't you a lady?" and "what bathroom do you usually use?". Anytime my boyfriend responded, he yelled more and threatened to kick him out. This was a deeply upsetting situation. We were there for a friend's birthday and we left immediately after the incident. We definitely will NOT be returning to the Blind Donkey. We also suggest our queer and trans friends and community avoid this place too! The Blind Donkey needs to do better with educating and welcoming people of all genders. For good karaoke in a queer & trans friendly place, we recommend Silver Fox!

Fast forward to this past weekend for the USA World Cup game. We originally were planning on attending the street party that was happening on Pine Ave in downtown for the game. But when we arrived, there was a massive line just to get in. Just from the looks of it, the line didn't seemed to move and the game was starting. That's how we ended up here. The bar is just off the promenade in downtown. Clearly, there was no way we're waiting in the line for the street party. Instead, we remembered and seen this place. They too were showing the game so we walked in. There was a good amount of people on the patio area which they also had a television. Inside was a bit more mellow but it was picking up. With this bar, we got to sit down and enjoy the game with a nice cold beer. Happy hour was going on so they were having specials on drinks. Within minutes, it was starting to get packed as everyone was doing the same thing. Instead of waiting in line and the game was starting, this place was a better option. A nice open vibe bar. Plenty of seating inside as well as the outside patio which was pretty big as well. The ladies behind the bar were amazing. Busy as they were trying to take care of everything and everyone. Drink specials did sound nice but we opted for the happy hour beer. Bar area was quite roomy with communal tables as well a private table. Bar seating was great as the television was right in-front of you. The tufted leather seats, leather high top seats give it that cigar lounge. A cool spot right in the heart of downtown Long Beach. They didn't serve food but was informed that hat someone was serving classic hot dog and burger out front. Having walked in and enjoying this place, it was worth it. Also one of the bartender that worked at another place we've been to also worked here. The whole place was nice and greatly enjoyed. Will be back for sure.
