There wasn't live entertainment, just karaoke, which is offered in many places downtown for no cover. It was also not posted which, from my experience in Atlanta, they always post that there is a cover outside. Just feels scummy. It's a very average bar that offers literally nothing special. There is no great view, the service is the same as any bar, it doesn't even have a nice decor; there is no reason to be charging an entrance fee. Enjoyed the visit but will not return.

Also the place is kind of big and they also have a stage for the live bands. The bands that played that day were pretty rad I think all of them were local bands. I think it's great that this place supports local bands. I really like that they had collection of skateboards on wall. Addtionally I would've given this place a 5 star but they don't serve mixed drinks only beer which is a bummer for me. So I didn't get to drink because of that and also one of the reasons we left. They also had a cover charge which was at a decent price. Furthermore if y'all are looking for chill place I recommend trying this place out.

What is special is it is just very laid back .. a place you can settle in .. and enjoy the atmosphere or truly amazing and talented entertainment that is offered. Many acts that play here go on to be be well known signed acts. I can't say enough about the quality of the live music in a nice, intimate place where you can truly appreciate and interact with the performers. Food is basic but well prepared .. don't expect knock your socks off but decent and filling. They have a really wide variety of beer -- something for everyone. Beer prices have remained low and very affordable over the years I have enjoyed Down Home. Also a great place to meet and talk to people in town. I have ended up sharing a table with strangers and a pitcher many times. So if you are new to town this is a great place to meet new people and just enjoy. Everyone needs to try this place with live music of a kind that you enjoy. It is hard to not feel right at home here!!!

There's not really any food but they do have plenty of games. If you are not drinking at all and playing designated driver, This place does have non-alcoholic options for you and yes I mean 0.0% non alcoholic options. I didn't catch the bartender's name but he was absolutely friendly and social with us the entire time! There was nobody there on a Tuesday but he was a pleasure chatting with. Highly recommend visiting this bar if you get a chance!

When did it become a crime to be a foreigner & why would anyone want to walk around with their passport just to visit a college bar ? It was an extremely tacky and disappointing experience especially since I loved tiptons when I was a college student at ETSU. I will not fight to spend my hard earned money anywhere therefore I will not be visiting a bar that discriminates against my nationality and identification. Very unwelcoming and disheartening... so much for supporting local businesses. I am a world traveler and have NEVER being denied entry anywhere else in the world. Pathetic.

This place was close to where we were having dinner at so we walked over to the place. Just walk in to the building and someone will greet you and they'll take you behind the bookshelf where you can't seat yourself. We took some of the low seats. Nothing wrong with that we were greeted with water so we had to decide what we wanted to drink. Highly recommend that you use your phone since the menus are QR code. Prices were pretty fair for the speakeasy. Restrooms were absolutely clean. A few things I noticed that kind of dropped a few Stars was that the Speakeasy was absolutely cold!It had to be about 60° inside. It took a long time for us to be served. Lastly, I noticed some of the staff drinking behind the bar. People here are absolutely friendly , you got all walks of life here and everyone here is having a great time. The staff are dressed for the occasion and it does feel intimate being inside this speakeasy. Overall, I wouldn't mind coming back here again. After leaving, you leave through the back door. I do believe that the prices were a bit High compared to other visits of speakeasies I've been to but that's more so on Tennessee's part for the way they Factor checks.

I asked an old friend to meet me there for lunch. Albeit a quieter time of the day, the decor and stage indicated a much livelier crowd in the evening. Note to self, go back on a Friday night. Our waitress Gatsby was a pure delight. She was prompt with both our drinks and food. We asked a lot of questions and through them all she smiled and left us satisfied with her replies. Now, if you're craving Irish beer or whiskey, they'll be your new favorite stop. We had Guinness, of course, but also, Harps and Smithwicks. Not much of a whiskey person but I did see their selections. We both had the fish and chips. Good and fresh. They have lots of Irish dishes so return trips are on the schedule. I can only imagine a full place and good music playing! What a fun place. Thanks Gatsby! You were the best.

This place is the real deal with Bangers and Mash, Shepherds Pie, Guinness Stew and more. I settled on Fish and Chips (actually cottage fries) that came with wee ramekins of tartar sauce and tangy, sweet coleslaw, and a slice of lemon. Instead of citrus, I chose to liberally sprinkle malt vinegar on my battered cod and potatoes. Yum! The best fish and chips I ever enjoyed was at a diner near the California coast, but Mulligan's is pretty darn close. Although the pub has a hearty beer and cocktail selection, I ordered a soft drink which cost only $2.00 and came with a refill. Now that's a bargain! Since only a few other tables were occupied, the spouse and I got first-class service from a witty Irishman (I think) named Ciaran. (sp?) Later that evening, the pub was hosting live entertainment, and on some nights there's karaoke and other events. If I ever find myself in Johnson City again, I'll be sure to swing by.
