    Irish Stew
    Jeff H.

    Irish Stew was fantastic. Mashed potatoes were definitely home made. Father-in-law had Shephards Pie the night before and couldn't stop saying how good it was. Son had fish-n-chips and he said it was some of the best he has had. Great place and the service was just as amazing as the food. If we lived in the Toronto area we would be here once a week. Great place.

    I am giving this pub 3.5 stars. Way back in January 2015, I had a hectic time training a new employee and greeting to guests from Sweden at my workplace. During that first week, we all went to The Irish Shebeen, which is a short drive from the office, for lunch. I like pub food. I always have. I don't know why. I ordered bangers and mash. The bangers were tasty and done properly. The mash was wonderful in the gravy. I didn't like all the sauteed onions, though. There were too many for my liking. Still, the dish was yummy. Service was speedy and pleasant. I need to return and sample other items on the menu. Hopefully, that will be sometime this year! (60)

    Smithwick's and a burger with bacon on it. What could go wrong?

    What a great pub! A most friendly and attentive bartender (the great Hope)who even after a few visits, will remember what you like to drink and have a pint of Smithwick's on the bar before you can even take your coat off. You can get that pint late into the night most nights. If you are staying in Mississauga hotels, it's a much more convivial atmosphere that your hotel room. But don't order the burgers. The burgerwill be a dry, hard dark thing in a bun. A hockey puck is the closest comparison. You can't fault the Irish Shebeen, though. It's Canada law. My bartender apologizes. We have to make all our burgers medium well, she says. So, be wiser. Order anything but burgers. The fries, for example vere excellent. The single best entree may be the chicken tenders. They are only an appetizer but are served with a full order of fries so it is more than a meal. 5 big pieces of sweet white meat fried so crispy you can't talk at the same time on the phone. I had leftovers for the next day. The Shebeen has a whole separate room that looks like a lobby of a hotel from a grander time. With tables, WiFi and everyone avoid it it for the more boisterous bar, it is a perfect place to spend the evening if you have a hundred emails to answer I was served by Jei, the consummate host, who catered to every need. My first Negroni, missing Campari, was happily replaced with a gin and tonic. "No problem, sir." In most place, seeking a quiet place to work also means you'll be forgotten and you'll have to jump up and down to get the waiter's attention. But Jei took excellent care of me. It was as if I had a butler. Never abandoned. Drinks to dinner without ever wondering if everyone had left town. You should relax after a tough day at work at the Irish Shebeen. It is the friendliest neighborhood pub.

    Wings and fries

    I'm not sure if the waitress was having a bad day or not but she was not very welcoming when my friends and I came in. We wanted to sit on the patio since they had the A/C blasting inside and asked her to seat us as there was no hostess. Her demeanor was not very nice. She seemed very rushed. My friends and I weren't impressed with her. We sat down and I asked for a drink list and she didn't want to give me the list. I am a visual person and like to read menus or see pictures. She just asked if I wanted wine or something like that. I just chose a pinot grigio. We got wings, fries, and chicken strips. They were all pretty tasty. Wings were done well and were decently sized. As we were leaving when we were done we saw that the drink menu was at the POS station right by the door... She could have just brought it for me. It would not have impeded her by any means. I probably wouldn't come back here on my own free will.

    I have been here twice in hopes my first visit was just a bad fluke and my second would show that this is a great place to eat. It didn't work out and it's not a great place to eat. Both times the food was mediocre. Example: I ordered a pulled pork sandwich. It was dry and not flavorful. there was very little sauce on it. What made it worst to the point I lost my appetite completely was there was a massive fat ball in the middle of it. I was so grossed out I couldn't eat anymore. Both my husband and friend who were with me also didn't like their dishes (burger with fries and pasta). The overall space of the restaurant is not well thought out. Its very tight and uncomfortable. I know they want to have lots of seats for customers but its to the point you cant even walk to the bathroom without bumping into someone or a chair. They should have kept to the booth design at least that way there would be walking room for customers and servers. The live music would be nice to hear but both times they had different bands that seems to play way to loud for the space they are in. You cant even talk to the person your are sitting beside because it is so loud. Oddly enough you cant really hear the person singing the band is playing that loud, just so you have an understanding of the level of noise. Overall I will not be going back and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Which is sad because this place had potential.

    While in town for work, I was able to walk to this place! Food was good and the staff was great!

    This was my second visit for dinner while I was in town! I walked to another option at the hotels recommendation, but decided to walk back to this place. Also, if you show your room key, you get a 10% discount!! Two thumbs up!!

    So this place was a Honey's Beestro, then it was some crap pasta bar briefly. Now it's a good Irish pub. I came for drinks with some co-workers on a Friday after work. The place is pretty nice. Fully renovated with exposed brick on most of the walls. The space is broken up into a few areas so you could easily have a private function and be separated from the rest of the bar. The beer selection isn't super great. Keith's, Stella, etc. on tap. It would be nice if there was a little more variety. The food is pretty standard pub fair. We ordered some appetizers which consisted of chicken wings and a mixed plate. The plate had jalapeño poppers, mozza sticks, potato skins, cheese toast, and spring rolls. The wings were good, the mixed plate was a little hit and miss. Hit: potato skins. Miss: jalapeño poppers. Our server was great to begin with but as we stopped ordering refills of our beers she soon forgot about us. She disappeared right when we were looking to clear up our tab. Overall I would come here again as it is a better option than most of the bars in the area. Unless you live or work in the area though, there's no reason to make a special trip to check this place out.

    Our server was adorable, incredibly friendly, and did a great job despite seeming relatively new…read more Unfortunately, the food itself was mediocre at best. When I gently let our server know that my eggs were missing the cheese I requested--and simply asked that I not be charged for it--another server named Meera stepped in and became quite rude. She actually argued with me, claiming it was "impossible" for the kitchen to make a mistake because the head chef has been there for 20 years. While the location is convenient to the airport and local hotels, the service from that staff member ruined the experience. If you are looking for a better meal nearby, I'd recommend checking out Chuck's Roadhouse instead.

    I came in for an early dinner on a Friday night. Well, it wasn't that early, I got there like…read more545pm. So maybe that is early.... I dunno. There was no wait to be seated as there were not many people there at all. There were several large screen TV on the walls showing various sports programming. I started with the Feta Bruschetta which was, in my opinion, the best thing I had tonight. I also had a Prosciutto Blue Cheese Burger and fries. It smelled really good! Taste wise it was okay, not great. The blue cheese really came through. The burger itself was more over done than I like, although to be fair I wasn't asked how I wanted it cooked and it may be local rules here require it to be more on the well done side but end result is a dry-ish burger patty. It didn't have any sauce or anything like that either it that would have helped. But this really is more of a "my preference" type of situation as opposed to something not being made well. It came with battered fries which were good. Everyone working there tonight was friendly and helpful. I'd probably return but not before trying some of the other places nearby.
