    Warm pretzel
    Dona F.

    Parking galore behind this bar/restaurant Was here for a band. Nice big room with huge bar and address to outdoor patio. Good sound Had a few snacks in the front room before the show. Pretzel was warm and soft. Perfect for the munchies. Ruben egg roll was just as amazing. Comes with a few diff mustards for dipping

    My husband and I went there last night, 2/4/21, for the Harry Potter pop up, and it was great. They enforced masks and having their customers be 6 feet apart. They also had barriers in between their customers. The waitstaff had gloves and masks on the whole time.

    I've been coming to the nutty since 2013. A place to come once the night has started and you need a good dance place to shake your butt with your friends. I went for Santa Con 2019 and this place changed my whole view. I know most people in Long Island don't know much about international identification but as a bouncer and a business you should know valid id. I was asked to leave after presenting a valid US government issued work permit, fully scanable and Real Act ID certified. I have a normal drivers license but I had lost it and in the interim I was using my work permit as ID, as I've done many times over the years at many other bars. When presented with my work permit, instead of the bouncer saying they've never seen a work permit before, he looked confused and passed it to the bouncer next to him. This bouncer then proceeded to tell me this was not a valid form of ID. When I asked how come, I was told to present an alternative ID. If I had an alternative ID I would have brought it, I only brought cash to minimize my spending but offered a photograph of my now lost drivers license to prove it was me. The bouncer proceeds to tell me that won't do, my ID was not valid government ID and I needed something else to corroborate that I was who I said I was. I said, "sir, this is a valid government it has the department of homeland security contact on it". He said I needed something else with my name. I left the line and came back. I said I have a digital insurance card with my name and info. He said that was not good enough. I needed to enter this bar in order to get my wrist bands for Santa Con, I said sir this has homeland securities' info on it and IT'S SCANABLE. At this point I'm at a loss. He said no you can't come in. So I said I'd like a refund of my prepurchased tix. He told me he would send a manage out but I had to leave. It's raining and this is the only place with an awning to wait. I said I'll wait here for your manager. He said I was trespassing and then confiscated my ID! A legal government ID. I was now upset and almost crying. I need my refund as well as my ID to go to all the other bars in Farmingdale for the trail. I told him he couldn't do that and he said "then call the cops". Lucky for me my friend was with me to witness the whole ordeal and called on my behalf. After telling them I called the police they accused me of being uncooperative and trespassing. I was told, you have to leave you're on private property. Sir all you have to do is issue my refund and give me back my LEGAL ID and I'll leave. I was told I was rude and disrespectful because I was asking for more information on why my ID wasn't valid. I was told I was being uncooperative because I called the police--like they told me to. I was then told he wouldn't give back my ID and he and all the other bouncers will speak to the cops. I'm 27 years old with a legal form of identification, I said and I want either my wrist band or my money back. He said he had reason to believe I wasn't who I said I was. How convenient. Before it was because it wasn't valid government ID now it's because they NOW feel I'm not who my ID says I am. I said that's not what you said before. This is a valid government ID. To which he said it isn't. I was enraged, "why, because this was an ID you've never handled before??" I was told he's seen plenty of ID like mine before. So I asked so why is it not valid?? and I never got a response. Only after calling the cops and waiting outside for them was I able to get my ID back because they realized their error. Which could have been solved had they just SCANNED my ID in the first place! Honestly the worst way to start what should be a great day of fun because you don't know what constitutes a basic ID! Train your staff better.

    Karaoke night mixed With live bands and acoustic guitar players, Wednesdays throughout the summer.

    Best live music in a very competitive bar town, Farmingdale; Best bar food, creative, delicious and nicely priced anywhere on Long Island; Best place to go for a different theme night every single day of the week. Be here Mondays, stay through Wednesdays, rock out on Friday and Saturday and watch your favorite football team play on Sunday. You'll be a regular as soon as you show up!

    I have only been to Nutty Irishman a few times and only to hear selected live bands. There stage area is in the most rear of the bar with plenty of room to dance or just stand and watch. There is a bar off to the right of the band besides the bar as you walk into the front of the pub. They also have great prices for beers after 10pm usually. My close friends band was playing for the first time at this pub and I wanted to be there to support him. They performed from 8pm to 10pm and the late night band came on from 10pm till 12 midnight. We stood in the back of the dance floor by the sound system booth. The sound system seemed adequate, but could have been better if my friends band had their own sound person.

    Easy to find on Main Street

    I like this place. Even though I have only been to the nutty Irishman a few times and they've all been with an event I really enjoyed this establishment. You walk in to a big bar with plenty of seating. A nice place... big and bright with the big windows. You go to the back room which is much larger with a bigger bar and big area for dancing with a stage for the band. The band has always been playing in this place and it's definitely rocking. They had a buffet area set up with people serving the food and there's still plenty of room for people to get up mingle and dance. Now let's get to the bar part of this review. Plenty on tap to choose from just about anything I've looked for I've always found. The food is always good. I've had some great barbecue chicken, sausage and pepper, and ziti. It was good tasty and hot. Clearly this is a fun place to throw party. What I like about the nutty Irishman is that there is enough light so you can see what you're doing and it's dark enough to be comfortable. Did I mention the bar outback with a nice big seating area. This is a really cool place that has it all. If you're in the village of Farmingdale come by I'm sure you'll be happy that you stopped in for a few minutes sat and enjoyed a cold one.

    9.10.17 The Nutty Irishman, Main Street, Farmingdale Village, New York Hey friends, It's great to say hi again. This Saturday afternoon I was bar hopping with my Irish friend Brein in Farmingdale Village. I saw the Nutty Irishman Pub on Main Street, with the American and Irish Flags waving atop. I thought of The 2 Brothers, standing side by side. As my friend Brien from Ireland had reminded me. He said, we stand side-by-side as brothers, America and Ireland. I agreed as we continued to toast the friendship. He spoke about how the Irish built New York City and joked about the well-known photo of all the mostly Irish construction workers sitting on the I-beam. Inside the Nutty at the bar, I could see right away that this was a place where Guinness was the champion of beers here. Great I'm digging a Guinness Black and Tan, let's make it with an "On Tap" Shock Top. Cool! I wanted to try the food here too, so I ordered the Giants hot, spicy buffalo wings and the bacon cheese fries. The Appetizers came out quickly, the Giant wings nice and big with plenty of sauce. They could have had more spice asI'm really used to hot stuff, but they were still very good. The Bacon cheese fries appetizer featured standard shoe strings with a cheese whiz topping and real bacon pieces. With cool ranch topping, this was a good pickin bar plate. I'll have to stop back here for the nightlife. Hope I'm not too old for this rocking Crowd, but hey I'm in the cool generation that invented Rock. I enjoyed my lunch and Brews at the Nutty Irishman this afternoon, I felt at home with the Irish Decor and the rich wood finishes. Looking forward to my next visit with my friends here. Cheers! JIM D.

    Excellent service from the bartender. I Came in around 6 for a steak and a beer. I was served pretty quickly but the steak itself was unseasoned, bland and I asked for rare and instead I got medium. I didn't complain I just ate as I was in no mood to cause an uproar, tipped, and left. The Mac and cheese was a disaster as it was a microwave special. Wings were pretty tasty. All in all I'd return but just for beers and wings, nothing else.

    Sunday football! What a great day it is. I'm no stranger to "The Nutty Irishman" But it's my first time at this location. We were the first to arrive and right away I was pleased. TV's everywhere and plenty of comfortable seating. They had sport playing already with sound. That's great! A lot of places play music up until the game. The waitress, Nikki, was truly incredible. She was on point and friendly. We asked for the TV to be played at our booth and she took care of it immediately. Once we ordered we sat and waited for the wings. I wasn't planning on them being so good, I mean i know them for being a club. But when those masterful wings came out, I was amazed. They instantly became a top five wing spot. Not to mention the fifty cent wing special. It made for a great deal. At half time it was time for a burger. I settled on something simple. But when it came out, it was anything but. The burger was juicy and the bacon was crunchy. They also used plenty of cheese (did I ever mention I love cheese), so you know I was happy. I truly couldn't believe how good all the food was. Also I should add, the Giants took care of business (Go Big Blue!). I will definitely be back. I had a amazing food and better service. Only thing I need now is Giants Super Bowl.

    Great venue, good food. Was there last night to hear Lovesong. Good size stage, nice sized dance floor, two bars inside and one outside. Ladies, clean restroom! Parking can be a bit tough but it's possible. Go early, walk around a really nice area, grab a bite and enjoy the show!

    The Villager Farmingdale, NY…read more@thevillagerfarmingdale The @thevillagerfarmingdale is part of @lfrg_ny and a great spot to grab a delicious bite to eat and drink of your choice. We loved everything we had, especially the buffalo chicken egg rolls and the Philly cheesesteak empanadas! They make them in house daily and you can tell! The cocktails were fresh, colorful, and fun! The service here was professional and welcoming. Their menu offers an array of large plates, burgers, tacos, and shareables. They have 24 seasonal, rotating draft beers and some amazing handcrafted cocktails. They also have a full mocktail menu if you are partaking in dry January! Come stop by!

    Got together with some friends on the island for a relaxing dinner…read more We were told this is a nice, fun and relaxing atmosphere. That's pretty much correct. The night was bingo night but that aside we had a good time. You can eat both inside and outside. The outside offers seating in front and back. I'm a big outdoor seating person so we ate outdoors. For the most part, everyone enjoyed their dinner. The hamburgers were good. The fried pickles were good, if you like those. The Parmesan fries were also popular, but not my thing. What caught my eye was the berry goat cheese salad. Mixed greens, berries, caramel pecans, goat cheese, and their red vinaigrette was excellent. I thought I'd throw some protein on there so added the steak. The steak was not very good so I ended up eating very little of it. Not quite sure what the taste was that the steak was giving off but not something to my liking. Otherwise, this is a terrific salad. The vegetables refresh, they gave you a ton of variety of berries, and the overall size was terrific.

    My family and I visited Paddy's Loft on July 3rd, and we had such a lovely experience…read more We've eaten here before and always enjoyed the food, so we decided to come back, and we're so glad we did. The restaurant has a cozy, rustic Irish charm that makes you feel comfortable the moment you walk in. Our server was wonderful--friendly, attentive, professional, and genuinely pleasant to talk with. We also loved her accent, which added to the authentic Irish pub atmosphere. The food arrived very quickly and was served piping hot, clearly fresh from the kitchen. Everything our party of three ordered was delicious, and everyone left happy. What really stood out to us was how kind and accommodating the staff were to our 90-year-old father. They made him feel welcome and took extra care to ensure he was comfortable. At the end of the meal, we believe the owner stopped by to ask how everything was, which was a thoughtful touch. The staff also allowed our father to use the floor-level exit and kindly held the door for us when we left. It's becoming harder and harder to find restaurants that combine great food with genuinely warm hospitality, but Paddy's Loft delivered both. We left feeling appreciated as customers and are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended!

    Great local, irish cottage pub that features some rather good food and drinks…read more Been here a few times and always pleased with everything. The French onion soup aswell as the potato soup is very good. Their wings and burgers are also very good, as is the Ruben. They have a bar side and a restaurant side, both of which is nice.

    Finally a date night with NO KIDS!!…read more As I've reviewed in the past, The Villager is a great place for parents who like good beer and good food but also have to bring their kids with them lol. However, if you can steal away for two hours, this is also a great date spot. The music was from my generation so I was confused why it was so loud? This was my first clue that I am officially old. But that is a me problem not them. We always order the wings (top 5 on the entire island) and the Gouda fries are unparalleled! My husband ordered the gyro. Bold move ordering a cultural dish from non Greeks. He said it was really good! I like that it came on a round instead of a pocket. It gave a quesadillas feel. His only suggestion was to put the siracha on the side since that's not a traditional gyro ingredient. On another bold move, I ordered the Ramen and added braised short ribs. Wow!! I don't know who they have cooking in the back making these authentic meals but this was some of the best Ramen I've ever had. The flavors were so good and the eggs was cooked to perfection (not too runny but not over cooked). Our waitress was very nice as well. It was busy but I never felt like we had to wait long for her attention. 10/10 as always! Reliable top quality with an ever changing beer menu.
