Drunken Irish fun all year round. Wait in line to climb the narrow wooden staircase to the top floor where popular Irish drinking songs have people singing, clapping and stomping their feet. Read more

St. Patty's Day is just around the corner, so expect higher traffic at "Irish" places as green beer flows and partying commences. Read more

Drinks are very weak and overpriced so you’ll want to stick to beer here. Rent out the second floor for parties and groups. :) Weekends can be crowded with lots of security, but not many bartenders .

Jake Smith

If it is super crowded , the back patio is a nice spot to get some fresh air and relax.

Anthony Soave

Main floor dance floor was packed. Rooftop packed. Always a good time here!!

Daniel Rose

On game nights they have a limited menu, specifically no traditional wings .

Tonya Rayman

Nothing but getting drunk on overpriced drinks! But how about 5 bouncers jumping my son after he left?! If you read reviews on other sites you'll see this is an ongoing problem with this establishment

Katie Bonnivier

Wings ! You can make your own sauce combo! U of M hockey preface in the joe headquarters!

Go to Old Shillelagh and go to the roof-top. They have a DJ and bar up there.

Nightlife is great

They don't clean their beer lines . Both my Oktoberfest, and my wife's Cherry Wheat have a foul taste.
