Popped in on a Sat night ($10 cover), and found a spot upstairs where we could still see the band that night (Kitchen Parti, they were AMAZING, check them out). Our server wasn't too bothered by much, pretty indifferent and probably not wanting to deal with anything but drink orders, but we wanted to try the local fare, so we ordered the chowder (STUFFED with seafood, creamy, flavorful), the cod tongues (nice batter, texture is an acquired taste), and the fish and chips (batter is a little thick, but fish is meaty and tender). Was surprised there weren't more local ciders on tap, there's one on the menu, but the server said they only had cans of Strongbow. Overall, authentic pub experience, that was really elevated by Kitchen Parti. The pub is located conveniently on George Street if you're staying nearby.

Everything I was hoping for in an Irish pub. Excellent music, story telling, nice ambiance, good food and laughter! I did quite a bit of search to find the right place for my appetite amongst the music venues and I am happy that I invested the time to do that. I made a reservation for a table close to the stage but I suppose that may have not been required. When we arrived, a group of musicians were jamming and playing around a large table before Fergus O’Byrne started playing his songs. Purely folklore and wonderfully performed. For the meal, I had the Veggie quesadilla which was a good portion and tasty and YellowBelly Pale Ale. It was a memorable night for sure!

Great live singer and atmosphere is ok. Unfortunately, staff aren't very friendly as I was expecting, comparing to other restaurants we've been in St John's. I ask why there's no Kilkenny and Guinness in a supposed to be a famous Irish pub and all I got to was a "I don't know and and a shoulder shrug" We also book Friday night, which supposed to be the salt beef junkies performing and looks like it change to someone else. Which is not a big deal. But I'm really disappointed with not having Guinness and Kilkenny. . Also not worth paying extra $8 + tax for a stage view. Looks like everyone inside the restaurant have stage view while we were there.

I highly recommend O'Reilly's if you want a more traditional East Coast music experience on George Street. Nothing against any of the other bars, but there's something about the ocean air that makes me want to hear fiddle, mandolin, and sing-alongs... this place delivers just that. A ton of pride and focus on local talent, and I've never seen anything but smiles on the faces of customers here. Full respect to their new post-covid staff that seem to have been able to successfully manage the George Street Fest crowd. Drinks were served quickly, and were strong. Everything about this experience was top-notch.

I was here for the "cocktail hour" of a wedding, and liked it so much I came back the next day to grab take out too. We had everything from cod bites to bacon wrapped scallops to meatballs and everything in between. Food was excellent and service was great. The salt n vinegar chip crusted cod bites were the big winner among our crowd. Highly recommended. I also had a moose burger! Excellently cooked and a great assortment of toppings. Will be back to try the moose nachos too the next time I'm in St. John's. Best place on the George St. strip.
