Brennan's Shebeen Irish Bar and Grill — Restaurant in Bridgeport

Stopped in here based on the reviews for Happy Hour on a Saturday at around 5 pm. Happy Hour is every day from 3-6. Beer, wine and signature cocktails are $2 off. The Oysters are a buck and clams are 75 cents. We ordered a dozen oysters and a dozen clams that came out in a 2 tiered platter. They were perfectly chilled and delicious and accompanied by the best cocktail sauce and vinegar and a cabbage slaw that was also great. We ordered the Pineapple infused vodka martinis to start and they were smooth with a nice foam top. We saw another cocktail on the menu called Fire. It's a pineapple/jalepeno infused tequila on the rocks...a fabulous drink if you like spicy. Finally we ordered the crabcakes appetizer. They were perfect. Crispy on the outside, tender and moist and perfectly seasoned on the inside. They had a balsamic glaze and a yummy tarter sauce and a small tomato cucumber salad. The ambiance is great. Theres plenty of seating in the bar area with lots of comfortable bar seats and additional hi tops. Happy hour specials are only in the bar area. The place became very lively between 5 and 6 but the acoustics are great and not too loud for conversation. We will definitely be back here again soon! ...

Stopped in for brunch on a cold, rainy Sunday in March. Was delighted to find a roaring fire, three piece jazz ensemble and an authentic Irish breakfast! Food was delicious, service was friendly. If we lived in the area, we'd...

Great local dive.... not a dive but doesn't look like a food place from the street. Pub may be more accurate but has lots more U.S. bar elements than an Irish pub. Food is a surprise and staff is great. Can't judge it...
