We were in town for an appointment and decided to get lunch here since we enjoy Irish pub food. There is an outdoor patio for smokers and people with pets, and also indoor seating in booths and at the bar. Our server was Emily. My husband ordered starters: potato skins, bavarian pretzels, and mac&cheese eggrolls. I ordered a bowl of clam chowder and a roast beef cheddar sandwich. The potato skins and pretzels were ready within minutes and delicious 😋 the clam chowder was excellent with soft chunks of red potatoes. The sandwich arrived soon after, and the appetizers were so filling that we were only able to finish 1/3 of it - we took the rest to go. We also ordered 2 Cokes no ice and they were a bit flat. Other than semi-flat fountain drinks, the order was tasty and great. As a side note, my husband mentioned that the men's restroom was a bit odd that there were no dividers between the urinals, and they were too close to one another. As a 6 foot+ tall guy, he said he was lucky to be alone in the bathroom since it would be awkward to rub elbows with someone by mistake. The women's restroom was fine except for the 2nd stall that did not have a lock, so I used a different one. The tavern lost 1 star on atmosphere due to the bathrooms. Overall, the ambience is a bustling Irish tavern, hardwood flooring, and cozy booth seating. There was 90s rock music playing throughout our meal, so someone is a fan of that. We didn't mind as we grew up listening to Nirvana and NIN on the radio. The bar itself was neat, and there seemed to be a lot of interesting beers on tap. We were fortunate to get there before the lunch / pre-dinner crowd, so there were only about 5 tables occupied and 2 bar guests. When we were paying for our order, we realized that our mac&cheese eggrolls didn't arrive and they weren't on our bill, so we will definitely be back to order n taste those :) Total cost was around $77 with a healthy cash tip. Excellent price for the generous amount / fresh quality of food and friendly customer service👍. Thanks for a good foodie experience.

Photos are today trying to eat, multiple tables smoking like disgraceful lack of willpower stench mills. Could not even enjoy my food that im paying to eat in fresh air because these people can not control themselves long enough to sit and have consideration for others. The area shows huge disgusting amount of cigarette butts, garbage, and some sort of blue white syring that could easily be swept up and properly thrown away so animals, birds, other do not eat it, get into it, and have no pride in the appearance of the area? All of these business should ve ashamed. Also maybe reporyed to city. However, if there is anything positive to say , i will say it. Food is good majority of time, as long as I order the same thing al the time. I am specific on how I like food prepared, presentation, consistency. I always now order the BLT, extra crispy , extra iettuce tomato side mayo. Extra crispy usually removes most all of the grease and rye toasts best. I can not stand saturated by butter or especially grease. So this is consistent. The pretzels ate good, soft and if you mix regular mustard with beer cheese it is great mix of taste on nice warm soft pretzels. I love to sit outside except I would appreciate people who could control their addictions just long enough to sit and enjoy food without letting nicotine to over run their brain so others can not even enjoy the outside fresh air without stench of gross cigarettes. I mean REALLY...GET SOME WILLPOWER. or use a non scented vape smoke and then take small reasonably size puffs not like you have to inhale enough vape to fill your lungs like it's your last dying wish. Many places are stopping smoking AND vaping all together in open air places. It is not just smokers rights to contaminate the entire area. When that happens, our rights are taken along with our health. And you need clean oxygen to live. You do NOT need cigarettes or nicotine to live. Have some consideration. More so. Have some pride in yourself by not allowing something like that control your every action, desyroy your HOME, CAR, ANIMALS AND PEOPLES HEALTH AND HAPPINESS. YES this does have to do with this restaurant and other areas regardless, I hope this restaurant will consider stopping all together, smoking of cigars or cigarettes or pipes, tobacco that burns or smells. They also completely trash the environment with non biodegradable cigarettes butts on the ground!. I heard people just today remark about this. Concerned about dogs getting these poisons in their mouths, sk8n, stepping on them, ruining the environment, animals, birds, etc outside coming in contact with cigarettes button, looks like disgusting trash all around the eating areas. Just gross and unacceptable. Also unacceptable is throwing paper, cuos, beer, bottles, trash on the ground, customers, by passers, and homeless. Visiting the area nor homelessness is ZERO TOLERANCE ZERO EXCUSE TO BE DIRTY, TRASH ANY AREA , BE DISRESPECTFUL. You do not have to be rich, well off, educated to be clean, pick up, throw away garbage and have respect for other living beings .. The beginning....🥸

McK's is and Irish restaurant And what an AMAZING restaurant this is NOW, before I get to the review, There are so many festivals going on and McKs Is right smack in the middle of them..... AWESOME The food is not just your typical Irish dishes it certainly a mix of American meals When you walk in there is a sign that reads: walk in and sit yourself (there is a funny sign that says: Help wanted all can apply but the IRISH Funny huh? I laughed more because Mark is Irish There are both high and low booths and tables and at the bar seating ***Unless you're EXTREMELY tall they have a booth that is just right for you*** Mark is 5'10 and it comes to his chest. My cute height is 5'1 (when I stand up straight) it comes just below my chin AND my feet do not reach the floor The " regular couple" were smiley at us waiting to see how long we will sit there before moving Thanks a lot Diane and Paul Oh my lord, what a great Inexpensive dishes that offer On Mondays they have a rib special for only $13.99 (As of this writing) Apparently, they also have different specials on different days. I can not remember what they were now but I know on Sundays they $6.00 hamburgers Wait until you see my pictures below They "RIBS" we decided to have were awesome and our meals came out quickly I tell you this is a fun restaurant. Not only are the servers (Thank you Arley) happy and friendly, the patrons are also. We befriended those (little stinkers) Diane and Paul who proceeded to be excellent new found friends ( I think they are but maybe they were being polite BLAAH) (They didn't sneak out the back door so I think all is good... Again, BLAAH) They have TVs with games going on so if you're a fan of hanging out at the bar will have a great time there If you follow my reviews (and please do because I'm awesome and I'm not a paid reviewer) is a HIGHLY must recommendion for you visit to downtown Tourists you will have an AMAZING experience. Thank you McK's for your hospitality WE are NOW regulars too

I’ve been here a few times and the last was by far the most interesting experience. Usually service is a bit slow for how busy it is but yesterday was one for the books. There were 6 of us, all 6 ordered drinks and 4 ordered food. Drinks came quickly for 2 people in our group, the food came for the 4 that ordered but 4 still had not received their beers. When asked about the beers, the waitress didn’t find it odd that everyone had food and 2 people had beers but the other 4 did not have their beers. She went up to the bar, grabbed a beer that was there, brought it over and asked us to try it to figure out what beer it was. She also did not find this odd that she brought a random beer over to try. When questioned that she wanted us to blindly sample this beer for her, her response was, “well yea, you can keep it either way though.” Well I would hope so after I sample it that you wouldn’t put it back on the counter to give to another customer but who knows with this one. The beer was incorrect and finally, 10 minutes after we received our food, we received the correct beers. Again, none of this seemed odd to our waitress. So if you’re going to this place, double check that they give you the correct drink order and be prepared to wait even when they’re half full.

Sunday Specials: $6.00 1/2 Pound Burgers and $1.00 Sides after 5pm. Excellent burger and fries. Had the homemade hot sauce delivered on the side for my burger. A nice hot jalapeño chili flavor. Very nice attentive service. Returned on Monday for: $13 Full Rack of Ribs with a side after 5pm. Excellent flavor. Full meaty rack is not too much fat. SHEPHERD’S PIE Ground beef mixed with corn, snap peas, and carrots topped with mashed potatoes, cheese, and gravy. Choice of one side. This was an excellent choice, dark brown peppery gravy. Overall, it's one of the best I have had. I loved the dark gravy. Outdoor seating is available. Features 42 beers on tap and about 175 types in bottle. Their current brews: Beach Street Blonde, 4.3%. Blonde Ale. Papa Bears Oatmeal Stout, 6.3%. Traditional Oatmeal Stout with hints of coffee and coco. Mck's Connors Irish Red, 5.2%. Irish red. Reddish copper color, malty flavor, and smooth. Blackberry Beach Street Blonde, 4.7%. Flagship Blonde Ale treated with Mango.

So usually a decent place to visit - Food has always been cooked well and flavorsome. Thursdays they do a build a burger special night - Fish and chips they give you one of the best portions in the area! Salads are really good - Just make sure to tell them what you want or how to customize things. They are very accommodating with substitutions where as most restaurants now a days are not anymore so its nice to see that style if serving to a customer. Atmosphere can be 50/50 at times due to the bar area and people just there to drunk so we usually sit outside when it's nice out due to its a nice view and feels much better. Don't expect a big desert menu anymore due to for some reason after years they got rid if the favorite cheesecake in a mason jar amongst other items - this is disappointing due to you can't just go for desert anymore.
