The Kent House Irish Pub — Restaurant in Maryland

Went there around 5 on the Friday of St Patrick’s Day weekend and it was virtually empty, which we found odd being that it’s the only Irish pub in Towson. They didn’t have booster seats or high chairs for our 2 year old which was no big deal. Bartender/server was very nice. We ordered fish and chips and a Reuben but they were somehow out of chips? At 5 pm on a Friday? Kind of bizarre. Food ended up taking a literal hour. Server apologized multiple times and took an entree off our check, but it didn’t make any sense since the place was very empty. We didn’t even eat the fish since it was grey and looked very odd. Reuben was good. It’s a shame since the bar itself was really cool. We may give it another chance - drinks only.

Lastly, when I got up from sitting down, I noticed a dead cockroach next to me. I had no idea that was there until we left. Not coming back. Biggest focus of the place is the bar side and...

Your classic "Irish" pub. Good selection of beers on tap and plenty of different whiskys. Not the cheapest drinks but they always have two beers on tap that are $3, which is a pretty good deal.

Not a huge space, so it gets pretty crowded on the weekends, but it's a pretty chill spot to come and grab a drink on the weekdays. Typical Irish pub decor with Guiness pictures, old wooden barrels, etc. The lighting is a little on the dark side.

Food was surprisingly good. Decent price for your some pub fare, mostly sausages and Irish bar food, but it's good for what it is.

It's an overall nice bar. Probably one of my...
