Finn MacCool’s Irish Public House — Restaurant in Seattle

So many obviously fake reviews... Went here St. Patrick's day 2014, a Monday. This place is a DISGRACE! We were told by the manager collecting cash at the door that $10ea cover was being collected due to the Irish band that was playing. We paid up and went in to order. Kid you not $18.50 for a shot of house whiskey and plastic 10oz cup of draft Guinness! This must be one of those "deals" the other reviews are talking about! Went towards the stage to find 3 guys dressed in green shamrocks just coming in from the brake. They sang 2 Beatles songs, a Rolling Stones song, then (I am not joking!) No Baby No Cry, followed by more oldie reproduction rock of dubious quality. The crowd looked bored, nursing their green beer and texting with bored expressions.

I went back to the cashbox manager to ask what part of Ireland these songs were written in. She just smiled and started talking about where I could or could not set my mostly full drink. Thinking that she must not have heard me I repeated - "This is an Irish Pub on St. Patrick's Day, what are those monkeys playing and what did I pay the cover for?" Her reply, "Ohh so you are a racist now?" WTF?! I left my almost full $40 drink on her holly counter and walked out the door.

Overpriced, Irish only in name, Boring and...

The girl behind the bar has got to be the rudest person I’ve come across in a long time. I visited with 4 friends, and from the moment we came in she made it clear we were an inconvenience for her. One of my friends waited at the bar 10+ minutes just to put an order in. It was not busy. When she brought our food over to us, she didn’t say a word and had the most miserable look on her face, I said ‘excuse me’ as she walked away, she turned to me and said ‘no I’m busy’. I went up to the bar to say ‘I’m sorry to inconvenience you but I wanted to ask for some condiments’ and she points to the service counter and said ‘go get them yourself’. I’ve been a server for many years of my life and even under the worst pressure have never acted that way. That being said, the food was...
