SHANAHANS BAR & GRILL — Restaurant in Town of Smithtown

Decided to stop here after a hike in the Bluff. I specifically asked the waitress (bartender) If my dog was allowed to sit on the outdoor patio with us. She initially tells me no, and then follows me outside to ask me what kind of dog it is. I proceeded to tell her that she is a cane Corso and she says oh I had a cane Corso… You can bring her in as long as you sit in the corner and she’s on leash I say no problem. Thank you. she then comes back out with the owner and tells me she’s not allowed on the property because this is a dining establishment. Meanwhile, there are older adult sitting outside, smoking cigarettes openly in this “dining room “, as the owner called it. Then ask me, are you sure your dog is a cane Corso and not a pitbull? I said yeah she’s a pitbull. I didn’t think there was a difference. She says those dogs have certain traits everyone knows about and your dog looked at me a certain way I told her she is discriminating against my dog, and the reason I told her Cane Corso was because of this exact situation and the stigmatism with pitbulls. My dog has never done any harm to anyone and is the biggest(literal) baby in the world. Definitely will not be back here. Shame on you and your unprofessionally. They basically kicked us out because they were being discriminatory against her...

This place is like half a mile away from the middle school I attended as a young delinquent. I always came up with crazy ideas of the things that happened in this property behind those closed doors. Were there naked ladies? Fights? Little puppies and free candy? Sadly I moved away before I was old enough to find out for myself. Here we are, 15 years later, and I'm sitting in Shanahan's with people I graduated high school with 10 years ago. Can't say I miss living here, but if I did live here, I may come here every once in a while to prepare for my DUI that I'm about to get. I didn't have the food, but I hear their $20 all you can eat wing bar is awesome. Walking up to the front door I feel like I'm less in Long Island, and closer to Alabama or Florida and am waiting for an alligator to jump out of the woods and carry my wife away. In any case, everyone here was having a good time, the employees were kind and understanding even though my drug addict friend was trying to roll a blunt on their back patio. Some things just...

Location: 5/10 Service: 0/10 extremely understaffed resulting on very poor service. Food:0/10 Didn’t get to try it 🤷🏻‍♀️

We waited an hour and a half to be helped but never happened.

There were two bartenders a gentleman and a lady. Both of them were rude. The lady bartender was high on drugs. When I arrived I saw a customer either buying or selling drugs (I let it go bc it’s a pub, I was hungry and my friend really wanted to give them a shot due to the farm animals in the back) this particular customer was very friendly with the bartender who was visibly high. When I approached the bar to pay our drinks after waiting for too long I was at first deliberately ignored and then asked to wait yet again, when I politely refused I was given my check in a very poor manner (basically thrown at me) and the intoxicated bartender raised her voice, got defensive and claimed she didn’t see our table (we were sitting next to the bar) I was uncomfortable to say the least. Very tacky..

Definitely DO...
