Maybe it's not the most authentic Irish bar in town, but don't tell that to the crowds of students who flock here.

Casual bar and restaurant  5 Star Rating - World class

The Irish pub is a very casual bar/restaurant. The drinks are overpriced and they typically have drink specials. The food is reasonable priced as well. They have a 'Poor Richards' lunch special everyday that features a soup and sandwich for $3.95, and it's usually very good. It's one of the best and most affordable lunches in Center City.

Great place to hang out with friends 5 Star Rating - World class

I'm a big fan of Irish Pub on Thurs, Fri, or Sat nights. The fact my friends live only a few blocks away doesn't hurt, but there are plenty of other bars in the area and we often choose to go to Irish. It's what you'd expect from an Irish pub - plenty of beer, Irish-looking decor, bar food, and young professionals. But Irish seems friendlier than most somehow. They often have good specials ($2 drafts), and the "chicken thumbs" are in fact more meaty than their finger-shaped compatriots. There are multiple areas for whether you want to dine, chat with a few friends, or hang out at the bar. While they sometimes charge a $2 cover, you really can't complain about such a measley fee for entrance to such a fun place.

Pros: friendly atmosphere, good drink specials
Cons: none

Rude Bartenders 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

Rudest bartenders. Not just one of them, but they were all very rude and unwilling to help. Left after 10 minutes, will not be returning.

Laid Back Fun 5 Star Rating - World class

The Irish Pub is a great night out. The staff is great, food is reasonably priced and good, and drink specials run constantly. You can go for happy hour, stay till Midnight, and still have plenty of money left in your pocket to make a Wawa trip. Great place to watch sporting events. A nice crowd - good-looking girls on the weekends.

Pros: Inexpensive, Good Menu
