Historic building with early 20th century decor creates an authentic Irish pub vibe. Live Celtic music with bagpipes fills the space, adding to the warm and friendly atmosphere. The pub offers an intimate setting popular for its live performances and phenomenal fish and chips.

An old downtown building gives the pub a cool old school vibe with plenty of history to check out. A Celtic music group plays at a volume that keeps the atmosphere lively but not overwhelming.
