Karinne CourtneyMarch 15, 2014I love this place for a Guinness before a movie ....... they are not hiring enough people to help the huge crowd of people they get in there....either open another one close by or hire more people
Washington PostAugust 1, 2014Need to Know: McGinty's hosts a pub quiz every Monday at 8 and all musicians are invited to bring their instruments to the traditional Irish jam session on Tuesdays. Read more
Dave LepkowskiOctober 29, 2017Enjoyed having some interesting and awesome food here. Staff is very friendly and helpful as well as super informative By The Way.
Bil GarnerSeptember 28, 2013Shepherd's pie...comes with broccoli and cauliflower carrot side. Fantastic. Careful! Don't burn your tongue! Comes to you hotter then magma...- The fisherman’s stew and fish and chips are great! There’s really nothing on the menu that isn’t delicious though.
Seth VermaatenOctober 18, 2018Been here a couple times after a series of screening at AFI decent bar food/beer
Andrew CohenDecember 30, 2012The super hot bartender with the lions jersey is awesome!!! She knows her drinks, manages the bar well, takes care of her customers and holds great conversations!!
Usually stop here before a concert at the Fillmore. Great Happy Hour prices on bar food
One of the few places in the area open after 10pm. Good environment for the over-college-aged crowd.
Brett SaladinoAugust 8, 2013The mussels are FANTASTIC! Ask for a spoon so you can eat the sauce like soup!- Enjoyed happy hour drinks and tasty hot and fresh bar food
Their food menu is actually very good. The burgers and the guiness stew are great.
BasJune 22, 2014Wings are surprisingly good. Better late night grub than getting a burger from a fast food death joint.
Charlie WilsonApril 7, 2013Great Mushroom soup however it looks like Juliette below had a little too much to drink.
Katy CliffDecember 21, 2013Underwhelmed by the bloody mary bar. No Worcester sauce and no real horseradish only a mayo blend... Great for a sandwiche but for a drink not so much... It hangs in oily clumps in the liquid... Yuck.
They have Harpoon IPA. Which is a ok...Also great selection of whiskey. Good fish and chips.
DC Social Sports ClubFebruary 29, 2012Sign up for Wednesday night cornhole leagues hosted by DC Social Sports Club. It's a fun happy hour with a competitive twist. Games begin at 7:00pm. Read more
Try the irish breakfast! Also cheap mimosas and bloody marys at brunch!
The fish & chips here rule! Dont miss the cheaper happy hour version too :)
- Josh HutchinsonMarch 1, 2011Bangers n mash with a kilkenny is awesome. Ask for jerry as a bartender.
Every time I come here I am blown away by how great the food is.
Yeah, it's a bar, too, but I went for the food, which is quite tasty! Read more
Greg StooksberryMarch 23, 2010Shepard's pie was excellent. Wash It down with a cold draft and the night is going pretty good.
Wandering JuanMarch 16, 2012of coruse theres an irish place in bethesda, what kind of question is that???
Mark KrawczykSeptember 28, 2010It's a decent enough bar, but a too corporate-looking for my tastes. For more interesting digs try The Quarry House nearby.

"Been eating here for years and seen many changes in ownership. The pizza though is pretty spectacular. And it's half priced on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays too. Really nice people."
