    Food here is good but drinks are great and this is the reason for my frequent visit to this place. Excellent place for a loud musical night in Fairfax. There is no place better than Auld Shebeen.

    Love the employees. Sometimes the live music is a bit too loud. The apple cobbler is amazing, so is the soft pretzel and spinach dip!

    Still one of the best places in Fairfax to meet for drinks. Excellent pour on the Guinness, and the chicken nachos are fantastic

    Pretty cool place but the cigarette smoke coming from downstairs kills it. Wish they would fix that

    Nothing, place was not even busy... Rude bouncer/host, running manager like crazy, dumb waitress and rude, took for ever for everything. Chicken tenders over cooked and super dry. Too much light!

    Half price irish food on Mondays. Guiness stew or shepard's pie are good bets.

    Food is fairly mediocre. Decent beer selection. Would not recommend the fish and chips nor the corned beef and colcannon.
