Bad Service

by gagirl83

I don't recommend this place for dinner. Our service was very slow! My date mis-calculated the tip (he meant to put more) and the waitress came back and asked for more money!! She was very rude and not a very good waitress to begin with. If you are going to the James Joyce, eat dinner beforehand!

• Pros: cheap eats
• Cons: rude service

An honest-to-goodness Irish pub, without any pretense.

In Short
A small, well-worn bar is surrounded by cozy tables in this dimly lit retreat. The crowd offers a mix of grad-student types and older patrons, and the decor is nostalgic without feeling cheesy. Live music, Gaelic football league and rugby action on the tube attract a crowd of regulars, as does the solid selection of stouts and brews on tap. The menu is heavy on pub fare, including a hearty, true-to-form shepherd's pie.

The Best!

by dmp1110

This is such a great pub. The food is great, the service is great, the crowd is great, the atmosphere is great. Great live music on selected nights. Indoor/outdoor. Nothing negative whatsoever to say about the James Joyce!

• Pros: Staff, Service, Crowd
