★★★★★ 5.0 Collin Whitlock · Dec 2025

Perhaps one of the most important gathering places for the Gainesville community. There are few establishments, if any, who prioritize creativity and sustainability of friendly and inclusive atmospheres than this iconic Irish Pub. They play host to a wide range of community events (dancing, storytelling, music, holiday celebrations, and more). The staff is kind, caring, and friendly. They celebrate local breweries as well as hard-to-find imports and serve delicious pub fare at reasonable prices. Gainesville is lucky to have them.

★★★★★ 5.0 Susan Hughes · Jul 2025

Relaxed atmosphere with a variety of drink options including non alcoholic options. A wonderful venue to watch live, local talent.

★★★★★ 5.0 Christopher Orsini · Nov 2024

Such a great place to stop in! Drinks are on point for sure, absolutely great beer selection. If you are down, always grab an underberg. Great atmosphere and bartenders!!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Eric Daff · Feb 2020

Very chill atmosphere with awesome drinks. Great variety of things to try. Staff was super friendly. Definitely recommend! They also have live music sometimes which is a lot of fun. The seasonal Vikings Blod Honey Wine was amazing!

★★★★★ 5.0 jason molidor · Nov 2022

The bill is tiny. It is friendly. They have a small selection of really great beers. They seem to have a lot more “art house” events if that’s what you’re looking for. . If you’re coming down to the fest they seem to host primarily outdoor acoustic events. And don’t worry they still had all your pbr deals.
