Service, food and atmosphere were phenomenal. Our server was so personable and made some amazing suggestions! The food was so good it felt like such a homey meal - everything is made from scratch in kitchen. If you are a fan of French onion soup, GET IT! It is baked in an onion and is hands down one of the best ones I’ve ever had in my life. The patio space is amazing and i highly recommend sitting out there on a nice day. Definitely a place worth trying if you’re ever in Dallas.

In town for a business expo, we had dinner here three out of four nights, which tells you how good it is. The place is clean and comfortable with a great down-to-earth Irish vibe. Nice bar and plenty of places to sit. The food is incredible, we had the best Scotch eggs we've ever had... anywhere. Highly recommend those and the corned beef and cabbage rolls appetizer, the fish and chips, and the bangers and mash. Beer is excellent as well. Our server recommended the Black & Tan which was great, and the Black Velvet which was equally good. Our servers all three nights were fantastic. We had Kaelon for two nights and he was attentive and super friendly and full of suggestions on what to try. Karen served us on our last night there and she was great as well, super attentive and always checking on us to make sure we were okay and didn't need anything. In short, great place, great food, great service... would definitely swing by again next time we're in town.

Really nice place here. Service a little slow so we sat at the bar since there was no one at the door to greet us. I got the grilled cheese and tomato soup both of which were really good. Bread was very crispy and there were multiple cheese. There were 3 pieces of bread on this sandwich. Made it very hearty. My husband got a Reuben and it was a very good Reuben with a good amount of meat on the sandwich. Fries came with it for the side. Restrooms were stocked and well kept. We walked here from our hotel so I can’t speak on parking. All in all it was a good meal and we will be back.

I recently visited Patrick Kennedy Irish Pub, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. I started with their in-house tequila shots, paired with beer and breakfast a classic plate of chicken and waffles. The food was fantastic, but the true highlight of my visit was the bartender. As we chatted, I learned he had bartended across the country in various settings, including casinos. His expertise shone through when he suggested I try tequila with cinnamon and orange instead of the usual salt and lime. I gave it a shot and was blown away this combination gave the tequila a smooth, brandy-like feel that elevated the experience. Overall, great food, unique drinks, and exceptional service made this visit truly memorable. Highly recommend!

Walked in around 11 on a Saturday night, and the service was amazing. Food and drinks were good as well. Recommended this pub for anyone visiting the downtown Dallas area.

I tried the onion French soup, and it was served on an onion—never seen that before, as it's usually on bread. It was different, but the dish was small. I’ve been to Patrick Kennedy's several times, and the mussels are good, and the fish and fries are still my favorites on the menu. My buddy likes the breakfast with bangers, which is also served during the day. Prices have gone up, but it's still a good place for a Guinness at lunch. The vibe is good, and they show soccer matches, making it a fun spot with a lot of people at the bar. It's well-illuminated with good attention from the staff. It definitely needs music! Some traditional tunes would be awesome.

We stopped off at this Irish pub on the way back from our JFK walking tour in Deally Square and we were glad we did! They have a large drink menu and our server Evelyn was attentive and a joy! We particularly enjoyed the Scotch Eggs and Corned beef and Cabbage Rolls. Absolutely delicious! This is a large pub with lots of seating, good A/C and friendly patrons. We will definitely return!

Came here with a group of coworkers to celebrate a birthday and we just so happen to be in the mix of celebrating St. Patrick’s Day! They had a specialize menu just for the event and a plethora of activities the week leading to. They have a lengthy happy hour and we made sure to order food and drinks for our enjoyment. Our server was attentive and friendly! I ordered the Galway Bay Mussels and they’re made with a cream sauce. Definitely a different taste than what I’m used to but the mussels were fresh. I also ordered a few Green Tea Shots and Mar O’Ritas. The drinks were amazing and perfectly mixed! I was able to taste the Cheese Curds and Corned Beef and Cabbage Rolls and they were very tasty. Overall, we had a great time and it was a treat to be there for St. Patrick’s Day!
