"Great live music, tasty food deserving a 9 out of 10 rating, and welcoming staff delivering outstanding service."
I have been a loyal customer of Ballydoyle Irish Pub for a long time, but lately, my experiences haven’t been very positive, mainly due to slow service. The staff are friendly and professional, but there have been times when only one or two servers were working. Despite this, management doesn’t seem to limit the number of tables in use, which puts a lot of strain on the servers and the kitchen, which also seems understaffed. During my last visit, it took 45 minutes to receive our drinks and meal, and the order was incorrect. The servers did their best to keep us informed, but there wasn’t much they could do to fix things. It was clear they were overwhelmed. I hope management considers reduci...
Ballydoyle Irish Pub was unexpectedly quiet on a Sunday afternoon. I had a perfectly chilled Guinness, which was a highlight, but the corned beef in my rye sandwich tasted and looked like leftovers—just fatty pieces haphazardly placed on toasted bread. The green beans were overloaded with garlic powder, which was also a letdown. Next time I’m in the mood for Irish food, I’ll be trying somewhere else.
Oh, the memories! Or perhaps the lack thereof, haha! This is the BEST neighborhood bar, featuring exceptional bartenders and quick waitstaff. Although it has been several years since my last visit, the fact that I still have an old matchbox from there and often reminisce about their live music and the countless great times spent within those walls speaks volumes. I miss you, Ballydoyle!
The Bangers and Mash was excellent and served in generous portions. I also tried their amaretto-whiskey cocktail but found it lacking in flavor; it was quite weak and watery. The prices felt a bit steep for an Irish pub, and the service was pretty slow, although I understand they were busy. On the plus side, the live music was a lovely touch.

Stay for the music, but enjoy the food as well. A group of us went for a live music event and arrived early to dine. We started with the caprese flatbread appetizer, which was delicious and perfectly sized.
We visited in June and had a fantastic experience. Our waitress, Lurk W, was excellent, and the manager, Patrick, was very attentive and made sure we were well taken care of.
The food was good, and the decor definitely captured the theme of an Irish pub. However, the service could have been improved; the servers seemed a bit tired and overwhelmed.
