Dive bars have a unique character of their own. Mad Murphy 's is no different and I love it here. A friend of ours said she loved the wings here so my fiancée and I decided to give them a try! Atmosphere/Appearance: Right off of South Main Street is this gem with its own parking lot out back and not 1, but 2 separate decks where you can hang outside or have a smoke. Inside you have the very divey feel, just without the pool table. Lol. There is a Touchtunes juke box so you can take over the music if you must. The bar rail is long and there are plenty of other tables to convene at with your compadres. Service: Kelly is pretty awesome. She pretty much took care of the entire restaurant all on...
So this has become one of my Wing Wednesday spots! You what happens when I fall in love, right? Yep, the $5 for 10 wings just turned into $6 for 10 wings. 60 cents a wing won't make me stop coming here, it just figures that once I get addicted they up the price one me. My favorite wings are the honey hot, but I've heard great things about the dry rubs too. But, I love buffalo wings, I want sauce and spice so if you ask me, the dry rubs are boring and just taste like dry fried chicken, not amazing juicy saucy wings the way they should be, unbreaded and amazing!! Kelly is awesome! I'm happy to see her when she's in on a Wednesday when I stop by! She takes great care of us and brings up pitcher...
Mad Murphy's is a cozy Irish pub located just off the busy Main Street in Middletown. The bar spans two floors, and I've consistently been pleased with the friendly and attentive staff during each of my visits with my band. The owner is down-to-earth and easy to chat with, making for a welcoming atmosphere. It’s definitely one of the go-to spots in the area for St. Patrick's Day celebrations. I attended this year's festivities, and it was lively with a great turnout. They even featured a bagpiper during the daytime performances. The menu included a tasty Corned Beef and Cabbage dinner along with several St. Patrick's Day specials—who could resist green beer and Irish car bombs? Despite being...
I frequently visit this place on Wednesdays for wing night and it's fantastic! It never feels overly crowded, which is surprising for a wing night, and it has a charming Irish bar vibe. They offer a great variety of flavors for a smaller establishment (at least 10), but my personal favorite is definitely the buffalo garlic. The staff is incredibly friendly and they always recognize me when I come in, even though I only stop by once or twice a month. They generously provide plenty of bleu cheese dressing and celery to accompany the wings. While I haven’t tried them myself, my friends rave about the Irish nachos too. The prices on wing night are very reasonable, even if you order a few pitcher...

So a group of about 20 of us show up to this bar to party for about 1 last hr!!! We show up at around 12:05 and the bartender starts screaming LAST CALL !!! Not sure if she and the bartender just wanted to leave early but we just wanted to enjoy with the bride and groom and were willing to spend good money in an hr!!! Not sure if they were racist either or just used to being rude, loud and with a very arrogant attitude... but they kicked us out cause the BOUNCER decided we couldn 't get a beer for the bride at 12:30!!!! So after insulting us and literally forcing us to leave we left. We came to visit this place for the ocasion and will never ever come back again!!! This was the worst place I...
Great place. Went with my friends on a Wednesday night to drink some beers and play pool, not crowded at all. It does seem a little small unfortunately, but still a very cool setup with the outdoor patio, bar, and upstairs area. The upstairs pool area is spacious and has a good tv for watching sports while you play. Draft beers are $5 which isn't bad in my book. The wings were delicious , the cheese fries were decent, would definitely go back for wings again. The bartender was fairly nice, and the owner came around upstairs and talked to us for a while, seemed like a nice guy. I do love that they had live local music entertainment even on a Wednesday night, made for a great atmosphere.
I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. The bartender, Grace, was very unprofessional. I ordered a vodka cranberry, and there was hardly any vodka in it. Additionally, she overcharged my boyfriend by more than $20 for his order! It seemed like she was drunk, and she completely ignored us for 45 minutes. I highly recommend avoiding this place if you're looking for good service and drinks. It was a complete waste of time!
I haven't been here since around 2007, but I really enjoyed my last visit. This place is a genuine local hangout with a friendly vibe and hosts live music from local bands. It’s a charming little spot, and if you're a local who stops by, there's a good chance you'll run into someone you haven't seen since high school—even if it’s been 25 years!

I think their drinks are terrible. I visited on a Saturday for karaoke, and while the atmosphere was fun, the drinks were disappointing. I ordered a whiskey sour, and it tasted like just one shot of whiskey mixed with watered-down sour mix. It was awful! It was the worst drink I've ever had—I couldn't even finish it.
Interesting biker bar. Friendly staff and locals. The beers and shots make the rounds often. Extra parking in rear.
