What players say

Great Irish pub with authentic Irish food. I had the lamb stew. I went back for the full Irish breakfast the next day - delicious. What a treat! It's a spacious comfy pub with lots of TVs to watch football and soccer and pool tables at the back. The service was great, with a nice relaxed atmosphere.

★★★★★ Alan, Jan 2026

Had lunch there. The food was great: Whiskey burger and corned beef sliders. The service was great and the pub is huge. A billiard room with ample seating, with an impressive main bar and dining, entertaining area. Definitely going to return with friends in tow. Highly recommend.

★★★★★ Richard, Mar 2026

Very cool Irish pub in DT Santa Barbara. Parking took a little time, but I'm not a local so, there's probably better options. Good was excellent, staff was superb . Several pool tables, and a real cool Irish vibe
