A cold fresh Guinness, a warm smile, and fiery redhead named Kelsey. The wings are the true litmus test of any bar/pub. They also pass this test!! Come down and place a dollar on…..well anywhere!! The biggest Moscow mule I’ve ever seen!!!

Wow what a great fun place. Staff was freeking great and the food was wonderful. Great selection of beers and wish I was having another one. I think this is a hidden gem downtown and when I come back I’m going to find it again. Thank you. Had a blast.

Dalton and Rylee were my peeps tonight. Fantastic service. They make a great atmosphere. Greet you when you arrive. Tentative to your drink and food needs (i wasn’t hungry). Relatively slow weekday night but the crew kept busy cleaning and never didn’t have the time for customers. Talkative and not overbearing. Great place to go.

I live in Grand Island, Nebraska and we have a McKinney’s here. It’s fantastic. The one in Lincoln, not so much. We were basically the only 4 people in the restaurant. The waitress just yelled at us from the bar half the time. I ordered chicken strips which looked undercooked but tasted fine. The fries were a little undercooked, but okay. My wife’s sandwich was good, but the cottage cheese had no flavor. My friend got the fish and chips and barely ate any of it because it was over seasoned. His wife got the cheese and broccoli soup and it was basically room temp. She only had a few bites of it. As for the atmosphere, it wasn’t for me. There are dollar bills taped up all over the walls with writing on them. Some people might enjoy that, I didn’t. It just felt cluttered and unfriendly to me. We will not be going back to this location.

Sydney and Dalton were literally the best bartenders. They handled so many people on Halloween and were the most professional people. They were so nice, gave exceptional service, and I will be coming back because of them. 10/10 experience because of them!!!

Was in the area and wanted to try a new restaurant while catching up with my best friend. As we walked by we saw the menu and thought it looked really good. We did outdoor dining as it was pretty warm outside that day and they had the heated lantern going. Waitress was nice. I cannot remember he name but she had medium length brunette hair. We had spinach dip as a appetizer and it was great for our meals we had a mac and cheese and a sandwich (forgot what kind she ordered) and then drinks were disaronno ginger ale and a flavored moscow mule. Everything tasted great! I would recommend do anyone in the area.

Was absolutely stoked for an Irish pub that made their Shepherd’s Pie with lamb. That is, until I got the first one. Majority of the bowl was potatoes with a miniscule amount of meat & veggies. Bartender agreed that it was a crazy amount of potatoes, so he asked the cooks to make another one… 2nd one arrived, EXACTLY…LIKE…THE…FIRST…ONE… Almost all potatoes… Sad that an Irish pub can’t make a half decent traditional Irish dish.

Yesterday afternoon, we were celebrating our daughter’s 21st birthday with 14 family members and friends. Unfortunately, our experience at McKinney’s was far from pleasant. Upon entering, the bartender was extremely rude. We asked if there were any shot specials to help us celebrate, and she curtly responded, “We don’t do anything for this type of party.” We weren’t requesting anything exclusive, just looking for a suggestion for a shot to enjoy while celebrating at your pub.
Later, Lauryn, the birthday girl, asked if she could put her $1 on the wall, a common tradition at your bar. Again, the bartender acted as though we were an inconvenience, making it clear she wasn’t happy to have us there at all.
We shared this experience with “Group Therapy” bike company, and we strongly recommended they skip McKinney’s on future outings.
We’re very disappointed by how we were treated and expected much better customer service.

Delicious Irish stew and great service. Loved how the bar is decorated with one dollar bills that patrons can leave as a memento.
