For context, I am Irish and have spent extensive time in Ireland, including Galway, where I’ve had the well-known shepherd’s pie at The Front Door Pub, which is widely regarded as one of the best traditional versions. The shepherd’s pie here is genuinely excellent and is actually better. Perfectly seasoned, balanced, and clearly made with skill and care. The portion size was generous, the texture was correct, and it tasted like it was made by someone who understands the dish. I personally complimented the chef, because that level of execution deserves recognition. I would recommend coming here for the shepherd’s pie alone.
Prices overall are high, especially for Everett. I’m used to these price points in cities like Seattle or Vancouver, but it felt surprising for this location. Several items were also out of stock, and substitutions were not allowed due to food cost constraints – even when I offered to pay extra. I completely understand food costs fluctuate, but allowing substitutions with a clear upcharge would improve flexibility and customer experience.
The potato skins were very dry. The server explained that dryness is intentional and traditional, and while I respect that explanation, it made them less enjoyable for me personally. This was my first time trying them, so this may be a matter of personal preference rather than execution. Soda bread is divine.
I was also surprised that many available menu items were not Irish dishes. For an Irish pub, I expected a stronger and more consistent representation of Irish cuisine, especially when some traditional options were unavailable.
Service was polite, friendly, and well-intentioned. The server was very talkative and attentive when I was the only guest, though at times overly present while I was working on my computer and had mentioned I was doing homework. Once additional guests arrived, however, attention shifted and it became difficult to get assistance without calling him over. He was kind and respectful throughout – this felt more like a balance and awareness issue rather than a professionalism problem.
Overall, the shepherd’s pie demonstrates real culinary skill and authenticity, and the kitchen clearly has talent. However, menu accuracy, substitution flexibility, pricing alignment, and service pacing could be improved. I would absolutely return for the shepherd’s pie, and I hope to see the rest of the experience rise to the same standard.
We arrived and were seen pretty fast for our orders in a Saturday night, but the good stops there.
We ordered beer and a few good Irish whiskeys. The bartender made our drinks and they sat there for 10 minutes- I many times almost went up to take them ourselves. The beer was barely cooler than room temperature, with a cold glass that made the temperature gradient bizzare. The whiskey we ordered was poured incredibly low, for $12-15 whiskies it was a complete ripoff.
We did not want to order food after that but decided to give them a chance by ordering some simple fries. It came out about 20min later seemingly freshly made, but they were very mediocre- super flour battered (they should mention this on the menu for people with gluten issues) and over cooked inside.
We had to ask for water with our check, despite needing refills for over an hour.
Its a cool vibe and I have historically liked the irishmen, but I hope that they are able to address some real issues they have with quality of food and drinks provided.
Been coming here for years and won’t be returning, good money for bad food and service
I tried the Cho-Ice shot and the Cool-Aid drink, and both were a hit! The Cho-Ice shot was smooth and packed with a mint chocolate flavor, while the Cool-Aid drink was refreshing, sweet, and perfect for sipping. The bar offers a great selection of drinks, from creative cocktails to classics, ensuring there’s something for everyone.
One of the highlights of my visit was meeting the owner—a genuinely fun and down-to-earth guy who clearly cares about his customers and creating a great experience. The staff were equally impressive—attentive, friendly, and focused on making sure everyone is having a good time.
The Irishman Bar isn’t just a place to grab drinks; it’s a spot where people come together to enjoy good company, great drinks, and top-notch service. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick drink or staying for a long night, it’s absolutely worth a visit. I’ll definitely be back!
