Art of the Review
This little pub was really cute! We visited two days before Halloween, and they had it decorated so fun with tons of festive Halloween decorations. We were greeted right away, and our server was very friendly and welcoming.
They have a nice beer selection, and we started with the fried pickles appetizer — they were great! Just your standard pickle chips, but the breading had good flavor, and the spicy ranch dip was excellent.
For our main dishes, we split a hot chicken sandwich and an order of their mac & cheese. The chicken sandwich had great flavor, a fresh-tasting sauce, and a really good bun. The fries that came with it were average, but still good. The mac & cheese came out piping hot in a skillet — creamy, flavorful, and topped with perfectly toasted breadcrumbs.
Service was quick and attentive; our table was cleared promptly. Overall, I’d definitely recommend eating here if you’re in Salem!

Went for lunch had a few apps. Food was good and as expected for fried pub food. Visited here both during the day and at night. Had a great time at night though seeing it during the day is kind of off putting. Table was dirty and cushions were ripped and badly stained.

Me and my little boy stopped by for lunch right when they opened the doors for the day. We sat at the window and watched the rain and passerby. He had a delicious hotdog and fries. I had the Shepherd’s Pie Rangoons, which were very good and the Beef Stew. The stew was so tasty and perfect for the cold and rainy weather.
We actually met the owner at breakfast down the street at Red’s Sandwich Shop. We talked briefly and let him know about the great experience we had at his pub.
Can’t wait to return!

I came here because all the restaurant’s we wanted to try were full and had a wait time of 45 to 60 min and im happy that was the case as O’Neills staff were so nice and food was amazing!!! They had themed cocktails at a great price and was a kid friendly pub. I don’t know if I would come back to salem but if I do, im coming back to O’Neills!!

A classic Irish pub vibe with a focus on entertainment. It’s a great destination if you’re looking for live music and a solid plate of nachos to share with the table.
They also have some amazing fries and a Ruben worth checking out.
This is a great place to go with friends after a long week at work.

It’s an Irish pub. Priced for Salem, but what else could it be. Great food in that sense of food you would expect in an Irish place (meat and potatoes). Excellent drink selection. Wonderful staff. Best part was the staff. I had a Brogan burger. No lie. That’s what it’s called on the menu.

It was very busy when we arrived so had to wait outside for a seat but it was worth the wait!

The authentic Irish pub vibe you’ve been looking for. Irish nachos here are delicious. The buffalo wings and fried pickles are also pretty good, but you really come here for the vibe. Prices are good and the staff are great. It’s a great hang.
