There's an outdoor patio for sipping and supping alfresco and a smoky bar featuring live Irish music.

If you enjoy good food, get there pasties (pronounced pah sties, unlike the things that cover your b00bs!) We stopped in there at the beginning of our night of bar hopping, and it is a busy place. Don't come here late in the evening if you're looking for a quiet neighborhood bar. The whole bar was hoppin, people (meaning our crowd of 10-15) were in the middle of the bar signing to the music....fun times. If you go in a large group, they designate a server to you right away and she takes care of you the whole night. Staff is great, and we made lots of friends - so the place is great too!
Pros: food, people, service - bathrooms were pretty clean!
Cons: parking (it's pike place!), cover - but it's only $5 and keeps the crowd to a minimum

I came here with a group of 4 a few fridays ago - it was average at best. I had high hopes, as one of the girls we were with is Irish and raves about the place. It was crowded, but we found an empty table pretty quickly. Unfortunately, it was right next to the stage (and speaker), so we could barely converse with one another. Our waitress did come and take orders pretty quickly, but as it got more crowded it took forever to get her back over. In addition, as the night wore on, the place was getting more and more crowded, and the speakers were getting louder and louder. There were only two real saving graces: 1. A band called the Corner Bhoys performed. They were okay, but one of them was called Liam Gallagher, and yes, they did "Wonderwall"; and 2. There were two cute girls in the corner whom we attempted to guess their age. Fun.
Pros: Nice looking, Liam Gallagher
Cons: Too loud, service a bit slow
