The Scene
When Brian O'Neill decided to craft his pub in Ireland, ship it to America and assemble it in Rice Village, he wasn't just redefining the import process--he was redefining the Irish pub experience in America. A profound redwood storefront announces this pub from afar. Inside, bric-a-brac detailing the Emerald Isle's rich history is displayed everywhere in museum-like fashion.
The Draw
With 15 draft beers, 30 bottled beers and enough whiskey to flood Houston, O'Neill knows that to successfully re-create the Irish pub experience, you need lots and lots of alcohol. O'Neill also knows food. Expect more than the typical finger food offered by most pubs. The delicious citrus chicken is unrivaled in its presentation and flavor. Whether it's happy hour, brunch or a weekend night, the bar's always packed with an electrified mid-20s crowd that loves to drink, eat and be merry.

Equally loud (but better) music than the Baker's St. Pub across the street. Haphazard seating and terrible flow/layout make any place an akward place, even the bar. The staff seems unconcerned that you exist, not that I would expect much better out of the joint. They have drinks, there's always that. All in all, a very average place surrounded by equal-or-better joints.

This is hands down the worst bar in the village! Don't even think of ordering food here! You will wait for ever for a server to come to your table, only to order food that never arrives or is incorrect or unacceptable to eat. The service is HORRIBLE from the servers down to the managers! They don't even care that they are delivering horrible food and service!!!!Almost any bar in the village is better than this place!!! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

You got your chair pulled from underneath you? Wow that is really really rude but your a dumbazz cause i was there and you deserved it. Next time the bouncers tell you to finish your drink and start heading out,not once,not twice,but 3 times,i suggest you do just that! Lucky you only got your chair pulled,cause if you come to the bar i work at in the village,it will be alot worse! Houstonjoe your a f'ing moron that simple! Oh my god,you know the bartenders names,dude you are my role model,i want to be just like you besides eatting the deck and breaking my glass. Brian O'Neills ya'll are great,from the bartenders and esp the bouncers!
