About

Bar: Full barBest nights: Thu, Fri, Sat

Reviewers say they've been coming here for over 40 years. The Irish Pub has been around since the 1970s, making it an Atlantic City institution that sells more beer than any other bar in the city. This divey spot offers good basic American food, seafood, and a casual atmosphere. It's dog friendly and has outdoor seating, plus a full bar. It's not for everyone — one guest noted it's not luxurious — but regulars love its no-frills charm.

The best nights to visit are Thursday through Saturday, when the crowd picks up. If you're staying at the Inn upstairs, you'll have easy access to the bar all day. The Pub is open 24 hours, which means you can grab a beer or a meal at any time. You won't find fancy decor, but you'll get friendly service and cold drinks.

From the community

“Unique is Good”

The Irish Pub has always been a solid choice. We stayed at the Inn during Miss America Weekend and enjoyed it. It's a friendly and cozy spot, but it may not suit everyone. If you're after luxury accommodations, you should look elsewhere.

“Great Food and Prices!”

A long-standing pub for nearly 50 years serving Irish cuisine and solid American basics along with seafood, with daily lunch and dinner specials. I've been a customer for over 40 years, and the bartenders and waitresses are excellent.
