The Irish Colleen

Three stars is me being generous because:I want to love this place. And I keep coming back with high hopes. But it's been more than 3 months and they can't dial things in. The beer tap system they have will never allow them to pour a proper pint of Guinness. Running warm beer through a frat party cold plate ice cooler tap system? Then scooping the foam off the top?Seriously??? The food that isn't fried is good. Fried stuff is oily like they just plate it from the fryer without even a cursory shake... Shepherds pie is very good. Service is either decent or non-existent. I look forward to updating this review with 5 stars once they figure this all out!

Absolutely love this spot! They have some of the best corned beef I have had in a really long time. I really enjoyed their corn beef poutine. Their Shepard's Pie with lamb is authentic, flavorful, and simply delicious. I cannot wait to come back and eat more of their food. They were sadly out of dessert when we went, but that simply proves how good it must be! I also love how they have an outdoor area that is perfect for families to bring their kids without impacting other diners experience or ambiance. It was fun seeing other parents able to be out and enjoying their time.The food came quickly and we never had to track down our server. She was honest with her recommendations and really made the experience for us. I would highly recommend coming here for good food, good music, and a good time.

Stopped in on a Thursday. Greeted at the door by a nice young man. WeSat in the bar - Jodi wasThe bartender - very friendly and she made great drinks. I had the Rueben egg rolls which were delicious. My husband had the fish and chips which he said was good. Will definitely return forBoozy bingo on Tuesday night !

Luckily not many people were here as we got seated right away. The staff were super friendly and the food was good. At night it turns into a great Irish bar. A great place to check out while exploring this small town.

You need to try this place! We decided to give it a try and we weren't disappointed. We had the Bangers and Mash and the Irish Stew. Both were great! The stew was probably the best we've had and so flavorful. The service was great too... very friendly! Happy to have a place to come each time we come to Pinetop.

My husband and I wanted to find a more local spot for dinner and were intrigued by "live entertainment" last night. They only had one waitress on staff (Crystal) and she was incredibly kind and attentive. The musician was fantastic and kept our 9 month old baby entertained. Very friendly as well. There were plenty of food choices and our meals were delicious! Possibly my husband's new favorite place to eat for dinner when we're in town.

Crystal was an absolutely great server. She was knowledgeable about the menu and every drink and so spunky. The interior is great pub woth awesome tables. The high tables are old whiskey barrels! Thenout doors is awesome. Area for kids to play and a live music stage for the weekends. Their Irish lemonade is dangerously good. I had the corned beef saanwhich and it's my first rating of 10/10. Might even be better than mine. The wings were so crispy and sauce is delicious. 9.2/10. Ruben 10/10. You kuat try it here period. We will be back for sure. Prices were very good for quality and quality. A hole in the wall you'd miss if you blinked driving by.

Food was pretty good! Everyone in our party enjoyed what they ordered although the fries were a bit undercooked for most of us. Fish was crispy. The best part for us was the kids area that could be enjoyed by the younger ones in our party.

First time visiting, new place, opened on 4th of July 2024. As a Brit I was eagerly awaiting their opening. Happen to be driving by on a Sunday evening about 7:00 and saw it was not too busy, stopped in for dinner. It was seat yourself anywhere, the staff were super attentive and friendly. Service was amazingly fast. We had the Colcannon as an appetizer, it was delicious and authentic. I had the full Irish breakfast, it was amazing. Have not had white pudding since I was in Scotland. Last in 1997. Brought tears to my eyes, as did the potatoes gone. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her Dubliner Burger and fries. We sampled a couple of the cocktails, the lemon drop, the Irish Margarita. Both were quite tasty. It's a standard Irish pub and restaurant with typical decor and ambience. The music that was playing tonight was contemporary adult, little bit of Kenny Rogers, a good mix of things.

Friendly staff. Great food! Loved the Redbreast Irish Whiskey.And on Tuesday's Edition ofAlli's Culinary Adventures and Tales Since we had time before the appointment, Bonnie and I stopped at the The Irish Colleen for lunch.Now, I'm not a whiskey drinker. My tastes hover around Southern Comfort (on the rocks, neat, or as a Spicy Southern Screw) but I want to learn about whiskey. So, we have a very nice time, and conversations, with our bartender and food server, Jason. A very informative and interesting (AND busy) bartender.On Jason's recommendation, and also a recommendation by Ambert, I had a shot of Redbreast 12 year old Irish Whiskey, neat. Oh my! I had had a shot of Hellcat Maggie up in Jerome a few weeks ago. But THIS...this stuff is very...very smooth. Wonderful aroma and when I finally got around to taking a sip ***YES, very smooth flavor!! I liked it, Ambert, I really did. Thanks for the texts and info.Bonnie had an Irish Mojito. I have not had one before so when Bonnie offered me a sip, I did. Yow! Nice. Then, with her meal, she had an Irish Coffee. Uhh, not all Irish Coffees are made the same. I liked this, Jason!Meals...I had the Irish Stew. A slice of Irish Soda bread on the side. As with Irish Coffees, not all Irish Stews are made the same! Good, tender beef, potatoes and carrots all cooked tender. Used the Soda bread to sop up the leftover sauce. Another good meal in my tummy! I had a very nice Smithwick's with the meal.Bonnie, now, she orders the Bangers & Mash. And, if you look at the menu at The Irish Colleen, it looks like the picture on the menu! Bonnie gave me a slice of the banger. Tender, great taste, and it smelled like it had a secret to tell me as soon as I put it in my mouth. Bonnie also took home an Irish Corned Beef Pizza. WHAT? What did you say, Alli? Yes, you heard it right folks...an Irish Corned Beef Pizza. Now, I'm torn between ordering the Bangers & Mash next time, or...the Tipperary Premier Bleu Cheese burger. Or maybe the Cork Rebel burger??? Or the Corned Beef Pizza????
