"The most authentic pub outside of Ireland. Awesome food, great service and just an amazing place. The bar outside is awesome. Adams Ribeye tasted great. Wings are some of the best I've ever had. Well worth a visit."
"A great Irish bar in Menomonee Falls. Megan is always nice and attentive. The food is great, specially the comfort food. We enjoy their special events.Highly recommended!"
"We went here for a Friday night to end February. It had a great amount of larger tables for 7. The waitress was nice. We got no appetizers but the corned beef rolls looked & sounded great.We all 7 got a Friday Fish Fry. Perch was mine & my fiancé's selection. I loved it because it came out in small pieces. I'd say between the Cod, Perch, Walleye, or Gluegill I'd say 1) Perch 2) Walleye 3) Cod 4) Bluegill but honestly couldn't go wrong with either. I rarely get a take home box but it was enough that I added my remaining 3 pieces into my fiancé's box. I love the baskets the fish & chips are served in. Very quaint to Irish/England Pubs. The marble rye was thick & large portions. Honestly, for $17 you get a great deal worth of food considering inflation.The waitress was even kind enough to bring an extra basket of fries when she realized they gave one of the guests Sweet Potato instead of Regular fries. Honestly, we ended up putting the extra fries into the 3 carry out boxes. The servings are great sizes!! There was also live music on a Friday night."
"Pleasantly surprised! Inside is more welcoming than anticipated by the outside. It is dark but but gloomy.Food was good snd pineapple drink perfect for a summer day!"
"This is a Milwaukee institution. Solid bar, amazing back porch on the river during the summer."

It was quite a lovely Sunday morning where we came here for brunch! Outdoor seating was open and we were able to be seated.The server was very kind and checked on us several times through out the meal. Food were great! We had a corn beef omelet, a bacon sandwich with bacon and sausage, and stuffed French toast, really like the combination here. The roasted potatoes were delicious on the side. We really enjoyed having this brunch! Would definitely come back for a lunch or dinner!

About as true of an Irish Pub you can get, with cozy decor, friendly faces, and fine pints of Guinness. If there's something that makes it stand out from other Irish pubs I've been to (quite the list) is that O'Donoghue's has food that is not just "bar good" but actually good. We hosted a party in the back room after my son's baptism and couldn't have asked for a better spread nor could we received better treatment from Jamie the owner as we planned or service from the bartender and staff as we enjoyed. Enjoy a cold pint on the patio while it's warm outside or get cozy inside when it's cold, either way you can't lose!

My friend and I rented kayaks for a few hours and decided to stop here for a paddle break. There's open spots to pull up but I saw people pulling their kayaks onto the docks so it wouldn't block the pontoon boats from docking. We were able to put our kayaks at the end in the water so it didn't get in the way. It was packed, looked like a lot of fun for day drinking especially with being right on the water. We got drinks and then sat on the patio area. Fun spot for sure!

Got carryout last night from Gingerz during the Taste of the Gateway event. My husband and I hadn't tried their food before. The service was friendly and they were very happy to have our business. We both got burgers with fries and shared Gingerz Stickz. I had the whiskey glaze burger with grilled onions on it... it was phenomenal! The fries almost tasted like they were deep fried which added a delicious layer of crunchiness; we ordered spicy mayo to dip them in. The Gingerz Stickz were basically like a thin crust cheese pizza without sauce... it came with marinara to dip the sticks in and was definitely tasty!

Was our first stop on our party bus tour! What a stop, had a lot of fun here and you know I had a Guinness! It was St. Patty's Day weekend when we were here, so got some free Jameson gear! Had so much fun would come back if I'm back in Waukesha!

Love stopping here to kick off a night out. The owners are local and so nice. They make classic cocktails and always have a ton of local beers on tap. I also love stopping here to get some bar food! They make a delicious "Irish grilled cheese" and you can order pizzas as all. There's no real kitchen, so you can watch your food being made right in front of you. I think this is a great place to bring friends from out of town. There's no where else like it in town, especially with the live music on most weekends!

"Anyone who follows me knows that I don't give out 5 stars very often because that is truly reserved for an awesome experience but today I'm letting one out. My first visit to this new to me restaurant/bar had some issues with my takeout order, it was all messed up to be honest so I called to let them know. Well the woman who made my order realized it just as I left and couldn't correct it so when I called she said that she took full responsibility and would correct it the next time that I was in the area.Today I was in the area and the bartender and her remembered my situation and I gave them the benefit of the doubt in my first review because they seemed genuine in correcting the mess up and they did correct it as promised. The woman asked if I had frys with my first burger and I didn't lie and told her no because I was not looking for any extra free items and she said that she would throw in a potato of my chocolate so I said sure.Today's order would be the bacon cheeseburger rare with the works and mayo. I love how they pack the takeout with some thought and place the food in separate areas like the frys in one, the basic bacon cheeseburger by it self wrapped and the cold fresh toppings wrapped separately so when you assemble this bacon cheeseburger it's not all mushy from the drive home. The works is lettuce, pickles, red onions and tomato's with mayo which is just how I like my cheeseburger topped.The frys were my favorite, battered frys that were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside seasoned perfectly, I'm sorry health nuts because frys need to be seasoned to be enjoyed. The bacon cheeseburger was cooked rare with a decent amount of bacon, thank you. When fully assembled with the thick cut fresh toppings it's an un hinge your jaw big burger to eat. The bacon cheeseburger was good and exactly what I wanted to fill my crave.Overall they honored their word and corrected my first experience and then some because sometimes I want a beer after work and take a burger home for dinner. Thank you once again and I enjoyed the perfect cooked bacon cheeseburger."
"House of Guinness is a classic staple of night life in Waukesha. Dim lighting, dark wood walls and bar, and live music. This the perfect place for conversation, as you can actually hear yourself talk in here. Refreshingly, there are only a few (maybe two?) TVs in the place. They are only on for the World Cup, Packers game, and sometimes Brewers/Bucks if you ask, otherwise it's alternative music playing through an iPad. The taps are filled with imports, as well as some local crafts. The back bar is filled with not just Irish whiskey, but other impressive whiskey/bourbon. Oh, and since the new ownership took over their cocktail game has been strong, which is a warm welcome to Waukesha. Their cocktail menu shifts with the season and features their housemade bitters. The food menu is limited to Emil's pizza, Milwaukee Pretzel Co pretzel with cheese and mustard, and Pop's Kettlecorn. Oh, and how could I forget that they offer free kettle chips. For Packer games I've seen them offer brats or hot ham rolls, among other food patrons have brought in to share.My favorite thing about HoG? Whiskey Club. Come in anytime, get a sheet at no cost, and start drinking some whiskey/bourbon. The goal? Drink 40 different whiskeys. Along the way you'll get incentives, like a whiskey on the house, free pint of beer, etc. Once you hit 40 you're hand a button up shirt and are officially a member. Members have access to special meetings where the bar will be shutdown to just members for speciality tastings, classes and more. Oh, don't just stop at 40, there is an 80 level, and even a 100 level! For someone with little understanding of whiskey other than I like it in my old fashioned, hah, I'm 13 whiskeys in and I've already learned a lot. The bartenders are eager to share their whiskey wisdom, as are other patrons.If I had to list a negative... I wish the food menu was just a tiny bit bigger, as after three double pours of whiskey I need some kind of real sustenance. Perhaps something like a chip dip for the kettle chips and baked chicken wings, since they do not have a full kitchen/fryer."
"It 11:30pm on. Sat night, I've been working 14hrs, I'm hungry...and what better way to quench my thirst and hunger than at an Irish Pub. This may not be Ireland but it damn good a small Wisconsin town in the U.S.They have a menu of about six sandwiches, a pasta, salad, garlic bread and one dessert. I don't know if this is the menu all the time or just late night. I had the Reuben and a Guinness draught, it was a solid sandwich with kettle chips and a pickle spear. The draught was a good solid pour. The service is nice and quick. The Kilkenny cream ale is also a good pour. The chocolate mascarpone cheesecake has a chocolate crumb crust, it's a nice light chocolate mouse like pie, its a bit sweet for me, but fine for a restaurant grade bulk dessert.It's a nice place, lots of room to move, good for large and small groups. I'll keep this on my short list for when I'm in the area again."
"My visit to Belfast Station felt like a whole experience. My husband & I went for dinner on a Friday night and it was great for dinner. The house specialties are very good, and definitely Irish! We sat by the dining area and the atmosphere that the fireplace brought was amazing. My favorite thing was the Old Fashioned I ordered, and trying an Irish dish with corned beef.Quite a charm spot in Sussex!"
"Fine food & cocktails...was I at the right place? It's kind of smelly too. Sorry."
