My friends and I tried County Clare last week and loved it. I got the Chocolate Guinness, which was a Guinness with a shot of chocolate vodka. For food, we started with the Colcannon poppers--mashed potatoes, white cheddar, cabbage, and onions in the perfect bite. They were super crispy on the outside and came with the most delicious Worcestershire gravy. We also got a side of mashed potatoes and poutine, which wasn't our favorite but was still good.The real stars of the show? The Reuben rolls and the Reuben sandwich. So good. Our server was incredibly kind, making sure we had extra napkins and horseradish sauce since we couldn't get enough of it!For the end of the meal, we had an espresso-inspired crème brûlée, which was the perfect finale. The whole place was so cute, with vintage wallpaper and plenty of Guinness memorabilia.There was even a live band and lots of seating--this place would be perfect for groups! Definitely a spot worth visiting and I can't wait to come back.

I haven't been here in years but was glad to drop back in. The space is cozy with lots of sayings and paintings on the walls, which most are dark green and warm. There are plenty of spots at the bar to enjoy a beverage, including Guinness, but lots of tables for dining as well.I had to grab the corned beef at a place like this of course. It was a little dry in my mind, and the potatoes were a little dry as well. But the flavor of the corned beef was great, and the cabbage was colorful. It was a good place to stop occasionally in the future.

This is a great spot for weekend brunch! I had one of the best tasting eggs benedict dishes (with corned beef) I've ever had, accompanied by an equally tasty bloody mary. We went with our dear neighbors (who know good food and drink!) and we all really enjoyed both the food and the cozy ambience. Service was friendly and on point. This is a destination place, definitely somewhere I'd bring out of town guests for a good meal and a nice neighborhood walk.

Had corned beef and cabbage. Corned beef was tender and delicious. Potatoes were stiff and not great. Cabbage definitely was over the top on vinegar . Service was average. Place is the same as always which is great but definitely disappointing

Super friendly staff, solid food. A bit loud and tight fit, but hey, it's an Irish Pub !We're big "bar-sitters" and there really isn't much room in the actual bar, but we made it work and enjoyed our time. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area.

I looked online for the greatest pint of Guinness in Milwaukee and these guys didn't disappoint. I watched them start every pour by checking and then rinsing the glass. Their method differed from mine, but the end results produced really great pints. I'm a Guinness snob and that was my initial purpose for going there. I found myself engaged with other patrons sitting at the bar - which is exactly what I'm looking for in a proper Irish pub. There were a couple TV's playing the Daytona 500, but it was not at all intrusive. The place was setup for conversations with strangers, or a quiet pint, you could easily decide for yourself. After several pints and conversation, I found myself looking for a bite. Scott?, the bartender was great. He kept the pints coming and when I started looking for food I told him the 3 things I was thinking, he then told me his top 3 which differed from my thoughts. I went with the pot roast which was one of his suggestions. It was amazing. I've not eaten pot roast a million times, but I can say this was absolutely the best I've had. The Brussels were excellent too. Forgive the picture as I took a few bites before realizing I should snap a pic. If the above sounds appealing you should go, don't think twice.

What a lovely spot in Milwaukee's lower east side! Thankful they exist and happy to have them as my #ThankYouThursday review this year!We were in the mood for Irish food and while we have our favorite Irish spot, decided to try something different. Enter, County Clare Irish Pub.This is a lovely Irish pub and though casual, has a touch of charm that sets it apart from other spots in the area. I started the evening with a barrel aged negroni, which was spot on perfect. Their cocktail menu is definitely more robust than I expected and was thrilled their was a negroni on the menu. For my dinner, I got the grilled salmon with asparagus and whipped potatoes. In true Irish fashion the potatoes were both flavorful and plentiful. The asparagus was perfectly sauteed and the salmon was grilled to perfection and served with a dill cream sauce. The blackened salmon (which I didn't order) comes with asparagus and the grilled salmon comes with spinach. I asked if I could order the grilled salmon but get the asparagus and they kindly obliged.The service was kind and attentive and the prices were reasonable.Get to it!

I was there during the afternoon on a weekend because I found it outside of downtown Milwaukee and wanted a nice meal. I was able to sit outside and enjoyed people watching. The overall restaurant is clean and quite spacious. There is plenty of seating outside on the sidewalk, but you might be joined by a couple interesting characters that are roaming around the area. I ordered a delicious Rueben Sandwich with an Arnold Palmer (I had to drive back to Chicago). The fries were also delicious. The service was good, a bit laid back. As an overall stop that was unknown until I used Yelp! for help, I am glad I came here and enjoyed a delicious rueben.
