Claddagh Cottage Irish Pub

Underrated Orlando spot that I genuinely like to gate keep. Great live music, Cottage Pie is wonderful, overall delicious menu offerings, great drink selection and service. I bring out of town friends here and they always love it.

The Rundown: an intimate pub vibe with fantastic eats and a live music experience.The Review: stepping through the doors felt like being transported to another region, an authentic pub vibe without appearing as though trying too hard. Claddagh offers bar and table/booth options, with live music to the back during different times. It's dark, with warm lighting, and very comforting. The staff were all friendly, ensuring that you get your fill whether just from the drink offerings or from the kitchen. The menu was rather varied, even offering items like Tikki masala which educated me that this dish is actually UK in origin - I never knew! The food is quite filling, I went with the chicken leek pastry which had a wonderful crust and very flavorful taste. I definitely need to go back and try the others because it was absolutely fantastic.If you're seeking Irish food, a comforting intimate experience, or just somewhere with an excellent menu, definitely make plans to step through the doors of Claddagh Cottage!

Claddagh Cottage is my favorite Irish pub in Orlando! The Guinness is always poured to perfection, the food is great every time, and it has that cozy pub charm. My favorite dishes are the steak and mushroom pie or the cheese and leek pasty, but you can't go wrong with anything. The bar tenders will take great care of you no matter when you go.

Found my new favorite Irish pub! Food is great and service really good considering it was pretty busy for a Monday evening. Inside is dark just like you want an Irish pub to be. Not full liquor

This Pub is fantastic. We had Magners cider on draft followed by the most delicious pastys: tiki masala and traditional beef. Outstanding! For desert we shared the bread pudding which was stellar. I love this pub and will be back again soon.

Terrific food, homemade love in it and no oils!Wonderful and friendly service, so welcoming. We stepped into actual europe, actual Ireland it felt authentic. Great ambiance. Would 100/10 go back

A nice place to tuck into a some comfort food. I may be biased by my Irish heritage, but there's no more comforting place to have a drink than an Irish pub, and Claddagh Cottage is the best I've been to in the state of Florida. Delicious food and a tall Guinness to boot (imperial pints as God intended). Be warned, the horseradish on the corned beef sandwich will clear your sinuses somethin' fierce! Delicious potato and leek soup. The TV at the bar was playing Turner Classic Movies, which was a lovely little treat. Bartender was nice and the service was super prompt. Will definitely be coming back!

Cracking pub, this! Seems like the perfect place to begin an adventure ...in beer with friendly regulars and flirty pensioners. Only if I had any less self control, I digress.So the Guinness is good, of course, and so's the food. Actually, better. Who knew how delicious the food actually is here? Finding myself really rather gobsmacked over it. That goddamn pie. Double nom nom yum yum.

Any place with metal darts is already a winner in my book. Finding our favorite Irish and UK beers there was a wonderful bonus. The food was a bit bland and over-priced, but it's all probably sourced from Irish purveyors so that was expected. I was astounded (in a good way) that the bartenders were able to keep track of the assorted food and drink orders of everyone in our party when it came time to settle up. Very impressive. The live music was good, but a smidge loud. We weren't anywhere near them and found it difficult to keep a conversation.

If you want a typical irish dark pub with bland irish food this is for you. The ambiance is fitting as it's typical of an irish pub, and has the vibes you want if you are seeking that out! We got the beef and leak mushroom pasty, as well as the leak pie. The crust on all was crispy flakely and delicious, but unfortunately like all irish food it's super bland and lacks flavor. The server was really nice and attentive, and they have a nice selection of beers on draft. To note: only beer and wine here!
