Conway's Irish Pub

I always enjoy going to Conways! Whether the bartender is Mike or Chad, the drinks are always delicious! Recently went in and there was a new bartender that I hadn't seen before. She was super sweet and made a fantastic Dirty Martini! Yum!!! They also have a great selection of beer on tap! Although there is no good they have a selection of snacks on hand! Nice atmosphere with friendly people! Will definitely be back!

I've been coming to Conway's since the night of my 21st birthday almost sixteen years ago and it will always be a special place to me. Rob, Troy, Chad and all the other regular bartenders have always been awesome and really get to know their patrons. Conway's is a smaller establishment, but for its size has several TVs, decent bar seating as well as round tables, chairs and a long bench seat making this a great place for individuals or groups tocatch up, or watch a game. The pub features a fantastic beer selection and great whiskey/ bourbon selection as well compared to other places in the area. As if the staff and drink selection wasn't enough, this place is very reasonably priced and I love that about it because some other local places are absurdly overpriced. All three of these factors make this one of my favorite bars in San Diego.One can usually gauge the quality of a bar based on the people that work there, but also the regulars that you meet there. Conway's is definitely a neighborhood pub that might not be well known about by those unfamiliar with the area, but this just adds to its charm. I've talked with several regulars who have been going there for 20+ years and it's great having a locals bar so close to home. Being a huge fan of dive bars and pubs. Conway's as of the past year or so has become even more special to me because this is where I met my now girlfriend about a year and a half ago over a glass of Weller. In an age of apps and online dating, I love our "We met in a bar" story and we wouldn't have that had it not been for Conway's.

Great prices! Bar tender isn't an uppidy snob either, just a cool dude! Great for a quick drink before or after a movie.

Where to start? I suppose it was a scorching hot summer Saturday on 2003. My car was in the shop and they'd loaned me a convertible. So I was out all day, top down, wind in my hair, (which I had a lot of back then) enjoying San Diego. I got a good tan that day. On my way back north I was burning up and needed a cold beer. I vaguely remembered an Irish pub tucked away behind the Olive Garden in Carmel Mountain Ranch. I roared into the parking lot and drove straight into a spot, right in front of a sign reading Irish Pub. They didn't call it Conway's back then. Lots of people outside, very friendly. Especially this really nice lady, Mary. She welcomed me like I was a weary traveler or long lost family member. She told me I'd become a regular.And that's about all it took. I become a regular. I got to know all the bartenders, Mikey, Troy, Big Daddy. I got to know everyone's wives, girlfriends, husbands and boyfriends. I got to know the owner, Rob, who always teased me about needing a booster chair to see over the bar! Hahaha. Smart ass. I got to know all of the many other regulars. All of those people, and many, many more, became my friends. We drank a lot of 'Blasters,' a brilliant concoction of Red Bull and Jäegermeister. Conway's was a consistent part of my life for 15-16 years, I can't quite remember exactly. It really was like a family, full of happiness and fun along with the occasional conflict and drama. Somewhere along the line I stopped coming in as much. It was partly a function of me getting older, partly because it became a new, different, younger crowd at the bar. I realized I was too old to be chasing 25 year old girls! I'll never forget the moment I felt like a dirty old man when this beautiful young woman asked me how old I was. I was like a slow death, with my life flashing before my eyes! So my visits became less frequent and I lost touch with my old friends. And that was that. I was no longer a regular. It was a awesome phase of my life, but like they say, all good things must come to an end. So it was especially sweet to return yesterday after grabbing burritos next door, walking in and seeing my buddy Dave sitting there at the bar, smiling at me. Great guy. Looks exactly the same. And guess who I saw next? Mary! And then Mike, who always paid for drinks, super generous guy. And more people. It was kind of like a homecoming of sorts. And it hit me. Conway's isn't really a bar at all. More like a room full of good people, a happy place with beautiful, slightly fuzzy memories. That's Conway's.

I surprised my wife for our 10yr anniversary last night at Conway's! The bartenders made it such an Awesome experience! They really deserved credit for really going out of their way to make this happen. If you want to go have a GREAT time head over there. Lots of TV's, tables and a very enjoyable atmosphere!

Irish Pub in Carmel Mountain Ranch, in the same plaza at Krispy Kreme.Love the vibes. Super chill, super lowkey. Great music & they play everything. Bartenders are awesome & attentive. They have darts & several television throughout so you can watch your sporting events.

This bar is awesome! I love dive bars. I had great times at dive bars when I lived in Michigan. I'm 31 and I'm not into clubs or loud music or people bumping shoulders touching me. This bar is calm and relaxed. It was my first time going in last night and Jason and Chad waited on me. I haven't had a chance to chat with locals yet but maybe I'll meet more people if I go in on the regular. I'm new to the area and hope to meet relaxed people. They pour some great drinks. This bar is literally around the corner and across the street from me. Closer than I thought. I'm glad it's very welcoming so far. I think I'll be hooked to this bar. This was my first bar in the area since I moved to the area end of August. Great way to resume drinking after over two months of not drinking.

They are now open but are taking advantage of them being closed due to COVID-19.To order a drink you must order food.I am good with supporting local businesses but the cheapest food option is a 1/2 house salad which is only lettuce, cheese, and croutons for a whopping $7Bottom line $20 for a drink and a salad, recommend staying home and buying a bottle....

Fun atmosphere, great drinks and the fact they are cool with outside food is perfect. The bartenders are quick and heavy handed with the pours. Definitely coming back.

CHAD and MIKEY are the best bartenders I've ever met in my whole entire life. This place is amazing.
