"Service was great. The beef and Guinness pie is easily one of the best I've had. The beef was sooo tender. I suspect the climate or perhaps a rushed 2nd pour could've affected the head on the Guinness somewhat. But I enjoyed myself, so I'll be back."

"The Irish Rock is definitely a unique experience and stands out for its popularity among sports fans. There are sufficient screens no matter where you are sitting. The food is great and service is good and fast. The menu range is still the best offering with many options to choose from. Love the baskets. Good food good drinks The only aspect the need to improve is paying a little more attention to the rest of the shared facilities I.e. toilets etc."
