New Irish Bar in Dupont

[Oldhiker]

I think I just found my new favorite place. Perhaps we can break it in with a kilt night?

Mike

yes that would be great for a south kilt night, you check it out more for us. Sample some of those fine liquids and advise

Did ye hear that Kevin O'Brien died last night at the Guinness Brewery? He fell in the vat and drown. We went to tell his widow what happened, and she said, "My God, it must have been a terrible death." I said, "I don't think so, he got out three times to go to the bathroom."

I have now been down to McNamaras three times, once for lunch and twice for serious business. Both times were weekday happy hour times. The crowd is gathering nicely, and the beer is good.

One of the waitresses came from Pints & Quarts, and English Pub in Lacey (and now another on my list to check out). The wait staff is good, but so far, no one can make a shamrock in the top of my beer. They have a pay by the song DJ machine (I hesitate to call it a jukebox), and while they have a pretty good collection of Irish & Celtic tunes (new and old), at $.75 a song it adds up quick. They have indoor shuffleboard, but I haven't seen anyone use it yet.

It is still new and finding its groove, and I believe more research will be required before a final report can be given. Work just never seems to end.
