A plane ticket to Ireland is prohibitively expensive, and the flight attendant won’t let you drink, sing, or knit her dog an Aran sweater. Fast forward to the fun part of visiting Ireland with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $25 worth of pub fare and drinks at Flanagan's Irish Pub. There, drinking and singing are not only allowed, but encouraged by the 20 beers on tap and live music Thursday through Sunday. Traditional Irish pub fare such as shepherd's pie ($7.95) and harp-battered fish and chips ($9.95) are tasty touches to the standard bar menu of sandwiches, burgers, and salads. To ease into things, diners might opt for smothered Irish fries ($7.95) (smothered by colby jack cheese, bacon, and the chef’s affection) or mac 'n' cheese wedges ($7.95) (beer-battered and fried to a crisp), paired up with a Killian's Irish Red ($3.75) or green beer ($2.25), served year round.
Flanagan's Irish Pub
Flanagan's Irish Pub's gastropub menu rotates nearly weekly with eclectic offerings such as pulled pork tacos and specialty burgers with fresh, seasonal toppings. Chefs still cook up classic Irish dishes such as fish and chips or shepherd's pie, but also put twists on old favorites: reuben bites—mini reuben sandwiches rolled in wonton skins—are a house specialty. On the weekends, live bands and DJs fill the air with music.
