With multiple flat-screens playing important games and a location well within walking distance of the beach, The Irish Circle stands ready to entice famished taste buds with a lunch and dinner menu stocked with savory sandwiches and entrees, a sweet Sunday brunch menu, and an all-week-long array of alcohol-infused drink options. Mitigate monstrous meal hankerings with mild, medium, or hot buffalo wings ($8.95 for 10), or a plate of nacho supreme ($11.95). Instead of spending another meal re-reading the instructional booklets that come with electronics, diners can leaf through a Belmont steak salad to watch mixed greens flirt with bleu cheese vinaigrette, sliced steak, and portobello mushrooms, which appear adjacent a triple-scoop of salsa, sour cream, and guacamole ($16.95 brunch, $14.95 lunch or dinner). The Irish Circle's kitchen staff stuffs open mouths with the hot open turkey sandwich, made with pan-roasted turkey served over toast and muffled with gravy and garlic mashed potatoes ($14.95). Stomachs served shepherd's pie—a mixture of Black-Angus ground beef and veggies cavorting under a golden-brown potato crust ($12.95)—can flock toward dinnertime draughts including the usual domestic suspects ($4/pint), or worldly waxing Smithwick's, Bass, or Magner's Cider ($5/pint). Treat beach-volleyball partners or sentient beach volleyballs to the prix-fixe menu, which offers a selected entree, two sides and an ice-cream-cake roll for each eater ($18.95 for two).

Named after the Irish tradition of circling up after a day's work to enjoy food and drink, The Irish Circle greets eaters exhausted from a week's work with Sunday-brunch options. Guests can sugar shock still-sleeping systems with chocolate-chip pancakes ($8.95), or condense messy meals into portable morsels with breakfast sliders, warm rolls piled with scrambled eggs, bacon, and american cheese buttressed by a needleless haystack of home fries ($8.95). Meet morning-mimosa quotas with a 32-ounce pitcher or jugful of Bloody Marys or screwdrivers.
