It's all velvety darkness inside at first, but once your eyes adjust you'll find that the room's well appointed, the locals are friendly and the beer's fresh. If the bar's filled, sit on a stool at the mid-room divider or grab a table by the dance floor. Seamus Kennedy, the current owner (there have been several in the pub's 50-odd year history), and his family members circulate and greet patrons; on a Sunday NFL afternoon (the Irish football on Setanta's being ignored), everyone seems to be a regular and most are in company of his or her spouse. Hungry? Check out the board list, then amble over to the kitchen door and tell the cook what you'd like — fresh, tasty standards such as fish and chips and burgers are in front of you a few minutes later. Very fresh Guinness, Bass, Harp and Smithwick on tap.
