Editorial Review for B.D. Riley's Irish Pub – by Brandon Reynolds

In Short
The place was designed and built in Ireland, then taken apart, put into crates, shipped across the pond to be reassembled by Irish carpenters. The pub retains its Irish ambience by avoiding the chaos that often accompanies the Sixth Street scene. Regulars know they can get Southwestern appetizers or fish-and-chips without worrying that the crush of the crowd will prevent dining. Fresh beer and a wide variety of whiskeys and spirits are also available.

Good grub, good beer selection, great waitstaff. And the best pub quiz in town. And there's no problem getting a seat for it either.
