Mickey Byrne's

Hello all,

Mickey Byrne's Logo

Last week I was feeling a little "Irish" after St. Patty's week and we decided to go to "Mickey Byrne's" in downtown Hollywood, FL.  It's an Irish Pub located near Young Circle and it is a popular choice among the locals.  It's right by two other bars that I reviewed, The Greek Joint and The Tipsy Boar.  They are known for their drinks, food, and having watch parties, especially with soccer games.

We met a few friends up there and immediately ordered our favorite shots, aka Fireball Whiskey Shots.  We were served right away by their bartender and the environment around us was very genuine.  The decor had a real Irish feel to it and the music was loud but not overly loud to where you can't hear yourself.

They feature 18 beers on tap, some being imported from Europe and some locals.  They had the typical Irish Pub beers on tap such as Guiness, Harp's, and Smithwick's.  All are very refreshing in my opinion and Guiness, being the original stout, is my fall back beer.  They also have many craft bottled beers behind the bar.  Their food is amazing from the times I have been there, although we did not order food this time.

I started off by ordering a craft bottled beer, as they had Shipyard Pumpkin Ale in stock.  This is a seasonal beer usually only lasting tip the holidays, so finding it in March is a rarity.  I love all pumpkin beers and Shipyard Pumpkin Ale is a nice and crisp beer to find.  The pricing was reasonable, especially being in the downtown Hollywood, FL area at $4-$7 a beer.  We have been here plenty of times and it is definitely a local favorite of ours.  This is the go-to Irish Pub!
