Time: Lunch
Type: Restaurant/Bar
Where: 12836 Henderson Road, Tampa, FL
Party: 1 Male, 1 Female
Immediate Impression:
What a cute place, in an absolutely terrible location! Beautiful day, let's sit on the patio and watch some football!
Service:
It wouldn't be fair for me to discuss service, since the server is one of my friends. But all in all, all the servers and bar staff were really congenial and helpful - not just my friend.
Menu/Food:
It's primarily an Irish Pub, with your standard Irish foods - shepard's pie, fish and chips, corn beef and cabbage - but they also have PIZZA and fried appetizers. It seemed odd to me to order the pizza, so I ordered the French Onion soup and the Club Sandwich, my guest ordered the potato soup.
My french onion soup was pretty good, not bland and just the right amount; but when they brought out my club sandwich, I was wondering who the other 3 people were who would help me finish it. I couldn't believe this sandwich was for ONE person. Luckily, my guest was hungry and offered to share it with me.
As for the Potato Soup, this is a passable soup,nothing really exciting to talk about, a little too liquid for my taste.
Dubliner North does have an ample on Tap beer menu, and they pour a near perfect pint of Guinness - or course, something I always look for!
Price:
Good, not out of line for a day watching football, drinking beer and eating.
Final thought:
They obviously still have an identity crisis with the Dubliner in South Tampa (there menus are actually from there). I will, of course, go back, but probably only when my friend is working.

I think I've been to the one in the south, has a thatched roof, right? Interesting change of scenery with a somewhat authentic ambience.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous...you are actually thinking of Four Green Fields, which is a fantastic bar! Dubliner South is on Azeele
