O'Flaherty's Ale House: You’ve all finally gotten together but can’t decide where to go. Riingo wants to hear music. Emeril wants dinner where you don’t order by number. Dennis needs to sit outside to smoke, and Alex is sports-obsessed. You might be meeting dates, and oh, payday isn’t until next Friday. O’Flaherty’s could be the one bar that has something for everyone. A library-like dining room complete with roaring fire (one of three in the place) is just the spot to fill your stomach before heading to the 100-foot copper-topped bar for a round of Bare Knuckle Stout for the fellas and seasonal shandy for the ladies (lemonade and beer). A pool table and dartboard sit in a back room that you pass on the way to the outdoor garden. Live bands cover a decade’s worth of bar music favorites. By the end of the magically delicious night, you’ll be full, drunk, and singing the chorus to “Sweet Caroline” to your blushing dates. |
