Harp & Celt Irish Pub & Restaurant

"Original text: [18 Feb 2024] Food: 2/5 The Irish fry had undercooked rashers, and black pudding lacking in flavour. A request for one of the items to be removed was not fulfilled, but a request for extra items was. The toast was soggy and cold. The tea is very nice, as well as the sausage. The presentation of the food was very good, and care was put into its playing despite the flavour. Service: 5/5 Service was friendly and fast, the wait time to be seen was less than 10 minutes, and for food was less than 15. Atmosphere: 5/5 The atmosphere is fantastic, with great lighting and design elements. The seating is very true to Irish pubs in the country side. Overall: 4/5 The food quality may not be the best, but the presentation of both the food and restaurant lead to a positive experience. I’d recommend this place for meeting with mates and having a drink."

"I stopped in for lunch on a Monday. The server dropped off menus without a word of coming back. About 10 minutes later, the server returned. The server asked for the drink and lunch order at the same time. The person I was with ordered the steak and mushroom, but the server informed the restaurant was out of steak and didn't have corned beef due to the beef taking 3 hours to cook. We both just opted for the Irish stew. When the drinks came, the Coke was very weak and tasted more like carbonated water. It took about 5 minutes to get that resolved. It was fairly busy, but the wait was extraordinarily long for stew. About 15 minutes into waiting, we wanted to offer a beer but the server was not coming by the table. One of us had to go up to the bar to make the order ourselves. About 15 minutes later, the stew was brought out to the table. The stew had a wonderful taste and the carrots in there were amazing. However the stew was lukewarm. There was just a medium chunk of meat and one potato in my stew. The server came around once after the meal was served to ask about the meal. Once we finished the meal, the server came over to apologize due to it being so busy. The server did offer to buy dessert for the table, but we were both not willing to wait a long time again for something. The server didn't return for over 15 more minutes, so we had to go to the bar and ask the other server for our check. This made for a very poor service and food experience. The atmosphere was pleasant, and, had the food been warm, I would have rated it higher. The service from our server was not what should be expected for good customer relations."

"It was a fun atmosphere inside the restaurant! They had several large screen TVs. Patrons were watching an exciting soccer game. They were cheering at times. I wish I lived nearby because it would be a great place to watch sporting events. The food was delicious and served quickly. It was hot and tasty! The wait staff was excellent about refilling drinks and about checking back with us! We never had to flag anyone down. We enjoyed ourselves and we felt well served! Thank you Harp & Celt!"

"Love this place. Authentic Irish Pub, love the atmosphere, and the food is just perfect. Must try their Reuben sandwich, potato and leek soup, and the fish and chips with vinegar. Perfect place to go for lunch or to watch a game."

"This restaurant was good. Food was cooked to order. I thought the portion sizes were a little small for the price. Other than that, everything tasted good and hot."
