The first thing I do with every new McGettigan’s I enter is look up to see if it’s got their default gaudy ceiling. And indeed, this newest branch at the Hilton in JBR has.
What it doesn’t have though, is an indoor smoking area – kudos! A typical British pub in décor, ambience and menu, this latest incarnation of McGettigan’s is a fun place to be. There’s been a festive atmosphere every one of the three times I’ve visited, helped along by some excellent live music.
I’ve kept my diet at McGettigan’s as liquid as possible and therefore can’t comment on the gastro side. Happy hour, however, runs every day from 4pm to 8pm (and until 9pm on Thursdays). Service is friendly, attentive and fast making this a gastropub well worth a visit.
Waste NOT. Want NOT.
