St. Patrick’s Day is tomorrow and those who observe will likely find themselves at a pub. The truly devout will be interested in raising a glass at the very best, and for you, we have Yelp’s list of the best Irish pubs in America.
The crowdsourced review site ranked the country’s top watering hole and narrowed it down to the best Irish pubs in every state, taking into account things like total volume and ratings of reviews. Users can sort the list of 51 places by recently added should they want to check out newer spots, distance to their home for a nearby place to drink or name if finding something familiar strikes their fancy.
Outside of the continental U.S., Hawaii and Alaska are represented by Honolulu’s J. Dolan’s (it’s also known for its pizza) and Juneau’s Lucky Lady Pub, a beloved dive bar for locals. There are also many mom-and-pop joints, including family-owned O'Dwyer’s in Laramie, Wyoming.
Chances are these places will not ply you with awful green beer, so whether it’s bangers and mash you’re after or a cold pint of Guinness, these are the Irish pubs to turn to for your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.
