    It is not safe for females the security guards are violent and do not care for females safety. They don’t even ask what’s going on just 3-4 males dragging you out. PTSD triggered. Edit: You can obviously see by the response of the owner below this post the environment that is present for females at this establishment. Since the owner wants to spread lies I’ll tell what happened. I cuddled on my friends shoulder for 20 seconds with my eyes closed and the security guard came over and told me it was time for me to go. Not once was I offered water. I walked out calmly and proceeded to ask why. I wasn’t drunk whatsoever that night. They stated that I was drunk and had been sleep. In return I informed them that I hadn’t bought any liquor from them as their drinks are watered down and told them to check the footage if they didn’t believe me. They told me they didn’t care and it was time for me to go and I asked kindly if we could wait for our friend to drive up bc it was raining and she was almost there. They said no then three male security guards proceeded to drag me out of the establishment into the rain as and cuts my wristband off and I’m yelling for these THREE MEN to get off of me (PTSD triggered) when the female security guard finally walks up and stops them. I clearly stated to them that I would leave the establishment but only the female could escort me bc they did not make me feel safe. Not once did I strike anyone I fell down into a ball on the ground as the three men were trying to drag me. She talked to me for five minutes on how they were in the wrong and that it would be brought up in a meeting. Clearly it wasn’t. I literally had 6 other people with me there that can attest to this occurring. You lost my services when that happened and we were gladly not returning. This is definitely not a black friendly place either as a month prior our white friend was with us actually drunk and the security guard told her that she was good but if she fell one more time she was kicked out. So compare my situation to hers and make your decision to go.

    I came here with my fiancé for comedy on Thursday 5/19. Service was AMAZING. Every time we flicked out light on we had immediate service. Kelsey always came with a smile and even told the comedians to pick on us it was so amazing and impressionable. We ordered food 4 times because the cottage was so good and fast. Tommy was 10/10 and the Thais was so fast at coming to our table with the food. Pedro’s head was shining so bright I saw my future. I will 10/10 be here next Thursday. Please have Kelsey working so I can see her beautiful face. Amazing. ALSO Dustin, hilarious.

    Paddys security is awesome! Usually clubs have bouncers that are mean and all about business but they’re so cool and laid back and just have to be serious when necessary. It’s nice to be able to see them enjoying themselves at work. Also, the most handsome group of security for any club I’ve been to :) (and beautiful because they’re cool enough to even have a girl bouncer! How awesome)

    Second time I've been here was last night, got treated horrible by the short chubby security dude.. he kicked me out and I was asking why, he never explained, took my wrist band off then walked away. I would understand if I did anything wrong or if I was to intoxicated.. I just need to know what happened bc I didn't cause any issues or got drunk crazy, I left respectfully bc I'm not one to argue.. this is a great establishment but I didn't deserve how I was treated by that one security dude.

    The place had people everywhere, it was GREAT! All the staff was wonderful, but you could tell they needed more people. Everyone was doing their absolute best at keeping up on things and we had a fun time! I didn't get anything to eat there so I can't speak on that, but as for everything else, a great place to spend a few hours whether you're alone or with friends!

    I have gone to this place on multiple occasions and have never had a bad experience tell this Friday night. Keep in mind I am the DD I don't like drinking it's not my thing, but I do enjoy dancing a lot. Well I guess dancing a little too much that they kicked me out. There security guard I believe his name was Nick but don't quote me on that. He was absolutely atrocious and very cruel to the customers. He kicked out me along with multiple different people for very veg reasons. Anyhow if you're going to this club don't dance like you're from Jersey because they can't handle the north east energy. Also on a side note he threw away the water I was drinking because, yah know nothing like being sober at the club.

    I went with a group of 8 people. We arrived around 830pm, there was no cover. I have heard there is a $10-$15 cover charge at 9-930pm. We started on the right side of the bar, the pub side. It has darts, a shuffleboard table, and a live band later on in the night. The drinks were very reasonably priced! We moved the left side of the bar, the club side. Prior in the evening, they had trivia night, once that ended they opened it up to everyone. They had darts and pool tables on this side as well. It got pretty busy around midnight. They also have a big outdoor covered patio space. I had a great time ad plan on going back often!!!

    I had not been here in 15 years and I was so delighted to see all the amazing changes inside and out. Hands down the best pub in NC. Love the stage and the music and the furniture was awesome! The Church is an awesome lounge too! I even enjoyed my bathroom experience with all the informative wall decor ;) an all around fun, laid back, and “wanker free” atmosphere. Made me proud to be Irish ☘️ even more! And the Irish Piss Beer— well I never said I’d swing that way but that was the best I had ever tasted 🤣 🍺 Cheers to you all! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    This is hands down the best bar/ club in Fayetteville!!! Great service, drinks, and a good vibe!! However 4 stars because the DJ/ music is TERRIBLE. It’s still lit bc of the vibe but the worst music I’ve ever heard in a club. I enjoy the “club” side bc that’s my thing but its annoying how often songs come up that we don’t know or can’t dance to

    Your bouncers need some serious training when a patron has a complaint instead of taking them by the arm and throwing them on the ground. Perhaps you should talk to them and figure out what's the issue. People spend good money at this place. Your entry fee is not cheap and neither is your liquor. So use that money to train up your bouncers properly because I have been treated horribly every time I've come to your establishment this will be my second and last time. It's a good club but absolutely horrible security. All I'm asking is to treat your customers as human beings.

    Listen, I review places everywhere I go as you can see, and let me say this very clear, I’ve read the reviews, & to the negative ones, on my word & my wife’s word, the negative reviews PAY NO MIND TO! Here’s my story, I called around 12pm clearly when they were CLOSED, I left a message in regards to a reservation. I got a call back 15 minutes later, I explained to them how my wife is hearing impaired, her hearing aids are giving her serious issues at the moment, they didn’t ask for any more information and were willing to reserve a table for me and my wife. Now arriving… Arrived we felt immediately welcome. The bartender who first took our order had the perfect sense of humor and personality, which you can barely find anywhere else here in Fayetteville NC. Let’s be honest! (Read my past bar reviews) the remaining bartenders began to check on us and make sure we had full drinks and were taken care of. Arriving now for comedy, little did Paddy’s know l, but my wife battles severe depression from her hearing disability, when we walked into the Comedy Section, there was one table that had a RESERVED paper on it right infront of the stage, and that made my wife drop a happy tear! She smiled and is bumping her head to the music on the speakers awaiting for the comedy to begin. Food arriving, food was FRESH, Pizza, Cajun fries, TO DIE FOR! Perfectly cooked & crust is my best part and I can’t stand crust so that tells you something, Being from New Jersey, I’m picky with pizza, this is better then Brooklyns Pizza… Listen, I came here on May 18th, THE COMEDY LINE UP, (I’m from Jersey Born & Raised, Best Comedy) THIS WAS THE BEST COMEDY LINE UP! PLEASE COME HERE & SHOW SUPPORT TO THESE TALENTED COMEDIANS! Bathrooms, VERY clean, overall, im so EXCITED to come back next Thursday for Comedy COUCH! Thank you SO MUCH PADDY’S! WE NEEDED THIS NIGHT && YOU DID IT! Extremely professional, oh & the ID checker before coming in, he’s what made me say LETS GIVE THIS PLACE A SHOT! Keep up the GREAT WORK PADDY!

    Last night was first visit to Paddy’s & it’s the BEST Pub, Guinness & entertainment this side of the pond! Lived in the UK & finally found an AUTHENTIC pub in the states that has Guinness on tap AND knows how to pour it! It was packed but never waited more than 2 mins before being served. Love everything about this place - the people (especially Paddy), the drinks & the PRICES! Was shocked by my LOW bar tab! Will be back every chance I get!!

    Three stars because of the girl on St paddy’s day at the beer tub that had an attitude all night… if you don’t wanna work, just leave. Other than that, grilled cheese was amazing, drinks inside were perfect, and the bartenders behind the real bar seem to really care about what they do. Been coming here for years and the owner really seems to love what he does, and that’s why I will be back and keep giving them chances despite the ridiculous attitude and long wait times I got on Thursday. I guess I should have known the girl wasn’t nice because she didn’t have a line like everyone else.

    Paddy's is simply amazing!! I always feel safe and at home when walking in there! I especially enjoy the ladies there and how they always keep an eye out! They are the most amazing women and how they maneuver the bar and all the energy! Especially Jax, she has a way of captivating and ensuring you feel attended to! The staff at Paddy's are spectacular!!

    I was impressed by the kindness and help of the security team and the safety procedures in place. However, while I know cigarette smoke is normal in a pub, I could hardly stay in there as long as I planned to, due to never being a smoker myself and disliking smoke a lot, for health reasons. When I got through the door for the first time, a young lady was acting as if she just took some drugs up her nose and her person from the table, a male, was looking at her and smiling. The bar tenders took a long time to get to the birthday person in line I was there for, long to bring her drink, and then LOST her debit card through the cracks of one of their machines. It was also very loud in there, which may be understandable, but for people with sensitivity to loud noises was overwhelming. I could barely hear my friends talking to me or myself talking to them over the loud music. I would think conversation is important for at least some people who go there to socialize and relax. I will say their selection of music was enjoyable for me, though.

    The best part of visiting Paddy’s is knowing you’ll be greeted by staff that ends up becoming your home-away-from-home family. I have made deep connections with various staff members who look out for me and take the time to chat with me when they can. Namely, Pepper is one of the friendliest people I have ever met. She is one of the trivia hosts and made a point to share her wedding journey (from engagement to wedding day) with the trivia teams. It’s a pleasure to report that Paddy’s is truly more than just an Irish pub.

    I had a great experience at the pub. But who really made my night was Arika ! She is a great bartender. She took my order quickly and my drinks were spectacular. Every cocktail was delicious. We even exchanged some jokes. She is awesome. Also she has fabulous hair !

    I was here for the comedy show, and it was amazing! I didn't know this place had a whole comedy club inside! The atmosphere is the best part. The walls are covered with cool pictures of people, signs, and instructions on how to perform some of the most challenging duties in life. There are plenty of games to keep you entertained, so check this place out. I could stay here all day.

    I don’t personally know of a local venue that hosts national level comedians (at a steal of a price), hosts free professional latin dance lessons (2x a month), world class trivia, music bingo, karaoke & other unique events, all under one roof. Paddy’s hosts a diverse array of talented musicians and DJ’s that perform on BOTH SIDES of the establishment. There is truly something for everyone here. You absolutely must check this place out for your next girls night, date night, or celebration. Where else can you dance the night away on the club side and then take a break and head over to the pub side for live music and a bite to eat from their food truck that offers drool worthy bites for a great price? I’ve lived all over the east coast and traveled all over the world and this has consistently been my all time favorite bar for over a decade. I have seen the evolution of this establishment from a small hole in the wall to an upscale establishment and I have personally loved the evolution of it all. I have met people from all over the world here. I’ve had some of the best nights of my life here. I even know countless others who have met their spouses here! This place truly brings people together. Paddy’s is a place for everyone, of all backgrounds and walks of life, and you’re always a conversation away from meeting a new friend (and it might even just be the owner, Paddy). It’s clear that Paddy cares about his establishment, his staff, the community and the experience he provides. Most importantly, I feel incredibly safe here. Paddy’s, the staff, and the owner are world class. Don’t miss out on this gem!!!

    I came to this club with my family on a Saturday night to have fun and have a good time. And we ordered our first drink from the bar worker, but the alcohol was too low and the taste was bad. And we asked him to change our drinks. But with a very aggressive and rude attitude, he said that he could not do it, and then he cursed when we insisted. Then they said we were causing trouble and they forced us out. I advise you never to go because your weekend can suck. In addition, the security staff were quite polite and understanding, but it was very obvious that they were coming to us because they had trouble doing so.

    Went last night, bartenders have an attitude. Also instead of asking my friend nicely to leave the things on the table alone the female bouncer goes straight to threatening to kick her out. Then later witnessed her kicking people out for small things. Music was pretty lame. Who can dance to ABCEFU and old songs, songs were also remixed too much. Food is really good. After waiting long at the bar drinks are weak and when asked for a double shot we basically just got regular shots. If your going out on Fayetteville this is a good place bc it’s never dead so you know there will always be a ambient to this place, but if you can get out somewhere else do it, isn’t worth it.

    I don't live near Raeford Road but when I want a burger I go to Paddy's. The last time I went Cris made my burger and it was cooked to perfection. I'm not picky but I'm particular about my food and Cris fulfilled every request with a smile. If you want some good food and great service hit up Paddy's.

  • 5/5 Mitchel M. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a blast here Saturday! Great bartender Justin thanks!! and the helpful security Brandon! Great people vibes... awesome dudes & music.

  • 2/5 Sean G. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty awesome starting out about 6. Great bartenders making great cocktails, great vibes. But by the time 8 rolled around, they'd started losing it. Food ordered at 7 never showed up, and then showed up wrong, and then three times later at 8:30 finally got it. By 9, it was a 10 minute wait for drinks, of declining quality. By 10, I was tired of it when a live band started and was so loud I literally could not hear the person yelling in my ear. Cashed out, to find my bill almost double what I'd expect. And surprise... There's a mandatory 20% gratuity... And a $25 charge to dispute anything. That ended any positive vibes reeeeal quick.

    New in town for work and googles the place. First time here! (10/15). Tab was a great bartender and even changed the TV so I could watch my team play! We enjoyed the patio and was attentively served by Shavonda! Love the prices. We enjoyed 'The Church', club side, too! The decor and atmosphere was phenomenal! I was reading the news articles on the wall and it seems the place has come a long way and it looks great! We will be back!

    We came for Star Wars trivia. It was super busy but staff was friendly and fast. When trivia was over, we enjoyed the Chris Nelson band in the pub while trying out the craft cocktails. Meatlover's pizza was incredible. We loved the busy atmosphere and the bar staff seemed to genuinely enjoy themselves while they worked.

  • 5/5 Kiara C. 2 years ago on Google
    I love going to paddys! We always have a great time and security is top of the line. They always make sure we’re safe from the idiots but still able to have fun. I love that there’s a woman apart of their security team. She is NO JOKE. Great atmosphere, music, and bartenders. And you have to try their pesto grilled cheese. 10/10

    This was a good choice! Justin makes a fantastic old fashioned… with an Irish whiskey! Really good evening with good friends and good drinks. Would definitely return!

  • 5/5 Summer Skye K. 1 year ago on Google
    My girlfriends and I had a blast on our girls night. Both sides of the bar are a lot of fun, and the drinks are always so good. Tabitha was my bartender of choice because of her attentiveness, and knowledge when I didn’t know what I wanted. Very quick and accurate service from her! Will be back!
