    Kevin the owner of Pimlico is direct from Dublin and the word is that he gets the freshest best Guinness in town, direct from Dublin. Enjoy this quaint little bar in River Oaks. Just off Allen parkway on waugh under hand surgery specialists of Texas and next to ZO Skin centre. Tell them that Mark sent you.

    Love their Tuesday Steak and Lamb. Cooked perfectly and taste so delicious! The jalapeño mashed potato was different and also really good. Will definitely be back! Oh yea, bring cash, otherwise there's an atm machine in the back.

    Cute bartender, good drinks, and a laid back chill environment. The bar itself is very nice and there is lots of outside seating including a second story deck. I'll have to check it out again when they're hosting an event.

    Quite simply the best pub in town, best pint Guinness around, and you will be hard pressed to find a better pint in Texas. Family friendly, kid friendly, all the sport and TVs you need, no full kitchen but some light bites/pizza available. They also sometimes have rotating pop ups for food vendors. Great staff and owner.

    A very traditional style Irish Pub in the heart of Houston. A great location to go with friends or on your own to meet the local Irish community. They have all the Irish drinks as well as some rotating local craft beers. Be sure to check out their steak nights on Tuesdays for some excellent food.

    I made just a quick stop here, loved the ambience and the Irish pub spirit. I didn’t eat anything but I had the best Guiness that I had ever had in Houston. I felt like being in Dublin…

    Went on Tuesday for steak night. It was amazing! Thought I was gonna get a cheap rubber steak and turned out to be the best steak in Houston.

    Had a blast at Pimlico Irish Bar for their Tuesday steak night with @meatmojo. The steak was seriously on point - juicy and flavorful. The sides were also delish. Love the vibe of the bar, it's a great spot for a casual night out. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the mood for a yummy steak dinner!

    Love it here! My neighborhood bar. They prepare great dry martinis and the place has so much personality. Love going there to play darts. Nice crowd and never crazy crowded.

    I walked in on a whim because it’s right next to my apartment. I ended up having one of the best nights of my life! Highly recommend.

    The service was impeccable. The pizza, sandwiches, and drinks were great, but I will definitely return for the Guinness. Hopefully the temperature drops because the outdoor space looks very inviting.

    This is a great neighborhood bar with amazing staff and attention. We come here on Tuesdays when Meat Mojo serves the best Houston steak night. Servers are always great, I'll be back soon enough!

  • 3/5 Ben B. 7 months ago on Google
    The food on Steak Night is literally better than Ruth Chris and that's hard to come by, however, there are no prices, so ask first. They will try and take you. The bottle beer in the coolers is Ice Cold. There are no servers. If you are not sitting at the bar you need to get up every single time you want a drink. The Atmosphere is outstanding, I love the layout of the place. These are the facts of the case, and they are undisputed.

    Great bar. They care about Guinness. Jacquie was wonderful. I hope to be there again soon.

  • 5/5 Jesse P. 10 months ago on Google

    Went for a spurs game against arsenal at 8am. One of my best bar experiences ever. The owner is super hospitable and friendly.

  • 5/5 Juzar M. 5 months ago on Google
    Excellent place to chill out in the evenings especially now that Fall is around. Look forward to Tuesday’s and Thursday’s when an external steak and lamb chops vendor sets up here to serve dinner.

  • 5/5 Miguel O. 3 months ago on Google New
    We had a great time here. Good selection of beers, tasty cocktails. Everyone: bartenders, staff, and the manager were awesome. I am looking forward to trying the steak night next time.

  • 5/5 Heidi H. 5 months ago on Google
    Alicia and her husband do a great job cooking. We tiped her 30$. Thanks for the great food and service from both the bar and that awesome Chef.

  • 4/5 Carry S. 11 months ago on Google
    Bartender was very attentive. This is a nice after work place to hang out. Mojito is priced at $9 so not too bad for mid-town. They don’t have a food menu but they do offer slices of pizza and toasted sandwiches. I’ll definitely be coming back

  • 4/5 L. M. 11 months ago on Google
    Went for steak night solely. Atmosphere is awesome, drinks are overpriced (6 drinks $75), parking is pretty tight/very few spots. Steak and porkchop combo $36+. Steak was great, porkchop was dry. Side of sausage was the BOMB, best sausage I've ever had! Pineapple needs to be charred/grilled longer and jalapeño mashed potatoes need way less slivered chives, some butter and more spice. I left out of there full but with a hole in my pocket, $160. I could have eaten the sausage and been very content.

  • 5/5 Chris G. 1 year ago on Google
    First there for St Patrick's Day. Great event. Excellent service. Guiness was phenomenal. Tried the pulled pork which was good but a bit fatty. Overall great event and seems like a chill spot to hangout on normal days.

  • 5/5 Briley M. 2 years ago on Google

    Full bar on Tuesday night with meat mojo pop up store. Cool environment for dinner with groups. Not too noisy and plenty of parking spots

  • 5/5 Duke E. 1 year ago on Google
    Great spot to jump into for a drink, meeting up with friends or any occasion when considering adult beverages. Pizzas are good and hit the table fast.

  • 4/5 Van N. 3 years ago on Google
    Meat Mojo's steak nights are always delicious, but be aware that it can definitely be a wait to get your food.

    Ugh I wanted to like this place but it sucked! Normally Irish pubs have the best bartenders and best drinks. Not this place. Nope. If you're looking for an authentic good time Irish pub, this isn't it.

  • 5/5 Elissa E. 2 years ago on Google
    What a great place. The owner, Kevin, is so hospitable. We were celebrating my husband's birthday & Kevin was happy to find a space inside accommodate a group of 9. Great selection at the bar & on tap. No, kitchen, but the pizza they had got the spot as well.
