    The beer is great, the live music is wonderful, and the space is beautiful. I'm telling you right now, the fried fingerling potatoes are the best thing on the menu. I've heard rumors that people swear by their burgers as well. It's a shame their steak sandwiches are dry. Had it twice to be sure. Otherwise a great spot!

    Can't escape the Irish accents here. Paired with great cocktails and skilled bartenders it is a dynamic engaging experience.

    My ideal kind of place. New outside seating really adds to the atmosphere. They had all my favorite types of whiskey and all served the right way. Service was great and accommodating to us sitting outside even on a cold day. Might be one of my new favorite places on ditmars.

    I'm usually disappointed when I order a breakfast burrito but this one was delicious. Our waitress was one of those people who just spreads good vibes everywhere she goes. This is also on the quiet side of Astoria so overall, a really great experience.

    Went there to celebrate a friend's birthday. An attentive and friendly staff, great food. I had honey BBQ wings, delicious. Can't wait to try everything on their menu. They also have a separate tap for Guinness. Recommend for anyone looking to go out with friends, with your loved ones, or on a date.

    The lunch special is a fantastic deal, changes regularly and is always speedy and fresh. Servers are fantastic and friendly (shoutout to Emer!) and the vibes are always great. Our favorite spot in the neighborhood!

    Very enjoyable local gastro pub, tasty food and good drink selections. The kitchen sadly is not big enough to keep up on a busy day and the service team does not seem to be adequately prepared to provide a great service during busy times. I'm sure coming during non peak times can warrant a great experience but don't expect the best during brunch times, it just isn't going to happen unfortunately.

    Stopped in for brunch on a rainy Sunday, got a seat at the window right away. Handicap accessible entrance and bathrooms. Outdoor space year round except when it's raining. Super friendly server, the menu is small but they do have gf and vegetarian options. I got the short rib burrito and my friend got the hippie omelette, and we got a peanut butter hot chocolate and a hot toddy. Came out super fast and we loved it!

    The menu has lots of great options to choose from. The food was great and the service was every better. The place is very aesthetically pleasing. Gerry or Jerry (not sure of theq spelling) was a very friendly bartender that made us feel welcome.

    Great food, chill and comfortable atmosphere, friendly bartenders (I think one might be an owner), and they have my favorite bourbon, which I rarely see anywhere else. Great addition to upper Ditmars.

    Love the decor, and the fact they sell authentic Irish goods! Food is delicious and cocktails are creative. Probably the best place in my hood for a Guinness, hands down.

    Excellent cocktails Huge fan of the American Dream, which is a consistently strong and spicy drink I could probably have with breakfast if only they’d open earlier. Service is pretty good even when the bar gets busy.

    Classy Irish bar not a bad place but the drinks are a bit overpriced.

    I popped in at 3am so it was quiet but, I liked the vibe and decor. I'll be back at an earlier hour for the full experience.

    Came here for brunch on a Saturday afternoon. The place was pretty quiet which was nice, and prices were reasonable for similar brunch spots nearby ($12 for French toast / BLTE croissant). Had a cheeky cocktail too, for the same price as the food, and was suitably strong.

    Place is unique and looks really nice and good!I like to hangout here with my friends and enjoy in some beer and Burgers… The food is really good and delicious

  • 5/5 Maxwell L. 9 months ago on Google • 45 reviews
    Happy hour oysters are not the best in the city but still a great deal. The burgers here are also a pretty decent size and cooked well.

  • 5/5 Lino P. 2 months ago on Google • 38 reviews New
    I've been here a handful of times and always enjoyed my visit. I wish the beer selection was larger and that's my only complaint. And maybe I wish there were more healthy menu items (I know, Irish pub). Like a grilled chicken sandwich, maybe a filet of fish that's not deep fried. (But the fish&chips are *amazing*) Go, get your Irish on. Slainté!

  • 5/5 Josh E. 4 months ago on Google • 33 reviews
    We had the chicken curry empanadas and the short rib spring rolls really good! Old fashion drink was great and I had the short rib sandwich. Live music was dope we all had a great time highly recommend on a night out

  • 4/5 Jon F. 6 months ago on Google • 9 reviews
    Stopped in on a whim while walking down Ditmars on a weeknight with the family and was pleasantly surprised at the delicious food (double smash burger, wings, chicken fingers and fries were all tasty and well-cooked), attentive and kind service (especially regarding our little ones) and chill vibes. Will definitely come back to try more of the menu!

  • 5/5 fernando l. 6 months ago on Google • 4 reviews
    I went in with some friends for dinner and had an amazing time. Our server, Tanya, went above and beyond for us. I wasn’t sure what to order but she helped me select the steak sandwich which was exactly what my taste buds were after! I’ve never been here but now they’ve got a dedicated customer out of us. Definitely recommend and ask for Tanya because she will make your evening as great as she did ours.

    Went for brunch today, and I gotta say, out of all the places in Astoria, this one really shines. Good prices, good service, very cozy but lively atmosphere. Our waitress was delightful and the french toast bites were amazing.

  • 5/5 Rômulo F. 1 year ago on Google
    The best pub in Astoria Ditmars area. Great food, cold beer and flawless service! Live music makes the place even better!

  • 5/5 Elisabeth P. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice outdoor distancing and menu selection.

  • 4/5 Maria Lago B. 2 years ago on Google
    This Irish place is a must go if you like cocktails and a good beer. The place itself reminds you of a pub in Ireland. They have multiple options for food, however, the service sometimes is not the best.

  • 4/5 KLAEYZ 1 year ago on Google
    The beef stew is excellent. Get it. However, the double smash burger wasn't smashed.. it was two normal patties with zero browning on either sides of them. Other than that this place is pretty great. Excellent fish'n'chips, great vibes, and always good music.

  • 5/5 Reena D. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely love this place. Food is consistently delicious. I get the veggie sandwich. Truffle fries and beet salad. drinks are good. So good!! Music is awesome! Servers are great! Very welcoming and unpretentious.

  • 5/5 Afifa M. 1 year ago on Google
    Went there for brunch. I got bottomless mimosas and French toast. Both were great, but especially the French toast. I love French toast but seldom find French toast that I like. I loved this one, so will definitely be going back for it. Our sever was great and I loved the vibe of the place.

  • 5/5 Steph S. 1 year ago on Google
    Love the Happy Hour and food is always great. Shoutout to Nick, the bartender. He was super attentive, friendly, and makes a legit spicy margarita!

  • 5/5 Pat S. 1 year ago on Google
    Jack jones is one of my favorite places in the neighborhood. Everything on the menu is great. The farmers burger induces a nap. So be careful. The smash burger is one of the best in the neighborhood

  • 5/5 Judy Soto (Judy S. 10 months ago on Google
    I had the Shepherd's Pie and was very impressed with the flavor and the size of the dish. The service was amazing. The atmosphere is very relaxed and comforting. Definitely a great place to grab some food and a cocktail. They also offer specialty drinks for those that prefer non-alcoholic beverages. What a great find!

  • 5/5 Mary L. 10 months ago on Google
    Restaurant is on the corner and it's a perfect spot to chill with friends and family. The staff is super friendly and the service was superb. I would definitely recommend the short rib grilled cheese is a great sandwich. Don't forget to checkout the inside,..we sat outside because it was a beautiful day.

  • 5/5 Ms. Angel's Roc U TV W. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is Amazing!!! Especially with Noe' Socha Guitarist & Harmonica player who features singer and songwriter Angel Milyon :) Alternate Monday's... We invite you to come out to our shows there and enjoy really good eats and drinks great service a nice vibe🥰👍

  • 5/5 Belvizen S. 9 months ago on Google
    As my experience in nyc restaurants as a costumers sometimes we might not like something we order regarding cocktails I came here for some drinks and bites I ordered a mezcal cocktail first sip there’s some taste that I don’t like I apologized to the bartender told her that i don’t like it might I have a vodka soda kept it simple for her she cleaned the drink and provided me another one but at the end she still charged me even tho she know I didn’t like i still tipped 20% cause it might be my fault not picking the right cocktail but not the best last impression to leave with . Beside this everything was good . I put 5 start cause this can be fixed easily

  • 5/5 Jordan R (. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food and drinks served by excellent people. Haven't had a Guinness that good since I was in Ireland proper. Their lunch special (food+beer for ~$14) is unbeatable, but come back for brunch and get their incredible Irish breakfast. Love coming to this place again and again, and look forward to every visit.

  • 5/5 Maura F. 6 months ago on Google
    Came here with my family! We had the steak sandwich and curry chicken while my daughter had the sliders. Food was yummy and we found the staff couldn't do enough for us. Definitely a place I'd recommend to go to! I will be returning!!

  • 4/5 Jimmie T. 4 years ago on Google
    Friendly service and good drinks. Still haven't tried the food.

  • 5/5 Courtney W. 3 years ago on Google
    Great drinks great service

  • 5/5 Bianca M. 4 years ago on Google
    I highly recommend it. Andy was amazing. Super helpful . This place has a look of a 'trendy place' but has a feel of your 'neighborhood bar' prices are 'reasonable' for Astoria. They card at the door, so don't bring your niece or cousin that is under age.

  • 4/5 Carlos A. 4 years ago on Google
    Service is great. Attentive staff. Only had beers and wings. Left satisfied.

  • 5/5 Dave 3 years ago on Google
    One of the Best Bars in Astoria. Staff , crowd , cocktails and quality beer selection seperate it from most.

  • 5/5 Jeff E. 5 years ago on Google
    Great staff. Super friendly. Live Irish music. This is just a fantastic neighborhood bar, in an age where neighborhood bars are going away.

  • 5/5 Rory S. 3 years ago on Google
    These guys have found a way to stay open through this nightmare and they're all friendly and positive and super fun and the food is dynamic.

  • 5/5 ADRIAN G. 3 years ago on Google
    Super cute place with a very friendly staff.

  • 3/5 Mike R. 3 years ago on Google
    Ok cocktails, ok food, ok service. Real draw is the crowd is mostly friendly young locals and the location is a couple of blocks from all the loud action on Ditmars, so you can sit outside with some friends and not deal with loud car exhausts and Long Island posers.

  • 5/5 will T. 3 years ago on Google
    Great food, had the chicken sandwich with coleslaw and special sauce, very tasty. Outdoor seating and great corner.

    I honestly loved the whole vibe of the place, but my server Tanya really made the whole experience for me. She was super sweet, extremely attentive, recommended some great drinks I wouldn’t have thought to order on my own and just genuinely seemed happy to be there. I will definitely be back!

    Jack Jones is hands down my favorite neighborhood spot, and that's saying something because we're surrounded by great food options. Whether it's a cozy date night or a lively gathering with friends, the vibe at Jack Jones is always just right. The service is consistently friendly and attentive, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. I've tried numerous dishes here, and I can honestly say I've enjoyed every single one – I've never been disappointed. It's become my go-to place to bring friends and family when they're in the area because I know everyone will have a fantastic time. Jack Jones truly embodies everything I love about dining out: great food, great ambiance, and great service.

  • 5/5 Amanda S. 1 month ago on Google • 1 review New
    The restaurant was really busy for brunch and the food took a while, but service was pleasant and the waitress managed to keep up with our bottomless drinks despite being so busy. Food was good and we’d definitely come back.
