Hooligans Half Irish Pub - Cookeville

Good food and drinks, the servers are friendly and keep checking on your table, never have to worry about if your drink is going to run empty. The Shepherd's Pie and Fish Chips are two of my favorites on the menu. Can't go wrong with either of these meals. The Chicken Tenders are really good too. Hand breaded and crispy.

I stopped in for lunch on the way home from a hard rock festival on Aug. 27. The bartender was very welcoming kind, answering all 5280 of my questions about the town. (I’m thinking of eventual relocation. Every single one of the patrons were friendly as well; I could tell this was the kind of place that hooks a person on one visit!! The Hot Honey Wings were quite possibly the best I’ve had—in the words of S.Hagar, “hot, sweet, sticky”….and lunch priced (woo hoo!! And for dessert….well, whoever thought of peanut butter flavored tequila rum chata all in one glass deserves the Nobel Peace Prize!! I stayed waaaay longer than I intended—because, well, WORTH IT!! Visit this place immediately, if not sooner!!

Great margaritas and awesome bartender very relaxed atmosphere when back in that area will definitely stop by again

Good food, good atmosphere, good value for the money but not a place for Non-smokers. Smoke reeked in this place!

Hooligans is always one of the best places in Cookeville to have a drink. Plus they have a really good happy hour! Probably the best in town!
