Blackthorn Irish Pub - New Brunswick

I love this place! Phil the Bartender gets my voice for the coolest guy I met while I was in NJ. The vibe? You could say everyone knows each other and love is strong. Try the Shepherds Pie! Oh, my God!

Not bad, good selection of drinks. Overpriced. Had Färger and Maische, who was good, but not worth the price. It seemed to be a server, including the bar. Still a good service.

The appetizers were really good. Beer and sandwiches were okay. Expects a better service than water was served only upon request. The bread pudding tasted good, but an ice cream with it would have been better than whipped cream. The disadvantage is that everything is very affordable here.

I can only comment on the weekday lunch experience but the chicken Caesar salad was very good and all the tap beer tasted like they cleaned the taps properly. Very chill, bartender sang along to barenaked ladies. Solid place to kill time near the Hyatt.

First visit here. Doing a review for another Foodie group.Nice pub feel, different levels/seating areas. Took my daughter so I could try more food. Lol. Started with Irish onion soup. Very flavorful, good mix of cheeses and good crusty bread. Then Irish nachos. A star among appetizers, wonderfully addictive. Great blend of flavors. Entrees were Shepherd's pie and Bangers and mash. Both were extremely good. And then dessert was a highlight! Wow, an Irish cream bread budding that was divine! All the food was very well plated and presented. Service was good. Looking forward to going back soon.
