Manhattan - Irish Pubs

Now my husband wants to know about Irish pubs within walking distance of 55th & 7th...........am thinking they must be as plentiful as delis !! Any favorites that would also offer a sandwich with a cold one?

St. Andrew's is one of the best pubs in NYC ... 120 W. 44th Street ... and the food is good to.

A little farther south, check out mega-pub Stout:

I love St. Andrews, the epitome of a good Scottish pub. Does it pass for Irish too?

I third St. Andrews (Scottish, though, not Irish).

What's the difference?

(between Scottish & Irish & any other, really)

Serve Guinness, throw up a shamrock, and you're "Irish".

Gekko, please let me know when you're going to say "what's the difference?" between Irish and Scottish when you're near any of my Irish or Scottish friends. I want to make sure I'm not in the same state at that time.

My favorite Irish pub in Manhattan is Maggie's Place at 21 East 47 Street. It is a small intimate place with a fine clientele. I found this place many years ago when a group of bagpipers left the St.Patrick's Day parade before it ended and scampered to this tavern for their ale. I followed them and my curiosity paid off
because it was a great "find" with great food and drink.

Ha Ha! Good one! Very true.

Having visited both Ireland & Scotland multiple times, I certainly appreciate the differences ... but it doesn't really extend to Manhattan taverns.

Islay single malts ... my favorite.

It absolute extends to taverns! Maggie's is a lovely little place. O'Casey's on 41st street off of 5th Avenue has great food, too.
