Drop Kick Murphy's

A modern take on an Irish pub, this bar, right in the heart of Florida Road's lively center, offers a range of craft beers, signature cocktails, and comfort food like the local classic chicken livers panfried in peri-peri (hot sauce made from bird's eye chili), Philly Chili Steaks, deep-fried chicken wings, and a salad with homemade fish cakes. Happy Hour from 5 to 6 each day offers half-price on drinks and cocktails and 25% off burgers, craft beers, and draughts. A late-night (9:30–midnight) food menu keeps the hungry fed, and friends gather here to watch rugby matches and contribute to the festive atmosphere. Expect loud Irish singing at times.

Billy the BUMS

This place hums from the early evening until late. It also serves tasty small meals, like jalapeño poppers.
