Best Reuben in NE. Corned beef is the real deal. Great Service. Very good beer selection. Tasty dessert. And extremely reasonably priced. Never, ever disappointed. Enjoy!read more

The menu here is what you expect from an Irish pub; a lot of frozen foods dropped in a fryer and a few decent Irish-inspired comfort foods. There are a lot of beers to choose from and a decent cocktail list. If you catch one of the bartenders who knows how to make a good drink, you probably won't be disappointed (although they did raise all of their prices recently). Now for the cliched "I only gave one star, but I would have given less if I could" part. The vibe in here is horrible. It's clear very quickly that some of the staff do not have boundaries with customers and other staff. I would even go as far as to say this establishment is unsafe. Some "bouncers" can be seen man-handling female customers without cause while turning a blind eye to actual threats, fights, and overly intoxicated patrons. If you're BFFs with the bartender, you'll get your drink fast (and probably strong). Otherwise, expect a wait and curt service. The entire atmosphere here has spiraled dramatically downhill recently, and I can only suspect that is due to ownership.read more

Great pub! The Bartender was very knowledgeable and friendly. We went there after getting married and he was super happy for us and made us feel good. They have a killer artichoke dip, it came out with some broken chips but Chris saw it and made it right and got us some fresh full chips.read more

Excellent food. Friendly service. Fantastic beer menu. Good view of the ocean. Logistics could use a little work: no silverware at our table, no side plates with appetizers, asked for coleslaw on the side, got it on the plate soaking into entree, no salt on the table, etc.read more

We got to town Friday night and wanted to stop somewhere for a drink and a quick bite to eat. We are glad we stopped here. Service was excellent. Food was good. There was a DJ upstairs around 10. The music wasn’t too loud so you could still have a good time at the bar downstairs.read more

Best Guinness in America. Super food and wonderful service. My favorites include the Limerick Sandwich and Bangers and Mash. On Thursdays the Corned Beef and Cabbage is just like my grandmother made. Great value.read more

Good spot in Bristol. I had the Fish and Chips and was pleased. Cod fish real clean taste fried to a crispy perfection. Service was fun our waitress was a blast. I do not drive to this spot parking can be tight. I ride down the local bike path and enjoy Bristol that way. I highly recommend this no issues parking a bicycle. Price also might be a turn off but this restaurant is priced cheaper or the same as others in the area. Thank you for a great time and food Aidan's Pub staff!read more

Very Nice Establishment 👍 On the Corner of Thames Street. Aidan's Has Their Own Parking Lot. Outdoor Seating on Two Levels with a Bar. Food and Ambiance Were Top Shelf. Reasonable Pricing. However Their Is an Exception (Hence, Only 4 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟) When the Price of a Mixed Drink, ($12) Exceeds the Price of a Meal, One Has to Question What IS Reasonable and Customary.read more

I first went there with a friend, who treated me for my birthday. The food is beyond GREAT. The fish and chips are huge portions. Fresh fish daily. Music on Sundays . Just a beautiful Irish restaurant. Take your family and enjoy the park across from the pub. There's outside and inside seating. Enjoy fresh food. I got the mountain meatloaf. Just perfect 😊❤️😊😊.read more

Decided to check out Aidan’s for a Father’s Day lunch. We’ve lived in East Bay for decades but had never been. Food, atmosphere, and service rocked! The fish ‘n chips and barbecued brisket were excellent. Our server A.J. couldn’t have been more gracious and helpful as my husband peppered him with questions about the menu. The burgers that passed by our table on their way to other patrons looked amazing, and the pub is impeccably clean. Looking forward to dining upstairs on the deck next time. Oh, and reasonable prices too. Don’t know how we missed this gem, but Aidan’s will definitely be our new favorite hangout!read more
