What People Are Saying About John D Mc Gurks Irish Pub

The Scene – With its warm brick and wood interior and four bars and dining rooms from which to choose, McGurk's is one of the area's best finds for a cozy dinner or big get-together. A 20- to 30-something crowd comes for intimate atmosphere, Irish folk bands and a substantial wine and beer selection. But the gem in the restaurant's crown is its sprawling outdoor patio and bar, a cool urban oasis on any steamy summer night. – – The Food – The draw here is hearty comfort food. Young couples begin with starters of crisp chips with vinegar, then move on to a…

Best Irish Pub Overall!
by scotchirishlass at Citysearch
Let me tell you, this is a great pub! Best service: Lucky and Johnny, thanks always for top service and conversation! Delicious food, fish and chips are tasty. Anywhere we sit is wonderful. Outside at Johnny's bar or inside at Lucky's. Our friends and family feel at home here!
- Pros: Atmosphere and service
- Cons: Can be crowded-especially St. Pats and Mardi

You ain't seen a pub until you've seen McGurk's

This is the ultimate in "pubbery". Better and more beers on draft than most pubs, and excellent Irish food. The decor is wonderful and homey, and you feel as though you've been taken to an actual pub in Ireland. The grilled cheese is heavenly, and the lamb stew in hearty and satisfying. They have live Irish music at least 4 nights a week, but arrive early or you'll be standing. When dining, the live music adds a great ambience to a wonderful casual dining experience. The outdoor patio is great, especially when the weather is nice and you're with a group of friends. Prices couldn't be better for this sort of place -- go here before you try anywhere else.
- Pros: Bartenders/bar, Music, quality of food
- Cons: Street Parking

As a regular patron of the bar, I am, never disappointed in the service. The food is always above average to excellent. There is always live irish music 7 days a week. The Pub can get a little crowded on the weekends, so for dining get there before 8pm. There is always plenty of room though, with five rooms inside. Their outside patio is amazing with a huge main bar, and a smaller side one. The patio is heated and covered in the colder months. Once the weather warms up, it is one of the best outdoor bar patios in St. Louis.
