Ladies should probably leave the Blahniks at home. In traditional Irish-pub fashion, McSorley’s floor has been thoroughly scattered with sawdust to take care of the spills and other messes that often accompany large quantities of cheap beer. Established in 1854, McSorley’s became an institution by remaining steadfastly authentic and providing only two choices to its customers: McSorley’s Dark Ale and McSorley’s Light Ale. Both beverages have a lot more character than PBR, though at these prices, it won’t be long before you stop noticing.

Awesome! My first time - with my oldest daughter and oldest granddaughter. We were greeted by the waiter and bartender with the delicious ale. The atmosphere was like going back in time. My father-in-law tended bar here over 40 years ago. We are going back in July, excited thinking about it.
