We had our annual business meeting here today. The staff is outstanding. The pub is beautiful and the food is terrific. We started with coffee, tea, scones, and fresh fruit. The presentation was beautiful, the scones delicious and the fruit fresh and juicy. Afterwards the lunch did not disappoint. Vegetables, salmon, and chicken were prepared very well and the salad was green and fresh. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Loved the ambiance in this restaurant. Felt like I was in someone's home in Ireland. There was live music and a few guys sitting at the bar joined in with their own instruments. Fun atmosphere even on the slow night we were there. Food was typical Irish pub fare and what we had was good (except for the mashed potatoes, surprisingly)! Four stars for ambiance.

I've been wanting to go to and try Josie Kelly's Public House for quite some time now and I finally had the chance to go this past weekend with my fiancé. It's a great Irish pub located in a historical building with a restored interior that pays homage to Irish heritage. Josie Kelly's has a welcoming and traditional feel of a coastal pub from the west coast of Ireland. Here, you can relax while enjoying traditional Irish fare, whiskeys, craft beers, and other libations that's accompanied by banter and live music. I would definitely go back again.

We were able to get a table right away on a Friday around 6:15 pm in mid-May! Food and drinks were great! I had a magically delicious martini & the French onion grilled cheese with fries. The fries were so good, I couldn't stop eating them even though I was so full! They had a kids menu, and my son had a hot dog and fries. We were seated near a speaker so the music was a bit loud...so just be prepared for a mid to high noise level in here if it's busy! They have a parking lot which is super convenient.

I hosted my best friends' bridal shower at Josie Kelly's, and I would highly recommend them for all of your event needs! Heather was so easy to work with and was super attentive throughout the process! Our bartender and server for our event were so sweet and accommodating, too! The upstairs whiskey bar is a beautiful spacious room. The food and drinks were good. Overall, we had a lovely experience working with this pub.
