Where is the Best Irish Pub in Miami, Florida?
Love it bec. it is an institution…I’ve never known it for its food and I’ve been here since 2000 but I’m not a big burger person. The best food items on the menu are the grouper sandwich and the pork chop special. I often get a hotdog since that goes w. beer and the sports which are all over the multiple tvs. And I annoy the waiters all the time by asking for the potato skins which are not on the menu. When they do have them they are awesome! Thin skins lightly fried sprinkled w. parmesan. I like all the pictures and mementos on the wall…I don’t know of a place that has better wall decor…similar to Big Cheese in that way but better. Pros + Fast Service and good place to have a beerCons – Food not the best and cash only
Ignore the fact that this pub’s locale is in the heart of South Beach, once you step through the doors you will leave the busy streets and beautiful people behind. The Playwright has a very cosy and welcoming atmosphere that envelops you. The food was top notch and prices average for engligh/irish pub fare. Try the Bangers and Mash for a real treat, the roast beef was also stellar and if you wanted to try something new order a Shandy – half harp/half sprite straight to you from the motherlandPros + Good Food, Huge TVs for games, average pricedCons – not a one
While visiting SOBE on business, a coworker and I decided to go shopping while our husbands hung out here, as this was they were drawn by the Pittsburgh Steelers football game being broadcast inside (great selling point of this place- they play more than one game, despite that the Dolphins were also playing that day). It was a great place for them to hang out, with reasonable prices. The one turn-off that ruined MY take on this place is that when hubby paid for his bucket of beers, the waitress refused to take his money because there was no tip added to his cash. I find it offensive when waitstaff ASKS for a tip, and it is common ettiquette for patrons to tip after the SERVICE has been COMPLETED. They had not planned for that to be their LAST bucket of beers. Therefore, they had planned to tip her at the end of their stay. We are usually generous tippers (myself having waited tables through college) but left a standard and sub-par 15% for this woman. A little honey goes further
