This is like your friendly neighbor Irish bar-ish restaurant serving some comfort food. We went on a frigid winter Sunday for brunch.
My friend thought to introduce me to something in the West Village below 17th Street. The wood interior with tables and banquette lends to the pub like atmosphere but it was over loud like some pub like places.
We had a seat at the large comfy booth. Our server quickly greeted and handed us the menu. They had the usual suspects for brunch but what I eyed was the Fish and Chips and my friend got his usual when he comes here. The Full Irish breakfast and two Bloody Mary to start.
The fish came in a nice batter that was light and crispy, not oily at all and the fries were the same. Maybe I was use to the big slab of cod that would come out but here the fish looked like it was a bit hacked and two smallish pieces that kinda looked like scraps. My friend’s Irish breakfast looked pretty good with brown bits that we had to look at the menu to figure out what it was but either way it happily satisfied him.
The bright place was a good brunch place. Overall, a good pick. I’d probably be a little happier if my fish didn’t look like table scraps but it was cooked well and the meal was good. We were both happy but unhappy we had to face the cold again.
