Kilkenny's Irish Pub & Grill 1413 E. 15th St.


A jewel of a pub with its dark woods and antique furniture, Kilkenny's has an authentic old world atmosphere (REALLY authentic: the entire interior CAME from Ireland) and a menu that draws on old, traditional Irish recipes. Phoebe and I have been here a number of times and continue to enjoy the experience. They offer a wide selection including potato pancakes, called "Boxty," stuffed with your choice of corned beef, crab, shrimp, veggies and even salmon. I tried the veggie version and it was great. A real "stick-to-your-ribs" meal. They have bangers and mash, shepherds pie, salads, sandwiches, seafood, and even a few pasta choices. Fish and chips are always good.

While we didn't partake of their alcoholic libations, they are amply endowed to satisfy your needs in this area.

Their desserts include a Sticky Toffee Pudding (great!), bannanas O'Foster and a stuffed baked apple!
