A moody, deeply grained wooden bar with plenty of stool seating, welcoming banter, and a wall filled with too many bottles of liquor. Choices. There are so many. Sitting here might harken a trip to Dublin or some other city or neighborhood where a dive bar grabbed your fancy and didn’t let go. Irish Haven is that kind of place. Nobody will know your name but everybody will be glad you’re there. The neighborhood joint might remind you of your college hangout. Or maybe the place that rang familiar when you were on a solo trip and needed to feel at ease. Hunker down for your stay or walk to the back pool room and ask someone to tell you about the movie shot there. A jukebox will amp things up so suggest a song to the bartender and turn a casual night into festive fun.
