Killarney's Publick House Mercerville

With indoor dining on hold in the State of New Jersey trying to locate outdoor dining is rough even with the warmer weather. Some restaurants that offer outdoor dining still haven't opened at all or just aren't utilizing their outdoor space such as The Cheesecake Factory. Compounding the issue was trying to celebrate a friends birthday who was in Pa, one who is relocating and currently is on a military base, and me coming from central Jersey. Being a PST listener I stumbled upon Killarney's Publick House. Reservations are recommended. The link to directions are easy but didn't take the 25 minutes as indicated to arrive, more like 10-15. The outside area is setup with umbrellas so you are covered from the sun. As hot as it was you didn't feel the heat. Our Pa friend was late because of a freight train but the wait staff was very accommodating and friendly. Service was great. The drinks were refreshing and our apps and food did not disappoint. After my experience at an Irish Pub in New York city I never thought I would set foot in one again, but this food was really good. Then there's Seamus. He's just a really great guy that makes you feel welcome. So if you're in the area, or not like us, stop by for great drinks, food and say hi to Seamus. The music they play is great too. You might want to dance on their stage...but don't.
