The Irish Pub and Inn is located a block from the beach and boardwalk. It’s been a staple in Atlantic City since it was established in 1900 and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city. It’s absolutely a throwback to the days of yesteryear in its ambience, mood and decor! Upstairs you’ll find 60 guest rooms and a gift shop. When you walk upstairs from the pub you’ll be amazed. It’s a true gem!
The Irish Pub was a speakeasy during prohibition in the 1920’s as depicted in the television series Boardwalk Empire. It shrugged off the law and continued serving through prohibition but was raided by the Feds in 1922.
Joe DiMaggio and Willie Nelson
Many famous people visited and stayed there including Joe DiMaggio and Willie Nelson. In fact, there’s a Joe DiMaggio memorabilia room. The pub is open 24/7 and is one of the only establishments in A.C. allowed to serve alcohol 24/7 outside of the casinos. Many local fans and return guests will only drink here, not in any of the newer glitzy bars.
The Irish Pub’s food is delicious, as well as affordable, fast and friendly. You’ll be amazed at the prices on the menu. The restaurant is open daily. Hours are 11:30 a.m to close, and weather permitting you can dine on the patio daily from 6pm.
The Irish Pub is located at 164 St. James Place (think orange properties on the Monopoly board) and the Boardwalk, Atlantic City, NJ 08401 and can be reached by calling 609-344-9063.
