Description
Such a welcoming place that it equally suits the blue-collar after-work drinkers, the hungry neighborhood regulars at lunch and dinner and the preppily dressed west-county throngs on weekends. The standard pub fare is unquestionably good -- with an Irish stew worth dreaming about at night and a burger to make an idiot of yourself for -- but surprisingly, the hoity-toitier choices such as pesto tortellini and Bailey's cheesecake are just as expertly done, as if they've been part of the Irish repertoire for generations. More importantly, McGurk's, considered by many to be the pre-eminent Irish bar in St. Louis, pulls arguably the best Guinness in town. The tiny stage is host to live Irish music seven nights a week, ranging from rowdy sing-a-longs to traditional reels and jigs played by master folk musicians.
