Reviews for John D. McGurk's Irish Pub and Garden in St. Louis, MO

After a great Irish music concert we had to visit the one and only best Irish pub in Saint Louis! The potato soups is a must! ... Burgers are always great! The shrimp appetizer with bacon and ginger barbecue sauce was outstanding! A good selection of Irishwhiskey and it was a perfect evening! Read more

Great apps. Not many wine selections here. The atmosphere is busy. My favorite part is the covered patio area. The largest... covered patio area I have seen in the city. Can't say I would be back but my experience was decent. Read more

Amazing place they have a gorgeous out door garden area with multiple fountains and ponds. The food is amazing and authentic... Irish cuisine. I got the fish and chips and my husband got the cornbread sandwich. We had a great time. Read more

Fun place with a strong Irish culture. The food and music all reflect the people of Ireland. Great selection of Irish food. ... Waiter was excellent. McGurks is located in Soulard. There is a parking lot one block west on Russel, which iswonderful. Only negative was how loud it was in there. My app on phone measured an 85 which is pretty uncomfortable. Read more

Love the environment and live Irish music was great. Food was okay - bangers and mash are kind of bland, but sauce is what makes... it. I don't like mustard, but the sauce was pretty good. Wait staff was great. Prices are a little high, but unique cuisine thatis a must try. Read more

Wonderful environment and fantastic food. Staff very polite and on top of things for the most part. My only complaint would be... the woman's bathroom never got a refill of soap or paper towels while my friends and I were there after over and hour when oneof us went back there again. That being said, I still highly recommend this place and don't blame the serves for not being ableto attend to the restrooms properly due to how busy they were. I love the fact that the band was from Ireland and theexperience was one I will never forget. The food tasted amazing and the drinks were wonderful as well. I loved the atmosphereand will for sure be returning in the future. ???? Read more

Great place to eat and drink with friends. We went here for our company team building dinner. It looks deceivingly small from... the outside but there is a ton of indoor and outdoor seating. In the back of the building is a big area that is rented andheated with a cool coy pond water feature. I ordered the pretzel bite, bacon wrapped shrimp, and onion ring appetizers as wellas the herb salmon. All the food was really good. Much better than I?d expect from a place with ?pub? in the name. Woulddefinitely return again. Read more
