HEARTY MEALS THAT TASTE LIKE HOME 

They say “good sense is as important as food” – and we’re inclined to agree here at M. Fitzgerald’s.

Because we know a thing or two about great food, so call in and taste for yourself! 

COCKTAILS?

We might be a traditional Irish bar, but we’ve a fair idea how to make a good cocktail. In fact, our mixologists at Penny Bar are ready to mix up a lot of cracking libations to suit your personal preferences. And why wouldn’t you try one – sure, you can always go back to your pint of stout afterwards; it’s not going anywhere!.
