McFadden's

Don't be fooled...It's not your Grandfather's Saloon

  • Perfect Place for After Work
  • More than 50 TV's for game day
  • Late Night-Private Parties

It starts during dinner with superior quality American fare with and specialty Irish dishes. The food, service and atmosphere truly are outstanding. But the food is only the tip of the iceberg. The best reason to get to McFadden's is for the party! Because once 5PM rolls around; McFadden?s really starts to hit its stride! McFadden?s is known for drawing a young professional crowd looking to unwind at the end of the work day. McFadden?s is an Irish Pub with a DJ! But don?t worry; you?ll never be blasted with techno or hip-hop music at McFadden?s. What you will hear is great, sing-a-long, party music that will make you want to get up out of your chair and shake those tail feathers. McFadden?s really is the ultimate party bar. Once we get you into McFadden?s we?re going to have a hard time getting you out. We'll see you soon!

Editorial Review for McFadden's – by Bevyn Rowland

In Short
The cavernous, dark wood-paneled space is an unassuming restaurant by day, but turns lively once the after-work crowd rolls in. Young suit-types take off their jackets and play pool after the first round of beers. On weekends, tables in the central dining room give way to a hopping dance floor. The all-night menu includes sloppy nachos and Gouda cheese sticks. The rest of the menu is served until 10pm and includes sandwiches and salads.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

While the bartenders don't cater to specialty-drink aficionados, they know their way around a Guinness tap. Honoring the two-part pour keeps true stout lovers happy.

When to Go

Weekend nights draw exceptionally large crowds; go early to get a table and avoid the tedium of standing in line at the door. Ladies get in free every Thursday night.

Where to Sit

Three large screens keep sports fanatics united at the larger bar, while laid-back banter rules the other smaller bar.

McFadden's Rox. I love this place. It's always a party! Comfortable, great drinks really great food. If you can work magic you never have to pay cover and if your HOT there's enough guys in this place you won't have to pay for a drink either. Highly recommend McFadden's on any given weekend Thursdays aren't bad either.

Pros: It's always rockin'

Cons: Not in the best part of town

So, a bunch of us girls went to McFadden's for a bachelorette party. While the music was good, the dancing was fun and the bouncer gave us a deal, the bartender left something to be desired. I stood there for a least a half hour, right in front of him, and asked for a drink at least twice, while he served up everyone around me...by the time he got to me, I ordered two and left no tip...I'm not unattractive, but I didn't have my chest busting out of my top...although, he seemed more interested in serving the guys...I watched him do the same thing to two other girls in my party and two other girls that had been in line behind me...this guy needs to do a much better balance of serving drinks up in timely manner. I'm used to waiting for a drink at a busy bar...but this was a joke...for that reason alone, I may not return!

Pros: music and dancing

Cons: bartender ignores you, even if you are at the front of the line
