Christys Irish Pub is one of the best bars in New Haven. The owner and bartenders are very nice and professional. 5-stars easy!

Authentic Irish pub. Great food too! Good selection of beer on tap. Great selection of Irish Whiskey.Veggie burger is delicious. It’s house made.I wish they would offer the steak fries again which were my favorite.Good options for vegetarians. Nachos are great.

Yesterday was our first time we went to this fine restaurant. But It is obviously not the last time. We passed a splendid evening with the attentive service, with the superb cuisine and fine drinks and with the friendly payment. We will no doubt come back in a short time.

Food and prices good. Limited menu. Friendly waitstaff. Atmosphere was seedy, rundown neighborhood bar.

Absolutely the best place to watch soccer in Connecticut. I went here for a World Cup match and was so impressed — an amazing crowd, impeccable service, delicious food, and a huge selection of beer on tap.

I’ve been living in New Haven for two years now. A friend recently invited me to meet at Christy’s for a late night drink. He said it’s real New Haven. You meet locals and all manner of interesting people there, he said. I was very excited. A new spot in town to check out ain’t ever a bad thing. So come to Christy’s I did. Sadly, it was the opposite of what my friend promised. The place is dirty. And the service ain’t all that good either. I didn’t feel safe there at all. And I couldn’t trust the food or the drinks. It’s not a nice thing to do, writing bad reviews, but I feel it’s my duty to share feedback like this so that others can avoid the pain of having to experience what I did there. This place should be closed down. Or at the very least should improve its culture and service. New Haven deserves better bars. And there are amazing bars in town. But Christy’s ain’t one of them.

Yesterday I called in to have a Shepard’s pie puréed for my grandfather who is in the hospital on a liquid diet. They were so kind and accommodating, and when I sent someone to pick it up they didn’t charge me at all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and generosity. I really appreciated it and my grandfather was delighted to have a delicious meal. ️

Very enjoyable time. Everything was pretty good. Its an Irish pub though so the lighting in there, like the pubs over in Ireland, England and other places in Europe, was very dim. Upstairs TV, where we sat, wasnt working. Would have been perfect otherwise. But, 4.5 out of 5 for me

Good crowds and atmosphere, like your mom. Had to take a start away after being approached by a homeless kid named Cody who was trying to sell me, well you know, then he mumbled nonsense while shaking and walked away.i felt bad because I can tel he had issues but made it a weird time for me.

We usually just go here for a few drinks everyone now and then. Good service and comfortable atmosphere. Tonight we ordered food and were gravely disappointed. My onion rings were so over cooked that they crumbled when I touched them and my mushroom cap burger was more than just burnt. The food was unedible.

We went to Christys on Saint Patricks day, and were not very happy with it. We didnt eat so I cant judge the food, but there was no Irish atmosphere, no Irish music and the drinks were sub par. It got very crowded, and the waitresses were basically pushing people around. The bartenders were not helpful either. Not likeThe Christys we remembered. Very unfortunate

Review №53

They were highly rude, young guy bartending made some bad stories about being in the service. Started to flirt with my wife behind my back while using the restroom and charged me 8 buck for tap beer while I saw him pocket the rest. Wifes drink was flat to add to this all. Avoid at all cost if your looking for a bar to bring your lady to. This is no more than a hole in the floor in this area.

Review №54

Dark, narrow and loud of music. Beer-soaked aspect borne of a fierce and raucous sports bar. Food rough, plain. Enough beer makes any carbohydrate palatable.

Was very displeased with Christys Irish Pub.bartender was a young male covered in tattos. When my boyfriend and i Walked in we were not greeted by the bartender and waited about 5 minutes for him to finally take our drink order. Bartender waites till my boyfriend whent into the restroom to start flirting with me. He habded my my drink anf still hadnt placed my boyfriends drink down yet. After making it clear i wasnt interested in taljing he continued ti try to talk to me untill he saw ny boyfriend come out and then he walked away.He charged us $8.00 for two drinks on top. The cider i ordered was watered downand tasted horrible. Bartender was very rude and snappy when my boyfriend would try to have a conversation about the pub. Bartender would wait until my boyfriend would look away to try and smile at me and flirt more. Horrible service. Overly priced. Rude Behavior, and watered down cider. Stay clear of this pub.

The staff are welcoming, and they always have a nice selection of rotating drafts. The Tuesday late night traditional Irish music sessions are a blast, and anyone with an instrument or a drinking song in mind is welcome to join.
