“ This was our first time here & was not aware there are no servers that take your order. If this was posted by other reviewers or was on the website, I would not have suggested it to be our family dining place. Pics of the food were accurate & it was very delicious. Since you have to order at bar, our appetizer came out with the complete dinner plates. Just would have been nice to know all of this before hand. ”
“ Came in shortly after opening on a Saturday (after New Years). The service was fantastic! We sat at the bar and Ashtyn was our Bartender. There was also another girl back there, unfortunately we didn't get her name. But both girls were awesome. Friendly and attentive! We ordered drinks which were really good and promptly served.. our orders were taken quickly... the food came out as expected and quickly. My husband ordered the Ruben and I had the fish and chips. The Ruben was among one of the best I have tried. The fish and chips were ok. Me being from Alaska I am used to something a little different.... but my Husband and son (who got the leftovers) said they were great. Overall. We all agree the fries are awesome! Fresh cut and very obviously homemade!!! I am so glad we finally got to come and visit... now that we live close I am sure we will be there a lot more.... Again, I want to really emphasize how great the service was! (Side note: the bathrooms could use a little attention) ”
“ Just simply perfect! Such a wonderful environment with great food and staff. Dalton, where to begin other than he is a great human being and wonderful bartender and server. Honestly, one of the best I have had anywhere in the country, and here he is is Richmond KY holding it down and setting the bar high for all others! Food was well above what was expected and the entire team here is THE BEST, including management! Apologies as I couldn't stop eating to take pics I wanted but grabbed a few. If you have not tried Paddy's then you are truly missing out. Come in with a decent attitude and you will leave elated! Thanks Paddy's team, you rock my face off! ”
“ Great place for lunch. We loved the Philly Cheese Steak sandwich and the Pizza. Generous portions. Ended up taking some home to have for another meal. Staff was friendly, quick and efficient. Food was quick out of the kitchen, fresh and hot. ”
“ Your typical bar food, ok but not great. Bar is fun, a bit dusty, but cute. Bar tenders were a bit inattentive but a fun placevto hang out. ”
