Found this one on a bar hopping. Awesome menu, bar and service.
I asked many different shooters from their incredible menu, all of them were great. They have shooters, margaritas, martinis, you name it. I had even a Pomegranate martini! I could give all my money to a pub like this!
Their problem, in my opinion, is the very loud live music. When a band is playing live, indoors, they have to be really careful so their loudness won't bother who is trying to keep a conversation. The band was good, but at a bad I'd like to talk and I had a VERY HARD TIME doing this. So please help my night become better and adjust your volume.
Despite the OMG LOUD MUSIC, the bar is good and I'd come back. -

I had a couple of enrolment seminars to conduct today in the Yonge/Eglinton E area. I was hungry after the second one so had a late lunch at Scruffy Murphy's which was nearby.
I like pubs. Alas, since it was midday and I was driving, I had a Diet Coke rather than a draft.
It's a cute pub and there were a few people scattered about.
I was torn between the Homemade Butter Chicken or Scruffy's Meatlovers Pizza (bacon, hot Italian sausage, ground beef, cheddar, mozzarella and tomato sauce). My server suggested the pizza. I love love love pizza so pizza it was.
It was okay. It was really chunky with meat and there was lots of cheese ... so no complaints about the amount of condiments. The crust wasn't so great, though. The texture reminded me of a frozen pizza.
When I'm in that area again, I'll stop in for a beer a meal. -

our friend's band performed here on St Patty's- they were great.
The bar is your typical Irish pub, esp on St Patty's Day- loud, drunk, sloppy...and i can't believe they charged us $10 cover. eeeeks.
other than that- typical -

In terms of set up, they got this place right. They have a nice patio outside for evenings in the summer (not great for the day though because it is shady) and a mix of high top tables and bench seating inside.
They must do live music regularly because every time I've been there it's been playing. The bands have been good too.
I'm going to sound like an old foggy for saying this but the music is way too LOUD. I can barely carry on a conversation with the person sitting right next to me in this pub.
I also happen to know it's a good crowd on St. Patrick's Day.
This is a pub I tend to avoid in the winter, and stop by occasionally in the summer to have a beer on their patio.Listed in: Yonge and Eglinton, Pubs around Yonge and Eg

Wings are not that good and if you're having a special on wings, 1lb + pitcher..10 wings as opposed to 7 would be more of a deal considering they charge $20! No deal here folks... atmosphere was a very UK bright lit pub, no music, very hum drum.. although it was a Sunday

The service, food, drink selection and overall atmosphere is great. Sometimes the house bands playing are rather loud which is a bit of a downside but it shouldn't stop you from going. Definitely worth checking out.

Good staff. Good service times. Pleasant clientele and atmosphere. Great Irish-style brunch. Prices are ok. Sports TV is pretty good.

Good food, great service, no cover charge (really Philthy's what is wrong with you?!). The music isn't too loud, the dining area isn't too dark, the menus are clean of any leftover food remnants. Really, everything I like in an Irish Pub. I would go again, but I didn't find anything outstanding.

Philthy Mcnasty's tried cheating us out on 5 bones, so we walked one door over to Scruffy Murphys! I have been back a few times now! The food isn't over priced, and you get a massive portion of fries. The beer is also not over priced! And beer is almost always good.
The staff here is super outgoing. Even when it's not a busy night, they aren't the type to be hiding in the kitchen and the bathroom. I have run into an instance where the waitress was a little bit odd when she id'd me.. I won't go into that. But it's not enough to break the almost-perfect score!
It's just the bathrooms that throw me off. It's the same with millions of places, but I just couldn't help to mention it. It's not very clean. -

I've been to this place on more than one occasion. Once was for New Year's Eve and every time it was a great place to be. The live shows are usually good old rock and roll cover bands. The food is alright, I wouldn't go there for dinner. The cajun fries and the nachos are good to down with the beers. They got the Kilkenny and the Guinness so it's all good. Oddly enough one evening we went there instead of Philthy's also because they were asking for a cover... pathetic. If I want to just sit and eat some food I'm not giving you 5 dollars to sit.

I have been hear several times now and it is pretty good. Their take on Spring Rolls are interesting. Several beers on tap to choose from.
Not sure how condusive the layout is to a pub though. Multi smaller levels. We will see. If it were me I would take the next layer up and switch the seating to a better pub style and put in a really big screen.
Good place to go on a Sunday afternoon to watch the football game. -
