Restaurant | "Conor O'Neills"
Dinner and lunch are quite exceptional. I have eaten at Conor's many times, and have never had a bad meal. The portions that they serve always makes me ask for a doggy bag! During the warmer weather seasons, they have tables outside on Main Street in downtown Ann Arbor, and it's nice to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. But it can get noisy too! If you want to sit and enjoy some Irish music, watch their calendar of events because they do have traditional music nights there as well as Pub Quiz night, which is a fun way to test the unimportant trivia that sticks in the average human's brain! They have a fully stocked bar with many interesting liquors and beer. Of course though, this is an Irish pub, so Guinness is on tap and there is alway the Irish whiskeys to chose from too! Try their curry with your fish-and-chips (Irish style).
And for dessert.... why don't you try the guineess ice cream sunday. It is guiness flavored ice cream (really it's delicious!) with chocolate sauce on top! Even though this is a pub, and serves alcohol, often you can see the families come in with their children, too. It has a very warm and inviting atmosphere for young and old, very true to the roots of a traditional Irish pub. Don’t go for the Sunday brunch, though. It's not really that good--the back bacon was tough, hard, and dry, and the eggs were way overcooked on their breakfast sandwich.
