On a recent Saturday evening we went out to try the new Irish pub in Scotch Plains, Darby Road.
As soon as you walk in the place screams Irish Pub. The bar has several televisions all showing some type of sporting event. One entire wall is decorated by the scarves of various soccer teams.
We were quickly seated and our waitress took our drink order. After our drinks arrived we ordered. The menu is comprised of "standard" pub fare with a few standouts. We started with the Onion Soup Dumplings appetizer. Less than ten minutes later the dumplings arrived at our table. Imagine carmelized onions in a wonton wrapper that is simmered in onion soup. The dumplings are put on a plate and provolone cheese is baked on top of them. Delicious!
In a rarity for us, we both ordered the same thing, there was a Hanger Steak special. The amount of steak we each got was almost criminal, they were HUGE! There was also a mound of mashed potatoes and the most delicious green beans either one of us had ever eaten.
We were told that the Chicken and Waffles, Shepards Pie and the burgers are the standouts on the menu.
We'll definitely be back!
