What People Are Saying About Bridgid's

The Scene
At the front of the fire-lit dining room is a cramped, lace-curtained bar, where foreigners, neighborhood intellectuals, and beer nuts alike enjoy faux-European charm among walls crammed with vintage advertising art.
The Fare
The menu is an immense collection of lower-priced items that range from freezer-to-fryer appetizers to actual prepared entrees. Beware: The offerings are not always the bargain that they appear to be, but they are passable for the purposes of accompanying whatever selection you make from the immense beer menu. While no longer a leader among America's beer bars, the spoils from that former glory remain, including a re-creation of the original DownDraft beer system.

Terrific little place! - blues playing in the background when I was there a few weeks ago. the 3 of us in my group ordered 2 different entrees and we very impressed with the quality of the food. Very unpretentious, comfortable place. I will be back.

I like Bridget's. It's a cozy place. I like to sit at the bar. The beer selection is good and the food too. There is also a dining room and more space upstairs. This place is good enough to fall into the destination bar category.

A great little neighborhood bar frequented by the locals; you'll often see the same faces each time you go. Good bar food, good beer. There can be some pretty lively discussions among the customers which can be very interesting.

What To Drink:
There's always something new to try: The draft selections change as often as the taps run out.
Know Before You Go:
This tattered and well-worn room still serves up the same honest and tasty fare that made the one-time neighborhood tavern so popular.
When to Drink:
Weekday Happy Hours (4pm-6pm) sees $2 off Bridgid's coveted drafts and a buck off other drinks at the bar.
