The Best Irish Bars in Seattle | Eater Seattle

"Molly Maguires might be the most neighborhoody Irish pub on this list. It’s tucked away in Stumbletown, a.k.a. West Woodland. Molly Maguires adds to the stumbling with no fewer than four classic Irish drafts: Kilkenny, Smithwick’s, Guinness, and Harp, alongside a number of other local and import brews. And yes, they still have their long-running free buffet here on certain days (as outed in a recent article in The Seattle Times), but be aware that it’s an intimate feed-the-neighborhood type of situation, and not set up (nor intended) as anything like a destination happy hour attraction. You can still hit it up even if you’re from Stumble City rather than Stumbletown, but we’d recommend hoisting a pint at, say, the excellent Thursday or Friday karaoke nights here first." - Mark DeJoy
