"With its black wood facade wrapping around the corner of an old brick building in the Financial District, Mr. Dooley’s beckons passersby with the promise of “a pint and a chat.” This pub is better known for its impromptu traditional music sessions than raucous parties. Expect glasses of beer from Irish bartenders who have been perfecting their pours over decades, and smooth Jameson Irish Whiskey served neat. Throughout St. Patrick’s Day weekend, the bar opens early with a nearly nonstop lineup of live Irish music." - Molly McDonough
