Sean wrote on Dec 5 at 10:15 pmMeh, I'm unimpressed. The bar itself is very cool, with a great atmosphere, great patio, and the like. The downer is the crowd. On weekends, it gets so crowded that it is nearly impossible to get back to your seat with your drink intact (if you managed steal a chair from somebody, that is), and you run the risk of being assaulted by a roided out 19 year old who has had one too many Jager bombs. Try it on a week night, when you can enjoy the experience.

John wrote on Nov 11 at 11:31 amOverall I really like McCarthy's. It is what you would imagine a pub to be. It has . . . I think 3 bars if you count the spider's well. It has cool Irish stuff all over the bar. Plays alot of U2 and Irish Car Bombs are pretty much a necessity. It can get a little packed, with popped collars and name brands on the weekends, but overall it is a pretty good time.

toddorama wrote on Oct 23 at 8:35 pmMcCarthy's is the best! Especially enjoyable on nights like Monday and Wednesday, small cool crowd, can talk to the bartenders, and you can get a table on the patio!

brandon wrote on Sep 24 at 8:40 pmMcCarthy's has one of the best outdoor patios in lexington. But McCarthy's can get a little crowded on the weekends but most of the bars in downtown lexington do.

Nicholas wrote on Sep 12 at 6:24 pmHaving been to Ireland, I can say that this is a very authentic Irish pub! Overall, it's a great location and atmosphere. I do avoid it late Friday and Saturday nights when the obnoxious college crowd forms a queue into the street.
