My mum had visited Jim Brady's on a previous visit to NYC & raved about it so she was keen to return. We went for lunch on a week day. We were seated quickly, the staff were friendly and food came out really fast. I had a burger with sweet potato fries and my mum had the fried chicken. My fries were a little undercooked, it tasted like raw potato, they were hard, so unfortunately I left the majority of them, but the burger was tasty. My mum enjoyed her meal but found the chicken was dry and a little tough to cut. I didn't expect gourmet food, so it's fine, but I would probably stick to this venue for after work drinks in the future.
Standard Irish bar in FiDi but with a more down-to-earth and quieter vibe. Stopped by for after-work drinks with a friend before heading to an event nearby. The (minimal) crowd was in their 30s and seemed to be gathered in their own small cliques. Each beer was about 7 bucks. Seems like a good place to host small friends gatherings on weeknights.
I walked in here in jeans, a jacket, and a beanie during lunch time on a week day. Boy, did I feel out of place hanging out with half of Wall Street. I feel for those bar tenders and servers, all of the clientele seemed so picky about everything!
It was an interesting experience nonetheless, glad I came in and grabbed a snack. The staff was nice and the prices weren't too bad. I would probably come back for a drink if I'm in the area.
Jim Brady's screams Irish from the moment you step into the quaint parlor-like establishment, with the country's flags everywhere and clientele with charming accents. I'm aiming for more of a 3.5 star rating here, based on what I found to be a limited menu and an okay price range. I had the sausage and mash with onion, which was quite good. The coffee is freshly brewed and flavorful as well. However, my boyfriend's chicken pot pie was just okay, which led me to doubt the robustness of the rest of the menu. The ambiance also just wasn't for me, but can serve as a great haunt for someone missing their home country.
In my previous life, I worked in the Financial District and spent countless happy hours at Jim Brady's.
Circumstances brought me back last week, and I'm glad to see it hasn't changed. It's a proper pub with proper Irish bartenders where you can commiserate with your coworkers, get a proper pour of Guinness, throw back some whiskey, and stumble out feeling anywhere from fantastic to terrible (depending on how much Guinness and whiskey you threw back).
If you don't have a good time at Jim Brady's, it's probably your fault.
I am rating this joint a 3 for now because I have yet to look at their menu and try their food. There was an older gentleman by the entrance who greeted me and my coworkers. The bar was filled with suits because it was a Friday evening. Friday after work = happy hour. I am not entirely sure what the drink prices are because I didn't pay for any of mine. I do believe a shot costs $7, which isn't terrible considering the location of the pub. The bartenders are friendly. The interior is your typical Irish pub, but with flair. I'll definitely come back to give their dishes a try.
i like jim bradys………………… the food is good and fresh. i love its turkey burgers………… and what i love are the onion rings – omg……….. i just love the onion rings.
I came here for lunch with some coworkers. I ordered the Club Turkey sandwich with waffle fries. (Normally this comes with a side of steak fries). I found no fault with the sandwich. The bacon and lettuce were crispy and the bread was lightly toasted. I liked that they put the mayo on the side, so you can control how much to put on the sandwich. The portion of waffle fries were generous. I was full after eating the sandwich and half the fries.
It's a nice pub with decent pub food.
