Editorial Review for Flann O'Brien's – by Eric Grossman

In Short
Morrissey croons from the stacked jukebox near Flann O'Brien's well-worn pool table, while regulars and off-duty docs line a bar complete with 24 taps (enjoy hard-to-find imports like Belhaven and Boddington's). Guinness signs, oil paintings of Ireland's finest scribes and a collection of kitschy knick-knacks round out the decor. Build your own burger for about $6, or try a made-to-order wrap. More traditional offerings include bangers and beans, or a hearty Irish breakfast.

I had the best time at Flanns! The music is great and the service is awsome! I had a burger and i swear, it was the best I've had. The bartenders are great, not snobby, typical airhead bartenders. I went on a sunday nite and it had the best vibe!

We just found Flann's after moving in this week and are new to the Mission Hill/Longwood area. I had to take a second to write a few words about Flann's because we had an absolute blast there the other night! My wife and I stopped in for dinner and the food was great (I had the pulled pork and my wife had the veggie burger). We were also very happy with the vibe from the patrons and the employees. Flann's was warm and welcoming. They played a great selection of music and what caught our eyes was that they had one of the most diverse crowds I've ever seen in a local/neighborhood style Irish pub - students, doctors, young, old and everthing in between. It was an all around great experiance, minus the slight hangover. Quality food, served hot and without delay, fair prices, a polite staff that made us feel at home and a surprisingly good beer selection. We look forward to going back.

Pros: Prices, Service and location

Cons: Tough to get a seat after 11ish on the weekend.
