Having read the rave reviews we popped into this little Irish bar this morning after visiting the Farmer's market in Palmerston Rd precinct. Ordered one full Irish breakfast and one Stack breakfast.

Food is basic, but VERY good. The drinks are always excellent quality, the staff hugely friendly. Great little bar with food.. The front opens in the summertime too, for a very open air feel.

The tables were cleaned regularly and the waitresses & staff were absolutely... More

The staff are very friendly and helpful. Food (only during the day) is great and beer/lager is well looked after. Well worth a visit.

We had been here a few times for drinks and always loved the atmosphere. Went for breakfast here for the first time after reading the reviews on here and it was one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Good quality products, cooked to perfection and not greasey. Would highly recommend.

I always enjoy visiting Shenanigans. Although they have a limited menu the food is always freshly cooked and is of a high quality. I can recommend the breakfasts and my personal favourite ham, eggs and chips - delish!!. Chips made with REAL POTATOES who would believe it!!!! Just wish that you opened on Mondays... I always seem to crave a... More
