    Stayed in the area for a week and enjoyed visiting this local bar at night. Not pretentious, reasonably priced beers (6-7) and always a nice pour of Guinness. I had 4 different bartenders in one week and they were all fantastic; attentive and polite. Definitely a locals place, with people enjoying all sorts of live sports on the TVs along with the darts. Music on the weekends from the TouchTunes jukebox. Tried the Irish Haven a couple times for comparison and the staff at the Tavern were far nicer and friendlier from my experience... Check this place out if you're looking for a quieter spot. Listed hours are incorrect and closing times vary based on capacity, days and bartenders. From what it seemed like typically midnight through 1am on weekdays and later on weekends, though not sure if the place stays open until 4am as listed.

    Always adore the ambiance at Soccer Tavern! The crowd is fantastic, and even when I visit solo, I find myself engrossed in delightful conversations. The drinks never disappoint. A shoutout to Kate, one of the owners I had the pleasure of meeting last year – she's simply the best!
