O'Toole's Irish Pub - Brandon, Florida

Here’s what you really want to know about this place! It’s so unassuming! The food here is just off the charts for an Irish Pub. The owners are always working with their chef to create new things and bring back the favorites! The beer is delightful! All of the local favorites mixed in with all of the international loves from our Irish and English friends! Even the mixed drinks are pretty damn amazing! But, above all else, the heart of this place is its service! The men and woman behind the bars and the servers are just amazing! They’ll make you feel so welcome and seen. Strike up a convo or just leave you alone and keep’em comin if you’re havin a bad day. It doesn’t matter. My husband and I have a budget to go out and even though we’re foodie enthusiasts and live to try new things, we almost always decide to blow the budget on O’Toole’s. Honestly, cause it’s just that good!

Arrived and went inside. The atmosphere seemed good. Asked to have the table cleaned, and was told it would be a while. Our waitress took our drink orders. We also put our order for food which was just 2 things. Our friends who joined us 5 min later ordered their 2 beers. 30 min past by and when i asked the waitress, she said "that's the bar". That she was just or waitress. Not sure what the heck that means. 10 min later they brought the beers but they were not what they ordered. They brought the beers again and they were wrong again. At this point accepted the beers. And hr later our waitress came and asked us what had we ordered cause they lost our order. At all this, she brought us wrist bands that represented a $5 cover charge. We concluded that it was cause they had a one person player outside. Terrible experience.

**O'Toodles Irish Pub – A St. Patty's Day Blast!**

My husband and I decided to celebrate St. Patrick's Day at O'Toodles Irish Pub this year (March 17, 2024), and it was an absolute blast! Despite the packed crowd (as you'd expect for such a festive day), the atmosphere was electric, and we didn't mind the hustle and bustle one bit since we had the day off to relax and enjoy.

Even with the pub being full, we found seating easily, and the service was impressively quick. Our drinks arrived as soon as we sat down, and the energy of the place was fantastic. There were bagpipers, people dancing, and an authentic Irish vibe that made us feel like we were truly experiencing a bit of Ireland.

We went all out with the food, ordering almost everything from the special St. Patty's Day menu. The shepherd's pie, sausages, cabbage, and potatoes were hearty and delicious. The corned beef hash was another highlight, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. We also couldn't resist the homemade potato chips with a dipping sauce—crispy, fresh, and addictive! To top it off, we indulged in a whiskey caramel cheesecake that was divine.

For drinks, we had a classic Irish draught beer and some shots of Jameson, which we enjoyed outside in their event area. The outdoor setup was a fun extension of the pub, with raffle events, live music, and plenty of tables under tents to relax and avoid the Florida heat. The Irish-themed outfits worn by the staff added to the festive, authentic feel.

Overall, O'Toodles was a fantastic choice for St. Patty's Day, and we can’t wait to go back. The lively atmosphere, great food, and friendly service made it a day to remember!

Came out for a nice Friday night at the outdoor bar. They had live music and the musician was great. It was a nice relaxed atmosphere to kick back and have a few drinks. I had the strongbow on tap and it was delicious.

The service was excellent.
The chicken was the best I've had in a long time
The mac and cheese needs a little work.
The atmosphere needs a little something I can't put my finger on.
Overall it's a good place but there is room for improvement.

Good food and a great Irish pub atmosphere. We have only visited when it is between lunch and dinner on Saturdays so to be fair we have never visited when it is busy and filled with live music etc. They do have live music etc in the evenings but if you are like us, a family who doesn't like to eat in large crowds then I suggest visiting between lunch and dinner. It is such a chill vibe, the staff is nice and the food is great!
