Just in time for St. Patrick\u2019s Day, Henry McCarty Irish Pub<\/a> has opened in the West 7th Entertainment District.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no sticky floors or rotten wood smell. It may just be the nicest Irish pub Fort Worth has ever seen. It\u2019s dressed with snazzy checker flooring, a dark oak bar (in classic Irish fashion) and leather seating. Even the bathrooms are nice.<\/p>\n

Previous Irish pubs in the area<\/a> just felt like watering holes that served Guinness (and most bars serve Guinness nowadays anyway). But the Irish theme at Henry McCarty\u2019s is evident, from the classic dark wood pub interior, to the full Irish food menu and variety of Irish beer served in a tulip glass.<\/p>\n

In my opinion, the new pub is just as much a restaurant as it is a bar. While you can order wings and a soft pretzel, there\u2019s also complex dishes like corned beef and cabbage rolls or shepherd\u2019s pie. On St. Patrick\u2019s Day, there will be live music, a live bagpiper and shot specials.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to miss at 2869 Crockett St. with a large, wrap-around front patio. When you walk in, you are greeted with a \u201cBilly the Kid Wanted\u201d poster, since the bar is named after the American outlaw, whose parents were of Irish descent.<\/p>\n

Before you down an Irish car bomb, it\u2019s probably best to have a bite of something to eat.<\/p>\n

The menu is very accessible to anyone, whether you want to adventure into traditional European fare or if you just want a good burger or wings.<\/p>\n

Henry McCarty\u2019s also serves chicken sandwiches, wings, soups, salads, burgers and steak frites for those who want something more \u201cAmerican.\u201d<\/p>\n

For libations, the pub serves draft Guinness (non-alcoholic Guinness bottles are available too), Irish ales, wine and other staple beers. They also offer a full bar with Irish whiskeys and cocktails, like a Jameson mule.<\/p>\n

Henry McCarty Irish Pub is somewhere you can wear your jeans and boots.<\/p>\n

While the inside is polished, it\u2019s not somewhere you need to wear a suit. It\u2019s the perfect place to kick back, enjoy a quality meal and good pint of stout.<\/p>\n

Henry McCarty\u2019s Irish Pub<\/a> is located at 2869 Crockett St. in Artisan Circle.<\/p>\n

Their happy hour is weekdays from 3 to 6 p.m. During happy hours, they offer Irish street tacos for $5 a piece as well as $7 appetizers and $5 beers. There will not be a happy hour on St. Patrick\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

VP of Operations Robin Vaughn said the pub plans to block off the majority of Crockett Street for an all-day St. Patrick\u2019s Day celebration in the future. Since they just opened this year, they don\u2019t have enough staff to do so quite yet.<\/p>\n

Henry McCarty\u2019s is open daily, Monday to Wednesday from 11 a.m. to midnight, Thursday and Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 a.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to midnight. The kitchen is open Sunday through Wednesday until 11 p.m. and Thursday to Saturday until 1 a.m.<\/p>\n
