Foodie Review - Murphy's Irish Pub



While I was in San Francisco last month, we stopped in Sonoma and had lunch at Murphy's Irish Pub, a traditional pub in the middle of wine country. The interior design and atmosphere of the place is awesome. The walls are chock full of European memorabilia and knick knacks.




Behind the bar, you'll find every kind of alcohol and a friendly bartender. The tv is turned to some real soccer (none of that MLS BS). The day we went there were two British girls at the bar rooting for their hometown team. It made the experience all the better.


I was a little sad that we only had about an hour to hang out in the pub before we had to move on. I bet it would've been cool to experience it in all its glory at night with locals who just wanted to tie one on. Still the food was nice and cheap. Best of all, it was tasty. We had soft drinks and the daily special - BLT with avocado and either a side salad with chardonnay dressing or chips (fries to us Americans). Yummy!

Total for grub at an authentic Irish pub (tax included): $17.44.
