Nothing sets a mood right like live music and and a great meal. The service was beyond excellent and the food matched and then some. Words cannot do my experience justice, but just know if you're thinking about sitting down to eat, you should be doing it here.

First timer...and enjoyed the whole experience...ordered the Fish&Chips...very well prepared and followed up with the Creme bruele cheese cake...
Fun atmosphere with live music...
Parking is a little different...being in Fairfax parking was only at a garage but it was public parking with no charge...

Coordinating a family get together for 50+ relatives, Auld Shebeen is the perfect venue for live music, great food, great drinks and great memories.

Dominic and Mick (the owners / managers) as well as the staff are all great with accommodating special events. I highly recommend Auld Shebeen as they know how to bring everything together, taking the hassle out of planning while just ensuring everyone has a great time.

Great Beer selection on draft, food is top-notch and the atmosphere makes it feel like home. It is an authentic Irish pub where entire families from 8 years old to 80 years old can all get together and share laughs, good times, good music and great memories. Thank you very much, Auld Shebeen!

This is my favorite local Irish pub, authentic Irish food, warm atmosphere and large spaces (separate walk-in and reserved areas on busy days for minimal waiting) . We enjoyed the live music on St Patrick day.

We haven’t been back here for a long time so we decided to come back for a nice dinner. We ordered corned beef and cabbage and Claddagh bo porter cheeseburger. The burger had a beautiful charred beef flavor that matched perfectly with the cheese and mashed potato. The corned beef was delicious like I remembered. The presentation was lovely and the portion was just right. I noticed the pricing was extremely fair as well. The whole dining experience was superb with excellent service from Chelsea. We will definitely try to come back more often.

We love The Auld Shebeen so much. It’s one of our go-to’s for date night. Everything we’ve had has been delicious and the service is always great. It gets a little crowded during peak times, but it’s worth it!

One of our go to restaurants for some good comfort Irish food. The beef stew was so flavorful and big chunks of meat. The cottage pie dish was amazing. The chicken with the herb sauce is chefs kiss. Don’t sleep on the fries with curry sauce. That curry sauce is everything. The leek soup is also delicious.

We spend a month annually in the British Isles. And when we're in our NoVa place Auld Shebeen remains our fav for excellent pub food. The food here remains among the best you will find in any pub anywhere in the world.
My bride had the Shepherd's Pie. She loved it.
I had the Chicken Pot Pie which was filled with chicken. I love the Kilkenny Creme Ale. It's difficult to find anywhere else. Portions here are on the large side, so bring an appetite. Cheers!
