    Our family has enjoyed wedding receptions, birthdays, holiday gatherings, and wakes at The Irish Inn over the past 20 years. It's always been an enjoyable experience thanks to great food, ambience, and a staff that is the best! Our latest monthly lunch with family was another great time! Thanks Irish Inn for everything and we'll see you next month! Sincerely, Scott & Nancy Hill

    The dining room was cozy. Pub was busy. Service was great and everything I tried was delish. Highly recommend the Shepherds pie.

    I’ve been to Glen Echo many, many times but lately I return saying to myself I’ll give it another chance. The food was good and the service not so good. While the food arrived quickly, the waiter was unable to put a smile on his face😢. I had the shellfish entree and had to ask for a seafood fork. Music in the bar was wonderful👍. So, I’ll go back to listen to the music and forget about ordering food.

    One of the better places around DC for enjoying a meal outdoors but let down somewhat by inconsistent food that fails to merit its relatively high prices. Amongst other dishes, we enjoyed a good salmon dish and an OK seafood stew - rather watery with a small amount of seafood. The deserts - Guinness bread pudding and a cinnamon stick with ice cream were disappointing. The latter seemed to have been warmed up in a microwave and lacked any crispness - quite lifeless actually. The service was good and friendly.

    We have eaten at the Inn for thiry+ years, but not been there for several years. Went for Saturday lunch and could have gone to a 5-Star for that bill! Three got crabcakes, so have to expect the price, I suppose. They were ALL crab, but a bit mushy. Bloody Marys were way too salty, and undrinkable (left them). Service was okay, but not really attentive to coming back to the table soon after food came to see what we needed (lemon, butter for potatoes). The BEST scones!
