The Castle Irish Pub and Restaurant - Orlando, Florida

I have now been here twice and each time has been enjoyable. The atmosphere is wonderful, quiet, and aesthetically pleasing. The staff is attentive and friendly and the food is top notch and served in a timely manner.

Specifically, I’ve had the shepherds pie, soda bread and chowder. My friend treated me for the first time on my birthday and they let me choose a dessert on the house in honor of the occasion. Let’s just say, their bread pudding is the best I’ve had!

Today, I brought another friend of mine back and we had the same lovely experience. I also appreciate that they have their own parking lot so I don’t have to park on the street if I don’t want to.

Having made the trip from Mt Dora specifically to see the Folk Music Jam, it was a little disappointing that barely any seating afforded a view of the group. 😢 Thankfully, we could still hear them. Our server, Harmony, took outstanding care of us! Not only did she make great food suggestions, she even insisted on having a beer repoured because it didn't look right.

The look of the place is beautiful, with cozy booth seats and bar seating. The sound of the session completed the experience.

My group's food was good, but my fish and chips were merely okay. My wife's Ruben tasted great though.

From the service, decor, food, drinks and sports! You can’t go wrong coming here. We ordered the Brussels Sprouts for an appetizer very delicious and crispy the bacon bits in it were juicy. 🥓

The kids meal come with in house made crispy treat made with lucky charms! Soooo good yes I had to snag a bite of my daughters, LOL.

The bangers and mash, well there was NO left overs to take home. Very well balanced and the taste is spectacular. Someone at my table had the Shepherds Pie that comes with a side of the soda bread. 🍞 YUM! 🤤 I ordered the Espresso Martini and it did not disappoint.

Wish we had room for the desserts! Thank you for an amazing all round dining experience, we will be back soon 🙌

Ethan was our server, very attentive and friendly. The food came out a little slow, but it was happy hour.
The Reubens were good but needed kraut.
The slain chicken sandwiches came out a little burnt.
I ordered a fish plate as a replacement and it was very good.
The music playing was Bruno Mars, it should be Irish music. What appears to be a stage sits upon the front corner, I believe that they a live band starting at 8pm.
We finished off the evening with a chocolate Guinness cake and Creme brulee which were very good.
Overall I think it's as good or better than and cheaper than Raglan Road in Disney springs.

Been here 4 times now and I like this place in general. Good beer, good vibe, beautiful place, clean, nice servers, etc. Live music sometimes. The food is still hit and miss. Fish and chips are excellent, fries and most appetizers are great, wings were okay - some crispy and juicy while some dried out. The Irish stew wasn't really a stew, but more like meat and mash with some sauce, and the lamb was way overcooked / tough. And still think everything is a dollar or two higher than it should be.

Beautiful place! Fancy for pub feels. Well lit, nice materials, very clean, even the chairs are nice. Friendly people. Food is ok so far. Chicken was fried a little heavy / oily for my taste, but tasty. Fries are fantastic. Wasn't crazy about their chowder, which was thinner and not as creamy as other Irish seafood chowder I've had, more red too like Manhattan, but weaker. Curry is nothing special, curry fries weren't as good as Harp and Celt. Will be back to try their food a few more times to get a better gauge. A bit pricey for what you're getting, especially beer prices, but also salads with protein. But kids menu prices are appropriate.

We absolutely loved the vibe of The Castle - it reminded me so much of the cozy Irish and English Pubs I've visited in Europe.

The workers there were so welcoming, always ready to help with a smile on their faces. Just like in London, we couldn't resist ordering the classic Fish n Chips, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The dish came with mashed peas and perfectly cut fries that were just divine.

We couldn't help but snap a few photos to remember the delicious meal. It was such a treat to enjoy a fantastic meal! All in all, a truly delish experience!

Happy to have this new pub in our 'hood. It was wall to wall packed on a Thursday night. Staff was friendly & attentive. The build out is masterfully done. Food & drinks were timely despite the crowd, which is A++! I was disappointed with the Brussels appetizer - I love brussels, candied pecans, pork belly & balsamic, but this dish didn't do much for me. Fish & chips were good. The helping was huge & I needed more than a ramekin of ketchup & would have loved some malt vinegar, too. Pass on the peas ... My wife had the Shepherd's Pie & enjoyed it. Another huge portion! We both took to-go boxes home. Good stuff ... Welcome to College Park!
