McMurphy's Tavern, 72 N. Fair Oaks Ave., Pasadena, Ca. 91103,
(626) 666-1445

McMurphys is not an Irish pub. It is nothing more than a low class bar with a few decent beers, overpriced weak drinks, overpriced poorly prepared food, several so called 'large screen' TVs, and low end entertainment.

I've only been to McMurphys once but once was enough. The place was fairly busy but the patrons were mostly drunk, loud and crude. The service was almost non existant, the food was almost inedible (in fact we didn't eat ours) and the drinks, although they were supposed to be good brands, seemed to be very weak (at least for the price). There was a DJ there for entertainment but his selections left much to be desired.

If you like dining at a frat house party a la 'Animal House' then you will like McMurphy's. Otherwise keep away from there.
