James Joyce Irish Pub - Durham

Enjoyed the best ever Irish food and drinks tonight. The 2 of us ordered Bangers and Mash with Guinness Gravy and the Sea Dog. The Sea Dog is a hot dog size fish sandwich with homemade tartar sauce and cole slaw. The fries were fresh and crunchy (not at all soggy as another reviewer had falsely claimed) which came with the Sea Dog were drizzled with fresh garlic and parsley. Yummy! The Bangers and Mash were also delicious! For dessert we shared their Rasberry Donut Crumbles cheesecake! Service was fast too.. Definitely will be back!

The food here is really good! We weren't expecting much from a bar, but it was great. The best fish and chips we've had in awhile. The curry was also great, next time I'll try the curry on fries instead of mashed potatoes. The bartender was working real hard as there was no one else to take orders or make drinks.

Absolutely incredible. Restorative. Where else can you go to have glorious food and drink, jokes with the staff, and a dance with your old man out back? This is a beautiful, magnificent beast of a night spot. James Joyce, you are my Winchester.

Wonderful atmosphere! Great, friendly service. Beautiful. Excellent food, and the Black and Tan was poured perfectly.

One of the best bars in Durham, and the food is sneaky good. Surefire on burger temperatures, garlic fries that little-sibling what you get at the SF Giants stadium, house-made corned beef for mains and sandwiches. Always a good mix of people to keep one entertained. Rock n ' roll, babes.
