Who says an Irish pub can’t have a “freaki-tiki” for open-air dining and drinking? In fact, Clancy’s beloved tiki bar area now has been expanded into a fenced-in parking lot with additional tables for al fresco fun and a brand-new raised and covered stage for all the bands Clancy’s books.
In addition to fresh pints of Guinness and plenty of liquors from The Emerald Isle, Clancy’s top-shelf pub grub includes one of the best Reuben sandwiches in town, an outstanding fish and chips basket and their highly addictive Clancy Rolls, which are egg rolls filled with corned beef, sauerkraut and Thousand Island dressing.
