Editorial Review for Hap's Old Irish Pub – by Rosemary Hoyt
In Short
Founder Gordon Thomas opened Hap's in 1975, inspired by the pubs he visited on a trip to Ireland. His son, Danny, carries on the family tradition with this pub that wears its authenticity on its boiled-wool sleeve. Patrons will find the requisite map of the Auld Sod at the bar, and even a photo of the Pope. Besides traditional Irish dishes on the menu, European sports are also on view.

I can't believe these two Scots think the prices are too high, if they had a decent living they think they'd had a raise. Joe, the barman, is a national treasure, and maintains an eternal state of grace. The Guiness and the whiskey{piss on Bushmill's} is poured correct, which ought to be enough. There's nancyboy Thai,Frog , and Hindu on the block, but if that's your style we'd prefer you get bent. Be well, and you'll never walk alone.
Pros: Best Irish bar in Cinti
Cons: No smoking but that ain't they're fault, init?

This is a good place to relax and have a few drinks in what feels like an authentic irish pub setting, although it can get a bit crowded. The crowd is a bit older, but everyone's friendly. They only take cash so remember to stop by the ATM before stopping in!
Pros: Great place to have low-key drinks, good jukebox
Cons: Drinks can be pricey, bar area gets very crowded
