I'm giving this place 3 stars because at the time it's precisely what I was looking for.... a bar open super late where we could sit outside and shoot the breeze...

My beer was cold, the breeze was humid... mission accomplished... so to speak...

This place sucks.  Period.

We had just been at the Abbey, which I was completely satisfied with.  I wanted to explore some new places, and a girl I know down here suggested this place.

My friend and I walked in.  He ordered a miller lite.  I said "I'll take the same."  I received a tap of some sort of IPA.  He got a bottle of Miller lite.  The total was $12.66.  I left a perfectly fun/satisfying bar where I was drinking GOOD BEER... and had paid a flat $12 for two pints.  

The only positive about this place is that the bartenders are all attractive.  I'll add a star for that, but I'm taking it right back because they're all dopes.

I like this bar. My brother and his girlfriend go here all the time and its a great bar. Not your typical sobe bar. Its not trendy or fancy at all.  Far from it. Just good people wanted to have a good time.  Seriously people, you know where not to order food from, you walk into this place and just know not to eat here. You go here to drink, so if you had a bad meal here and you are complaining about it then use common sense next time and don't order food from a dirty bar.

Sadly we stumbled upon this place by mistake, hoping that it was a real Irish place and lured by the bitter taste of an ice cold Guinness beer.
Waitstaff sucks- these guys are focused on nothing - how can you collect a paycheck for such a dismal job, it was certainly reflected on my tip...or lack thereof-
The food .... BLAH -
Not even worth me wasting more words on this place, nothing to see here... keep walking.

Wow.. no.  Just not what it could be.  Sure use the fact that its "Lincoln road" as an excuse to serve sub-par food at ridiculously high prices.  

The chips really were CHIPS .. not a cute reference to the british way of saying 'fries'.  The roast beef sandwich was NOT on a hoagie, like they usually are but on a small roll, with such little meat I couldn't believe they were charging us $8 for it.

The wings?? FRIED CHICKEN, no sauce.  Battered like fried chicken, tasted like fried chicken, because thats what it was. IF you want them hot? Tabasco sauce for you ..  

Unless you are grabbing a beer and playing pool, skip it.

First stop in my pub crawl.

Perfect because it is a central location on Lincoln Road and it is big.  Good music and good drinks. Service is always slow which is my usual complaint at this bar.

I've been going to Finnegan's for the past 8 years and I always have a good time there. The place has a great vibe, good music, has live bands playing all the time and great bartenders. Pretty much have everything you need for a great time and a good selection of beer and liquor. It's a very local place and the same people have been going for years and years, including me ;) . One problem I do have though is that the bathrooms are really nasty, probably the worst I have ever seen. But after a few beers, it doesn't matter much. I go to Finnegan's at least once a week and love it.

I went in here during the day waiting for some friends... I ordered a glass of wine and asked to see the menu. 1st of all, the menu has like 8 things on it. God forbid you ask for silverware, cause I did from the waitress and got this "are you kidding me?" look. When I asked the bartender I got the same look, then was handed some plastic utensils in plastic wrap!

Thank god I was at the wrong bar. I went to the one on Ocean where they had a full menu, metal utensils and a bartender with a clue. There are SO many other places to go on Lincoln. Save your time and go somewhere worth it.

Good Bits
Location- sit outside and people watch
Casual- Collegiate and sportsy, you don't feel like your being judged

Bad Bits
Crappy draft beer selection
Slow and apathetic service
The food was a joke. It tasted like they had gone into Costco's frozen foods aisle and reheated some frozen fish triangles, and cheap egg rolls. Luckily it was inexpensive. Do not eat here!

Finnegan's Two is a good low-key spot to grab a drink and hang out with friends while people-watching on Lincoln Road.  The drinks are potent and not too pricey, given the location.  The staff is friendly, but service can be a little sparse when it's crowded.

The key word at Finnegan's Two is "drink," as it's a bar.  There's a limited menu available - but if you want some food with your booze, you're better off elsewhere, such as the Finnegan's on Ocean.

This place is good if you want something divey. They have strong drinks, good music and the people watching from outside is great.
Service can be tough but they have good specials so be patient.

The service here sucks.  The food here sucks.  The draught beer selection sucks.  Only good thing about Finnegan's Two is the live band.  When I went, there was some decent rock going on.  It was also easy to find a table.  Regarding the servers, they have these blank stares on their faces and one of the anorexic looking ones wanted to get by my friend so she just stood there and stared him down without condescending to say "excuse me."  A cheery bunch they are!

Umm... it's called Finnegan's Two and NOT 'Finnegan's Too' like it says in the listing.

Personally, I would prefer if they used the roman numeral II, but that's just me.

The place has some potential.  It's a very casual spot and kind of an alternative to the typical Lincoln Road fanfare.  It's pretty much a sports bar with a collegiate feel to it.  They have a small raised stage for bands and they're not afraid to crank up the tunes as well as the juke box, which could be a good thing.... or not.

Last time I was there the juke box was blaring B-52's 'Love Shack' at 3pm in the afternoon.  The bartender went over to the tuner to adjust the volume and I was about to thank her, because I thought she was going to turn it down or maybe even hit the Skip button.  Instead she turned  the volume UP.  YIKES!  Very scary.  I finished my beer and got the hell outta there.  Who needs to hear that song anymore, and louder at that?!

What do you get for $6.50 here?

A pint of Harp and bleeding ears.

Awesome they played the game, but the volume was so loud and tinny, it was unbearable.  Equally unbearable, an 'irish' pub that pours Guinness like it's Budweiser.

The place smelled like they never clean their mops - and a mostly empty bar still required flagging down a bartender for another pint.

Yes, I stayed for two - ears might have been bleeding, but the game was a good one.

Pretty good low key place to grab a few drinks after dinner. Sometimes they have a band playing inside, and pool tables. The drinks were ok, the only bad thing was that they had like one waiter for the entire bar so the service was really slow.

Aside from the fact that it can sometimes take a while to get service, even when you're standing at the bar and the place isn't that full, and the food menu is limited and is basic 'bar food", I've always had fun when I've come here.  When there is a soccer game, Monday Night Football or other sporting event on TV, they usually mount a plasma screen outside so you can sit at a table, chat, sip your beer, watch the game and people watch during the commercials.  I took a buddy here earlier this year to watch an NFL game...He's from New York, so he thought it was cool to watch football outside at night without freezing, while people are jogging or going past  the place on rollerblades (welcome to Lincoln Rd. Ha ha.)  On the weekends they've usually got cover bands playing here at night and the place always gets crowded.

DO NOT GO HERE.  I would give it less than one star if possible.  

The service was terrible- the bartender seemed like she had way too much to drink the night before- getting a beer was a 20 minute process.  But she was nice, so at that point in the experience, the place deserved about 3 stars.

HOWEVER the manager-seeming guy (yes, you with the black spiky hair) is a lunatic.  We were ready to leave, and after not receiving our food after an hour and a half, we asked this guy behind the bar to cancel our order.  He replied (in a very hostile manner) that it was behind the bar and had been for quite some time, and that we should have magically known that we had to retrieve it from the bar (which is funny because we had been ordering beers this whole time, and no one mentioned our food was up.  Add that to the fact that the bartender asked us where we were sitting when we ordered).  

When we asked for a refund, he kept telling us they were on the house.  That's great, but we already paid for them, we don't want them, we want to leave, so we'd just like a refund please.

With that he proceeded to come around the bar (I kid you not) and get in the face of my boyfriend while yelling profanity-laced statements like "Don't F with me!  I'll F with you right back!"  This went on for about 15 minutes.

Okay dude, we just wanted our seven bucks back, we do not want the cold chicken, and we want to go home.

TOTAL PSYCHO.  Stay away.

When I use to work on Lincoln Road, this was the hangout of many of my office workers after work. There plenty of chairs outside and usually a free table inside. The drink prices are not too outrageous. Since there is outside seating, the smokers don't have to stand on a street corner.

finnegans too ... the problem with finnegans too is that they dont have that many good beers. i would rate them 4 stars if they had delirium, chimay .. the good stuff. so i always get guinness when im here, you cannot go wrong with a guinness. the food - i had it once and never again.

theres a couple of pool tables and a stage where bands perform nightly. it could get pretty loud inside but theres tables outside too. service is ok, there are waitresses but apparently only until a certain time, you must go up to the bar after that. i dont love finnegans, but i dont hate it either.
