The Scene – A series of small, separately enclosed nooks, or "snugs" as they are called in Ireland, provide places for intimate conversation. Dark-wood tones, portraits of famous Irishmen, stained glass and detailed craftsmanship is everywhere. Equal parts restaurant and pub, Foley's draws a strong lunchtime crowd, including Union Square shoppers, and comes alive at night with live music. Irish bartenders are spot on the job with fast service and a joke or two. – – The Draw – Live entertainment ranges from traditional Irish music to rock-and-roll cover bands. A…

Horrible
by enzypher
This place is horrible... I used to go here everyday for a drink after work...
Until one day I walked in and they grabbed me by the arm and said "sir you have to talk with the manager." I complied and went up to him he told me "I was never welcome here ever again." When I asked why he told me ....because I had received a complaint about a couple who I had given my business card to, only to try and help them out. He told me that I had shown them a picture of my member which is a total lie!!!! These ladies were obviously upset and made a rumor about me... I told him not to believe their story, that they were lying and he said I don't believe you.. You need to leave and never come back!
I was very upset and it made me mad that the place I had gone to and
been very courteous and kind did not take my word over some ladies that made up this horrible rumor... DO NOT GO HERE THEY ARE UNFAIR!!!!! Go somewhere else.....

Never a bad time...
by thickprettykitty
Been here plenty of days and I've never had a bad time. Food is great, service is dependant on the kind of person you are. It's Bad if you like waitstaff equal to flies (buzz, buzz, buzz), Average if you like waistaff to be checking in with you every 15 minutes (everything STILL ok here?), Great if you like to take your time, enjoy your meal, nurse your ale and like to hollar waistaff over to request your check when you're ready. I don't know about everyone else but a pub- an IRISH pub none the less- is supposed to be rowdy and loud and you should expect to have to wave waistaff over. It's a pub. You want 5 star elegance with buzz, buzz waitstaff go on over to a fancy-schmancy sit down restaurant. Just remember you need a 4 month in advance reservation and oh ya- you can get just as good food over at Foley's and have a good time too if you just chill. And try ANY IRish pub on St. Pad's kids- what customer service?!?!? St. Pad's is CRAZY!!
