Blarney Castle

Let’s set the record straight here — none of the individuals below have the credibility required to appropriately review this establishment. The Blarney Castle is a Breezy Point institution and historical landmark that I surmise makes more money per square foot than any «Tapas Bar» or other pathetic hipster trap that Julie G. and Theresa Grillo L. regularly patronize. In fact, I would be willing to bet my unborn child’s life on it.
Now to the good stuff. Do not come to the Blarney expecting Wolfgang Puck’s finest work. It’s a good old fashioned tavern where some dude who looks like your great uncle Milton churns out 175 dinners a night from a 4′ x 8′ kitchen. I have never come home from a meal at the Blarney clamoring to call Zagat, but the basic menu items are pretty solid. Prime Rib, mashed potatoes, and a vegetable — it is your average household spread. No luck if you are looking for pinapple-​acai seared southwestern Turkish flounder, as I am sure this joke of a human being Theresa was. On top of all that, the price is right. A few beers and that particular night’s meat-​and-​potatoes special will probably run you and a pal $ 30 each, with tip.
The Blarney is also endeared for its dance floor, which becomes available on Friday and Saturday nights in the summer months. An eclectic mix is spun by local disc jockey Brian Leafy as droves of 20-​somethings clamor in to boogie on assorted restaurant furniture. If you are in town for a weekend or just the night, this is where you want to park yourself around 1 a.m. NOTE: avoid the men’s bathroom or anyone affectionately known as a «cowboy».

Nasty waitress… ANIMAL!
They take salad topping carousel from one table to another (germs).
Zero atmosphere!
Food sucked! Shrimp tasted like bleach

«there’s nothing really irish about it, it ain’t even a castle» — quote from the bartender when my Irish friend who is from Ireland asked about its Irishness.

Dive Central. I’ve been here twice and I can say with great certainty that this place is totally run down and could use a major makeover (as in renovations/​updates). The silverware and napkins they use look like they haven’t been updated since 1980 and they probably haven’t. I can’t even go into detail about the décor because there really isn’t even a point. The food is surprisingly pretty good though. At night this place turns into an underage to early 20s drinking haven with terrible top 40 music blasting so loud you can’t even think.

It is a dive bar located in Breezy Point, NY.
It was a fully stocked bar and great cold a/​c on those hot summer days. Used by locals and summer visitors to this beach coop community, it also host a restaurant (Which I have never tried) and has all sports games on for your entertainment. Can get busy on weekend nights. Check it out if you are in the area… but if not… you are not missing anything special.
