Sullivan's Irish Pub in Lakewood, OH

We dined at Sullivan's Irish Pub last night, yet found it oddly empty. Aside from the expected Guinness, they have a great selection of Irish food. The fish and chips are excellent, I say with my Nova Scotian expertise, and the cheddar dip appetizer is addictive and hearty. They have the usual burgers and a very fulfilling Guiness BBQ chicken sandwich. The fries are thick cut wedges cooked to perfection - being an Irish pub, they had better get the potato dishes right. There are several boxty dishes, and it's all fairly reasonably priced. The ambiance is neo-Irish, and the tables have a fair amount of space so you have room to tell tall tales, as is in keeping with the atmosphere. I can only hope it will pick up a bit, and that as our waitress said "people are afraid of heavy food in this heat". I can't recommend this place enough, it's a place you will not go just once. It's located at 13368 Madison Ave, Lakewood, OH, phone them at (216 529-8969). To get there just get off I90 at the West 117 exit, and head North. Turn left on Madison and it's a small blue-framed building on the right a few streets down. Plus, there's something neat about dining under the scythe they have hanging from the ceiling.
