McCarthy's Irish Bar Lexington Kentucky

McCarthy's is one of the premier Irish bars in Lexington. Located on the Upper block between Main and Vine, McCarthys survived the demolition across the street. What makes McCarthy's so memorable is its pub like feel and atmosphere. As soon as you walk in, you have the primal urge for an Irish car bomb (Irish whiskey, Irish cream liquor and a half glass of Guinness. The bar is billed with wood and horses. You can't get much more Irish.
While at McCarthy's you gonna hear traditional Irish tunes... What does that mean? U2 with a serious dose of U2.
McCarthy's is a rather large bar, that has grown with the decades. It started out with the main bar and added the Spider's Well next door shortly after.
McCarthy's is a great place for a pint and that neighbory feeling you get with most Irish pubs. It's a great place to visit during the week, but it can be a little hectic and crowded on the weekends when the college invasion occurs. Why is it crowded? Because it is great.
