The Field Irish Pub in San Diego - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great little pub! .. I went here as someone recommended the chips with curry sauce which I have to say was worth it .. other than that, the atmosphere was great, staff were warm & friendly and with all Irish pubs, you'll get a great variety of choice on Irish whiskeys

How lucky I was to find this place. God loves me! Great atmosphere, friendly service and the evening's playlist was made for me. Guinness. Shepard's Pie and a bread pudding I would kill for. What an evening. The Field. From now on my number 1 in San Diego!!!

This was our first stop in San Diego. The inside feels like we were back in Ireland. The service was very quick and very friendly. The appetizers were tasty.

Our server is always the best, we go there any time we're in San Diego, it's our go-to all the time, the food, service and atmosphere are the best

Half our orders were wrong and the potatoes were pretty bland.

dining in San Diego and wanting to avoid Italian restaurants this is a valid solution.

first stop for SDCC preview night and a pint cannot be beat.

Fun Irish pub shipped over from Ireland.

Tons of fun. Fun cocktails. We sat outside on the way to the baseball game and again on the way back.

Watched EUROPA 2024 here and the atmosphere was amazing! Food and beer were great. Would definitely recommend.

Great spot, Irish music playing, just an all around authentic Irish feel!

I can't say anything but GREAT!

So fun you feel like your stepping into Ireland

Crazy quick service on a Tuesday night! Good food, Irish atmosphere. Great place!

I came here to specifically try the Irish Coffee and it is magically delicious. Cheers to a place that keeps its history and foundation alive in this place. A sight to behold and next I’ll come back to try the Guinness. - I saw someone holding a baby here so i guess it’s kid friendly Cheers!!!!

I kinda feel every "Irish" America pub I go to in the states is pretty much the same, but hmm, maybe that is the point for its target audience aka Irish Americans. That all said, the food was good, service however was poor with the usual lack of interest I would expect from an Irish waiter (that was not a bad thing as they left us alone to chat). So I guess if you don't want to book a flight on Aer Lingus to get to Dublin to get a taste of my home country this is not a bad place to start off. Watch the prices though, my burger was $22. So for me, I won't be back !

Expensive but that’s downtown for ya. I always grab a Guinness after the game here. Apps arnt bad either.

We make sure to get an Irish coffee whenever we come to town! It’s simply delish😌

Loved sitting outside people watching, waitress was great, food was excellent!

I really can't comment about the food because we didn't have it. Unless you count Guinness as food because it might be considered one of the important daily food groups. Then yes "the food" was excellent! We came by to imbibe a couple pints of Guinness stout around 4pm and were met with delicious pints and amazing service. I recommend this place!

Attention everyone after the Padre game the service was professional. The food was flavorful. The patrons were legit and full of knowledge.

No Diet Coke, was craving a Diet Coke and apparently, theirs was flat, and they had no alternative. Was disappointed with the food and the service in general as well. Is what it is, can’t be perfect all the time I guess. Do not recommend.

I actually ate twice at the Field Irish Pub on successive days -- first for a solo lunch and the following evening for happy hour beer & snacks with my husband before a game at Petco Park. Both visits were similar, sitting at a high top table on the outdoor patio, located on the street on 5th Ave (which is closed off to traffic). On both occasions, the staff was stretched pretty thin for the number of patrons, so service could be slow but unfailingly friendly. It's best to know what you want and order it immediately when the server first comes to your table. You may not see her for awhile if you tell her you are still deciding. On both visits we stuck to familiar bar standards. For my solo lunch, a bacon burger with fries, washed down with a couple of Ballast Point Sculpin IPAs. For our pre-game happy hour, 3 sliders (served individually at $4/each), as well as a combo platter of snacks (potato skins, onion rings, fries, and chicken tenders), along with a couple of Half Door IPAs. The burger for lunch was better than our happy hour snacks, as the grease quotient for the latter was pretty high. We were pleased to discover that, despite the baseball game, they were offering their Happy Hour menu that evening. Many of the bars in the area suspend HH pricing when there's a home game at Petco. We'd certainly return.

The food and beer were delish! Nothing better than a draft Guinness at an Irish pub!🍻

Great cocktails, delicious food and amazing service. Best night ever.

I came for a late lunch and they have a very reasonably priced happy hour menu! The potato skins and pub slider were very good.

Had the bangers and mash, best in San Diego, great onion gravy too! The inside has this Cracker Barrel vibe but over the pond

We came here for dinner and drinks and the place is kind of interesting.. its a bit too much of what someone thinks an Irish pub should be. For us it was too dingy and dark and worn. they did not have a table for 4 available inside that had a bit more light so we ended up on the patio and had some drinks. I'm sure the place is a blast late night.

Very slow. Place was full, but still the food took 45 mins.

I live next door to this restaurant, so I am always nearby. Every time I pass by, everyone looks happy, and the front hosts are always nice people. I love their shepherds pie. 😊 Very good place with very good people. Out of the 2 years I've been nearby, they've never had an off day for me. Can state they have my good review for 2 years in a row. My friends who also live nearby love this place too.

Very authentic Irish style pub. Good selection of Irish beers and whiskey. Nice music in the background.

Genuinely lovely Irish Pub with a fine pint of Guinness on tap to boot

The Irish coffee was delicious! The loaded chips were super yummy too! The Lamb Shepard's Pie was 3/5. The mashed potatoes on top were delicious. But the meat inside needed flavor? Seasoning? It needed something.

Very pleased to come back and it was excellent as always. Such a cozy and authentic atmosphere, great service and wide menu. I had to try the chips and curry sauce and it was terrific, and a total steal. Look forward to going back and trying other things, maybe

Great place to leisure, n ate. Owners great , service to, reminds me of back home, not many Feinnians though but mahhb yo be in the future.

The best bar and restaurant in San Diego. Do not miss!

Cute place brought piece by piece from Ireland and reassembled here. The food and drinks are definitely Irish and the atmosphere is cozy.

An excellent Irish bar & restaurant. It is on two floors. The 2nd floor overlooks 5th Avenue and has a bit more window light. We had dinner & Guinness draft beer. Also on tap is Harps, Smithwicks, and other beer. They also have an excellent Irish and Scotch whiskey selection. I had the Guinness beef stew, and curry fries & potato skins with our group. Others had the Corned Beef and Cabbage, Whiskey Chicken Boxy, and Lamb Shepherds Pie. All was terrific. Unfortunately I forgot to get photos of the food, next time! I can't imagine a better place for St. Patrick's Day. Just come early!

Cool Irish pub with great drinks and awesome staff!

Cheery vibe and the Irish coffee is a must-try!

A girl told us that she was the owner and she was racist with us, she kicked us out in the moment she noticed that we are Mexican, saying that we were intoxicated, when even the security girl apologized with us, saying that she know that we were ok and that she was really sorry meanwhile the other girl never stopped yelling at us and saying that she was going to call the police. You can see the video and judge by yourself.

Very rude waitstaff - I’m a tourist to your city and took pictures of the outside of your establishment and the wait staff told me to “get a life” - F you!

Torn about this place. It's not that bad, but it's got a big sign out front saying "please wait to be seated" and another saying "authentic Irish pub".. Sorry but I don't think you can have both of those signs This really is an American bar with Irish paint. It's definitely not a British pub

The most authentic Irish Pub in Gaslamp.

Went to go for a pint of Guinness, the lovely hostess show us to our table. then proceeded to the bar in quick succession already knowing what we came for. we were then abruptly told we only accepted American id, as which brits only carry driving licences they refused service of a pint. Poor service on there part and or no explanation given. Wouldn’t recommend.

Best pup ever. Thanks for the good affordable food and outstanding service. Love you guys. I’ll be back again.

Always fun, and especially so when they have live music.

What a cool place, had a bit of a Disney feel with all the old decorations. Service was great we just had the loaded chips and man was that good.

Perfect Irish Pub! We just walked in off the street with no idea what to expect. Huge screens to watch the game, good beer selection, super nice staff!! Authentic Irish food and really good. Also try their infused Jameson drinks!! Great experience and super cozy bar!

Lots of traditional atmosphere! Good pub food and very nice waitstaff. We stopped in for some apps and a quick drink. The sampler platter could be a bit more robust, it's really designed for 2 people and we were a party of 4.

Just stopped in on a whim for Saturday brunch and everything about it was great. I sat there for nearly 90 minutes reading with Irish coffee.

Everything about this place is fantastic!

A few pints of decent Guinness was a plus. Good vibes!

Tasty breakfast with an Irish coffee. Great way to end the year.

Great drinks! Nice music. We only had drinks, but the food looked good.

Love the atmosphere, service is good, happy hour is great and beer is fantastic. Highly recommend if you're visiting San Diego.

It's a great place to have a meal,always a friendly staff on hand.

Our server Natasha was awesome. Great customer service and attentiveness. The food was great as well along with the drinks. The Irish coffee is a must have with a Guinness plus the Irish Breakfast.

Excellent spot for a black and tan

Good drinks, friendly staff, cozy atmosphere. Nice place for a more low-key drink.

Fabulous place. The whiskey mint shots are mind blowing. Love this place.

The staff was excellent and kind, knowledageable about food and drinks with out looking at menu. Shepereds Pie an Corn Beef and Cabage were the best EVVVVER MUST TRY atLEAST 100TIMEZZZ, Also great waitress Natasha very fast and attentive.. Is on her game.

Not authentic Irish. Good spot for a pint. Skip the food

We were in San Diego for a vacation and visited The Field every night. We were treated like family. The staff is first rate, the food was fantastic, and the atmosphere perfect. The best Shepherds Pie I have had in the US - and the best overall pub food too. Even without the food The Field should be a go-to place for everyone who loves a good Pub. I can't say enough good things about the staff - friendly, efficient, and they take an interest in their patrons. Dave made this a wonderful stop. Fantastic experience.

I love this place. Strangely, I think it’s now my favorite spot in San Diego. Call me simple, but the food is delicious, the service is prompt and the 80’s sound track makes me happy. What a nice atmosphere and reasonably priced too 😁. Well done lads, I will have another beer.

This pub is very welcoming. The staff is very friendly and helpful they let you sit wherever you like. And they let you take your time while you eat and relax also it's right on the gas lamp strip so there's a lot going on.

Great atmosphere, wonderful staff, and plenty of craic to be had here

Great Irish Pub. Good service and knowledgeable staff.

The indoor atmosphere and decor is spot on at the Field Irish Pub. The variety of Irish dishes is decent. The last time my Wife and I visited The Field Irish Pub the entire experience was awesome! Food was incredible and prices great. Not so much now. I hope that there will be some changes before our next visit.

Great food and draft beer in Gaslamp San Diego! Our waitress, Lizzy, was training and was very friendly and helpful.

The food was authentic and amazing! The Whiskey selection large and reasonable. Everyone was friendly. It was a great discovery for me. Highly recommend it!

We ate here last night. Our server was exceptional. I ordered the corn beef and cabbage. The corn beef was so lean you could cut it with a fork. My husband ordered the chicken boxty. We both loved our meals. The decor was awesome. The owners had this bar restaurant moved over from Ireland. This was an awesome experience!!!!!!!!!

Great music, decor, and food. They have special drinks seasonally, and the decor changes with the seasons as well. The staff is always so friendly.

What a great find while walking around San Diego. Only had drinks but would have loved to try food. The bartender was literally the nicest guy! We had such a fun conversation. Thanks for making tourists feel welcomed! I forgot to add that my husband had their own IPA and loved it!

Is a breakfast sandwich and a pint the best hangover cure after imbibing in Gadlamp? Maybe. Is this the most friendly and authentic Irish pub I've seen since Dublin? Probably. Am I looking forward to making this a regular stop on my trips to SD? Definitely.

Visited on a friend’s suggestion that’s from Southern Cal. Excellent service with a true Irish feel. I heard they imported the furniture and much of the woodwork straight from Ireland.

Traditional Irish pub with great burgers and good beer

Had a drink with my coworkers outside at the patio here. The peanut butter cocktail is great!

Had corned beef and cabbage and it was meh. Service was so so. We just had beers and it took a while.

My favorite Irish pub. Great food and great service. Six of us had a wonderful evening.

Loved this one! Traveling across the US, Irish pubs are a bit hit or miss. This was a hit. Walking in, you immediately hear the music and see the old wooden tables and chairs and bar. Everything “feels” right on. The tap list and whiskeys on the drinks menu confirm the same thing. Food options are solid, too, including a strong highlight of more traditional Irish fares like potato soup, champ, and a variety of pies. For the less familiar, there’s also a good variety of American dishes- the guy next to me said the burger was really good. Personally, I ordered the lamb shepherds pie - it was probably the best one I’ve had on the west coast. Delicious meat and veg blend with an incredibly flavorful gravy. The potatoes and Irish cheddar on top were baked to perfection. Overall, excellent meal and it was relatively inexpensive for CA. Highly recommend visiting!

Typical bar scene and the food was not great. The coleslaw tasted like it had been sitting out for quite some time. Wouldn’t recommend it for food, but it’s probably a fun place if your goal is to get drunk and be loud on a night out.

Good food. Waitress on point. Very accommodating. Loved it

Didn't eat here. Stopped n had a couple drinks. Great atmosphere. The barkeep was great.

Nice Irish coffee sitting outside on a cool night people watching with patio heaters.

Could not ask for a better last meal for comic con. Great food. Great friendly service. Celtic punk music playing. An awesome end to an awesome day!

Great shepherds pie, good Guinness, and amazing chicken fingers. That was we got…

Great vibes. They nailed the Irish atmosphere, menu, music, everything. We watched pour a perfect Guinness and enjoyed a fabulous frozen Irish coffee (usually too sweet everywhere else). We stayed for an hour or more just enjoying everything! Job well done!

One of my favorite places in the gaslamp district.

Best Shepherd's Pie and Bread Pudding you'll find this side of the Atlantic.

Always a "must do" when visiting San Diego! Love, love, love it!!

Beer selection is awesome, and the Shepard’s pie is a must!!! Really cool spot, you got to stop in to see all things they have on their walls.

We discovered the Field Irish Pub in the Gaslamp Quarter of San Diego on YouTube and it looked authentic, so we added it to our list of places to visit during our ‘Big California Adventure’. By the time we got to the Field Irish Pub on the vibrant Fifth Avenue after a 3 mile walk, we were ready for cooling and alcoholic drinks. The very strong smell of cannabis on the way in to the pub was a little off-putting (might have been somebody sat outside where it is legal) but there was a good atmosphere in the pub and the staff gave us a friendly greeting. The Field Irish pub had a good look, with wooden interiors and from what we’d seen online, almost everything was indeed from Ireland. It seemed genuine. An Irish lady, who could have been the owner as far as we knew, asked if we were okay, even though she wasn’t (apparently) on shift. Friendly! So far, so good. We took prime seats at the bar and watched the L.A. Dodgers -v- San Diego Padres baseball game on a TV, knowing the battle was taking place just around the corner from where we were. The 3rd game of 3 was to take place tomorrow and we had originally intended to come back to the Field Irish pub for more drinks before and/or after we’d been to the game. We’d dutifully followed their Facebook page before our arrival and had seen the tasty looking food and thought we’d order that on a second visit to the pub - however the service we received on this visit was so dire we knew we would not be back. In the 2 hours we were in the pub, the staff behind the bar rarely approached us - even when our glasses were empty. We tried making eye contact as they were fussing around and chatting to their coworkers so that we could order more drinks, but it was almost like we were invisible - and the bar wasn’t really that busy. This was probably a good thing, as we only had 6 drinks (black and tan, Bud Light x 3 and Harp lager x 2 in imperial pints, not American sized pints) and the bill came to $57.99. Including the gratuity, we left a total of $70.00. Really, we shouldn’t have left one! This almost defined our experience of a visit to a San Diego Irish pub, but we unexpectedly ended up inside another - and only five minutes away with cheaper drinks and very friendly service.

It is full of personality as an Irish Pub. Very cool! Great server - bartender rude. Fish and chips were excellent, the chicken strips in the sampler basket were ice cold. Mixed review - would go again for ambience and a cocktail.

Wasn’t feeling like too much so get a chicken tenders and two portions of curry chips for both me and my boyfriend , whilst the portions were significant , it was still expensive for the food we got. They also added a surcharge of 5$ for what I don’t know!? Was very mediocre food for an extra price , with a guiness and a cocktail added in our total cost was 70$!

This bar had a good band which made things lively. The beer was very cold which you don’t always find even though you’re paying for it.

I just can't accept the underhandedness of hidden charges. This is a charge or charges that you do not made aware of until the final bill comes. The Field has one of these and why they simply don't add it to the menu price of all items in lieu this unethical practice is beyond me. Shame on them. I won't be back.

Was an awesome experience to be here and their vegan burger is to die for . Super collection of cocktails First to go last to come

Awesome place with great food and customer service. They also have my favorite Beer the Irish Kilkenny Cream Ale!
