At Paddy Red’s, everybody knows your name

Paddy Red’s is Downtown Fort Worth’s token Irish pub in a basement setting that’s cozy and comfortable. While the staunch regulars give this watering hole a Cheers-esque quality, new comers won’t get the stink eye upon entry; the more the merrier is the attitude here. In addition to the usual Irish pub selection on tap and over 100 bottles to choose from, Paddy Red’s also has a healthy selection of whiskey, scotch and vodka. They also have pool tables, darts and shuffleboard to complement any night out. For as “bar-ie” as this bar is, they also have extremely nice restrooms. Don’t come hungry, food does not grace their menu.

Apart from the whiskey, the Expo offers an assortment of food and hors d’eourves as well as luxurious spirits, like handcrafted vodkas, gins and other liqueurs. For those who love a great big Jack on the rocks, just consider this a dream come true.

The lively tradition and legacy of the Russian Tea Room is alive and well!
