This was a good place to eat. I had the Shepards pie and by far it was the best. I can see myself returning.

I would have given this a very good rating, but both my friends said their chicken sandwiches were just OK. It was a very crowded night, as there was a country concert going on, so service was a little shaky, but I thought they did great despite it all. The most fun was after dinner when we sat outside on... More

Food was ok, decor was predictable. The waitresses practically had their bums hanging out of their much too short kilts - entertaining for some :) Guinness got the shamrock on top, but was poured so fast it was still settling into its dark loveliness for minutes. Their boxties are horrid, if you've ever had them elsewhere. Palatable if you don't... More

The food was excellent; all four of us were very happy with our meals. Service was very good. A fun place to eat in Jacksonville Landing.

This was our first visit. I love scotch eggs & was excited when I saw it in appetizer menu. When I ordered from bartender he said they ran out the night before but was sure someonen would have made them today. Well, they didn't, no scotch eggs. They had a whole day to prep, how hard is it to hard... More

This is a nice big place with an outside patio overlooking the river. It smelled great and everything we saw go by on the server's trays looked outstanding. We got the Shepard's Pie and French Dip sandwich with a side of mac & cheese. Again, everything LOOKS fantastic!! (see my pics) but just fell short on flavor. The Shepard's Pie... More

My wife and I went to Jacksonville Landing to see the river side's contemporary shops and restaurants, selecting MacCool's ahead of time. It had excellent Gaelic Ale for me while my wife found a pleasant list of wines and had Cliff Bay white wine. We had expected decent but not excited lunch, but found the Spring Rolls very good and...

I walked in here after lunch rush and there were plenty of tables to choose from the very large dining area. From where I sat, I had a view of the river which immediately brought back memories when this bar was called the Southend Brewery and Smokehouse in 2004. At that time, we sat out in the patio area and... More

Found Fionn MacCool's while walking to the Jacksonville Landing (in town on business). Really nice setup (on the water overlooking the St. John's) with authentic items from a Pub from Ireland. The beer/cider selection on tap was plentiful. Sat in the bar area - service was slow and after five minutes had to locate a server. I ordered the Chicken... More
