Finn McCool’s Review

I am currently vacationing in Myrtle Beach SC and I have had some time to sample their wonderful cuisine in the south. Finn McCool’s fell a bit flat with my family and I. It is an Irish pub sort of theme and it has traditional Irish food, or what seem to be Irish ;) The overall atmosphere is like a pub and I think it’s supposed to feel that way. We were seated outside in the warm, humid South Carolina air. Our waitress took our drink orders and left. 15 minutes elapsed and she returned with our drinks and took our orders. 15 minutes for drinks? Uhhhh, I don’t think so. The food arrived at a reasonable time, but the side salads we ordered arrived along with our main courses. Uhhhhhh…. Salads come first? My father tried to order a rueben, but we were told that they were out of corned beef. They’re out of corned beef at 7? They were also out of mushrooms too. Ugh. Anyways, my stepmother had ordered grilled tuna, rare. When it came it out it was cold. Argh, if there’s anything in this family that we hate the most, it’s cold food. It was sent back and when it came back it was warm. I ordered the fish and chips, and those were decent. The plating of the dish was awkward, and a little irritating. The fish was perched precariously on top of a pile of chips, which I was told were ‘fries’. You know in England fish and chips are fish and fries. Fries are called chips there. I wanted fries. >.< Oh well. The dishes were reasonably priced, and the unsweetened tea there tasted awkward to me.

Bottom Line: Okay food, not the best, it’s good for if you’re in a hurry. Service was slow and abysmal and the tea tasted weird.
