When local bar aficionados Vanessa and Terry realized that Rockville was lacking when it came to Irish bars, they decided to do something about it. They opened Finnegan’s Wake to fill this gap in the boozing community. It didn’t take long for the lively Irish pub to become a local watering hole.
Swing by between 4 and 7 p.m. or 11 p.m. and close on weeknights to enjoy authentic food and drink at happy hour prices. Order a bottle of Magners or Smithwick’s, grab a rail drink, or opt for a glass of wine and then turn your attention to the happy hour menu of apps. The crispy, panko-crusted mac and cheese bites come with spicy chipotle aioli for dipping. The potato skins bear gooey cheese, crispy bacon, and creamy tzatziki sauce. The house-made red pepper hummus features roasted pine nuts and red pepper pesto. Choose a bite and a cocktail, sit down for dinner, or come to Finnegan’s Wake for weekend brunch.
