Great for a private party. We had my Sisters 40th Birthday party here last night and had a great experience! The service was great, we also had a fun and awesome bartender. The apps were good and the price was fair. Would use again for a party.

I hate this place. This bar is horrible. I have been there many times over the last couple of years, and each time I am probably more disappointed than the next. First off, the service is the worst of anywhere I've ever experienced. Secondly, the drink prices are outrageous for such small glasses. Thirdly, the Garage entertains the worst music I've ever heard. Don't ever come here. Oh, and last time I was there my friend and I saw a rodent run across the floor.

Live Entertainment. Perfect venue for live entertainment, plenty of space seperated from main bar, decent drinks & service.

This St. Paul landmark serves traditional food and hearty libations--and packs in music fans like sardines.. In Short
What was once a humble family-owned pub in 1941 is now a six-roomed family-owned bar, restaurant and nightclub. The crowd is mainly frat boys in baseball caps, fans of roots rock and blues, and folks from St. Paul's Mac-Groveland and Merriam Park neighborhoods. In the Shamrock Room, big bands and small jazz combos play on weeknights and a pianist leads sing-alongs on weekends. In back, the big Garage features alternative rock, Americana, reggae, blues and funk.

Great Service great atmosphere.. Was in on a thursday to grab a couple drinks before going to dinner and we were pleasantly suprised with the service. We sat at the bar and was taken care of by our bartender Justin. We were having such a good time that we decided to have dinner at O'Garas instead of leaving for dinner.

Its a great local bar with lots of history (which is displayed on the walls). People are nice and the atmosphere is perfect. Everything you would want in your favorite bar. We dont live in the area, but we will stop in anytime we are!
