About Us

Legend has it that it was an evening sipping Irish whiskey with some buddies in 1986 that provoked Jim Kiernan to open an Irish pub. Whatever the inspiration, Irish Eyes has been serving families a taste of the Irish right here at the Delaware beaches ever since. In the grand tradition of the pubs the Kiernan family loved to visit in Ireland, Irish Eyes is a second home for the whole family and a family unto itself.

Stop by for lunch or dinner, seven days a week, and try out our Irish classics and our local favorites. Feel free to bring the wee ones, as we have a great Kids’ Menu and the little lads and lasses are some of our most esteemed regulars! Even the (well-behaved and leashed) furmily are welcome in designated spots at both the Lewes and Milton locations!

Or leave the young ones at home and come out for an evening of live music and merrymaking! Make sure to check out the events calendar to see who is playing and what other fun stuff we have coming up! We also take Happy Hour seriously around here, with fantastic food and drink specials. We think every day should be a party!

In fact, Irish Eyes loves a party so much that we will be overjoyed to help you plan your next occasion in The Lewes Room. With in-house catering, a full bar, dance floor, elevator and enclosed deck overlooking the canal, we have the perfect spot for your party. Let our professional staff do the work so you can have the fun! Irish Eyes Pub is your home for great fare, great times and great people at the beach. Stop in and see for yourself!
