Paddy Barry's: The best Irish pub in Quincy

Paddy Barry's is a small pub in Quincy center, and a great place for a pint with friends while listening to live music. It's long and narrow, and I wouldn't really call it cozy, but it's comfortable and friendly and the Guinness is as good as can be. They don't serve food, but it's located right next to Napoli Pizza, so that doesn't matter. The main reason I recommend it is because they host some good Irish bands there.

Be careful of sitting down the end where the bathrooms are, as you may see more than you really want to.
