Devour Positively Delicious Home-Cooked Irish Food At The Parson’s Pub In North Carolina
It’s a swift coincidence that standing in the middle of historic downtown Murphy, North Carolina – a tiny town with an Irish name – is an Irish pub and restaurant for all to enjoy. The small town in the westernmost portion of the state has a year-round population of merely 1,700 people, but sees regular tourism surges throughout the year. If you’re among the many that find yourself seeking a getaway in this mountain town, then be sure to visit the Parson’s Pub for home-cooked Irish food.
Parson's Pub opened in 2014 on Tennessee Street right in the middle of town.
Parson's Pub takes great pride in this extensive beer list. There are more than 80 beers from which to choose. You'll want to get right on that as soon as you arrive.
It's filled with loads of Irish choices — and then some! Arrive with the luck of the Irish and you may get a crock of their occasional Guinness Stew special.
We've heard that people cross state lines just to get at this sandwich. It's stuffed with corn beef in a marbled Rye with Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and sauce. Served toasted, it's positively perfect.
It's similar to a home-cooked chicken pot pie — only better! Topped with a puff pastry crust, this entree may soon soar to the top of your favorites list.
If you've been craving great Irish food for awhile, then you've come to the right place.
The menu also includes favorites like Corned Beef and Cabbage, Goliath Beans, Potato Cakes, and Irish Pastry Pies. For those seeking more familiar tastes, there's a burger, fish sandwich, salads, French Onion Soup, and more.
