OT: Vote Conor's for Fave Irish Pub in Michigan
Feel free to vote for your favorite pub, but here is my plug for Conor's...
I have no association with Conor's other than the fact it's a great place in Ann Arbor. Also, very authentic and not just a crappy bar that brands itself Irish. It was designed and BUILT in Ireland and imported. Plus, there's good food and good spirits.

Indy so I don't know anything about any other Irish bars in Michigan, but I love Conor's. My soon to be wife and I always make sure that we hit Conor's on every trip we take to Ann Arbor.

On that list besides Conor's, so it gets my vote!

The only bar you should be at is your own!

Ever have 5 customers, so if they are gone I close up shop!

MLive has clearly been putting away the Jameson early, because the shitshow that is McFadden's made this list.
March 13th, 2015 at 11:10 AM ^
made that list? All those bars are in towns that have like 11 people living in them.
Voted for Conor's by default. The only one on the list I've ever been to.

I suspect you have yet to reach the legal drinking age based on your knowledge of Michigan geography, and therefore, should not take part in this vote.

Those chicken pot pies tho...best I have EVER had!
March 13th, 2015 at 11:24 AM ^
I'll vote for Blue Lep if I damn well please

What makes a good Irish Pub anyway? I would say live music is at the top of the list since all Irish Pubs have the same look and beers anyway. I always thought Conor O'Neills was pretty boring compared to other pubs I've been to.

Live music is nice although it doesn't necessarily have to be a fixture of the bar.
Guinness and preferably more Irish beer/cider/whiskey options on tap. And pouring the Guinness the right way.
No green beer.
That's the bare minimum for me...

I really just appreciate that authenticity of the actual bar architecture at Conor's. It's not just a bar dressed up in Irish crap with an Irish sounding name. I was always impressed they built it in Ireland then imported the parts of the bar to Ann Arbor. I always feel a little transported when I step through the doors. And I guess it's more of a restaurant than a bar, but they have good food. Always been a fun place to watch the World Cup, too. Plus, it's pretty nice sitting outside Conor's on Main Street on a nice day to me.
I like Conor's and all, but I'd have to go with The Old Shillelagh in Detroit.
However, since Old Shillelagh is not on the list of choices, Conor's it is!
have never been to any of those bars. I still voted for Conor's; did I commit voter fraud?
My dog's name is Conor. They get my vote.
