Description

Taking over the former Christopher's space, McCarthy's balances a large layout with a cozy feel. Every evening at 7 PM, musicians play Irish sessions directly from a booth, pairing with a kitchen that offers burgers, pulled pork, and a distinct plant-based menu. Next door at Toad, the stage spans everything from gypsy jazz to late-night covers, while an upstairs room handles open mics, trivia, and private gatherings.
