McCaffrey's is an authentic Irish Pub with the greenest atmosphere
this side of the shamrock. Seamus and Rosie, both of Ireland, are
the owners of this Victorian Style Irish Pub. It is ornately
decorated, with greens, dark, rich woods and stained glass
reminiscent of the finer side of Ireland. Though they serve Guinness

"Best Fish and Chips"
Phoenix New Times 2006
"Yeah, yeah —
Guinness is still a meal in a glass. We're not about to argue with
time-honored barfly wisdom. But our dark Irish stout really hits the
spot when we down it with a tasty batch of fish and chips at Rosie
McCaffrey's, where Emerald Isle memorabilia and photos of famous
Irishmen add to the feisty, authentic pub feel..."

"The Irish are best known for their wit and blarney. But did you know they're credited with creating the claddagh? The romantic symbol - two hands holding a heart - dates to the ancient legends of Galway and represents love, loyalty and friendship. With this token in mind, take an inexpensive path..."

A Place to Exercise Your Irish!
Four Peaks Brewery - February, 2004
"It
is an unwritten law that, if you don't have a crazy St. Patrick's
Day party, you may not be able to call yourself an Irish pub. At
Rosie's, they block off the parking lot, open the doors at 6 a.m.,
and watch the place fill up with partygoers.
The Best Damn Irish Pub in the World!
Phoenix New Times - February 12, 2004
"The
best damn Irish pub in the world! Okay, you got us, we’ve never even
been to Ireland, but for Paddy’s sake, love, could get any better?
At the very least, it’s the best Irish pub in Phoenix.

"Before you enter Rosie McCaffrey's Irish Pub, you'll see a small, nondescript sign that reads Cead mile failte, which is Gaelic for "A hundred thousand welcomes." Then you step inside to a bar stocked with what seems to be a hundred thousand types of booze."

Rosie McCaffrey's Irish Pub
BeerAdvocate.com - August 29, 2003
A real to "God" Irish Pub, well forget the color tv's, the decor a 100% Irish Like Pub, good Irish and American food, a real friendly staff and some good Irish beers on tap and in the bottle. Also a great assortment of Irish Whiskey with some fine wines for those not inclined to the latter.

Arcadia News - June

"Rosie McCaffrey’s looks beyond the Irish theme of its decorator and gives us a great American restaurant rooted in Irish favors but frequently stepping outside of the box to offer some unexpected plates at simple Irish Pub prices. While the menu is broad in itself, the daily specials can range from a delicate halibut to a hearty Irish pot roast."

"So this Irishman walks into a Dublin pub and asks the bartender to set up three pints of Guinness. "How come three?" asks the publican. "One for me, and one each for my two sainted brothers in America," the Irishman replies."
