Welcom to the Ugly Oyster Drafthaus

A truly authentic Guinness Irish Pub in Pennsylvania offering all the warmth and familiarity of a neighborhood pub! Enjoy small group intimacy among the private snugs tucked throughout or join others at the bar. Nightly you will very likely happen upon a bit of frolic, friendly conversation, laughter and song, surrounded by comfortable rich wood tones and superbly detailed appointments, you will soon be transported to Ireland.

To create this beautiful atmosphere, the bar and appointments were designed and constructed by highly-skilled craftsmen in Yorkshire England, and shipped here to be reassembled by those same artisans. The warm interior pub section boasts a big, friendly hardwood bar where "everyone knows your name," and a back dining room with wainscoted walls and artwork from the old country.

Of course, a trip to an Iris pub would not be complete without the sounds of Ireland, and at the Ugly Oyster, the background music is perfect. With live Irish music every Thursday, you can sit back and enjoy or sing along with your favorite pub tune.
