Reviews from real people! • Run of the mill” • Reviewed 20 January 2013 : Not great. Not bad. Just about exactly what one would expect of a Sports Bar. Not being a sports fan myself, I question why I acceded to go. Food was passable if a little on the pricey side for what it was. • “Great spot!!!!” • Reviewed 5 April 2012: person found this review helpful: One of my new favourite places to meet up with my friends. Very nice girls and their menu has something for everyone. • Really?” • Reviewed 10 September 2012: person found this review helpful : We booked a room for our friends birthday party, when random people started coming into it one of our friends politely asked them to leave after they finish the game, the guys were very rude to her. and when a waitress tried to punch her in the face. things got out of hand, the Georgetown shoeless Joe’s has great food. but tame your waitresses and show some respect for your customers.
