Josie is a little gem “hidden” under one of the last buildings in the Village not owned by NYU. This pub is so Irish that we had trouble communicating with our waitress Eibhien (huh? .... Exactly.) #Sidenote I spend so much money in Irish pubs, I think they should make me an honorary citizen.

I ordered Josie House Ale which went well with the Stuffed Chili Cheese Potato Skins and Waffle Fries. The Waffle Fries were slightly overcooked but still quite tasty. The
Skins were utterly spectacular. Baked then topped with Chili and two cheeses, you just put a lil salt and 57 then let the party in your mouth begin!

Heartland Brewery is exactly what it sounds like, a local brewery. If you’re a beer enthusiast, you’ve already tried one of their signature brews like the Cornhusker Lager, Mothers Milk Maibock, and Smiling Pumpkin Ale. My buddy Jess suggested the Farmer Jon's Oatmeal Stout. With overtones of espresso and hints of oats, it was interesting to say the least.

We had the DEElicious sliders and the fries. They serve an interesting rendition of spicy fries. They seasoned them with Cajun seasoning BEFORE deep-frying them. Literally every other bar does the opposite. They get the E for Effort. The regular fries are more “edible” than the spicy fries because they’re softer and more palate-friendly. I will definitely make return trips to try their seasonal brews and other food selections!
