The Thrillist website names The Old Shillelagh in Greektown as one of the 21 best Irish pubs in the United States.
Here's what the Thrillist has to say about the bar:
Opened in the mid-'70s by a Dublin-raised retired Detroit police officer, The Old Shillelagh has remained a Motor City staple ever since. Now under a third generation of family ownership, the massive, tented St. Patrick's Day party is legendary, and the free shuttles to all the major downtown Detroit sporting events and concerts make sure it stays appropriately rowdy the rest of the year.
