Long Beach offers three useful settings for an Irish pub: Downtown and the Pike complex, Shoreline Village’s harborfront promenade, and Naples near the coast farther east. Distance changes the evening: one pub sits by the convention center, another faces the water, and the third is near the canals and Belmont Shore. Long Beach Transit publishes maps and trip planning to connect the districts; a waterfront and downtown route can be walked, but Naples should not be assumed to be a short stroll from the harbor.
The Auld Dubliner on Pine Avenue is closest to the convention center and the Pike. The tourism directory says parts of its interior came from Dublin and highlights Guinness, Irish whiskey, shepherd’s pie, and fish and chips. The official website publishes private-event information and daily hours, making it practical for dinner during a downtown visit or a late stop with music when the calendar lists it.
At Shoreline Village, Shenanigans Irish Pub & Grille adds a patio, pool, televisions, and live music. Its menu combines fish and chips and corned beef with pub snacks; the business advertises weekday happy hour and separate kitchen hours. In Naples, K.C. Branaghan’s offers breakfast Friday through Sunday, brunch, seven sports screens, and a neighborhood-pub setup without reservations for regular tables. Maps reviews mention food, music, breakfast, and service at these locations, each with a different pace.
The choice depends on the route as much as the drink. Auld Dubliner suits Downtown; Shenanigans works for a harborfront stop with entertainment; K.C. Branaghan’s is a fit for breakfast or dinner around Belmont Shore and the canals. Check each branch’s menu, kitchen hours, and calendar to decide whether the visit is a sit-down meal, a pint after a walk, or a night built around music and sports.
