James E. McNellie’s Public House

In Midtown, McNellie’s brings together three floors of dining and bar space at a corner in the district that links downtown with Heritage Hills and Automobile Alley. Visit OKC lists it among the neighborhood’s Irish pubs; its parent group describes it as an Irish-style pub with homemade food and a broad selection of draft and bottled beer.

Its size makes it possible to change plans without leaving: have lunch, watch a game, order a pint, or reserve a room for a gathering. The official location menu includes pub dishes and Irish favorites such as fish and chips, cottage pie, and a Reuben, alongside burgers and sides. Customer reviews consulted often praise the beer range, food, and atmosphere, with more activity during games and on weekend evenings. The latest OKC monthly beer list we could locate, dated November 2025, listed a 20-ounce Guinness stout; because the group says its beer list changes monthly, we cannot confirm that it is available today.

Classen Drive sits in Midtown, several miles south of Sean Cummings’ address on May Avenue. The OKC streetcar connects parts of downtown and Midtown, but reaching May Avenue from here requires checking EMBARK routes and the final leg. The group site accepts reservations and provides private-event information, useful for a group meal rather than an unplanned stop.
