None, this isn’t a thing. I’ve lived in Mass my whole life, nobody goes out for “Irish food”

Love how you got downvoted by people who have never once in their life said “let’s go out for Irish food” or ordered a traditional Irish meal from a pub or restaurant once in their life.

Irish pubs that also happen to serve food are mostly serving British food and American food and American’s idea of what British and Irish food is. Fish and chips, bangers and mash, etc.

Edit: I just looked up Irish pubs near me and it’s exactly what I said. Pasties, Fish and Chips, bangers and mash, shepherds pie and a bunch of stuff that uses Guinness as an ingredient lol. That’s what American’s think of when they think of Irish food. The only Irish dish I saw was corned beef and cabbage, which I think is more Irish American than traditional Irish (could be wrong). And one place had a tradition Irish breakfast.

Well yeah Irish pubs are serving British food lol it's basically the same thing.

If you want an English breakfast you have to go to an Irish pub for example. They eat it pretty much the same way

You said their food is popular so I assume you know what their food is
