The plaza is really hard to access, tucked away right by the 520 freeway ramp and in the same plaza as 7-11. Cops often pull people. Good nice little pub though. Not a place where I'd just swing by, but would definitely be something more intentional to go there.

First of all, I have to say that the food and beer was pretty good, although not as great as it used to be. But that is about all I could say. This was the 4th time we came, and each time the service just got worse. The waitresses do not pay attention to the customers. When you ask for bread they bring you about 1/10 of what you would expect. Bread is cheap, but you would think you were asking for free main courses. Also, we tried to use 2 entertainment coupons for a party of 6 (We bought 5 entrees, 6 drinks, 3 appetizers) The book says we can use up to 3 per party. The waitress informed us that that is the way it used to be, but not any more. I went out to the car and showed her the book. She sent the manager out and he showed me on the coupon itself where it said "one coupon per party." I have never seen this in the last 10 years at any restaurant we have ever been at. Not only that, but it turns out the manager, Ben, is also the owner. He was incredibly rude and abrupt with us. This is obviously his policy. Treat the customers with disrespect and try and make as much money as he can. It will not work. We will never return! Pros: Good food, but deteriorating fast Cons: Bad Service & Horrile Management

The menu is unclear, unfriendly service & hospitality, insects fly around the seating section, and the overall food quality is not worth its value...and as far as the bands that play there? I cannot even get into it. My overall rating = Not Worth It!!! Pros: Great Beer Selection Cons: Terrible food & service

I live across the street, and was loving the idea of an Irish pub within walking distance so I didn't have to worry about driving after having a car bomb :) Unfortunately the car bombs are the only good thing there, and they're expensive! The first 2 times I went my beer glass smelled like it had been washed in the toilet. The third time my then boyfriend threw up after having the popcorn shrimp. The other food we've tried was not impressive. And if you go after 11 they look mad like they're trying to close up and go home, on a weekend night! I guess we'll have to look outside of Redmond for late night drinks and food in the future... Pros: location Cons: Service, food, cleanliness, parking

The place is Amazing, Very cool, the beer selection is outstanding, and the food was great. I love the place, I could not convince my wife to go home. I travel every where and I didn't see something like that...Cajun Food/Irish Pub....Very good, unique spot. I got banger and Mush, my wife got Jambalaya, oh boy, fantastic food between the best I ever had?.Well except my mom?s of course.

The Celtic Bayou used to be my favorite haunt in Redmond. Unfortunately, nearly everything I enjoyed about this spot has gone away in recent years. What used to be a brew-pub with decent food, great beer, great service and atmosphere to spare has turned into a character-less bar & grill with a decent beer selection, so-so (overpriced, over-seasoned, under-sized) food, and absolutely terrible service. The patrons of the Celtic Bayou have to share some of the blame - there are too many that seem far too willing to overpay for so-so food and poor service; but it takes a special lack of management ability to ruin such a gem of an establishment. Pros: good beer Cons: poor service, lack of parking, overpriced food, small portions

Was slightly worried when going in at 9:30 on a Friday night and finding us to be the only patrons except a few bar flies. For an Irish pub there was little life. The tables were semi-dirty and waitstaff not overly friendly. The hostess seemed surprised we wanted food. As we're placing our food order I have a fleeting thought we should go elsewhere as the waitstaff seemed bothered we were there but alas hunger pains were fierce. The food is wonderful, and large portions! DH ordered spicy cajun pasta and raved non-stop. He said the "heat" wasn't too much and still tasted the food. I ordered a large jambalaya (which could have fed two or three people) and loved the flavors and fresh ingredients. Corn muffin was okay, better after sopping up the sauce. We didn't find the atmosphere all that great, if anything severly disappointing. But the food alone will make us go back and try again, perhaps during the featured Irish music hours.

I always tell myelf I'm going to order something new each time I make a stop at the Celtic Bayou, but I just can't seem to get past the Bangers and Mash. It's the epitome of comfort food. This place also serves up a mean fish and chips, my girlfriend won't eat them anywhere else but here. The Bread Pudding is the best in Seattle/Redmon. I love this place and I haven't even made it over to the Cajun side of the menu. It's also a great place to hear some Zydego bands. Pros: Great Food Cons: Booths aren't too comfy.

This is definitely an interesting mix. The Cajun food sure is tasty - their gumbo is pretty good, as is the catfish. Great selection of beers. Friendly service.

great place to relax... variety of beers to try with always a new one on tap the owner is impressed by or wants to try out. the owner bartends a few nights a week to make a personal connection with the regulars and to have fun. in the summer you can't beat the outside sitting area. the foods is basic- but that is not why people go to the celtic bayou. there is new items on the menu regulary and seasonal specials that spice it up. the taste combinations are usually winners. if you go you will become a regular- there is a mug club- the place is a hidden gem in a quite random setting. try it out- and ask for eric- he is a great conversationalist and love to meet those that come to his restaurant. Pros: not crowded, darts, outdoor area, convienent location, great beer!
