It's a well known fact that the Irish love their sport with a good brew and food. Jameson's has made its name as one of the recognized sports bars in Hollywood. They serve a wide selection of whiskeys and a list of well brewed beer that you can choose to have while watching your game. They can play pretty much any game on the TVs ranging from favorite Irish teams to boxing matches. Their food is something people would love to come back for. Another factor that has lead to the popularity of this pub and sports bar is that it is quite affordable. You can hardly find anything on the menu that goes over 10 dollars. So come and down to have whiskey or a pint.
