About K.C. Branaghan's

K.C. Branaghan’s is a true local pub with outstanding food and drinks, served in a warm and friendly environment. Built to re-create a cottage pub, K.C. Branaghan’s has lowered ceilings and dark wood features reminiscent of many of the great pubs of Ireland. The back bar was hand crafted using the finest materials available, and each artifact hanging on the wall was hand picked by the owner himself.

Whether you are looking for a relaxing place to enjoy a few drinks, or you are looking for a great lunch or dinner, we hope you will join us. We feature a full menu with selections ranging from the traditional Irish Fayre, like Fish n’ Chips, Bangers and Mash, and Shepherd’s Pie, to fantastic Salads, Sandwiches and Burgers. Our entrees include Prime Rib, Filet Mignon, Grilled Salmon, Parmesan Encrusted Chicken, Shrimp Scampi, and the most authentic pastas in Long Beach. Some of our signature appetizers include our delicious Sausage Rolls, Spicy Potatoes, and Smoked Salmon. There is something on the menu for everyone.

We pride ourselves on our Draft Beer Selection, specializing in pouring the perfect Pint of Guinness each time. In addition, our lineup boasts other Irish favorites Harp, Smithwick’s, Kilkenny, and Magners. We also feature a large selection of craft beers, Sculpin, Racer 5, and Lagunitas to name a few.

Our full bar boasts a large selection of premium Irish and Scotch whiskeys, including Jameson, Knappogue, Midleton, Paddy, Glenlivet and Glenfiddich. You may also be interested in one of of our original Martinis or shots

Our pub is available for private parties or have us cater your next get together. You can also treat someone special with a Gift Certificate, available in any amount.

We are easily accessible from nearby freeways or an easy walk for our neighbors in Naples and Belmont Shore! Go for a walk around the lovely canals of Naples, then join us for a relaxed, friendly breakfast, lunch or dinner. Enjoy patio seating or challenge your friends to a fun game of darts in our back dart room.

Come for a drink, stay for a meal! We look forward to seeing you at the pub!

It is the day after a holiday weekend for Father's day and Juneteenth. Glad to still have our midweek night warriors.

We had two teams on the patio and two teams in the pub. I marvel how often some reluctant guests say they won't be staying long enough to do Trivia yet they get intrigued hearing the questions and they join nearby teams. 🙂

We learned about all sorts of Trivia in 7 rounds...you need to be there to know more! Thank you to August a new DJ in town who is interested in becoming a quizmaster! I let her sit by me and the microphone to give her a behind the scene glimpse of the magic of being a quizmaster. August is a natural on the microphone.

Hello Flag Day! It must be the exodus of the locals to graduation and post pandemic get away trip. We still had fun no matter what with Analog OGs and the Bar team playing. I make the rounds inviting all visitors and one pair of gentlemen on the patio were delightful to chi chat with. I guessed that they are musicians (my first hubby was one!). We exchanged our names and later I realized one of them said the name "Ferrell". Well I used to work for Musicians Local 7 in Santa Ana and I remember that actor Will Ferrell's Dad is a musician. Small world. I have been watching AR aka Antique Roadshow and it was showing how valuable autographs can be. I took this opportunity!

June gloom doesn't happen inside this fun Irish ☘️ pub as we have such bright minds here every Tuesday. We learned about Keanu Reeves movies, Find the Connection about lots of "lands" and more fringe trivia. I get trivia amnesia that quit and I haven't even left the pub yet. Today's DJ Rain election was The Jam and Band of Horses.

Thank you to the awesome staff of Ryan, Ginger, Lexie on social media, Kevin plus the maestro of delicious chef Jose with Allen! Being here is the closest thing to being back home in Dublin for this Naples neighborhood. A toast to my Auntie Lavinia in Dublin  who was buried today where Thin Lizzy's Phil Lynott rests. For being 6,000 miles away from family, trivia was my comfort tonight for an informal wake. Have a great week and live each day as it is your last as one day you will be right!
