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!

The week before St. Patrick's day festivities. Get your luck of the Irish ☘️ playing trivia to sharp your wit and wisdom while socializing. Gone are the days of pandemic pause and social distancing. Working on those happy days are here again. Hoping for more peace and love in the world starts at home and there is lots of kindness and comfort in this fine Pub by the sea. 

Great to see the return of winning teams like  Toaster  Strudel  and Tutus. Welcome to new teams the Dudley's, Early Wine and Kept Men who are related to the Strudels. It was a bit of a friendly family feud as a working wife of the Kept Men team has a sister, her father and a cousin on the Strudel team. Thankfully once the dust settled on their competitive kidding, there was a big reUnited family team picture. 

We learned a bit about Paris, ice cream, pop culture and other various things. We celebrated International Women's Day with female rock band music between questions as well as Irish female singers. 

I was so glad to be back at K.C. Branaghan's after another car 🚙 repair episode.  I am wishing for more Irish ☘️ luck for better wheels! With the increasing fuel hikes, plug in electric cars are looking like a great idea.

So for next week's trivia night let's celebrate St. Patrick's day early.  Wear green and let's have more fun. I will have an array of old time and modern Irish tunes ready as your Trivia dj! Slainte!! Congratulations to the winning team and much appreciation of the great owner Ryan and staff Ginger, Maddie, Kevin, Chef Jose and Lorenzo.
