Trinity Hall Description by Tom W
Forget the usual dark, musty image of Irish pubs. Trinity Hall at Mockingbird Station is extremely handsome – and authentic down to its sunny yellow wallpaper.
Owners – or, as they prefer, proprietors – Marius Donnelly and David Norman named it for Trinity College in Dublin, and the décor was inspired by the Provost's House on that campus. With the exception of the wood flooring, almost everything you see – from the 32-foot bar to the tableware – was brought from Ireland. Much of it was made in small family workshops.
The menu surpasses pub-grub expectations, too. Chef Oscar Gutierrez has updated traditional Irish fare with modern cooking techniques.
The bar offers a good range of beers – heavy on the Irish accent, of course – both on tap and in bottles.
Trinity Hall offers "hearty" Irish breakfasts on weekends (from opening until 2 p.m.). Adjacent to Angelika Film Center, the pub is accessible by elevator from the underground parking garage.
