Eugene Snowden

Posted on July 28, 2017January 21, 2018 by Joe Del Rocco

There is a great little Irish pub in downtown Orlando away from the main street called Harp & Celt. It’s actually two separate pubs connected together. In addition to a great atmosphere and occasional authentic music, the food is very good as well, including some classics, Americans dishes, and currys. A local group of musicians…
