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.

Another groovy Tuesday at K.C. Branaghan's with entertaining trivia with the locals and visitors!!! Every time I enter a venue, it is a combination of returning teams and inspiring new teams to be born. I am the midwife of trivia birthing new trivia babies! Or like a quizmaster stripper with clothes on enticing to get participation...ok,maybe that was a g-string stretch but the players liked that quick thought on Tuesday. 💃🏽

We were all enjoying the answer times for each round as I call out to teams with the right answer to respond. The wrong answers get equal time on the mics as we all laugh at the well intended near misses which are sometimes poetic. 

The new trivia challenges covered art on characters, literature, British poet laureates, Marvel Comics, LED and more. 

Stick around to the end of the night when I do a lightening round with some locals at the bar who missed the game but still show up for the highlights. Thanks to the great staff of owner Ryan, Ginger, Maddie, Kevin, Jose and Philippe. 
May is Mother's Day on May 8th so bring your favourite gal -Mom, sisters, wives, girlfriends even Grannies to our King Trivia nights. Toasty Strudel brought Mom and Dad plus A Wee Bit Irish brought Mom. Slainte!

I submit my show and tell pic of the week with me and my fellow newbie senior clowns in the tale end of the 12 weeks clown college. We ar practicing skits for our April 23rd graduation.  I need to practice my balloon animals so I should start doing that pre trivia next Tuesday for the patrons. My clown name is Lucky LaLaLa to honor my Irish roots of my folks plus my love to sing. 

So we had an assortment of teams from the 3D team of the Dynmaic Denim Duo with Alyssa sporting her Almost Famous homage to Goldie Hawn's daughter. The Bats were dealing with  belfries and they won 2nd place. The bar team had Scott and Ginger answering old school by self graded napkins with their answers. Grandma's team was part human part furry friends of two owners and their big dogs on the outdoor bar.

Congratulatioms to our returning team of the coast guards. The 3D duo were tough on them for the exact correct answers. We joked about how coast guards never forget! 🙂 

I will be doing a special pre Easter raffle for some surprises for trivia players so come join us and invite your neighbors and friends. Thank you Ryan, Ginger, Kevin, Jose and the kitchen staff for another awesome night in Naples Irish style Cheers pub by the sea.

Congratulations to the three winning teams. (Alcoholligans- please get your reward on your next visit!) It was entertaining from the pre show through the final moments. Thank you to the staff for graciously handling a loud liquified "third generation Long Beach" female before the game. Whew! Wasn't the Oscars drama enough for one week?! 

We had 7 rounds of intriguing questions. The late visit by former longtime lovebirds who have since flown the coop was another theatrical adventure which we toasted in good sport no matter how many years they have been together or part. Whatever it takes to keep the trivia sideshow rolling! It is the LBC so never a dull moment.
