Irish breakfast, besides Burren?

[studeronomy.livejournal.com]

Does anyone have recommendations for a place to get both an Irish breakfast AND a beer tomorrow morning, before 11 a.m., that isn't the Burren? Need not be limited to Davis, but would prefer a place in the immediate Somerville/Cambridge area. Nothing against the Burren, we're just looking for something different this year.

Temple Bar, on Mass Ave, a little south of Porter, has an "Irish Fry" (http://www.templebarcambridge.com/brunch.html). I haven't tried it, but I have greatly enjoyed brunches there. I don't know if they can serve booze before noon--something in the back of my head is telling me Cambridge extablishments can't.

http://www.mass.gov/abcc/licensing/guide2.htm says that alcohol cannot be served before 8 am anywhere in the state, and that it's up to local option whether it can be served between 8 and 11 am. Every municipality has to allow it after 11 am.

I don't know what Cambridge, Somerville, and Boston rules are.

That's probably where I'll be.

It may be worth trying PJ Ryan's.

The Phoenix Landing in Central has a good Irish breakfast. It's a good crowd too, I like it down there.
