Along with the beer and ale, a typical Irish pub can offer:

Bangers and Mash: Sausages (bangers) served with mashed potatoes.

Shepherd's Pie: A baked dish of ground meat (usually lamb) topped with mashed potatoes.

Irish Stew: A hearty stew made with lamb or mutton, potatoes, carrots, and onions.

Corned Beef and Cabbage: While not strictly traditional to Ireland, it's a popular dish in Irish pubs, especially around St. Patrick's Day.

Cottage Pie: Similar to Shepherd's Pie, but made with beef.

Irish Breakfast: A full Irish breakfast is a hearty meal with eggs, bacon, sausage, black and white pudding, grilled tomato, fried mushrooms, and toast, often served all day in pubs.

Pasties (Pass-teez): Puff pastry

And my favorite, of course, is the Irish soda bread served warm and freshly baked! Oh, yes! It comes with sweet butter, jam, and honey... m-m-m-m

I had a pastie with ham, turkey, and cheese.

I wanted to tell you lox is nothing like sardines which are yucky to me. I will admit that until my husband talked me into trying lox (salmon) I thought the same as you. Now, I can't wait for it to go on sale, so we can have them for dinner. Right now, I have 2 packs in the refrigerator calling my name.
