Built in 1970 by the people behind Tam O' Shanter Inn on Los Feliz Boulevard and Lawry's the Prime Rib on La Cienega Boulevard, this below-street-level downtown pub with its dark wood paneling, pressed tin ceiling, polished wood floors, brass rails and mahogany bar has been used as a location for Hollywood productions, including "Good Night, and Good Luck" and "The X-Files." It caters to a lunchtime and after-work Financial District crowd, and the food's a big cut above most pubs. The fish and chips is actually delicate; the shepherd's pie has lamb and parsnips as well as beef and carrots. Six British beers on tap, also Belgian ales and microbrews.

I becam4e a regular at caseys this fall.. the food was really good and cheap at happy hour, the crowd was great, the servers were lousy, but the bartenders were good and quick.
Since coming back to School this January, its taken a nosedive. THE FOOD IS HORRIBLE! The aitresses are unattentive and seem distracted. I spoke with the manager and she was extremely unpleasant, and asked me at one point "what are you Jewish?" which I am!!! I was horribly offended and won't EVER go back.

This place rocks! They have a great happy hour with food and drink specials along with a free pool table, live music, and NFL Sunday Ticket on 8 plasma screens. The bar is packed for the USC games when what seems like the entire student body descends to cheer on the Trojans.

Casey's is a great happy hour bar and a decent place to catch a game. Weekends aren't that great, but it's a good place to start if you're heading Hollywood later on.
