It's not just a bar (with Irish influences), it's also a quality pub/restaurant that is family-friendly in the early hours of the evening. Later, there is often a live band, and the scene becomes more pub nightlife.

Sightseeing

Peakes Quay is must destination when staying downtown Charlottetown. It has a little bit of everything -- quaint, touristy shops, a boardwalk, live music, a pub-style restaurant with a great outdoor deck and view, ice cream, and food trucks -- Look across the park for Founders Hall, here you will find Dave's Lobster Rolls (a bit expensive, but my favourite lobster rolls).
