Winning Wednesday: Wexford Irish Pub
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — A local Irish spirited pub was named one of the best in the U.S. after being in business for a little over six months.
The Wexford Irish Pub was featured as one of the 44 restaurants in the USA TODAY's 2025 Restaurants of the Year in February.
The feature described Wexford as close to an Irish heritage museum with architecture and food conveying the story of Irish immigration to the Hostess City.
'I think the first thing is that we were just astounded,' Co-owner Jennifer Strickland told WSAV. 'The second thing was grateful and the third was excited and maybe a little nervous.'
Co-owner Tim said that he and Jennifer's father, Stan Strickland, previously worked on the building around 40 years ago. The bones of their restaurant is a testament to the work of their father.
Co-owner Chris Swanson said he likes looking at the bigger picture and they are appreciative for all the hard work everyone has put into making Wexford a proper pub.
