What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?

On Food Network's Best Thing I Ever Ate, in the 2011 episode "Eggstraordinary," chef Robert Irvine named the Reuben Eggroll at McGuire's Irish Pub as his favorite bite. McGuire's Irish Pub is a longtime Pensacola pub and restaurant with its own on-site brewery, located at 600 East Gregory Street. A direct check of the restaurant's website returned an HTTP 403 error on 2026-09-08, which blocks automated access without necessarily reflecting the business's status, but a Yelp business page for McGuire's Irish Pub, checked in a September 2026 review with more than 3,700 reviews and photos added that month, lists the pub with hours of 11am to 2am most days and 10am to 2am on Sunday. McGuire's own site, found in the same check, still lists a dedicated Pensacola location page with a current menu.
