About Us
McKinley’s is never just a place to grab a bite or have a cold drink—it’s a place where memories are made. It’s karaoke on Saturday nights, cheering on the Canes with a room full of friends, music bingo, trivia, live music, dancing, sing-alongs, and celebrations that sometimes don’t need a reason at all. It’s comfort food on the table, drinks raised in the air, familiar faces walking through the door, and laughter that fills the whole room. From Derby parties and Cinco de Mayo to birthdays, giveaways, big games, and those ordinary nights that somehow become unforgettable, McKinley’s brings people together. Employees become friends, regulars become family, and a neighborhood Irish pub becomes a home away from home. The best part of McKinley’s isn’t just what’s happening on any given night—it’s who you’re sharing it with and the memories you’re making together.

What Our Guests Say
We went in to check out the place and have a beer, and we were pleasantly surprised: the food was excellent. I tried the pub dog, and it was out of this world — deep, delicious flavors, plus the portion was very generous. Cold beers and wings that you absolutely have to try if you go. The prices are very reasonable, and the service was fast and friendly. We’ll be back!!! 10/10

At this point, there’s no doubt about it: McKinley’s is the best bar in Clayton.
No matter what new places come and go, McKinley’s is simply the best of the best. Great food, great drinks, amazing service, and an atmosphere that always makes you want to come back.
We’re lucky to have a place like this right here in Clayton.
By far the best restaurant in Clayton, North Carolina, love the buffalo wings, delicious tangy, southern style just the kind of place I want to take my family!
