About Us
Owned and operated by the Wirth Family, Digger's Ales N' Eats is Downtown Riverhead's premier Irish Pub celebrating their 20th Anniversary. From the freshest local ingredients used in the daily preparation of every delicious dish, to the exceptional pints of Guinness and local Long Island Craft Beer, which now includes their own Crooked Ladder Brewing Company located right next door. Digger's is where "Irish is a State of Mind."
At Digger's Ales N' Eats Irish-style Pub & Restaurant, we've created the atmosphere, spirit and charm that allows our patrons to feel at home, unwind and enjoy good conversation, "there's no strangers at Diggers, just friends you haven't met." Revel in live entertainment or simply enjoy a quiet moment, Digger's 4,500 square-foot Pub allows a roomy place to meet for business or have a private event. Digger's extraordinary menu of Ales and Eats is what makes them the essential Downtown destination.
Digger O' Dells was relaunched in 2005 by husband and wife team, Stephen & Chéri Wirth as Digger's Ales N' Eats. Their main focus was to offer their guests a lively atmosphere, tasty food and an extensive selection of beer, spirits and wine, all served by a friendly and professional staff.
"Freshness is important to us and it's important to our customer, so we only buy the highest quality ingredients available. At Digger's, we're not just cooking burgers, we're cooking the freshest seafood in the Summer, our menu follows the seasons and what our local Long Island, North and South Fork purveyors have to offer. We pick and choose every morning, from the best of the ocean, bay, creeks and farms and we use it here in the kitchen."

Digger's unique business philosophy helped them develop a remarkably diverse customer base of really great regulars. From bankers to bikers to farmers, our loyal patrons defy categorization and made our success possible over the decades, "We sincerely thank them for their continued support and good times."
