50 Best Bars near Brecksville

“I've eaten here a few times as of writing this review. Overall, my experiences have been pretty good. Of all the times I've been here, there was only one negative dish. It was something the person had gotten many times before and they were surprised so it really felt like a one time thing. The management was really nice about the whole situation as well so it never soured the dinner experience. Every other time, our food was exquisite. The drinks are also pretty good. I've tried a different one every time and had been happy with all but one (which was a special and just not my cup of tea, there was nothing bad about it on the restaurant's side). The drinks are often pretty strong which is a plus in my opinion. The staff is great and the atmosphere is wonderful, especially if you can sit by the window on a nice day to see the restaurant's namesake, the creekside. Overall great and I will be visiting more in the future.“

“This is a really cool place for cocktails. Food is only cheese tray so not a dinner spot but wonderful cocktail menu with some cool history too. If you're local to the area it's nice to enjoy and not need to head downtown. We enjoyed our time out and will be back soon !!!“

“Family owned, neighborhood, old school pizza place. Have been going here for almost 40 years now, my kids and grandkids also enjoy it when we do. Original restaurant was in Northfield, then they opened one in Hudson, and now in Brecksville; owners Joe and Debbie are at the Brecksville location and will always greet you with a friendly smile, and 'sit anywhere you'd like'. Simple menu, doesn't really change, so you know what you're getting... pizza, Italian sausage sandwich, Italian sub sandwich, garlic bread with or without cheese, salad with or without cheese, double salad with or without cheese, various drink choices. Plan on paying with cash, as they do not accept credit or debit. Will always be my go to for pizza. Kathy T.“

“I haven't been here in a few years. I was pleasantly surprised how wonderful our experience was at Burntwood. The happy hour appetizers were only $8 and the food was plentiful (big portions). The drinks were reasonable in price, and they even gave each of us a complimentary glass of champagne. We really enjoyed the unique atmosphere- cozy and welcoming. We will be back soon!“

“Decided to try this place. It doesn't look like much from the outside but you have to go inside and it is such a cute small restaurant. We were seated in the back room and our server was really nice and knowledgeable about both the food and drinks menu. We ordered a few drinks, all were so cute and fancy. Had a few appetizisers and the elk burger. Also decided to try the kitchen snack, which our server said it's different every time and for each table - we got chicken and waffles and were totally surprised, we weren't expecting that for a snack. Definitely wanting to go back and tey other menu items and cocktails“

“Came before league bowling for the wing's special. The number of different sauce varieties is very imoressive. I had the Thai Chili Garlic and it was awesome ! Just the right amount of sweet and heat! I tried my husband's garlic Parmesan and it was 'ok'. It was a bit bland for my liking, but he enjoyed. I also had a Bacardi lemon with Diet Coke. It was good and great special price. This is a sports bar - plenty of TVs with sports and news. Our server was the best - attentive and kind. Don't let this strip mall location deter you from trying. It's a nice hidden gem!!! Definitely recommend ! Looking forward to coming back!!!“

“We were very pleased with our catering experience at Wild Eagle, in the patio room. The room was spacious, and had a nice selection of games, a large bar, and several tables set up for food and presents. The staff was top notch, helpful and courteous. The food was excellent and well portioned.Parking: Large parking lot.“

“Inn Cahoots is a wonderful place with great food, amazing staff, and comfortable environment. I come there often with my dad and it is always a wonderful time. The staff is very friendly and kind and treat customers with respect and care. Great. place!“

“wednesday is paprikash dinner night! oje of the best in the northeastern part of ohio! ANYTIME IS SIRNA BURGER TIME! COOKED AND TOPPED ANY WAY YOU WANT IT! THIS IS THE VERY BEST BURGER YOU WILL EVER HAVE! IT'S A 5 STAR***** BURGER FOR SURE! friday is walleye dinner day another terrific standing room only got to have it dinners! i usually get 2 or 3 pieces of fish and a couple of coke slaw sides to go! so yummy mmmmmm!“

“Place was packed. Parking awful. Being handicapped I had to walk way too far to enter. Very loud and noisy. Had a big group and had to shout to one another. My BLT was tasty. Service slow but the waitress was running around like crazy. Definitely needed more help. Have been here before and was much better the other times. Won't be bringing our group back here.“

“This is our favorite classic local bar and grill in the entire region, the history here is awesome and the ownership/leadership good people.Not only is the food excellent (best wings around but only on Wednesdays).The environment inside will amaze you.A truly “hometown haunt” where you can meet and chat with authentic and honest folks, while having the kids with you as a family weekly event. The craft beer selection is ALWAYS on point and unique.“

“Such incredibly amazing service & yummy sushi. They even went so far as to change the music playing overhead, to a request (piano music) to make our dining experience that much more enjoyable. We were the only ones present so far, at that moment, being there for opening of the day. Was fantastic tea, fresh fish, and hot soup. . . I love the beautiful purple flowers that garnish some of the plates & each meal is presented with such an artistic flare - I did not want to disturb the food to eat it, was so pretty as presented ! Could not have been better, for such an affordable price.“

“I was greeted and welcomed upon entering this awesome restaurant presumably the owner. I was presented my table in the lounge area and I thought I found a gem … a good eatery. I must say that the restaurant was beautifully decor’d with a pleasant atmosphere, soft music, food was delicious, and the service was excellent! Well, it didn’t start off that way. It took about 8-10 minutes to even be noticed and get a glass of water. It happens, I guess. Upon noticing their mistake, I was catered to throughout my visit to ensure I was completely satisfied … and I was! The owner stopped by several times and even offered a glass of good French wine as an apology but I hospitable declined … I was still the clock per se. The waitress was very apologetic, nice, and friendly. If you’re in for a great meal and great people to serve you … please stop by! I highly recommend this establishment for a good meal and enjoyable time.“

“Have but been here in quite some time. The burgers and chili are both good choices, I ordered the Kyiv burger, texas toast, burger and coveted in chili, all served in a bowl. Decent beer choices so everyone in our group is 6 could find something they would drink.Our server was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. One thing to make sure of when you come, is to bring cash as they do not accept credit cards. Cash and check are only options to pay your bill.“

“The owners of Union House have done an amazing job of updating the bar and restaurant while still maintaining the working man charm of the original. I wish I’d taken pics of the food, it was delicious. The burger (sourced from Whiteys in Richfield)is a generous half pound and cooked to perfection. Fun appetizers like the Tater Kegs (tots stuffed with buffalo chicken) and the Parma Wings, (mini pierogi tossed in your choice of several different wing sauces) are a fun shareable. The Wednesday/Friday fish fry is available year round and is delicious. Served with a side of fries and coleslaw it really hit the spot. For the more health conscious you can get a beautiful veggie plate or choose from a myriad of salads and grilled chicken.“

“We’ve been here several times, hidden little gem. Food is outstanding but tonight you outdid yourselves. We’ve been to several Clam Bakes but this one is hands down my new favorite!!! The BEST clam chowder I’ve ever tasted. We’ll be back next year and many times in between. Thank you!!“

“I'm from down South and I came up on vacation. It's a hood spot with some older people, but it's chill. I didn't get food but when I walked in my lights were still on, the security told me when they didn't go off after a few minutes. The bartender made my drink quickly and the owner checked the quality and even added another shot on the house. I was laughing and didn't feel from out of town.“

“Thomas, our server, was wonderful. Great recommendations and attention to our table. There was a lobster tail special with risotto that 2 in our party ordered. The other 2 ordered the filet mignon. We were able to make our own surf and turfs. Everything was delicious.“

“Loved our time at D'Agnese last night. The food was delicious and when I ordered my pasta GF, the chef asked if I wanted my chicken D'Agnese GF too. I was so impressed by this and how delicious it was, we will definitely be back, even though it is one of our favorite restaurants. Service, food, ambience totally five stars!!“

“I think my twin was the chef that discovered the steak and asparagus salad. I’m from Pennsylvania and didn’t even miss the French fries because the abundance of red onions, blue cheese and tomatoes mixed with the vinaigrette dressing made it even more enjoyable than a one of my favorite dinners; steak and asparagus. I didn’t have to pick around cucumbers and green peppers. Not just a salad, it was an outstanding dinner.“

“What a lovely little spot! I'm all about a good dive bar and we found the best one in Cleveland! Sherry & Simone were so welcoming, it felt like home. A pool table & curated jukebox were great additions and although we didn't eat (Sloppy Joes $4), I'm sure they were delicious. Inexpensive, charming & the visit left me with a huge smile on my face, knowing this was one of those special places.Can't say enough good things, just an all around great time. This place is a real as it gets. If you are in Cleveland, pay them a visit, tell em Patti from Philly sent you. ??“

“I miss Benny's... But Lucky's got me emotional it felt like I was back home in ?? only thing missing was the playa/ Beach and the heat the food was delicious we got the buffalo wrap ,messy fries,wings, potato skins... Then the bathroom smells pretty and it's kept clean even the security ppl are nice and I love they have themed nights also that all DRINKS are 50% ALL DAY...“

“Krista is the best she made me a drink based on me saying I dont really drink and I like sweet things! She knows what shes doing she had the perfect drink for me it was great! The food was good and the environment is just overall fun! Had a great time!“

“Visited El Palenque with friends from work. All of us said the food was good. We had burritos, chicken quesadillas, and one had soup. Carlos was our server and he was very attentive. Excellent service!!! If we asked for something, we received it immediately. Excellent service is rare now and days. So big kudos to Carlos and the staff that assisted him. Oh yes, the drinks we had were tasty too....Pina colada, strawberry margarita, sangria, and beer . I would go back to eat there again!“

“Went during a totally packed house for a big sports event. The service team did amazing and took care of everyone. The food is solid here and you get a nice portion for the money. This is a place you should visit if you just want a little time to relax.“

“We aren't bar people lol but we've been ordering to go from their kitchen and their food is really good and so fairly priced! 3 meals plus some extras last night cost $33 before tip..... You really can't beat it. Their burgers have been great every time we've ordered and they have good, beer battered fries.Also the bartender was completely amazing and receptive to learning harm reduction education from me with 0 resistance? They now have narcan behind their bar so they can respond to any overdose situation, if one were to occur, as well as other harm reduction tools and education materials she allowed me to leave for their customers to utilize and learn more I will Always support and advocate for businesses that are willing to help us save lives and combat this war on drugs“

“If you are looking for a smaller ,family run business to enjoy a lunch or dinner , then Tinkers is the place. Sometimes there is a wait .....but, absolutely worth it!The food is prepared fresh, to order and is always filling and delicious. They do have a set set menu that covers all tastes , a children's menu and dessert menu.Never disappointed with the plate presentation , the taste and the amount of great food you get.In the warmer weather they offer outside seating along Tinkers Creek in the park and wood burning pits in the cooler weather. Great atmosphere and a VERY good staff.“

“Food was good, Good Burgers! They carry NA as I don't drink but like the taste of beer. Braid was awesome band was good, just kinda slow as hardly any customers. New bar owners so I hope they get a crowd coming soon! There pizza looks awesome, going to have to try Next time! Barmaid was excellent, Definitely have to go back!“

“The food is ALWAYS on point. The staff is super friendly. The drinks are strong and the vibe is great. Security is there on busy nights but there are never any problems. Patio area for smoking. If you wanna have a good time for a reasonable price, please check this place out!“

“They have an amazing selection and the staff are knowledgeable about whiskey. You can drink cheap or expensive here.Parking: Open parking lot. Free, plenty of space unless the bar is literally full.Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs or ramps. I don't have a wheelchair but if I did I can't think of any issue I would have including restrooms.“

“It was a very busy place from the looks when you walk in. It didn't take any time at all to become noticed by the bartender. She politely took our orders and we were served in no time at all. It had a great atmosphere and good choice of music. When in town I will visit again. OH and the fries have an awesome seasoning.“

“I had ordered my burger medium rare. When it came out it was rare IMO. So I sent it back. Francesca, our server couldn’t have been nicer about it. I had taken two bites before I decided I just couldn’t do it. I told her to nuke it a minute and it would be perfect. They completely redid the burger, bringing a new one out. I couldn’t believe they did that. A lot of places just send you the same product out, and usually overcooked. ?. Not in this case. Francesca couldn’t have been nicer and more attentive. The burger and fries were awesome. You could tell it was made from fresh ground beef and not some preformed frozen patties. The toppings were all fresh and packed high. I had to mash the heck out of it to get it in my mouth. The fries were awesome as well. Done just right. My wife’s burger was cooked to perfection. (She likes well done) and she had hush puppies which were very tasty. I had a cup of clam chowder to try and it too was exceptional. Large chucks of clams in a super tasty broth with celery and carrot. I highly recommend stopping by and trying them for yourself. We will stop by anytime we are close.“

“I love this place. Truly. Mel is one of my favorite people in the world, and to have her as a bartender is even better. Lin is also another definite stand out.Great food, good drinks. It being a trucker bar can be kinda hit and miss with the people. I’ve had great conversations and times with people here, and sometimes it makes you wish these guys would just stay in the truck, and keep the clowning to 19.But hey! Such is life. Get the prime rib if you can! It sells fast!“

“Its been quite some time since I have been at this bar. But let me just say, I enjoyed my time here when I went. My husband and I decided to go out and get some food. The food was absolutely amazing. I really want to try and make this a weekly thing to go here and eat. The girls working behind the bar was so nice and welcoming. The cook was the best. I sat right by where they cook the food and the interacted with us alot. The people we sat by were pretty nice. Hopefully we can actually see these people again. They seem to be regulars there. I will for sure be returning to this bar. Thanks for everything.“

“The burgers here were really good, but nothing to really write home about. This place had your typical American sports bar atmosphere. The service was pretty fantastic and couldn't really have been better on a fairly busy Wednesday night during a Guardians game. Their tater tots are really good. The kids enjoyed their burgers and mac and cheese. We ordered the Buffalo chicken dip, which was really good, but gave all of us stomach issues it seemed - so I would definitely steer clear of that. Would give them 5 stars if it weren't for that issue.“

“Great dj on thursdays JOHNNY NIGHTRAIN.. they opened up their kitchen again and serving up some unique bar food, big bar with patio, right by highway, 2 pool tables (need cleaned and refelted, and leveled.. HINT HINT) But great bar all around.. always have good time with “

“Say hi to "AL"...the new 6.0 "Rick O'kragly" bartender A.I. server who serves it like it's his last burboun, last shot, last beer...?????Low key and neighborhood bar where my lifelong friend serves the Garfield Hts locals with Rico suave'...“

“So this place--warm welcoming vibe with the friendliest people and a chill quiet atmosphere. They literally stayed open for our queer hang post-Monday night community bike ride.We made friends with the fantastically lovely bartender who stayed open for us (Deajah). And George literally left us a welcome package to make our day. (sob)The drinks were awesome, with some fun ciders and a decent selection of stuff. They were chill about us bringing in some pizza and even have suggestions and a connection for where to get it. There are games to play (like jenga) and a pool table. And we just haven't felt so loved on, randomly, maybe ever.Thanks for making our day!“

“You won’t find a better steak dinner for under 11 dollars. Steaks cut at about an inch thick. Comes with a small side salad and a baked potato with warm butter and sour cream. Can’t beat it. Bar is decent and always been happy with the service.“

“This is our neighborhood bar. A few have shut down over the past few years, but TOB is the go-to place for a laid back atmosphere that feels like home. There have been staff changes, and I work a lot now. So I don't know who works when... But the owners Mama Sue and Papa Jim are wonderful people. Todd is the best bartender in CLE! Check them out.“

“Stopped by for a Taco pop up with Puentes Tacos and enjoyed some drinks on Gino's beautiful patio. Seating was limited but they will be in full swing when the weather gets better. Bartenders were quick and friendly.Features: Huge beautiful patio with outside bar ?“

“I went here to enjoy a night out with staff and it was the perfect little bar that we needed. The staff was so friendly and great listeners. I ordered a tequila sunrise and a prime rib philly steak sub with fries and mozzarella sticks. I absolutely loved both! The mozzarella sticks are topped with parmesan cheese and were cooked just right. This is a great place for a quick bite to eat and drink. The Dj was also full of life and was very entertaining ? Thank you! ?“

“If you are looking for a place with a lot of televisions showing sports, this is definitely the place to be. They had about 13 screens in there. Also, the DJ was great. The atmosphere was nice and we had a lot of fun. We did not eat food from there but just had food catered in and hung out and had a party so it was fun.“

“I love the town tavern! It’s such a fun atmosphere! My friends and I can’t get enough of the place! The service is awesome! Especially Rayann! She is awesome! She does an amazing job serving us, very patient and kind! A very hard working girl! I love going to the town tavern and having her as a waitress!!“

“this was my first time coming in here and I was surprised at how spacious the place was and I love that when I walked in people were on the stage tearing it up. It's great that they have an patio area for the ones who need a smoke break. I did not know that they had food, I don't think I smelled any when I walked in. The dj did a decent job with the music, he played music to match his crowd. The old people got their music and the young people got their music. I feel like I will come back!“

“Awesome spot the food is on pointWings are bangin burgers are awesomeNew Specials almost everydayGood selection of beer and liquorOwner is very sweet and attentive always checking on people when I stop inBartenders all a bunch of sweetheartsNever had an issue“

“In Peninsula for the Ramp Up Festival with friends. Decided to stop here for lunch. They have a good selection of craft beers. I ordered a mushroon bacon burger with onion rings. Burger tasted good but was a bit dry. Ordered medium and got well done so it was not juicy how I like them. Onion rings were crispy and good. They had a special ramp flavored IPA on tap, a very unusual beer with a garlicky finish. Our server was excellent today. Patio seating was nice on a sunny day.“
