“In the dimly lit heart of Cleveland Heights, there exists a sanctuary for the night's most zealous seekers, The Tavern Company. This isn't your garden-variety watering hole; it's a haven where the spirits flow as freely as the conversations, and the air vibrates with the potential for madness. Tuesday nights transform this joint into a coliseum of intellect, where trivia becomes the gladiatorial sport of choice. Teams huddle, whispering strategies over pints, their eyes alight with competitive fire. Here, amidst the clink of glasses and the triumphant shouts of victors, lies the essence of what it means to truly engage with the pulse of the city. The Tavern Company doesn't just serve drinks; it brews a potent mixture of camaraderie, challenge, and sheer, unadulterated joy.“
“I was traveling through the area and am very fortunate to have found this jewel! The atmosphere was welcoming and the food was absolutely fantastic!! I started with fried pickles, which were crunchy and simply delightful. Our entrees were incredible. It was obvious that the food was prepared fresh from high quality ingredients, and I want to come back again and again!!!!!“
“The Rowley Inn is a genuine dive with panache. The Rowley Inn has been long standing next to a Christmas Story House and Museum, so it has its fair share of foot traffic for being tucked away as it is. The food is epically phenomenal, with dishes native to cleveland that can only be found here due to other closers since 2020. Don't forget to pair it with a locally brewed cold draught.Parking: Parking is along the street as it's tucked away in a neighborhood.Wheelchair accessibility: There is no wheel chair accessibility“
“My friends and I have been on a year-long smash burger tour of Northern Ohio, and doinks burger joint is hands down my personal favorite. The og is my go-to, but I'm more of a traditional burger guy. I've tried all of them, and they are all fantastic, but nothing to me beats the og with a side of pickle salad. Even though it's almost an hour from my house, I stop in at least twice a month.“
“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!“
“Great food, friendly bartenders and the beautiful fireplace naturally becomes a great place to chat while you enjoy a terrific drink. Bartenders can make anything!! I was totally impressed by their knowledge and they provided great drink recommendations to a few guests in my party and their recommendations were very appealing to the eyes! Pretty drinks that were delicious were very appreciated by all of my female friends. Great vibes. Chill spot. I recommend.“
“This was my first visit to Kessler's, and surely won't be my last! The menu is limited, but the food was incredible. I had the Patty Melt special and it was exceptional.The service was excellent and the prices were very reasonable.The two man band was a nice addition. Great Music!“
“As much as I like going out to new, hyped hotspots, I also love cozy, relaxed & casual dive bar vibes. Hoopples definitely hits the mark. Warm, friendly atmosphere, personable staff, solid drink selection, a simple menu with classic feel-good comfort food, darts & machine bowling, and local decor honoring Cleveland sports, motorcycle culture, and other local interests. Street parking is available. The establishment is also much bigger inside than it looks from the outside, with a good amount of seating inside and out on the patio. Hoopples has a mix of the after-work crowd winding down after a long day, locals having a good time to eat, drink, enjoy each other's company, and watch a sports game. I came on a weekday night, and while it was buzzing with energy, it wasn't too crowded, which was nice. Overall, if you're looking to have a casual, super laidback hangout spot, I would definitely recommend Hoopples!“
“Delicious spot -- the Polish Girl sandwich was SO good -- gigantic. The fried potatoes were amazing. My son thought the fatty brisket was too rich for him, so maybe kids would do better with lean. My other son devoured his ribs. I enjoyed the baked beans too. Great service - very fun place. Highly recommend.“
“So... THIS is where I'll be getting my oxtails when I'm too lazy to make them! They were excellent. I got the oxtail dinner, a beef patty, and a side of plantains. The portions were impressive, and everything was seasoned perfectly. The beef patty was basically the same beef patty you'd get everywhere else, but that's okay because they're always good. But, back to the oxtails... soooooo tender and meaty with the perfect amount of gravy! I was happy enough to have a great, well-made meal, but the spinners knocked me off my feet! I've had Jamaican oxtails from here to California, but no one's ever added spinners to my meal! If you don't know, they're yummy, dense, cylindrical dumplings. They made me SO happy! She's putting out quality food with such love and care. These are the types of chefs and restaurants that we need to support.“
“Recently moved to this side of town and it was late and wanted some food. Ordered a Philly and 10 wings. Wings were excellent perfect cook time. I brought it home and didn’t eat the Philly right away when I did the bread wasn’t soggy at all meat was seasoned, had no complaints. Will definitely be getting food from here again.“
“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...“
“I really don't want to leave a five star review for Skinnys, why you ask, because I don't want everyone else coming in to ruin what is likely one of the best places to get a frosty mug and a decent burger with great people. so yeah don't come here. I don't want you to ruin a good thing! lol“
“My twin planned our 50th birthday gathering here. Everything about it was above 5 ⭐️ The food was consumed so quickly because it was soooo good!! ? Promise whenever I’m in Cleveland I need to stop and eat. The music, the bar ladies/ servers are the absolute BEST. You can enjoy the DJ and still have a conversation with friends or your date!!! Real good grown vibes! We stayed after to watch the game because the Vibe was everything and the tvs were easy to see everywhere!!!“
“I could not recommend a better place for real people real good food real good times and the something about it that can't quite be in words where if you find yourself there Pat will make you feel like family. I had to get married there so I did.“
“One of a few places I don’t mind spending hundreds on dinner! Very fancy & professional the pasta is out of this world and so are the appetizers. Our waiter was very kind helped us decide what to get! His recommendation we’re on point. I enjoyed this place very much. Will definitely be back soon.“
“Ordered the “big guy”. They are known for 4th best burger in town. Well…. I’m thinking how, the 1/3 patty was not seasoned, special sauce was not as tangy and left the burger pretty plain.Thumbs up on the fresh cut fries, add malt vinegar and they pop with flavor. Would recommend as they are a dive in bar and have a great selection of spirits.“
“Phenomenal fish fry...and don't need to experience it just during Lent! The grouper sandwich and batter dipped filet is available all the time. And with tater tots and slaw, it doesn't get much better! Hoppin' busy Friday night.“
“A great little bar, not a dive at all, with pretty damn good food.Has a really nice bar/patio setup, with an enclosure for the winter that is heated.Karaoke on Thursdays, seasonal lent specials on weds/fridays, and fall clam bakes.John, the owner is a laid back, nice guy, the bartenders are all attentive and polite. A big shout out to Erika and Tina- two phenomenal bartenders.The crowd is very blue collar, the atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable. Pretty much anyone will talk about anything.Overall, this is pretty much the ideal bar- whether you’re just looking for a bite to eat, a beer to sip or wanna blow off steam and have a session.Don’t act the fool, and you’ll have a great time!“
“Good vibes speak for itself. The drinks are great, the music , overall environment is a vibe. Adults, no kids, close to freeway .. my favorite is catfish nuggets.. service is bomb. Ask foe Ms Dee. Hostess with the most.. lights in your drinks with a “
“I called to place an order, and you have to pay then. I was given an estimated time for pickup. It was a few minutes later, which was fine considering they'd the game on. The food was hot and fresh. The fish was the best I've had in Cleveland for awhile.Parking: They have a parking lot and are located on the corner with a lot of street parking available.“
“The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly and welcoming. There are plenty of screens, so no matter the seat you choose, you'll have a nice view.The food was fresh, cooked to order, and well prepared.The Buffalo Quesadilla was delicious. It was one of the best and most well priced that I've had in a long time.The bone-in wings with the Caribbean Garlic dry rub was fantastic. I'm usually not a huge fan of a dry rub, but on the strength of this rub alone, I'll be back a lot sooner than anticipated. Great job!“
“Characters has been around for a long time and for good reason! It is solid American bar food at an exceptional price point. On Wednesdays they have a 6 oz sirloin steak for $5.99! If that isn't motivation enough to get you down there, let me tell you about their wings. They are pretty damn good! The wing night isn't as good of a deal as it once was. I believe they are $1 a wing.“
“Bar 23 is a nice place with friendly people. The owner had recently a lot of work into it with a full kitchen, and nice bathrooms. The kitchen is not ready yet, and I can't wait until it is. I'm sure the menu will be good, and prepared well.“
“Jukebox is HANDS DOWN the absolute best bar in Cleveland. I’m here a couple times of week and the food is delectable and the drinks are spectacular. However, what separates jukebox from all other bars is their dedication to hospitality. Everyone who works there is a joy and a pleasure to be around. Love you guys < 3“
“Solid place for beer and cider, friendly and quick staff also. Limited seating but if you find a spot it's a great place to watch the Browns game! Tons of TVs and not to rowdy. The food here is typical American and good for beer. Parking is tricky because you have to pay unless you find free street parking.“
“Best spot in Cleveland, hands down.My friends and I were in town to visit Ray's Bike Park and we stayed in Ohio City. B and G Tavern became our "go to" for every night after riding. Relaxed place with good choices in music and plenty of pool tables! The owners are amazing and super friendly! They get into the party spirit all while maintaining professional control over their establishment. Cheap drinks, good vibes, and the best citrus pepper wings I've ever had!Can't wait to visit again in February of 2024!“
“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 live a quarter mile down the street. I have not tried this place since they opened until tonight. I know what I've been missing now! I got the wings and they were phenomenal. The owner is a great lady and they had an awesome jam band in there tonight that was great. Will be back for sure.“
“Got to send a shout out to Gen's 176 and their food! The food execution is surprisingly exceptional. Good ole home cooking. Much is made from scratch. Great hand-pressed burgers and daily specials! Their homemade perogies might be the best in town which is saying something in Cleveland!“
“I love this place. I love this place so much. The food is homemade, and tastes every bit like you had grandma at home making it for you while Columbo plays in the living room. The drinks are good. Bartenders and staff are always friendly. They have pool, which is a huge huge huge thing for me. I'm not the best, but I love to play some pool and listen to the Jukebox. It's truly a nice little gem!Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“This has turned into My new Wednesday night spot! I normally don’t come out on weekdays, but MIA, Q & Joey are Great Bartenders! Very Personable, Friendly and make You feel at Home! Surprisingly the Food is Good, they have a Great Menu, and the Bonus is every time I there, Mia is cleaning everywhere like She lives there! The place is nice, I highly recommend!“
“My wife and I were pleasantly surprised by the warmth and friendliness of this local bar and grill. We stopped in midday for a quick bite and Maria the hostess, bartender, waitress, chief cook and bottle washer, welcomed us like long lost family. My wife and I shared a fish dinner which was served hot right from the fryer and the French fries were hand cut. The menu is limited, but Maria ran through their daily specials for the week and shared that she prepared a lot of the items from scratch. We were even gifted a large cabbage from regular customer who brought it in to see if it might be needed on the grill for St. Patty’s Day. We will be back to try out the specials.“
“Every single time I come in here I have an awesome time. The food is usually amazing. Especially their pizza. You can never go wrong with their fresh cut fries either!! My bartender tonight was Carrie and she was a delight. She was helpful, delivered fast service, and was very attentive. 10/10 thank you pitstop for another great night!“
“It was a nice atmosphere. DJ on Friday Night did a great job with music selection- a variety of all genres! The wings and fries weren't that great- they smelled like old fish oil and the worker that took my order wasn't the friendliest!“
“First things first, the environment here is amazing. The owner is super kind, and down to earth. This is definitely a place worth stopping by. Especially out in Bedford, are used to work for a car dealership out there, and more often than not, you get very familiar with the local cuisine. I was sad to see that I did not get to discover this absolute gem of a location while I still worked out there on a daily basis.Highly recommend you check it out !Parking: There’s more than enough room for parking“
“I went in Dec 13th, on a Wednesday, the wings were amazing, the sauce was soooo good! went in again on the 27th the sauce for the same wings I got before was totally different. I’m not sure I’ll go back again unless I know the sauce will be consistent!“
“Mike T runs a Fantastic Tavern. Great Food, Great Staff, Great Bands. My wife had a Patty Melt last night she said it was the Best she's had in a very long time and that is a go to for her!!! Love this place. An Absolute Gem of Old Brooklyn!!!“
“I ordered a $12 corn beef I asked for the bread to be toasted. She tried to charge me more because she said that's a ruben just for you to toast the bread OK. I went inside I ordered a fry it was a handful of fries for $3. Tell me why I get to my car to eat my sandwich and my sandwich is cold. The cheese was not melted and the meat was room temp.And they were rude. I am never going back.“
“We went to The Haunted House Restaurant and found this place right around the corner. The bartender Melissa was amazing and super friendly. She made us feel welcome and was an absolute blast. Good place to stop in and have a drink at a local place.“
