“1st time going in there since the remodel and wow! Its a whole new place except for the signage outside. It was $8 burger and fry night. I had the smash burger and all burgers are half pounders. The fries were great! I would add 1 extra bartender though a full bar / house 1 person took time to get food or even a drink other then that really impressed.“

“great service and food...“

“Great location, food, drinks and fun times!!“

“Friendly people, great music and Tacos to die for. Worth the drive from Illinois.“

“Thank you for being my favorite bar in ohio I discovered on my own randomly over a year ago!💜 You guys always do a good job with trivia & music bingo & the themed DJ party things. Most trivias are things I am interested in such as star wars,pokemon,disney and a lot more. Most music bingos has my favorite genres like rock, pop,alternative and more. I enjoy the shirley temples & pretzel bites very much. The servers are always sweethearts in my eyes. I am thankful for them & the good cooks there. I am very happy to run into this place. I literally walked in a random day completely down about my life trying to open myself up again slowly & this place literally adds sunshine in my life. It has made my life a lot better. It has a lot of games I enjoy so much. I love sharing this place to everyone I know and it's my go to place that I love to reccomend by word all connections to check it out. :)“

“GREAT FOOD, GREAT SERVICE WEE ORDER LUNCH FROM THEEM, I EAAT DINNER AT TIMES, ALWAYS GREAT“

“Where do I start ? Came for dinner Wednesday night and then came for dinner Thursday again. That should say something . I’m beyond impressed by the Staff and the establishment, it beyond exceeded my expectations. We have a lot of fine dining in the Poconos region with some higher end restaurants and this place exceeded them. The quality of the food is superior. Take a look at some of the pics of the food we ordered. Ended up meeting Sean the head chef and impressed how he runs his kitchen , everything goes with the flow . Make sure you make a reservation :) we ended up not making one and we got seated over looking the kitchen and it was the best place. You see all the action. Can’t wait to come back from Poconos.

“One of the only true, original dive bars left in Mentor. Stopped in yesterday for the first time in over 25 years and I swear the place hasn't changed. Good cheeseburger still tops the menu. Don't go here if you're looking for a salad!“

“I was amazed at the beautiful decor. We were warmly greeted right away and seated. The service was great. Our waiter was attentive and helpful. I ordered Coctel De Camaron Y Pulpo. It was a tower of food. Shrimp, octopus, onions, zucchini and avocados. It is a cold dish and I enjoyed it completely. I will be returning to try other items from the menu.“

“A small quiet place with some of the best food you’ll ever have. I absolutely love their hamburgers and fries which are freshly cooked not frozen! The lady with the long dark hair that works there is incredible and always makes you feel special. Also their drink and food prices are very reasonable making this bar/restaurant one of the most affordable in town.“

“I had their burger today. it was charred and seasoned great. service was great and friendly people. I will be back soon.“

“Nice little country bar. Very friendly bar staff. Good ol boy crowd. Country music. Somoking patio. Free pool on Sundays. Everything you want from the type of bar it is. Stopped on my way to my cousin's in Rock Creek, from mentor where I live. Will make pulling my pickup in there for a couple Jack and cokes a recurring habit on those trips going forward. Oh, and the prices were from 1998. 4 dollar , tumbler sized glasses of Jack and coke.“

“Thank you so much to Greg & staff for a wonderful Celebration of Life Party for my Mother in law. Staff was friendly & fast & the food was wonderful! I would definitely recommend having a party again at The Stadium!“

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Vinny’s Catering for our wedding! From start to finish, everything was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious, fresh, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection especially considering they were preparing food for such a large wedding! We had chicken piccata, chicken parmesan, pasta with Vinny’s sauce, eggplant parmesan, salad, and rolls, and every single dish was fantastic. Everything was cooked perfectly, full of flavor, and served just right. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious the food was! The team at Vinny’s was also incredibly professional, friendly, and accommodating. They made sure everything was taken care of and helped make our wedding day so much easier and stress-free. You can truly tell that they care about the food they serve and the experience they provide. We are so grateful to Vinny’s for helping make our wedding day so special. The food, service, and overall experience exceeded our expectations! We would recommend Vinny’s Catering 1,000 times over!“

“First time here, came for dinner with my husband. We were very impressed by the service and quality of the food. I’m picky and I loved our meal. Everything was clean and our food came out fast.“

“I love this place. The staff is what makes me come here frequently. They are amazing, friendly, and they go above and beyond every single service. Food is made with the utmost love and the drinks are served to satisfy with every sip. RWB is my go to. You all make my day every time I visit. I appreciate all your hard work and dedication to every service. Thank you all!!! We’ll see you again soon!!!“

“I stop in from time to time since the first time I went in and got a Burger. It was great! Nice place to take whomever you love or respect, without worry of any disappointment in food, service or atmosphere. The place brings together the rural and industrial folks for a good hot meal, cold drinks and a welcome feel that you've met others you'd think were your neighbors. Best advice is to, stop in yourself and pick from a good menu anything you like. It's all good! I even got a vegetarian burger there yesterday for my Uncle who said, "that is the best I've ever had!" Despite not getting one, that told me there is something there for everyone. Try it, you'll like it!“

“awesome time last night. sitting and dining on the patio. London - outstanding, professional server.“

“Great atmosphere, amazing drink selections, food was good and our waitress Gabby was awesome!“

“Spats is my kinda place. The first time I visited Spats, I saw a neon beer sign in the window and figured I’d grab a beer while I was waiting for my gf to finish her shopping. I was instantly met with the dive-bar/hole in the wall vibe. Spats did not disappoint! If that’s not what you’re looking for, you might try the dining area instead of the bar area, which has at least 10 TVs, so I assume it’s also a nice sports bar.

So I told my gf that we should come back sometime when we want to hang out. We did! There aren’t many vegetarian options, but you can get typical bar food, plus an extensive lunch/dinner menu. I tried the fried mushrooms. They were delicious! I see why some ppl don’t like the fries, but they were perfect for me. They were not greasy or cooked in recycled oil like some idiots claimed in their reviews. But yes, they’re typical of real potato fries: soft and limp, just the way I like them. But they were also a little bland. Nothing a little salt couldn’t fix. I also had the fried shrimp, which was fine. Cole slaw was OK. My gf liked her chicken salad. Portions are HUGE. I’ll be back to try other items on the menu. I’m giving it 5 stars to offset the idiots who gave it one. But overall, it’s probably 4.5 stars.“

“Thank you for the work you put into this patio and the atmosphere it creates! Love your food, service, bands! Delightful evening with friends, food, & music !“
