“I’ve been coming to Nostalgia been since the beginning. The owner is consistently thinking of new events, parties, food, and drink items- you can tell a lot of thought and passion goes into it. Food is delicious (chicken quesadilla, burger, tacos), lots of delicious fun drinks (too many to list), tons of games to play. Staff is friendly and the people are the best. There’s a reason I keep coming back.“

“Wow the seafood lasagna was amazing, I hope it is on the regular menu soon !!!“

“We had such a great time there!!! Like any local "dive bar" it always comes down to the service and the people that are there. It's a friendly neighborhood pub with a several great bartenders !! It was exceptionally clean and it was poorly lit. The people there treated us well and I will go back!!“

“Wandered in with some friends for a quick drink and was pretty blown away by the live band they had playing AND the great barmaids and service! We wound up staying way longer than the 15 mins we intended to because "Scatterbraind" kept playing songs we couldn't walk out on, and the bartenders made us feel right at home! Prices were great. Food was fantastic, (we didn't plan on eating there!) , and the music was impeccable! Everything from Pink Floyd to the Grateful Dead to Sublime, Tool, and lots of new stuff we've never heard that we hope to hear again!! We will definitely be back and we will be on the look out for "Scatterbraind" to be performing in the future!! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆ across the board!! What a good time!“

“My family was visiting and we ate dinner and stayed for the live music. The food was fantastic! We had “The Dude Burger, Tortellini, pulled Pork Sandwish, Steak, and Potato skins! All very very Tasty! The prices were more than fair! We had a great time! We will be back next time we are in town! Service was prompt and polite! A lot of fun!“

“was there tonight for dinner we had horrible service first we had to ask for our server to come take our order. second person ordered an iced tea she put lemon which he could not have due to cancer.she pulled the lemon off the glass then we told her he needed a fresh glass her facial expression said it all .I asked for a water 3 times she finally brought it the whole glass went on the table and me and my phone at this point it was clear she did not want to wait on us so someone else brought out our food she did Apologize but it was to the point where it was so clear that for some reason she did not want to wait on us and everything we asked for we seem to be bothering her I finally spoke up she did not charge us for a food which she did not have to do but it was a very unpleasant dinner and we were there for someone's birthday“

“went there today for the first time and took my 6-year-old daughter she had an order a fries and a lot of ketchup. I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger with a rosemary aioli and truffle fries and that was amazing my burger was cooked to my liking that I requested and my husband got the Philly steak with normal fries and he loved that love this for my first try and I will be coming back I definitely love how they have the big chess board outside and they also have a deck of cards on the table and it was fun to teach my daughter how to play Go fish with a normal deck instead of a kid deck.. she had a lot of fun and occupied her time while they were cooking our food I give a four and a half out of five definitely coming back soon“

“Our first time here, we weren't sure what to expect. Local bar atmosphere but everyone was so friendly, even the other patrons. My Porch burger was excellent and prices very reasonable. Bonus, they are dog friendly! We'll be back.“

“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 love coming here, I’m not a big drinker but the margaritas are huge and the food is amazing. I’m always full when I leave and have a second meal. It’s a Lot of food for the price! Well worth it! I definitely recommend trying this place!“
