“I love this location! My food is always hot and fresh, I'm seated quickly, everything is cleaned to perfection, and the staff are very attentive and friendly. I always ask for extra buffalo rub on my traditional wings and they come out great everytime. Nice and spicy just like I enjoy them.“

“Amazing food and customer service! He does gyros right.“

“Place is fun, great food and great prices. We love it!!!!!“

“We had a great time, good service and good food! Our kids didn't like the chicken nuggets bc they were sweet but their kids and goofy 😹 the cocktails were great! Fun atmosphere. Also family friendly. I was pleasantly surprised to see a diaper change area that had wipes and diapers. There were also menstrual products. It was such a thoughtful touch!“

“What a great place! My wife's been here several times before but this was my first chance to join her. I love the space and the concept, and the owner was super friendly and answered my many questions about the business and the beer.
One thing that pleasantly surprised me was that there were several beers that I would have never ordered normally, but since it was by the ounce I was able to do a lot of sampling and found that I enjoyed a couple more than I would have guessed. Great place to expand your beer palate!“

“Ate at The Third Place while visiting my mom during Thanksgiving. Had the Sunday special, the Meatball Casserole. It was delicious with lots of cheese and sauce to dip the garlic bread in. Also had a side salad. I recommend spending the extra $2.50 and getting the salad topped with fresh mozzarella. Yum! I wish I remembered the servers name. It began with a J. She did a good job and was friendly.“

“Burger, fish sandwich, salad, broccolini, and tots all shared with my wife tonight while seated at the bar. Special shout out to our barman Ray, who we're getting to know here. He's as affable and attentive as any in Rocky River. Cheers!“

“Just moved to the area. Today was my 2nd time there. Food is good and prices are very reasonable. Bartender Lee answered all my questions and was friendly. Portions are good (pretzel bites portion could have been a meal by itself. Highly recommend.“

“I had a wonderful time!! Our waitress Codi was truly a amazing person! She made me feel very comfortable and welcomed! The overall experience was friendly!! She was very attentive, checked on us at right times and made me (and my new husband) at home!!! Thank you!!“

“The food was good but our drinks took longer to get than our food. Cool“

“Hands down our favorite place while visiting this area . My husband said it was so good he’d drive the 6 hours just to eat here again. I asked for something prepared a little differently due to an illness and the chef came out to chat with us to make sure! The way he prepared it was perfect! Everyone loved the meals and left overs!“

“I was invited to a music gig on a Sunday several weeks ago and have stopped several times since. It's a great place and bike riding distance from my home. Each time I've met new friends and owner and bar are authentice and unique! The music presented is such a gift.“

“Good food great service. Friendly Had rough day and felt at home“

“MBAG (Mike's Bar and Grill) is a great spot for some good drinks and food. It can be pretty busy inside depending on when you get there. Also, be aware that the owner is trying to correct the kitchen time on Google, but the kitchen closes at 9p, not 10p throughout the whole week! I usually get the chicken parm sandwich (which is stellar!) but tried the august porkbelly blt taco special. It was honesty very underwhelming. I subbed regular mayo for the Sriracha, but the real issue was the micro sliver of meat. I could barely taste. And I'm saying it was like a quarter piece of bacon but pork belly instead. Anyways, the other food at the table was delicious (except the fresh cut fries were a tad undercooked). Only other thing to mention is that the patio is lovely! But, if you get seated at a high top under the umbrellas, and it gets dark, there are no lights. And it's pretty dark, to the point where it's hard to see your meal. Service was very good, very friendly! Great place and definitely frequent a couple times a month.“

“Great place with good food.“

“12/30/24 ask for Joey,, ribs available and done right this time appetizers hot and fresh. Thankful this location us open real late unlike others stuck in covid times.. Third visit for the ribs ran out again. Spoke to the manager offered free ribs next Sunday and pork chop dinner on the house. Hopefully they will never run out again.“

“been coming here since I turned 21 (almost 23) by far the best prices, best service, amazing pizza and hot dogs, great pool tables, touch tunes, and vape vending machine. Don’t get me started on the owner, Krystie, she has done wonders for this place! She’s so efficient and personal, she makes every experience the best, and has some of the best bar tenders! Trivia Thursdays is always a good time with flash! Also the Lemon Drops can’t be beat!!! Let me add the bathroom is always clean with bbw soap🤩!!!!!“

“I got a Philly Cheesesteak. As you can see, it looked delicious and fortunately it tasted just as good! The atmosphere was decent, and the food was great. At an affordable price as well! I'll definitely be stopping back by for some good food and a nice time. The draft beer went down great according to my buddy. I don't drink.“

“Your average local sports bar/pub with like minded food. The food was good, but we waited forever to get it so we got cold grub. Sat outside because it was a nice night, but the service was non existent, and unfortunately there were two guys smoking cigars near us that nobody seemed to want to do anything about, lol...“

“good food and Great Service“

“Thank you again for everything you did for us, for my dad’s service! You guys rock! We will see you shortly!“

“The food is fantastic and the service is great 😊“

“got the 8oz ribeye, medium rare. terrible. not possible to make it medium rare when it was thinner than my plate. wish I could add the photo I shared to my friends.“

“Great food, great service“

“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!“

“Friendly staff- extremely lovely people work there. Been attending this pub on and off for many years whenever I'm in town and I am never disappointed. Nice, low-key, laid-back atmosphere (in a GOOD way), digital jukebox (us lazy tipsy people can play songs right from our phones if we so wish- plus, who carries cash anymore?), decent variety of beers on tap and did I say the staff rules? They're great. It's my go-to spot whenever I'm in town.“

“This is one of my favorite local spots! Great bartenders, great food, but most of all the best manager around!! Go there and you won’t be disappointed and ask for Ruairi“

“While visiting from Dayton, we needed a place to watch a Bengals' game so we took a chance. We made a great decision!! The 3 choice appetizer, boneless hot garlic wings, chili, and staff service was all better than expected. If we are ever in Strongsville again, we'll definitely be heading to Johnny J's!!!“

“Back, better than ever!!! New floor, new paint..looks great �“

“Love this place and everyone in it! 🙂“

“Walked in. Ordered a shot and was wrongly blamed for bad reviews online and told I wasn't welcome there. So, here's my first review: great food. Excellent really. Wings are to die for! Otherwise, it's okay. Would appreciate not being blamed for whatever issues they're having. Seems a little overly obsessive and weird, especially considering I rarely come here. Want some wings? Hit 'em up! I look forward to being blamed for whatever customer service issues they're having in the future! It takes a lot to piss off a pothead, but you guys made an enemy for sure. Please ignore the personal compliments to the Chef that I've had in person as well as copious, authentic niceties and encouraging conversations given to the bartenders and staff over the past year. I just wanted some sweet chili wings and a shot, but you guys are a little weirdly, obsessive and frankly it's offensive. Don't forget to print this review off as well and past it around to the staff as you did previously instead of just asking me and giving me the benefit of the doubt!“

“The ball boy Owen Reese was a delight to me must see him again ;)“

“The patio is pet friendly and great food. The staff is always kind.“

“Awesome food and awesome service“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ drinks, food and vibes“

“Ryan is AMAZING! he makes the best drinks and is always here and always working so hard. I'm always so happy when he's our bartender :)He works bar and kitchen which is super impressive. Get his food and drinks. You won't be “

“HUGE thank you to Miranda and the staff at Slim & Chubby’s for having my family this past Saturday night!! Our bartender Miranda was super attentive and kind to us all night and helped make the night so special. We have planned 2 parties here in the last few years and both have been huge successes. Highly recommend Slim & Chubby’s for large events or a casual night out!! Thank you for everything!!“

“Great food and drinks! And everyone is very friendly!“

“All you can eat fries with your meal the first order was hot and fresh.
The second order took forever to arrive at our table and when they did finally arrive they were cold as ice.
This could be because our server was distracted constantly by talking to her coworkers they were all just standing around either talking amongst themselves or playing on their cellphones.“

“Food was delicious and they're super attentive. My entire family had a lunch buffet set up for after a funeral. At least 150 people were accommodated and well looked after. Their outside patio and half out bar were both so nice and spacious as well. Will definitely be coming back on some date nights!“

“Love this place. Def recommend going here for a quick bite or for the energy. Owners are amazing as well as the entire staff ! 🙂“

“If only I live closer when I come in the Cleveland next time, I’ll plan on stopping by. I’ve heard nothing but good things about this place. It’s really awesome.“

“Quiet little suburb dive bar thats been around for years and definitely shows. Large beverage selection with friendly bartenders and staff. Summertime this place really picks up with its sand volleyball courts and outside bar/patio. Great spot for fundraisers or events due to it large dining space and stage area. Killer Karaoke crowd on the weekends shows off some serious local talent. Stop by and enjoy a cold one.

Vegetarian options: Two words: French Fries

Parking: Plenty of parking especially after 6pm

Kid-friendliness: Kids can play on volleyball court and eat chicken tendies.

Wheelchair accessibility: First floor joint with several entrances/exits. No stairs in sight.“

“August 22nd stopped for lunch with a friend I hadn't seen since covid and was treated very rudely by the bartender who was not at all busy. This is the first time I have ever felt this way in here. Most of the bartenders are very friendly“

“Great“

“Allie is the best server you could ask for, makes the experience top-notch!“

“The atmosphere is great, the selection is great and so was everyone there. The brisket, ribs, the pulled pork and the smoked turkey were all delicious. The brisket nachos were awesome as well. Definitely looking forward to going back.“

“Amazing as always! 🖤 Thank you for keeping Divots - Divots!“

“Good mix of patrons and the atmosphere is great.“

“I really enjoyed having lunch. The food was delicious and hot. The service was great, not to mention the holiday cheer and the feeling of Christmas! The holiday cocktails were great especially the BG Punch and the sugar cookie were especially tasty.“
