23 Best Bars in Lakewood

“My favorite place in Cleveland. 😍. Plus they have my favorite burger and fries with roasted garlic 🤤🤤🤤“

“I tried this place for the first time and EVERYTHING was amazing!!! The decor when you walk in. I came on a Thursday and they have karaoke night ! I thought that was cool and I didn’t know this initially. I came for the restaurant/rooftop. We went upstairs and they had a good playlist of songs , the food was amazing !!!! Absolutely delicious. I order the fire roasted shrimp as appetizer and it was so good when the veggies !! Although it said fire it wasn’t hot at all. It was Made just right . I ordered the chicken and waffles as my entree . Chicken was cooked perfect and the hot honey syrup was good as well . We also order the BBW wings and fries which were good too. I tried the green apple slushy mixed with the peach one and added my choice of liquor ! Delicious!!! Our sever Tone was great ! I will definitely be back. It’s a LBGTQ restaurant and they have drag brunch on Sundays ! I’ll be going to check it out . I’ve always wanted to go to one and now I do ??“

“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!“

“Great times here at Five O'clock Lounge in Lakewood OH. This is my 5th time performing here and every time goes well. Debbie always steps up to the plate helping build and solidify the local punk rock scene in Cleveland OH. This is a flyer for what's going on tonight!“

“My corner bar where I have a beer with my friends.“

“I love it here. The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly.“

“keeping all of you in my prayers. I can't wait to come and chill with some pretzel shots!“

“Great bourbon and beer selection. Max was a great bartender! Thanks for a great time!“

“Great prices. Simple bar with a touch tunes jukebox. Small patio out back. Maybe not the safest place- twice when we came in there was a fight going on, once a physical fight. We saw the same people almost every time. The bartender is a nice guy. This place is right next to my old boyfriends apartment so we went down for late night drinks a lot and half the time it was closed at midnight. Despite its flaws, it was a nice place for me and my boyfriend to sip, talk and not spend a lot. We were always treated nicely by the bartender as well.“

“This is a great place to catch a show! Intimate venue and the acoustics were great! I definitely would see another concert there!“

“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!“

“As a career cook....i ordered a spec Cubano tonight while visiting. Not only are good Cubanos rare in this area....I had to change my drawers halfway through eating this. The food is the ONLY thing that exceeds the bar service here.....10/10“

“Great little bar here. Friends with the owner so I’m here pretty often haha. Drinks are made well and at a reasonable price. Only wish I have is that there were food here. Watching Browns games are fun here too. The owner, Greg, is a wonderful person. I recommend coming here

Parking: Free street parking on the weekends and past 5 PM, but otherwise you may struggle to find a spot“

“Ya know, the place is great fun. The owner (Rick) is a really great guy. People are fun and I'd rate the experience higher if it weren't for the idiot "manager" (Brandon). This fool discourages and turns away people because he is a racist. Yup! Idiots are still out there. Unfortunately, they let this TOTAL looser run the place because he claims to have info on people in high places. He makes the stuff up! Hand to God's, it is total truth. Have a couple cocktails with friends, when you are on your way out he will call the Lakewood police on you. Instantly ruining your life!!! I KNOW!!! Who pulls that kind of sick move?!?! BRANDON at Corky's on Detroit!!! I know it's the absolute truth! He did it to my best friend.“

“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 “

“Everything is a highlight. The Hot Carls . The Big Robs. The specials. Rip.“

“We are from Jersey and came in to just have a beer. So glad we stayed for the food! The wings are amazing, chopped cheese sandwich was outstanding. What a great flavor on the fries. I loved my Buffalo bowl. The service was outstanding!!! I highly recommend!“

“Pizza was delicious!! Crust was amazing, server was nice and attentive. Only issue is they didn’t clean the tables as they should. Mice poop on all of them, I understand mice are outside, however all tables should be cleaned before customers sit.“

“First time having real Indian food and I was blown away. The hot had flavor, not just heat. So many sauces and chutneys, they even have an all you can eat lunch buffet daily that I’m so coming back for. Small restaurant but what charm the atmosphere had. 18 years in business and I can see why.“

“The Rush is sort of the quintessential fun and welcoming neighborhood bar/restaurant. It's a good place for an affordable meal and some drinks during game, a casual meet up, or a dinner before a show.You can choose bar or booth seating on the bar side or the restaurant side which has larger booths and is separated from the bar by a dividing wall. The staff is always very friendly, fast, and helpful. There are TVs on both sides usually tuned to the Cavs, Guardians, or Browns games depending on the season. The fish fry and potato pancakes are excellent and the soups and chili are on point. Fried items will sometimes take a while during peak times though, so if you plan on seeing a show at the Beck Center make sure you arrive well before your showtime.

The bar side atmosphere is very casual and relaxed, the drinks are good, and the bartenders are attentive and friendly. There's a mix of domestic and smaller independent breweries on tap usually including a cider, which I like and the environment is just generally welcoming. The booths and taps are always very clean, and while the decor is absolutely the most generic thing you have ever imagined, it is well kept. Now while some more cultured people like to have drinks in a more modern bar, underneath some strange hanging light that looks like a nipple, standing next to a life size plastic penguin that's been spray painted gold, I actually appreciate the classic bar/diner environment and that's why the Rush Inn is my local go to bar.“

“We ALWAYS HAVE A GREAT TIME @ The Christmas Corner Bar!! Loved the Raspberry Rudolph’s!“

“Always a great time! Awesome atmosphere and extensive selection of beers, the variety of food trucks is certainly enticing. Something for every palate, 😋“

“Great drinks, friendly knowledgeable staff and an amazing music venue all in one. I’ve see Rock shows. EDM shows and cover shows … once I saw midget wrestling.(no judging until to see it). Every one was a treat. Not to mention the ppv fights. You can’t go wrong here on a weekend night at the tap house unless you don’t go. — Chris.“
