26 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 ??“

“Great spot! great owners. shows always sound good here and sound guys and bartenders take pride in the job they are doing and care about patrons.“

“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!“

“I really enjoyed this bar. It was a great place to have a couple of beers during happy hour for quite a cheap price.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating also. They gave me a few good recommendations on good food in the area.

As for the atmosphere, it was pretty lively with a good mix of people. The building seems a little old so the bar kind of has a dive feel to it. I mean that in a good way though. There is also some cool decor and a room with a pool table. There is also a shuffleboard table.

Overall, this place was a good place for me to get some cheap brews and wind down during happy hour.“

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

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

“Maybe I'm biased because I've never seen them lose here, but, for me, there's no better place in Lakewood to watch a Browns game. With the potluck dishes it's like family. Fuggetaboutit!
Patio is second to none also.“

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

“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.“

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

“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!“

“Wanted to find some new places for food while kid free and stumbled across this place after seeing a steak photo posted today so I came out. Amanda and Chef Christian were friendly and super nice. The food was great. The wings were perfect and the fried shrooms were lightly battered and seasoned well. The finale, steak dinner for $13 was out of this world and ridiculously underpriced! Hand cut fries well done, green beans grilled perfectly and the steak was well seasoned and cooked as ordered. This is my new favorite place.“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 “

“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.“

“Bottlenose brewing is a nifty bar in lakewood. What sets this one apart is the delightful fenced-in outdoor dining area. It is also one of the few restaurants in the area with dedicated parking, which I didn't know when I went there and ended up spending 10 minutes trying to find street parking.“

“We went for dinner is everything was great! My favorite part was the drinks. The blueberry tasted very fresh. The dinner met expectations. We tried the key lime cheesecake for dessert and it was just alright. Tasted like one you can get at the store.. Probably would pass on dessert. But we had a great time and would come again.“

“I've had wings all over Ohio. These are up there with the best I've ever had. Will certainly be back! I've driven past so many times but decided to try them in a whim, wow am I glad I did. Buffaque is a mix of their house buffalo and bbq sauce. Had more heat than I expected, which I loved. Can't wait to come back! Booths FTW!“

“This was, by far, one of the best experiences ever! The food, the atmosphere, and the service were comparable to none!“
