50 Best Pubs near Rocky River

“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.“

“Perfect place for Christmas dates or family or any date. 100% so glad we just happened to walk in after the toy store. Beautiful everything and the food is good!!!!!

Kid-friendliness: they have crayons and kids menu.its huge.“

“Shauna is the best bartender and makes a killer Bloody Mary“

“Dishonest bartender by the name of Jessica who always work Sundays. Caused me to be not allowed in your establishment. I would have witnessed her drink behind the bar with her two friends at the very end, please don't dispute your bill!! in this neighborhood for 30 years and this owner tries to run me out. European descent, maybe she should remember why she came to this country for freedom and Free Speech!!“

“Great neighborhood bar. Grew up in this area feel safe. Great place to meet old friends n make new. Love that the owners participate in fun activities n karaoke nights. Fun place to watch football n have special occasions at. Stop in and see for yourself.“

“They have Sunny D, that and a shot of vodka, double D.
Cheap, close, and the breaded/deep fried ravioli is great.
The Sweet Chili sauce comes out of a bottle, so do half of mine.
Cheap, neighborhood bar.
God I love Lakewood.“

“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.“

“The DJ with the mashups! I could NOT stop dancing! So much fun!“

“Absolutely love there food 🥘“

“Great food, great service“

“I LOVE this pub. Perfect atmosphere, super friendly staff AND patrons. The draft is YUMMY 😋 A pub lover’s dream!! And the owners are pretty darn cool too😎♥️😘“

“Best food! Great food, great pizza, chicken parmesan dinner, c’mon!“

“Great place to be!“

“Fun, chill bar. always a good time.“

“Had a nice meal this evening. Rocco, the new chef, is an excellent addition to the Stone Mad team. BBQ chicken was excellent, My wife enjoyed her vegan burger. The chicken paprikash with pretzel appetizer was a pleasant surprise (I'm very picky about chicken paprikash) Almost licked the bowl finishing the apple cobbler dessert. Our server, Bobbi, was extremely helpful in every way imaginable We will be going back with friends next time“

“First and foremost, let's talk about the service. Phenomenal!! Rachel was so attentive, friendly, engaging, and very helpful. Considering she was the bartender and my family and I were on the patio, watching a Browns game, she was busy. We never felt neglected. Everyone enjoyed their food. It was hot and fresh. This was my first time at Kelly's. I'm the one who chose it for our family event, and I'm glad I did. We will be back! I highly recommend Kelly's. It's roomy, clean, family friendly, great parking, and easy to find.“

“Good bar and were u can have good time“

“Bookhouse is an absolute gem. Amazing beers in a variety of interesting styles, friendly & attentive bartenders, and a nice relaxing environment. You'll feel welcome no matter who you are. Ask the bartenders about the history of the building if you're a history buff, it's extremely cool and unique. If you're like me and enjoy going out for a beer, but want to be somewhere you can have a conversation without sports or other TV blaring at you, this is the place to be!“

“We weren’t expecting to pop in here but we’re suckers for Irish Pubs. Food and atmosphere was excellent. Welcoming, fun, spirited.“

“We did a private party for our 50th wedding anniversary on 9/21/24. Everything was fantastic including the staff, the food and the atmosphere. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. June was super helpful. We grew up in the neighborhood and this was the perfect place. Highly recommend for a private party.“

“The food was delicious and the beer was cold!“

“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!“

“Cool spot! Had a great time with friends!“

“Went for Sunday Brunch. The food was very good. The best part was the staff. They were very welcoming. Janette did a wonderful job. Never hovering; just made sure are needs were met. Everyone of the staff were smiling and kind. Thank you for the excellent food and service.“

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

“I really like this place I always forget about them they have such a varied menu but everything is pretty good. The one thing I do not like is their Booth style tables for a larger group have absolutely no room the table is just too big you can barely get in and out of the seats unless you're a very small child or a small person. It is very uncomfortable.

Parking: The paid parking spots are closer to the restaurant than free parking spots free parking spots are quite a distance away“

“👍 great people , great food !“

“I don’t go out to bars much these days but decided to stick my head in on St. Paddy’s as I’ve driven by a bunch. Looks so low key and not at all obnoxious from the outside - no advertisements for various alcohol, just a good old Christmas Story lamp in the window. Inside, it’s a warm and friendly neighborhood pub that made me feel welcome. Full of Irish cheer on the big day, but I’m sure there is some of that year round. Prices for a pint were fair maybe even in the lower side. Some places regulars don’t really like new people coming in or are cool or suspicious towards them. Not here at all. I barely drink anymore but if I was going to have a goto neighborhood pub this would be it.“

“Went there tonight and had the best pizza I’ve had in years!“

“Great local spot. Delicious food & drinks.“

“Hosted a small retirement dinner, great experience from the initial reservation to the final drink. The staff took great care of us & the food was very good! I definitely recommend!!!“

“Happiest place on earth!!“

“I went to Sauced tonight an hour before they closed. I was served by Alyssa (blue hair) and she was literally so accommodating, nice and overall so helpful. The service was 10/10! I will be back! �“

“📍 Moosehead Tavern – Westlake, OH 📸 @mooseheadsaloonwestlake This place is all charm and chill vibes. It’s cozy inside with a cool little patio that makes it feel like your neighborhood hangout—but with better food. Stopped in for a quick lunch today and lucked out—half-off ribs was on deck, so you know I had to jump on that. 🍖 Ribs – 7.8/10 Fall-off-the-bone tender with a flavorful sauce that hit the spot. Not fancy, just solid and satisfying BBQ at a great deal. 🍟 Fries – A mountain. Literally. They gave me what felt like 4 pounds of crispy golden fries—no complaints there. 🍅 Ketchup – Unexpected MVP Not sure if it's house-made or some secret blend, but the ketchup was different... and honestly? Delicious. It added something extra to every bite. Whether you’re out for a laid-back meal or a quick bite on a deal day, Moosehead Tavern delivers. Check it out if you’re in the Westlake area! 🍽️ Two food lovers, one page—justifying our epic food binges, one bite at a time.

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

“Based on my first try: it's a Wednesday at 7 P.M. It's June 5th and it's about 75 degrees. Light breeze. There's about 5 people. All of them are nice. Didn't see my future wife. But I ordered pizza down the street and they had beer. I'll come back again“

“One of the best little bars in Lakewood it's been there forever and used to be called The Mighty Mouse now it's called Mullins air on the owner is one hell of a cool dude and all the bartenders there are very very polite and helpful prices are very affordable as well and they got Touch Tunes on the jukebox so you can hear any music you want definitely stop in when you're in the neighborhood and enjoy“

“Love this place! Always a great atmosphere with a family feel. The bar offers occasional extras like contests, live music and just fun people! The food is beyond yummy!! The cook offers great twists on regular dishes and the prices are reasonable. Check the place out!! Well worth the stop!!! Be sure to say hi to Moose if he's there when you stop.“

“I love this place. Truly. Mel is one of my favorite people in the world, and to have her as a bartender is even better. Lin is also another definite stand out.Great food, good drinks. It being a trucker bar can be kinda hit and miss with the people. I’ve had great conversations and times with people here, and sometimes it makes you wish these guys would just stay in the truck, and keep the clowning to 19.But hey! Such is life. Get the prime rib if you can! It sells fast!“

“Love this place and everyone in it! 🙂“

“Fantastic Hawaiian Pizza“

“Pulled pork w/ fries 🔥 Hamburger w/ fries 🔥 Po boy sandwich w/ fresh cut chips 🔥 Overall very good!“

“Friendly servers and staff“

“Stopped in at the request of my granddaughter; she loves it there! The service was great as well as the atmosphere . But what got me was their Chicken Paprikash!! I gave it a 10 outta 10!! Going back for more today! 👍🏽💞👍🏽💋“

“Great place to have a party!! We had a large group for a surprise party, the staff was incredibly accommodating. Brooke handled our large group like a champ! I can’t say enough good things about her. Our party of about 50 people could not get over how amazing she was. No one went without a beverage and the food orders were on point.
Absolutely so pleased with the experience… we’ll continue to have our parties here.
Brooke - you rock!!“

“One of the best bbq chicken pizzas I've had in the last 10 years. The peppers were an amazing tough. Dough was soft yet crisp, right amount of sauce, and the chicken was small pieces making it way easier to eat than most. The loaded Jojo's were amazing. Got delivery and everything was hot and perfectly prepared. Better than expected and will be ordering again!“

“Place is great! The comedy show last night was packed and featured a lot of talented comics. Love the patio too!“

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

“I absolutely love this place. The owners are amazing. The bartending staff is phenomenal and the food is out of this world. ❤️😍“

“Words cannot accurately explain how great our experience was tonight! I decided to celebrate my mom’s 78th birthday here due to the fact my mom loves Antonio’s pepperoni nuggets and she’s never been here before. We had 14 people in our party and Megan K. was an absolute rockstar! Everyone was so welcoming and gracious to my mom on her special day! Food was FANTASTIC!! Thank you all for a wonderful evening!“
