Amazing food, music, people, service and inexpensive drinks. The bar manager (Amber?) is extremely hands on...rumored she stays in a room in the rafters to handle any complaints. The best Cleveland dive(ish) bar around! Kevin read more

I love Becky's. It's one of my favorite bars. I didn't go to CSU for undergrad and this bar kind of makes me wish I did. They do karaoke every other weekend on Saturdays. Their bartenders are usually pretty great and everyone is so friendly. They seem to do a great job hiring genuine people. Their food is great and made fresh. You have no reason not to go. read more

Ended up after passing through your town and needed a flat tire fixed... The mozzarella sticks are perfect and the pirogue sandwich was some unique to an out of towner. Well done. read more

They have the best wings and Fries. Actually you can't go wrong with anything on the menu!!

We were visiting Cleveland from CA and looking for a sports bar to watch the NBA playoff game and get dinner. Oh, add that I'm a vegetarian, and there's our world. Well, we loved this place. We walked from our hotel. The staff was so friendly, the food was yummy, and there were several vegetarian options. It was a little awkward at first; we didn't know if it was open seating or not, but the super friendly bartender explained to order at the bar, sit anywhere, and just relax, so we did. Our food was delivered to the table we chose with a perfect view of the TV. Oh, bonus -- they turned up the volume on the TV, so you could hear the game. read more

Don't expect to find anything Art Deco, modernista, or couture. This is a dive bar. And, it's one of the best in Cleveland, if not the world. The kitchen is open late, there are specials every night of the week, and the few taps circulate once in a blue moon. The bartenders are nice, the food is on point, and the dart boards are always open. It's a home away from home. Also, tater tots. Also, Saturday Karaoke. Also, Taco Tuesday. read more

Once again Yelp did us right! Found this place and had a great time. Went here to have a few drinks before a show and the people were very nice. Had a good happy hour and the service was good....actually left and forgot or tickets to the show on the bar and when we called back they were holding them for us. Really saved our a$$! Thanks again!!! read more

Becky's is "definitely awesome." Becky's is an awesome dive bar just a few blocks off of Playhouse Square. As the kind police officer at the gas station informed me when I tried to buy beer after 1 a.m., Becky's is the only place in town that has a liquor license to sell after the 1 a.m. curfew. My friend and I went to Becky's around 1:15, after having performed that night. The bartender persuaded us not to buy their expensive takeout beer and instead hooked us up with some free beers and cheap shots. We were served extremely well by the kind lady behind the bar, caroused with the friendly locals despite being from out of town, and even got a couple free car bombs from a kind gentleman at the bar. Becky's rocks! If I'm ever back in Cleveland, I'll definitely go back. read more

This is the best dive bar ever. Great burgers, great wings and great pierogis. Staff is friendly and the patrons are so fun!

I use Becky's as a yardstick for other bars. It's predictable, comfortable, and familiar, but without being too dull. The food is surprisingly good, and actually fresh, which is a rarity when it comes to bars. For a while about a year ago, the quality was so-so at best, but it's gotten much better. I mostly go veg when I'm there, but one evening I decided to go after a steak instead, and found that they're surprisingly worthwhile. They don't smother it in seasonings, and whoever's running the grill knows what he or she is doing. Want a Pabst? They've got that. Want a craft beer? Ditto. Want to go write on the bathroom walls? They're apparently pretty OK with that, given that there's what amounts to conversations in Sharpie going on in the men's room. read more

If you have a lot of time to waste, and who doesn't in Cleveland, then Becky's is the place you want to be waiting for a big fat burger. You will wait, and depending on how good the conversation is at your table, it will be worth the wait. The bigger question is whether it's worth the weight. Which is to say, you are going to bust a gut, clog an artery and catch a charley horse in your jaw muscles getting through a Becky's combo plate. Serious, Big. Burgers. Massive. Onion. Rings. And the bathroom's not scary. What more can you ask for? Oh wait. You need to know more. Firstly, you can expect to be noshing around the likes of dudes who may or may not have had an honorable discharge from the Army. Not talking gunny, I'm talking grunt. Wear your red plaid or avoid eye contact if you're uncomfortable around hardhats, ex-cops and pipefitters. Secondly, the darts wall looks serious. That's what you need to know. read more

Fun little dive bar, that has a nice long happy hour. Great for after work when you want to hang with friends and have a few drinks.

As a downtown resident and a student nearby, Becky's is a breath of fresh air amongst many of the other superficial and overpriced bars downtown. It's atmosphere and patronage are real and down-to-earth. $2 PBRs. $1 off pitchers if you're a student (higher education has its perks). And food food served til close; none of that "kitchen closes at 10pm" B.S. Speaking of the food, I think it's some of the most underrated food in Cleveland. My friends all really enjoy the food there, and their menu is pretty big for a dive bar. I can't get past their wings though. Something about wings at a dive bar - its nostalgic like mom's crusted PB&J. And guess what (literally)... they have trivia on Thursday nights. I would definitely go there before a concert at State Theater or Wolstein. Or graduation. Or anything over near East 18th and Chester for that matter. read more

This is, by far, my favorite bar in the greater Cleveland area thus far. It's "divey"....which I like but not TOO divey. Meaning they have no pretentious atmosphere but still have the local craft beers on the ready and a kitchen that stays open until 1am with a fairly decent selection of bar food. If you want to feel comfortable, have a drink or ten, a bite to eat and aren't a total dick (or a hipster that inherently hates everything already), this is the place to go. read more

my coworkers come here ALL THE TIME, it is the go-to place for work lunches with a bunch of people. It's also the go-to place for happy hour with coworkers. They have drinks named after some of my coworkers. I'm not over-the-top for anything on their menu. Good place to eat, standard bar-food options. I've never had a gross meal there. Bathrooms are fine, staff is consistent. I had really slow service the last time I was there, and I knew something was up bc it's never like that. When we checked out, the waitress was really apologetic, someone hadn't shown up for their shift. In the meantime, the bartender had gone WAY out of her way to come refill our beverages. I know it's a CSU bar, and it's probably fun for drinking, but it's a solid option for lunch or dinner too. Options for vegetarians and omnivores alike. Point of interest: brethalyzer machine on the wall, I think it costs a dollar, uses your own straw. I would try it if I ever had alcohol while I was there. read more

Every year my work throws a Christmas party and they love coming here for the after party. It has a little dance floor with a DJ on weekends, also boasts karaoke every other week. Free parking on the side, cheap booze, excellent tater tots AND if you check in on yelp you get a free coupon for free Labatt draft!!!! Now I like to come here after blowing a wad across the street at Hofbrahaus or if their lines are too long. This place is TOTES DIVEY so no need to dress to impress. Expect some fun people watching. read more

I'm here on taco Tuesday at Becky's and they have 2$ tacos before 9 and the tacos are great but they made us order at the bar which was fine and we brought our food to the table but while I was eating I noticed they brought another table their food and they were white and we were black and I just felt a way about that but other than that the food was freaks drinks I give 7 out of 10 read more

Becky's, I haven't seen you since undergrad. (OY! I have realized this is now many moons ago...) Becky's pretty much is the same as it was in my undergrad years (I will refrain from saying how many years ago that was...) with minor differences. i.e The old pool table is now no longer in the front of the place, in fact, there is no pool table. I think the menu is the same as it was ahem years ago and the burgers are still yummy as well as the fries. Darts are in the back, as before, and so are the bathrooms. Careful to avoid the darts on your way to the john. Bartenders were cool. An A-OK in my book. And a heck of alot faster than the Hoffbrauhaus aross the street. read more

Tiffany J with the blue hair took my order along with my cash payment and told me it would be 25-30 minutes for my food to arrive. I took a seat in her eyeshot making eye contact with her several times. After about an hour I saw customers who had come in after me who had sat at the bar getting bags of food to go. I approached the gentleman who handed them their bags and inquired about the status of my order. He replied " it's probably at the bar" and there it was. Why wouldn't Tiffany tell me when my food had arrive? Why wouldn't she tell me that I had to come up to the bar to keep checking to see if it was there? We made eye contact several times during that hour and she never said anything. Today was my 3rd trip to your restaurant within a week. I came with friends on Saturday and someone ordered onion rings that I tasted. They were so tasty I came back on Sunday with my family but you were out of onion rings. I thought the 3rd time would be the charm so I tried calling in my order this evening since I am coming from Strongsville but I got a recording saying no phone orders. I make the 30 minute drive for the 3rd time in a week just to receive terrible to go service. My food had sat there long enough to get cold. My onion rings that I had craved all week were limp and disappointing. Since Covid-19 to go order service is often so horrible that I save leaving a tip until after I confirm that my order is correct. Tiffany I had every intention on leaving you a tip I just prefer to wait until the end to better determine what is deserved. I appreciate that you came to work today I just wish you would have reciprocated the appreciation. Do better Tiffany J! read more

Holy moly!!! A neighborhood, non-showy, non-hipster, low-key bar that has a great offering of vegetarian food!!! Not only vegetarian in name, but the menu even says veggie items are cooked on a separate grill! And guess what: the veg options are really tasty!! As you might ascertain, I'm happy with the veg selection.... Besides that, the bartenders at Becky's are always friendly, attentive and pleasant to chat with. No attitude, no BS, just quality. Becky's is a great place to have a tasty drink & a good meal in a laid-back atmosphere. read more

Bad service. Majority of the tables in the establishment were dirty so my sisters and I decided to sit at the bar. The 1st bartender didn't have the best attitude. Our food took so long that we decided to take it to go. When our food came out no one went to get it for us and it sat there for an extra 10 minutes. We had to remind them to give us our food. I'm only giving them to stars because my sister's really enjoyed their wings and burgers. My wings were - meh. read more

Rich L. Is an idiot. Becky's kills it as far as dive bar goes. Top notch bar food. The pierogis are the way to go. The times I've been there for lunch I've had great service and even had the cook come over and ask how everything was. I'm sure this place isn't pretentious enough for some (Rich L.) But for those looking for great food, drinks at a reasonable price in a comfortable dive atmosphere, this place gets it. Everyone else can go to Applebee's. read more

Great vibe. Super chill. Burger and pierogi was great! Ill be back every night! Ivy is great!!! read more

Becky's - Pierogi. So good!! - Dive Bars Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Great food! I got a gigantic delicious salad here and can't wait to go back. Their burgers look amazing. Great prices. The interior is old but really comfortable. There is a small parking lot next door. Staff was mostly nice, but very blunt with me when I asked for a substitution on my salad. read more

I have been to Becky"s more than 10 times and I will have to rate this bar a 2/10 and a one star on here. First off the prices are pricey and the quality of the food is not worth the price. The wings have no meat, the sandwiches are small and the burgers are never cooked the way you asked for them. (Not hard to cook a medium-rare burger) Second the bar staff is weak, I have waited about 40 minutes for my meal every-time I have gone. (I work a block away and this is the closest bar/restaurant to eat at) My last meal was a chicken salad club, I waited over 45 minutes....they seem to care more about takeout than their actual customers at the bar. Overall I would never recommend this place, has a lot of improvement. read more

No no no very poor at service. I will not be back. Lunch is bad bad bad. Time slow food cold service poor. I strongly recommend anyone not to go there. read more

Hipster paradise, shitty service, haven't even tasted the food yet because apparently I am not a priority. Hard pass, ill update if the food is worth a shit. read more

I've been into Becky's several times since moving to the neighborhood and have had all very positive experiences for the most part. I was pleasantly surprised as to how good the food is - I've had the burger, wings, salad...all very good for bar food. Probably some of the best I've had in all of Cleveland for cheap bar food actually. The best part about this bar is the wide variety of people you will see here - from the college 21 year old white boy to the 65 year old city worker black woman - you will see all ranges of colors and ages which is cool to see. read more

One of my new favorites. Cheap Labatts on draft and great bar food. Seems like Midtown is coming up and although Becky's seems like it been here forever it is part of the midtown rise. I really liked the roasted red pepper sandwich. read more

A solid three stars. The fries I had were good, the beers are reasonably priced, and the bartenders are nice. But dang, it's lit like a high school gym, and there is no background noise besides people talking. If you are traveling through and trying to get a drink in a dive, this is not your place. I'm sure it's rad for students though. read more

It smelled! And the bathrooms are far away. And you have to order from the bar; no one will come to your table. But great parking lot. The tables are multiple but not good. The food was good and very Cleveland: perogis, potato pancakes, not healthy but very good. I would come back for a cold beer and the yummy food. read more

Came here with a few coworkers after a awork function. I loved the private lot! When you walk in, you immediately notice the cool, local vibe. The rest rooms could use some remodeling & clean up. We sampled a few appetisers & our service was great. I don't live in the area, but would go back! read more

Just about any flavor aka type of beer you could want. Food is filling, fast and good. The staff here at Beckys are friendly and fun. read more

Best burgers in that area. The fries are always fresh and hot and the burgers could feed a family. The selection of drinks is great from ciders to beers to mixed drinks. It's parking lot is a bit shady at night so make sure to hide valuables in your car. I love how the bar is big so many people can sit and enjoy.. read more

Great wings great atmosphere! Have had many get-togethers here! Lots of great food and drink specials to choose from. Different days different specials. You will be happy with this place! read more

This place is a hidden gem for pretty much anyone who didn't go to CSU. I'd seen the place when I was in the area for shows at Playhouse Square but never ventured in. From the outside it looks like a potentially rough dive especially since there really isn't much other than the Conrad's around it. A friend of mine who goes to CSU was there for trivia with friends and invited me along. Upon entering I was pleasantly surprised, it was divey but definitely not in a grimey or run down sort of way. It looked like your average sports/dive bar. They have a pretty extensive beer list and it seemed like trivia was a pretty popular event at the bar. The beer prices were a little higher than I would expect from a "college bar" but not by much and the food prices were pretty cheap. I'd definitely go back if I'm in the area for a casual night. read more

I happen to be around looking for a place to eat and I spotted this place, not your ordinary place to eat but they serve food. As I walk in since I'm not a drinker they left me in the front ( I guess waiting to be waited on) so I asked ; where can I sit to eat, no I am not drinking, I'm eating. They said walk towards the back . and that was it. After having the waiter passed me like 5 times, I got up to the bar and asked where can I placed my order, bartender: oh with me. So I placed my order. Now follow me: I got two eggs on a plate, then 10 mins later I got the greasiest bacon ever, never got toast and I had to request the fries but by the time I got the fries I had to go. I ate plain eggs and drank cold coffee. NEVER AGAIN! read more

Great neighborhood dive bar. Drinks are cheap, happy hour specials are cheaper and the bar food is grand. If you are looking for a fun dive bar and not super upity, this is the spot for you! read more

Overall a very good experience. Old school sports bar feel. Beer drafts are minimal, took awhile to be served on a lazy Sunday. Only ordered apps which were pretty good. Very cool looking atmosphere and a good amount of seating. During the busy week I'm sure it runs very well. Over count me satisfied read more

I had a great time here and found exactly what I was looking for. The atmosphere at the front of the place is very nice. I would say it could have been better if there were more people, but oh well. I guess I went there during the off-season when CSU was not in session yet. It was surprisingly empty. They have a good beer selection, and more importantly helpful and friendly bartenders. I will try to go to this place often. read more
