I'm so glad this restaurant is within miles of my house. I decided to come here on a Saturday evening with my son to have some dinner. We started off with mozzarella sticks and they were amazing. You get at least eight sticks. I usually get soda when I come here but tonight I decided to get a margarita on the rocks and it was only seven dollars and it was delicious. My son got the Smashburger and I got the buffalo chicken wrap, but I got the mild sauce on it. We had Natalie J as our server and she was excellent. She was very attentive and prompt with bringing me my to go box as well as my check. I did go to the bathroom and the garbage in there was overflowing. Other than that, it was a great experience. There are a bunch of TVs here so it is a good place to watch sports and at times they do have live music. read more

We went around 2:30pm on a Tuesday. The service was absolutely amazing! The food and drinks came out super fast and everything was correct. I would highly recommend the shrimp tacos and the strawberry boozy lemonade, perfect combo for sitting outside on the balcony overlooking buck creek waterfall! read more

The service was adequate, appetizers and main entrees were very good. We did not appreciate the bait-and-switch advertising for Dos Equis draft beer. They prominently displayed signs for it, but in actuality, did not have it available. They didn't apologize or offer any type of explanation at all. Just a matter-of-fact kind of response that they didn't have it. When it was pointed out that they were advertising on the walls of that that very building as a "Special" they just shrugged it off as if to say "What about it - what's the big deal?" We did not appreciate the nonchalant and unconcerned attitude toward customers. read more

So unfortunately I had to dock you a star. You are needing servers badly and not just servers but friendly servers. The one I had yesterday was not the least bit personable. She still got a good tip but yet she could have cared less . I'm glad you have added meat and veggies to your menu . The Birthday menu is okay too. I got the catfish plate- catfish took up part of the plate w/ fried okra, grilled Zucchini, and coleslaw that while good (They up charge you like 3.00 why??) We also got fish and chips unfortunately it tasted like frozen Gordons fish portions We used to get way back when. It wasnt what We expected at all. Guess I'll have to go to Twin Peaks for that . Son got his tried and true Armadillo burger. He also got the Birthday cake while good that icing was as heavy as the icing on wally world's cakes. If you know you know. We got the lava cake cookie which was good and came with ice cream. I do appreciate you trying to expand your menu. Some are hits and some are misses. It's better than somewhere similar that has Father's in its name in Alabaster lol All in all I'd still come back occasionally. read more

Great, friendly service. Large portions for a great price, especially the daily specials. And also very accommodating for dietary restrictions. My partner is on a very strict diet and they worked with him to provide a meal he could eat. Friendly, home town feel, with a nice location right by the water. Inside and outside seating available and parking on site. read more

It's a nice spot to grab lunch or dinner on the River. Located in Old Town Helena, everyone is very friendly. The waitress was extremely helpful. That watermelon lemon was delicious. The chicken sandwich was cooked fresh to order, and the onion rings were fried exactly as I liked them. I can't wait to go back and try a few other items. read more

Great food, service and bar scene. The locals were friendly and bartender was awesome

One of my family members come here for lunch with friends, so we decided to try it for a family lunch. Pretty quick service. Be sure to check the menu for specials. I got a steak, and it was cooked to order and tasted pretty good for this price point. This location has been several things, but it may be unique for a Beef's. It has a great view on a local small part of a river, and the porch is well-shaded. Very nice place to sit and eat when the weather is agreeable. read more

Service was good. Most food was good but don't order grilled shrimp. The seasoning was a little off and it's definitely not fresh. It's frozen and I just couldn't eat it. read more

Service was very rude and took 30 mins just get our drinks. Refused to change a tv to a game we wanted to watch and then sat us h see a tv where tv was not viewable. Then they asked us to move bc they wanted our chairs to accommodate other ppl. Very rude service. Food wasn't even that good. So I wouldn't recommend this place. Many other better places than this place. read more

Food was bland - air conditioner leaked on us - hostess was trying to sit everyone in the worst seat they had - view would be worth it if you could sit there! read more

This restaurant has a great atmosphere and is family friendly! We loved it so much we ate there two days in a row! We ate/tried everything from burgers to wings, and it was all so good!! read more

Food was delicious. We had intended to eat at the steak house near by but they were closed. I still wanted a steak so we tried Beef O'Brady's with low expectations. But I found out I was wrong on the first bite. Cooked to perfect medium with a just the right amount of seasoning. I chose zucchini as my side. It came lightly stir fried. Excellent meal. read more

Great staff, great food and awesome outside dining overlooking buck creek George and his team are customer focused and very accommodating read more

Now I'm a little hard on my reviews, so don't pass this joint up if in town. Why only 3 stars???.... I don't want to over hype the food. I mean it was tasty! And proportions were perfect for one person which I appreciate. Had the Cuban sandwich- not the best we've had but a 7-8 out of 10, would order again. A chefs salad, not impressed with the Bleu cheese dressing, switched to ranch-way better! Salad itself was made with better cuts of lunch meats. But wasn't too crazy about the bacon in it. The French fries were ordinary but good, nothing special but were fresh to order and came to table hot. Other food ordered with our party but since I myself didn't sample it not going to comment. Service was decent, very friendly waitress and food came pretty quickly for our bigger group of 7. However had to ask for another ranch dressing a few times before it came to table. Love Love the Ambiance of the restaurant, we sat outside and the Creek splashing thru, train holler just a ways off, a true southern feel.... Beautiful! Beers were cold! Will we be back? YES! If I could give the place a 3.75 I would, just don't think it's a full 4 star, not until I try more food. Sorry... didn't get pics. read more

Updated review with Spring 2024 menu pics! Yall did it big with this one. Beefs is always a joy to visit. It's date and family friendly, relaxing, and the location is great for our local cities. Service is quick and they stay up top if any needs. We love Beefs and you get all my quarters in the candy/toy coin machines! read more

This is the first sit-down-at-the-restaurant meal I've had since March. Been doing lots of takeout, but felt pretty good about Beef O'Brady's since they have a big porch out back. Tables are well spaced. The back porch is covered, and it's under shade, and it has a great view of Buck Creek Waterfall there in Helena. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Wrap. This is one of those items that sounds like it's good for you, but it has your daily allowance of fat if you get the fries, too. Which I did, and I'm okay with that (though I did skip the mayo). It was a good size wrap with lots of chicken and bacon. It also comes with a side of ranch to dip or add to your wrap. Side of skin-on fries, and I was satisfied for the day. The other dish for the table was the Poblano Chicken Lettuce Wraps. This dish may not always be available if there are romaine lettuce issues. Served with your choice of steamed broccoli or zucchini. Three generous lettuce bowls. Looked a little more like a salad from my side of the table, but eventually seemed manageable as three large boats/wraps by the end of it. So if you haven't been eating out, this Beef O'Brady's is a great choice. read more

My husband and I went there last weekend on a date, we generally absolutely love it there. However, the duck race was going on and not being from around here I asked him what the duck race was. We were standing at the table on the balcony, not even sat down, and a woman who was working the event, (ticket taker maybe), loudly interrupted our conversation telling us, -from the stairs not even standing near us, loudly says, "You can't just sit here for 4 hours". We had no intension of staying that long as that is ridiculous, we were talking about the race, saying zero about staying for hours, and she was clearly straining to listen to our conversation. I generally don't even go out anywhere due to an extreme anxiety condition, however we work very hard and this was supposed to be a long awaited treat. We felt attacked, as both of us are covered in tattoos and my husband has a face piercing. To be blatantly judged like that is not acceptable. Seeing the look on the family's faces as we were leaving said enough about this behavior, and I do not want nor appreciate attention, especially if it is negative. Before leaving, my husband apologized to our assigned waitress, as that remark cost her a table and a generous tip. Not to mention it completely ruined the day. So this is by no means against this restaurant, rather the person who was hired to help with an event. read more

First time here! We just moved to Helena and really needed a good meal after moving all day. I'm so glad we chose here! We were seated outside next to the river- it was so beautiful! I ordered the Cuban with onion rings and street corn and it was delicious! Hubby ordered the surf and turf and went mute for 5 minutes while he scarfed it down. We had cheesecake which was the icing on the cake! The strawberry sauce went very well with it. Our server (Jasmine "like the flower") was amazing! So attentive! My drink was never empty and everything was well paced. We look forward to making this place a weekly date night destination! read more

I had the steak garlic melt w/onion rings. Tasted great! Service was great also. We sat on the patio, so nice with the water fall.

Beef o bradys in helena Alabama was awesome!! The food was excellent and the service was even better. Stephanie was the bartender on shift and she was amazing. Thanks Beef O Bradys for the great experience ill definitely be going back!!! read more

Nice bar atmosphere food good reasonably priced. Polite-prompt-professional no problems

One of our weekly favorites. Food is great & staff is amazing! I recommend the Big Catch salad!

I visited the bar-side of this restaurant for the first time two weeks ago, and this is now my new hang. Great decor, flat-screen TVs everywhere you look, and an amazing variety of beers on tap. It's a clean, modern, comfortable kind of sports bar. The best part are the bartenders. They are attentive, fun and generous pourers who seem to know everyone they serve. Huge props to Blake the GM for making this a great place to unwind. read more

Love the wings! Great service! Need to add Yuengling light!! Please!!! Need more light beer choices.

Great local business that I visit almost every day. They have daily menu specials and a fully stocked bar along with great craft beers on tap. It's an unpretentious place to visit to meet new friends and to interact with old friends. I highly recommend that you give them a visit and help support a locally owned business. read more

Beef 'O' Brady's - Boneless wings with Buffalo wing sauce, fries and slaw - Pubs Near Me - Helena, Alabama

I visited the one in Helena haven't been before. The restaurant sits overlooking Buck creek in Helena which is a nice spot. Sitting outside in August is only for the strong and the brave we were neither but it's a very nice spot. The food was fresh hot and well prepared. It was very excellent. The jewel in the crown of this place is Taylor who was our waitress. She was knowledgeable as she was witty, when asked for a suggestions she told us her favorite which we named "The Taylor" try it you will like it. read more

Beef 'O' Brady's - Pubs Near Me - Helena, Alabama

This place has the worst service of any restaurant we go to. My husband and I have been eating here once a week for almost a year and the service has declined a little more each week. The food is mediocre at best. A year ago it was good. The wing baskets were our favorite thing but now they are cooked so long they are dried out. The only thing this place has going for it is the onion rings and the patio with a view of the waterfall. However, if you sit out there, don't expect to be waited on for the first 10 minutes. read more

This was my first here tonight. We were seated promptly and the staff was very nice. Our waiter was attentive and shared with us the specials and proceeded to take our drink orders. I ordered the Nashville hot and garlic Parmesan wings. They were pretty good. They were fried crispy and the flavors on the wings were plentiful to taste. One of my concerns is they give you this small container of ranch and blue cheese and it's so hard to put the wing in for dipping. The fries need some work. They were so plain and had no additional taste. Good to see a new addition to Shelby county. read more

Amy Brown does not recommend Beef 'O'Brady's in Helena. The $12.00 Chicken Caesar Salad that I ordered arrived in a small bowl with less than 1/4 ounce of chicken in the salad. It was a bowl of greens with a few croutons and a tiny bit of chicken. I sent the salad back telling the manager that the chicken serving size was not acceptable for the selling price of $12. The manager initially argued with me stating that she did not personally make the salad. Then she argued that all chicken servings are weighed according to scale prior to preparation. Finally she agreed to remake the salad with a larger chicken proportion. The new salad arrived and it had more chicken but the taste was not good. To top things off, we were shorted 30 cents in our change from the bill. The manager said that they rounded off the change to the nearest dollar. Instead of rounding off to our benefit, they rounded up and kept the extra change. read more

I just walked out of the place again. I thought I would give them a second chance and they blew it again. The last time we were here they forgot we had sat down and we waited for the waitress for 20 minutes. Same thing just happened today. Saw people coming in after us and they had a waitress come fast as we were still waiting on ours. We left and will never come back. Waitress came back to our table looking clueless without our beverages and we just walked out and will never come back read more

Service was great the food is definitely 3 star , nothing terrible just bland, Queso dip flavorless, salsa tasted like marinara sauce , Philly cheese steak bland ,( better than Arby's ) could have caramelized the onions , (you have a grill ), or toasted the bun and at least season the meat with something . Fries ok , the tea was the highlight oh my food . Nice place to have a beer and watch football , but I'd rather brought my own food . read more

Great service. Good bar. Great crowd. Great location. Outside has great view. Food is good as well.

Went to the Helena location and it was such a great experience. They had live music and a lit patio area that overlooks a body of water. Food was surprising above average in terms of "pub/bar food". We had the boneless lemon pepper wings with fries and it was hot and fresh, as opposed to sitting under a heating lamp. Overall a 10/10. Parking does suck. We went on a Saturday evening but we still had a lovely experience. read more

I so want to give this place a 4 star, but the food was just meh. We went here with a party of 10 on a Sunday after church. We got a table right away. Though it was right by the door with the cold draft, it was fine because the fireplace was lit and felt as though the heater was on. The atmosphere is very nice and feels somewhat homey. Our waitress was amazing. She was very helpful, kind and funny, and prompt and precise on our orders. I ordered the 2 grilled fish tacos with a lemon pepper seasoning. It came with chips & salsa. The grilled 'white fish' was in a flour tortilla topped with cabbage, cheddar jack cheese, and a creamy poblano sauce. I was NOT impressed! The fish tasted of cheap frozen fish sticks that they took the breading off and heated in the microwave. I would not get this again. The chips & salsa were good-can't really mess that up. The price was good, no complaints on that. I will give this place another shot and hope to sit outside or at the bar and ONLY focus on appetizers and a few brews. I think this is the way to go with this place. read more

The hostess was super nice. She told us it would be a 35 minute wait for two. We only had to wait 15-20 minutes before she sat us. Our mozzarella stick appetizer came out after five minutes of ordering it. Our wings were delicious and we finished it off with the cookie lava cake topped with vanilla ice cream. Even though our server Mac had full table she was still very attentive and welcoming as I told her it was our first time there. We will be back! Excellent food and excellent service! read more

This is a great family friendly venue. You can relax on the deck overlooking a waterfall, dine inside, or sit at the bar. The food has always been good. My husband loves the wings and has never been disappointed. read more
