Beef 'O' Brady's is located in Peru, and it's also a halfway meeting point for our daughter when we host our grandson for a weekend. I've visited this location three times in the last six months, and I've been impressed each time we've come here. I don't usually set high expectations for bar food, but Beef 'O' Brady's seems to have a more curated menu than many of their competitors. I've had the beef nachos twice, and it was great both times. Service has always been prompt, and their prices are fair. read more

Beef 'O' Brady's - Steak Nachos - Pubs Near Me - Peru, Indiana

Beef O'Brady's is the kind of place where go "I don't know what I'm in the mood for... Okay, Beef's it is." The extensive menu has the hamburgers covered superbly, does a credible fish 'n chips, has a passable Mexican/American section, good salads... basically if you can't find something that appeals to you here, you need to try harder. The beer list (from a full bar) is also more than adequate. (3 Floyds, I'm looking at you!) And I've never had a less-than-generous sample on the occasions I've asked. Also worth mentioning is the service. I've never once had a bad interaction with wait staff. Patient, knowledgeable, helpful... doesn't matter if they're slammed or dead (and Peru certainly serves up both), the wait staff is great. The whole "this is not quite a sports bar" vibe also works somehow. Lots of reasons to head to Beef's. read more

The value has apparently disappeared in 2026. I know yelp doesn't like to talk about prices, but I doubt I'll be back at this point. This meal I ordered can be had at comparable restaurants for a lot less. Sorry but a thirty percent increase AND losing the option of chips or a salad with the meal is uncalled for. It's a shame because the food is fine, but just can't justify coming here anymore. read more

Beef 'O' Brady's - Add-on menu - Pubs Near Me - Peru, Indiana

So they get 3 stars for service. We came on a Saturday afternoon and it was dead. The decorations are very sports oriented and there are TV's to watch whatever game is on. The food wasn't great. We both ordered the Steak Melt sandwich. It was dry, too chewy and the sauce wasn't good. However, the fries were the best part of the whole experience. read more

Stopped in with some friends for dinner on Saturday. We beat the dinner crowd by a short bit. I think we had been there previously but it had been such a long time we didn't really remember it. My husband and I chose from the special deal on the back of the menu. You could choose a drink, a salad or chips and salsa, and then pick an entree for a certain price point. We each had salads. He the side salad and I the Caesar's they weren't anything special but it was nice to have that additional option without the cost by closing one of their specials. My husband was craving fried chicken. The closest thing they had to that was chicken tenders so he went with it. They were nice and crispy and he was pleased with them. I decided on the cheeseburger and added sautéed mushrooms and chose Swiss cheese. It was a pretty good burger and I was satisfied. Our son got the cheeseburger with Mac & cheese and pulled pork on it and he seemed to enjoy it. Our friends seemed to overall enjoy their dinners and were satisfied. They ordered some appetizers and they were good as well. I would say nothing was exceptional or amazing but it was a good meal and our waitress took good care of us. I would go back if we were in the area, we don't live too far away, but probably wouldn't make a special trip to eat there. read more

We come here every year for a helicopter reunion at 369 Helicopter Museum. We always stop here with the group. This year I was a day late for the Beef O' Brady's dinner so we can In for lunch. I typically got a burger but got the Big catch. (Salads are healthy right?). This had to be the best piece of fish I've had this year! Amazing! Fresh salad and great dressing but the fish was outstanding. Kudos to the chef! read more

I know Beef 'O'Bradys has been in Peru for a number of years. Just never had the chance to go. We were all surprised by the interior. The restaurant looked clean and in good repair. Our server did a great job. Their prices are very reasonable. My Cousins got Rubens with Fries and they loved them. My husband got a Chefs Salad. It was huge and had a great amount of meats on it. He was very happy with it. I got a bunless 5 cheese burger with bacon. The bacon was crispy and it had tons of cheese on it. The burger itself was very good. We will remember to come back when we are in Peru. read more

Ordered boneless wings, Over cooked to point of being hard and dry. Husband ordered Philly, Looked good but just plain ole meat and cheese on a bun with a little onions and peppers - No Seasoning whatsoever - BORING. Cole Slaw very bland and boring too. Waitress got my order wrong and brought me the wrong amount of wings which I had to pay for her mistake even though I didn't eat them. Never asked us if something was wrong while taking away a plate that still had 6 out of 8 wings left on the plate. She waited on other customers before us, even though we were seated before them. NEVER GO THERE. read more

After more visits to Beef O' Brady's, I'm updating my review. Even though I am not always a fan of chains, I believe this one is locally owned. It's the nicest dining option I've come across in Peru. This town is full of fast food, pizza, beyond divy dives, and not much else. Beef O' Brady's has a clean environment with a bright, sporty feel to it. Since there are lots of televisions with vivid reception, you'll probably catch part of a game for a team you like. The prices seem to have increased on what already felt a bit high. However, considering what you get at Beef O'Brady's compared to other local spots which are extremely overpriced, I'd say you have a much better chance of getting your money's worth here. For an Impossible burger and fries alone, you'd pay almost as much at a well-known fast food joint across town for a sloppy and less tasty version carelessly thrown in a bag. Here, the food indeed tastes good AND is nicely presented. Thankfully, Beef O'Brady's has vegan and vegetarian options which are not easy to come by around here. My most recent booth experience in the main dining area was enjoyable but flawed. I would normally applaud a server for not having to write down orders, but she'd forgotten a few things for which we'd asked. Not a huge deal but definitely busy and in need of a pen and pad of paper. The dollar upcharge someone at my table received for a tiny cup of ranch on two for one wing night was disappointing. Another server who was friendly & ran us some of our food and drinks had a child helping. While cute, I can't help but think that seemed a bit unprofessional and unsanitary. Speaking of children, Beef O'Brady's is accommodating, although the aisles can get tight when highchairs are in use. The grilled cheese didn't look super appetizing, but they did have more than a few options for kids. They also have a small arcade. I last dined at the bar in the back where the best service can be obtained, and Ross did not disappoint. He pours a great draft beer and makes the best Old Fashioned I've had in my life. While the latter is on the pricey side at nearly $10, it was worth the splurge. He made food suggestions I hadn't realized were offered, made great conversation, and made me feel welcome all while also taking care of others at the bar and in the booths behind us. It's not often I come across someone with the talent and professionalism Ross has. I'd definitely return just to see Ross and sit at the bar again. His stellar hospitality earned Beef O'Brady's an extra star. After writing this, I decided to head into the bar around dinner time on a Monday. Not too busy on most weeknights. A large Killian's on draft is only $4.50. Just one dollar more than a pint. The Monday burger special doesn't include the Impossible burger, but I got one anyway sans tomato just because they don't like me anymore. Subbed for onions. I also added grilled mushrooms for $0.99 more. Good music, plenty full, and lots of fun for just over twenty bucks before tip. A couple of servers that came into the bar area didn't have a friendly vibe, but most did. Jami, our bartender, was fun and took great care of us. read more

Excellent service. Ross was great. My wife's steak was undercooked, but he took care of it and it came back perfect. The food was good otherwise. He was great with the kids too. It was a good experience for a change. read more

Beef 'O' Brady's - This is what they serve as a "bowl" of soup. I wonder what the cup is? - Pubs Near Me - Peru, Indiana

It started out okay with our drinks. We got our salad they were soggy and order two meals. The first meal was a hamburger absolutely disgustingly rubber!!! Then the second meal we got was 10 wings that were hard couldn't even cut it with a knife! read more

First time eating there. We were traveling through and needed a place to stop and eat. So glad we picked Beef O' Brady's. The food was absolutely delicious. I got the O'brady Burger and my husband got the BBQ pork, mac n cheese burger. They were both absolutely delicious. Cooked to perfection and the seasonings were spot on. I told my husband I would literally drive back up to Peru just to eat here!! read more

Awesome food and atmosphere, waitress was exceptional. Thank you for such a great first experience read more

Another great dining experience at Peru's Beef 'O' Brady's. It's a short drive from our home in Rochester and it's worth it. If your on the fence give it a chance! read more

Food was not worth ever going back. It took forever to get seated. But waitress earned the only star.

I don't know why this place dosent review better. We keep a boat on the lake and come in from out of town frequently. We always stop here to eat (we tried to find places around town..no one is ever open. We stumbled across this place a couple years ago and only come here now. The service is always very good and the food is great too. I love the zucchini side! We will keep returning every summer! read more

We waited almost 30 minutes (even though it wasn't that busy) a server that wasn't assigned to us took it into his hands to take care us us. He was extremely nice and very sweet. He felt bad we waited so long and gave us a discount. He made the wait worth it. He also had 2 full parties to take care of and still made sure we were doing okay when he could! THIS MAN DESERVES A RAISE. read more

The service was great, the steak fajitas.. not so much. Rubbery cut of meat, not tender, no taste..just gross. Our table also ordered a burger, was served a frozen hockey puck. No flavor, just grease. read more

Been coming here since 2011. Have always loved the food and the little atmosphere it has. It's a classic sports grill but with a focus on the local high school sports teams instead of professional. Not to say they don't have some but it's a pleasant mix. All you can eat wings (boneless) they used to have bone in as well but have axed them from the all you can eat on sundays and Monday's. read more

Usually a 3 star experience, tonight a 1 star. This is for the bartender which doesn't know how and refused to make a martini for my mother. Main alcohol: Gin Ingredients: 1/2 oz (1 part) Dry vermouth, 3 oz (6 parts) Gin Preparation: Straight: Pour all ingredients into mixing glass with ice cubes. Stir well. read more

I would only eat here if you're a regular. service is catered to individuals who frequent often. even there 5 times over the last month and can't get served because the regulars get preferential treatment. this includes the TV's and changing the channel even after it was changed for you. came in once to watch a ball game, only 2 other people in the bar, channel changed for me until more people (regulars) showed up then channel changed for them in mid stream of the game I was watching. also bar tenders cater to regulars spending most of their time talking and not serving customers. service is terrible unless you are their friends. sure hope they don't quit going because customers like me will NOT be returning. read more

We enjoy going back to the bar area to eat. We like supporting a local as owner of this location. Food is ok. Not bad but not exceptional either. I like the BBQ chicken flat bread. Only thing I have issue is it's always cold back in the bar area. Last time three tables were eating with our coats on. read more

Excellent service even though place was packed for lunch. Wife had chicken quesadillas and they were packed with chicken. I had dry rub blackened chicken wings. Never had any wings blackened. I would highly recommend you try them. read more

I stop in here a lot after work, and they are always very good to me. The restaurant is clean and the staff is super-friendly, which I appreciate as a person who dines alone more often than not. The menu is full of great choices AND they have a Coke Freestyle machine which means you can pretty much have any beverage you can imagine. Also, I took my parents here, and they liked it, which is an important test of restaurants in my book. Try the grilled shrimp, which you can get as an add-on to any meal for $4. Also try the prime rib sandwich, the santa fe burger, or any of the sharable apps. The music playing in the place is a particular treat - great classic rock. read more

Really sucks because I usually have great service here. Today we went in and we always get the sweet tea here. The tea they brought us was not sweet at all and the waitress just walked away after us complaining! Sick of rude people! read more

Part of a 20 people group for an anniversary party. Had a private room that easily accommodated us comfortably. Our server was excellent! Got every order correct, didn't forget anything, all meals came at same time. The food (I had the best sirloin I ever had) was great. Did I mention how wonderful our server was? Sorry I didn't get her name. Highly recommend. Many of us were from out of town, but I would be willing to travel back there. We thank them for make our day even more special! read more

I've never had a bad experience with the food or the service at Beef O' Brady's! They've always been fast, accurate, and the food is always exactly as advertised. Besides, they put up with my embarrassing addiction to fried pickles- No complaints! This is one of those restaurants that we mke an effort to take friends and family to when they visit... read more

Also, don't get the steak. It's very tiny and over priced. If you order it medium rare, you get charred shoe Leather!!!

The staff us great. The food is priced moderately. I go there for lunch at least twice a week. The food comes out fast and you always know that it will taste the same as the day before. Peru dosnt have much to choose from for lunch unless you want fast food or you have and hour and half to eat. read more

Really liked this place. My husband and I met with friends here and we had a great time. The only hitch was that our waitress was underage and couldn't serve us our drinks, so there was a slight delay on getting those. Other than that, everything else was nice. The food was good and the place has a pleasant setting with multiple televisions around so you can see what's happening with any ball games or anything going on. We had a lot of fun and will go back again. read more

Ordered wings to go and a side of mac n cheese. I asked if the mac n cheese was any good, girl said she really liked their mac n cheese. Picked up order, got home, wings were puny, not much different than fast food joint. Mac n cheese was like Kraft's 99 cent box of mac n cheese. Won't go there again. read more

worst beefs ive very been too. the food was bland and overpriced. i sent back my food and charged me for it. they dont even offer the dubliner on the menu. read more

Loved this place till last Saturday. The service was terrible - the server took an order and left, leaving the rest just sitting there, we were told there's no military discount except on Veterans Day, a woman asked three times for a glass of water. We were in a reserved spot for a party and we were rushed out because they had booked another party on top of us. Not going back. #treatedbetteratmcdonalds. read more

Great Place to eat. The staff was very friendly the food was good and the prices were fair. We will definitely return.
