    Funnel fries ! We killed these sooo good.
    Charity M.

    Best little hidden gem in Traverse city. Cold beers, best wings, fresh pork rinds and funnel fries. What else can you ask for ! We ate there x2 in one weekend. We came here after our dinner out on the Main Street. This is a local bar and grill so do not expect really fast service there was 1 waitress ( she was great) . So if you want fast and not the relaxed atmosphere this is not your place. If you want to feel like you're at CHEER's, this place is like eating at your best friend's house. Probably even cheaper than your friends. Do not over look this wonderful little bar, it's beats any Bar in Traverse city!

    The rude server that we had to put up with all night.
    Emma I.

    Came to Brady's for a birthday outing. Left extremely unhappy due to the world's rudest server. Do you even know what customer service is? This woman in the striped sweater with the greasy hair called our group "those bitches" audibly while pointing. Who wants a person like this working for them? I recommend your establishment does something about this. Your bar has never had good service in the times I have been here. I don't recommend this place to people who expect kindness and good service. I felt extremely disrespected. Don't give these people your money.

    Food is incredible and service is great! Pork rinds are so good and so are the sandwiches and drinks! Will be back!

    It was Friday and I was in Traverse City. Needing a place to eat I thought of Brady's and Fish Fry. It was exactly what I needed, quick tasty and delicious.

    Could be better. Should put a bar area by the pool table so that you can drink and play pool.

The slight cherry tang invthe bbq sauce created a very appetizing taste. The wings were cooked perfectly and I highly enjoyed them. I ordered the Pork Chop dinner ($29). This is a local michigan-raised pork with a cherry apple chutney. The pork chop was excellent and the cherry apple chutney was a great addition. It came with mashed potatoes and a cucumber corn medley. They both were very good. North Peak Brewing makes their own Root Beer. Honestly that why I chose to come here. Thankfully the Root Beer was excellent. The service was friendly, but not very efficient. I think they are short staffed because the bar tender was also my waiter and he was busy bartendering! Overall I still rate this a 5 star review. The Wings, Pork Chop, and Root Beer were all excellent and I would return for any of them. So yes I would Return.

I haven't been here for years, and was so happy to see that the menu still had my favorite Monte Cristo and beer cheese soup! Prices are high because it's Traverse City, so that doesn't bother me and you get the soup for 5 bucks when you add it to a meal! Nice! We started with the calamari - small portion, but it was hot and fresh and plenty for 2 people to share. I also had a small house salad, and added white cheddar for $1 (that was a good suggestion from our server Kylie!). The pesto ranch was great too. I love their main IPA, they do a great job, and it is always on the menu (versus seasonal). I love how this place is laid out, there are lots of wooden booths that feel quiet and private. The only reason for taking off a star is the parking. It's incredible that for a large restaurant, they share a small lot with multiple businesses. Everything else is great and you will appreciate the consistency and the spaciousness of this restaurant!

The 1/2 pound burger is topped with Fried Cheese, Fresh Jalapeño, Pulled Pork, Cole Slaw, Haystack Onions, Bourbon BBQ Sauce. The burger was very good with a few caveats. The pulled pork is very average and doesn't add anything to the burger. The fried cheese was very good and did add to thd burger. The bourbon bbq sauce was meh and didn't add much. However the meat itself is excellent and I think a plainer burger would have been better. The fries that came with the burger were very good. I also ordered a Chocolate Shake and it was fantastic. the service was very good and everyone was very friendly. Overall a solid 4 star review. Would I return? Absolutely. Definitely for the shakes and I very much believe a simpler burger would have been better.
