This place gets a 3 for the onion rings and only the onion rings. Otherwise I would've given this place either a 1 or 2. The atmosphere is fine: busy bar/pub whatever. We were seated immediately even though it looked like we wouldn't be. I saw that there were onion rings and I asked if I could sub them out for the fries. Don't ask that question. Answer is no. I found it annoying but it's not the reason for my less than favorable review. We ordered our burgers medium and both came to the table well done. (This was not a one-off occurrence, my boyfriend went there TODAY and the same thing happened). Again, I feel like if burgers are your forte, cooking them to temperature should not be an issue. BUT burger temperature was not the main issue here. The main issue is that MY BURGER TASTED LIKE LIGHTER FLUID. Gross gross gross. I'm glad the onion rings were there, or else I wouldn't have had anything. At that point I was too annoyed to say anything and I didn't want another burger so I sat with it. The onion rings are great, but other places make great onion rings, so I won't be back. read more

Had to wait for our ride to pick us up at train station so we headed across the street for Casey's - a pleasant surprise. A friendly neighborhood atmosphere. I had the buffalo shrimp appetizer and it was very good. My husband had the Mac and Cheese and thought it was good (but he's a Mac and cheese snob). The dogs, burgers, and fries looked delish and the menu had some interesting choices. I liked the fact that the pictures on the wall featured a local artist. A very pheasant way to spend a couple of hours waiting for our ride. read more

Casey's Tavern - Pubs Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

My favorite wings in the area - order them dry (instead of wet, tossed in buffalo sauce; if you must, ask for the sauce on the side). Casey's wings are consistently flavorful, tender, moist, crunchy, and always served hot (in temp). I love coming here just for wings and a beer. The burgers are wonderful, too, whether you eat meat or not, and many other things on the menu are very tempting, but don't miss out on the wings!! Casey's is one of my favorite spots in Ann Arbor because of them; it helps that I've always experienced friendly and efficient service. read more

My husband and I had a really strange and off-putting interaction with the employee who greeted us at the door. We came in for dinner with my mother and father-in law and the employee gave us a really hard time about whether my husband and I were planning on drinking or not, asking us repeatedly (we hadn't decided yet). Really he was just asking for our IDs, but wasn't being clear and it felt like a really weird interrogation. Then when he looked at my ID, he made some weird and inappropriate comments about my appearance, questioning whether it was really my ID or not. I understand the need to check IDs at the door and the importance of scanning for fakes, but this guy was a total jerk about it and it made us really uncomfortable, especially since we were there with my husband's parents just trying to have a nice dinner. I gave this review 2 stars because the food was fine, but that bizarre interaction with the host left a really bad taste in our mouths. read more

Known for one of the best Fish-N-Chips in the area but recently they have been failing at it. The last couple of visits have been disappointing. We asked for extra crispy fries and received soggy fish, and non-crispy, room-temperature fries. Other office colleagues have expressed the exact same sediments numerous times. Too bad. Hope they can fix the problem. read more

Super friendly staff. Very extensive menu. Excellent food. Everything we ordered was awesome. The sercice is excellent. I totally recommend coming here. read more

Casey's Tavern - Pubs Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

A great environment for dining out. Very Earthy and the staff embody the feeling of the restaurant. I have been in a few times and regardless of my business in the restaurant I was treated with the utmost respect. Waiting and kitchen staff are prompt. I ordered a Smoked Salmon salad that was to die for. The portions exceed price value down to the fries. The restaurant gets an A for layout as the booths give you a great deal of privacy. Not to mention the music choices are impeccable. A must for any tourist visiting Ann Arbor. You cant miss it, Casey's is located right across the street from the Amtrak station. Keep up the great work!! Dave Clair read more

This place is great. The food is always amazing. Best burgers in town!!! I like be the giant comfy booths. Always have good beer on tap. Sometimes the service can be a little slow but they are all super nice and when I'm here I'm not in a rush. read more

This is my favorite sandwich place in town. 'Casey's Favorite' is my favorite too... I had never liked rye bread before I had this. The meat, the bread and everything in the sandwich tastes really fresh and high quality. With the luscious fresh french fries and the wide array of condiments, its a foodie's delight. The place also has a wide selection of beers and an old-world charm to it. Bottom line: The sandwich was so effing awesome, it got me to downgrade Zingerman's rating by a star ;) read more

The food and beer are decent but wow, the hostess and waitress we so rude! From the moment our group stepped in the door, it felt like seating us was the biggest inconvenience and honestly, the whole dining experience was pretty off-putting due to how unpleasant they were the whole time. Sorry, but if you're looking for a place to spend and enjoyable evening, I would go somewhere else - there are plenty of other great places to choose from in Ann Arbor. read more

Unfortunately, I can not share with you how great the food was here. I called to place a takeout order from Casey's Tavern. Once they answered the phone, I was told by the woman that they were too busy to take my order and she asked if I would call back in 40 minutes. I responded that I would not call back in 40 minutes and the call ended. I understand that it is 8 pm on a Friday night (8:12 p.m. to be exact) but it is unacceptable to answer the phone and refuse to take an order then ask the customer to call back in 40 minutes (presumably at the restaurant's convenience). My rating reflects the complete failure in customer service by this restaurant. read more

I got a carry out order from here. I got the asparagus that was good but I also got a salad and could not eat it because most of the salad had brown lettuce (see picture below). read more

OK so parking is ehhhhh and the wait might be tedious, might be... Usually not so bad. But the staff is great and the food is better. One more time: The staff is great and the Food is Better. I come here on date night, me and my beau kiss across the table and laugh while townies recall their youth... Great drinks too. Can really enjoy yourself. read more

Seating here is ridiculous. You can show up with half your party of 4 and instead of them seating you they make you wait for everyone to show up, even though they have open tables that only seat 4. Best not to tell these idiots you have anyone else coming do you can sit and spend money rather than stand and be pissed. read more

This was not our first visit to Casey since we grew up in Ann Arbor but it will be my last. Today we had seven guest in our party coming from Vermont and Georgia. We were told that they could seat us at a table for five and a booth for two. While I would understand if the restaurant were crowded this may have been an option but it never was during our entire meal. They could have easily put two tables together allowing us some room and the time to be together. We can't be the only party w more than 5 people. It was thoughtless of Casey to leave 2 guests out. I will never recommend them to our guests again. Too expensive for their bar meals. read more

This is an excellent local pub and definitely worth your time and money! The prices are great, the selection of beers is respectable, and, most importantly, the food is amazing! The burgers are terrific and the fish of the day when I was there was an excellent salmon fillet paired with incredibly soft pan fried potatoes and perfectly cooked asparagus. read more

I must be a regular along with my fellow EPA oldsters as we are at Casey's at twice / month. Casey's Favorite is a favorite along with the best onion rings in the city. Service is great especially on Tues. and Thurs. Good conversation and very friendly. read more

This place was fine, nothing extraordinarily special. Our server was incredibly nice and the people shorted smile a lot but everything else was just fairly typical. I'm a little confused by their slogan touting cheap drinks and cheap food. I don't think I would ever consider $11.50 cheap for a hamburger! And I most certainly don't consider four dollars to be cheap for a bottle of domestic beer. Other than that though, it was clean, the food was tasty and I left with a smile on my face so I'm definitely not complaining. read more

Decent food but why cut off a Buckeye fan after 3 drinks.Not being mean but the bartender cut my friend off after 3 dragon berry vodkas.

This is really the only place in Ann Arbor I would consider a "townie" hang out. It's pretty small and often busy so be prepared to wait in line, especially on Friday night. Eat the Casey Dip! It's piled high roast beef with cheddar and horse radish sauce. Yum! I also enjoy the meatless joe and fish and chips. The wait service tends to be very direct and to the point, which I also dig. read more

This is my favorite pub in town. The fish and chips are great, and so is the meatless joe. There is often a small line, but it moves quick. This is what I consider a townie spot. Similar to most restaurants in town, it is smoke free. Try eating here. read more

This place generally rocks. Probably the best turkey burger I've had anywhere and a ton of quality food for your money. Very friendly service, although I will say every time I've gone something has been wrong with our order. However, I've never once felt aggravated about it as the server has always managed to be sincerely apologetic and fixed the problem ASAP. Wonderful, "local" vibe, completely unpretentious without being a "hole in the wall" dive (not that there's anything wrong with that!) Great food, great service, great atmosphere. A little cramped, but that mostly adds to the charm and energy. Definitely reccomended! read more

Some clowns will tell you Blimpy Burger has the best burger in town. Hood rats might tell you to check out Sidetrack in Ypsi. U of M nerds may recommend Quickie Burger on State street. These people obviously haven't been to Casey's Tavern. Casey's has the best burger in town. They cook it perfectly (medium-rare) every time. The service is also very good. -This place got even better when the non smoking law passed read more

Casey's Tavern--our top choice for burgers in Ann Arbor! Good service, good beers, endless ice teas and fun, casual atmosphere. Plus it's fun when the Amtrak trains pass by across the street. It's often jam-packed with locals and college kids--definitely call ahead to jump to the head of the line. If you've lived in Ann Arbor long enough, it's likely you'll run into someone you know at Casey's! The only negative is when we crave Casey's burgers on Sundays . . . then remember it's closed . . . :( read more

What a fun, local restaurant. Go during lunch, and you get the local, relaxed, down-to-earth crowd. Dinner's a more lively crowd. Their BLT is tasty but a bit dry, and I remember liking my dinner dish (my husband liked his as well), but we can't remember what we ate! Good, but not incredibly memorable it seems. Overall, a fun place to go if you want to get away from the main drag a bit and have a couple of beers over a likable, American dinner. read more

Was out last Saturday looking for a good burger after a hard day of moving. Sidetrack's seemed so far so we settled on Casey's. The hostess was very nice and we were seated immediately. I and my guest both got burgers, ordered medium. Mine was okay, hers was still moving in certain parts. The worst part was ultimately the service--the waitress just waited on everyone else who appeared to be regulars rather than bring us our bill after multiple trips past our table. There was also a guy at the booth near us who was very loud, perhaps mentally challenged, but let's just say it did detract from the ambiance for me. I ultimately see no reason to ever go here again when Ashley's and Sava's cook up way better burgers. read more

When I went there, the waitress made snide remarks that no one knew what to make of. This might be because the demographics were a lot older and we were undergrads. Still, it was unnecessary. The food seemed like average pub food, and the beer was not anything I couldn't get anywhere else. read more

Would stand up against any burger in Ann Arbor. Great, Great Burger! Order it medium rare with any 3 of your favorite toppings. The fries are good too! Very laid back setting. Good beer on tap. Can't miss here! read more

decent food, decent brews, good service & atmosphere. I have no real complaints other than the coffee wasn't that good. my wife says she would give this place 4 stars because of their superior mustard and condiment selection, however she is wrong. They at least have a parking lot right across from them (though metered) which is a rare thing in the downtown area. cool read more

I am a semi regular custom and I love the food and the service at this little gem next to the train station.

YUCK!!!!! Unless you enjoy things breaded and deep fried then done over and over to make it look bigger and better. I ordered fish and chips, got 3 pieces of "fish" after taking off all the breading there was maybe 6 bites, $12 95. And the onion rings what a joke, $6.95! This place is way over priced. I would have given it zero stars but that wasn't a option. Mentioned this to our waitress and she said she won't even pay to eat here because it's too over priced and not good. Guess we should have left when we first sat down and asked "what's good" and got the answer "um I guess the burgers" GROSS!!! read more

If I was on death row planning my last meal, the menu would read like this: Casey's Turkey Reuben w/ slaw Casey's Onion Rings If these items were not available at my local/federal penitentiary, I'd just go ahead and die hungry. Seriously, people, it's that good. read more

Really great burger and I really dig the towny atmosphere. It's slightly small and cramped but if you want a place in Ann Arbor that is unlike "typical" Ann Arbor, this is a refreshing change of pace. For once, casual IS trendy. read more

I adore Caseys. I love the burgers--best in A2 by far! The onion rings are so, so good! They have a wonderfully crispy batter and excellent flavor. read more

They're alright... They're fine... I thought their food was mediocre, so don't really know why they get such good reviews from others. We went around 11:30 am or so, a bit early for lunch, so they're not packed, but all the tables were taken, but they had booths still available. We had our daughter with us, who was about 10 months old, so ewe needed a high chair, not a booster seat, so we waited for a table. When we were finally seated, I ordered the salmon sandwich and my husband had a burger, since everyone talked so highly of it on yelp. My salmon sandwich was good, but not outstanding, and my husband's burger, according to him, was just alright. The bun was soaked with the juice from the patties and was falling apart, he couldn't even pick it up. I thought they usually toast the bun before using it for a burger, but they probably skipped that step...? Anyway, it was soft, soggy and very hard to eat. Had much better burgers elsewhere before, so we won't be going back. read more

Easy atmosphere where people and staff talk to you and smile. Good, consistent service. Tried the burgers and meatless Joe. So goooood!

My girlfriend and I visited Michigan for the first time. We went there for the Real Madrid vs Man U game. After the game we were hungry and couldn't find a good place to eat . We look and look, around we found this Vegan place. We try to buy a burger and I had no luck. They only had Veggie burger for some one like me that's a no no. We keep on walking and find this this place we came in it was nice full of good vine the host was really nice we sat on the bar. We had little time before catching the bus back to DC. The lady behind the bar took my order, I liked her way she treat it us. When we got our food, the experiences got even better. We ordered two burgers with everything on it and they were the best burgers. This is a must go place if you want good food and good Poole. read more

Casey's has my favorite sandwich, 'The Favorite' - definitely give it a try. Great bar selection and excellent staff.

I like this place because this is exactly what a bar should be. There is no weird items on the menu, no crazy or extensive drink list, this is just a standard bar done right. You can go here and get a good sandwich, some fries and a beer for a decent price. Its not the best bar in town, but its a solid choice where you know what you are getting and receive friendly service. The stand out for me was the chicken wings, so far they are the best chicken wings I've gotten in Ann Arbor. read more

Great burger and onion rings are the best I have ever enjoyed anywhere! The location is vintage AA, a casual atmosphere and appropriate service. Great go to place when you want a good burger and Guinness on tap! read more
