I've been coming to Clarke's Bar before it was Clarke's Bar. The food is really good and the waitstaff are all super nice, (Heather and Stefanie).The only problem is my wife and I will not come here if Rosena is working. Rosena has a real condescending & nasty attitude. The owners need to keep her in check before she ruins their business with the way she treats the people. read more

The atmosphere here is very warm and fun! I started coming here alone to sit on their wonderful patio and to just unwind after a long work day/week, and I have met some of the most wonderful people. The bartenders and the patrons are so friendly, social and some silly and make you feel very welcoming. When the weather is nice you can sit outside and watch the numerous hawks flying overhead which is a sight to see! Bridget and Desi are such wonderful friendly owners also. Check out the woman's bathroom and observe the beautiful fresh flowers! Food is excellent and the drinks are affordable and made perfectly by the fantastic bartenders! Whenever I am in a bad or good mood I go here and always leave extra happy :o) read more

We came into Clarke's unannounced after our high school reunion and Lindsay absolutely went above and beyond. As the only bartender to about 50 people, she was delightful, patient, and an absolute service dream. The bar had the perfect amount of space, an awesome digital jukebox, and darts! Thank you Lindsay for being so awesome to us! read more

This is another 5 star review based on my personal experience here. My first and maybe only since we're just visiting. Yelp helped me find this place. After a late evening arrival at LaGuardia and slightly stressful rental car drive in unfamiliar territory to Yonkers, hubby and I wanted a laid back drink and meal that didn't mean dressing or even cleaning up much due to the time. Other yelp reviews made it sound like Clarke's was our place. Thanks to the Google maps directions app, we arrived in just a few minutes. A small little restaurant/ bar warmly lit with white Christmas lights~ very welcoming. We bellied up to the bar. A mixed crowd of what appeared to be regulars, but we soon learned the great bartender treats everybody that way. Tommy said he only works Wednesday and Sunday (?).his day job is firefighter. His personality probably added a lot to our experience. A great listener and he had his own good stories. He seemed to know everyone there and we felt we had a new friend before we left. He was very accommodating to our requests too. We had big appetites so we each ordered burgers. I got the chili burger with beer batter onion rings. Rob got a cheese burger with fresh cut steak fries. They were delicious and filled us up They had a decent draft selection. Radio was playing good 70's music and caddy shack was on one of the tv's. We were sooooooo mellow when we left. Wish this bar was in my neighborhood. But then, I would probably spend way too much time there. If you're in the area, looking for a chill bar, check it out! read more

This review is long overdue. I came here with a co-worker to have a quick bite during our lunch hour. Being that its during work hours, I'm always reluctant to go to suggest bars, but looking at a menu, we decided to give it a try. Atmosphere: There were tables away from the bar area, however, the area was small. (The place is definitely geared for bar patrons) Food: Great irish pub food. I had a burger, my co-worker had shepherd's pie. My burger was awesome. My co-worker's dish was to his liking. When I get a chance, I'll try some dinner. read more

I really like Clarke's! The owner, Bridget, goes out of her way for you. As well as the STAFF! The Pub is clean and the food is very good! Safe neighborhood & the regulars are super friendly. I moved to the area a few years ago and was looking for a place where I could go withOUT being part of the "meat market" ... people don't bother you - but they ARE friendly. I NEVER had a bad experience at Clarke's! This place is an IRISH PUB! (Which MEANS the restaurant IS connected to the BAR! Duh!! So those of you who are putting it down, I suggest you go somewhere else - this isn't a club in Manhattan w/ velvet ropes! Pffft!) BUT if you are looking for GOOD FOOD, CLEAN RESTAURANT / BAR to watch the game (they have SEVERAL TV's) or listen to music whether you want to be alone or chat w/ the locals or make new friends ... (meet New people from around the world,) THIS IS THE PLACE! At my recent visit to Clarke's, the owner, Bridget was running the place solo. It was July 4th, rainy, & I wanted to watch the World Cup. I met several people from their Bike Riding on the trails from the Netherlands! Bridget was quick w/the drinks and food - very friendly & attentive! I just made my 25 year old daughter a new fan of Clarke's! Gina S. read more

Kitchen closed on Sundays... small bar with small parking lot. Prefer Saw Mill Tavern

in my mad hunt for something, ANYTHING to eat near my hotel just the other side of the Saw Mill, I finally found this place. It will not wow you with food (standard, sub-par bar food). It will not wow you with vibe either. In fact, it's not a place to go to be wowed on any level. it's a place to go an grab a few drinks, catch the game maybe, but mostly get away from whatever - and do it in a place with regular folk and good service. and we all need that place read more

Stopped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. I've lived in the area for a couple of years now, but found this place by accident. A couple of weeks ago I was wandering around in my car and smelled a wonderful aroma of grilled meat. Looking around I spotted this bar and restaurant and immediately made a mental note to return. Having nothing else to do in the afternoon, I decided to drive over and give the place a whirl. It's a bit dark inside but very nice. There is a bar area and a small area with tables. I grabbed a stool and was offered a menu and a newspaper. Sweet! I decided on the Cajun burger with fries. It was a delicious burger with a spicy sauce. The burger was nice and juicy without being a total mess. The fries were very good as well with a bit of malt vinegar. Definitely a place I will go back to. read more

I went here to play darts the other night. The atmosphere is pretty cozy and the layout of the bar is nice! The staff was great and the food we had was spectacular especially for bar food. I highly recommend the wings or the garlic bread with cheese. If your looking for a place to get affordable drinks in a cozy atmosphere to watch a game and eat some grub this spot is perfect for it. read more

What a nice little bar! Homey little piece of ireland in Yonkers i stumbled in here on a Saturday night and was pleasant suprised. The bartender (who I believe was one of the owners) was really nice. The place had a comfy homey atmosphere. Tbey even had a fire place. Goid place for the aging party goer. Really nice! read more

Had the Australian burger. It was pretty good. Very juicy but not sloppy. The burger has a fried egg on it. Anyway, I'll just say that the burger was excellent. I also ordered fries. The fries were a little underdone. The cool thing about this place is the fries are actually cut potatoes. Maybe even hand cut. Because they were undercooked they had a very oily film quality to them. If they had allowed another minute or so they probably would have been perfect. One thing I don't like is the lack of soft drink selection but hey, it's a bar. I can't remember what I paid. It was around $11.50 for the burger, fries, and soda. Long story short, it was a very satisfying burger at a good price. they have several TVs, albeit small, with sports and a juke box. I'll probably return to watch some sports and try other foods. I recommend the Australian burger. read more

The menu links were dead links so I decided to drive over regardless and check it out. Having been traveling all day was looking for something to eat and work on a few work emails. Order a drink and asked for a food menu. Was told the kitchen just closed. It's 3:00pm why does a Bar&Restaurant close kitchen. There are 14 people in the bar it's not like it's empty. It didn't say anywhere that they close kitchen at 3:00pm kinda of disappointed. read more

Had the fish and chips with the house salad and a Brooklyn IPA. Everything was fresh and delicious. They use cod for the fish and chips. Fresh and flakey. The salad with house dressing was a real salad. Not a typical bar salad. Can't wait to come back and try the burger! read more

I've been coming here for lunch for about a year now, and I Love it here! Their paninis and chef salad are delicious! Bridgette is the Best! Friendly & knows how to keep her customers happy. If you're looking for a cozy spot, with good food and drinks, then this is it. read more

Dirty bar filled with dirty old locals. Beer on tap was flat, and decided that the unclean bar is not worth eating at. Given two stars because the Bartender was very friendly and nice but will not be coming back. So many better options in the area, you can most def skip this place read more

Great place for a quick cocktail and a bite. I'm partial to their hand cut french fries and burgers. It's a great neighborhood spot, friendly people and always welcoming. read more

Great place with even better staff and customer service. Truly felt at home and can't wait to go back!

Poor services and also noticed little creatures running around. Do not eat here. Also the owner has no idea of customer service and I'm surprised they are still open for business. read more

I just had a burger with fries and it was spot on.. The man working there was nice and attentive.

We came to celebrate the holidays here and had the best time. We had our own private room for dinner and dessert, then continued the party at the bar. The bartender Lindsay was the best; extremely efficient and friendly. With its great prices and local charm I would recommend this place for casual drinks or for an organized event. We will be back! read more

Sort of indifferent hence the middle of the road review. The bartender spoke to a handful of regulars and would answer you if you spoke directly to her but she had to be called a couple of times to ask for things because she was glued to the TV and you always felt like you were interrupting her show. I love that the fries are real sliced potatoes but they were soggy not crispy. My boyfriend ordered a burger which apparently he's had before and thinks is good. I didn't eat it. I had an appetizer sampler. The wings were good. The chicken fingers were cold and chewy and the mozzarella sticks were soggy. The potatoe skins were good. Real potatoes, real cheese and real slices of bacon but they got burnt under the broiler so the edges were black but the middles were good. Overall just eh bar food read more

The nicest people ever. (Owner Bridgette and bartender Jon) clean little bar with great bloody Mary's. John chatted w us and was soooo funny. Great joke/storyteller! Nice little stop read more

This was my first time here but I will come back again the next time I am in town. This is a local bar with local people. The food was surprising good for this local bar. I had stuff potatoes and wings and they were good. I had the Westchester sandwich and it was very good. If your looking for a relaxed bar and eat, drink and watch TV, give it a try. It's not fancy, but nice enough. The locals are funny but salty so not fit for kids. John and Susan were very nice to this out if towner feel welcome. Thanks read more

Australian Burger w/Beer Battered Onion Rings was Phenomenal. Sam Adams on tap, so this Boston Boy was happy. Small bar area with dinner seating as well. Highly recommended if in the area. read more

Outstanding for relaxing with colleagues or getting rowdy over a game. Bring the kids, have some fun.

Been to Clarkes A few times and its always been a pleasant experience. Bridgett the owner is kind and works very hard running the place. The burgers are great and they have a full bar and a wide varity of beers. All in all a nice place clean and a good time. read more

great crowd patrons are always friendly and entertaining... Waitress Geri is a doll, she has the best stories you can sit and listen to her for hours. Bartenders are great. Stephanie especially. Food is ok. Wings are great they need to step up the fries a little. Westchester is good too. I am giving one star for only one reason the owners should not be behind the bar taking tips. They make money off the mark up of the alcohol. My message to Bridget is: "STOP STEALING MY CHANGE OFF THE BAR OLD LADY" read more

Was visiting my daughter today. After a fun day of shopping was looking for quick dinner before heading home. Clarks came up on GPS and reviews looked good so we decided to give it a try. It turned out to be an awesome choice. Are server could not be more friendly. She paid special attention to my 18 month old grandson and he loved it. Helped my daughter choose something from the menu that wouldn't burst her diet. Food was excellent!!! Very reasonably priced. Was the perfect ending to a great day. I would give them 10 stars if I could!! read more

Small bar/restaurant with great food and service.The only complaint was there didn't seem to be any air conditioning only ceiling fans.

Comfortable and very friendly bar and restaurant. We ate at the bar and had a very nice conversation with the very friendly and accomodating owner of 12 years. The burger with blue cheese was delicious, as well as the steak fries! I would definitely go again and would recommend trying this friendly, neighborhood restaurant! read more

I do not normally do this but I had to in this case. I came here for lunch a few weeks back and the owner Bridget was working behind the bar. She insisted that her food was "brilliant" and "gorgeous" so I chose to order a burger and fries. The burger was ahhh ok not how she described and the fries tasted like they have been soaking in oil for a year and still not cooked. It was not the food that was the most disturbing part it was the atmosphere in general. Not only were the customers a bit raunchy for my taste but the owner herself was. I am not a prude by no means but I do not enjoy listening to a middle aged woman make sexual gestures to people and then saying forget "desi" whomever that may be. The music was a bit loud for a lunch crowd. On lunch I look for peace but then again it is a dive in the middle of a residential area. I looked at the other customers food and to be quite honest theirs did not seem appealing to me at all. I did not complain to the owner because she was very confident about her food and when I was going to she made a remark "you can't complain" I felt a bit bullied after that. *** when I go into a bar or when anyone at that fact goes into a bar we like to talk about our problems but in this case all we did was hear about hers. I listened to her talk completely horrible about a neighbor across the street and how either him or his girlfriend wrote a YELP review then bragging that she got it removed by saying a disgruntle employee well YELP I HOPE YOU DO NOT REMOVE THIS BECAUSE I AM NOT A DISGRUNTLE EMPLOYEE JUST SOMEONE TRYING TO FIND A NICE PLACE TO HAVE LUNCH WITHOUT DRAMA. It is a nice place but it needs to be remodeled and fix up the menu and maybe they will be a little more busy. read more

It's been a few months since I went here, but I had promised once I got Yelp that I would write a 5-star review because of the amazing service, homelike atmosphere and top-notch food. This is definitely a gem of an establishment. I highly recommend Clarke's and hope to return soon. read more

It's rare I write reviews but I couldn't help myself . I come here for a while after work great place. It's a neighborhood pub people are friendly bartenders are cute. Or should I say were cute. I am not expecting a sports illustrated model but the past week I went in and thought it's become a gay a half naked man on a calender and the bartender looked like RU Paul. I mean I like drinking and staring at girls assets not searching to see if the girl had an Adam's apple. She was loud and rowdy I thought it was football Sunday and she was the LINEBACKER other then that check out the place read more

great place to grab a beer and some food. The food is slightly above par . Also not a bad place for a night cap if you live in the area

I am not a bar person in general. Rather like sitting at a table with service. However, I am equally comfortable sitting at the bar or sitting at a table at Clarke's. The single best food I've ever had in a bar/restaurant. The owner, Bridget, is sometimes tending bar and when she is, she makes great suggestions which are always on the money. I've been there numerous times and can honestly say, I have never been disappointed. In fact, I can't recommend it to enough people. read more
