    Yummy chili burger with beer batter rings.
    Lynn B.

    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!

    Shepherd's pie

    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.

    Rainy July 4th & the World Cup was on!  Cyclist from the Netherlands decided to stop by for a snack & to watch the game!

    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.

    Fantastic food, service, ambiance and libations. Bridgette is the host with the most.

Well... let's just say this is a tale of two experiences: the food? A solid 5 stars. Everything else? More like 1. So I'm meeting in the middle with 3. We walked into what I think was organized chaos. People were everywhere, but oddly... no one was sitting. Empty tables, no host in sight, and definitely no one greeting us with a warm "Hey, welcome in!" One of the guys at the bar casually told us to sit wherever. So we did. Eventually someone noticed us. The vibe? Loud, kind of messy, and definitely not what you'd call cozy. We ordered quickly, thinking we were being proactive. But drinks took a while, and the appetizer took about 30 minutes--which really set the tone for the 45-minute wait that followed for our shared entree. Apparently, it was "kids night," but I didn't see a single child. Also, the bathroom? Let's just say in gas station style clean. BUT--and this is a big but--the food was excellent. Big portions, full of flavor, and even better as leftovers the next day. So the kitchen is clearly doing something right. Unfortunately, the overall vibe just isn't my cup of tea. I like to unwind with a good meal and a cocktail--not feel like I'm in a live-action game of restaurant hide-and-seek. There are other spots nearby that check more boxes for me, so for now, this place is going on the back burner. Maybe we'll give it another go someday. When kids night includes actual kids.

    I don't like to give 1 star so I'll give 3 for the host who took my order she was kind. I ordered…read morenachos $37 and all it had was burnt chips with cheese and a few jalapeños. A tiny cup of quac and pico. No meat. Very disappointing. I heard so many good things about their nachos.

They have updated the bar and the dining room. The wood is lighter. The bar doesn't smell like old beer any more. We get there at 11:30. By noon, there's already a long wait. Service is friendly. The chicken wings are a top three rendition. We always order ours crispy. They stopped serving celery on the side a while ago. As a purist, I bring a ziplock bag of celery sticks. I say raise the price of an order of wings by 50 cents and serve celery again! The waffle fries are great. They have a surprisingly diverse menu with a big selection of beers. There are desserts, but I have never been disciplined enough to save room. It's cash only. This is the platonic ideal of a burger and wing joint. Set the celery sticks free!

Still consistently delicious. Large meaty wings and drummies, connected. Lots of sauce, to the point when you break them apart, there's a lot of splatter (I think I hit a kid with some sauce about two tables away). Service very good, prices comparable to other wing places. I asked my waiter how many pounds they sold on Super Bowl Sunday. He mentioned "between 18 and 19 thousand pounds!!!" Wow, double wow. Vast majority are ordered in advance and this year they cut off orders about a week before the game. This trip was a solo run for me. My wingmen were nowhere to be found. 4 very sloppy stars
