The best burger in Cleveland like... hands down. This is a dive bar but man is the food there amazing. When you pull up it looks like a dive from the 1960's or a small Soviet bloc, not many windows and just a square little building, but you come inside and the people are inviting and friendly and the food is out of this world. I got the smash burger onion rings and some loaded tots and it was delicious. Their toilet has an awesome Andrew Warhol version of Misney there which is just a chefs kiss added touch to this place. 5 stars hands down read more

Great consistent food. Staff is always super friendly and helpful. Their smash burger is great. They also have an amazing breakfast menu too!! Their Irish coffee is legit!! read more

Ambiance - it's a dive bar like the name says, but a NICE dive bar. Lots of TVs and also scarves representing soccer teams. Burgers and fries were tasty and the service was good! We went at a slow time (noon on a Saturday), so we had table service. You might need to put in your orders at the bar during busier times. read more

We were in the mood for a good burger and we saw that this place had been voted "Best Burger in Cleveland!" So we figured we'd try it out! If we were not looking for this place specifically, I know we would've driven right past it! It's a standalone little building and the only markings I saw outside was a little sign that said BAR. But it was 2 o'clock on a Saturday afternoon and there were several cars in the parking lot, which is a good sign. The inside is really tiny. There's a large U-shaped bar and about six tables. We looked in the menu and opted for their famous Smashburger. It is $14 and comes with fries. It is a double patty cheeseburger. I did not want a burger that big so I opted for just one Patty. They said that was no problem, but the price was still the same. I also got onion rings, which were $3 more. The food came out really fast and you could tell it came right out of the fryer because the french fries were super hot! This place is called a dive bar, and I guess it is - but on a Saturday afternoon, the place was filled with all kinds of people. On one side of us was a family with little kids. On the other side of us was a couple in their 20s. And then the rest of the place was filled with people from every age group. I have to say that the music they play there is fabulous! But back to the food. The burger was seasoned really well! It is a smash burger, but they're still able to make it crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Our server was really good. She did not hover, but she was around to see if you need anything. Depending on the vibe that you're looking for, if you want more of a bar vibe, you should go in the evening, but we were happy to just be in a relaxed little joint with good food. They opened up another Crowley's in Painesville so we will probably have to try that one too. read more

I can see why they were voted the best burger in Cleveland. My mom and I loved them. They were the best smash burgers. We loved them and the crock of chili. The waitresses were also very nice and accommodating. The place is decorated really cute. Check them out. read more

Dive bar with OSU game going Saturday. Chips with Lawson chip dip for appetizers. Also cheese curds with dip and beer pretzels. Of course we had beer , limited selection on tap, but Guiness is available as well as GLB Christmas Ale Smashburgers were large and delicious , Probably should have split with my wife read more

Crowley's - The greasy receipt only. - Burgers Near Me - Eastlake, Ohio

I was pretty disappointed with my experience at Crowleys. I really wish they had more tables as my friend and I had to share a table with strangers. The servers were nice. The prices are just insane. We ordered cheese curds for an app which were very good. Then I got the smash burger and tater tots (which were an additional $3). The serving size was small, and the burger was just ok. read more

I tried Crowley's last night for the first time, and it was great. I didn't dine in the restaurant but the food was still warm by the time I ate it at home. I loved the cheese curds & the spicy sauce that came with them! The smash burger was great too. It was really big so I ended up only being able to eat half of it. This place will certainly be added to my rotation when I'm in the mood for a burger. read more

Crowley's - Smash Burger and Shoestring Fries - Burgers Near Me - Eastlake, Ohio

So I hate to have to post this, but the last few times have been very disappointing. We were just there on 7/26. It was good to see the owner on his hands and knees cleaning a cooler. The intention was to move the inventory around that was more convenient for the staff. That was a long time coming. The coolers were packed and never looked appealing. Not sure why our bartender had to ask about the change? We sat close to the door at the bar. Not sure where the occasional weed smell was coming from? It doesn't bother me, but others get offended by it. Maybe it's not good to have this odor while people are eating dinner? Does the staff look the other way on this? Not sure what our server's name was? We are not regulars. She seemed newer, but I did recognize the other. And when our server spoke loudly her voice was annoyingly squeaky, mini mouse like. She's where our problem begins. I ordered the hot dog special and asked if I could sub tater tots for fries. She said sure. When I received the check, I noticed a $3 upcharge for the tots and questioned it. Without even thinking about it she replied with this, "I told you there was a charge" and immediately disappeared from behind the bar. I asked my wife what she said when I gave my order. My wife's response was that she said "sure" and never said anything about an upcharge. She had all the signs of a habitual liar. No thought was put into her answer even though our initial conversation took place about 45 minutes earlier. Now to the restaurant. Fries and tater tots are the same price on the menu. The hot dog special comes with fries, so why is there a $3 upcharge? Fries are $7 and tots are $7. Again, why is there an upcharge when they are priced the same? The tots didn't come with Cleveland ketchup, so why? How many other customers are surprised by the $3 charge? Typically, hot dogs come with chopped onions, so I'm not sure why I had to pay .75 extra for a side of them? But I was also charged $1 for a side of mayo. Are you kidding me? A condiment has a price? It wasn't listed on your menu previously. I can't help but wonder. Since you guys claim to be a dive bar, wouldn't serving packets of mayo be more fitting? Now I know I could have taken all of this up with the owner, but a lying bartender would have defended herself and I wasn't in the mood. After thinking about this for a few days, I felt this was the best way to address it. When you nickel dime your customers, you are not a dive bar, you are cheap owners that only care about your finances and building more establishments. Now my only regret looking back was leaving about a 14% tip. I should not have left $3 and change. That way maybe the liar could think about the upcharge? Or is she even competent enough? Now on a previous evening, I ordered Cevapi. It wasn't very tasty and served on a pita. That isn't authentic Croation. I understand here in the USA, it might be acceptable. But when I can get it at Rose's in Eastlake on lipinja and the sausage has outstanding flavor, I think Crowley's could be a little more authentic to your heritage. Your heritage is displayed on the front of the building, isn't it? And your sausage did not have good flavor. Family of your ownership group asked me what I thought of the Cevapi. They didn't seem surprised when I told them and their response was that the sausage wasn't fresh, that's why the taste wasn't that good. Wait a minute, not fresh? Are you buying that much bulk that you can't provide fresh food for your customers? And the pita? Their was response to that was that some people serve it that way. I've been to the Eastlake Crowley's a few times and if you like biker bars with sleezy bar staff, that's the place for you. I went to Lake and that shouldn't be a good reason to support your businesses. I would be looking the other way. We have decided that we will never go back to any of your establishments in DTW, any of your so-called dive bars or your new venture in Irish cuisine. Irish? I wonder what will be authentic there? read more

First time here and I'm sure we'll be back. We split the Miracle League Loaded Tots and the Smash Burger. Yum!! The service was great as well. We told the server we were splitting the tots and burger and she brought the burger out already cut in half and served in separate baskets with the fries. read more

Standard bar food but with a ćevapi - a Croation small sausage. Rather nothing for vegetarian or pescatarians. Cute spot. Poor beer selection. Very very cold. Good wait staff. read more

Love this place, Divey, yet fun, great decor and very nice folks. The food was great, very tasty and plentiful, and the service was fast and thoughtful:) read more

Love this place. Best burger in all of Cleveland area, maybe the whole nation. Great dive bar with excellent service.actually all the food is good. read more

It's a small place, not a lot of tables, and was loud. But, well worth it. Our waitress was super friendly and, since it was our 1st time there, strongly recommended the the kegs and the smash burger. So,... We started with the Irish Potato Kegs as an app. Real good. Enough for two to share. Then, we got the double smash burger. Sounds like a straightforward burger. However, this was a Cheeseburger as God intended it. It was absolutely fantastic experience. Easily the best burger I've ever had. You deserve to go get one of these burgers. read more

Great please for lunch. Definitely a local establish with a full bar and handful of tables. Place was clean, good vibe, and friendly waitresses. Excellent beer selections and full liquor bar. Came for the smash burger and it didn't disappoint. Excellent. Fresh with great flavor. Cooked perfectly. We also tried the Cheesesteak. It could of used more flavor but it was fresh and packed with meat, cheese, and veggies! Good enough that we took one to go. Plenty of TVs. Handful of people enjoying Keno. read more

We came to Crowley's in Painesville for burger week. We had a waitress who was fabulous. They didn't have the burger that was on the menu so we settled for something else, but the waitress made it up to us. The atmosphere was pretty cool and we will definitely be back. read more

Visited Crowleys this past weekend (3/9/24) to experience the legendary smashburger and it did not disappoint. We devoured that burger in minutes. It was greasy and the mac daddy sauce was killer. Had extremely quick service and loved the ambiance of a classic dive bar. Will be back! read more

Decent dive bar with very good smash burgers. The only reason for not giving it a full 5 stars was because the bartender charged my friend for both our meals instead of asking if we wanted separate checks which we had wanted. read more

We had The John Wayne burger and the bologna sandwich. The burger wasn't good. The bacon tasted old and the meat had a gamey taste to it. The bologna sandwich was very good. We also had wings. They were tasty but you get 10 and some were very tiny. Mini wings?? 2 adult beverages and onion rings for 70.00. Don't think we will be back. read more

My dream bar / restaurant. Looks divey from the outside. Inside is small but clean, including bathrooms. Bartender was attentive and friendly. Food was incredible. Got wings and their smash burger. Both amazing. They were happy to mix wing sauces. Burger was two thin patties larger than the bun served on with the perfect crisp. While both the wings and burger were A+ the fries were to die for. A shoestring type thin fry however perfectly crispy and seasoned to perfection. Truly a cut above the rest. Full bar. All the usual suspects but also had seltzers and high noons. Plenty of TVs for the games. Can't wait to return. read more

Best smash burgers I have ever eaten! The cheese curds are amazing also! Great service and great atmosphere.

When we saw that they were rated number one for hamburgers we had to try it. This is a "dive bar" with amazing food. I don't even drink so I would never find myself in a bar. HOWEVER, this place is the exception. They are hands-down, my favorite hamburger and favorite wing location. Their mix of meats in their Smashburger is absolutely divine and I am a total fan of their lemon dry rub wings. Absolutely finger licking good. There are so many places to get food around us, but this 35 minute drive is worth every second. read more

This was my first time at the Eastlake location. Had a terrific Smash burger with fries and onion rings. Definitely my favorite burger spot. The server was very nice and attentive despite the fact that the bar was full. My only negative comment is that the volume of the music was very loud. Good music but we were right near the speakers and couldn't hear each other talk read more

Awesome! I loved it here! Got the smash burger. Will order it again! Yum! Service was stellar. Fun vibe!

Excellent smash burger. Attentive service. Funky vibe going. Lived up to the hype of dive bar

My family really like this place , I'm meh . I have been inside before but it's to small for me, I mean it's tiny bar that was originally designed to serve old men , shot and a beer. Now they have no take out wing nights to fill their 50 seats could be 60 but not much more than that and a parking lot that boasts no room in the inn. The only time I could get in there on wing night was when I went super early and I got two kinds of wings meaning to take my leftovers home and the waitress looked at me and said we were not allowed to take leftovers ( not all you can eat) home with us so I got only one extra order so my husband could try the other kind . That was the last time I ate in there as there was never any room after I got out of work . But anyway good luck to them I won't be back as this above is not worth it and they don't get back to customers that purchased over 75.00 that day. Oh well. Me nana from Ireland would say places like that you can do without . read more

Food is awesome and good atmosphere! One of the best burgers in town! Definitely coming back every time I'm in Cleveland!

All I can say is Smash Burger!!! I like the style of food that comes out of this Irish pub. The fact that they use government cheese let's me know that they were a part of that era and have a different understanding. Lots of child comfort foods like Bologna sandwiches, hot dogs, etc. but outside of a burger I'm not paying for anybody's bologna sandwich LOL. I do recommend you try if you are ever over in that area read more

We were kind of out in the country and looking for a place for lunch on a Saturday. This place came up for good food so we went. It sure was not much to look at from the outside but the lot was full so we took that as a good sign. It was listed as a "dive bar"...maybe I would call it upscale dive bar! Nothing fancy but clean and full of life and happy people. What more could you want?! We ordered smash burgers, chicken wings, and a fried bologna sandwich. All were fantastic. We had shoestring fries, onion rings, and tots with our meals. All great. Great service too. Great meal at a great place. I'd go back if I lived here. read more

Excellent food! Try the Smash Burger! Friendly staff and food arrived quickly and hot for a table of 9! Reasonable prices. Ambiance casual and relaxed with lots of TVs and music. Parking can be a little tight so be careful with the corners of the building! Excellent menu choices! Would highly recommend read more

The burger was very nice and fantastic I love this restaurant wooo whioolloklkkkiooooo

Great Wings, Great service, just a fun place to be and watch sports. The bartenders are funny, great people.

I wanted to do Cleveland Burger Week with my boyfriend and we decided to come here. We were super happy to find this place. It was such a small and charming place. I loved that it had super chill vibe because I was wearing sweat pants lol. Of course, in the honor of burger week, we both got their smash burgers. Lucky for us, it was wing night so we both grab 2 orders of 10 wings. My boyfriend got bbq wings and I got Nashville hot honey wings. We were amazed of how fresh and crispy the wings were. The bbq sauce was tasty. The Nashville hot honey one was spicy but not to the point you would not be able to enjoy your wings. The sweetness of the honey went so well with the spiciness. I could not stop myself from eating them. Moving to the burger, it was delicious. There were 2 burger patties. I thought the cheese complimented so well with the patties. The burger was a bit wet though because of all the sauce. Nevertheless, the burgers were so good that we both inhaled them. We also got fries and they were yummy. We had to thank Cleveland Burger Week for helping us discover this place. My boyfriend and I already planned our next trip here to try different things. read more
