I now remember why I don't come here, so do yourself a favor if your looking for good food, head elsewhere. If your looking for crap wings for 20 cents, to each their own is all I can say. I came here tonight apprehensively, and regretted it as soon as we walked in. The tap is not cool enough, and the food is just bad. I'm talking worse than I even can remember. The wings are just atrocious, sadly. I will probably head back here in 18 months or so when I forget how terrible my last experience was, and will update my review then but if you can avoid this tourist trap at all cost. read more

The reason why I am giving 3 star because the Cajun chicken sandwich is really disappointing. It's basically over burned chicken stuck in a piece of bread. They forgot give me dressing so the sandwich has NO FLAVOR AT ALL. I live 25 minutes drive away there's no way I drive another 25 minutes away just for the sauce and I can't let them deliver for a sauce either.... wings are always a good choice, if you like spicy, try their cry like a baby!! read more

Croxley's Franklin Square - Cajun chicken sandwich - Sports Bars Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

I've been meaning to come to Croxleys for as long as I can remember and I'm so glad I finally got around to doing so. We came here on a Saturday afternoon to try out their wing special which is 40cents per wing. You can get boneless for 30 cents. Let me just say that I've had my share of wings in many places but Croxleys takes the win!! The wing are cooked to perfection and the honey BBQ sauce is delicious! I'll definitely come back here on game nights with friends.. read more

Honestly I've been coming here for years! I love this place. My friends and I usually come here for wings and beer. They have a lot of nice deals like .30cent wings and the wings are honestly Incredible. They have amazing flavors. One of my favorite flavors is Korean BBQ its a must try! Also the beer selection here is incredible. The menu for the beer is huge! Staff is friendly and the service is quick. I always get a seat right when I walk in. The atmosphere is that of any bar. Definitely come and try the wings! read more

I can't speak for the Farmingdale or RVC locations but Croxleys of Franklin Square has gotten GREEDY. This place had the best wings on Long Island. I work in the restaurant industry I'm highly aware of the skyrocketing prices of wings. Let it be known, $27.50 for 20 wings may seem high, I believed the wings are so good I'd pay double that if I had to. But they changed their wings a couple months ago to save money. I've had better frozen Wing-Zings from Restaurant Depot than whatever raccoon ankles they're selling as wings now. And for the same price of $27.50 lol. I'll never be back. Greed ruined this place read more

I kinda wish there was a 3.5 star option because Croxleys is definitely not a 3, but I'm not quite sure it's a 4 either. There's a great beer selection here and most of the items on the menu (Wings, Irish Nachos, Mozzarella Sticks, etc.) are all on point. The Reese's Peanut Butter Pie is legitimately one of the best things you will EVER have in your life. I'm not exaggerating or overstating. It's eff'ing ridiculous how good these things are. With that said, I have reason to believe that the Croxley's staff is hoarding the last stash of these things in their basement because I've reached out to numerous companies to no avail. Oh by the way... Yeah, I'm talking to you, Croxleys.. Don't think I didn't realize that you tried using smaller wings on 10-cent wing nights during the summer. I'm guessing someone called you guys out on it because they magically became bigger two months later. I'm not pissed - Just know that I know. Staff is usually very friendly. The only time I make a face is when the girl at the front purposefully overshoots the wait time in hopes that you make her night easier by simply leaving. The wait time is basically 65% of what they tell you. Speaking of that front desk, can ya stop with this miserable "every member of your party has to show up" before you can be seated. Every group of friends has that one moron who's always late because he's waist deep into a 2-hour Youtube binge. The crowd can be a little... 'suspect' on 10 cent wing nights. But hey, when ya make things easy and affordable, everyone will start drifting in. read more

I was harassed multiple times by a table of drunk male patrons at the restaurant. The manager barely did anything about it. Not a welcoming place. read more

Great spot for every game. You can't beat 10 cent wings + 60 beer selection. TV's abound and every seat has a good view. Beware, your tab will creep up quick if you don't pay attention. Sweet potato fries are great but clock in at $7. Some of the beers on tap can creep above $12 dependending on what you like. For the basics though, best deal in town... Update I just went to the Rockville Centre location and prefer it way over the Franklin Square spot, primarily for parking, though the restaurant section is also larger and more open which makes it a little nicer. Also, make sure to look for the Honey-Hot wings - they're not listed on the 10cent wing selection menu because they're actually 20 cents, but they are well worth the upgrade. read more

Love this place. We have been coming to this place for years. We used to come for the wings but we have since tried so many other items. In addition to the wings, we get the Irish Nachos. They tend to be dry so I like to dip them in the blue cheese sauce. Their loaded potatoes are great too - how do they get the potato warm and melt the cheese but keep the sour cream in the center cool! Mussel pot, I heard they are the same as (or supplied?) from Waterzooi. We usually get the Hoegarden flavor and add some hot sauce. The buffalo sauce flavored one is overpowering. Their burgers are amazing! We usually get their sweet potato fries. Beware, the charge extra for swamping it out for regular fries. Also their French Dip sandwich is on point! I think they have recently gotten strict about their wing deals - each person has buy a drink to get the wing deal. It's not going to break the bank, it's just annoying Bc if you don't want to drink alcohol or a sugary drink, you will be charge $5. read more

Wow....so disappointed. The Croxley's I once knew is no longer. I will not rant on this one, but simply say, the service was TERRIBLE....ordered a few tacos and fries and they took 45 minutes to come when the place was not busy! When they arrived , the tacos were wretched and the fries were cold and soggy. Can't make it up. Sad to see where this place has gone to. read more

I love Croxleys. In my opinion, they have one of the best boneless wings out there. They're a nice size, and always perfectly sauced to still keep them crunchy on the outside. I've also had their pulled pork which is good, but not amazing. I've definitely had worst though. When I was here last, I tried the Irish nachos which had the potential to be really good, but you could tell that they were prob done and left around because when they came to the table the cheese was a bit hard, making it difficult to eat because when u pulled one fry out, a huge clump came with it since the cheese wasn't loose and melty. Next time I come, I would like to try the macaroni and cheese. I always eye it on the menu but never see anyone order it so I'm always hesitant...I hate being disappointed by macaroni and cheese! Lol At this location, there is always a strange smell in the back room...that's my only complaint. read more

Came here for the wing special last night- ordered the medium bone in wings along with the Korean bbq. Both were fantastic - extra crispy, covered in sauce. I wish the place was bigger, there tends to be a linger wait on wing night, but it is definitly worth it. There is a large selection of beers on tap, which is always a plus. read more

Croxley's Franklin Square - My order this evening that ended up I the trash. - Sports Bars Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

Great food - lots of beer and good folks. We popped in this past Saturday to check it out after a long time while running errands and were pleasantly surprised to find out there is a Brunch!! It was great and Jessica the bartender was very friendly and attentive. All errands got done on a full belly and better attitude! read more

we tried the 10cents wings on Tuesday, it was so hard to chew,old meat, and the waiting time was quite long... The beer selection is greattt , and the irish nachos and curly fries were quite good. All in all, though the wings are cheap, but it's just not worth it. for 30 wings, 2 shots of jager, 1 hogoblin, 1 sex on the beach , 1 coke, 1 irish nachos,1 curly fries total 60 bucks. read more

Things have not improved since my last review 3 years ago. What happened??? This was a weekly staple on mine. Stopped by last night for a quick bite. The place was empty, though it is the summer not everyone wants to sit in a dark bar. First thing I noticed, the beer menu. Alot of the old faithful favorite staples were gone. Second...we wait forever to place our order, keep in mind its not packed or busy, I would say less then half capacity. We wait and wait, our waitress says the kitchen is backed up. We wait some more, part of the order shows up. Then the wings show up and they were old stale, covered in sauce and cold. Then our appetizer showed up again, which we had already received earlier. Third- the bill.....jezz louise. 2 beers, 8 bbq wings, 12 hot wings and irish nachos.... almost 60 bucks. The finale.....sick as a dog this morning. This may have been the last hurrah croxleys =( read more

Not the worst food I've had but so completely generically average that I don't feel it should even get an average rating; if that makes sense. You can get the same quality, quantity and service at Applebee's, Friday's, Chilis... The "Chips" of fish & chips were really regular old fries. Even though on the menu they are literally in quotation marks "CHIPS" and even though when I asked the waitress who assured me they were the "you know, like, the big French fries" yes, I still got fries. The wings came in a soup of cheap hot sauce. They were over fried or more likely fried several times. And I hate to bring this up but I got very very ill that night. I do not have hard proof that it was from their food but instincts tell me that it was. They do have a craft-ish beer menu that might impress someone who just started drinking craft beer. Long Island at its most average. read more

This is my go to spot for amazing chicken wings and nachos!! Add the huge selection of craft beer and if this is your thing then you'll be in heaven!! Love this place go there all the time! Keep up the great work Croxley's!!! read more

So this establishment claims to have a 21 and over policy just to enter and eat however the last time we visited this place we saw a toddler sitting at the first booth by the entrance. The hostess refused me and my girlfriend service claiming it was too busy and they didn't want to risk me getting her drunk. When we pointed out the child at the table they said he is with his parents and they "trust" them. Maybe its just me or the nasty vibe we got being the only "minorities" in the place however this situation did not sit right with us. Either way enforce the policy for all or revise it. P.S. - Fix the nasty faces and attitude or maybe that treatment is reserved for a select few. read more

Me Drink Beer. Croxley Many Beer Have. Me Like Drink Croxley. Yup. This is a true Ale House. And the same thing always happens. Bartender:: "What can I get for ya?" Me:: "Uuuuuuhhhhhhh. Hmmm. Lemme get erm....I'll have the uuhhh...." Bartender:: (laughs) "Do you need a minute?" Me:: "Uh huh" Then I finally decide what I want and then I'm told if I mix it with another beer that's good too. Then I'm confused all over again. But these are all good things, folks. These are all very very good things. I just can't see someone walking out of a place all pissed off, "This place sucks!! There's too much goddamn good beer!!" The last time I was in there I think I saw something that said taco night. Three tacos and a beer for $6 or something? Don't listen to me on that, I could be wrong. But if there is a taco night, I'll be there soon. read more

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. 10 cent wings! (Though you do need to order a beer with your order. Not to complain because they have many many fantastic beers on tap. You can either go with a heavier stout/porter to cool down the spiciness or a lighter IPA if you don't want a heavy beer taking away from your ability to eat as many wings as possible.) The wings are awesome and I would suggest a mix of BBQ and spicy. The hot is not very spicy, though one step under their spiciest makes it so that it makes eating wings almost unenjoyable. The minimum for each order is 15, so be wary of what you choose. They do not allow taking home leftovers otherwise I'd take home so much that I would have a lifetime supply of wings and would be eating wings right now instead of salivating while writing a review. The wait for a table isn't bad though waiting for the wings took over 40 minutes. My friends who go frequently say that that's not usually the case. At least the service is quite good. read more

An institution that has not lost sight of what has made them great. They continue to provide the best beer list in the area and turn out quality food. The wings are second to none (especially if you order them extra crispy). You cannot beat the specials (if you can get a spot). The rest of the menu is excellent too. The burgers and sandwiches are usually something we get too. The beer list is overwhelming but don't be afraid to ask for suggestions. I recently began sitting down at the bar and have only really started noticing how nice the bar truly is. Ye its a little small and in the summer you wished they had outdoor seating. But if you get a spot at the bar, well you won't be complaining. Looking forward to my next beer. read more

Croxley's Franklin Square - Irish Nachos - Sports Bars Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

The only upside to this place is the beers.. and even they don't taste right sometimes.. the taps don't always taste fresh. The service is only good on the weekends when they have 36 bartenders on staff. During the day... they have one bartender who is very unpleasant and rude. She served me multiple times and is honestly ruining that place. People sit at the bar and expect someone pleasant.. smiling... happy to be there.. They need to get some new bartenders in there. The wings are overrated. especially wing night. They are over-cooked.. dried out.. go elsewhere... read more

Amazing choice of beers. Wing night is amazingly priced and the atmosphere is phenomenal on big nights for the World Series or other huge sporting events. Overall it's a great sports bar. Has food for everyone which is a plus. read more

Croxley's has officially ruined me for wings from anywhere else...and for any type of diet I attempt once going there is a possibility. My boyfriend started going here with his friends about 3 years ago and I was always so jealous because you needed to be 21 to get in on the nights with wing specials (which is M-TH 10cent wings!). Once I was of age and was able to go, that was it! The wings are absolutely amazing, granted I can only handle the mild or honey bbq, my boyfriend always gets the hot or on occasion, the cry baby sauce and they never disappoint. They were voted the best wings in Long Island for a reason! They always have the perfect amount of meat on them, never greasy and always nice and crispy and they always listen to how you want them--whether you're a sauce lover or would rather them with a minimal amount it's always granted by the friendly wait staff. In addition to their amazing wings, always get the Irish nachos! Perfect pair... Granted, I'm obsessed with their wings clearly, but I have tried a couple of other menu items and everything is always tasty and made to order. Since they are a bar after-all, they do have an amazing supply of beers on tap and bottled. They also have a bunch of interesting beer cocktails. Personally, I always opt for the cider... Okay, that's all for now, I must go now and get me my wing fix! (side-note, we used to always go to Hooters and loved their wings, now when we go back there we have no clue how we thought they were good!) read more

I love getting my fix of Croxley Ales House on Sunday afternoons when it is nice and quiet. And not to forget the Sunday brunch (12pm - 4pm), which includes several choices of brunch dishes with unlimited Croxley Blondes, Bloody Marys, Mimosas, Screw Drivers, Soda, Coffee Or Tea. My favorite among them is the Marinated Steak & Eggs (two eggs any style, fries) for $15.95. Prices may seem a little high for a brunch but the steak portion is very generous, and did I forget to mention very tender and delicious. The steak is marinated in some type of soy/teriyaki based marinade which is very yummy. And don't forget to order the sweet potato fries. All I have are big smiles on my face when I eat here, and I leave with a full stomach and plenty to drink. And if you're still hungry, they also have 20 cent wings on Sundays which are very good also. Service is good here as the waitresses are very attentive and always made sure our glasses were filled and whether we needed anything else. I love this place!! On other nights, if you choose to come during 10 cent nights (Monday & Wednesdays), this place can get very very packed. Expect to wait at least an hour if you are looking to sit at a table (there are only about 15-20). Otherwise, hang out at the bar, order some wings and one of their 60 ales and lagers on draft. One more thing, you MUST be over 21 to enter so don't bring the kids. read more

We just love this place. It's a hidden gem when it comes to bars. It's a cool place to hang out. Food is great, as well as beer selection. The bartenders are attentive and so easy going! I highly recommend their wings! And the nachos are also a must,,,, +++++ read more

Not impressed. I'm used to the much larger locations (Smithtown is my fav, Rockville centre is OK) so I was shocked to walk in to see it's smaller than your local pub. Very small, cramped and loud blaring music. It was difficult to hold a conversation. Our 20 minute wait turned into about 40, which we spent outside inhaling massively unhealthy amounts of second hand smoke. Finally we got inside and seated! Our waitress started off ok. We ordered wings and sweet potato fries, the wings were small and over cooked, I guess for 30 cents I can't really complain. -- The Monday & Wednesday wing special is 20c/boneless, 30c/classic with a $5 drink minimum. -- The sweet potato fries were actually pretty good, but the sauce it came with was vomit-worthy. The waitress then forgot about us after giving us the check. My friend and I literally joked about dining-and-dashing, if we weren't honest people that's exactly what would have happened and nobody would have noticed. We even attempted to give the check to the hostess when she returned to her stand but she couldn't be bothered with taking our money -- instead she just shook her head "no". I wouldn't come back here. read more

The food here is mediocre at best. The hot wings were un-hot, un-meaty, and very dry. The pulled pork was also dry underneath the sweet bbq sauce. Redemption points given for being served on a good ol' enriched flour bun...but that's faint praise. Like, really faint. On the plus side of the ledger, the fries, slaw, and pickle were good. The beer list itself gets 4.5 stars, although the "specialty" beers (e.g., Duvel, barley wines) were a bit overpriced. As noted elsewhere, the service was efficient and friendly (weekday lunch). Only Amex is accepted. If you want a good beer, this place is up near the top of the list. If you want good food with your beer, look elsewhere. read more

Excellent wings for an even better price. Where can you beat 10 cents a wing. The honey BBQ wings are amazing as well, but a little more expensive. I had so many wings here that now I don't wanna think about wings for another month. They were that good, I had that many. Decor gets very loud and temperature gets hot as people crowd in. Uncomfortable seats. Must try the nachos and sweet potato fries, extra gravy. Wide range of beers on tap, most I've never heard. It doesn't get any better than wings and beer for a great price. read more

They charge you $2.00 to add honey to their BBQ sauce. I could care less about $2. It's just manipulative price gouging and it's messed up. It's a matter of principle. They charge you 500x the price for an 1/8th of a teaspoon of bulk bough, restaurant depot honey. read more

Croxley's Franklin Square - Wing Night!!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

I went with friends after work. They had a very good selection of beers and the dining area was large and accommodating. We went their during the happy hour, but the scene did not pick up until we left around 8pm. Remember kids, we have to get to work the next day. The bar food was made fresh and did not have the taste of waiting under a hot lamp. The beers were not cold. That is a GOOD THING! It was room to cool temps. That is the way beer should be served. read more

My friends and I decided to try Croxley's after hearing rumors about their mind-blasting buffalo wing deals. After my visit, I can officially validate the hearsay. If you come during the evening you can get their boneless or traditional wings for $0.20 and $0.30 respectively. The one caveat however, is that you need to order at least $5 worth of beverages. My friends ordered some several well-known craft beers while I settled for a diet coke. I found my drink lacking in carbonation and a little too saccharine (it tasted more like flat Pepsi). My friends however, found the beers to be up to par and were satisfied with the brews. As for food, we started the night off with an order of Irish Nachos which were pretty tasty and several orders of wings. We tried the traditional Hot, Korean Barbecue (KBQ), Italian Stallion, Cry Like a Baby (CLB), and the boneless Jamaican Jerk. Our favorites were the Hot, KBQ (though a bit salty), and the Italian Stallion (like the Hot except with Italian seasoning). The Jamaican Jerk wasn't that great and a little too sweet. The boneless texture is not very good in general and I would recommend going for traditional style wings. The CLB wings were definitely a big surprise, as we all underestimated their lethal power. I would say these wings are as spicy as Buffalo Wild Wings' Blazin', but in a different way. CLB doesn't burn that bad in the beginning, but within several seconds your lips are going to be on fire, and the wasabi infused in the wings will cause your nose to run like Niagara Falls! I didn't particularly like the strange taste of the CLB wings, but then again I was in too much pain to be bothered by it. It definitely lives up its name, as we couldn't finish the 10 we ordered! All in all the experience was an average one. The staff are very friendly but the actual restaurant is quite cramped with not much available parking. The wings were good but not as tender or tasty as the BWW wings. My review might be a bit biased since I didn't try the beer, but Cicerones would probably appreciate the extensive list of ales, stouts, and lagers. read more

i cant give this place better or worse then a 3. i've been coming here for over 3 years now, was 2 years straight of every monday with a group of friends, now its a bit more sporadic. but when we first started out, the wings were great, nice, had meat to em, and worth it, even on a non-wing special night. after time, you could see the wings change from good, to terrible, back to mediocre. its unfortunate because they had a great thing going. it doesn't hurt their business though. and its understandable in order to make money on those nights, you need cheaper wings. come for the beer selection though, one of the more extensive ones on the island, do not expect to find bud light, or coors products though. the only bad thing about the taps, they're almost NEVER cold. so why is this not getting 1 or 2 stars. 5 of 7 of the waitresses we have dealt with are amazing, and almost all the bartenders are great. read more

My experiences at Croxleys (some of this applies to other locations too) have always been one of two scenarios, every single time, various days of the weeks and times: A - 1) Try to find parking in the neighborhood. Spot found. Can't park there, Found another, Cant fit. Found parking. Ok good to go. 2) Walk inside. Too crowded at bar, hour wait to be seated. 3) Walk out. B - 1) Try to find parking in the neighborhood. Spot found. Can't park there, Found another, Cant fit. Found parking. Ok good to go. 2) Walk inside, too crowded at bar closest to door, walk around to the side of the bar with actual seats. 3) Get ignored. 4) Order drinks. order wings. wait 25 minutes. need another drink, no bartender. 5) Eat wings with hardly any meat on them. They've got a pretty decent beer selection, so I'll give them credit for that. My only advice would be to avoid any type of wing night (scenario B), or else you'll be looking at a super long wait, dismal service, sub-par wings, and an obnoxiously loud atmosphere (as opposed to just dismal service, sub-par wings, and just a regular loud atmosphere). read more
