Joe of Kingfisher
Rita O.

The wings were great! The service not so much. As the night progressed it got a little better but you can stand at the bar outside for quite a while before they acknowledge your presence. We went to listen to the band Kingfisher they were awesome. It was a great night. Kudos to the workers that cleared the water away and wiped the chairs and tables after the storm so we could enjoy the band outside. Will definitely return.

Came in because of the press the wings were getting, and I was not disappointed! Ordered the hot garlic parm and the FLB wings. Both were very good, nice size, crispy and plenty of sauce. But the FLB wings were something special. I have no idea what they mix the sauce with, but it was unique and delicious! Outside of that, the place is a dump and the service is slow. Perfect dive bar with really good wings!

Great local bar with better than average food. It's actually way bigger inside than it looks from the outside. It's always a great place to meet up with friends. It can get pretty loud inside when busy, so probably not the best place to go for an important conversation. They have multiple TVs around. Regarding parking, you can park in the shopping center next to the bar. You'll notice a good number of cars there- many are there for the bar. On tap they have your standard beers with one or two different beers, around 5 or 6 on tap, with more options in bottles.

Loaded fries

Loaded fries minus sour cream and the chicken and cheese quesadilla. The food was good. Dart boards are in a good spot too. Outdoor patio is huge.

When you live in Florida and fly "home" this is the place to go. The atmosphere is everything that's right about Cleveland...laughter, music, wings & loaded French fries frying in the kitchen, a great selection of beers on tap and the owner working her butt off to make it all happen. It's everything you want in a hometown bar. I was gifted a Great Lakes Brewing company Christmas Ale pint glass from the owner and let's just say other than being with 2 of my favorite people on earth it was the highlight of my day!

Despite other reviews, this needs to be noted. Gerald, who will suck you in, will gain your trust. Then when you don't notice, he'll add things to your bill. A few days ago I ran into someone I know, they said "hey man, thanks for buy me the beer" and I said I did not buy them a beer. This made me check my check. And without even a doubt, look at what was "added" to my brunch burger and Gerald said "I am not familiar with the system." He then asked me to leave because I questioned him. Look at these extra charges on "accident"

Did not seem happy to see new customers, just wanted to serve the "regulars". Do not need to go back, will just head to Razzle's instead.

We took my husband to Hop Brothers Brewing Company for Father's Day since he loves visiting local…read morebreweries, and this was our first time here. Before we had even ordered our food, we were already talking about coming back because everything on the menu sounded so good! We sat indoors at one of the high-top tables across from the bar, and the atmosphere was very open and welcoming. They also have a really nice outdoor patio that looked like a great summer spot. We started with the pickle chips appetizer, which was a great way to kick off the meal. My husband sampled a couple of their beers, including the Sunny & 60 hazy IPA and the Blood Brothers blood orange beer, both of which he really enjoyed. For dinner, I ordered the 12-inch Italian hoagie, which was huge and came with house-made chips and a delicious French onion dip. My husband chose the Black-n-Blue Burger with truffle fries, and my older son ordered the bacon double cheeseburger with regular fries. My youngest son went with the pan-seared salmon dinner, served with green bean casserole and risotto. Our server, Anthony, asked if he'd like a Caesar salad before his meal arrived, and we're glad he did because it was outstanding! The food was excellent across the board, the portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. What really made the experience stand out, though, was our server Anthony. Since it was our first visit, he was incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions, offered recommendations, and made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. Hop Brothers Brewing Company exceeded our expectations, and it's easy to see why people keep coming back. Great food, great beer, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be returning!

The space is huge and has a dog friendly Paw-tio in the warmer weather. The service was good. We each had a beer as well as onion rings and fried pickles chips. The food and beer were ok. We arrived mid afternoon on Saturday and had no problem parking or getting a seat. Not long after we arrived many more people started to arrive. I do feel there menus needed a cleaning. There were sticky and had food residue on them. I did appreciate the sign about driving responsibly and contacting staff if you need assistance getting home.

We stopped here on a recent road trip for lunch and enjoyed the wings so much we made the time work…read morefor a lunch stop on the ride back. Located just 15 mins North of I80, you can't go wrong. Over the years I've had Fat Head's beer and most importantly their wings and can say I still haven't found an equal to their house-smoked whole chicken wings. They are seasoned with a house-made dry rub and slow-smoked and come in a variety of sauce & rub options. To me their Original Buffalo is perfection. Big portions, snappy skin, just the right amount of smoke, heat and flavor. Our group tried other varieties - honey chipotle, smoky bbq, Alabama white and spicy garlic parmesan (we all put orders in for three of each flavor at $11). The honey chipotle is probably my second favorite, but everyone in our group became quick believers that these wings were well worth the detour. Beer wise you can't go wrong with their West Coast Style Head Hunter IPA, IBU-Sive IPA and Hop JuJu Imperial IPA. They make a lot of variants of IPA's and other styles, but those are my all-time favs from these guys. The staff was friendly, the inside of the location was spacious, with a long bar, lots of table options, clean bathrooms and plenty of room to spread out and indulge. I'm so glad I brought wings back home to PA. Even reheated these wings will make your co-workers jealous in the lunch room! A trip to Cleveland should not go without a wing stop at any Fat Heads location! Thanks guys!

Fat Head's Brewery is one of the classic originals from the beginning of craft beer in the USA…read more It's one older cousins loved before I was old enough to drink, I always remembered the fat man on the labels they collected. This place is an experience; this is their main production facility, which also has a huge bar and restaurant space. It's so well planned; sit wherever, order food at one place, beer at another. They have bar seating, big and small tables, high tops, etc. Even with all the variety, it was still pleasantly loud and busy. At the entrance, you can go to the merchandise area, which is big. They have all their canned selections ready and cold to go as well. To the left of the bar is a self-guided tour hallway, where you can see a lot of the brewery and their huge wall of major beer awards from over the decades. We sat at a high top near the bar; the bartender was so efficient with our beers, there were so many to choose from I only wished we could've stayed longer. It's family friendly with games. Prices are super reasonable for the continued quality and arguably strong beer styles. If you're a beer fan, whether new or a veteran, this is a must-visit regional powerhouse. I look forward to visiting again soon.
