    We found this hidden riverside oasis in Bridgewater adjacent to the business district in Beaver. The back "Kelly's Island" area was very peaceful and laid back. I enjoyed a simple margarita on the rocks, which was your typical mix concentrate with well tequila. There was some live steel drum music playing when we first arrived. It looked like kayak and paddle board rentals were available nearby. The front/inside of the establishment is very much an Irish pub. Kelly's offered the ideal Sunday afternoon vibe!

    Awesome

    We had a great experience here and I can't wait to come back! Beautiful outdoor beach setting. Fun bar, really nice servers. We drank while we were there, left and went to more bars and then went back for takeout wings. So glad we did! I will be back soon! Full disclosure - the outside space is the selling point. The inside is old school local pub and probably not a place I would hang but as long as I can be outside, you will find me there allll day!

    I think if you come here in great weather for the beach sand bar to probably drink & pretend you're in Florida, but you're actually sitting by the Beaver River you'll be happy. I had lunch here on a fairly busy Monday about 11:45. My server, Cynthia, was doing a great job covering multiple tables which all were seated within probably a 20 minute period. I had 2 Coronas with lime that were ice cold. She brought me a water & a refill without asking. I had 6 bone in dry Cajun ranch wings. They were ok, but I couldn't taste any ranch & the Cajun stuff was just sprinkled on. I had 3 mahi mahi tacos. The fish pieces were a decent size, but there was hardly anything else in them except a bit of lettuce & drizzled of pineapple salsa sauce. So I'd venture to guess food is not the stand out feature here. It's definitely a unique place with actual sand & palm trees & hibiscus. That's the draw coupled with drinking by the water. A fun hang with friends if you're thirsty rather than hungry. The inside is a divey dark Irish pub. I most likely would never go in winter or bad weather.

    Does it seem odd to have a tropical paradise in the middle of Beaver County... Not if you are a Hawaiian born Parrothead like me. Kelly's has a spacious tropical paradise overlooking the river, where it feels like you're sitting in your buddies backyard ready for a few Coronas. There is tiki torches, backyard games and sand under your feet if you sit out back (I think its a more traditional Saloon setting inside). We had a group of four and ordered our drinks as soon as we sat down. It was a while before our waitress showed back up as we were ready for drink refills and to put in our lunch orders. I went with the bbq bacon cheeseburger and my wife went with a salad and my brother had the fish tacos. My burger was good but needed a bit more bbq sauce. My brother was happy with his fish tacos but my wife was just a bit disappointed in her salad. Overall the setting was fantastic with lots of things to keep you occupied because you'll need to keep busy, our waitress was painfully slow with everything she did and it wasn't even a busy afternoon. Prices were o.k for what you got, but be prepared to spend some time there, so just enjoy and have an extra beer, Aloha

    Monday - snow crab leg night. Fantastic!! The outside environment with sand and real palms, transports you to a beach vacation but you are beside the Beaver River. Drinks were reasonably priced and the crab legs were great. Don't be in a hurry and you will be happy.

    Blackened salmon, mango slaw, and fries.

    Wings are good!. Ambiance is great, inside or outside…read more Service is very good. The waitresses are excellent. If you order wings always ask for extra sauce, the wet flavor wings come out too dry. They're too skimpy on the sauce for some reason ?

Not sure why I expected anything different when we went there today. Today's experience: Our server took our order in a very reasonable timeframe, but we waited close to 50 minutes for our food to arrive. And this was on a weekday; they were busy but not packed. No one came by to provide any kind of explanation. When the food finally arrived, my fries were cold and we had to ask twice for refills on our beverages. We had to go to the bar to get utensils and napkins because the server never brought them. As we were leaving, a couple at another table had just gotten their food and had the same problem-- they needed utensils and napkins. This isn't the first time we've experienced very slow service at Patrick's Pub. I don't know what the issue is, but I'm sorry to say I probably won't ever go back to Patrick's for a meal.

It was the best place I ate on my weeklong trip in August, and it was once again the best place I ate on my ski trip this past weekend. A lot of pubs have burgers, fries, a few sandwiches, that sort of thing. It gets repetitive. O'Donnell's has that, but really knocks it out of the park with their main courses. You get the pub atmosphere, and good hearty food, but so much more variety than most places, and it's all delicious. Perhaps most impressive of all, they rotate in a variety of specials, and those are really good too. Their kitchen staff is versatile and skilled. The first time I went, I had a grouper special, with rice and vegetables, all cooked really nicely, not dry at all, and well flavored. Dessert was chocolate Guiness cake with Bailey's frosting, which was as good as it sounds. A few days later, I got the blackened chicken alfredo. Although not quite as gobsmackingly impressive as what I had the first time, it was still a really solid pasta dish. Five months later, I was back, and went with another special, the Berkshire pork chop, with homemade mashed potatoes as the side. Both were really good, but the mashed potatoes - best I've had in years. And carrot cake for dessert - not quite as unique as the Guiness cake, but another really good dessert. It also has a great atmosphere to dine in and really good service. Allison was working at least the first and third times I was there, still remembered me five months later, and was just as good at taking a phone-in order this weekend as the in-person ones earlier. They have their regulars who go there for the food and service, but also make newcomers welcome. Excellent staff. People around town recognize their food too. On Saturday, they were closing a bit early due to the snow, so I took my takeout up to Yough River Brewing (which welcomes outside food). At one point a man asked if my food was from O'Donnell's, and I said that it is, and a few minutes later I'm talking with his friend, the mayor, who loves O'Donnell's as well. And no wonder! This would be on my regular rotation if I lived nearby.

Well, today was the day, and we had high expectations based on the photos and other Yelp reviews that we saw before dinner. It, unfortunately, did not live up to our expectations. The outdoor seating area is nice, and the entire restaurant gives off an upscale Primanti's vibe. We ordered the Pabst burger, Fried chicken sandwich, buffalo wings, and kids' chicken tenders. The French fries ended up being the favorite part of our meals. Everything else was so-so. Warning on the wings... They came out incredibly hot. I ate everything else in my meal and came back to them, but they were still almost too hot to eat. The service was solid, and the food came to our table quickly. I understand that "Tap House" is directly in the restaurant's name, but the patrons at the table next to us were enjoying Happy Hour heavily, and their conversation, during our time there, eroded into a significant amount of loud cussing. It definitely made me second-guess whether I would go here with my kids again. I think we'll give it another try, and I hope that today was just an off day.
