Yelp has the closing time wrong, they are open until 11pm if not later everyday depending on day of the week.

Dark and cramped inside but serving some very delicious food. I try to go when its possible to sit outside.

This is a burger, pub food and beer place. It is small, this bar is to the point and has a great bartender. Local dive bar that doesn't explain what or who it is. My whole group tried the burgers and loved them, I had the quesadilla. Only con for me is I wish I was asked them what I wanted in it because it just had cheese when it came out, I like it filled with veggies. Overall, we had a good time here and were served by a great guy. I would return. read more

This place used to be good, quality control went down the drain in the last year. They either overcook ur burger or make it so raw it's falling apart. The onion rings are basically half of the onion fried, no care for thin slices, all around a bad experience. This used to be my favorite burger spot now im not coming back after these past few experiences. read more

Great local and locals' spot. First-rate nachos, sliders, fish & chips. Disappointing fried clams (too much breading and undercooked breading). Still, I'd gladly return. read more

Great place Burgers and wet wings amazing Super value Can never be disappointed here read more

Best service, the fish was extremely fresh and delicious and reasonably priced. I will definitely be returning

The jumbo panko shrimp basket I had was decent, nothing I would order again, but it wasn't bad to be sure. I came more for a beer & the Irish flavor & both if those were what I asked for! read more

See all

Not a fancy place, it's in a basement of a house! Menu is on a chalkboard, the place is small, the tables could be more comfortable, but, I believe these things make the place so special. I am giving the 5 stars for their burger... perfect! One of the bests, I've ever had, and I am very demanding in regards to burgers! I've been there several times, and I was never disappointed! Their French Onion Soup is very good too. If you are looking for the perfect burger just give this place a try! read more

Cute little neighborhood spot with decent prices. Worked in the area 2.5 yrs and never knew this was here until recently. It is one of my coworkers new favorite spots so a bunch of us went for lunch. Ambiance leaves a little to be desired but isn't terrible - very "home"-y. That makes sense because it is literally in the basement of a home! Service was pretty quick and attentive - no menus, it is written on a chalkboard on the wall. Food was good - burger was huge and cooked medium rare how I asked for it. Bun was a little overwhelming. Onion rings were awesome, def get an order for the table to share! Beers were about 4-4.50/ea which isn't bad! A welcome change and much less pretentious than Rye Grill & Bar. read more

Just stopped in for lunch. Had a corned beef sandwich, and a Jameson's on the rocks. Why do I mention that my drink was on the rocks, you ask? Because this local, neighborhood dive, not only charged me $9 for a Jameson's, but added a $2 charge for the ice. As for the corned beef sandwich, they should change the menu and call it a fat & gristle sandwich, as there was little actual corned beef to be found, but the greasy fat was in abundance. I'd give it a single star, but the server was pretty good. read more

This review is based solely off customer service/ambiance. My husband and I went in at 2 pm on a Friday after reading the good reviews online, and stood there waiting to be seated. And stood there....and....stood there. The bar was full of older men and nobody acknowledged us although several looked over at us, but the bartender was too busy, I guess. Weren't sure if we were supposed to seat ourselves, so we walked out. 2 booths (of about 5) were occupied and the place was so dark and dingy that I didn't mind walking out. Old school is one thing, shabby and rude is another. I guess they're only friendly if you're at the bar or if you're a regular. read more

It was a 5 dollar burger that was 10 ounces and cooked to order. Very tasty. I would go there again and so should you the wings could be more spicy tho read more

Awesome neighborhood spot. Divey atmosphere. Great food. Very reasonable prices. Great spot catching up with friends.

Kelly's Sea Level Pro's: Food is great! Great neighborhood feel! Love the Prime Rib special! Appetizers are delicious! Con's: Wish they had better seating, booths are VERY tight! read more

If you are looking for great bar food, strong drinks, and great prices, this is probably the best place around within a 15 mile radius... Kelly herself is the sweetest and very personable, Al behind the bar is one of the funniest people I've ever met, and Jerry is sure to bounce around and make sure you feel at home. To keep it short and sweet for you yelpers: I've had yet to disappointed here, and you won't regret pulling the trigger and going here. Get the burger. read more

Kelly's is a great local pub in the area. Some of the best burgers that you'll ever have can be found here. Accepts credit cards, highly recommended. read more

Gorgonzola salad, cheeseburger, fries and a pint of Guinness, Nothing makes me happier. Kelly's is a Rye institution and the Maguire family made it that. Burger and beers can't be beat, family friendly and a great place just to catch a quick bite. read more

Kelly's Sea Level - Bars Near Me - Rye, New York

Place is just awesome. Hole in the wall which gives it such character. Food is good and the drinks are better. Can't beat this place. Have the brisket, it's delish!! read more

Great bar food and local "joint" to gather at for a casual evening. Best burger around..and go for the sweet potato fries. Friendly locals. Highly recommended. read more

Great pub food, brunch, good selection of beers on tap, and solid drinks. Great service as well. Total dive bar feel, but the patrons are mostly locals and everyone is always friendly, including the staff. There's an outdoor seating area that I believe is open even when it gets cold. read more

Its a true dive but a great one. The seating is kinda tight and you get close to your neighbors. What makes this place is the burgers they are the best - my son is a burger connoisseur and this is his favorite. He always swore that Tieran's in Stamford was the best but after eating here once he was sold. I always get the steamers to start which are awesome better than most high end seafood restaurants. The wings are also great just the right amount of kick. My wife and daughter aren't big fans due to the decor but the food totally rocks and the beer is ice cold. If you're looking for a local hangout in the Rye / Port Chester area Kelly's is highly recommended! read more

The worst eating experience in my entire life!! Admittedly the food is not bad but if you want your burger served with a side of right wing politics this is your place. We overlooked the huge sign outside that said "help joe the plumber," because the reviews on this site about the burgers were great. However once we stepped inside my wife who is Latina was greeted with unfriendly stares from the bar patrons and bartender (whom I guess is the owner) which persisted the entire time we sat in the restaurant. If you are white and in particular working class Irish I'm sure this is the place to go, but be warned should you have even the slightest bit of melatonin DO NOT SET FOOT IN HERE. There is nothing friendly about this hole, the burgers are not the best by any stretch, the food is good and the prices are cheap. And if you can bare the racists at and behind the bar then you might be able to actually enjoy the food. But all in all I have never in my entire life been to such a blatantly racist establishment, I'll never go back. read more

Kelly's offers solid pub food and is a good place to stop for an easy meal. We were all in the mood for burgers so everyone at our table ended up ordering a burger and fries. I had a bacon cheeseburger with sauteed onions and was pleased when it arrived very quickly. The only person who was displeased was a friend who ordered chili on his burger because the serving size was underwhelming. Speaking of small, the tables are packed very close together so you may have a little trouble sliding in and out because there isn't much space between the table and bench. read more

I have been coming to Kelly's for so many years now and I can't remember ever having a bad meal. Jerry and Martha are lovely people and they have given Rye one of the best gifts-- a good pub. read more

If my review were based just on my meal it would have gotten 1 star. The clams were chewy, the red sauce salty enough to salinate a lake and the pasta tough and overlooked. Totally inedible. However, the burgers ordered by the other 2 members of our party were tasty enough to warrant 4 stars so I'm averaging up to a 3. The fries both looked and felt (texture) perfect but in the end were tasteless. The onion rings were better but we couldn't taste onion so based our approval on the crunchiness. We stumbled on it while en route and would have gone elsewhere after reading reviews but husband needed a beer, burger and bathroom after long day. It was filled with locals and seemed like a great place to hang out. If you confine yourself to drinks and burgers you'll enjoy this place. Otherwise, keep driving. BTW, service was very good. Friendly, polite and prompt. Another reason I gave it 3 instead of 2 stars. read more

I gotta say: "this place is amazing"!!!!! I've been to Ireland and this was about as close as you can get to an Irish pub. The fish and chips are awesome! We drive up to the place and my wife said "just keep going" I said " trust me, this place will be good". As soon as we stepped in the door I knew it was going to be great. The bar keep offered us tasters of what was on tap. Got there just before the crowd. But as soon as the crowd thickened i knew this was just like Ireland. Had a great time with my daughter and son in law. They had the prime rib which was also amazing. Thanks Kelly's. Our trip to NY was enlightened by your hospitality. read more

Great local place...Friendly owners and staff and good solid food...sometimes the cook surprise you and gets creative with a few menu items...and never disappoints. If you are in the area, check this place out. read more

Food was good, service was prompt and friendly. Reasonable prices. Wish the booth was a little bigger. But overall pleasant lunch. Looking forward to going back and trying a burger or something else from the menu. The special sounded good (ribeye steak sandwich) but had my mind settled on clam strips. Crispy outside tender inside did mine with a side of onion rings instead of fries. Price was reasonable and you get a nice sit down lunch for the price of a take out deli lunch. Give it a try happy that I did. read more

If you are looking for a quiet, fancy and expensive meal, Kelly's is NOT the place for you. The bar in this small restaurant is about the same size as the dining area. It gets a little noise at times by the patrons watching what ever sport is in season. But the waitstaff is polite and attentive. The burgers, fish and chips and salads are great, and the portions are a good size too. Everyone at the bar is a regular. Did I mention I went to high school with the cook? read more

Good place for a beer and a burger. Not a place that will amaze you; but that's not always a bad thing. For a reliably good burger and fries then you can't go wrong. read more

Awesome. This place is home of the best burger I've had in southern westchester. Trust me, I know my burgers. I'm not a wing snob but I thought the wings were pretty solid as well, as were the onion rings. Great prices too. I will definitly be back here soon. read more

The best authentic pub experience around: It's family-owned and operated...and you'll feel like family when you're there. Nothing compares! The prices are great too! Try a burger with some steak fries, yum :) read more

Total dive bar/restaurant with really good food at a very reasonable price. Try the bacon cheeseburger...it's really good...and it's only $7! read more

everyone was nice here to me and i was a regular,. but there is this one waitress that works there and she yelled at me and was so mean i never went back. Ziggy and ll the bartenders are cool but that lady drove me away. havent been back in 2 years. read more

If you are looking for a casual place to grab a burger or beer with a few friends or family, I would recommend finding a nicer place, but that's when you'd go to kelly's. It's a neighborhood classic, but bring a guest from out of town? they won't be impressed. Not to say that it's bad - the ambiance just feels like the basement level of an old ship. read more

Extremely affordable yet delicious food. The staff is super nice and welcoming. The burgers are truly a bang for your buck!! The wings and very good and their Irish nachos are a must have!!! I will always go out of my way to get Kelly's. read more

If you are looking for a nice, cozy, relaxing place for an awesome burger and killer chili cheese fries then this is it. Great food with a nice family owned feel. I almost always go with a grilled chicken sandwich but I also love the turkey club. My mother in law is a fanatic for the chicken in a basket. Oh, and the gorgonzola salad is really good. Kelly's is a great, fun spot that has been around a long time and gives you that feel of years gone by in Rye. While everything else has changed, Kelly's is classic and just plain perfect. read more

You have to try the fish and chips. Really good! The burgers are outstanding . The only negative is that the booths are a little small and tight. read more

Really good. Really simple. $5 burger is bargain, but don't let that stop you from trying other items as well. Steamers are great. Beer on ice (no fridge). Family friendly dive bar...if that's not an oxymoron. read more
