It's not whining any atmosphere awards any time soon but if everyone knew how good the food was, there would be a line down Lost Nation. We went on a Monday night because my aunt had been there and had tried a few things but hadn't had the potato pancakes yet. Our table ordered multiple orders of potato pancakes, stuffed mushrooms and pretzels. Their beer cheese has been taunting me since, it was so good!!!! Really all the food was absolutely delicious. The server we had was great! My aunt said their day time cook/chef is an amazing lady, we didn't meet her this trip but the food was great so I'll trust that! An added bonus to this bar, they use puree instead of syrup in the drinks. There is a berry lemonade that my aunt and grandma ordered that was out of this world! If I was a drinker I'd go back for that! Instead I'm going back to eat my weight in anything they will cover in beer cheese!

So I've been to this place a few times, and there always seems to be tension among the staff. Today…read morebeing St. Pat's Day, I assumed it would be busy. And it was. There was ONE poor female bartender working her not so young butt off serving probably 60 people all alone. At one point another woman showed up, who I later discovered was the owner, and the bartender finally took a minute to sit down, at which point the new bartender told her that if you're going to sit there, just go home. They got in a brief shouting match in front of patrons (which I was told happens frequently) and I saw her on the patio looking so defeated. I told her I saw what happened and told her she was doing great and gave her a nice tip. But that's the last time I will patronize that place after seeing how horribly the owner treats her staff. I see why she was the only one working, probably because no one else will.

The patio has become one of my favorite places to eat and hang with friends. Chef John and his team is amazing. What he comes up with is supurb. So much better than what was there before. Their burgers are huge. The portions are generous. And the taste has me coming back for more. Highly recommended. I see nothing but good things for this place. Oh, and to that other commenter (Angie M). The Willoughby Burger is a blended burger. Meaning the beef patty has the mushroom cooked into it. They hand pack the burgers, it's not processed. It's an amazing blend of Portobello and button mushrooms. It's in the James Beard blended burger contest. And what is so wrong about having male bartenders?

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.

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

So I hate to have to post this, but the last few times have been very disappointing…read more 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?
