Good food every time we went there. The staff were really great and enjoyed all the food.

What a find! Don't be fooled that it is nestled in the corner of a strip mall: Marathon Grill & Ale House offers bar seating and a lot of dining space. But the real wow factor is their food. More than just typical "bar food," the menu is full of a variety of fresh and interesting options. We had more than a dozen people in our party, so we got to try a lot of the menu options. We were all so happy with our food, service, and drink! I am recommending this business and I know for sure the next time we are in Marathon, we will be back again! read more

New Owners, Better Menu, Incredible Food! We stopped in for lunch today. The new menu was just printed this morning. The choices were fantastic and it made it difficult to choose. They had the usual burgers and such but their hot dog selections and small bites added to the difficult decision on what to order. I love, love, love a great poké bowl. Ale House did not disappoint!!!! It is on their regular daily menu too We will be back, often. I can't wait to try the chili dog with Fritos....if I can give up their poké bowl read more

Great little restaurant we came across. Husband was craving a hamburger and we just so happen to find this cute little gem. The atmosphere was sports/bar like but also family orientated. Food was amazing. Drinks were really good and their service was great. We will definitely come back when we are craving hamburgers and fries. read more

Zero rating. Terrible service with attitude. Worst place I've ever taken my family to eat. Too many points of frustration to list. If you're visiting the Keys, do not waste your time and money eating here. read more

Super quick and fairly inexpensive considering Key West prices...so I gotta had more words because apparently a quick thumbs up isn't enough! read more

Always an amazing stop with amazing service! Food has been amazing every single time.

Don't come to grab a drink here unless you want to be charged for the ice that's in your mixed drink! A dollar upcharge for ice! Couldn't believe it. read more

Love the location. Love the menu. Great servers... But They don't offer coffee I've never heard of a bar that didn't offer strong black coffee. I didn't order dessert because I like coffee with dessert Huge managementistake not to have coffee. read more

Pretty good and also open later than any of the other places....we got off work late and didn't eat all day so we went here to eat...everything was good...service was also very good... read more

We took a large group for a late dinner after a football game. Our server was amazing. She was organized, attentive and so polite. Our drinks and food came out incredibly fast. The food itself was delicious. We will definitely stop by again our next time in the Keys. read more

Our first time returning since restaurant was reopened/purchased. Best smash burger ever! Service was fabulous!

Came in starving, 10 minutes before their kitchen closed, wanting to place a to-go order. The hostess was friendly, helpful and even made menu accommodations for me! The food was fresh and so good! The boom boom shrimp being our favorite! Will be back! read more

The bartender is very cool. I believe he's a manager as well.. Food is bar food. They had tater tots. I love tater tots.

Ok it's very disappointing We went in and it smelled like sewer gas the waitress said it was from the women's bathroom. It was awful. As we were leaving, some guy said welcome to the keys OK, we're here four months out of the year. We've been here 50 times it's awful. Fix your sewer read more

Really nice establishment! Clean and tidy. Very friendly staff. Food was very great. Get the crab cakes, unbelievable! Really big, flaky, great breading and flavor! read more

Give stars for our first stop in the keys! We are honored to start our adventure here at the Ale House. This is my husband's type of place and they have not disappointed us! It's a cool sports bar and a scale above divey. Friendly service, as we were greeted with welcoming arms. I ordered the blackened Mahi tacos, which was very delicious. I am not a slaw type of gal but the slaw they paired with the tacos were heavenly. Tonight's special (Thursday) are their wings. My husband ordered hot honey and also lemon pepper. The wings are absolutely of good quality. Super happy to have started out our vacation here. read more

I would give them 3.5*s if I could. Prices are high, even for a tourist area. Prices in online menu are wrong! My fish sandwich was $3 more than online menu. The onion rings (a $2.50 upgrade) were very good, as was the fish sandwich. However, the ice tea was closer to water than tea, and the coleslaw was very watery. read more

Service was prompt and fine. Food was awful. Pulled pork and and beer cheese was flavorless. The beer cheese was broken and clumpy. Burger was ok, even though it was medium and I asked for it medium rare. My SO had blackened shrimp that tasted close to an ashtray. Everything is also overpriced here. If you have no other choice stick to the fried menu here. read more

Great bartenders, okay food. Unfortunately, we ended up here because it was the only place still serving food after 10pm. And it was trivia night. It was the loudest, longest trivia night I've ever sat through. On a Wednesday night. Just be forewarned. Also, all the smokers congregate right outside the door on the sidewalk so it can be a bit like running a gauntlet. It's a fairly typical pub atmosphere. Lots of televisions showing various sport balls, a long bar, and a huge seating area with tables, high tops, and booths. Really good selection of tappers, including local brews. read more

The waitress was amazing. We had pizza and the pizza had a good taste but it was very soggy. read more

Marathon Grill & Ale House - Food and lots of beer options!! - Bars Near Me - Marathon, Florida

If you want a loud bar atmosphere where they overcook food hoping you don't notice...this is your place. It was only the place we went because it was the only place open after 10 pm without driving far. In its defense, it's a bar so I didn't have high expectations, but I have been to many bar and grills that have excellent food...thus doesn't. Because everything on the menu was essentially fried, I only ordered the soft pretzel which was anything but soft. It was very dark brown let's call it and solid as a rock on the top 2 parts of the pretzel and the bottom had to be cut with a serrated knife and was too hard to eat. I really was thinking they threw that in the deep fryer! The restaurant side only had 4 other people eating, so it wasn't too busy, but our server wouldn't even check back on us so I could tell her it was inedible until I flagged her down. She didn't even apologize. The did have specials on some appetizers my husband tried. The potstickers were also deep fried (way too long), and the bang band shrimp turned out fine. If you eat too late to catch a better place like us or just like a loud bar with crappy service (well, our server was) and food they don't care about...this may be 5 star for you! read more

We came to this restaurant because they advertise being open 7 days a week from 11:00am to midnight. We got here at about 9:40 and the restaurant is closed. Thanks for nothing... read more

Great lunch place with friendly service and solid choices. The staff was super attentive. Shared entrees with my husband - burger for me and a pastrami sandwich for him. Lots of beer selections on tap. Everything tasted great. We came a few days after Halloween with our kids and the staff gave all three of them individual candy goody bags. So sweet! read more

I should have eaten here every night we were in the keys! Atmosphere was relaxed and nice. Service was great, very attentive and polite. Got the listed specials on almost everything and loved it. All. Great food. We tell everyone about this place and will return and leave with a shirt! read more

We had the Mahi tacos and a sausage onion pizza. The food was great! I had to margaritas that were also great! The server Annie did a great job and it was a pleasure to talk to her. She worked really hard! read more

Food was delicious and service was great! Just the food we needed after a 3 hour trip to the keys

Before arriving, a call was made to ensure a reservation was not needed to be seated prior to arrival. The person on the phone stated no, you can just walk in and be seated. Upon arrival, we inform them we are here to dine and they say they have no tables available right now and that one side of the place wouldn't be free for another 2 1/2 hours. But the other side it may be about 15min to wait. We proceeded to place a name on the "waitlist". While waiting, additional people started to arrive. A group went inside and was immediately sat inside on the original "2 1/2 hour" wait side which they just cleared up. We went back inside to ask why they were seated before us. They mentioned a "trivia" night and now they don't know how long the wait will be. Keep in mind, that group who was seated before us was not involved in "trivia" night. Because of this, we left and went to another restaurant who would appreciate our contribution to their shitty customer service. I do not recommend this place. Keep driving. read more

Food is fine. Not great, not bad. Just okay. I got the crab cakes, they are a good size with fries, coleslaw, side salad and a breadstick, so even though the price was nearly $27, I did get a lot of food. The crab cake was bland, but their red pepper sauce on the side saved it. My dad got the blacked chicken sandwich, the chicken was good. Margarita wasn't very good. Pizza was okay. Solid 'okay' restaurant. read more

What makes an eatery really good? The food of course and the service. Tiffany was obsoletely wonderful. Very upbeat, nice and accommodating. The happy hour food quality and price cannot be beat. We ordered a pizza to go and that pizza beat the others we have had. If you like a pizza that piles on lots of cheese then this one is perfect for you. Yes, the place is in a strip mall without much abidance and a bunch of big screens. You just have to go for the quality of the food and the outstanding happy hour. read more

The food was awful . We had the jalapeño poppers and a 16 ounce meat lovers pizza. The jalapeño poppers taste like it came from a grocery store frozen food department. The pizza crust was so soggy. You couldn't even pick up a slice of pizza. The crust tasted like cardboard. The toppings where mediocre. The service was good. The waitress was courteous and nice. The ambience was good . read more
