Ordered wings and they came out way too pale for me so I ate one and asked them to remove the rest. She said she could take all of the wings except for the one I ate off my bill lol. My server was training and he seemed scared but he and his trainer did a good job getting us set up. My menu had some smushed peas or something stuck to it. The seemingly self-serve popcorn doesn't seem sanitary enough for me. Also my fries were served in a chalky metal bucket? That's gross I want yall to stop doing that lol. A kitchen sink burger was recommended to me and although it wasn't hot it was actually very good. read more

We've been going to this location for years. It's always busy and the servers are great and attentive. The food is hit or miss. Sometimes you can get a great roast beef sandwich and sometimes it's chewy or cold. Sadly, never consistent. Would love to see them update the restaurant and give it a thorough cleaning. It's not awful, but you can tell it needs it. read more

Orgasmic Nachos! Also service from Daniel was excellent!! Love the DJ as well! Atmosphere is relaxing read more

Bun is rock hard, 1 slice of cheap yellow American cheese-, pickle looks old- 14 dollars for this small rock hard sandwich, now I tasted it!! It is the worst hot roast beef I've ever had- I only ate 1/4 and hate to take out 5 pieces of fat!! The roast beef tasted like it was in a drawer at room temp for days , sauce was disgusting - I could do better at store buying my own!! Never again- Don't waste ur money- they don't care read more

McGlynns Pub - Hard bun - old pickle and 14 dollars gone - Salad Near Me - Newark, Delaware

We came here on a Friday 3:28 around 7:30pm. It was my wife and eight-year-old daughter waited to get service by the hostess for at least 30 to 40 minutes after we were told that the wait is only 15 minutes. She then proceeded while there are many open tables to pop popcorn for the next 20 minutes while we waited. We had to actually tell the host that there are open tables because we saw them already set next to us before she actually sat us down. It was the absolute worst experience super loud environment. Do not come here with families. Once we got seated person next to us was cursing loud. Had an altercation with the lady that tried to button in front of us in line who also cursed at my wife. Hostess should have told her that it wasn't her turn not us. read more

April is very professional and accommodating. She made my time at the restaurant very pleasant. I hope to have her as a server again soon. She is a valuable asset to this company. Keep up the great work!!!!! read more

Came here for my friend's bachelor party. Had an amazing time and the food and drinks were good as well. Definitely recommend

Great experience. Cielo was very attentive. I have never had a bad experience at this McGlynn's and I have been coming here since 2015.

My reliable Delaware Irish Pub! This is a good, reliable place to stop at whenever you want to hang out with friends and family. I usually stick to a couple of small things and a nice big drink. There's music and TV along with a popcorn machine and a bar area that wraps around the center. My go-to food item is always the French onion soup. I could eat gallons of it, honestly. There really is nothing like a huge bowl of hot French onion soup made with tons of flavor and a nice tall Guinness beer. The service is good, I think the staff are nice but sometimes it's a little hard to communicate with loud noise and music. Project your voice and you should be golden! Overall, it's a classic American Irish Pub experience, and once in a while, they have some interesting specials to offer, such as for St. Patrick's day. I believe there are also some merchandise offerings at this location, such as a commemorative mug or a t-shirt. read more

These burgers are really good! We got a stuffed burger with peppers, mushrooms, onions and cheese and it was delicious. They come on a potato bun and with fries. However fries were a bit soggy. I remember coming here a few years ago and burgers and fries being really good. Would come back again! read more

McGlynn's, the bar got so big, busy and popular they had to add a restaurant. Big crowd, seemed very friendly. My cheesesteak was big and good. The mushrooms were noticeable but didn't add a lot of flavor. Don't know what else to say except, everything was good. read more

This place is blah...if you're from the area you know this place as the spot you used to drink at in your early 20's and basically that's it. It's a typical chain restaurant with mediocre food. Me and my friend stopped here because it was late and the only place opened at the time. She ordered the salmon sandwhich and I order the Turkey sandwhich on a pretzel roll. First the salmon sandwhich was pretty small and the salmon pieces on the inside were dry and not flavorful. The Turkey sandwhich had so much honey mustard that I subbed in that I couldn't taste anything else but that. But the fries were fresh and good and the prices are cheap but the food reflects it. Honestly if you're in this area looking for food I would recommend something else in the complex like Red Robin or La Piazza Di Caruso! read more

Can't can't can't believe the manager and bartender let the regulars buy food from outside and let them eat inside the restaurant. That means you food is SUCKS .. they are loud people and contractors or carpenter or whatever works doing inside work has attitude(smack chairs,tables etc don't give a s...) I used to love this place but iam OUT read more

I have been going to McGlynn's for years..and yesterday's visit sucked everything out of me.. We arrived just before 4:00 not busy 3 servers available chatting amongst themselves.. The three of us had to wait 20 minutes for someone to come over after I got out of the booth and waved one of them down, she them said " I will be with you in a minute"..and continued to chat.. Finally we gave our orders, it took 45minutes to get them, the shrimp was old and overcooked. I spit it out , was told I would get another order , that finally came 45 minutes later, the two people I was with had been completely done long before I got a fresh order of shrimp. Lost my appetite at that point, got a to go box .. Won't be going back.. Thanks McGlynn for you great food & Hospitality!! read more

The staff here is SO. RUDE. The food is admittedly very good especially for a pub. The bar area is usually very busy so that speaks well for the drinks I suppose. The free popcorn is pretty yummy. Very much like movie theater popcorn. My wife really likes one of the dishes here. But that's the only reason I come. Every time I'm picking up and placing the order everyone from the hostess to the bartenders (the ones who take the order and money) are so rude to me. They act like I'm not even standing there and it's a physical pain to wait on me. When they finally bless me with service they're downright rude and sneer at me. It makes me feel terrible which is insane for a place of business. It's not a one of situation it happens literally every time. I guess they hate takeout orders. The only reason I even subject myself to this is because of my wife. read more

Love, Love, Love McGlynns Pub!! Good food, good drinks, nice atmosphere. We like to meet here for after work team-building. read more

Absolutely terrible experience trying to place a pickup order. I called 3X sitting on hold a total of 20 minutes for someone to take my order. Each time someone hung up the phone without comment. I called back the 3rd time and explained what happened the first 2X and they said they will get the bar to take the order. I wait 5 minutes and the bar picks up the phone and says hello. I ask to order and she says hold on and hangs up!! read more

Went to dinner with my wife on a Saturday night. Ordered prime rib medium. Came out beyond well done. Obviously it wasn't edible, so sent it back. Came back medium color, but was cold. I decided not to send it back and packed it up to take home. I told the waitress and she told me that they've had lots of complaints lately about the prime rib. So for $23 I got to reheat it myself that night, while I ate a potato that was overcooked and watch my wife eat. Crap experience, and only an explanation from the waitress, no manager contact, apologies...nothing, didn't even offer a discount or take it off the bill after I said I'll just cook it myself. Actually that's not entirely true, the waitress did offer ME a free piece of desert. I declined, and tipped her well as she wasn't working in the kitchen. The place is also pretty run down and didn't seem too clean. The bathrooms (at least the men's) is pretty atrocious, and the floor seems greasy. read more

Delivery via UberEats was quick, the driver came right to my house after picking up the food. My chili was room temp and had no flavor. I had to add hot sauce, cheese and sour cream, as that is my personal preference when eating chili. And apparently, chick peas are a thing that they think belong in chili. My daughter's hot dog was fine, but then again five year old kids aren't very discerning when it comes to a plain hot dog. I will not be ordering from them again. My previous order was incomplete, with my au jus missing from the French dip sandwich. read more

The service was good but the food was terrible. We ordered the crab cake sandwich. The crab cake had no flavor or seasoning at all and the there was barely any crab meat mostly filler and it was mushy. And because of this supply demand I had to pay a higher price for seaford. Order the cheese steak egg rolls and They were over cooked and dried out. I have ate here before and the food was good but this was very disappointing Order the cheese steak eggs. They were over cooked and dried out. read more

My husband and I love McGlynn's. There's always something on the menu that basically anyone can enjoy. The service is good and prices aren't bad at all. It's a little bit noisy at times but it's a pub and I prefer noisy to quiet when it comes to restaurants. It's a great place to meet friends for dinner or drinks. read more

They charge $14 for what they call the "impossible burger". It is a run of the mill veggie patty that IS NOT A IMPOSSIBLE BURGER. It was flat and tasteless without the ketchup. The fries were cold. The lemonade tasted like water. The server was nice. The food was terrible. read more

We went here for my birthday last night due to last minute and long waits at other restaurants. I haven't been here in a while, but it was nice. The food was ok, I mostly ate steamed shrimp and my kids the same. I would say overall, the service was the best part. Our server was very attentive and very friendly. I feel like maybe the menu should be revised a little bit, not much to choose from and it's a little pricey on a regular night if they aren't having specials. We did get a deal on the shrimp, so that was ok. I would return maybe if I was having quick appetizer or a drink, but probably not for dinner unless the menu is revised. read more

Just a place to eat. Service was ok but the staff could have been friendlier and more attentive. Food was ok, nothing special. My burger was bland but edible. My Crab and Corn Chowder was tasty. I was visiting in the area and we went here because a relative posted on Facebook from here. Not a bad place but there are better places to eat. read more

Usually don't have to complain about this local pub of greatness but today's visit was not up to par! Service was excellent but the crock of onion soup was terrible!!! It's one of the things I rave about when it comes to mcglynns but the lack of taste, the full onion peels that couldn't be eaten unless you used a fork and a knife and the last time I checked soup was meant to be eaten with a spoon, the temp was barley warm. Didn't complain at the time of service because the waitress was new and doing her job! Terrible experience Mcglynns! Update: well here we are 2 yrs later during Covid! Brussels cold and burnt, when we asked the waitress for another order she said they came out hot and were hot when I put them on the table! WAIT WHAT! Dear Grace , you my dear need a little education on customer service real quick! New order came out and were amazing, not burnt , not cold, don't worry Grace they were hot this time! And popcorn, if you're going to serve the most sought out thing at Mcglynns "popcorn" do yourself a favor and make sure it's not stale in the paper bags because your making sure you stay within the rules of Covid! Oh mcglynns go back to when you were amazing! read more

Friendly staff, good people, good food, good drinks. Only problem I have is the men's bathroom sinks. There are two of them. The left one produces a cylindrical pouring of water whereas the right one comes out like a shower head with several thin streams. It's boggling on the brain. 8/10 do recommend. DO have the chips. DONT have the nachos. Speaking of the chips, get them with ranch. Without it, they taste like a carpet store. With it, though, hot damn. With it, they are heaven on got damn earth. UPDATE: THERE WAS A BRAWL ON FRIDAY. CHANGED TO 5 STARS read more

I want to thank whoever cooked my French onion soup tonight you did a perfect job Mccglins you better keep this person cause I'm coming back for same thing every time read more

This place gets more dingy every time I visit (6-10 times a year). Last night the girlie bar keep was pretty quick to take my order but then proceeded to stop and talk and get a drink for herself first. 5 minutes later she eventually served my beer. Sorry, as a former professional bartender this just doesn't cut it. I ordered a hot roast beef sandwich that turned out to be a hot mess. Probably some of the toughest beef this +50 year old has ever encountered. For being a signature item, I was more than disappointed. Bob Ashby should fire 90% of this derelict crew starting with the management. They just suck! read more

I used to like this restaurant for lunch. At a recent visit, I got a Cobb Salad but asked the waitress (we had a waitress & waiter take our order) to leave the turkey & bacon off, because I only wanted the chicken. When they brought the salad I could not believe there was no more than a teaspoon of tiny chicken pieces on it. Now you would think they would have compensated for the turkey that was omitted with additional chicken. No, it was terrible! When I told the waiter the amount of chicken on the salad was pathetic he agreed but did nothing. Full price was charged for the salad. McGlynn's in People's plaza was a place you could get a decent lunch. The past couple of times I have been there for lunch, it was not good. read more

We just had AYCE wings. Not realizing they raised the price from $12.99 to $14.99! For 7 very small wings. The second batch were meatier but to raise the price and give 7 or less wings, no thank you. read more

I always give McGlynns a try once a year. Their customer service is usually friendly, but the food is a hit or miss depending on what you get. Their Corn Crab Chowder is my favorite to order, plus Wednesday's are all you can eat wings. read more

Took my family to McGlynns pub in Newark, waiter was so slow, drinks took forever to get, no refills, beer came out with no head, ordered all you can eat shrimp, came out cold, fries were cold, ordered a burger for myself and a cup of chili, chili came out with burger and it was cold, couldn't find waiter, refills on shrimp took forever to get, but they did come out warmer, over all won't go back to this store, one in Dover was a lot better. read more

Went to McGlynns for the first time 4/10. The service was great. Our server was very attentive and polite. Answered all my dumb drink questions and was super nice about it. Went around 9:30 or so and it wasn't too crowded. A lot of open space here. We ordered Car bombs and orange crushes. Also had an order of fries. Love this place because they have Malt Vinegar on the table. I'm a very large girl and the booths here are amazing!! So all my fluffy friends I encourage y'all to go. read more

This used to be a clean place, with cold beer, good food, reasonable prices. My last several experiences have been sub-par. undercooked and cold burger, room temperature beer, wings taste like burned grease. Won't be back to eat. Very slow service at the bar. Waited 15 minutes, and walked out. Hope they turn things around because it's not what it used to be. read more

The service was horrible. The Cole slaw inedible and the burgers were mediocre. We were offered a free meal but don't intend to ever go back. read more

Food was severely dry, nachos were just a pile of chips with hard cheese, a pile of beans , & a scoop of sour cream. Boneless wings barely had any sauce and the burger was significantly smaller than the bun. Atmosphere for football was great with a good beer special but the food was a disappointment. Seems to have been like this for a couple of months now with no improvement in sight. read more
