The service was good, the waitress was attentive and helpful with selections. The atmosphere was sporty and airy. Food was your average Tavern nothing outstanding and nothing that stands out, just good food. read more

Danette is the best bartender. Followed her from Burgers n beer. They have better burgers than any other dinner spot in Mentor, it's my dads favorite place for a burger. Love this place. read more

Always have a good experience here it's basic but consistent bar food !! That's what you want with a corner sports bar! We normally go for a quick bite that isn't going to break the budget and always leave full & happy The staff is very helpful and friendly as well with any allergy issues ! The owner is always very involved with the operations too so it's great to support a local mentor business read more

Extremely slow, came in with my 2 kids at 12:20, ordered at 12:30 and was told its 15-20 min for food, kids grilled cheese sandwich finally showed up after trying to give it to another table first at 1:15 , 45 min wait and fries ice cold , was told my sons small pizza and my burger would be right up, sons pizza ( burned ) showed up at 1:30, still no burger, daughter had already eaten her grilled cheese, did not eat the cold greasy fries , my burger finally showed up at 1:44, an hour and 14 min after ordering, food was not worth it, wait was crazy, took 15 just to get my check , waitress was super nice, its not her fault read more

Came here and didn't realize it wasn't Pacers anymore. New sign went up the day we went. Had my heart set on some good ribs and ordered them anyhow. Was not disappointed. They were the meatiest ribs I have had in a long time. Dining partners ordered the Poor Man's Surf and Turf. Their steak was very good and the shrimp were ample sized. Owner waited on us. He was very friendly and willing to talk about his plans for the restaurant. Will go back again, need to try the hamburgers next time. Was not disappointed in any way. read more

My daughter and I had lunch today at Mean Mugs. We were seated and our drinks were brought to us right away. Our server was also the bartender, but the didn't stop her from taking very good care of us. We started with loaded fries which had a good seasoning on them and a lot of cheese and bacon. I got the hangover burger and my daughter got the high steaks but were very good and more perfectly seasoned fries. We will return and my daughter wants to bring here husband as so as he comes home on leave. read more

I don't know what happened to the quality of this place since it changed ownership but went in to a not so friendly waitress we ordered our drinks 15 minutes later they arrive place the food order immediately and got back greasy wings and soggy french fries. It's like they didn't allow their fryer to come back up to temperature. I love to this place the Before the name change.It seems like it's not the same place unfortunately I will hate to see it go. And by the way what's up with the angry looking dog that looks like has rabies as your logo kind of offputting if we didn't know what the place used to be we would have not even stopped kind a looks like a logo you find outside of a biker bar read more

Probably the best pub food I've ever had. Everything they have is top notch and delicious. Great beer selection and a patio bar was the icing on the cake. A+ service, food and experience. read more

Ordered the mugs burger and was not disappointed! One of the largest, most delicious burgers I've ever had. The fries were also plentiful and yummy. Check it out! read more

Mean Mugs Pub - Mugs Burger - Sports Bars Near Me - Mentor, Ohio

Great place so far. Glad to have something in this location so close to home with great food. The pizza and wings are my go to, but we love everything we have tried. read more

The wife and I went twice within a week, we couldn't stop thinking about how good the burgers were the first time we went, so we went again. Between the two of us on the two visits we tried four different burgers, a couple of single half pounders and a couple of burgers with two quarter pound patties, all four were excellent, very tasty, not to mention the hand cut fries, cooked nice and crispy, the way they were meant to be served! We enjoyed the nice happy hour prices from the bar too! The wait staff was awesome, last week we sat in the dining room and yesterday we sat in the bar and experienced swift and friendly severs both times. Hopefully this will continue! We look forward to trying other items on the menu and look forward to being on the nice patio as soon as the weather breaks. Keep up the good work Mean Mugs Pub, we'll be back soon. This could turn into our new go to Friday night happy hour place! read more

I go to this place all the time. They have a great price on a good steak dinner. I always end up ordering the Fried Oreos because I lack a strong constitution. 10/10 would go back read more

Come here at least once a week. LOVE IT. Wings are amazing, tons of sauce choices. Also, their Saturday pizza/wings special for $12 is nice. Bartenders are friendly and the owner is always there. I enjoy the outside patio in the summer, too. read more

Nice place. Friendly, fast service. Accommodating. Surprisingly varied menu. Fresh, tasty food. Would definitely return.

The food is ok. I've gotten their buffalo chicken wrap and a burger and both were good. Only have gotten to go orders never dinned inside of the restaurant. read more

Wow. My son had the hangover burger which had hashbrowns, bacon, and an egg or what would already be an amazing burger... mind blown. I just had a burger with bacon, onion rings and bbq sauce on grilled cheese bread. And by that I mean the top and bottom bun were full sized grilled cheese sandwiches. I was smart enough to only eat half. It was out of this world. The onions rings were an A+. With food this good how could it get better. The server, Corri, was quick, friendly, and very attentive to the whole restaurant. This was one of the best meals/experiences I've had in a while. read more

Very good bar food. Service was kind and quick, even for a Friday night. They take some extra measures to serve good food, like real fresh cut fries and handmade burgers. Much appreciated. read more

This place has great food! Was concerned this was Pacers under another name but it is totally not. I had the steak which is not an expensive piece of meat but it was seasoned well and cooked medium just like I asked. The ribs my kids got were tender and the sauce was wonderful. If you are concerned they are Pacers under another name it's not. Service is great and the food is good. read more

My wife and and i are from the mentor area and decided to try mean mugs out. we stopped in on a thursday about a week or so ago. We we're excited to try it out because we live so close. First off, our waitress seemed high as a kite!! I can't remember her name but she was short and blonde. I ordered the surf and turf entree, i ordered it med rare.. it came out rare and was cold.. i told the waitress It was ok and that i would eat it anyways because we had already been waiting 45+ mins for our food.. my wife ordered the cobb salad which came out really good no complaints there. I wanted to speak to a manger about the service and food but the waitress was so disoriented that I just wanted to get the hell out of there!!! i don't recommend mean mugs and will not be returning in the future. read more

DONT COME HERE!!!!!! I normally come here on Thursdays and get the rib special which is why I decided to try a Sunday afternoon here since I was hungry. I sat at the bar and asked the waitress with the French braids in her hair what was on special. She proceeded to tell me Taco's and nothing else. As I was staring at a sign on the bar showing a mean mug light tall draft for 3 dollars, I proceeded to ask her about it. She then told me it wasn't on sale and that was only on wednesdays....when I showed her that there was no date on the sign stating that, she said well it's not on sale and then proceeded to tell the other bartender/manager that she was removing the signs from the bar because some people didn't understand what they were told. I sat and thought to myself hmmmm maybe I should leave now, but I didn't as I was hungry, had great food here before, and was already here. I sat at the bar waiting to have my order taken ( it wasn't busy), being ignored as the French braid bartender was going through her credit card orders, cashing them out of the register in order to take her tips out of them....how do I know this you ask? Because I watched her put codes in the register and the take cash from them and place it in her tip jar....she then proceeded to tell the other bartender that she cut her in on an early tip out, the girl looked, said wow, and then said thanks. Fifteen minutes later after she had her cash she asked me if I wanted to put and order in (I had looked at her the whole time trying to make eye contact only to be ignored). I put in an order, the burger was way over cooked, I didn't complain and I paid my bill and left. It will be the last time I come here....I can go across the street to Applebee's and get way better service and food .... signed a truly dissatisfied custome read more

My friends and I go for UFC pretty often. The waitstaff is very friendly and typically attentive. Their pizza and wing special is a great deal and everything else I have had was good as well. Overall just a nice bar to relax in and an excellent choice for watching sports. read more

Oh, unfortunately the wings that we ordered did NOT measure up to the previous restaurant "Pacers" (not even close), as some Mean Mugs employees claim when you phone the restaurant. The wings were incredibly greasy (my fingers were covered in oil), and the quality of the meat was just not there for us. The sauces and Ranch dressing were good, but that was the extent of it. I doubt we will be returning, as this is not the same food as Pacers by any means (at least wing-wise!), nor should potential customers be misled into believing that is the case. read more

The teriyaki boneless wings and onion rings were awesome! The atmosphere was laid back and service prompt and friendly. We really enjoyed the drinks and food and will be going back again. read more

Becoming regulars here .... Been here 3 times since it become mean mugs 2 weeks ago. It's nice and close to home, service is friendly, and the food is tasty. Daily specials are good. Only con - happy hour only includes domestic beers and I'm a crazy beer kinda girl. read more

This is my go to for lunch at work. Hearty food actually more than I can eat leaving me lunch for the next day and the deep fried oreos are amazing. read more

I've never had a bad meal here. I usually get a hamburger or wings, so I'm not sure about some of the other meals. The french fries are fantastic and are made with fresh potatoes - not frozen ones. What stands out the most though is how friendly everyone is that works there. All the servers are wonderful, and go out of their way to make you feel good while you're there. There's a lot of great restaurants in Mentor, but the service keeps me coming back. read more

We ABSOLUTELY love this place!!! The service is great AND the food is freshly made. Is doesn't hurt they have games you can play with your family/friends right from the table you're seated at!! read more

What a disappointment. After reading the rave reviews here on yelp we decided to give it a try. The highlight of the meal was the onion ring appetizer. They have 2 offerings of St. Louis style ribs(no baby backs) which were just okay. I chose the nacho appetizer for my meal and it had no taste. Ground meat was unseasoned and whatever cheese product they are using tasted nothing like any cheese I've eaten. The hamburger that my friend chose was either overcooked or had been thawed previous to it being cooked. It was not medium rare as he ordered. The fresh cut fries were nothing to write home about. Truly a shame as when it was Pacer's the food was good, great selection of ribs, and a pleasant dining experience. I'm not going out to eat based on how many TVs are in a place. read more

In town for the weekend and found on Yelp. We had a group of 7 all of whom really enjoyed lunch. Burgers and fried Oreos were a hit.

Burger was delicious. Fries could have been more well done. Had to put them in toaster oven

I had the teriyaki salmon meal. Everything was really good. My husband had the huge burger with fries. He had the hangover burger. He couldn't even finish it. Very nice atmosphere and fast service. Would recommend to everyone. read more

Change in owners, but still great bar staff. Burgers have gone up a notch. Can't wait for summer patio

Excellent place to go to eat and drink. You can eat inside or outside. We got the ribs and ended up taking half home. You won't leave hungry. read more

I really like it here. We sit on the patio and have appetizers and drinks. The server we always have is very nice. Food is fast. Laid back, comftorable atmosphere. They serve food later than most places so that is a huge bonus. So if you're out and about after 9 pm, you have somewhere to eat! Highly recommend! read more

First time there, 7/10/18, for lunch. The food was great and the portion size perfect, except my husband got the Huge fish sandwich. I swear it was a side of whale, and he loved it! Mary, our waitress, was outstanding. Great to see her! Will be back, a lot! read more

My husband and I both ordered a burger that was supposed to have jalapeño poppers on it medium rare... what we received is raw ground meat slightly browned on a bun. I've never been so disgusted by a burger. We also ordered the soft pretzel with cheese which was a microwaved frozen pretzel with nacho cheese for $8. There are 100 better places to have dinner and drinks in the area. We likely will not return. read more

Looking for a good burger? Mean Mugs has them! Great selection of app's and burgers, full bar with lots of TV's for sports games. Family friendly side of the restaurant too. Our waitress was wonderful, even when it became super busy. She was on it and always friendly. This was our first time there and we will be back! read more

They have a really great burger selection and awesome happy hour deals! Cleaver pairings for the sandwiches and well cooked meat! Service was a little slow and unfriendly. First time there and we sat at the bar and no one was there, bartender walked up and said, "what do ya want to drink?" ...Not that a smile is that hard but c'mon at least greet your customers. But hey, what can you expect from a restaurant called Mean Mugs? \_")_/ read more

Good food and service. Love the prime rib sandwich. Moscow Mules are very tasty and refreshing.

Went there for lunch on a Friday. Too early, so we were among the first diners. Had the burger on the lunch special, 1/4 lb, and nothing special. It really was not anything special. Fries very bad for first of the day. Kind of disappointed overall. Was hoping to find a place to watch the MLB playoffs but it won't be here. read more
