I recently had dinner at Miller's and overall, it was a positive experience. The osso-buco was the standout dish for me - it was excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The mashed potatoes on the side were also a highlight, and the gravy complemented them perfectly. We opted to sit inside due to the chill in the air, and while I'm not a huge fan of high tables, it wasn't a big deal. The noise level was reasonable during our visit, but I can imagine it might get louder on days when there are big sporting events on. Our server was friendly and efficient, and we didn't have any issues with the service. All in all, I'd say Miller's is a solid choice for a meal, and I'd be happy to go back. read more

Look, this meal was a total identity crisis. The Boom Boom Shrimp tasted like it was fried in 10W-30 motor oil--stale, heavy, and disrespectful to the ocean. I didn't know seafood could taste like a garage floor, but here we are. But then the wings showed up and suddenly the kitchen has a PhD in flavor? Elite crunch, actually seasoned, total 180. The drinks were hitting heavy and the server, Dave, was a straight-up legend who saved the night from being a total disaster. Bottom line: Come for the drinks, stay for the wings, but if you order that shrimp, you're basically signing up for a specialized form of torture. Fix the oil and this place is a silver mine, yes not gold, silver. Until then? Order carefully. read more

Recommend if you're feeling solid American styled food. My husband typically likes to get the Mac and cheese with chicken nuggets on top! It took a little while for our food to arrive the last time I was there, but they were busy! read more

Have been here once before years ago, fast service, food was pretty good. It's similarly priced to other restaurants in the area like Fords Garage and Cheesecake Factory. The mac and cheese I tried at the GCM Food Fest for the first time and it was SO good so that's what I came for. read more

Ale House has been slipping these past few years. The last two trips were really good. The cheeseburger and ribeye steak were both excellent. Our last visit the big red and steak were amazing and the service was even better. The atmosphere has always been good. Ale House will be back in our normal rotation. read more

I find it surprising that Yelp has this rated at 3 stars. It's not a high end restaurant but they serve good food with a staff that seems to care about your stay plus it's a sports bar. As you see rated as 4 stars as the place has both inside & outside seating (with AC) , TV's everywhere and the food is good & beer is cold! Enough said! Check it out you'll be happy you did! FYI, Florida Football game day this place will be packed! Go Gators! read more

The food I've had has been consistently flavorful, service has been 90% on point, and the ambiance is aligned with how a sports bar should be. read more

Courtney was my server in the patio. THE ABSOLUTE BEST SERVER!!!!!! Give her a raise. She was so kind. Attentive. Made the best strawberry daiquiri. Talked to us about the area and was just so damn nice. The food was good. The beer was good. 10/10 experience. read more

I came in on a Saturday since Texas Roadhouse was packed and it was a 30 min wait . We were sat quickly and attended to pretty quickly as well. I wasn't too hungry so I just had the classic burger and subbed the fries for a salad. I was able to ask them to give me the salad before the burger arrived. It was crunchy and perfect amount of salad dressing. I've noticed some restaurants just love to drench the salad and it becomes so mushy and just tastes of dressing but they got the balance just right. It was crunchy and dressing had a great flavor not too sour. Their honey mustard is so good . I was thinking oh it's so watery at first sight but the sweetness was amazing. The burger arrived a few minutes after I finished my salad and I always say it's hard to mess up a burger. They did a great job. The burger was juicy and tender. The toppings were fresh and crunchy. Loved the pickle they have which is thin sliced and long. The bun was a soft sesame bun and I loved it. I would buy it to make burgers at home it was that good. I'm thinking next time I'll try the bacon burger. Server Meghan was attentive and friendly. Great first visit and would deff come back again. It was pretty packed but it seemed that they had everything going under control and it was a seemingly smooth service. read more

Tremendous beer selection and above average bar food selection. Would highly recommend for a Sunday afternoon NFL game.

This place is a FL staple. I appreciate the good quality food and variety of drinks. They are open late which is great bc a lot of places aren't. The service is good and the staff is friendly. It's a nice casual place. read more

A friend was visiting and chose Miller's Alehouse for dinner, so we checked it out on a Friday. While it was busy, we didn't wait more than 15 minutes for a table. They have a large selection of beers and mixed drinks to choose from. I ordered the Zinger's Mountain Melt, which is a delectable pile of chicken tenders on top of a bed of fries smothered in cheddar cheese, applewood-smoked bacon, and scallions. Is it healthy? No. Does it taste amazing? Absolutely. We also got an order of the fried jalapeños for the table. These were unique - I had never seen friend jalapeños on a menu before but they were crispy, crunchy, and spicy. Despite them being an appetizer, one order was large enough to serve as a full meal. Overall, Miller's Alehouse is like your typical sports bar pub food but on steroids. I know I'll be going back again soon. read more

My wife and I ordered a burger and a boneless wing meal, and shortly after eating, we both ended up lying in bed not feeling well. I didn't finish my burger because it didn't taste right, and my wife didn't like her wings either. The service itself wasn't terrible, but our waitress only came to the table four times during the entire visit. Unfortunately, we will not be returning. read more

Seated within 5-10 minutes. Service took a bit but was overall a good experience. Appetizers I recommend you try: -Sticky Ribs -Potstickers-Fried -Calamari Entrees: -Steak and Lobster Ravioli -Cobb Salad with Blackened Shrimp and Chicken- -Large portion so I recommend you share with someone Drink: Watermelon Margarita- delicious! read more

Our service last night was great! We had a party of 6 and our drinks were never empty. We were at the outside bar and had lunch and dinner here. Tonight we have a group of 15 and were told that we can't sit at the outside bar so we came inside and we don't feel welcome. Our service is slow and was told that they are backed up, the place isn't even half full! Place is good for a small party apparently a large party they can't handle read more

Walked in for a late dinner and semi-busy for a Wed evening. Nice sports bar vibe. We were seated right away and tended to quickly with menus and drink orders. From there was downhill. Got the potstickers fairly quickly and ordered wings and nachos for our mains. Literally took 40 minutes. Our food was basically sitting in the window because our server wasn't on top of it. When I asked for our food to be checked on she handed the line cook my wings back for a "freshen up" since the sauce had dried out under the heat lamp. I just watched and stared as they stared back. Nachos came out luke warm and any cheese that came with it was so coagulated and chewy. Wonder what it's like when they're busy. Would I come back? Hard pass. Should you go try it? HELL NO. 2 stars because it had potential. read more

I enjoyed the atmosphere of this restaurant. I didn't have a long wait to be seated. The tables are spaced reasonably apart and the staff was super friendly. I ordered the cheese curds for my appetizer and they were amazing!! So light and fried to perfection. I also got a pitcher of Red sangria. I felt this was overly sweet and you couldn't really taste any wine in it at all. My date ordered the Hopsecutioner Ale. It was super hoppy. We split 20 wings half mild and the other half was garlic Parmesan. The wings were very flavorful but they were sadly still pink on the inside. Our waiter Roland was definitely very knowledgeable about lots of wine choices and helpful when choosing apps from the menu. Overall I would return but I would like to not see pink chicken again. read more

Me and my son came in for a good meal last week we got sat after waiting almost 40 minutes to sit somewhere even tho there was almost 15 open spots to sit. our server Reilly didn't come to see us for another 30 minutes our food didn't come out for an hour and a half and when it did it was cold. we didn't even finish our meal we ended up leaving. there was garbage all over our seats and we tried to use the bathroom but there was no paper towels, no toilet paper and there was urine everywhere. I will never eat here again read more

Miller's Ale House food gives you what you expect to get when you want comfort food. I didn't know I needed a beer and coconut shrimp to make my day. The New restaurant location is really nice, clean, nothing like the old one was. The coconut shrimp was a plumpy delicious crunch. The service was not memorable, but there is booze, plenty of space, and TVs everywhere. It was just the ease of a hangout and drank I was looking for. read more

Went in to pick up my order since I had placed it online. "Q" was really kind. The food is always good, even if I'm late to pick it up. I always get some sort of entree with Zingers. Tonight, I got the mac and cheese with mild zingers. My partner got the cilantro-lime chicken entree with a loaded baked potato and a ceasar salad. The place is big, there's lots of tables and seating. Even when it seems busy, there aren't typically a lot of people waiting. Overall experience: Service: (Q especially, thanks man) 10/10 Food: Solid 8/10 Cleanliness: always looks clean and the floors seem free of food We'll be back : ) read more

What a fun place to watch a game! Tv's everywhere. Food was good big selection. No complaints.

What an incredibly disappointing experience. I went here with a friend as we were in town for a meeting. I've been to many Miller's Ale House locations in Florida and always left satisfied. This particular location would not do their Zingers grilled, as every other location would (and you can order them that way in-app at all other locations as well). For people looking to eat healthy while they are out, this certainly is a major drawback. Additionally the appetizer we ordered (kettle chips) took more than 20 minutes to come out. We saw other tables who ordered after us get their entrees first. Clearly, attention to ticket times was not a priority here last night. Finally, the service wasn't great. Our server never came back to check on the table or offer to refill our drinks. While I remain a fan of Miller's, this location definitely doesn't have their act together. read more

Such a shame. A very nice and clean establishment. I didn't understand why it wasn't busy at lunch time. I went three times a week for lunch prior to the lease expired on international speedway in Daytona and they relocated went five times a month in Orlando . Staff did a ok job. Food was large portions which the price was fair. Unfortunately there was no fun. No reason to come back. I hope the franchise owner contacts me, I ran very successful service/parts new car departments in new car dealerships. This location should be a goldmine. read more

This is the 3rd time we've been to Miller's this month! We've had excellent meals and drinks here, but tonight our party came back for the desserts! We're shared an assortment of desserts but our favorite is the Captain Jack's Buried Treasure. It was so AMAZING! And our servers have been phenomenal. Several huge screen TV's are the cherry on the top for a fun night out with friends. read more

Staff was rude at first as they were short staffed but as people cleared out of the restaurant they became a lot nicer. Food was good but nothing out of this world. read more

Ale house used to be one of my favorite places to go with my friends for a cheap, but tasty late night snack! However, I'm sad to announce that ale house no longer has 5 dollar apps :(. The 5 dollar apps were what me and friends would always come for, the crispy zingers and loaded cheese fries. Regular price for these are 14.69 and 9.99. We came today looking for the apps and we found out that they're no longer 5 dollars. The prices for everything on the menu also went up by 2-3 dollars as well. My friend wanted to order drinks today but they were out of ginger beer and their blenders were broken so we had limited options. We ordered the mountain melt zingers for 14.69. If you look at the pictures you can see we were only given 4 zingers and I even included w picture to reference the size. Each zingers was the size of a small shrimp. They tried to cover the lack of fries with a lot of cheese. I'm honestly so disappointed in my experience here tonight. The lack of food, the expensive prices, and the poor quality of the food added up to a one star review. I can say that I definitely will not be returning to this Gainesville location ale house. In the end, my friend and I had split the zingers. With the PUF fee, tip, and tax, we each paid 9.60 for half (2 small zingers) of a zingers mountain melt. read more

The wait staff at this location are amazing, but I've had problems with the hostess being MIA and managers not taking care of issues that come up. My biggest gripe is that they are no longer doing $5 late-night appetizers Monday-Thursday AND they took away trivia when they switched to the new location... This was the biggest reason I would gather friends to meet here when we needed a late-night snack. The loaded cheese fries are usually a safe bet. Don't get the zinger appetizer alone - it's $12.99 for five of the smallest chicken tenders you have ever seen. Get the zinger mountain melt if you really want both, it'll save you a lot of $$. The cheese curds and the spiced honey sauce are amazing. The new mozzarella sticks are amazing and a great portion (12 sticks) for the price. The 35 fried shrimp are always good, but sometimes the sides are hit or miss. This last time, the fries were barely cooked and still translucent... Don't count on the managers here to fix any of your problems. read more

This is a great sports bar! There is plenty of room, and plenty of tv's. It is well-lit, but there are no lights in your face. It is crowded today, but we got a seat right away, and the service was prompt too. They serve basic bar food. It was hot, and tasty, but nothing stuck out as must-get, although the bacon-cheese fries were deelish! Plenty of parking and plenty of food and beer. Easy wifi, and smiling servers. Worth the trip! read more

My wife got the ribeys steak and it was perfectly cooked rare and she got it unseasonably. She said it was the most flavorful steak she'd ever had. Our daughter got the spinach and artichoke dip which she loved but said it didn't have enough dip as she had a half tray of chips left. I had the mac and cheese zingers and they were very good read more

Solid place when wanting to go watch some sports. The place seems understaff at times, and they take awhile to greet you and sit you down, but I have found memories here. Their margaritas are not the best but they have good deals on beer buckets. read more

Jayy gave us outstanding service!! Food was prepared well but out of my favorite prime rib steak sandwich.

Came in for a quick bite to eat while visiting the VA office here in Gainesville Fl. The restaurant is really nice and clean, looks new. I ordered the Zinger Tacos and it was just ehhh. The sauce was overwhelming and the chicken was heavenly coated with batter. Don't get me wrong I love a good crunch on Chicken Fingers but this was way over. I guess they're working out the cooks. read more

In comparison to its old location, Ale House has made significant improvements. Located in Celebration Pointe, the surrounding already feels more upscale. The restaurant has a plethora of indoor and outdoor seating, with a full bar for each. All of the tables were clean, and even the bathroom was impressively nice. Even though it only opened its doors a few days ago, they already have customers coming in constantly. I went for their $5 appetizers/late night special, which is after 10PM on Monday - Thursday. I was seated immediately and my waiter was very kind when taking drink and food orders, as well as fulfilling any additional requests that we had. He was very prompt with refilling our drinks & checked up frequently, which was nice. As for the food, it's comparable to all the other chains. However, I was glad to see that the portion sizes were generous; my party of three was unable to finish three appetizers! For the food and service, as well as experiencing Celebration Pointe, I would recommend going to this Ale House. read more

We went for lunch and it was not crowded at all. The food we ordered was very good and you get big portions too. The waitress was very friendly and kept our drinks filled.

Im always down for Ale house but being from Orlando and coming to this location, I was a bit disappointed. The vibe at other locations is usually up hype and fun. This location was okay looking. The service was Okay but when we got our food... 2/4 plates were cold. I brought my friends from out of town and I was displeased with the quality of the food and it made it seem like i made a bad choice for picking out a spot to eat. The server did great but he was rushing us from the time we sat. I would come again and try it out cause Ale house is usually good but this location was a bit meh! read more
