When a place has an average rating of 1.5 you know you're not going to see the best of results - especially considering the best rating in English has been a three-star rating, which was back in 2015! O'Learys is a Swedish franchise restaurant chain with the concept of American sports bar and restaurant. They are over more than one floor, and you can access the other floor through the Mall of Scandanavia, in which it is located in, in a town called Solna, in the outskirts of Stockholm. I approached the bar area - there was a table stating they were cashless - which is a growing theme in Stockholm. After waiting for a few minutes shouting "hello" "hello" no one seemed to be there - I know they were serving people downstairs as they had tables and a bar area and of course a stand typically places would have before sitting someone down - Nevermind bad service this is no service. The place also seemed to lack authenticity, I get during the international break for football there isn't much on but instead of showing a real game or a classic game from the past they ended up showing a game which was two weeks old as if it was real - surely anything other even a sports news channel would be better than and old, unremarkable game from the end of August? Really bad service for what I'm finding out is a chain which lacks the authenticity they claim to have. 1* read more

O'Learys - Sports Bars Near Me - Solna, Alberta

Slow, lousy service.. food served isn't even the same as what the menu says.. Buffet is more like a cafeteria/school cafeteria. Half the items stated don't exist. Ordered mozzarella sticks.. came out cold. Fish & chips came out cold. Fish undercooked and was like a wet sponge. Fries soggy enough to be braided into a nice bracelet.. if I would have wanted to. Had to get up and get utensils myself, Servera didn't even bother bringing these.. even though I asked for them?! Didn't even have parsley or the lemon as said on the menu. When questioning why the served food isn't the same as the menu provided the reason was "game day menu", Ehm well we ordered the said items from that game day menu. We even told the servers that we wouldn't eat this food and they could send it back to the kitchen. They offered to make another for us, but in honesty.. a half empty restaurant with that many staff members running around and taking over 40 minutes to be served the first time we declined. Best part.. the staff actually had the nerve to try to charge us for the food we sent back! I mean what the actual F*CK?! You serve something that was unacceptable and we send it back with the server and decline having it remade and you expect us to actually pay for it? Server goes back to the register, comes back with a discounted price on the receipt instead. Now why on earth would I want a discount for something I haven't even eaten, something I specifically asked to be sent back?! Not even the "manager" took it upon herself to have the conversation with us she actually avoided the issue! We told our servers over and over again that we are not mad at them or have an issue with them serving us. But paying for something that we even sent back? Yeah how about.. NO! The food wasn't even removed from the table.. was just left sitting there throughout our duration sitting there waiting to pay for our sodas, which in all honesty is amazing to have been charged for. read more

Wow, this was waaaay worse than I could ever have expected this place to be. They have definitely gone full out on this location in Mall of Scandinavia, it boasts two different 'areas' in which people can dine but also take part in arcade games, bowling etc. A friend and I thought we'd grab a quick bite here before heading over to watch a movie at Filmstaden. We ordered the shared starter which had some nachos, guacamole, salsa, some mozzarella sticks and jalapeno poppers. Everything was awful. The nachos were super salty and boring, guacamole was too salty, salsa was flavorless, the mozzarella sticks/jalapeno poppers were clearly not defrosted in the right way, as the cheese was not the gooey way it is supposed to be. For the main course, we both went with the burger. The burger was awful. The meat was amongst the worst I've ever had in Sweden. It literally tasted like a 10 kr patty from MAX. No meat flavor at all, just tasted like artificial crap. How disappointing. read more

This is the worst O'Learys I've been. We watched CL and decided to take buffet. Buffet was so poor served. All kind of food was either overcooked or not well presented that you would take it. The worst thing what happened to me is that I got very bad food poisoning from claim fish (musslor). Two days I needed for recovery. I'll never ever visit this restaurant again and my recommendation is to avoid it!! read more

My took my girlfriend to this spot to grab dinner. Sadly she is not my gf anymore after this evening of disgusting food. I got the steak and she got the chicken fajitas. The steak was rare(ordered medium)...no seasoning AT ALL. Literally just meat with no flavor! The texture was that of gum, like chewing on plastic! The veggies were good tho, corn dry as the Sahara! Also ordered 10 wings..ate two of them and threw them away! Literally the saltiest wings I've had, how can you ruin wings?!? HOW? The chicken 2nd wing I had was undercooked and Still SALTY! Gf's chicken was literally the blandest piece of meat..probably as bad as my steak. I have NO IDEA HOW this place gets any customers, McDonald's is leaps and bounds tastier than this fake Irish pub. Stay away!! Wouldn't eat this if I was drunk!! read more

The buffet they had was nothing short of luxurious! I didn't eat from it but my company did and we were both in awe. Not only was the selection amazing, the food was really good and for 275 SEK you could stuff your face for hours on end. I had undercooked ribs, very unimpressive. They forgot to add sauce to them so they were dry as all hell. No point in elaborating there because my food was REALLY bad. But the buffet stuff was great. The staff was uninterested in the customers and we felt overlooked. I asked for a doggie bag which they first couldn't get me and then decided they could but it took FIFTEEN MINUTES! To get a plastic container! I asked for a bag but after an additional 10 minutes of waiting we gave up and left. The service was really bad but the food is worth coming back for, and we will go back. read more

Fun place to bowl. Buffet is huge with lots of variety but it's pricey. My burger didn't taste good to me. Meat wasn't right. Worst part is the service. Very slow read more

No way how I look at it, this place has to be one of the most boring, un-personal, and flavourless O'Learys I've ever been to. We were a larger group of people, 9 in total, and we had the lunch buffet. The ratatouille was so over-seasoned and hot that my mouth was on fire. Spring rolls and pasta dishes tasted of nothing, and while the salami pizza was ok the dough was drier than it had to be. Had a tasting platter of herb-crusted chuck roll with roasted vegetables. The meat was dry, no seasoning or char, and the vegetables had thick twigs of rosemary that felt like chewing on wood. The food was, sad to say, an utter disgrace. Not to mention that two in our company got food poisoning and threw up for hours from the Hawaii-pizza. The location itself is also way too dark coupled with unattentive and indifferent staff who couldn't care less if their lives depended on it. Horrible. read more

Worst service I've seen at a restaurant in a long time. Good luck getting the staff to wait on you or pay your check.
