Now, they have this bar set up like a pop up Christmas bar. I love downtown Willoughby because you could imagine this place was once somebody's home. It's been beautifully converted into a nice little bar. If you want to escape the loudness of Nora's downstairs, you can go upstairs to Finn's. Now, I understand you can rent this place out. But they have Christmas ales they have appropriately menu-ed Christmas drinks. Now, we weren't there for dinner time, so I have no idea if they served food up there, but I imagine they do. It was really cool because if you're looking to get into the Christmas spirit, they found a way to do it. And this little Christmas bar just made me so happy. It looks warm and inviting from the outside. That coupled with a brisk wind in downtown Willoughby. Made this place an awesome addition to our night.

I would rate it 0 stars if I could. My four friends and I came in because we were led on to believe…read morethat Christmas in July was being celebrated so we went into the Speak Easy but there was a private party and everyone uncomfortably stared at us. We walked in there and no one would say anything to us. Also, the Christmas in July advertising on facebook was very misleading. So we decided to sit at the bar and we sat there for 20 minutes while people who got there after us got served and we never did. We tried to get their attention multiple times but they never came over us. Keep in mind the 5 of us were taking up half the bar and nobody cared to greet or serve us. We ended up leaving because we were so frustrated and thirst.

It was interesting. Tasted good. I wouldn't order it again, BUT. I would definitely go back to try other pizzas!! The crust was perfect! I look forward to coming back to try other pizza here!!

I'm unsure of his name but the bouncer was moving through the crowd in normal clothing and grabbed me by the waist with both hands saying "excuse me ma'm". all I said was "please don't touch me". He immediately turned and yelled at me and pushed me outside saying that I'm kicked out and banned from the bar for life. He was slurring his words and had no reason to make physical contact with me. All I said was this I wasn't comfortable with someone touching me and then he proceeded to yell at me saying that me saying "don't touch me" is "accusing him of sexual assault" and that's "disrespectful to men". The door man did witness this interaction and did nothing to intervene with this man's drunken actions.

The best burger in Cleveland like... hands down. This is a dive bar but man is the food there…read moreamazing. When you pull up it looks like a dive from the 1960's or a small Soviet bloc, not many windows and just a square little building, but you come inside and the people are inviting and friendly and the food is out of this world. I got the smash burger onion rings and some loaded tots and it was delicious. Their toilet has an awesome Andrew Warhol version of Misney there which is just a chefs kiss added touch to this place. 5 stars hands down

We were in the mood for a good burger and we saw that this place had been voted "Best Burger in…read moreCleveland!" So we figured we'd try it out! If we were not looking for this place specifically, I know we would've driven right past it! It's a standalone little building and the only markings I saw outside was a little sign that said BAR. But it was 2 o'clock on a Saturday afternoon and there were several cars in the parking lot, which is a good sign. The inside is really tiny. There's a large U-shaped bar and about six tables. We looked in the menu and opted for their famous Smashburger. It is $14 and comes with fries. It is a double patty cheeseburger. I did not want a burger that big so I opted for just one Patty. They said that was no problem, but the price was still the same. I also got onion rings, which were $3 more. The food came out really fast and you could tell it came right out of the fryer because the french fries were super hot! This place is called a dive bar, and I guess it is - but on a Saturday afternoon, the place was filled with all kinds of people. On one side of us was a family with little kids. On the other side of us was a couple in their 20s. And then the rest of the place was filled with people from every age group. I have to say that the music they play there is fabulous! But back to the food. The burger was seasoned really well! It is a smash burger, but they're still able to make it crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Our server was really good. She did not hover, but she was around to see if you need anything. Depending on the vibe that you're looking for, if you want more of a bar vibe, you should go in the evening, but we were happy to just be in a relaxed little joint with good food. They opened up another Crowley's in Painesville so we will probably have to try that one too.

The decor is as vintage Irish as you can find an America. They of course have Guinness and Smithwick on Tap. The vibe is very laid-back. The doors were open and the breeze was coming in. Very old building could possibly even be haunted. Very enjoyable experience we watched the ball game on the TV and had a great time. The only reason for the three star rating is because the bartenders were not so attentive. Very much talking to their friends and not watching the patrons like they should be. Other than that great vibe.

IMPRESSIVE PLACE…read more Wow, I'm flabbergasted. I had an apartment in Willoughby in the 90s and it wasn't a bar back then. I'll tell you they're open early. I had a wonderful Smashburger for 14 with blue cheese. They open at 11 AM. It's here in downtown Willoughby the historic section. It's attached to an old train car that Marilyn and JFK rode in. Wow. It's very nice to walk in off the dining room which was the old round house for the train. This is an impressive place. I can't believe I've never been, the bartender and owner are fantastic. Owner is a big hockey fan I was talking to him about Derek Sanderson. He's from Boston. Five stars all the way I'll come here every time passing through. Just take the lost nation Road exit & your way back there.

We also got the spud skins and I would absolutely get them again. Our waitress checked in every so often and was just on it, the front staff were running around and provided great service. Spirits seems to always have something going on which is exciting, and I'm glad it's lively again. Can't wait to go back.
