Tonight my oldest son and I found ourselves at Beef O'Brady's after an evening of truck shopping. It was getting late, we were both hungry, and a good burger sounded a whole lot better than cooking. Before we even ordered, my son looked across the restaurant and said, "Don't we know that guy?" Sure enough, I turned around and there was an old friend I hadn't seen in years. Funny how life works sometimes--you go out looking for supper and end up catching up with someone you haven't seen in forever. I ordered the O'Brady Burger with fries, and my son went with the wings and fries. The food came out after a short wait, hot off the grill and looking every bit as good as it tasted. That first bite of the burger sealed the deal. It was juicy, flavorful, and honestly one of the better burgers I've had in quite a while. The fries were hot, crispy, and exactly what fries ought to be. Between the great food, friendly service, and unexpectedly reconnecting with an old friend, it turned into one of those meals that reminds you why local restaurants are worth supporting. I don't make it over to Hoover as often as I'd like, but Beef O'Brady's is definitely staying on my list when I'm in the area. And with a Tuscaloosa location reportedly on the way, I'm looking forward to making it a regular stop a whole lot closer to home. Sometimes the best nights aren't planned--they just happen over a great burger and good company. read more

I came to BOB on St Patrick's Day to partake in my traditional meal. Corned Beef , cabbage and potatoes. It was pretty lively outside with the live music and inflatables, games etc. I sat inside because I wanted to eat in peace. I also wanted to see if the SEC championship. The hostesses were all smiles and let me pick out my seat. Loved this! My server quickly took my drink order. The sweet tea is amazing!! She made sure my cup runneth over. :) My food didn't take long either and it was DELISH !! Tender corned beef , perfectly cooked cabbage and potatoes. I was so full!!! I always have a solid experience when I come here. This makes my second time and I really appreciate the consistency'. Kuddos read more

I dined in tonight at Beef O Brady's in Hoover, Al. Today was Wing Wednesday. The wings were .99 each for traditional or boneless wings. They had to be ordered in increments of 6, 10, 15, or 25. The menu had so much to choose from but my favorite is the wings. I was surprised it was not crowded with the special. The restaurant was not crowded and the service was great. I was excited to see that UAB was playing on the TV. Well so was LSU but Go Blazers. I ordered 10 lemon pepper wings and added a side of fries. The wings were a great size and they were seasoned to perfection. The waitress was amazing as she was polite and super attentive. I like that she was present and she refilled my cup and she would ask if I needed anything. Overall, I enjoyed the experience as always. read more

Arrived at 12:08 and was immediately sat, not the most ideal table in the location but hey we were sat quickly and there wasn't anything really available at that time for a party of 3. The 3 of us started talking at realized around 15 minutes we had yet to have been acknowledged must less a drink order taken. Finally the waitress came by to get the drink order, 2 cokes and a sweet tea. We decided that we were also ready to order food. During the ordering process we noticed that the waitress was writing it down instead of using the handhelds that everyone else was using. As she was leaving she said I'll get this in shortly I have another table waiting awhile....i thought wow how could there be 2 tables waiting awhile. About 10 minutes passed and she came back to say that unfortunately the drink machine went down, but they were working on it. No water was brought or sweet tea that was ordered by a member of the party. Still sitting there we noticed the couple to the left had received their salad and entrees WITHOUT anything to drink (not even water). Things happen but we failed to receive water, premade salads or chips in salsa in over 30 minutes. At this point we decided to leave and find somewhere else to eat today. read more

Really good food and exceptional service from Pamela P. Wife and I will return very soon for St. Paddy's day. We went early afternoon when it was less crowded so service was quick and food was great. read more

I enjoyed my trip to Beef O' Brady's today. I went with my family after a shopping trip, and Beef O' Brady's did not disappoint. I got the Wednesday Wing special, getting 6 Sweet Barbecue wings and 6 Teriyaki wings. They were very crispy and filled me right up. I also got some fries and Mac and Cheese for my sides, and they were delicious as well. Food here is 10/10. The service here was a bit slow however. It was very loud coming into the building during the lunch rush, but it died down soon after. My waiter mixed up my drink the first time, but she quickly fixed it. The food also took a little too long for my liking, around a 15-20 minute wait. It was worth it though for this amazing lunch with my family. I would definitely recommend coming here; you won't be disappointed. read more

We came to watch the college championship game Was surprised to see al many people here. I am not sure social distancing was observed, but the staff wore masks, so there was that We ordered beer and the spinach dip with chips Gotta say the chips were great light, not heavy My spouse ordered the hamburger special with fries The fries were barely warm. Not the best. It was so busy, it was hard to get service at first. Once half time was over, the place emptied out. Mess really disappointed that the outside was not open. They have heaters, but none of them were operational. It is too cold to be outside without them. Would come again. I am sure the staff appreciated a good tip night. read more

Tried this neighborhood place out after living in the area for a year... what a surprise! Daily dinner specials, very reasonable prices, fast service, and a 'what you would expect from a sports-bar' ambiance. We ordered 2 margaritas (SERIOUSLY $5.50 each and they were better than many house margaritas at Mexican restaurants). We were there on a Thursday and ordered the Thursday Fajita special (1 steak and 1 shrimp). Both came with all the toppings and tortillas on a sizzling plate. We also had a Philly Cheese Steak with Onion Rings. All were better than expected! We'll come again. read more

It's been a while since I have visited this Beef O' Brady's. We were looking for a place to play darts in Hoover and this place fit the bill. I'm definitely glad I went back. We arrived around 9:30 pm on a Friday night. There was plenty of parking and the place had some people dining in, but it wasn't packed. We wanted a snack while we played darts, so we decided to share the cheesy bacon pub chips which were the perfect size for the three of us. They were delicious especially since they were topped with cheddar jack cheese and smoked bacon, and were a deal at $6.99. They also had a nice selection of craft beers. I ordered the Cahaba Blonde. Also, the service was good. The only difference since the last time I visited, is that they have moved the dartboards off to the side on the left. When you first walk in, you won't be able to see them like you have in the past. read more

I have visited this Beef O' Brady's several times for to go orders, but last night, we decided to dine in for the first time. For a Thursday evening around 8:00 PM, it was super packed in there. We were sat pretty quickly and our waitress was good. She kind of got lost a few times, but it was very busy so we know she had several tables to manage. There's a kid's menu for ages 12 and under. My kids orders the wings with fries, which they loved. There was a mix up with the wings. My oldest wanted mild wings and my youngest wanted medium wings. The lady who delivered the food to our table said she had given my oldest the mild wings, but he actually got the medium wings. It wasn't a huge deal. I ordered the fish tacos and they were good! My brother-in-law got fajitas and he said he really liked them. My husband got spicy garlic wings. He requested for them to be fried hard and they were so that was a plus! All the adults had one adult beverage. My drink was rather weak, but it was good. Overall, it was a pleasant experience so I'll be back! read more

Brought my food 45 min late, whole table was done by the time I got mine. Didn't say sorry or offer to take it off the menu.

I love coming here! It's one of the few places in Hoover that's open late so definitely a go to spot if you live around here. I had the frozen pina colada here last week. So delicious! It was like drinking a frozen dessert. Service here is always great as well. read more

Always great service with good food. Family friendly and clean. Not super expensive either which is a plus.

This review is about the service rendered customers by the staff. On the whole customer service is excellent. In particular I mention by name, "Haven" who knows and personifies superior customer attentiveness. Never without a smile - in difficult situations she demonstrates her concern to resolve a customer issue - Haven consistently conducts herself not only in the best interest of the restaurant's reputation, but mostly in the best interest and dining experience of her customers. Well done, Haven. Well done! read more

This is a go to for darts, beer and grub. I have been here numerous times to drink beer and play darts. I also have enjoyed their food. Their beer selection is not extensive but they have a few standouts from the local breweries such as Cahaba and Avondale. On the menu you have a great selection of pub grub. The appetizers are excellent and are a meal in themselves if you aren't sharing. I cant say I have a favorite, because I like most of them. The ones I eat most often are the steak nachos, and the pub chips(crisps). The hamburgers are also really good, especially the lunch special. I have not had anything of the main entree menu but it all sounds good and one day I will go in for a sit down meal and try the 14 oz ribeye steak. I'm already drooling. Also the dart boards are top notch. But you need to make sure that the place isn't too crowded or they will use the dart area for additional seating. Go ahead give it a try. I think you'll enjoy it. read more

The owner is usually there or at their Helena location which is just as good with a view of the Cahaba river. Great Job! read more

Let me start by stating it was St Patrick's Day so that may explain some of the issues. We put our names on the list and were told that it would be about a 35 minute wait. We asked about getting a drink before going to the patio to listem to music. I went up to the corner of the bar behind another patron. The bartender told me to hold on and then ignored me. A waitress came up (looked like they were related) came twenty minutes later and listened to the bartender complain. Still nothing. Finally the waitress asked me if I was waiting to order and told me that you had to go to the other end of the bar to order. They couldn't have mentioned it earlier? We ended up ordering 3 Irish Kisses drink from a waitress outside and with a 25% tip, paid over $50. BTW - don't get this drink. I think we received the drinks after about 30 minutes and then we were seated about 30 - 60 minutes after that. Waitress was nice. We ordered 2 Ruebens and a hamburger. The hamburger was good, the Rueben not so much. We do recommend their cheese dip. I don't know if I'll go back. I understand that some consideration should be because of the holiday. I did tell my friends they needed some tough love from Jon Taffer with Bar Rescue. read more

If you are looking for a good place to watch a game and have some bar food then this is the place. We have been her before because it is close to our house. We went last Saturday during the Alabama game. I decided to get the soup but alas they were out of soup. The server said " the soup man did not come". That is weird that they can't make their own soup but ok then. The server was super friendly so I moved on. At that point I decided to stick with the basic chicken tenders basket and those chicken tenders were fried hot and good. My daughter had the macaroni and cheese straight from the box ( which she loves the box version). So the moral of the story is.... go for the big screen and simple bar food and it will be ok. read more

Good food, the waitress was very polite and sweet. Food came quickly. Clean tables and bathrooms

I ordered a Diet Coke and there was no sugar, the burger had no cheese, the service was good. The Ambiance was popping.

A friend and I went here during happy hour time during the week to wind down after a long day of work only to find out that they do not have a happy hour. We were informed by our waitress and the manager that their drinks are cheap enough already that they don't have specials for happy hour. Okay, cool no problem. The concern that we had was that our waitress could not tell us what drinks they specialize in and which ones were the "cheap ones". When we asked to speak with the manager, who happened to be working the bar area, she kind of rambled around and basically said that they do not have a defined list of their drinks. She stated that they pretty much just make "whatever". The manager did tell us that they have daily food specials and that tonight "Wednesday" was $0.59 boneless wings and $0.79 traditional wings. We decided to stay and I ordered 6 traditional wings with a side of fries and a Long Island iced tea. I will say that my food was delicious and came out quickly. My bill was less than $15.00, which was neat. I would come here again if I was on a strict budget and wanted something to eat for cheap. The location is prime as it's in the Hoover area close to all of the major shopping centers. read more

In town for business, I stopped here tonight, and was promptly seated by a very unhappy-looking hostess. Within 30 seconds, I kept getting whiffs of a strong urine odor. Like, I had to look around to make sure I wasn't sitting right next to an open door to the men's bathroom. My server came over within a couple minutes to take my drink order. She also looked like she did not want to be there, not so much as even a hint of a smile. I ordered water, and perused the menu while waves of urine odor continued to permeate the air. At that point, I reevaluated my decision to dine here, wondering how I would be able to eat, with that overwhelming, lingering stench. Couldn't do it, and had to leave. read more

Best wings I've had in a long tolime. The jerk chicken sauce was flavorful and just spicy enough. The fish is very good. Nice and crispy, not greasy at all. The fries were perfectly cooked and lightly salted. The coleslaw was great. Cheap kids meal are a plus. Freestyle Coke machine so we all got exactly what we wanted to drink. Funnel fries were an excellent finish to a satisfying meal. Also, the service here is exceptional. read more

Was craving a steak when I left the nearby dog adoption fair, lo an behold my Yelp search lead me to a restaurant with beef in the name. It was semi full when I walked in about 3:30 but the hostess seated in a quiet corner. My server and the GM took outstanding care of me. Their drinks looked interesting and had I not been driving I know I would have tried one or two. I ordered their daily special which on a Saturday is their Rib Eye with soup or salad, a side and dessert for $19.99. My steak was cooked perfectly to my requested rare, the soup was delicious especially for a raining winter day. The salad was fresh and large plus the house made dressing delicious. I enjoyed my initial visit and see why some of my YelpElite friends have checked in so many times. I will return every time I leave the dog adoption fair or whenever I'm nearby. I'm read more

Beef 'O' Brady's - Rare Cowboy Ribeye! - Sports Bars Near Me - Hoover, Alabama

Let me start by saying that I thought the service was really good and the items that they do most were excellent. On the other hand, I had to think about this for a while, but when it comes down to it - if you put something on your menu, do it right. My advice is this: unless the word "steak" is in the name of the restaurant, or they're known for steaks, do NOT order a steak. (Replace "steak" with menu item of your choice.). Stick with what they do the most. If your steak comes out with a pre-marked crisscross pattern from the grill you made a mistake. That being said there were so many really nice things about this restaurant. I started with french fries as an appetizer and they were probably the best french fries I've had that I can remember - hot, crisp, right-sized for me (slightly larger than McD's). On my entrée I went with the surf and turf, and, well, the steak was...cooked. It came out with one option- grayish brown and cooked through. and the shrimp was, well, shrimp I don't know if it was fresh or flash frozen and reheated or whatever but it was there and had the consistency of shrimp. Oddly enough again the best thing on my entrée plate was the potatoes - the baked potato- I saved it for last. So don't take me wrong I've been there before I will be there again they have a nice atmosphere and their food is good but stick with what they do the most. read more

Have been to beef o bradys many times and have always been pleased but tonight ruined it for us. My daughter has celiac and ordered a salad with no croutons. They brought it out with croutons. When she asked for it to be corrected we watched as they took the croutons off the salad and served the original salad. This may not seem like a big deal but to a celiac this could cause major complications. Serious concerns for anyone with allergies of any type if they are this careless!!!! This type of "correction" is entirely irresponsible and insensitive. I still cannot fathom how anyone that has been properly trained would be this insensitive. I cannot tell you how upset I am by this and disturbed. It would not have been expensive to simply redo the salad completely. And even if it was they were informed of her allergy before making the original salad and chose to ignore her allergy. What else are they doing in the kitchen? Serious concerns here! read more

Why have we lived in Hoover too long to not know about this place?! Our first time here we had the best service from Lisa Marie and she told us all the best recs!

The staff was prompt and accommodating with putting tables together for our group. Our main waitress Asia was incredible. She was so friendly, fast and accurate with our orders. She made serving a larger party look like a breeze. I also need to give a shout out to the young lady helping her serve our table. I did not get her name. The two of them worked together and it was impressive. Thank you to both of these ladies. I highly recommend this location. You can tell they truly love their customers! read more
