I've lived within 10 minutes of this place for the last 15 years, but didn't even realize it existed until searching Yelp for wing places in the area. My wife and I got the wings- 10 wings for an order for about $9.00. 3 of our 20 wings were more like popcorn chicken they were so small. I liked the slightly crispy breading, but all 3 sauces we tried could have been applied a little more liberally. Overall, the wings were a 4 out of 10. Not enough to bring me back. The beer selection was nice and the cheese on a stick appetizer, although not like Cedar Point's famous dish, was very tasty and cheesy and our kids loved their basic kids meals of macaroni and toasted cheese. I will come back to try the pizza since others rave about it, but the wings didn't impress me much. read more

The food, beer, and service was great. Actually excellent! The hostess and the waitress were very attentive to our table, our needs. We recommend, for sure read more

Stopped in based on the great looking menu and decent reviews. Took 5 minutes for the hostess to get to the front area so we could be seated. After that we waited over 10 minutes and when we weren't greeted by a server or asked for our drink orders we left. It's a shame, was looking forward to trying this place out,,, but the service lacked so much. Hoping they are just temporarily understaffed or something read more

Oh Scoundrels.. The hidden gem just around the corner from my house.. It might not look like much.. and when you walk in it might not seem like much.. but MANY a fun night can happen at this place. They have life music on the weekends (local bands that usually have the parking lot PACKED). During the week they run a number of different specials/events including; Karoake and Trivia. The Wednesday night trivia group is the best. Drinks are only 2 bucks (yes almost everything in the place) and pizza's are 5 bucks for a large cheese (1 dollar per additional topping). The staff is the bomb! The clientele are much more fun and accepting than the stereotypes of the place would make it seem. Highly recommend this for fun nights out! read more

Fridays and Mondays are prob my favorite days to visit but you prob can't go wrong on other days either. Great burger specials on Monday nights. They're not shy with the mound of fries that come with it. Nice, big burger perfectly seasoned and cooked. It's always satisfying and you leave full. Good quality beef that they use. I've always felt comfortable being up here where people look out for you and care for you. Great place! The other foods kind of have a gourmet touch to them so not your everyday bar food. read more

A buddy and myself have been doing this place for lunch for the last three months or so. We have still not gotten through all the menu items. We keep getting interrupted by daily specials that are always very good! Yesterday it was Brisket on a flat bread with a mango sauce, onions and tomatoes. Yummy! Oh and the servers that I have met so far, Lauren, Dee and Stephanie are all very bright and gave us great service. They go out of their way to do so. The owner has also came out of the kitchen to make sure we have enjoyed our meals. How often do you see that at the average place? On thursday the lunch special was Surf and Turf for $10.00. Crab Stuffed Shrimp, strip steak with steamed Asparagus and a Chipotle sauce. Sooo good we called out the chef, Chad, and thanked him! read more

Grindstone Tap House - Surf and Turf for lunch special! - New American Near Me - Berea, Ohio

The Wife is a Cleveland native, so we periodically take the Family Oblication to see The Grandma and family. At times the only return flight is early in the morning, and it's better to stay at an airport hotel than wake The Girls up at 3:30 am. We didn't know if our hotel had a restaurant (it did), so we looked around the area for something to eat. The mexican restaurant in the area apparently closed, and as the building next to it said 'Tap House' in the name, I was curious what liquid may flow from the tap. When we first walked in, we were a little put upon because it looked more like a bar than a restaurant. We were about to leave, but a waitress caught up to us and said she had a table outside for us if we'd like. Sure, we're here. We ask for the menu and beer list, and are rather blown away by both. Dozens of beers, complete with the type of beer and ABV (very important to know that). Lots of different types of American food, almost all of them would be worth trying. We pick some interesting brews and order burgers for dinner. These burgers are unbelievably huge, and really good. Dripping with juice, toppings and very tasty fries, I felt like a damn slug when we left. The kids loved their ice cream. I won't sugar coat it, some of the clientele are not exactly from the upper floors of the Key Tower, The Wife was tempted to cover The Daughters' ears more than once. However, they and the staff were friendly to us, and we had great beers and burgers (which is what I'd hope you'd hope for from a tap house). read more

The former Scoundrels Bar and Grill has upgraded in my opinion. I don't ever remember the former having such a diverse and tasty menu but The Grindstone Tap House has just that. You really can't go wrong with anything if you're looking for excellent gastropub fare. This place has always been a great spot to watch a game but I'm impressed with what they've done with the outdoor patio area. For as long as I've come to this place I can't ever remember them utilizing that spot as well as they are now. It's wonderful to sit out there on a nice night and watch the game. I definitely recommend checking The Grindstone Tap House out! read more

Grindstone Tap House - The Greek Burger has a mini gyro on top of a patty. The burger was huge and delicious and the fries were tasty too! - New American Near Me - Berea, Ohio

Had our PTA holiday celebration here tonight. This place is great. The food is AMAZING. The Carolina Bbq pizza is FABULOUS. Their fresh cut fries and house made ranch dressing are a must every time I come. Giant wings, Reuben egg rolls, Mediterranean pizza, rice bowl and so much more are all things we enjoyed tonight. We had Katie as our server and she was fantastic. Very attentive, very personable and just overall a pleasant person. Will definitely be back. What a fun evening of delicious food, fun and fellowship we had. Will be back for future events!! read more

Update. 2nd visit. I visited a second time with friends. The service was slightly better but I just don't understand how they do things there. It seems very disorganized and nobody knows what the other person is doing. The food is pretty good though. I'll give them that. But the guy who took my order at the bar never asked where I was sitting and just walked away. (I was clearly not sitting at the bar but I did not have waitress service) Later, I saw him offering my food to another patron who was understandably confused. He never asked for me by name, (which he had bc he put the purchase on my tab that I had open). He then asked me if it was my food. He never mentioned my name, he just randomly offered it to people until he got the right person. Who does this??? Later I asked another bartender for a draft list. She handed it to me and left. She never allowed me to make a purchase. Then of course, you have to get somebody else's attention which is next to impossible there. This place is just strange. It's the example of disorganized inefficiency. read more

Stayed at the airport and found this on a Google search. Excellent mushroom and Swiss burger. Fries were outstanding - not greasy but perfect.The Italian Wedding soup was great. Prices are more than reasonable. read more

Staying overnight near the Cleveland Airport and found this place online. EXCELLENT burger. Great fries. Homemade wedding soup! Friendly service. Highly recommend. read more

The Margarita and the Mediterranean pizzas sounded good on the menu but were terrible. Way too much cheese, undercooked and are gonna need some work here before I eat another slice. Some of their other food is really good but stay away from these pizzas.b read more

Great pizza, and the staff is very attentive and friendly. Being from Texas, I was happy they had Yuengling.

Discovered this hidden gem when looking for a restaurant close to the airport to grab a quick bite. Wow. If you are a carnivore, do yourself a favor and get a burger from this place! The meat is a great quality, the patty is massive, they have all sorts of creative toppings (I had goat cheese and onion strings), they cook it to the true temperature you ask for (no over-cooking here), and they are accompanied by piping hot, perfectly crispy fries. Also, a shout out to the stellar service we got from Lauren. She made us feel welcome even though we came in when they were absolutely empty during the down time between lunch and happy hour. Cheers to that! read more

WOW, I read some of these complaints and wondered what is wrong with these people. My wife and I have gone there for a few years now and have not had any of the experiences they had. On the food complaint: They have some of the best food I have ever had in a bar. Anyone who complains about the food either a.) didn't have any, b.) was expecting 5 star food in a bar, or c.) just is a chronic complainer, which I am siding with. If you search the other comments by some of these folks you will see this issue. I have NEVER had a bad meal here. Somethings I will not order again just because they are not to my liking but they were not bad food. Their wings are good, not the best I have had but they are wings. Their pizza is amazing, made in a brick oven. And their entrees are amazing. My favorite is the pork chop, or the Sea Bass. The Manager complaint: yes this bar does a lot of fund raisers and that helps keep them in business. We have walked in many times and never had bad service or a bad experience. As far as them telling you on the phone they have a fundraiser, who are you the Queen of Sheba? They have a business to run and do a very good job at it. I have yet to see the manager be rude to anyone unless they deserved it. Sounds like the best thing for you is to go somewhere else and drink and complain there. To the ladies who saw the men and walked out: I completely understand your complaint. I have shown up and seen some unsavory groups and went somewhere else, no problem. There are nights where motorcycle groups come in for bike night and I don't feel comfortable. I would suggest you try it on another night, because I think you might be surprised. We love this place, the food is great, the drinks are excellent, the beer is cold, and if you get Tera as a server, treat her right because she is a peach. Also, try them on a Sunday for brunch 11 am. the best breakfast you can ever get for $5.00. We are there almost every Sunday. read more

Very delicious food served in a timely way at the right temperature by a friendly staff. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Hope they keep their chef. He is a marvel. read more

Not your average bar food!! It may look like a generic bar, but the food is far from that - high quality dishes at very reasonable prices. I recommend any of the pizzas, the pot roast, or the BBQ Mac and cheese. All amazing. read more

Great food! Friendly staff! I was there for the first time a couple nights ago to see one of my favorite bands. We got there plenty early to get a table and eat before the band took the stage. There were about 5 servers on hand, ready for a big crowd later, but the odd part is that none of them seemed to have a dedicated section. We'd order a drink and no sooner would our server walk away when a different girl would come up to see if we wanted another drink. Nothing wrong with that though, right? Too much service is a good thing! Well...it can backfire...and I'll get to that later! The menu looked fantastic! Not your typical bar food fare! While I wanted to try one of EVERYTHING, my husband and I opted to split the Apple Spinach-Chorizo Flat Bread and the Smoked Gouda Grilled Cheese. The Flat Bread came out first. Wow! A crispy Flat Bread topped with not-too-spicy chorizo, spinach, mozzarella, provolone & goat cheese, Granny Smith apples....drizzled with a maple glaze. The tanginess of the goat cheese blended perfectly with the sweet crunchy apples and the kick of the chorizo! And the maple glaze just brought it all together! The Smoked Gouda Grilled Cheese?!?! Holy yumminess!!! Joining the smoked Gouda between the sourdough bread were bacon and Granny Smith apples! On the side was strawberry jam for dipping. Again, the salty, smoky bacon paired perfectly with the sweet apples and jam! The house made chips were fantastic as well! Fresh and crispy! The place filled up quickly as show time approached. Not everyone had a table, some were standing, mainly by the bar area. And this is where the the service overkill went completely south. I was in need of another beverage and there were NO servers on the floor. After about 15 minutes of not seeing anyone, I noticed they were ALL behind the bar, filling orders of the guests gathered around the bar! What the?!?? Why are there 6 bartenders while nobody's taking care of the tables? Those in the dining area were just out of luck! Most of the other guests had the same reaction as I did. You could see everyone looking around for a server with their empty glasses in front of them. When one of the servers finally emerged, she went straight for a group of guys standing around and took their drink order! Really? They're standing 10 feet from the bar! They can walk over and order for themselves! Take care of your tables! After too long of a wait, we finally got one of the girls' attention and received another beverage. This hiccup was the ONLY thing that knocked this review from 5 stars to 4. And while I probably sounded really harsh just now, it wasn't a HUGE deal and I'm thinking that on a night where they don't have a big event it wouldn't be that way. I would just think that having dedicated sections would've avoided this issue. As far as the entertainment....The sound was great for both bands. Good lighting too! No complaints at all in that department! Overall my first experience at Scoundrel's was a great one! I will definitely be back to work my way around that awesome menu!!! read more

We ordered a few different flavors of wings and they all ended up tasting like buffalo sauce only. We also grabbed a pizza and it was very sweet. In the end we ended up being disappointed with all of our food. read more

Ordered the takeout Thanksgiving dinner this year from these guys. Wow, this was one of the best Thanksgiving meals I've ever had! Everything's was excellent. Turkey, stuffing, green beans, sweet potatoes, salad, it was all perfect. Thank you so much, it made the day. read more

To start off on a good note before it goes downhill, we were seated quickly and our waitress was very nice. Now to start off, we waited at least a half an hour for our food, probably more, then when our food arrived, we decided we wanted more chips. We asked our waitress and she complied yet we never received our order. We arrived at around 5:15 and planned on leaving around 6:45, due to a planned evening but ended up leaving around 7, making us late to our plans. The food was ok but definitely not worth the wait. I would suggest somewhere else. read more

Very disappointing! Came highly recommended and aside from the service, Laura was excellent and tried to make things right, our afternoon was a disaster. Gyro platter tasted off but my bad, I ate it anyway. Got sick late the same night. Fries were over cooked and luke warm. Wedding soup was excellent but ordered a bowl and only got a cup. Thank you Laura for correcting. Food for our party of 8 came out at different times for everyone. I realize there was a funeral reception going on at the same but that is not an excuse. WON'T BE BACK! read more

I wasn't happy with this order. I ordered through Grubhub & I really wanted something sweet to eat. So I thought I would order the the Apple pie cobbler & the wings with honey barbecue sauce. The wings was overcook. The apple cobbler was bland & disgusting. The best tasting thing was the celery. I will not order from this restaurant anymore. read more

The fried cookie dough is fantastic! Fried dough around cookie dough served with caramel and a glass of milk. The waitress was excellent, our food was as yummy. If you're waiting to go the airport, it's a must stop. read more

Food is always great. My favorite is the short rib hash. Wednesday night is taco night and they always have a unique selection. The pizza is some of the best in the area. The only downside is seating in both the restaurant side and bar side can be very noisy. read more

I'd like to tell you how the food is but the service was so bad we left after waiting 20 minutes to even have our drink order taken. Not worth your time. We wound up at the Cornerstone Brewing Company in Berea and enjoyed a great meal and their beer sampler. read more

Just had the steak salad. Steak was tender in a simple salad. Service was good. Our friends had the burgers which were awesome.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE UNPROFESSIONAL MANAGER. My boyfriend.friend and myself decide it would be enjoyable to go out for karaoke and some pool we call here and there and this place. Unknown guy picks up phone and says yes they have pool and karaoke and it starts around 10. Best to get there around 9 930 he says to me. So we get there about 10 30 . To the left they were having some kind of . "Party" children and parents and gift baskets. So we walk over to the left in which we see and open area for pool. We get closer and realize that the table is against the wall. So we go over to the bar and order drinks and then inquire about the table. We notice the karaoke dj was setting up a small area next to the open area. Still plenty of room for other activities. So the bartender man comes back and says ooh no pool because of the foundraiser. While we have been in the establishment for some time the people were slowly disipating, especially the ones with children. So I was a little irritated that they would tell me that this place had certain amenities and not mention you are having a foundraiser going on and that the normally amenities would not be available. So as time passes it's about 11 1130 and karaoke is just starting and people still slowly leaving so I ask again about the pool still no and service by the man bartender made us feel unwanted and like he had something much more important to do like walk around with scissors in his back pocket. Ha. So my friend sings his songs and like 4 people. Then he goes up for another. The dj says he is going on break. After about 10 mins of karaoke .the guy comes back and it seems the karaoke was over or they didn't want my friend singing again.which his next song was going to be smashing pumpkins. So as I was about to cash out and sign my tab I just wanted to take the manager on a professional level and discuss the poor service mind you I had 2 drinks the whole night. So he comes out I take him to the side for a quiet more appropriate approach. I told him why i was taking him aside that hes the manager im a paying customer and i just wanted to tell him about my poor service and how we were treated. Then I proceeded to tell the story . I called up here for pool and karaoke and they said yes and didn't mention that there was a foundraiser.... and he cuts me off and says well he wouldn't mention that! I asked why I didn't get a straight answer. He was very hostile and rude for being a manager he couldn't handle this situation professinally. He asked if you want the table moved we'll move it . I said no the isn't the issue any more I just want you to know as a paying customer how I feel and that I was treated poorly. He proceeded to walk away from me. He I guess was going to move the table I said hey don't walk away I didn't even finish and he inquired about the table again and I say no. He walks over to my boyfriend and friend and complains about me tells bar to cut me off lolz. My tab was petty. And proceeds to move the table. I signed my tab no tip and left. The manager is seriously rude and completely unprofessional. read more

This is very much a corner bar in its clientele and atmosphere. So don't be surprised if you get a loud voice (but friendly) booming across the bar. But the food is far from the average burger and fries. This place has some good specials and some unique food selections. They have a delicious Carolina Pulled Pork sandwich with a tangy sauce, goat cheese and caramelized onions. It's served on a toasted brioche bun. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. They also offer a Pulled Pork Mac-N-Cheese fondue that is rich and creamy and topped with toasted bread crumbs all baked in the oven. The portion size feeds two easily. It's $10.00 and worth every penny. The servers are friendly and efficient. We have just started to eat our way through the menu, enjoying each and every bite. Can't wait to go back. read more

I have lived near Scoundrels for a long time and the place was never anything to write home about. However, they have really done well with these most recent changes. Lots of unusual things on the menu. Not your typical bar food but more kicked up a few notches. My friend and I sampled several things on the menu - the chicken nachos, plain jane burger and I can't even remember what else we had but it was all really good. There really is something for most everyone on the menu. Haven't tried the pizza that they brought in the brick oven for but I'm sure I will soon. The staff was very friendly and courteous. they didn't care that we took a long time to order (we talked more than we studied the menu!) There were people of all adult ages there and I really didn't get the "meat market" feel from the place. I will be back. read more

Great little spot with no wait time on Friday night...until more people read this :) I had the stuffed chicken and three people I was with had different burgers including the Gyro burger and Smokehouse burger. All good reviews. Good beer selection including local drafts, too. read more

I've been there a few times and the food is good and the beer is cold. It seems like the crowd is mostly 55+. It's a big bar and they usually have something going on even if it's a private party. read more

The food is amazing. Watch your money. They take your card to start a tab. I paid in cash. They ran my card anyway and wrote in a tip. This is the second time something like this happened to me. Back at the holidays, I purchased the Christmas breakfast and dinner. I paid for the biscuits and gravy a la carte. I bought gift cards to pay for everything because for every $100 you spend, you got $25 free. I should have had a gift card for over $100 after paying for everything. I have to to a friend because they eat there often. There was $0 on the gift card. The taste of the food is not worth how much they've hosed me out of money. I called the next day. They said they'd look at the till. They NEVER called me back. I called today and the owner, Bob, called me sweetheart, a liar, and told me to "eff" off. He told me he had 4 witnesses hearing the conversation (his side) and wouldn't remain calm enough to talk through the matter as a respectful adult. read more

Tuesday bike night is amazing here. Too many bikes to count. I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger. Temperature ordered was medium. It came out exactly as I ordered it.

This place is awesome. The owners had another restaurant in Broadview Heights where we live and we loved that one as well. When they sold that place we followed them to Scoundrels and it's great. We go pretty much every Monday night for burger night, they are terrific. Lots of good beers on tap and the service is great. We want to go to Bike Night during the summer. Can't go wrong here. read more
