My husband and I ate here today. OMG the best hamburgers ever. The taste of the sauce and all the other toppings, it came together perfectly. It was very busy because of the $10 burger, but our waitress from the bar area was amazing. We will return!! Robin F read more

Went with our daughter's to enjoy one of the CLE Burger week specials at 5:45PM. Stood at bar for an hour and were eventually told there was no silverware, menus and the kitchen was asking staff to no longer seat people. Then when sharing our frustration was told that is was 2h to closing and that due to being short-staffed, apparently we were asking a lot for to be seated as a "large party" after a busy weekend. We were at that moment told a table was available. We ultimately paid the bar tab and left to have dinner at Nuevo Acapulco. Guess we need to be sure to arrive earlier than 3h before closing next time. read more

I love gunselmans! It's a local bar that's been in Fairview forever. The food is always great. And I love the patio! We pop in here frequently, mainly because it's so close to home and I love sitting out on the patio. My only complaint is the service...it can be hit or miss. The burgers are always good. And I love their appetizers. They can get pretty busy especially on the weekends. read more

3rd time visiting always great food, service by staff or bartenders, and they have a great outdoor patio. I was here for burger week. I got the "Lil G" it was good, but the steak soup, was fantastic. read more

We came on a Saturday night and were able to get a seat. It was busy, but not overly packed. Per our servers suggestion, I tried the beef stroganoff and my husband had a burger. Both were tasty and flavorful. We both had a little bit of leftovers so I would say the portion sizes were good too. read more

It is hard to find a restaurant that stays open after 10 pm around the airport. We chose this place since it was close to the hotel for quick bite. It is an Irish pub that people like their burgers. I chose Gold Jacket because of the Wagyu Patty. It was delicious though little bit greasy. The fires were so fresh that I ate them all. There are more burgers to chose from. Maybe next trip when I am in town. read more

Unfortunately walked in here yesterday at around 330pm and it wasn't busy at all. We sat ourselves per the sign to seat yourself. Two servers in the back room area continued to walk by the table and no one bothered to wait on us. After a good 15 minutes we just got up and left. Very unfortunate especially since it wasn't busy at all. read more

Gunselmans, a neighborhood staple. We usually walk to the end of the street and it's like stepping into the bar of a friend, always packed with familiar faces. In the summer we love the patio, especially because our dog gets to sit on the patio, where she thinks the fries and cheese sauce are unlimited. In the summer, the lobster roll is my go to, buttery and full of flavor with a side sweet potato tots, soft and golden. In the fall I love the vegan burger patty or the fish fry with fresh cut fries and coleslaw, I could recite the menu but if you haven't already been to Gunselmans then make your way for their award winning burger, beers on tap or the queen of hearts. It's a gem.. read more

Gunselmans is a neighborhood tavern that serves great food. They have a outdoor patio. It's been in business since the 1930's. I've had many of the menu items over the years. Everything is awesome! The service is always friendly and attentive. Tonight I had the pierogi melt burger. The bun is 2 large pierogies. It had provolone cheese and grilled onions. It came with peppers and onions on saurkraut. I added mushrooms. Plus it came with a cup of smoky sour cream. It's definitely a place worth checking out. All read more

INSTANT CLASSIC! The beautiful atmosphere and bar was fabulous. Our food was a culinary experience of exponential flavors! And our server, Miss Izzy, was a delight! We stopped here after our son celebrated a geocaching milestone, finding at least one cache for 1,000 days in a row! That's right, he found geocaches for 2.74 years EVERYWHERE DAY! My wife's meal, the OG! She loved every bite! My son's hangover burger was mighty tasty as well! My corned beef hash was tantalizingly delicious as every bite was delicious!! Don't worry, we'll be eating at this establishment again soon!! read more

The cheeseburger lived up to the hype, it was excellent. We both had them. They have a dozen or so of different varieties. We sat outside on the patio. Nice area. Pets are allowed so we brought our Saylor!! Parking no problem. There is parking on both streets and they have their own lot as well. Would go back again in a heartbeat/ read more

Came on a Saturday night. There was about a 30 min wait. They have tables indoors as well as a patio. We ordered the pierogi lady pierogis appetizer, the Big G Burger, and Paprikash. The Pierogis came with 4 pierogies, sautéed onions, and some sour cream. The onions were sweet and perfect. The pierogis were very stuffed. The dough was a little thicker, but I think they have to since there was so much filling. Overall, a good pierogi. The Big G burger is massive. Overall a great burger. The bun was perfectly toasted. The toppings tasted fresh and didn't over take the burger. I would recommend this burger. Paprikash was a bit bland. I'm not sure if that's how Irish style is, but I've only had Hungarian style. The spaetzel was had a great texture and thickness. read more

Visited Gunselmans after reading a Reddit post regarding "best burger in Cleveland" I came here seeking a good burger as I was recently disappointed by my experience at Whitey's Tavern in Richfield. This place had a gnarly wait. Front house staff was transparent but kept pushing my party of 2 back. Lent menu was small, a few fish fry options and only one burger on the menu. I ordered the cheeseburger with everything on it. Ketchup mustard onions lettuce tomato American cheese. Burger was large and favorful. In fact you can tell its a really good mix of 80/20 because it was dripping in juices. Fries were crispy and came with just the right amount (and a pleasant surprise of nacho cheese sauce). Burger was well worth the price of only $12 and 25 min drive. I will be back. Hard to get such a good burger with fries at this price. 8.8/10 I do recommend visiting. read more

Always enjoy coming here! Today we had brunch for the first time and it was really good! We had the Ozark Benedict and the Hodge Podge with added cheese curds. Side of biscuits too. The sausage gravy is house made and delicious! The cheese curds were a great addition, yum! Next time I'll add those to the Benedict as well! The service was great as usual too! We love coming here! read more

Had a good lunch outside on their patio. Wait staff were slammed with a big party inside but they were very responsive and so nice. I have a gluten allergy and they do have gluten free buns. I had the impossible burger and the red mashed potatoes were gluten free and delish. They do NOT have a dedicated fryer so fries etc our off limits for celiac peeps. My friends had burgers .... One had them had bbq sauce on the side which he said was very good and the burger of the day was ordered with dill fries, also great. read more

We had the fish and chips along with the Cleveland sausage appetizer. Both were excellent. Portions were large and the prices were reasonable. Service was great too. read more

Terrible service, not accommodating, and disrespectful. The food is good however, but still never going back again.

Good drinks but terrible service. Waited over an hour and never got sat when there were 3 open tables. Male bartender was lovely but the others were AWFUL. Bummer!!! read more

Great very generous portions. staff is very courteous and professional. Particularly hostess/waitress named Diane who was kind enough to thoroughly wipe off outdoor seating after it had rained while we were waiting for a table. Went way out of her way to make us comfortable. Nice cozy atmosphere. read more

I kept hearing how good this place was so I came on a day that I was starving. We each got the bison burger and they brought out fries with cheese sauce. My mom and dad DO NOT eat burgers but because I said how great this place is said to be, they decided to do it. We savored Every. Single. Bite! This place was delicious. The burgers are also a great size so once I got halfway I was pretty full but I had to finish it. This place is pretty popular but it is worth the wait. read more

Door dash order. Extremely disappointed in the portion size of reuben egg roll (s) Back story is all the prices are inflated on Door Dash. Very aware. Other pubs offer this appetizer and give you 2 rolls/ 4 halves or even 3 rolls/ 6 halves for $11-$15. We ordered 2 appetizers for $14 each totaling $28. What was delivered was 2 small containers, each held 1 skimpy reuben roll cut in 1/2. As if they took one dmall order, placed in 2 containers and charged us full price for both. For nearly $30 plus fees plus tip. We ordered two other items that were very good. read more

A historic bar that has 2 different rooms inside and a patio outside. The staff is very nice and the food is very good. We got their fish fry, which was absolutely amazing. Good portion of great food for good prices. Overall, there is just a good vibe here. I would definitely go back. read more

The onion ring tower is the best app they have! The sauces that come with it are delicious and the perfect pairing. The wings are crispy, but were lacking in flavor a bit. Service was excellent and quick. read more

First time coming here and what a pleasure it was! Though it was busy (st. Patrick's day) we were sat quickly and our orders taken not long after, I ordered the classic chicken tenders and fries where my friend ordered the fish & chips. She said "they are all I could have dreamed of" and "it healed something in my soul" I had a bit and can confirm it was tender, crispy and oh so delicious!! Same goes for my tenders! They were full of flavor and very tasty! We will definitely be retuning again, we had a lot of fun and the food is very very good! read more

Been dying to try this restaurant Tavern for quite a few years and I finally got there today in one of Cleveland's worst snowstorms so the ride was a nailbiter to start with and I arrived at 1 o'clock in the parking lot, which is quite small for a restaurant of their size was full. Of course the snow did take up a couple spots and the street parking was taken up on Lorain and up the side street so I drove around for a little bit looking for some other street parking, but most of it was two hours only they need to do something about the parking lot for this restaurant. They're more than likely losing money just with this one item. So my colleague arrived and we got menus and I asked for Diet Cola no ice and since the fountain was to the left of me, I watched her put 3/4 of a glass of ice in glass and I mentioned to her I think I told you no ice didn't I? Oh yeah, I wasn't Thinking, really? And then when she brought me the Diet Cola with no ice, it wasn't diet cola it was sugar cola, and as a diabetic, I can't do that. We both ordered salads. He ordered the Cobb salad with no tomatoes, and I ordered the seasonal nut salad with no feta cheese. Both of them came with a chicken breast nicely cooked nicely sliced and nicely presented, but I only got one small container on the side of whatever dressing came with the salad and the salad was quite a large portion. I might add that the Cobb salad was also a nice portion. It came with two dressing cups on the side, but again the colleague had ordered it with no tomatoes, and there was a mountain of halved grape tomatoes and of course, I had to make mention cause I'm moving all the tomatoes to my salad which I didn't want either cause I don't eat tomatoes. It wasn't the pleasant experience I was so hoping for. I'll have to give them a second chance, but it's not gonna happen anytime soon. read more

An unusual place, but the food was good. I had Chicken and Waffles and someone else had the Hangover Burger on an English Muffin with Bacon and A Sunnyside up egg. Both were great. And if I may add, my Maple Syrup was mixed with Hot Sauce, very skillfully done. No Ambiance to speak of unless you like turn of the century decors. (I do). The service was great also, I could get used to that very easily. And it is a bar, not a chain restaurant. read more

Bought 3 perch dinners to go, the fish was overcooked. Was inedible. Ultimately gave the fish to the dog, we were able to eat only the hush puppies and the fries. How disappointing I've heard that their fish dinners were excellence far from that for us. read more

this place is phenomenal! first off, the atmosphere is awesome. really feels like hometown USA in here. everything on the menu looked and sounded amazing. i caught myself looking at all the food coming out around me to different tables and wanting to order it all. we got a variety of different things to try and everything was awesome. the plain jane burger was so good and i can't wait to come back to try more of their famous burgers. we loved the fact that the burger came with a side of cheese sauce for the fries, it was an awesome Suprise. the fries and onion rings were AWESOME, great flavor and super crispy which I love. Definitely don't skip out on the onion rings and fries. I really want to try their other sides as well now! The stuffed cabbage was so yummy, the red sauce on top was so good that I asked for an additional side of it. They were stuffed to the max and laid on top of amazing garlic mashed potatoes. everything had such great flavor. the meatloaf was also super yummy, it came with gravy but honestly dipping it in ketchup was good for me. overall, this place is worth the hype! all the food was awesome and i can't wait to come back and try more from their menu. it was a bit of a hike for me, about 30/35 minutes but I would do the drive again in a heartbeat for sure! read more

Service is always great!! They make you feel like family. The food is also great! Especially the burgers. Also great beer selection.

I went to the restaurant while having a reservation for my birthday with a few friends . The waiter and manager came to our table 3-4 times while we are still eating asking us if they could box our food because they another reservation coming soon. we were not told when making our reservation that we had a limited time there and that we should rush . this made the experience very unpleasant. read more

Staff was very friendly and attentive. Looks like a cozy old school bar inside and clean. We had the sausage platter and it was AWESOME. The wife had stuffed cabbage over mashed tatters and she said it was AWESOME. I HAD THE Cobb salad and it was one of the best I have had. Lots of big pieces of bacon, egg, avocado and it was AWESOME. Lastly I had a side of Brussels sprouts. Guess what? It was AWESOME! First time here and we will bring our south side friends here for sure. Great value and speedy service. read more

Whenever my coworkers and I need a place to eat after work, we always find ourselves at Gunselman's as they have some of the best burgers and fries around Cleveland! We all decided to create our own burgers this night - and they were all delicious. (I got bacon on mine so I think mine was the best!) The side of fries is always a good idea here - so crispy and perfectly salted, I could eat a whole bucket of these fries!! My other friend got mashed potatoes and she said they were equally as tasty! The workers here are also so lovely and helpful even when the restaurant is very packed!! If you're around Fairview Park and are in need of a good lunch, I definitely recommend stopping here and grabbing a bite to eat - you won't be disappointed! read more

Always love it here. Perfect neighborhood spot and the food is always reliably good. One of our favorites.

I have always loved this place. Burgers are phenomenal. I did get the city chicken as well, it wasn't very flavorful, or seasoned. The mashed potatoes were really lumpy. Kerri was our server. She seemed short and not happy. We were at a table and I don't know how her rotation is. But the place wasn't busy yet. I have always been a 50% tip person, today I tipped 20% I'll definitely be back. Just stick to their burgers. read more

Visiting Cleveland for the first time and this spot was highly recommended by locals on Facebook and Yelp! They have a dedicated parking lot. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. Upon entering, it definitely has the "old pub" vibe. I love all the old pics of Mr. Gunselman and the building. So cool to see the history in this establishment. Our server Izzie did a great job. We wanted to try something that we haven't seen or had before. The October burger of the month is the Roctoberfest for $18. It is served with potato pancakes and a Cleveland mustard cream sauce. This burger consists of a blend of brisket, Chuck and short rib. It is served on a pretzel bun topped with sautéed onion, cheddar cheese, spicy kielbasa medallions and Cleveland mustard cream sauce! Wow!! The flavors are amazing!! This is a MUST try!! Thank you Gunselmans for not disappointing us and providing a delicious lunch! read more
