I love this place!! Yeah they have regular bar food like wings and burger but I swear these cooks put some type of love drug in here because I can't stop coming back for more! And this is the one place that serve tator tots!!!! I would definitely recommend anyone to try the loaded carnivore tots!! These tots are served with corned beef and an over easy egg! The menu is accommodating to healthy eaters as well with heart healthy salads that is full of delicious toppings depending on which one you get. And if you have to modify your foods to be grilled or steamed they will do just that! My friends and I have been coming here every week for the past year and this place still never disappoints! read more

The food was actually ok. I always laugh at Irish Pubs that have things like Irish Egg Rolls, and Tacos on the menu. But I get it Irish fare is a little self limiting. I had a wrap. It was definitely filling, and the tots were good. Nothing special. The salads looked pretty good. I feel like this place wants to be both an Irish Pub and a Sports Bar. So there's lots of TVs running which is fine, but distracting and not conducive to conversation like you would find in, for example, a pub in Ireland. The deal breaker for me was the music. They have one of those machines where the patrons can put on whatever asinine music they want. OK fine, but an hour straight of Beavis and Butthead style death metal!?! Really. Given the setting people go here expecting, ya' know, IRISH music. Maybe a little pop stuff. But screeching aggressive discordant death metal for an hour just so one table of goof balls can mouth the words at each other and bob their heads. Good grief. It would be unforgivable if somebody came in and played an hour of Baby Shark. How does the management not understand that it is just as unappealing to hear somebody screaming in Swedish? I'm not telling you how to run your nearly empty, three-star establishment, but I'm sure that off-putting niche music isn't helping pack the joint. read more

It was nice, I had Hooley Hunks and fries, it would be great if they had a bigger selection of desserts.

Service was poor- messed up our order, pizza was burnt, server mixed up the bills (we were a party of 17), tried to charge for a side which never came. Handicapped spaces are far from the entrance. read more

Came here as one in a total of 50 people. They weren't expecting us but they rose to the challenge of taking care of 24 kids and 26 adults. Everyone was happy with their meals and the beers were quick and cold. I personally ate vegetarian (can't remember what the item was called-something on naan bread). I would highly recommend the meal and the sweet potato fries were fantastic. read more

Last night went to the bar to wait for the family, and the bartender became our best friend. Nice, friendly and knowledgeable. Then with the family I ordered the fish and taster tots, excellent. Better than my husband's fries. Worth visiting again, specially the bar read more

Hooley House Brooklyn - Irish Near Me - Brooklyn, Ohio

Our party of 6 definitely liked Hooley House Brooklyn. The waitress was totally cool about taking lunch orders from 6 very talkative and completely distracted old friends (we were pretty bad). We hung out for over 2 hours and we were never rushed. The house chardonnay was nice (and the pour was generous) and the tap beer was fresh and cold. For lunch, I had the corned beef Irish Sliders and I can't stop thinking about them! The corned beef had an amazing crisp on the edges that must have come from the griddle. Holy cow, it was good! read more

Been here a bunch of times. Lately Ive been here more because its a central spot to meet family coming from all over. Food is good. Server girl are always awesome but last Saturday they were out of steak and bluberries for Bumbleberry. Last time (after and Irish funeral) they were out of Powers. I dont drink Jameson. Thats for sloppy frat boys. The servers on both occasions said they had been out even the day before. With an Aldi right up the block what does it take to get blueberries and steak?? And the whiskey? Thats just unacceptable... read more

Quite possibly one of my favorite bars. The staff are all great and attentive. The food is great. They also have a Hooley Rewards card I def recommend getting. The more you drink and eat there....the more you earn. The new fireplace patio is also great. A ton of daily specials including tall drafts during all Cleveland sporting events. read more

OH NO.........The food is horrid! Never again. if you cca not cook simple wings correctly, then you shouldn't be cooking AT ALL. I have never had such nasty wings in my life. NO THANKS. WON'T BE UTILIZIN THESE BUSINESS AGAIN. I wish I could just give ZERO STARS. read more

We visited Hooley on a Wednesday around 6 pm while the Indians were in the middle of winning Game 5 of the division series. I didn't think we'd get a table anywhere, but this place (although it was packed) is HUGE and we were greeted and seated immediately. The first thing I noticed was the decorations. Someone went to a lot of trouble to make the place look extra Halloween-y (Halloweenie? Can I say that on Yelp?). It was really festive and fun and I very much enjoyed the little alcove we sat in. The seats were very comfortable and I felt like I was in someones house, just relaxing. Great views of the TV from everywhere in the place and although it was crowded and loud, it wasn't deafening. Our service was excellent. Very attentive server who checked on us regularly but didn't hassle us when we wanted to sit too long and watch the end of the game. The kitchen kept up with the rapid pace and servers were busy running but also adding to the excitement of the Tribe win. Pounding on the wall, chanting with us... they made it a really fun atmosphere. I'm so glad we picked Hooley to watch the game. Our food was awesome. We started with the Irish Egg Rolls, which were about the best thing I've eaten all month. Corned beef, sauerkraut, and swiss cheese all rolled up and deep fried to perfect golden deliciousness. Served with a tangy 1000 Island sauce that was lip smacking. The pair was only $8.50 and was really quite enough for 4 people to share. The boyfriend really loved the Hooley Club sandwich and my Fish and Chips were cooked perfectly. I can't wait to go back. Perhaps for Game 1 of the World Series??!!! read more

This place is a great sports bar off the highway- convenient while traveling through Cleveland. Get the Hooley Hunks! Delicious! We also loved their corned beef sliders... Their "Perfect Snack" featured both sliders & hunks.. Served alongside crispy onion rings. read more

I don't know why this place doesn't have more stars. I order from Hooley's a fair amount, now that we all have to stay home. If you want corned beef and potato pancakes, this is your place. It comes fast, everything is there, and it's very good. And dependable, which is what my soul needs right now. I think you can even get some toilet paper, if you need it. It's a one stop place for comfort. read more

I've been a customer of Hooley House since 2009. I am so pleased by their amazing service. I'm making this post because #1 I'm a huge supporter of HH and #2 today when my husband ordered carry out from HH, we were surprised by the random act of kindness from their staff by placing a roll of toilet paper in our bag. I'm so grateful for something so simple during these trying times. read more

One and done. Horrible service and food was terrible. Not a fan of Irish food I went with friends. I ordered a veggie wrap and could have bought the extra salty Morningstar black bean burger myself. Too loud to have a conversation at our table and we were one of two tables in the bar area. Did I mention that service was horrible? Would not recommend. read more

Drink, but don't eat there. Patio is nice to meet friends on a warm night... to drink only.

Stopped in for a quick late lunch after picking up family from airport. Place was big, has a bar side and a dining room side. Liked the stone look.. Both rooms are full of televisions all over from all angles. Dan was our server/waiter and was on top of everything from start to finish. Great job!! Ordered buffalo chicken dip & plain tater tots for table. Full platter of tots cooked perfectly & the buffalo dip was plentiful & was enjoyed by all 4 of us. No pictures today sorry Wife had a Cobb salad with chicken & all was good till she found a fatty piece of chicken after eating maybe a 1/3rd of salad. She's was done after finding the fatty piece, just how she always has been. Hence the 4 star rating... Truth be told, I had cooked 2 pieces of blackened salmon at home & added to an organic spring mix salad with homemade mozzarella, a sliced avocado & tomato's. Was a great healthy late breakfast. So I just had an order of cheese curds, which were great. Hard to mess those up, have never had a bad cheese curd . The travelers, on the other side of the table each had a salad & a large order of Hooley hunks w/firecracker sauce. They both ate everything & said it was great. They had been here before & knew the menu & what they liked. So overall a great quick lunch, all staff was friendly and very accommodating. Thank you & stay safe!! read more

Good food with great service ! I came with a date and we wanted to experience to the fullest ! The actual place is huge and has plenty of seating. The number of TVs is too many to count, a great location to catch any type of sporting event. The server was nice and welcoming, took our order in perfect time. The food was good across the board from app. to entrée. I would recommend the hooley house corn beef sandwich, the cheddar bacon burger, and the French onion soup. The portions are very large and go with an excellent price , plenty of take home food. Overall a good experience. Only comment would be to narrow down the menu. The menu is huge, my opinion is that a smaller menu would increase the quality of the food. read more

Hooley House Brooklyn - Cheddar bacon burger with fries! Perfectly cooked and tasty ! - Irish Near Me - Brooklyn, Ohio

Date/Time: Thursday 5pm -- 1st time visit My reviews come with a caveat when warranted. The Hooley House is a place you'd go to get Irish food. So if you order non-Irish menu items, you might not be getting "the full experience". That said, if a restaurant only excels in their particularly themed items, they shouldn't have a four page, widely varied menu. That out of the way, it was advertised Build Your Own 1.2 pound "hooley burger" as a happy hour special. So yeah, burgers are a good litmus test for any restaurant, so okay. I order a burger with bacon, mushrooms and onions. Pretty simple. Waitress comes back and says they're out of mushrooms. That soured me because I love mushrooms to an obsessive extent. Okay fine, slap an egg on it. Well, burger comes and egg is overcooked as in no runny yolk. The gooey yolk is the entire reason for putting egg on a burger. The meat had relatively no taste to it as if it were completely unseasoned before cooking and it was medium, not "still mooing" medium rare as I requested. My companion had wings, the firecracker sauce. He said they were okay but as I've mentioned in other reviews, he pretty much eats anything so his reviews aren't quite as discerning. As I initially wrote, maybe if I'd went here with a bunch of people to drink Irish beer and eat Irish food, I'd have had a better experience so Yelp readers, if that's what you're after, your mileage may vary. Service was okay, though one waitress was in tight NIKE yoga pants which last I checked weren't really for work. Also something funny that happened here - I flipped open the lid to the ketchup and without my even squeezing it, holding it upright, it starts squirting out and goes into my palm and all down my arm. I'm not sure if it was filled too fully or what, but I've never that that happen before, lol. read more

Very friendly staff and the Irish egg rolls are the bomb!! Everything I've gotten from here has been delicious and the drinks are always good too ;) read more

We ordered take out lastnight. I ordered a double cheeseburger. In the comments I asked for it to be plain with extra cheese. I dont know why they have a comment section if they do not review it before making the order. My burger was plain but with lettuce all over stuck in my cheese all over the container. Clearly it was not made right, and a new one was not made it was cleaned off halfass and sent on its way. Thanks for sending me a half scrapped off burger. I went to bed hungry. Will think twice before ordering pick up clearly they don't care out the orders that won't get eaten there. read more

Hooley House Brooklyn - Supposed to be plain. Scrapped off some of the cheese too, the rest was left with lettuce stuck in it. Very disappointed. - Irish Near Me - Brooklyn, Ohio

UPDATE: Now the latest is that the acclaimed Irish Bar" discontinued their well established "Irish Wednesday " specials. Gone are the Guinness & Jameson specials. Surprise to all the long time regulars. Hooley has officially "jumped the shark". No wonder patronage is scare in the evenings. Might as well close at 8 pm since only the day time crowd seems to matter anymore. As for $6 Guinness drafts, those can be found anywhere and you actually get them in Guinness glassware at other establishments. No need to come to Hooley for that. Now, there are still some nice staff here but the price points really equate to a less desirable experience. This used to be one of my favorite sipping posts but I don't so many kinds words as of late. It's hard to argue that it is a better place or experience from what it was in year one. The only constant is that is the head scratching changes. When the Brooklyn location opened in 2014 there was so much more to love about the place. They were open to 0230 every night and offered great, friendly service & prices. They tried different entertainment such as open mic Mondays. They formerly had one of the best perk programs around. Now even that is half of what it used to be. Plus the prices have soared. The few specials they had are all but gone. They rarely offer new draft selections. And the live entertainment is all but extinct. There's not much incentive for stopping by at 10 pm on a Friday or after 7 pm most days. It seems like they bank on St. Paddy's Day and football Sundays to carry them through the year. Why not do more to draw people in all year round? What happened to the regular Friday/Saturday bands? Overall, Hooley Brooklyn lacks an identity and direction. It doesn't even seem like an Irish bar most days. The last time they played Irish music was probably March 17. But, they sure like to play plenty of pop/dance music. By the way, what kind of Irish bar doesn't offer Harp on draft? They can't even pour a true half and half draft! Brooklyn is the only Hooley, out of the 4 locations, that doesn't offer Harp on draft. And what's the allure of the roof top inflatables? That doesn't seem to draw more people in. Maybe the increased prices go to pay for the increased placement of inflatables! read more

Let me give you a clue.... upon walking in, many staff were on break, outside, on the regular patio, smoking cigarettes. I walked in to get a table for six. This was around 10pm ... well after dining hours. It took the hostess several minutes to even walk over to great us. Immediately she told me that we probably would not be able to get a table and shrugged... as if she could literally care less. Looking at the seating chart I immediately saw 4 tables unseated. I looked around and saw where they were. So I inquired about the seating. She told me that they were 4 tops and probably couldn't find any chairs to make tables. Yadda yadda. She just did not care about us at all. A second hostess came up and I expressed my concern about not feeling welcome and I explained how we had wanted a table. Long story short, this was my first time here and my first impression with the hosts was awful. WHY I HAD 5O WORK SO HARD TO GIVE THEM BUSINESS IS BEYOND ME. I ended up expressing my feelings towards the manager but by that point we had made a decision to go across the street to TGIF. We had wanted to celebrate a family moment and the service here was anything but welcoming. I highly discourage you from attending this place. It's horrible. One of the worst places I've ever been to and by far the worst Yelp review I've had to write in a long time. read more

I really like Hooley House. It has a good menu with a nice selection of foods to choose from. It's not expensive. The food always tastes great. I like to order the nachos (with shredded cheese not melted) because they are mounded up with all the fixings. The wings are great. The burgers are great. I actually haven't had anything off of the menu that I didn't like. Their is a full service bar and they usually have some very good and Interesting beers on tap. They regularly have live bands also. If you go during lunchtime ask if Jaimie is there...if so ask for "Jaimie's fruit punch".....it's the adult version of Hawaiian Punch!! Soooo good!! read more

I came to Yelp to specifically write a review because the food was so bad. My daughters and I were in the area and stopped for lunch (our first time). I had the wings and I swear, I have never had chicken wings so bad. I don't know how you can mess them up but I think they literally just dipped naked wings in grease, then added some bland salad dressing to them and called them "done". I actually told the server they were terrible and she brought me another flavor - even worse. My daughters had 2 burgers and it looked like the meat was the wrong color (greyish) - I don't even know how else to describe it. Needless to say I will never return. It makes no sense how bad the food was. If you cant get a burger and wings right, what the heck is going on in the kitchen? read more

Dump. If the lackluster food is not annoying enough (this version of shepherd's pie was an abomination), the random unannounced overcharges for substitutions and preferential treatment to regulars will do it. FTP. read more

Went to the Grande Opening Party for the newest Hooley House, on Cascade Crossing, behind TGIFridays in Brooklyn. Just off 480 & Tiedeman. The big Hooley House is the 2nd site for owners John & Colleen Reece, Richie & Christina Reece, Paul & Peggy Baker and Ward Lawson. Food was good - love their Turkey Pretzel Roll, tator tots, and to have a sembalnce of health, a side salad. Full complement of beers on tap, in bottle and all the top shelf liquors. Plenty of seating and a pation with a fire pit. They will soon have Smithwicks too. Staff very friendly, 55 tv screens - the best of Irish pubs meets the best of Sports pubs. had a great time and will go back, often. read more

I've eaten here several times for lunch and most recently for my moms birthday dinner. I have found the food to be very good, especially the turkey sandwich on a pretzel roll. When my moms Shepards Pie came out cold, Jason the DM bent over backwards to make it right for us. I would recommend the Hooley House as a good place to eat with several very good menu choices at a fair price. The gestures Jason made to make my moms meal right were just another reason I will be back. Well done! read more

Good beer, horrible food..................................ok server....................nothing else too say

Visited because they were one of the few places open late and walking distance from my hotel. I sure am glad I did. Stephanie was very helpful when it came to selecting my meal. I went with the Irish Boxty. This has got to be the best Boxty I have ever eaten. I will be returning next time I am in town. read more

Tonight I dropped my cat off in the ER and I was totaling bumming. I couldn't figure out how to order ice cream on the app. I'm pathetic, I know. I called for help but was I was just frustrated and found myself balling my eyes out about my day and not getting any ice cream. I ordered my meal and when it arrived they had included ice cream in my order. It was super nice and not necessary but completely appreciated. Thank you guys so so much! read more

We enjoyed it. We came in on a Thursday evening and the patio was pretty full but we sat inside at the bar. We had the corned beef egg rolls and nachos. The egg rolls were very tasty! The nachos needed more cheese despite the bartender telling us there was adequate cheese and they were a bit greasy. We also enjoyed two apple pie shots and they turned into an apple pie martini. Out of the two, the shot was better but would've been great chilled. All in all, it was a nice new experience. read more

Came once and im not thrilled at the take on irish food. None of the descriptions really appealed. Settled for beer and a burger. The birger was alright. Very basic stuff and nothing to write home about even for bar food. read more

I had heard about their wings from coworkers and decided to try them out.DH and I visited on early Friday evening. They had live music band and happy hour was until 7p. The drink and appetizer specials were decently priced for happy hour. The wings bone in and boneless were very good. The drink was made right and the atmosphere was great. The only thing negative I can say about this place ...when we placed our order the server made it seem like fries came with our meal and that when we asked to substitute fries for a house salad that would be ok, but then when our check arrive we were charged for a house salad. Overall, good place. read more

I've talked about their nacho's may times since visiting. Alas, it was because I think they were the worst nacho's we've ever had. Nacho's. I mean, seriously...how can that even go wrong? We were there with a group and as a drinking establishment, I think it's A-OK. We were there and had appetizers only, which resulted in plenty of fried and previously frozen foods as well as the aforementioned nachos. Not worth dinner, but go ahead and head over there for a game. read more

Definitely a mixed bag. We came at happy hour on a Friday...with a party of 6. It's an after work celebration to boot so we were ready to socialize AND drink! 2 hours and $100 later...our table wasn't cleared, we remain thirsty, and decided to go down the street. I spent a bill myself (with 20% tip) plus my 5 friends averaged $40 tabs themselves with drinks and appetizers. I shared our reason for leaving with our server and the manager who served us two flights while our server was elsewhere. I also appreciate that management apologized (someone called off and they had huge business party in main hall) but at the end of the day...I just wanted to have fun and celebrate my co-worker's new opportunity. But If we had ordered from the bar while occupying floor space...we'd be &$$holes. So we hoped it would get better...and it didn't...so we left. I just thought y'all should know. #hooleyhouse #brooklyn #2starexperience read more
