Brunch was good, had the Kelley's breakfast(3 fluffy pancakes, eggs scrambled and bacon). Service was good. Vibes were good, we sat in the back room, which had plenty of space for the group we had. read more

We were in Gainesville for an appointment. It was lunchtime so I used Yelp to help me decide. I'm so happy we chose Kelley's Tavern & Grill. Service was excellent. Food was excellent. Many of the reviews mentioned the Reuben. I will have to go back to try it. You should bookmark this restaurant. It is worth your while. Support Local. Happy Holidays! read more

Solid upscale sports bar atmosphere with better food choices than most sports bars. Not giving 5 stars because well, that's saved for fine dining in my opinion. I got the shrimp and grits, very tasty! My husband got the French onion soup and it was average, the cheese wasn't melted and enough. Our drinks were good. Be prepared to spend more than you normally would at a sports bar but I felt the prices were fair for heat we got. Service was good, parking I could be tricky we got the last spot unless there's a back lot that I didn't see? Worth a try! read more

Enjoyed a lunch at this tavern. I had the Reuben sandwich; wife had a Patty Melt and daughter enjoyed the French Dip. Service from Joyce was good. Plenty of TVs for idle viewing. Not too loud for conversation. Recommend this place for good food and service. read more

Not too many reasonably priced Tavern lunch spots out there these days that smoke their own ribeyes & smoke brisket for their take on Philly Cheese Steak, French Dip & corned beef sandwiches, things that Kelley's Tavern does very well. We met friends for lunch on Black Friday & expected a mad house but surprisingly found the establishment not busy at all. Parking was easy in their own lot. Menu has bar food favorites including a fish & chips plate & salads. Spacious booths provide diners room to spread out & we were pleased that the tap room's TV's volume was kept to a minimum so that we could comfortably converse. Service was provided by a team of pleasant individuals. All HOT sandwiches ordered came out of the kitchen piping hot. Salad's beautifully presented & put together with fresh quality ingredients. Kelley's is a great find & we will be back. read more

In town for a tournament and was blown away with Kelley's. Specialty burgers were flavorful and great combinations of specialty toppings. The wings were ridiculously big, cooked perfectly and lots of tasty sauce. Service was great. Keep up the good work! read more

The reviews are right, the Reuben is awesome. A dozen beers on tap, good service, clean modern sports bar.

I haven't been disappointed yet with the food at this restaurant. I chose to get something different this time, and the service was quick as usual, food was ready in 15 minutes! I got the tavern salad this time and this sweet and savory salad had me wanting more. The candied pecans with the goat cheese is such a great pairing. I did choose to use my own dressing (equivalent to a balsamic vinaigrette) just because I didn't want the walnut berry vinaigrette that comes with the salad. The ambiance here is very welcoming, darker lighting setting the mood for a relaxing atmosphere with great food. read more

Visited on a Sunday while in the area for a soccer tournament. We didn't look at the hours, and therefore didn't realize that they close on Sundays at 3, after their brunch service (we walked up at 2:50, and I hate being that gal that walks in at closing). We were going to turn around and find another place, but they welcomed us in! The wings had pretty good flavor and were satisfying in a pinch. My guy had the chicken and waffles, and they smelled divine. We had some beers and were out the door in 40 minutes. Lovely place, comfy booths with a nice bar. Thank you to the wonderful staff. You guys were so friendly and accommodating! read more

I saw a review recommending the Reuben so decided to try it. I went with my wife and daughter. I had the Reuben with fries. My wife had the chicken salad sandwich on sourdough with okra. My daughter tried the fish and chips with sweet potato fries. All three were exceptional. Inside was smaller than expected, but nice and clean including the restrooms. The bartender waited on our table and the service was excellent as well. read more

Tasteless food and poor service. I can't figure out why their parking lot has cars other than employees'.

Very good food! Very friendly and knowledgeable wait staff went out of their way to help us with a request that used to be on the menu..made it for us anyway! It is also very clean!! They have military discount if that applies to you! I will add this to my restaurant rotation! I will come back again!! read more

Love the place! The food is not consistent. Came in for the fabulous cheese grits, they tasted like someone dropped a pepper shaker in them! Last week came for a burger. Ordered it with caramelized onions. Tasted sickening sweet. I take two bite of the food now and it literally makes me sick to my stomach. read more

We came here for a lunchtime meal on a Saturday a few weeks ago. They had a special lunch/brunch menu that was cool. I got a delicious burger with pimento cheese and bacon and bacon jam. I loved every bite!! I also got a side of fries. They were seasoned perfectly! I couldn't stop eating them. This would be a great place to watch a game or meet some friends for a meal. Pretty laid back vibe. Booths and tables available! read more

Kelley's us a great place which nicely decorated and has a menu of food we loved.Especially the Ruben sandwich and chili. Also have a good selection of beers. Their staff is always friendly and their prices are fair. It is one of our go to spits when we eat out. Ironically we were talking about going there this week UT my wife noticed they have made drastic changes to their menu which we don't like, eliminating some of our favorite dishes. They have also reduced their hours.We will definitely go again soon to see if we still like it as much. We hope we do. read more

Loved that the restaurant wasn't noisy. Burgers were delicious! Service was great! Would definitely recommend!

Definitely get the Korean wings. Phenomenal! The French dip was delicious as well. I will definitely be back.

No way will I ever go there again.! Wings were dry and tasteless. Went to see a NFL game on a Saturday and they have Pee-Wee Herman on tv's, No audio for games, Place is dead and they acted like it was a full house. I felt bad for the waitress bcuz it was out of her control. Go to Buffalo Wild Wings which is 10 minutes away from this sad place. Do not go there unless you into Pee-Wee Herman.! True story.! 1/2 a star but they don't have that option. read more

Been here a couple times now and 5 stars each time, but especially this last time with Tyler as our waiter. He had so patience for our party of 9 and joked around with my uncle, which I appreciated. We had great service. The food is excellent. The corn muffins and fried cheese bites are my favorite appetizers. We ordered the steak flatbread, wings, burgers, salads, prime rib dip sandwich etc - everything was great. My parents had old fashions which they enjoyed and my uncle and I shared the giant beer tower, which was fantastic lol even though the elderly around us kept starring Highly recommend this spot if you are in the area. It's new, very clean & all the staff was very kind. read more

We have been here multiple times and have thoroughly enjoyed each visit. Most recently I took my Mom on Sunday for Brunch and it was delicious. She especially enjoyed the Sweet Potato Fries. They were short staffed and busy, but everyone had a great attitude. Our server, Madison, was working tables in addition to the bar and she was excellent. Give this local place a try and you will not be disappointed. read more

Great place. Group lunch outing and the food and service was excellent. Party of six and no complaints in the group.

We tried this place for dinner last night. Big mistake. Our experience was somewhere between bad and awful. The bad: wife and I ordered the $13 burgers, very well done for her, medium for me. Something was "off" with the taste of the meat (the menu described it as local grass fed "Talmo Beef") We both noticed it and it wasn't a good thing. My side salad was wilted and soggy, and served 5 minutes after the burger. Her side, mac and cheese with white Cheddar and spiral noodles, was OK - just not what she expected. Overall, the service was average, as long as you don't mind making multiple requests for napkins, water refills, or the side you ordered. Now the awful: I was sick all night - stomach cramps and diarrhea. I don't have a weak stomach and eat red meat cooked medium to medium rare on a regular basis without any issues. Just saying. I'm not buying all the 5 Star reviews here and neither should you. There's better food, service, and ambiance at more reasonable prices around the corner at Wild Wing Cafe. If you're thinking about having a night out at Kelley's, JUST DON'T. read more

Big menu variety and you can order things any way you like too Y'all gotta try this place Please put closed captioning though on a couple of the TV's / so u can know what's going on without sound (plus I'm hearing impaired so CC is handy for me) We shall return ! read more

The vibe for this place is chill and calm. The bartender was a gem herself and entertaining definitely a plus. The drink was strong and not watered down at all. I did like that and the fact the wings were on the money. The prices tho are high so come prepared. read more

Tanisha was awesome!! Food was excellent!! First time here and used Yelp to discover. You need to visit this place.

1st time visiting this establishment. Service was extremely slow at lunch time. 10 min just to get a server to take our order. The salad was soggy! By the time 2 salads came out we were there 45+ minutes. Had to ask for a refill of a Diet Coke several times to different folks. I think these folks are clueless of how bad their service is. Unfortunate but True. read more

Wanted to love this based off the reviews. It was just fine, but definitely nothing special. It was good, but not great, and a bit expensive for what it was. The burger did not come close to filling the bun (see pic). The fries have some sort of coating to make them crispy, gave them a bit of an off taste. Lots of better options around. read more

The service could be much better. Today the server dumped French fries in my husband's lap saying "Oh, sorry", then walked away. When we compl our meal, our waitress was at a table with another waitress talking. We waited over 10 minutes for her to complete her conversation. I gave up and walked up to the register to pay our check. She walked by me and said "I guess some people are in a hurry". She then said "I hope you have a better day". My h stated that we had been waiting over 10 minutes for her to come to our table. She replied "well I just like to talk to people. We are very disappointed in her rude attitude. read more
