Don't let that discourage you, as they are well stocked with any beverage you could want and their food menu has several options to satisfy any lunch, dinner, or snack craving. There is plenty of seating, some outside and some under a covering. Under the covering there are picnic tables and TV's. There are fire pits for chilly summer nights and lots of plants and hanging baskets to set-off the esthetic on the patio. Parking is free and there are clean, park-style restrooms available. Please note that this is a sports complex so games takes place on the fields that surround the bar, I think it adds to the charm of the backdrop. I look forward to spending many more summer afternoons at Cleats!!

There is always a wait for tables and you'll see people waiting right by the front door. Lots of tvs to watch sports. There is a quieter back room and I think they might have some games back there Events: During summer evenings they have live music for free out back where there is cornhole, a second bar, and some seating. Ambiance: Families come here, people come here for first dates, groups of friends too. It's not upscale but there is something about the space that triggers my social anxiety. It kind of feels like a stage. Price: I guess they charge premium for the vibes because it is very overpriced. Service: Highly variable. sometimes you get someone nice, sometimes you get someone mean, sometimes you just get someone who is incompetent. mostly new faces every time i go in. Politics: I used to go here more often before I found out they're MAGA. and.. still MAGA in 2026. do with that information what you will. locally they are known for this. personally, there are many other options (right down the street) i can choose from where i feel good about spending money there. especially when their menu is overpriced.

The service is pretty quick and friendly and the food is absolutely amazing, along with the prices that you pay for said food.

That being said, the store is kept very clean and nice and you can tell the kitchen area is as well!

Possibly the nicest server of all time works here, named Elise if I can remember correctly. After hours, my car had a bad oil leak and so I pulled into this restaurant's parking lot. Elise came to wait with me and my friends and help us check my car for over 2 hours to help me feel safe, just out of kindness. This place deserves so much, she deserves so much.

Not much pico de gallo on it and not much brisket either. The majority of what it was chips and diced onions. I don't even like onions , which it doesn't say anywhere on the Nachos. Believe me I know the difference between chopped onions and good pico de gallo. Yes there happened to be a fly flying around us too. Yes I managed to eat around the onions and my friend ate most of it because actually we were starving. Not worth 20 bucks for the nachos!! I mostly worked on the pickles.

The staff was extremely kind and helped me with making suggestions. The duck ravioli was delicious (the sauce was like warm) I would have preferred it hotter but undeniably good.

The pork belly in the Brussel sprouts was so tender and flavorful. The restaurant is a little small so I recommend making reservations. My drink was okay (but I'm heavy handed) so alcohol might have been in it. Lol I will definitely be back.

We were pleasantly surprised all-around and I do recommend this place if this is what you're in the mood for! It's a little Irish pub in Grand Ledge, with the feeling of a log restaurant in northern Michigan, so that's a win! Parking is easy and the inside is warm and inviting. The menu is the perfect size with a good selection for everyone. We ordered the fish & chips on the server's recommendation and I'd say that was a solid recommendation. We also ordered a Greek salad and I was pleasantly surprised that it was great quality romaine versus cheap and old iceberg lettuce. I commend this place for their commitment to everything presenting and tasting fresh. The beer was good -- my husband and I both ordered the Amber on draft. Service was prompt and good.
