The tater tots looked delicious, but they were probably some of the worst I've ever had. They had a really unpleasant aftertaste and seemed to have no seasoning or salt whatsoever. We asked our waitress if they had Cajun seasoning or something similar, but she said they didn't. She did bring us some salt, but even that couldn't fix the strange aftertaste. We ended up not eating them. The prime rib dip was just okay. We were told we could get mushrooms, but apparently it was a no, and it was also supposed to have horseradish, which ours didn't have. Karaoke started while we were there, which isn't really our scene, so we finished up and left. The disappointing part is that the restaurant itself looked clean and nice, and I really wanted to like it. Unfortunately, the food just wasn't good enough for us to come back.

Upon walking inside, we felt like we were at home. Though we love going to a high-end restaurant, we come from a small down and really enjoy the dive bars, especially when you get a friendly bartender, good drinks, and some good food. Kelley's had all of that. I went with the Cod Fish and Chips, which was breaded in Panko and fried perfectly. My wife had the Fish Sandwich, which tasted great as well. We also had the Coconut Prawns, which I'm sure were house made. These were amazing! If you're looking for a great dive bar that's not right on path, that has a friendly service, good drinks, and good food, stop by Kelley's.

We also tried the fried chicken gizzards which were surprisingly really good - solid 8/10. Also worth mentioning they come in a FULL basket, so definitely great portion size. The cup of chili was just okay for me, probably around a 6/10, but not bad by any means. The highlight honestly was our bartender 10/10.

TOURIST, STAY AWAY from this joint! The owner Rick is an unprofessional bully. I witness him yell at a women for hooting in excitement over a song she liked. I told my story to another business nearby and they said they get complaints from Rick all the time. They even told me if Rick sees an unattractive woman on the mic during karaoke he'll take the mic from her and he'll start singing. If the woman is hot he'll give her the mic, Really?! . (Rick, you need to stay out of the public eye and take anger management classes. You are a disrespectful person who shows no respect for women. Learn to manage your temper and be more respectful in the future) I take it personal when a man bully's and berates a woman even after she apologized. Go next door and save yourself the embarrassment. I can't believe guys like Rick this still get away with that chauvinistic behavior. He is the owner so I guess it's ok? SHAME ON YOU RICK! Your persona reeks hate and anger. Clean it up! read more

Transphobic hateful speech If you are a straight white ignorant Trump supporter then this is the place for you. Older white man behind the bar wearing a "The best part of waking up is Trump is president", shouted to the entire bar that if someone is trans and thinks they can come in and use their restroom they'll have another thing coming. He was obnoxious and a bully. He made challenging eye contact with everyone sitting at the bar throughout his bigoted speech. The older white woman behind the bar then chimed in about how she has granddaughters and "trans perverts" that use their bathroom would really wish they hadn't. It was not lost on anyone in the bar that if someone identifies as trans and uses their bathroom, they would be met with violence. This place is awful, ignorant, and hateful. There are so many other wonderful establishments in and near Rockaway. Don't waste your time at this hate-hole. Also, read other reviews, this is NOT an isolated incident. read more

This is the worst bar that I've ever been in. The waitress was nice but the owner is a jerk and thinks that he can treat the customers however he wants. He sits around and sings karaoke all night and badly at that. I saw people that were asked to leave there one time because he didn't like them and wouldn't even let them cash their poker receipts. Been to many bars and this one is by far the worst. If you value your time then stay out of it!!!!! read more
