This is my choice of bar in my area, as it's within walking distance form my house. They always have live music here. I am not a fan of paying cover charges to get into bars, so I tend not to go check out the music. I will say, that they have amazing cheese fries and potato soup. I feel like I'm a cheese fry connoisseur, and they certainly have great ones. I will be back. read more

Started with an order of wings in the danger sauce; they were not only not spicy, they were actually bland. Not to mention soggy. Thankfully, our burgers were awesome. Just regular for me, All In for my husband. They were fresh and flavorful. Our waiter was also great. Definitely planning to come back. read more

This place is loved let me just tell you if your reading this you either already know that or have never been here the waitresses are wonderful the food is great the drinks look amazing Spankys will serve me my first drink the day I turn 21 lol key things to try the cheese fries the Buffalo chicken nachos and Mondays... where you will meet all the regulars at halfprice burger day the breakfast is great too know as the bar that is always open read more

This place fits the classic definition of a Dive Bar! Typically I will only go here in the summer when they have the back deck open and I can be outside. On those visits I enjoy the place. The inside is divided into two sections. One side is smoking, the other side is non-smoking. The inside is very dark and dingy between the paint and decor. It is kind of depressing. From time to time on weekends they will have a half decent band. It is good if you come with a group of friends who you know. If I were to rate the inside versus the outside separately, outside would get 4 stars and inside would get a 1 star. I decided to be kind and lean more towards three stars average. If you've ever come to this place in the winter and been inside and did not like it, come back in the summer when you can walk through the building, walk out the back door and enjoy a different experience read more

Spanky's is my new favorite for good wholesome food at affordable prices in Leesburg. Haven't been in years, but my wife and I decided to try it for dinner instead of delivery. Great service, tasty food, and friendly atmosphere. Loved having dinner with so many locals tonite at Spanky's ! read more

Don't know where to start, but I will go to the staff first...AWESOME...i don't think I have ever had to wait more than a minute for service. Everyone from Joni, Haylei,Shawnna, Erik, Bobby, Cathy, Anna, Shelby, Lori, hell even the barback Zack ROCK! Drinks are reasonably priced and their selection is growing, not much of a beer drinker but always have plenty of Miller Lite and its always cold!! I have been coming here for 10 years, love the place!! Hell ill go in there sometimes just to catch the regulars. I have networked in this place and met all walks of life here, you won't find a more open, diverse place to gather friends and let the good times roll!! Don't know the exact schedule but almost every night seems like there is live music, even though its not always Awesome, its still not bad enough to make you leave!! Yoko Says No, Wall and Fry, Cheap Date, Josh Burgess, Bryan Foxx, and even Fast Eddy's Wednesday night open Mic jam is guranteed a good time!! Food...this is always good! I love it cause its a variety and the kitchen is usually open til late, 1am i think. That beats any fast food joint in town. My favorite is Dagwood sandwich! Can't go wrong with the Grilled Shrimp either. And if you haven't had one try the Raider, unbelievable combination that makes your mouth water! And I keep hearing about all these other wing places and I haven't found one yet that can top theirs! Simply the size alone is enough to get my vote! Overall with their Non-Smoking side, Smoking side, Patio bar w/cornhole and other entertainment (Yappy Hour, Miguel and other events). Some call it a hole, but with all the TV's, NFL Ticket, great service, good food, live music...id rather be in that hole than anyother place in Leesburg! Keep up the good work guys! Your still killing the competition! read more

Spankys is the best place in town for great food and service! Lots of TVs, lots of music, great patio, great staff.

Favorite pub in this area. Drinks good, food good, smoking section. What more can you ask from a pub? Well, they're not Irish as advertised, and I don't usually like the Saturday night live music, but that's a personal thing. I'd prefer Irish music - maybe the local band Craggy Island. Plus, the wait staff can be cranky at times. Overall, a solid three star place to get a drink and a quick burger or sandwich. read more

Spanky's is oddly located in a strip mall. We almost couldn't find the place because it was solely labeled "Shenanigans". After receiving a recommendation for an item not on their menu from two patrons, I decided to try their grilled shrimp. You can order it by the pound. I also got some fried pickles and the bf got the oversized rasta chicken sandwich and fries. The shrimp was awesome. A hint of heat and char add a ton of flavor. Admittedly, I rarely eat shrimp, but I would eat this shrimp again and again. Their fried pickles were salty and mushy - a disappointment compared to the shrimp. As for the chicken sandwich, it was delicious but was more "regular" than "over" in size. read more

Grew up in this town but have been gone many years. Can always count on Spankys for friendly great service and food!! Never disappointed!! Thanks for being here and always reliable!! read more

Love spankys yuppie hour the food is amazingggggf happy hour is amazinggggf everyone is so nice amazing breakfast as welll love the summer events read more

We had an after party here on a Sunday night. It actually took many thoughts to keep reminding ourselves that it was Sunday. Great place, open spaces, friendly and tolerating bar staff. Nice outdoor patio area. read more

Half smoking, half second-hand smoking bar and grill. They have a nice selection on craft and usual suspect beers as well as a really diverse menu with tons of food options. I had a very good pastrami and fries meal while visiting. Didn't blow me away but better than your standard bar food offerings. The wait staff is awesome and that helps make this spot bearable for a reformed smoker. I would definitely stop in for a beer and bite the next time I am in the area. Good spot for anyone who enjoys a good, competitive game of Golden Tee golf as well. read more

So this is a locals bar with good service and consistantly tasty bar food. I would recommend the sandwiches. I always have hard time deciding between the Wexford, the Danny Boy, the Mulligan and the chicken wrap. Their cheese fries are seriously the best around. If you are looking for a place to go for a few drinks and a lunch or dinner this is your best bet in da Burg. They have 3 sections- smoking (which can get really smokey as the night goes on), non-smoking (where the band usually is) and the back deck (which has a bar, tables and an area to play bags). I can't say I've been crazy about the bands I've heard there but it's always a pretty good time. There is usually an "older crowd" here, if you are looking for the college crowd and early 20's head to Bunkers or Finn's. read more

Food was good and the service was stellar. Good Breakfast place.

We love breakfast here! I know many don't like it but one of my favorite breakfast foods is cream chip beef....and Spanky's has some of the best around. When you come in the front door, you are a little overwhelmed by the cigarette smoke smell coming from "smoking side" but once you enter non-smoking side it is fine. Staff is always friendly and service is quick. read more

My wife and I hosted a "meet and greet" for our son's wedding last weekend. We expected 30-40 attendees but ended up with over 50. The staff at Spanky's couldn't have been nicer. They hustled to fill drink orders as fast as possible, brought out appetizers quickly, and bent over backwards to make the event a smashing success. Our thanks to Phil the manager and all his staff for a terrific time!! read more

This is a "dive" bar. It's one of the only bars that I know of that you can still smoke in. Actually I don't know any others.... i don't smoke but the bar seems like a place that existed 10-20 years ago which I'm pretty sure it has. So that's something. They have standard bar fare and their prices are fair. read more

I was a little nervous the first time I walked into Spanky's, but I have become a repeat customer. There is a smoking side (which I have never actually been in) and a non smoking side. Unfortunately, the non smoking part still smells of smoke, but as you sit in it, you don't smell it. The food is great, and we have always had friendly and fast service. I wish they would spruce things up a tad, but overlook the cosmetic aspect and you'll have a nice meal! read more

When I learned that this bar had a smoking section, I was hesitant to go.... I've found that smoke-friendly restaurants typically have smoke wafting through the non-smoking side. I was pleased to discover the non-smoking side was truly smoke-free. As far as pub food -- this place does a pretty good job. We had the fish taco -- which was excellent -- and the fish and chips. The fried fish is more batter than fish, so I wasn't a fan, but I will admit it was tasty. The prices are reasonable. And the servers all seemed pleasant, with the exception of ours, who was down-right ornery. She might have put a damper on our evening, but everyone is so friendly that we easily overlooked it. As others have noted, this is a strip-mall bar and for what it is, I was pleasantly surprised. An Irish bar, however, it is not. I like a brogue with my beer -- which you won't find here. If you do, too, you don't have to go far --O'Sullivans and Ned Devine's -- both in Herndon -- have Irish servers. We tested this place out on St. Paddy's day -- the true test of an Irish bar -- and it wasn't terribly busy. They still commanded a $10/per person cover for the band.... which didn't play anything remotely Irish. Boo! For a local, sports bar... this place is as good as any. For a wee-bit of the Irish, go elsewhere.... The Breakdown: Food: 3 Prices: 3 Cleanliness: 3 Service: 3 Ambiance: 3 read more

First let me say I don't take time out of my busy schedule to write reviews so the fact that I am writing this should say a lot. I was in Leesburg on business and had a lot to do so I ordered over the phone and had the food delivered to my room. It arrived in under 30 minutes and was still nice and hot. I had the Caesar Salad with the flank steak. The salad was a bit skimpy but the steak was excellent and for the extra 3 dollars it was quit a bit. So 5 stars I had the shrimp with pasta and both were excellent and a hearty portion with a very reasonable price. 5 stars again. I saw a couple and only a couple of bad reviews and owning a business myself where I pride myself as being the best, I still get a couple here and there that will never be happy. Spanky's was 5 Stars all the way read more

Came here on vacation and loved it. Katie H is an amazing bar tender and she made me feel so welcome. The music is on and it's separated by smoking and non smoking. I had an amazing time but if you want the full experience see Katie H in the non smoking section. She is incredible read more

Dropped in late to grab a sandwich,ordered a chicken with lettuce and tomato.chicken was moist and pretty good fries were great I ordered them with no seasoning.Ate at the bar place is a little run down but food made up for it ,Beer ice cold would recommend also half price Monday Night Burger night! read more

Phil the manager informed my group I was unwelcomed when I had not ordered any drinks. My dog was with me on the patio on a leash behaving herself and loved by other customers. However I was not personally spoken to by this "manager" personally but apparently refused because he was unsatisfied by our friendly atmosphere and generous tips. I had no tab however the police were called due to a "disturbance" that no one in my group had been aware of. I will always cherish the phenomenal bartenders and servers however if Phil is managing I advise do NOT go there if you would like to have a group. Or even if he's is on duty. read more

I love this bar. I visit regularly. Prices are fair and burgers are killer.

Spanky's is great! My wife and I had our wedding rehearsal dinner here, and it could not have gone better. Phil was extremely communicative and helpful throughout the booking process, from working within our budget to making sure everything was how we wanted. We wanted a laid-back environment where our guests could enjoy good food and drink. Shenanigans was definitely that place, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The food was great. Highly recommend the grilled shrimp appetizer! read more

Food wasn't bad, but it took way to long to be brought to the table. I ordered the Chicken kabobs, vegetables, and a Greek Salad (they didn't have Greek dressing, which was odd). Waitress apologized and said it was because someone "stole" my salad. Friends each had wings and said they weren't bad. Check was never brought to table so we went up to the bar to pay. When I showed the yelp coupon, I got a big eye roll and was told they needed a manager to take the amount off. This also seemed to take much longer than it needed to for a half empty place on a early Wednesday evening. read more

Service was awesome!! Thank you Azmi for the red carpet treatment. We couldn't find a table for our group so Azmi found us spot and set a table for us. He also rounded up our server G. Who was very attentive to our needs even though the place was hoppin. We had a great night, and our time at Spankys was icing on the cake. read more

A wonderful local favorite. Bartenders provide quick efficient and friendly service and the food is delicious

This establishment has brought me quite pleasure for some time now. Jonie feels like my long lost friend every time I am pleasantly greeted by her. Food and drinks are on point! Did I mention the service was excellent!? read more

been here a few times b4 including last nite, 5/10 with some good friends and I do have to say this is one of the top best bar and eaterys for SERVICE!!!!.........THE FOOD IS REAL GOOD to and i think reseanably priced.... they do have diff. specials every day....I turned 3 friends onto this place in which we have been here 3x's in 2wks.........I would describe this bar as upscale divey but that is good thing.....chk out yappy happy hours for dogs on wed. evenings....quit interesting......cheers !! read more

Waited over 15 min while the waitress paraded around my friends out of state ID to other bar patrons asking if they thought it was real... Where in the US are bar patrons certified at telling you if an ID is real? Service one star. Music four stars. read more

Nice pub style atmosphere w/ plenty of TV's for ur viewing pleasure! Friendly waitstaff & reasonable prices! Plus they offer free cab rides if ur too tipsy to drive which is such an awesome gesture! I enjoyed a chicken sandwich & fries & it was delicious! Overall great place to chill, drink, eat, & hangout while enjoying a good game! read more

Saw the menu in my hotel and needed something close as I had a ton of work to do yet. No time to explore the area. They have specials every night so I tried the prime rib. Was pretty decent, cooked properly (medium). Came with mashed potato and steamed broccoli. Mashed were very good and the horse radish was extremely fresh. So good solid place to go. read more

Best chicken salad sandwich around.... a must have. Go hungry and leave happy.............................................................................................. read more

Dive bar? Maybe. I only use it for breakfast, and for that it's perfect. Staff is impeccably trained and long standing waiters/waitresses such as Shelby remember your name every time if not your preferred order. Food is reliably good and the chipped beef and country fried steak items are out of this world. Owner/manager (?) is a good guy and works hard to keep his guests happy. It is what it is, and I like it! read more

Spanky's was the only bar we spotted within a reasonable walking distance from the Best Western. 7 of us walked from the hotel to grab a few drinks. The place is pretty spacious and has a entire half of the bar that is glassed in for all the cigarette smokers. It was a Thursday night so the place wasnt too crowded, the lone bartender on the non smoking side did a swell job of checking in on us and taking our drink orders. Didn't see the menu, maybe next time. read more

Nothing fancy but overall the experience was good. Went on a Saturday night and they had a live band called 'Mandatory Recess'. Wasn't too crowded and the servers kept the beers coming rather quickly. Didn't have anything to eat as we had just left a restaurant so I can't comment on the food. There was almost a fight between 2 gladiators but the situation was handled quickly by the bouncer. The live band played a pretty mean Hungry Like The Wolf. Our party had a good time. read more

First time here and it did not disappoint! The blackened shrimp is an ABSOLUTE MUST!!! Our bartender had amazing recommendations and service! We also had the Dagwood and the raider, oh man can't wait to come back. Homemade hot sauce awesome place for sports, they had every game on! read more

Very good happy hour prices for beer. Decent lunch place. Great service. We used our Yelp app discount without having to display the actual coupon, as my phone was having trouble accessing the GPS coordinates necessary to check me in. Nice of the waitress to go ahead and trust us on that front. The veggie burger was good, though the patty was a bit dense. I'm curious if it contains any animal products. Fries and bun were just the right type of comfort food for a place that charges about $10 a plate. read more
