I came here while I was visiting mentor Ohio for the weekend. The atmosphere is great, plenty of televisions with sports on and an excellent selection of drinks. The staff was very attentive and kind to our table and was quick on refills and brought us anything we requested for our food our very quickly. The music selection they had playing was great as well a good mix of different music. I would highly recommend this place to anyone in the area or passing thru, thanks again to Hooley's and the staff!!! read more

My friends and family came for the trivia, and have been going for over a year now. We love the food and friendly service. The boneless wings (hooley hunks) will forever spoil all other boneless wings. Great burgers, salads, and sandwiches, and also surprisingly good veggie side dish if you're trying to keep it healthier. They also have macaroni and cheese bakes and melts but I can never get away from the french onion soup or hunks enough to try something new. Definitely recommeneded for a delicious and casual dining experience. read more

How can a "Pub" have stale and flat draft beer? The Blue Moon and Bumbleberry were - plus served in a chipped glass. Artichoke and spinach dip good, but peppery, with fresh tortilla chips. Boxty was blah, overcooked on the outside, undercooked on the inside. Their well known mac-n-cheese is basically velveeta and mozzarella. Why bother? The fish was well below par; small, questionably cod, overfried. Tater tots good. Why expect much from a sports bar? There are so many great independents out there don't bother with one like this - even if just to stop for a skunky, stale draft! read more

What a fun place!! They have a huge selection of food... Burgers, sandwiches, pizza, wings... and they had a BUNCH of mac & cheese options!! I ordered the Hooley special reuben with Guiness beer battered onion rings. It was AWESOME! I couldn't eat the whole sandwich. Of course, maybe that was because we ordered pretzel bites for an app :) Good beer selection. Friendly service! Great overall time!! We will be back! read more

Been coming here for years now, gotten to become friends with the staff. Friendly people working there as well as becoming friends with other patrons. Never had any bad experience. All the bartenders know which beer I want, and of course my favorite beer, LaBatt Blue, (best thing to come out of Canada). Now as far as the food goes, I usually get a cheeseburger with mac and cheese and coleslaw, very good! Also Ive had the ham and turkey wrap, which I like to, but nothing beats that cheeseburger! So its my go to spot, although not as much as my new 2nd shift job keeps me at work till midnight. But check it out, if you havent yet. Catch a Browns game or Cavs or Indians. They do have live bands quite a bit to. read more

Just tried this place tonight -- thoroughly enjoyed it! I got the Irish mac & cheese which was good, but it was honestly a bit bland for my liking. What blew me away was the buffalo chicken dip! Oh man, I could eat that stuff for the next week and not grow tired of it. Yummy! I was instantly taken back to numerous super bowl parties from my past. Happy times... Anyway, to get back to the review, I really liked the people there and the general feel of the place. It is an ADHD person's dream -- tons of TV's everywhere! I really enjoyed the food; especially for a bar, the food was really good. The service was great -- at the end when we were yapping away the waitress came and filled our water glasses multiple times. There was an open mic, and everybody who sang was impressively good. It did get a bit loud, but I didn't mind. I would definitely come back. Get the buffalo chicken dip! After reading other's reviews I will have to try the hooley hunks next time. read more

Pretty sure my wife got food poisoning from here, though it's hard to say. Take this warning with a grain of salt, but understand that you've been warned! In my opinion, you should take your business elsewhere. Let me start off with a disclaimer: It seems like most of the wait/bar staff is decent and is really trying. I can't say the same for the cooks or for management as the food here is pretty terrible and the manager seemed very uninterested that we had a bad experience. I'm not the type of person who usually asks for a manager (you'll just have to take my word for it, I guess) but in this case, I was so disappointed in everything that I asked to speak with one, but I'll get to that in a minute. We ordered some "Hooley Hunks," which I guess are like their version of chicken bites or chicken nuggets, and they were totally dry and chewy; obviously overcooked. The chicken tenders for my wife's salad seemed undercook, at which point we asked that they were replaced. The cooks must not have properly cooked the second batch because I'm pretty sure that's how my wife got sick the next day. Once again, it's hard to be sure with food poisoning, the Hooley House is the only place my wife ate outside of our own home and had to call off work the next day because she was so sick. I will say that the Irish Egg Rolls were pretty good and we actually enjoyed those. Pretty much everything else was improperly cooked or just tasted terrible. The sauces there seemed cheap and are definitely not made in-house, or at least, they taste like something that comes out of a bottle, which would be fine if they were actually good. Pretty much, the pop and the Irish Egg Rolls were good and everything else was nasty. I was at the point where I didn't even want to pay for anything besides drinks and appetizers because the food was so disappointing. That being said, I asked for the manager. It was a guy in his 40s, maybe late 40s, named Mike or Matt, I think? Sort of a taller guy with blonde hair and a beard. He was totally dismissive toward us and acted like he was too busy and that we were keeping him from something more important. I was going to refuse to pay for the meal but he seemed like the type of guy who would've called the police instead of understanding that we had a bad experience, so I just paid for the meal, made sure to tip the waitress who was very polite and was apologizing profusely (I think her name was Kelsey), and we left and have never returned to Hooley House. Take my review with a grain of salt, but I'm telling you this is not the place you want to spend your money in. If you look at my profile I give plenty of places good reviews because they actually have good food and good service! This place is not one of them and my wife and I will never return to Hooley House. The waitresses and bar staff seem like they're trying and I give them credit, but they are trying to save a sinking ship from the looks of it. Other people seem to have had good experiences here, but after they made my wife sick I can never forgive them and will never give them my money again. Good riddance. read more

It was 10:30 in Aug on a Friday night and our party of 4 needed some food and to relax. We are not familiar with the area and stopped in. For a late night our waitress Jess was all smiles. Although she had tables outside she was very attentive. So attentive that she noticed there was a new bartender and wanted to make sure we were happy with the drink re-orders. Nice. Thanks for paying attention Jess. We were happy By the way. They Serve a FULL MENU until midnight, I was told, and they have a limited menu until 2:00am. (That's the way it should be done, good job!) The food was very good, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was great. (I was amazed that the crowd was a mix of young and old. ) Many TV's displayed sports channels and appropriate music was playing. imho. If I have one thing to say that needs improved upon.... The parking lot needs lighting at night. There is a large parking lot but I remember it being very dark. Other than that it deserved 5 stars for our visit. Thanks Jess! read more

See all

If you like waiting 15 minutes everytime you want a drink, then this is the place for you! I'm not saying it's a bad place, but everytime I've been there it's been PACKED, and it just seems like there's never enough bartenders. They do however have a nice patio... read more

Stuffed Irish boxty was real good. It had corned beef and cheese in it. I recommend it to-go cause the service isn't that great. When we came in the hostess was sitting down eating and looked confused that we wanted a table.. Nobody really seemed happy to be there. The server forgot about a quesadilla for 40 mins but took it off the bill. You could tell it was sitting for a while then maybe got heated up b4 serving. I also ordered cheese sticks but they were under cooked and soggy. I didn't even eat them. Prolly could of used 2 or 3 minutes longer in the fryer. Those were not taken off the bill. All in all the Boxty was awesome and if you want to eat from here maybe get carryout. read more

All the years coming I don't recall an issue! Tina and Mike are great bartenders. Some other girl, (bro maybe?) is average at best. The waitresses have always been pretty good. Food is awesome.they don't have 4 1/2 stars, so today is a 5 star day!!! read more

I give it four stars, but really this place can be so hit or miss. The lunch special for $5 is a great value. A side of fries and a good portion of Hooley Hunks in your preferred sauce. I mean, for five dollars, I'm never going to be overly picky about what I am eating giving the price I paid for it to go. However, some days the food (like today) was just decent at 3 stars, some days they nail everything and give you a little extra then you paid for and it is 5 stars. Really is so hit or miss. Overall though, if you haven't tried their very small boneless wings (Hooley Hunks) I recommend you give it a try during the lunch time special. During the rest of the time most of the other food is overpriced given the quality and taste of it. read more

Chicken wings were good, but I took them out as it was way too loud to even Carry on a conversation with someone. Lots of TVs but way too loud for this character read more

Service was horrible! Taylor, our server, made the meal worthwhile. She was awesome! Ask for her if you want good service, otherwise, you'll be ignored. read more

This review is based on just one quick visit so keep that in mind. We met some friends at the bar before a local, high school playoff football game. The crowd was boisterous and fun and the menus looked good! We will definitely be back soon! read more

As I sit here with the Ohio State game on all around us, its hard to believe that there is not a server in sight. It's even harder to believe that people patronize this place. It's over priced, the service is TERRIBLE, and the food is just ok. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is cause the food was edible but not great. read more

Food was ok, service and management was a disaster. The POS went down and we couldn't cash out. They were still allowing people to order and not telling anyone that there was a problem with their POS. 45 minutes later and we're still waiting to talk to a manger... read more

I love this place!!! Great food great service!! Been going there for 5 years. The best time is Friday/weekends late. The only downside for this great pub are the jerks who bring their kids to the pub turning into Chuck e Cheese. read more

If you go during lunch definitely check out the lunch specials. I got a Cajun Chicken Melt, with fries only $6.99. Overall the sandwich was very tasty. The bottom slice of bread was slightly soggy, no big deal. The fries were cooked perfectly. The only issue is the service is a little slow, but if you are there with a group of friends and having a good time you won't notice. The restaurant was clean and the staff was polite. The restaurant was very quite tho. read more

Not a bad place to go out on a Tuesday night. Open mike night is fun. I would definitely go again.

Great food always has fun live bands you can tell staff likes their job and are very attentive

So i started my journey to the hooley house, i believe it was a thursday, maybe a friday. I went into the restaurant, not thinking much. But was delightfully greeted as i walked through the door. I was seated with glee and they asked me what i want to partake in. I, in a delighted voice, asked for the hooley hunks, the waiter went back in the kitchen and came back with my hooley hunks in honey barbecue sauce. I took my first bite, and was delighted at the juicy flavor of the chicken and the very flavorful exterior breading on the chicken. It was not greasy by any means. read more

The beer was way overpriced. I was shocked to get my check and see my beer cost $9. I get cheaper beer in New York City.

The menu was a little different but included some typical pub fare. My burger and fries were decent. My wife had the Mac & Cheese. She said the flavor was great but there was way to much cheese. My waitress was very good and we even had a second (superviser?) check in with us at the end. The place is extremely loud. If your looking for a quiet dinner, it's not for you. The bars were packed. The tv's are everywhere so you can see your game from anywhere. read more

I have been going here ever since it opened and that have improved since then. The owner is really the nicest owner around all the food is great the service is better then anywhere else. They treat me as if I am family to them. So come in you will enjoy yourself and enjoy the food read more

STAY HOME AND SAVE YOUR MONEY! or go elsewhere if you want good food. Ordered a corned beef sandwich a Reuben 2 onion soup and mozzarella sticks for take out was $43.00 asked for xtra pickles on side DIDNT get any asked for mustard on side DIDNT GET ANY asked for xtra 1000 island dressing DIDNT GET IT. Corned beef was dry and bland bread was stale sour kraut was like eating dental floss! Thankfully they put very very little on it. And cheese was non existent. As far as I could tell neither of us wanted to finish or save what was left of our very small sandwiches. The only good thing about them was that they were small. Cuz if they were really big and had to throw away more than half the sandwich I would be pretty peeved Mozzarella sticks were ok but hardly worth the $$ they charged and somewhat undercooked soup was only good thing we got. Webb sight says to inform hostess you are there to pick up an on line order I did so and was rudely told take out orders were to be picked up at the bar. Bar maid was very nice. Food was ready and that was the only nice thing about my visit here. read more

my fiancé planned a surprise 50th birthday party for me for them to call her days before the event and not cancel her but to let her know they overbooked a browns backer party... what a joke this is we love this place but rest assure i will never spend a penny here again .... and i know allot of people too i am a vivid biker well know and famous in some parts of the country and they handled it very unprofessional apparently the browns backers asked to have their fundraiser 1 week before my party and they called my fiancé and asked if she could rebook for the following week because of this fundraiser... so i am guessing they wanted us to cancel because of money????? ... very unprofessional !!!!! and thanks for the wonderful birthday surprise!! read more

I always feel like I'm entering a cave. Very dark interior, black ceiling and few windows. Service is sporadic with high turnover. New menu that eliminated soup by the cup. The regular pub food is good and the portions on the large side. Full service bar. Looking forward to being able to eat outside on the patio. read more

Hooley House is GREAT if you have a larger party. They have lots of table and you can string them together if you'd like. Hi and lo-tops! Enough TV's that there's bound to be something you're interested in. Dart boards make for some good times, too. Food is great - their $5.99 burger is worth every penny and is the special on Thursdays!! Haven't had their wings yet but will soon!! Recommend!! 4 stars b/c service or product must be above and beyond to get 5 from me!! read more

Let me start off by saying how much I love the idea and the food and drinks at this place. I enjoy the irish fare on the menu as well as all of the other options. My favorite is the chipotle chicken wrap, ordered with sauce on the side because it is too messy other wise. He usually gets a burger and suggests the steak fries as a side. The beer selection is impressive as well, loove all of the Black mixes. With all this good being said, I HATE the atmosphere, it never fails when we go they have something going on on the stage and super loud in the microphone. Whether its people talking about high school sports for hours on a Monday or trivia on Wednesdays, which basically means you can't find a seat in the House because they are all reserved. I dont hate them for wanting to be interactive but I wish they had a separate room for doing so because if you aren't partaking in the event, it makes you want to walk out. read more

went tue 8-9-17 approx. 2pm. great service by Lana. Lana never stopped working & was sociable at the same time. I also noticed Tiffany also never stop working. Tiff u were the highlight of my afternoon. read the $5 read more

Very disappointing...I booked a private party a month in advance and 3 days before event they call and said they over booked and a fundraiser also planned the same day and that it would be crammed in but Bizzy made sure she didn't use the word cancel she just made it sound like I should cancel and she overlooked our reservation probably got a last minute fundraiser and wanted us to cancel .....this was a surprise party for my fiance that I had planned since I made the reservation over a month ago... my fiance loves this place but once I let the cat out of the bag about the party he said we will not go there anymore pray Holley house , the general manager called me and basically told me to cancel even tho she didn't say it openly... me they screwed me big time I had over 35 invitees that were coming and all planned out for them to call me just days before the event and expect us to cater to what they wanted ...we are very disappointed and this place is showed us their unprofessional service we will never go there again my fiance said because it was stressful for me to plan his surprise 50th birthday let alone her calling me to get me to cancel they bumped me and my fiance for a fundraiser . She was cold and didn't care that she was able to get us to cancel to accommodate what ever fundraiser they had going on ... me and my fiance are bikers we know allot of people and will make sure everyone knows how I got screwed ... sad part is she never even apologized bre originally called and was nicer but the manager screwed me how do you replan a surprise 50th birthday party ????? read more

Hooley House is a little bit overrated. It's very noisy and it has your typical bar food. The waitresses are good and they usually have decent drink specials. It's pretty much your average sports bar. There are definitely better places to go to watch the game. This place is good, just not great read more

Service is good, food is good, good drink selection. It's a place I trust to be a pleasant experience, and would suggest over some of the similar dining options in the area (Lookin at you, Quaker Steak). Firecracker Ranch Hooley hunks and a Guinness or two are my go to here, but I've yet to taste anything here that wasn't delicious. Corned beef is a must try. Knock a buck or two off the regular priced drinks and I'd give it 5 stars. read more

Decent beer selection and a fun atmosphere. The patio is nice as well. Don't order the Shepherds Pie! Looks like a bowl of slop and the taste isn't far from it either. read more

I do love this place. I ordered the Fish and Mac n' Cheese and it was FABULOUS!!!!! I couldn't stop thinking about the food. I do believe the alcohol was a bit overprice, however, it was great beer. Would recommend to anyone. Great place to watch a game and get great food and beer. read more

The food was ok. Typical bar menu mixed with some unique items. We did have a good server.
