    The bar
    Laura F.

    THE best burgers in town, I'm not kidding. Great Guinness, burgers, fries. This is a great Irish bar/restaurant which leans heavily towards soccer, rugby or any Cleveland game. MATT IS THE BEST BARTENDER EVER!!

    Came here on a recent weeknight during an outing in the Ohio City district. We were looking for some basic pub grub and a spot for grabbing a beer and this place checked those marks for us. We settled in to a low-top table and the bar server came over for both drink and food orders. Beers started flowing (Yay! They had Smithwicks on tap!) and grub orders headed to the kitchen. Two of us ordered their fish-n-chips...how could you not, in an Irish pub style bar...and the third a Reuben sandwich. My basket of fish-n-chips were plump, juicy and (beyond) piping hot but unfortunately the batter lacked flavor. I did like their tartar sauce because it included dill, even if it was on the thin side from a consistency perspective. The fresh cut fries were seasoned well and semi-crispy. Their cole slaw was rather tasteless and rough chop cut, so I did not care for it all that much. All in all, a very decent pub style meal with enough menu options to choose from and a reasonable offering of on-tap beers to choose from.

    Wings

    This place has the greatest wings I have ever had in my life. The service was fast despite a crowd , I love this place and everything it has to offer in this world

    Lamb stew

    We stopped in based on the recommendation of another local business. From the moment we walked in, the bar tender(also our waiter and possibly the owner) made us feel welcomed. While serving, we would get into little conversations with him and he took a group photo of us. The food portions were large and the meat was tender and delicious. With all of the restaurant options around this area, i will choose to re-visit The Old Angle soon

    Was looking for dinner on Saturday after work and before a CIM concert and downtown was crazy with the Guardians playoff game so I figured on grabbing something in Ohio City; of course the parking was crazy but I found street parking a couple of blocks off the main drag and walked to the Old Angle Tavern which I had been meaning to try. Walking in I was surprised since I was expecting an older bar, instead it was a clean modern space with a bar on the inside wall and some tables and booths. I was seated at the bar and ordered off the menu using the QR code. The menu is compact and focused, but there was fish and chips so I was happy. The food came up very quickly, hot and fresh. Two nice sized fillets of cod with a nice batter crust, a large portion of fries and a small cup of slaw. The fish was fresh and mild, well cooked, the fries and slaw were both good if nothing special. There were a couple of nice touches that helped to elevate the meal; the fish was topped with some coarse sea salt that gave a nice flavor pop and the ketchup was made in house with some little chunks of tomatoes. Overall a very nice fish and chips. I do have to shout out the staff that night; they were clearly short handed and business was picking up, yet they kept hustling to keep up and had a great attitude. Nice to see and much appreciated. The Old Angle Tavern is a great place to grab a drink and/or some good food. Great location in the middle of W.25th Street in Ohio City. Not as high profile as some of the nearby places, but nothing wrong with a well done classic.

    The long piece of metal that was in my food
    Shelle B.

    Tried this place on Monday which is wing night $1.25 each for wing dings , not a super good deal but I guess it's ok for a taste, my boyfriend placed an order of 6 and also got the roast beef sandwich, I ordered the house burger plus a beer , I had to take mine home became midway through my belly felt unreasonably swollen for just a few bites maybe it was the beer ,the bartender was attentive enough being that it was only him...nothing too fancy about the place typical Irish pub. I was thinking since we live around the corner they would be ok for a quick go to until I found a long piece of metal in my food!! Old Angle how dare you, I'm very disappointed. Never again Very very unacceptable, what if I didn't pay attention and swallowed it ?? Could of ruined my life

    Chicken sandwich
    Parker W.

    One of the only good bars on 25th. Good place to grab a proper pint of Guiness! The food is outstanding. Highly recommend the steak salad and the buffalo wings. I have not had a bad meal. You can order anything from the menu and not go wrong.

    Lamb Stew

    Went back like I said I would. Service was awesome. I cease there for lunch. This time I went for the Sheppard Pie. I now have a go to comfort food.

    Craig veggie grilled sandwich with Old Bay seasoned fries
    Anna H.

    Being a Monday, it was difficult to find an open bar in this area. We waited a few minutes for this place to open (I think it was 4:00). My boyfriend wanted Guiness on draft, and this Irish bar was just what we were looking for. The bartender (she has been there for 20 years) was personable and we enjoyed the 80s music with accompanying videos on one screen. I was hungry, and ordered the great Craig veggie grilled sandwich (I asked for added pesto) that came with fries that had a fantastic seasoning. Our bartender told us it was Old Bay. I would totally order this plate again.

    Pretzel Bites!

    Yummy pretzel bites! Great music and multiple TVs to watch a game. Super friendly people. Love this place for a drink, good food and hometown feel.

    A packed house for Manchester City vs. Liverpool

    Fantastic pub! If you are into Premier League football, this is where you need to be! The craft beer selections could be better, but they have a good IPA and some English beer on tap, so you won't go thirsty. The food options are fantastic as well. Try the pulled pork sandwich. It will leave you full and happy. Can't recommend this place enough

    Great old time bar in 25th street area that balances out all its trendy nearby restaurants/bars. Good Irish food and beer. Crowd is a bunch of fun loving people both young and old.

I want them to be crispy on the outside with a mouthful of chicken in each bite and they were just that. The lemon pepper sauce was very salty, but I love salt and vinegar chips so I was prepared. This is your typical Irish bar - long bar with 8-10 rectangle tables. We sat at the bar and our bartender/server was very friendly and helpful.

You won't even be able to stand. As for my other visit, it was on a Friday night. A nice sized crowd, full bar. Sports game on the television. A nice atmosphere for a neighborhood bar. A great touch is the 1 pinball machine in the corner. Older game but it does take up something to do with friends. As with service we were told that the bar is extremely behind by a rude bartender named Meg. You can tell she was overwhelmed and just seemed to be having a rough day. A few minutes later we were told by staff that the kitchen was now closed. Pretty strange as the menu is mainly all bar served fried food or burgers etc. The bartender also announced that they were out of fish as well. I continued to order drinks, they were cold and tasted as advertised. About an hour or so later , the kitchen was then re opened when the bar was less crowded. I order a dozen wings, garlic Parmesan with ranch. The wings were real solid. Nice and crispy and the garlic and parm combo was just enough. The basket of fries we got were average fries. Not crispy, nor salty but atleast they were hot. The prices were about average, no complaints about that. Overall, the bar does not seem to handle stress or large crowds very well. My wings were good, fries were average like I said. My friends attend this bar often and did tell me that this bar is not like this usually. May have been a rough day. I assume I will be back again, I wouldn't pick this place to go to but the location is close enough to the area we hang out. Not so much of any certain type of theme at the bar but I did notice the staff recognize many patrons by name so it will continue to be the neighborhood bar for many. Overall a 6.7 out of 10.

The Rowley Inn is located in a nice neighborhood (Tremont) across the street from the Christmas Story house. I had three meals there. The first, loaded pierogis, was the ultimate comfort dish. Pierogis with potato centers were covered in diced kielbasa, bacon (yes, bacon), and covered in cheddar cheese. Ahhhhh. The others at my table raved about the kielbasa and pierogi dish. They also liked the beer selection. How do you know you have a great find? You think about the meal long after it is consumed. Next meal- breakfast. I had the kielbasa and pierogi omelet. Need I say more? Finally, we came back a third time and I ordered the burger. No burger place (save Chuckbox in Tempe, AZ) can match the Rowley burger. The burger is actually seasoned and cooked to order. I had it medium rare. Sheer perfection. Typing this review makes me sad because I live far away from Cleveland. If you are in The Land, you must drop everything you are doing to get to the Rowley Inn. It is a 8 minute drive from downtown.

That crap came out with the damn skin moving. How gross is that! I reminded her I ordered garlic parmesan but where was it. Didn't even take a photo bc i didn't want to offend you folks who like food porn! The Loco Moski is about as disgusting as I never thought possible, seriously. The fried pickles were decent but nothing to order again... best part of my meal. . I sent the wings back and the exact nasty wings came out, just hot. Needless to say, i left them sitting there. Server never asked if they were better, even when she asked if i wanted a box and i said God no. No manager or Joe O came over to apologize so obviously people actually like them, I was odd person out. My drink was poorly made so I left that too. No one cared, so never again. Funny how the menu and signage states if it is made as said, no refunds or bill removal. They probably were losing money on bad sh!t. This place was on the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and DIVES bc of the massive bacon-wrapped tater tots. I didn't order them bc i value my heart and life but good luck to who tries them. BTW, there is zero ambiance... except look over your shoulder when walking to and from. NO WAY I will Ever return!!!!
