We were weekly patrons of this establishment for several years but after a number of nights with cold food, very greasy chips and wings, and bouts of gastric distress by the time we got home, we stopped eating here. While the wings ere tasty the aftermath was not worth it. Tonight we were asked to come out and try it again by some family members so we did. I made the mistake of ordering the Grey Wolf fish, which had been huge but a bit disappointing in the past, but hey… maybe it was better after all this time! Right? Not right. For $ 11.99(more expensive than the all you can eat fish dinner) I got one perfectly formed plank of fish that was of mediumish size, breaded and had all the earmarks of a frozen plank of fish. This was laying on a HUGE bed of fries with about a ¼ cup of cole slaw. For $ 11.99??? Everyone at the table was appalled. To hercredit, the manager replaced my dinner with the all you can eat fish. One serving at $ 9.99 was twice as much as the Grey Wolf fish! I didn’t order seconds as it was very filling and I will say it was very good. Sadly, my return home was accompanied by gastric distress once again. I think the problem is the fried food, as my husband’s chicken paprikash left him feeling fine, as did our relatives nachos. I doubt we will be back anytime soon, but when we do return you can bet I won’t be getting anything fried!

Very inconsistent. Not what is used to be… Look elswhere We came here regularly for years. Then a couple years ago we had some a few bad experiences(cold fish, tough burgers, etc.) and stopped coming. Finally we gave it another try and it was pretty good… until tonight. We decided to pop out on a rainy Thursday to have some bar food. Cleats was our choice. The place wasn’t busy and we had our choice of seats. That was a good start. Our Christmas Ale’s came right away(the first of the season) so we were off to a good start. I ordered the beer cheese sliders and my wife got the buffalo chicken sandwich. Now comes the disappointment. My food came pretty quickly, but it kind of warm, not hot. I wanted mustard and when the server didn’t come back soon with my wife’s food so I had to go to the bar to get it… that happens. I wanted to be polite and wait for my wife to get her food. Ten minutes later, still not meal for her. She told me not to wait and start without her. After all it should come any minutes. But by the time I started, my food was cold. Cold burger, coagulated cheese, you get the picture. But I think they would have been good if they were hot. I ate slowly hoping my wife’s food would come, but after nearly 30 minutes I finished my meal and still not buffalo chicken. Finally it arrived. Our beers($ 7.00 for a tall and $ 6.00 pint were empty). It’s really no fun eating by yourself then watching someone else eat. BTW, It wasn’t just us. Most of the people around us were having the same experience(except for the couple who arrived 20 minutes after us… they were served pretty quickly). To their credit, they offer us(and the others) a free desert. Everyone has an off night. But we’re not find out.

It has been a great place but the problem is if your order a draft beer they are instructed to leave 2 fingers of head. They charge a premium for beer and it disappoints that they don’t give you a good pour. They started this a few year ago. It’s a shame the dont pour a full beer.

A good chain restaurant that makes you feel like it’s more of a neighborhood bar. There are regulars here and many of the waitstaff and bartenders have worked here forever, so they make everyone feel very welcome and like they know you. Cleats has been remodeled in the past few years, boating nicer interior décor and a brand new patio which is nice for the warmer months. As far as good goes, I always really enjoy whatever I order! Their wings are tasty as are their burgers, sandwiches(the buffalo chicken mac and cheese melt is just as amazing as it sounds!), and chicken. The plates are always heaped with fries or, my side of choice, homemade kettle chips with bacon ranch dipping sauce. The drinks are generous pours and decent prices. They always have seasonal beers as well as old favorites on tap, and the selection is good. Overall, a comfortable, casual place to get some good food and a cold drink at the end of the day!

We have been coming here for years. Food is always excellent. Service not so much. It seems lately they are staffing with people who do not know how to do the job, or just don’t care. Tonight we did not even get what we ordered. Sorta like pot luck — but it was still high quality. As one previous post wrote, doesn’t really cut it with so many other great options in the area.

Fun little dive bar. Cheap drinks and food. I came here with my dad for a drink around Christmas time and they were coming around with free shots and free sandwiches. I’ve never seen that at a bar before and I like it!

Went there last night, have been there before. Great menu! Good service. Can’t believe I had to post this location as a new listing? Shows other locations here? Great burgers, wraps. The fries are phenomenal! With vinegar or ketchup. I could not decide between a Reuben and a burger, guess what? They have a Reuben burger! A ½ lb. burger with the Reuben on top! My wife had a chicken wrap with a spinach type doe. Loved it! My only gripe? They only have Bud light lime in the summer, do I/others enjoy Bud light lime in the winter? YES, my second request. Miller high life.Nope.don’t have it, 3rd request Coors lite. yes they have that, why can I get a good burger and a Bud lite lime at BW3 in the winter and not here? They do have a large beer selection though, probably catering to the 21 – 40 group, do people over 40 like beer and a good burger… YES! It’s a little more personable that applebees here, a little easier to talk, hear. My wife said she felt comfortable there, It’s a little less«corporate» a little more neighborhood atmosphere. We will go there again soon.

Great Cleveland bar. I only get the Texas hold em burger with a basket of hand cut chips which are to die for if you dip them in the bacon ranch dipping sauce. Downside is they charge extra for the dipping sauce which I could eat about 5 of. The burgers are top notch bar burgers.

I was suprised at how nice this location was! Cleats always has pretty decent food. We split some garlic parm wings on our visit here and also ordered a couple of sandwiches. Yum!

I love this location. It is always clean and nice. the bathrooms are well attended to and the service is very good. I still haven’t figured out the Keno thing yet, but usually i start trying to after a couple beers and then give up. The wings are really good but the sauces for them are spectacular. My favorite is the Hot Garlic. I have tried the house favorite which is the Hot Garlic Parmesan and i didn’t see the benefit of the cheese, but they are really good also. Also incredible are the Zucchini Planks. They have a happy hour from 3 – 7 and they have wing night which i believe is Tues and Wed and the wings are only 39 cents each. Thats higher than most wing joints, but well worth it. Last time i was there i tried the loaded fries and they were very good. TONS of bacon, which i loved. Just writing this review makes me want to go there. Maybe next Tuesday!

Went to Cleat’s with some friends last night and it was a good time. They keep Dortmunder on tap, which is a delicious beer, so we drank and were happy. I tried some Water Wings, which is fried shrimp and it was crunch and delicious. The service was iffy, but we didn’t care because we were just sitting and drinking. I did make a couple trips to the bar for some additional drinks because our waitress didn’t stop by often enough. My cousin works at this location, so we got to hang out with her throughout the night, which was cool. The patio is really nice, especially in the summer. There are several big-screen TVs around, so you won’t miss your favorite sporting event. However, they didn’t have the UFC fight on, which we ended up going to another bar for. There wasn’t much of a crowd, which explains this. Overall, the food and beer is good.

Was here last Saturday night and got the 30 wing platter. This is the original location and they have some of the best wings in NEOH. Hand-cut fries are good as well as the beer battered onion rings. The best wings are the«sweet heat» «dry rubbed cajun» and the lemon pepper. I can drink the sauce from the sweet heat; a fucking great sauce that I wish they bottled. Come here for happy hour deals until 7pm if I remember correctly. They also have a wing night on Tuesdays I think. Solid wings and fries. They do insist of giving you a 3 finger wide head on every beer you order which is pretty shady.

They have a large menu with a bunch of great options. I’m a big fan of the wings. I don’t tolerate much heat, so Medium is perfect for heat, Kentucky Bourbon are an awesome ‘flavor’ wing, and Lime-Pepper are my favorites. Only reason i gave this a four is because the service can be a little slow at times, but do not let that deter you! Also usual Cleveland sports bar atmosphere, great to watch games.
