Cleats

This was our first time eating lunch here. The hostess was extremely friendly & I also found out while ordering our drinks she was the also the bartender. I loved the music selection that was being played throughout the dining area and the long island iced tea was perfectly made. I had a salad and my husband had the daily special of burger and fries. Our waitress was forgetful but she was still friendly and was able to meet our needs. (we thought maybe she was new at the position) we will definitely dine here again.

I went to cleats today for lunch to try their wings. After sitting at the bar for 15 minutes the bartender finally came for a drink order. There were only 5 other people there. She got my drink said she would be right back. After a 10 minute wait I got up and left.

As always. Great food. Loved the fish Tacos. Ribs, fajitas. Everything was excellent.

Not bad, Run of the mill sports bar and restaurant. We thought it was a bit pricey but it was to be expected

My husband and I couldn’t remember why we haven’t come to this Cleat’s in over a year — then we ordered our beers and remembered. Their «tall» 16 ounce beers are OUTRAGEOUSLY priced. Both our beers were warm and somewhat flat. My husbands food was OK at best, but I got the Beer Cheese Sliders — they didn’t come with fries or chips, and were absolutely flavorless. Not that I was expecting gourmet food, but I don’t want to have to slather Ketchup and Ranch on my burger just to get some flavor.
Then the bill came :(Would you believe the 16 oz «tall» beer I ordered was $ 7.00?! That is the most I have ever paid for a draft beer at a sports bar. I could have bought a 6 pack of the exact same beer for that price! I would be willing to overlook the food not being good, I would just get something else next time. But to charge that much for drinks should be illegal. Oh, and don’t order Ranch on the side because it costs $.75.
Needless to say we will NEVER be returning to Cleats when there are so many other places that have good food and drink at reasonable prices.

Ordered the chili, wife had the Sliders on pretzel bun, fries and french onion soup. The Chili tasted as if it was burnt. The chips that came with it were stale. Wife thought the sliders were OK once she added catchup and salt. I found the burger meat to be tasteless and very greasy. It’s been several years since we were there because the food was bad. Was looking to see if had gotten any better, it hasn’t. I would not recommend. Too many good restaurants to waste money here.

Just awful, when we first walked in (me and a few friends) the place smelled like old grease. I ordered the chicken fingers at the time with fries and the «Kentucky Bourbon» and It was bad. The «Kentucky Bourbon» sauce was watered down and generic, no real zing to it, the fries tasted gross like they were a few days old and the chicken fingers were below average at best; I went home with a twisted stomach that night. Even thou the food is abysmal the staff and people there were very friendly, so I suggest you fire that cook or make some changes because next time I go I’m just ordering a drink.

Good place to watch a football game. Bartenders are attentive and friendly. Boneless wings with hot sauce and Kentucky bourbon sauce are yummy (my occasional treat). WiFi does not work. Boo hiss.

One of the best restaurants and bars in town. Great staff, nice atmosphere, and fun events. A staple here in Chardon.

So we were looking for somewhere to go in a small town that closes after 9. It was close to 10:30pm and we found this place in a small plaza just down the road from our inn.
They had «best wings in the world» listed on the entry way but they were by far the worst I’ve ever had. We ordered some wings which they sell by the pound at market price so it was 5 wings for about $ 5. Not bad price wise. A list of about 13 sauce and we chose sweet heat which I thought was a spicy and sweet combo and bourbon BBQ. Both sauces were disappointing and the wings were not crispy but just almost tasted baked with no seasoning, completely bland!!! The sauce gave it some life but it just tasted like sugar with a hint of bourbon. The sweet heat was awful! It was literally blazing hot, no flavor just complete burn with maybe a pinch of sugar. The hubby was so displeased that he wasted 3 of his wings.
On the up side I did enjoy my caesar salad and the honey chipotle chicken tacos. The chicken was nice crispy but not overly warm. It was still better then those wings we ate. Not much else to say about this place other than the array of music that played and sports on TV. The beer was satisfying but most beers are usually.
The waitress was nice and chatting with us a little while we watched the game but other than that it’s nothing special.

My husband and I have some wonderful memories here. The wings are very good. They also have some good mozzarella sticks and a good environment appropriate for the whole family. Lots of TVs, jukebox, good food for good times.

Went there for lunch yesterday. They were not very busy and we were seated right away. My burger was great. My wife’s french onion soup was good. Our waiter was very good and checked on us often. All in all a very positive experience. We will definitely be going back.

Been going to cleats chains for a couple years now. Went in for a quick dinner and beer and had to watch underage girls and a military vet stumble all over the place dropping the F bomb like it was going away. The bartenders kinda laughed it off and gave them more shots. And this was all before 8 pm on a Tuesday. Food took a while, and drink was on empty for awhile. I will not be going back to this one

I’ve only been here twice and hope to up that number soon. This used to be Maxx Doogans, which was a lovely restaurant chain with three locations close to me. When Cleats bought it out I assumed I would hate it. This was not the case. The food is fantastic (I recommend the chicken Cesar wrap), the wait staff helpful and friendly, and the ambiance was nice even for a sports bar. (I am not a sports fan, but love eating here anyway) If you’re looking for a great place to eat, go to Cleats!

This was my first Cleats experience. I was so upset after we sat down when our waitress was COMPLETELY MIA. Finally, literally two seconds before my hungry husband was ready to huff out, someone took our order. Then someone else sort of brought our drinks (they brought the wrong thing) then the first person brought the right ones. Then someone else brought our food and well into it, «our» waitress finally stopped by. She was horrible. She insulted her other large table who was obviously frustrated with her. But that’s her– I don’t think all of them are like that.
The food was ok — the standard «we’re dipping chicken nuggets in sauce and calling it boneless wings» affair. The curly fries were just like Arby’s — I would have preferred non-​battered fries. The chili cheese fry was MASSIVE — I don’t know WHO could ever eat that. They should warn you that it’s enough for four people. It was ok — too much chili and not enough cheese.
The sauces were alright. Sweet heat was way to hot for people like me that love a good sweet heat sauce. I couldn’t find any vinegar based sauces.
At least the price wasn’t outrageous and the atmosphere was OK.

The food and service were both good.
