This place is weirdly situated in an office building, but it was just a 1/2 mile from my hotel and I saw positive reviews. The menu is eclectic. It varies from traditional Irish fare like Shepherd's Pie, regular pub food and then..."Sunflower seed Beet patty." Whaaaat? There is a a whole mini-menu of healthy options. I ordered the portabello Mushroom burger - which is ground portabello with Quinoa smushed in a patty on a wheat bun with red pepper hummus. It was OK. It wasn't mind blowing...but let me tell you what IS mindblowing: the Irish soda bread biscuits. In hindsight, my initial thought to steal them away in my purse for later was a better idea than simply NOT doing that. I guess I have never had amazingly prepared soda bread. It's usually really dry and bland. But these biscuits...Seriously. They are served warm and the exterior is hard and crunchy, and inside is melty-rich soft bread with jsut a bit of sweetness. I have never experienced anything like it...I guess the next best thing which is a distant 2nd would be the cheddar bay biscuits at red lobster.
So to sum up - menu is ok - it's not offensive. But it's not "Melt Bar and Grilled-holy Lord-that's-amazing." But go for the biscuits. just...just do it.
This place is so much fun!
I went there for the Yelp Elite event and glad I was introduced to it. I love Irish pubs in general and Mavis didn't disappoint.
Very friendly staff. The owner came and chatted with us for a bit.
We tried some of the food choices on the menu and everything was delicious. I especially loved the buffalo chicken dip, which I was told is new to the menu and I believe is on the appetizer portion.
The corned beef on top of the potato pancake was fantastic as well!
Am definitely planning on coming back. Even considering going there with kids for a family dinner sometimes.
It was my first time being here.  I dragged some of my  friends with me and told them all about this yelp event.  I couldnt find where to check in though lol.
We got seats right at the bar and were pretty stoked on the drink specials they had. 2 dollar bud lights and 2 dollar shots from the shot girls. Â The bartenders were super cool and were dressed in browns attire (whooo go browns). Â I didn't get to try their food, but the food from the food trucks outside were awesome. Â Wasn't a big fan of the taco truck though.
The bistro trucks were good. I got some awesome Chili-mac n cheese, cupcakes, donuts, and a buffalo chicken sandwich. Â The tacos were my least favorite though. Super bland no flavor tacos with under seasoned meat.
My experience here at Mavis Winkles was great though. Â Atmosphere was mad fun along with a rowdy browns crowd. Â Screaming and wooting as we go in for the touchdown with bells being rung in the background. Â I would definitely consider coming back here for another browns game and would definitely give their food a whirl next time.
The fish and chips are alright. Â I've probably had them 3-4 times. Â We've stopped in here a few times while visiting OH for business. Â The food and service are ok. Â A few weeks ago the waitress dropped 10 of our orders on the floor, which was fun. Â She came back minutes later with brand new entrees waiting for us. Â They do have a fair amount of beer and we've never been around for the live music. Â Whoever runs the jukebox does seem to have a weird obsession with the band Lighthouse though...
Review Source:Came here while on a business trip. I like alcoholic ciders, and I can always get them at Irish restaurants. Â Was disappointed that the didn't have any on-tap, so I ordered a Magners in the can (the only one they offered). Â They were even out of that! Â At an Irish Pub. I was very disappointed. Â Food was mediocre.
Review Source:Nothing awful to say, but no reason to run back here.
It bills itself as an "Irish Pub" but ... is it really? Was the chicken paprikash Irish? Or the crab cakes? (note: the crab cakes were tasty, not best ever, but certainly hit the spot). I feel like every time I go there, I end up sitting next to people from a conference... but not one I was at. Lots of business people and then I feel like a slacker. The guy next to me said his burger was great, but the fries were gross. The salads are just okay. Next time I debate going here, I'll probably head to the Winking Lizard or Melt.
Good bar food. Â I got the steak, and it was both tasty and cooked correctly. Â Nice bonus that it came with fresh asparagus rather than mushy, greasy veggies. Â Beer was cold. Â I should note that it was a Wed night, so there weren't too many people there. Â I would definitely go back if I was in the area.
Review Source:I would have never thought I'd have left a place called "Mavis Winkle's" feeling as satisfied as I was. But this was a pleasant surprise.
I tried to stalk D&DS but they broke down (funny thing, I was on 77 South and saw their truck smoking at the side of the road. Actually, no, let me reword that: it wasn't funny that their truck was smoking, but it was funny to see them there considering I was on my way to 4200 Rockside to get some of their stuff).
AAAAAnyway, I happened to have a $10 off coupon for Mavis Winkle's on me because of a race I ran (it came in the goody bag). So we went, and I really can't complain!
I had a salad with blackened salmon atop romaine, almonds, and feta. What a treat! I couldn't believe it. The salmon was not just cold and dumped on there with no thought. It was hot and fresh, and cooked PERFECTLY! Really good, and just a little spicy. Derek got a boring chicken sandwich. Whatevs.
Everyone there was really nice, it was spacious, and they had huge screens with sports projected onto them (if I cared about that sort of thing, I'd be really happy about that). Seems like a great happy hour spot. Would love to come back with a group.
I wandered in on a cold evening expecting typical bar food...Wrong! The restaurant just happens to have a good bar but the food was AMAZING. The corned beef and cabbage was excellent, so excellent I came back the next day for the bangers and mash....another wise choice. The menu has so many appealing meals, I may not eat anywhere else for the two weeks I'm visiting Cleveland!
Review Source:Pretty traditional Irish Pub. Â The potato soup and biscuits are really good. Â The corned beef is actually one of the best I've had in the area!
I would love to give them 5 stars but the service was so slow. Â On a week night with a lighter crowd, it still took an hour and half to get served from start to finish. Â I have no idea what my waitress what doing!
I didn't eat there. I went to meet some friends there and had a few drinks. I had a beer on tap and chatted most of the night. But I tell you what, our waitress was awesome. We were a big group on a weeknight and she took good care of us. I'll write more again once I return and try more of their food- by the way, their little beer shot is to DIE for (so says my friends).
Review Source:I have been to an "Irish Pub" or two, but Mavis Winkle's does up some fine fare and in a great atmosphere.
They have  a wide and varied menu, with great seafood, amazing burgers, and sides like their wonderful potato soup and salads that will just make you want more. In addition, the biscuits that come with every order were sweet and wonderful and just added to the joy of the meal.
Their wine, beer and spirits selection is another plus, and after we had a slice of the raspberry cheesecake (a shared splurge for Valentine's Day) the meal, along with the innate warmth of the place was tremendous. You would never have guessed this was a restaurant in an office building.
On top of it all, we had wonderful service. The meal came out a bit slow, but it was worth it as each course was nicely timed. All in all, a great time, and a restaurant that I, for one, will be going back to.
I've got to say I was impressed. I recently flew to Akron for a family wedding and my cousin took me to Mavis Winkles for my first night's meal.
Atmosphere-wise it was perfect. There's lots of dark wood and Irish gewgaws. Service was friendly, helpful and unhurried. The menu was a combination of "traditional" Irish fare and other dishes with irish-y names. Celtic Calamari and Keiran's Quesadilla? Really? That I thought was a tad much.
However, we decided to order off the more authentic part of the menu. We both started with a cup of potato soup and ordered the beer-battered fish and chips (in honor of our Bostonian grandfather). Everything was great, but HUGE. There was no hope at all of coming close to finishing! One item worth mentioning are the rolls. I was not a fan of the chives mixed in but, that aside, they tasted just like my grandfather's Irish soda bread!
Also, should you attend during this holiday season, consider their drink of the month, mint chocolatini. Pretty good stuff!
I had a surprise birthday party at Mavis Winkle's for my husband and they did a really great job. We chose to have 2 hours of endless appetizers (6 different types and all good). The staff took very nice care of us and I was very happy to leave at the end with nothing to clean up or drag home!
Review Source:Their drink selections is decent, and their menu is okay. Â Certainly not authentic Irish food, it's more like Americanized Irish food. Â I'm a fan of the Shamrock Dip. Â The atmosphere is casual and fun. Â I really only came to this place when I happened to work for a business that was located several floors above it, though.
