I have not been to a Miller's Ale House in years. Â One of the reasons is I never found the menu to be veg-head friendly. Â
I came with my sister recently. Â I was very surprised that they added vegetarian friendly options to the menu. Â I thought was great.
What I did not like was the service. Â Our waiter was so slow. Â He passed our table several times not asking us if we needed anything else when we did. Â We also saw him sit down with someone for a few minutes at a time while we were waiting. Â The bottom line is my sister and I ordered chips and salsa. Â She ordered a small plate of food while I just had a martini. Â We we were there almost two hours which did not make any sense.
I was going to give this place two stars. Â The reason they got an extra star from me is because the drinks are good prices. Â I would come here for some drinks but not to keen on eating there.
Went out with some girls for happy hour and it was OK. Â The service is ultimately what didn't do it for me. But they tried which was nice.
We all ordered drinks, and the FIRST round, they messed up, 2 long Islands, 2 Margarita's and 1 Sam Adams... doesn't seem to difficult?
Got 3 Margarita's and a Long Island, we were all thinking WTF? how do you mess that up, we were sitting outside by the way, which was really nice outdoor bar.
We let the server know she messed up and she let us keep the extra margarita and brought the Sam Adams and second Long Island on the house, VERY nice. Â We ended up getting the Veggie Fajitas, really yummy. And ended with a round of Tequila Shots, which were a great price!
Would have been 5 stars if it weren't for the mishap, still going to check it out again
Last night was very disappointing. Â When I first moved to Boynton, I loved this place. Â I would sit at the outside bar, have a drink and chow down on some food. Â I found their spinach dip to be fantastic and the chicken oriental salad (hold the chicken) to hit the spot.
I came here last night around 9 p.m. for some grub. Â The waiter took forever to get to us. Â We started with the spinach dip. Â It was good but something about it was not as good as before. Â I am not sure what they may have changed, if anything. Â Maybe an off night?
Next, I order the oriental salad (without the chicken). Â It was blah. Â The dressing on that salad is fantastic. Â The quality of the lettuce was poor and yellowish. Â I just felt like their was zero effort when preparing my salad, which shouldn't be so hard. Â
Here was the biggest problem: Â the spinach dip comes not too long after we order. Great! Â However, my salad came out like 45 mins later. Â He even asked me if I wanted my salad, while still eating the spinach dip. Â I said, "Can you bring in like 5 mins?" Â He said, "sure." Â
Well, I had to ask for the salad after sitting with an empty bowl of chips for 30 mins. Â It took over two hours there with only ordering two small items. Â
I was really disappointed in the quality of food and especially the service.
Miller's ale house in Boynton has a nice outdoor bar where I sat during the mid afternoon time. They had great drinks and their bistro burger was very good. I had one major problem, however. Their fries were terrible: white spongy and gross. I doubt this is always common, fries being so important, but I sent mine back and received the same thing (Maybe put in the fryer for 5 seconds longer.) The cool thing was that they have a comment system on their receipt. I proceeded to fill it out. The manager of the restaurant called me back 5 minutes!! after I left the restaurant. I should have asked for him to let him know, but I didn't want to be that annoying customer. I was very impressed with their follow up and I wasn't planning on returning, but think I will now.
Review Source:Not a BIG fan, but it'll do in a pinch. Nothing jumps off the menu at you and when it arrives it's like my rating - OK. Service this night wasn't the best either as waitress had an attitude that seemed like someone else was stealing her table. Once things settled down she did alright, but again, food is filling, beer is cold, TV screens are visible - overall experience is just an OK.
Review Source:Not a good thing when the cook is munching on french fries while he is cooking food. Luckily, I was watching the black dude from my vantage point eating and yelling to his boss to let him leave early. Food disaster averted. Did have a $2 beer on Monday, so stick to drinking at this chain hell.
Review Source:It's a sport bar with sports bar food. Â Fried, greasy, and everything was probably frozen. Â But I gotta say, the portion sizes are huge! Â The chicken nachos were huge but not that great, the pasta was just ok and the fish n chips were like any other fried and battered fish served with tarter sauce. Â I wasn't impressed.
Review Source:A few weeks ago, while at Slainte's Irish Pub, across the street, my friends and I decided to check out the Ale house as part of our bar-hopping evening. We went inside and we were disappointed with the atmosphere, people, and the food they were serving looked so unappetizing. The bartender was nice though. They have a lot of tv's inside and 2 pool tables. It was so and so.
Friday evening, my husband and I decided to try the Ale house again and sat at the outside bar. It was actually better for drinks in the breeze. The bartender was also very nice. The people were talkative and we all were talking about the recent Mets game. We still didn't try their food as it still looked unappetizing and the menu choices were really weird, too. IMO, it's better off as a bar than as a restaurant.
I'm sorry, but if my only request for the hostess is seating by a TV showing the game, and you seat me in the most awkward booth in the house where I have to look completely vertical; we have a problem. This is a sports bar! Â Screw your seating rotation, honor the customer's request.
Review Source:This place used to be awesome, but now it is below average. They changed the pasta, it is now flavorless and always overcooked. Their new mozzarella sticks are now nasty! Their wings are now much smaller than they used to be, but they still have good flavor. Their nachos used to be layered, and now they are not. Just overall the place has gone downhill. Their zingers are still great, and they have some nice dinner specials. The service is hit or miss, but usually pretty good. Ok place, but I wish they would bring back their old food!
Review Source:I've been visiting and enjoying the Boynton Ale House for way too many years now. It holds a special place in my heart for that reason, so maybe I'm a bit biased. They mostly serve up sports bar-type food, but it's definitely a notch above the average fare and there are also a few atypical items on the menu. The Zinger Melt (buffalo chicken strips with melted cheese, pico de gallo and sour cream) is probably my favorite meal here. Some other classics on the menu include the ridiculously huge Chicken Nachos and Captain Jack's Buried Treasure, which is an ice cream cake dessert. The service has always been good to me here and, like I said, I've been coming for years. Never had any real problems. A great place to grab a casual bite with some friends, as the menu is diverse enough that everyone is bound to find something they like. They have a pretty solid beer selection these days too!
Review Source:I like the outside bar better than inside dinning but it is nice inside also. you HAVE to try to mozzarella crab bites!!!!! Â They are delicious! Â There is a lot to choose from on the menu and they are known for their zingers(chicken strips) which are very good anyway you get em and on anything. Â The drink prices are good and the quality and variety of food is good as well. I think it is a very good spot all around.
Review Source:HORRIBLE FOOD! HORRIBLE SERVICE! Â ..I would rather eat out of a garbage can. Â The hosts could not be bothered with you. Â It took over an hour to get our appetizer. Â I never even got to order dinner. Â Server was rude and never even apologized for the delay. Â Not worth my time or my money.
Review Source:My experience overall was pretty good. The Baby Back Ribs were OK, Â but neede a side of bbq sauce to add add any taste. They were served lukewarm with a side of raw and crispy fries mixed together. The plastic plates were a big turnoff. The waitress was fast and efficient. For $11.00 for a full rack , the value was good, but I'd pay more to have the food served hot on a real plate. Three stars.
Review Source:Standard ale house sort of fare. Â I don't like the clientel, too many old people. Â Seriously, I hate eating around people sucking oxygen through a tube. Â The outdoor bar is nice, and I love the comfy couches. Â I wish it were a little cheaper, and they put a little effort into the food.
Review Source:It's a nice place to go and get together for drinks and food while watching a game. Â This place is loaded with tvs, so I assume that all the games will be on under one roof. Â I have been here quite a few times, but it was called the Boynton Beach Ale House before. Â When I saw that it got converted over to a new management, I mentioned it to my hubby and we decided to treat a couple of our friends out that helped us moved. Â I had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich that was topped with crispy onion strings on a toasted roll. Â Of course, I had to have fries with mine. Â It was delish! Â Something different to try out if you are in the BB area.
Review Source:This place is really good for what it is and despite its absent-minded (but apologetic!) waitress. During my family's last week-long vacation to Boynton Beach, we visited here twice. The first time I got veggie fajitas which were delicious (maybe even better than Chili's!), and my dad said his some-sort-of-fish piccatta was great.
It's good food for a good price in a casual atmosphere.
Great place. Food is good, and they have a lot of items you wouldn't typically find in a sports bar. Their drink specials are awesome. My guy & I love to go here for $5 pitchers of beer & the spinach dip. My only issue here is service can be a little crappy at times. But overall it is a great place to go!
Review Source:I'm going to start this off by saying I used to love eating at the Ale House for lunch or dinner with my man. Â This was probably about 8 or so months ago and beyond before my boyfriend stopped working from home. Â Everything was always delish and I would happily agree to anyone who suggested eating here.
Unfortunately, this is no longer the case. Â I ate there two times in the past week (Wednesday for lunch and Monday for dinner). Â I went there the first time because we had an out of town guest who we brought to the Ale House a year ago on his last visit and he loved the steak sandwich. Â Second time was to give them a fair chance thinking this first visit may have been a fluke.
Meh.
Starting with my lunch visit Wednesday:  They have quite a few new items on the menu from when I last visited  I got the new key lime salad because it sounded fresh and flavorful.  I was very disappointed to find that entire bowl of lettuce was brown and wilted.  They didn't even try to mix in fresh lettuce to try and hide that fact from me  The blackened chicken on top tasted okay, but it seemed a bit fatty.  I ate some chicken and told the waiter my issue with the lettuce.  He took the salad back and removed it from our bill.  The manager at the time came over a few minutes later asking who had the issue and if I'd like anything else.  I politely declined as the chicken was sufficient for me at the time.
Second visit, Monday for dinner, I got the ribs as they were on special and they used to be my fav place to eat ribs. Â They were always fall off the bone tender and smothered in yummy bbq sauce. Â This time they were a bit dry and tough.. lacking in bbq sauce for sure. Â I asked the waitress for more sauce, but it really couldn't salvage the dish. Â A different manager of the day was casually strolling by tables asking how things were, but really, I didn't want to make an issue yet again so I smiled and he went on his way.
I am giving two stars because my issue was resolved without incident and my guest liked his steak sandwich (he ordered that entree both visits). Â Managers are definitely walking around checking how things are, but I am afraid this is not increasing the quality of the food being served.
This place is so good we had a 40 minute wait on a Monday night at 6:40pm.  And, it was well worth the wait(there were stores to browse in nearby and the restaurant gave u a clicker so we kept busy). The service was great.  We both ordered a cajun pasta  with chicken that came with Mahi-mahi for a mere $1 more.  It was a huge portion of al dente pasta and nicely blackened fish with fresh mushrooms, chop'd fresh tomatoes all in a very delicious light cream sauce. The whole dish cost $12.99(with the lrge peice of mahi-mahi), and a large ceasar or tossed salad was $1.95. We had the Ceasar and they were big and delicious. They also have great nightly specials like $10.99 for a full rack of ribs with potatoe and 1 1/4 lb Maine lobster for $14.99 both being enjoyed by many patrons.  I cant wait to go back. My only complaint; only booths that dont move and are a bit confining for larger folk.
Review Source:This place is always busy. We were lucky to get there and immediately be seated. Expect to wait. The bar is huge and always full of fun people. I'm a huge fan of their fajitas. Tonight though I decided to try the Chicken Philly. Not impressed. My party ordered the Chicken Caesar, Salmon, and Zinger Salad. We also split the Fish Dip. The fish dip was ok. Not the best I've had. I thought it was a little dry. The salmon came out over cooked and flavorless. The salads were excellent though. Service was really good. She was on top of everything =) Afterwards we enjoyed a couple of games at their pool tables and called it a night.
Review Source:This place has decent affordable food. They also have a decent beer selection. It's really annoying that it's crowded with senior citizens and "bro" types over by the pool tables and high tops. I'd never come here to just drink. It's conveniently located and is decent enough to visit on multiple occasions. An OK joint.
