So apparently when I drive by Savannah's every weekend, the parking is full of every 60+ person on the west-side of Cleveland. A friend of mine and I were bar hopping on a random Tuesday night and ended up at Savannah's for a drink. Turns out it was definitely an oldies night, which I believe is every night. I think I saw a calendar that had a 70s night on it, but I would guess that receives a similar crowd...
The place was jam packed full of people my grandparents age! I mean they were getting down on the dance floor. Some of the moves were even a little ri-que! Every person had a drink in their hand too so the place is not hurting for business at all! Personally for the place, I expected the beers to be cheaper, I could go to ATC and get a $4 draft and have good eye candy at least.
After one drunk 80 year old man offered me a glow stick bracelet, and make a joke of staring at my chest, we decided to leave.
Definitely an experience, but one that I will not ever want to relive.
Nothing memorable to speak of. Â Went on a Friday night, and yes, as other reviewers have noted, the crowd is definitely older. As the night wore on mid-twenties individuals came in. However, the music was ok. As it changes nightly not much to say about this. They have a dance floor that was well used on the evening I was there. My friend and I sat at the bar, bartender was semi-attentive. My mixed drinks (Jameson and Ginger Ale) were weak and nothing to speak of, but I believe only $4. While I was excited to head here due to hearing they have live music 7 nights a week, I most likely will not be returning. Not the right crowd, vibe or cocktail for me.
Review Source:The only reason we decided to try out Savannah's was because my mom bought us a <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Frestaurant.com&s=c5fe485af4df376130bee54f875814d79c4d7913e1258123b1206d2bdbf4873b" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://restaurant.com</a> certificate - thank god we had that free $25.
1. a tip for servers - just because you see one of your tables has a <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Frestaurant.com%2Fgroupon%2Flivingsocial%2Fwhatever&s=e0e590a154d0927dc620b04353ce202cc246dcec628c784f7c0972a8507b9b3e" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://restaurant.com/gr…</a> - doesn't mean you should neglect them because you'll be getting a tip anyway - a lot of people typically tip better than that. - our server came up to us three times after we got our food - once to check on us, once to give us the bill and the last time to collect her tip. - terrible service.
2. the food - awful. for an appetizer we ordered the jalapenos stuffed with shredded chicken and wrapped in bacon - sounds delicious, right? wrong. three very small jalapenos on a bed of instant rice that was watery, mushy and flavorless. Â jalapenos, chicken and bacon - no flavor just some heat. Â the three of us tried three different sandwiches - one corned beef, one pulled pork and a patty melt - we all ate half and threw out the other.
3. we didn't stay long enough but judging by the crowd the geezecats brought in, i'd say it was awful.
Safe to say I'll never spend another dime at Savannah's.
Cougartown in a strip mall. Â I was forced to come here on multiple occasions when they sponsored a softball team I was pitching on. Â Here and there I get suckered into coming to meet some friends here as well. Â The food isn't that bad but it's nothing you would have to come back for. Â The biggest misnomer of this place is that it calls itself a blues bar. Â On occasion they have a blues band here and there. Â I am guessing maybe once a week. Â The rest of the time it is oldies. Â Like 50's, 60's kind of stuff. Â I just don't consider it a blues bar. Â It's as much a blues bar as Brothers is I guess though. Â
The layout is that of a strip mall bar. Â Sterile white, low ceilings, smaller bar up front, a few booths along the walls, "dance floor", and uncomfortable rickety chairs around the tables that pepper the dance floor. Â Beer selection is minimal, full bar with booze and service is hit or miss but tends to miss. Â
This place is pretty notorious for females of a certain age to come hook up with youngsters. Â It is the cougar bar to end all cougar bars to put it bluntly. Â Parking sucks ass, it's next to an Aldi's...hmmm what else can I say to make it any more appealing? Â Oh yeah, good luck turning left out of the parking lot.
Was out shopping at Crocker and my friend chose this place for us to meet rather than one of the overpriced uppity bars at Crocker. Â It's pretty much across the street but feels like it's much farther. Â
I walked on a Saturday around 6 and was easily the youngest person there but 20 years. Â I'm pretty sure I text my friend "It smells like old people in here" while I was waiting. Â However, I'd rather have that crowd than MILF's and Cougars. Â
Haven't experienced the entertainment here, but I know they do have a lot of bands and heard it was fun. Â I wouldn't mind coming back and checking it out.
Oh, parking sucks. Â There's a lot but it's in a strip and I guess I went around dinner time. Â
Service was quick and semi-friendly; did the job.
Haven't been in awhile, but the entertainment here is usually very good - both on the stage and off the stage. They play jazz, oldies, you name it and the dancers are sometimes in their 60's!
Great bar and table service but don't go to eat during the entertainment since the service tends to suffer a bit. Very good, surprisingly, Sunday brunch - and you get to see the place in the light.
