Beachcliff Tavern

Seems a place for regulars. Owner sat in a booth and directed his servers as he played mob boss. Food was slow to get out and not much value.
Sure great for parties as they did have a large room but seems many other places we do it better.

Good place for brunch on Sunday mornings after a good tennis session. The omelets are good, my one complaint is that they charge extra for extra dressing, the staff are nice and usually attentive to each table. Give it a try at dinner too, good burgers and pasta dishes too.

Really nice wait staff, and I’m currently obsessed with the chicken quesadilla. It’s one of the few places I feel comfortable enough to have dinner by myself. The food is really, consistently good, and you can get it as take out. I could rave about this place all night, but frankly, I don’t want it to get so over crowded that I can’t get a table. I have not tried the brunch, but my friends that have love it. My only con is– I wish they had a few more types of gin. If that’s the worst thing I can say, then it’s all good, right?

I am down with the Cliff. We ended up here on a Friday evening because we passed up places that were more crowded because we are not big crowd folk. There was a nice gathering at the Cliff but nothing we couldn’t handle. I had the pretzel crusted grouper and a bombay sapphire and tonic, my date for the evening had a calzone. All the food was devoured and approved by the person who ordered it. I don’t know if their fish is wild caught or not that would be a plus. I am a fan of this place and would return again. The bartenders were helpful in my indecision of ordering and they were super friendly while we dined.

Great Sunday brunch for $ 8 — 10. Service is ok too… As long as you make it before the noon rush.

Only 1 star because I have to. This place sucks. The drinks are ok, nothing special. Way too sweet but still drinkable.
The food is some of the worst I’ve ever had. The avacado was so raw and hard I couldn’t even cut it with a knife and fork. How can they serve that?! The salad was gross and little more than lettuce with crappy dressing. Veggie wrap was a salad in a wrap. The Brie was literally cheaper than giant eagle quality and awkward to eat.
Whoever owns this place or does the menu clearly has not a shred of pride because this is disgraceful.

No.
Just… No. It was disgusting, dirty, and smelled of cat piss. Horrible.
Our server appeared to be a 15 year old boy. It was the most awkward thing ever.
I’ll never go back. Ever.

The Beachcliff Tavern is consistently decent. I’ve mostly come here for Sunday brunch, although a few years ago we’d come once in a while to drink on the patio in the back of the restaurant. We must have drank a LOT during those times because my memories of hanging out here are pretty haphazard.
Beachcliff is a bar and restaurant. I’d say it’s pretty family friendly. It has a party room in the rear of the building. There’s limited on street parking out front, a parking lot in back and a large parking lot across the street.
The breakfasts are good. Nothing spectacular, but decent. During the breakfast service, you get a plate of small brownies for the table. A small bowl of fresh fruit accompanies the meals. The toast isn’t buttered, and on my recent visit, it wasn’t warm either. The butter is served cold or frozen in tiny plastic single serving containers, so if you want to spread (cold/​hard/​frozen) butter on your cold toast, good luck. That’s a bummer to me. This unbuttered toast sadness is usually cured by the mimosas they offer during brunch.
Maybe if I lived in Rocky River, I’d come here more often. It’s not usually on my radar of places I want to go, but I have no problem going if someone else wants to come here.
It’s a pretty big dining room with a decent sized bar. There’s always people in here despite there being quite a few dining options nearby. This would be great and somewhat low key place to watch a game as they have a number of tvs.

Bravo! My wife and I stopped in and both had a calzone. She had the vegetable one while I enjoyed the italien sausage. Both were awesome.
Great fillings and great crust. If you like garlic, these are for you.

Hands down the best thing about Beachcliff is the food. Typical bar food, but it is absolutely delicious! The wraps and burgers are a solid go to.
Also happy hour until 6pm, wish it was 7 — but it’s better than nothing!

Their website states happy hour Mon-​Sun 3 – 6 *Wings not included. We went on Saturday. The only thing allowed for happy hour was cheese sticks, cheddar poppers, and kettle chips… And $ 2 off wine, their website is very misleading. The waitress was sort of clueless, wasn’t sure about the soup, that’s fine, she just started her shift. Not sure of the beer list… And she goes to the bar to check instead of looking at the laminated menu where it’s very clearly stated after just handing it to us… She also had to go in the back to check if there was any happy hour at all, she didn’t think so. That being said, bruschetta was good, wasn’t a fan of the rolls as the base, I did like the complimentary rolls, but once toasted, buttered, & parmesan’ed for the bruschetta, they were just too hard and thick. Kettle chips were kinda nasty, husbands southwest wrap looked good. Portions are huge, share an appetizer & a sandwich & you should be set. Won’t be back.

Stopped in there after the sunflower wine festival. We were a little skeptical because from the outside it looked just like a bar, but once inside we were pleasantly surprised! Service was wonderful, food was great and prices were perfect. Will absolutely go back. Three of us ate, had beers and food for under 40 dollars, can’t go wrong!

I used to come every Sunday for their half off pizza deal, but they got rid of it. I love their brunch, which is also sold on saturdays.
The burgers are great, but I especially love the clam bake when it is offered! The staff is super friendly and they remember us! It makes us feel special!

Thought the food and drink prices were very reasonable and was surprised at how good their food was. May be thought of as a place that just has bar food by appearances but food is far better. Was a pleasant surprise. Service and kindness were outstanding. Breadfast is also fabulous. Will have to remember to make it a regular go to place.

The Beachcliff is just a great place… beer specials, very good food and attentive, friendly service. Their salads are really generous and very tasty — to me, so good that that’s what I usually order here for an entrée. Great calamari appetizer too. There’s usually (always?) a cheap domestic draft special as well as Guinness and other good drafts. This place has a pub vibe to it… friendly with professional service, very reasonable prices. For a drink or casual dinner that is better than average, this place is tough to beat.

The best family restaurant In town, the environment is very welcoming and friendly! Fits for every occasion, great place to bring your family or friends to watch the games in the big screen TV’s! The service is excellent, as well the place hosts parties in their party room in the back capacity 150 ppl. (or possibly more)
If you are looking for a good time, this place would be it… As well Live music on Saturday nights

Great prices, great food.
I can’t get enough of the salads that are served at Beachcliff Tavern. For less than $ 9 a salad, you get a HUGE portion, enough for two people. The Athenian is a salad with a ton of chicken, feta, black olives and artichokes. It’s an explosion of flavors! All the meal items are reasonably priced and the kitchen does a great job of getting the food cooked fast.
I would highly recommend the Beachcliff Tavern for appetizers and drinks, lunches or dinner. Great options for all.

I can honestly say that I have never had a bad meal at the beachcliff. The runners breakfast is a personal fave followed by the beef brisket. The service is always personalized and attentive. Weda and lady do a great job at the bar and the servers keep your drinks filled. The beachcliff is my go to pub when I’m on the westside. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

How can you not love a place that brings warm, fresh-​from-​the-​oven brownies to the table along with your mimosa?! Now that is the way to start of the day! Everything was made from scratch… from the forementioned brownies to escalloped apples to crisp, chunky, garlicky homefries. Try the ABC omelette… those delicious escalloped apples are layered with melted cheddar and crisp bacon for a differently delicious dish! Great staff, too!

This Rocky River tavern is aptly named. It is nice enough to grab a civilized dinner or lunch, but in late hours, a mix of ages and west/​far west side demographics fill up the bar and back party room.
They often run events in the back room, such as corn hole tournament or a «sweat pant party» (I kid you not). The crowd can very from low key, to a step-​up in age and class to McCarthy’s.
