Beef ‘O’ Brady’s

I generally don’t rate chains with 5-​stars. Maybe that’s wrong but there should be a star for holding your own. Having said that, my sons and I were very satisfied with the service and food here on a Saturday afternoon. I had no idea there was a Beef’s on the campus inside the Marshal Center.

Just went recently with my friend and our server was really sweet! I had a chicken wrap with fries and it was delicious!

Came here to visit some friends at USF — I’m an alumni, so we stopped into the restaurant and had a very nice experience. The only negative I could find was there were no gluten free buns or anything, so I just got my burger without one. Nice plate — the kitchen did a really nice job here. I’m assuming the grill they use is just a regular grill because the burger was so greasy… maybe not a charbroiled grill like the one used to cook steaks? Regardless it was fine for a quick meal — and the funnel fries for dessert were amazing!

It’s a great place to grab some food while your studying. The servers are very nice. There’s a pool table and sometimes they do karaōke.

This Beef O Brady’s is located inside the USF student center.
Free pool, lots of tv’s, place is kept clean. Food is good, service is slow. I like all of the USF décor they have and it’s never overly crowded. During the weekdays I believe beer is served after 5pm.

Typical sports bar atmosphere. Nothing special that would keep me coming back.

The wings are terrible and so are the sandwiches. Tastes like they are re-​heating what was left over from the day before. Even the service is usually poor. The on campus location is the only thing going for this place. It would not take much effort to improve this place. What a shame…

Look, not many campuses come with a sports bar. And though it could be better, having one on campus does make life much easier. They get all the major football, baseball, and basketball packages as well, so you can walk from your dorm room to a good bar with perfectly average food and catch a game. That’s a huge bonus for a dorm rat from somewhere else.
It’s Beef’s, so the franchise fried cuisine is exactly what you’re thinking it is when you read this sentence. You can almost taste the Sysco truck exhaust in your wings.
But there continues to be one major, overriding issue. NO BOOZE BEFORE 5PM! This apparently relates to a time where students (and allegedly professors) were getting sloshed before night classes. This prime directive came from the highest levels of management, and the scourge of drunj on campus on weeknights was hopefully alleviated.
I kid because I care, but props to the new Marshall Center for putting a nice place for the kids to watch a game and get a beer without leaving the friendly confines of Fowler and Fletcher. I’d rather be eating better food too, but can’t be too picky in this situation.

We came.
We ATE
We LOVED it. Great FOOD. I couldn’t believe our luck. We talked about it that same night… what a stroke of luck to find this place while being in Tampa on business. Try everything, we did.
The only downside was they had only one poor server in the whole place, she was running around like crazy… we felt bad for her.
The place was rather quiet for a bar… but we were too involved in wings, fries, curly fries, fish and chips, turkey ruben and more…

The on-​campus Beef O Brady’s location in the Marshall Center provides good food conveniently. The service falls due to students frequenting the place all the time, but you still get your food so it’s alright. The bar and pool tables provide a little extra that you would not expect to find before at USF. I love ordering regular cheeseburgers there or having BBQ wings. A few of my friends have had birthday lunches there and it went pretty well so I am glad it has come to campus. Prices don’t seem to be jacked up either.
