Garage Bar Willoughby

My boss and I went here for lunch a few weeks ago. Friendly staff! The wait for our food VERY LONG, but we survived. The food was good - I have had better and I have had worse.

Would NOT trust booking events based off my experience. I booked my husband's 50th birthday gathering with Mckenzie and Danni 2 months in advance. They were both terrific and displayed excellent customer service skills. I felt comfortable and confident that I was in good hands. Then 2 weeks before our big day, I get notified by Erin (new management) that I would need to pick a new date because they were now hosting some type of Bar Olympics on the same day and we would probably clash with the younger crowd. All I kept thinking was WOW, great way to treat someone and leave them hanging. I ended up moving our small get together to Two Bucks and had an amazing time thanks to Amber and her staff! Thank goodness honest caring people still exist.

I am definitely being generous because we are still in the COVID-19 pandemic and we've not been anywhere to eat since December. But upon arriving to a completely empty restaurant/bar at 1230 on Sunday for lunch, it was not a great experience. Sat at the bar and noticed the two (2) see though partitions are not stationary which means they can be moved as needed. Fine. However, the bar stools don't have much room between them so if you want to sit at the bar, you are definitely sitting too close to someone you don't know.Sat down and immediately ordered the .20 mussels. 5 minutes later we ordered our food.A few ppl showed up after about 15 minutes of arriving. They only ordered drinks.Mussels took at least 25 minutes. Food took about 30. Remember, we were the only good order. Mussels were super tiny, my wrap was good for sure but the fish sandwich my husband had was hammered. Maybe their wings and burgers are good but for us, it's not a place we'll revisit.

Stopped in for a quick drink and was ignored by both bartenders. Relatively small bar, only had about 10 customers inside when I arrived. Both of the young ladies behind the bar walked by me taking care of everyone else and even checking up on people who already ordered and got their drinks. Eventually, I got one of their attention and said I'd like to order and it was like I suddenly appeared out of the ether right before her eyes. They obviously didn't feel like serving me for whatever reason. I payed for two drinks ahead of time, which she made at once filled with ice so I literally had a quick drink and got out of there. Never again...

If you have an out of state ID don't come here. They will hustle you and the "manager" will ask for 5 forms of ID/credit cards. Absolutely killed the group vacation and ruined our night. Mike is the only one who cares about his job

I would NEVER go to this bar to eat unless I was absolutely plastered or starving and no other place was open and that would still be slim. Got a small Caesar salad and it apparently comes with tomato's on it. We were the only ones who ordered and 2 other people at the bar and it took 35mins for wings and fries. I know wings take a minute to cook but absolutely uncalled for. HOLY salt on fries it's like the person put a pound on. Wings were slimy and gross. Also asked for ranch which i expect to get charged for but 3.00 for 2 side cups half full?! I could have went to store for that. Overall top 5 worst places we have eaten at and we have been to quit a few questionable places LOL. Also service not the best took about 10 mins for my boyfriend to get another drink when there was only 2 others inside I guess they only care about "posting photos" to advertise then taking care of there customers.

Great service, Friendly staff, AMAZING FOOD, tried the "cooks corner special" that was recommended by the bartender and it was amazing. Can't praise this place enough for its simplicity and home town environment.

Slowest service for being the only table in the bar. Food came out 1 by 1 over the course of 40 minutes. Drinks are tiny

I walked in and knew I would like the place. --I do not drink. So, it is huge that there is stuff to do for party poopers like me. The staff all look interesting to talk with. The menu will not break the bank. The patio out back has room for a large group.

Wish I could give this place zero stars and like 10 thumbs down. Place is gross. Super trashy. The bartenders are super trashy and only care about getting drunk and flirting with the simp regulars. Typical trashy Downtown Willoughby vibe. Everyone looks like they have at least one STD. The guys there almost definitely carry roofies. You will definitely get puked on by a drunk bartender. Don't go here. Zero stars.
