Great local pub. Jessie is a great server. Food is always yummy :) She has even kept up with my ever changing requests for different foods according to my mood. She makes that place with her smile, and cheery disposition. I might not be here as much, but when I want a pub which makes me feel like home, then this is the place to go to....I highly recommend their burgers, and wings....and their caesar salad is super yummy too :)

Definitely will have to come back! Great prices, awesome sports bar with TVs at every table and all over the walls. They offer a wide selection of pub favorites and some contemporary items, as well. I really enjoyed looking over the menu and will have to return to try some of their other grub. We decided to go out for my birthday and after looking over a bunch of choices, we picked this place for its location and prices. We started with the fried pickles; fresh, hot and crispy. We then ordered the Great White Pizza-- a white pizza with olive oil and Parmesan and mozzarella, topped with fresh tomatoes on a oven-crisp thin crust. Aside from being a little greasy, it was gone! Like it! Boyfriend loves it! For my birthday, they offered us a complementary basket of funnel fries that, when dipped in the strawberry sauce, are out-of-this-world. A nice American joint that I wouldn't mind watching a Bama game at while grubbing on some guilt-latent fare.

More like a 3.5. Wings were soggy but had a good taste. I would recommend ordering them extra crispy. The service was friendly and attentive. The local Pensacola Bay Lil' Napoleon IPA is a decent brew and you will not be disappointed if you like craft IPA's. It nice when more than just the mainstream beer offerings are available. Some booths have their own TV that you can select the station on. Will be back again...

I usually love coming here. I've never had an issue before last night. The food was great don't get me wrong! I only saw my server 3 times. Twice I had to ask the hostess and another waitress where mine was. I don't know about Yall but I like to get my appetizer before my food. My son and I got our fried pickles way after I had finished my salad and he his fries. It wasn't busy and it's not a very large restaurant either. The table that got there 20 minutes after we did left before we did. Oh but she was prompt after the check hit the table. Saw her every 10 seconds after that. Ridiculous. Not going back for a while.

My favorite local sports bar. Plenty of TVs, and always willing to put on what you want. The locals are friendly and the food is good, a mix of Irish-themed and American pub food. Beer selection is a little more limited than some bars but your classic average joes beer is here. Staff has always been friendly and the food is served promptly!

My family tends to patronize "Beef's" during football season, and then we go there about every other weekend. I have to agree with some of the previous posts. The girls who serve the tables often seemed a bit "disinterested" in serving their tables. The food is okay, while not being at all "great." Some of the sandwiches are pretty good. I wouldn't recommend the wings. The nachos are pretty good. Restrooms are always clean and bright. The restaurant areas are also usually very clean (until the games start). I've also noticed that they get a bit of friction from some customers as new patrons walk in while games are already under way, and being watched by those already at the tables/bar. About 6 or 7 years ago Beef's was almost always packed when there were big games under way. But there have been a few other good sports bars opened in the area, so now it's pretty easy to get a table, even on the busiest sports days. If the game you want to see is not on local TV, Beef's is a good alternative. They don't often have big pay-per-view events. I've called Beef's a couple times when there were big MMA fights on pay-per-view, and Beef's never had the fight on their TVs. Were I the manager at Beef's this is what I would do to improve the place: - Get someone in there to train the servers how to attend to tables. Table service at Beef's is marginal, at best. If the owner/manager hasn't figured that out and corrected it by now (and he/she clearly hasn't, because it's a common thread among many of the reviews) they'll never fix it "in-house." This is a problem area for Beef's. Your table servers are hurting your business. The best service I've ever had in your restaurant (and I've been there many times) has been "fair." Fix this! - Before a big Saturday or Sunday of football (or any sport), go around and clearly label the TVs so everyone who walks into your restaurant will know where they need to sit to watch the game they want to see. Honestly, it's idiotic to force the customers to always ask your clueless wait staff which game will be on which TV, because every time I've asked that question the waitress has to go to the manager to re-ask the question, than come back to tell me...HUGE waste of time. Just get NFL banners for each team (a few for each), and tape the banner for each team next to the TV set that will be playing that game...simple, cute, and effective. - Get FM transmitters like the ones they use at fitness centers (they're about $60 each) and hook them to the large screen TVs. Put a little sign up with the FM Freq for the game on each TV, so people watching a TV that doesn't have the volume turned up can still listen to THEIR GAME! Once people see that you have that capability you'll start see customers showing up with FM armband radios and earphones. - Run some customer games during your football, baseball, basketball broadcasts. For example, create a little sheet that allows a customer to put his name, and his prediction for the final "spread" or score, or over/under, or win/loss...whatever you want, and give each customer one opportunity to guess the results of the game they're watching. Give a small food prize or coupon to the person who comes closest to the actual score at the end of the game. Like "Pick the final score for Monday night's football game and win a $25 Beef's gift certificate. That does two things for you: it adds "fun" to your venue, and it encourages people to keep their asses in the seats longer, so you make more $$!

This used to be pretty terrible, but they have really improved a lot. The food is much better, service quicker, and its a whole lot cleaner. Also, this is the only sit down restaurant I know of that has a Coca-Cola Freestyle machine.

No welcome on entry. No service, drinks or water. Only paid attention as we were leaving hungry and disappointed. Servers were preoccupied with their own drinks and watching TV. Never going back.

I didn't go here for long time because of nasty smelly carpet but that is fixed. New floors no smell. Service is hit or miss. There is few girls that been there long time they are great. They have the best burger around. Cheeseburger wrap My only issue with you guys is your ff portions. I think you have cut back to far. Sometimes I have counted ff and hsve gotten 8-11. Girls will get me few extra if I ask. Don't be cheap on ff . You have regained my business. See you soon!

About Applebee's
Applebee is an American full-service restaurant brand popularly known for its signature Riblets. Applebee was conceptualized in 1980 by Bill and TJ Palmer in Atlanta, Georgia. At first, the restaurant was named T.J. Applebee's RX for Edibles and Elixirs. After the concept was acquired by W.R. Grace and Company, the restaurant was renamed as Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar. Later the company and the Applebee's concept changed hands with Abe Gustin and John Hamra who started the first Applebee's franchise restaurant in Kansas City.
Later in 2007, IHOP Corp. now known as DineEquity, Inc. acquired Applebee's and began their journey together to make Applebee's the world's largest full-service restaurant chain. Today, Applebee's serves at more than 1,830 locations worldwide. The Applebee's menu ranges from Appetizers and Salads to heavy meals consisting of ribs and steak. Although the trademark dish Riblets is a hot favorite among regular Applebee's dwellers, the restaurant also serves some amazing burgers, sandwiches, pasta, and salads.
