Does the addition have a tin ceiling? -acoustics problem.

The Speakeasy is super high priced with with watered down small drinks and horrible food. They seem to be more concerned about making money than providing a nice social place and good food and drinks. O'Rileys staff is all super nice, friendly, food and drinks are great and the prices are good.

The service issue is not a rare issue there. I've heard from a few friends that they had less than stellar service there, mostly long waits and feeling forgotten. It not a reason to shut the place down, but if the owners are reading they should take heed the opinions of those who are spending money at their establishment.

Speakeasy is upscale, too, wouldn't you say?

This is a great bar, the only one with class in town. glad its expanding.

Scotch Eggs!

Mmmmmmm, Bangers and Mash!

We eat at O'Riley's every week and just love going there! Each time we have an out of town guest come in, we take them there as well. We have clients that come down to see us just so we take them there for the fish tacos. We've been anxiously awaiting the addition and are thrilled about it!! Congratulations!!

oh trust me I try everything, I really don;t even order a beer anywhere I go I just tell the bartender to pick one for me. :)

My wife loves going there to eat or for a drink after a long week. I have to say the difference in service two different patrons get is truly perplexing.

Don't hold yourself to just the Guiness because there a lot of great beers to try there.

I have taken my wife there on 4 or 5 occasions and she refuses to go back because of the delayed service, too bad since I really enjoy the place once I get my guinness.

CallitasIseeit, actually on the sunday morning I am referring to they stood at the opposite end of the bar near the kitchen and talked to one of the other patrons.

Psssssttt...callit & k&g....take the hint......

No kilingril, you didn't say everytime, but eagle1 did.

Fifteen for fifteen.

CallitasIseeit;
READ AGAIN!
I stated "almost everytime".

"Do you raise your hand to say "hey, over here"
"I" the patron, who could have chosen other places to go, have to ask for service from a service provider?
wOw!

It's the tin ceiling that causes the noise problem. Does the addition have a tin ceiling?

I am hardly upset nor wanted to discriminate against the untidy.

I just find it hard to believe that anyone gets a 10 minute wait EVERYTIME they go there, especially when one of 3 or 4 patrons.

Do the bartenders stand and look at you or just ignore eye contact totally? Do they taunt your thirstiness? Do you raise your hand to say "hey, over here" or do you sit at the bar staring at your feet?

Been there one or two times a month since they opened and have never seen it.

I am not trying to upset anyone. Just trying to point out an issue with the poor service.

killngrill, I have been to O'Reilly's at least 15 times and I have had the same experience every time, even early on a Sunday when there was only 2 or 3 others in the bar and 2 people working the bar, it is a bit ridiculous. I really like the place I like the variety of food and beer but the service could use some help. I have to say as well after being pumped by the owner to try the fish tacos which I love when made correctly I was very disappointed in them as far as ingredients, portion size and price.

killngrill....they serve Miller Lite and deep fried cheese curds across the street. Bet you get served there right away!

CallitasIseeit;
Wow; I did not know that they discriminated against people there.
Thanks!

kilingril-I have NEVER had that problem even when packed. Six people and not served for 10 minutes? Did you shower that day?

This is great news; however, I hope they get better bar keepers! Almost everytime I go in there, I have to wait 5-10 mnutes to get served! The last time I sat there for almost ten minutes, with only 5 other patrons in the bar, and was never even approached by the bar keep!! So I left.

Congratulations !

agreed

I agree, nice to go to a bar and have a different variety of food. I myself like the Michael Collins club.

O'Riley's truly does have some of the best food you can find in town. Janesville pub fare has been boiled down to a cheeseburger, but O'Riley's doesn't seem to make any sort of sacrifice on quality. They actually introduce some variety instead of relying on the same ol' deep fried grease ball prepared in "different" ways.

I'm glad to see a local business thriving. They have really great food, but the limited space has kept us away quite often. I'm looking forward to getting down there tomorrow for their Mardi Gras menu. I haven't had comparable food anywhere else around here. Keep up the good work!

This is good news. I really enjoy going to O'Riley's. They have great food and larger variety of beer. The only complaint I had was that it would get very crowded and loud at dinner times. I'm looking forward to the beer garden.
