Okeefe's Tavern

O’Keefe’s feels like what would be an authentic Irish Pub. Good vibes and cozy atmosphere that made you want to stay longer than necessarily. My Patty Melt was okay but definitely not the best I have ever had. My husband really enjoyed the fish and chips. I’d give it another go and probably order something different.

I’ve always said I wanted to check out O’Keefe’s Tavern for years and tonight was the night I finally ended up dining there. The inside of the restaurant is very nice to see with all the Irish themed decor, woodwork, lighting and festive atmosphere all together!!! We had a large party and they made sure we were able to get seated which was great!!! Our server, Joseph was polite and made sure we had everything we needed while we were there. Food came out in good time and all of it looked amazing!!! I wish I could’ve took pictures of everything that was on the table!! Food was hot and absolutely delicious!!! We were full, but heard about their award winning homemade bread pudding and had to get some to go!! Wound up eating that at home and that too absolutely melted in your mouth!!! At the end of our dining experience, the manager, Robbie, stopped by our table and checked on us. We conversed with him about their events and commented on how great our experience was as well!! Keep up the great job with the food, service & atmosphere!!! We are looking forward to our next visit back!!!

Let me preface my review by saying my photo isn't true to the presentation on the plate, I had already moved things around. That being said I had two Guinness then ordered the fish and chips, that came with a side of coleslaw. I closed out my time by ordering a snakebite. Amanda and Allison were great bartenders! They were attentive even tho the bar was full, I never had an empty glass and my food arrived piping hot! I would go there again if ever I was in the area again. This is also a great place to go if you happen to be visiting the Morton Plant Hospital.

This place is a hidden gem. The service was top notch. The food was incredible. My husband said it was the best reuben he has ever had. It was juicy and flavorful. The Philly cheese steak was great and the sirloin steak was cooked just as asked. The glaze for it was so sweet and tasty. The dessert death by chocolate was a hit as well. Our family loved all the food.

This restaurant is a long-standing icon in the downtown Clearwater and surrounding community. My wife and her family have been coming here for many years. The tradition of serving a wide range of dishes and specializing in authentic Irish dishes has been their signature that the locals and visitors have cherished so dearly for so many years. It is conveniently located on the primary downtown main traffic road, Fort Harrison Avenue, that travels through the center of downtown. They have indoor and outdoor seating. They have a great bar too. The menu has something for everyone. The Irish dishes they offer include Sheperd's Pie, Bangers and Mash and Fish and Chips. The pricing is reasonable and the portions are generous. The food is fresh, hot and very delicious. My server, Jordan was friendly, polite and very helpful. He checked on me throughout my meal. He brought my cocktail out right away. It was a Spicy Bloody Mary and it was amazing! It had a great flavor and the perfect amount of spice. The food came to my table promptly and it was piping hot. The order was correct and he added to my order without hesitation. The Reuben Sandwich I ordered was outstanding. It is the best Reuben Sandwich served in the Tampa Bay Area! It is my favorite part of coming here. The fries were hot, crispy and very tasty. The Coleslaw was a nice compliment to my sandwich. The Manager, Kelly ("The Boss!") was very nice. She stated that the restaurant will be relocating approximately in January and staying in the area close by. The City of Clearwater officials are being very supportive in assisting them with relocating close by where they are located now. She said they would like to complete the relocation process within a nine month period. She also stated that they will be keeping everyone updated on their Facebook page so look there for updated information. I would encourage everyone to patronize this place in support of all the challenges they are going to face in the upcoming foreseeable future. The family owners are very good people and they take great care of their amazing staff. I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant to everyone. 6 Stars
