good food, annoying "scene"

went here for the first time on a friday night for a company party in stanley's private basement. the food was good- fried chicken, mashed potatoes, etc. leaving around 10pm, however, was horrifying. the front bar area (which we had to walk through to go outside) was packed, wall-to-wall with screaming drunk frat boys and girls. it was a huge turn-off for the restaurant, i think if i ever came back it would be during the morning but even still i'm scared. i'd rather eat elsewhere than overhear "chug contests" at the table next to me. (fyi i'm 22, not old and square)

Great Food... Slow Service... But Really Great Food

I really enjoyed my experience at Stanley's, I came in hungry and left full. The portions were great and the prices were right. I came in on a business trip to Chicago, and a group of my business partners decided to try it out for lunch. I ordered the Southern Fried Chicken, the Famous Mashed Potatoes, and the very cheesy Macaroni and Cheese. This meal was great, prior to my lunch entree, I requested the house salad with ranch dressing, the salad was prepared with some of the freshest vegetables available, and this was evident as I devoured my pre meal salad.

My only complaint about Stanley's during lunch was that we waited a long time before our order was taken (nearly 30 minutes before even being asked our lunch orders). This was something that I read about from another person who wrote a review on the place, and I experienced the same thing during our lunch. When our orders were taken, the food did not take very long to come out and the quality of the food more than makes up for the wait that we had to endure for receiving service. My advice for Stanley's in order to aid in providing speedier service would be to use the Hostess, (Who was at the time we were there a Miami of Ohio student), as a server because not many people were coming in and she was sitting the entire time that we were there waiting. The Hostess is being paid nearly the same amount as the waitress and the busser, and I feel that her time could be better spent as a server/ hostess. I was very impressed with the busser, he was a young Hispanic male who was working his tail off, he brought out our water, and food, we had more interaction with him that our waitress.

Stanley's is a great atmosphere, great sports bar facility and there is a very adaptable restaurant configuration in that you can have either a casual dining experience or a sports bar experience all under one roof.

CitySearch helped me make a great find...

Thanks Guys. Stanley's an over all A+ experience!!!

Great Neighborhood Bar

If you like casual, neighborhood bar scenes this place is perfect. It's really unpretensious and ridiculously fun. The bartenders are absolute characters and the servers are always entertaining. It's hard to find a bar that you can hang out at multiple times a week and actually get to know and enjoy the people who work there. On occasion I've stopped in by myself and had a great time just sitting at the bar, hanging out and talking to people. Sunday brunch is the best and If you haven't been there on a sunday night for live karaoke you're missing out, sometimes it's crowded but so much fun.

A lifesaver on a Sunday morning

The only bad thing I can say about this place is the crowd is always there.

The masses have spoken as this place will fill you up when you are suffering from the night before

Best Sunday Brunch!!

I've been going to Stanley's for over 10 years now and their Sunday morning brunch is second to none! There is something for everyone.....form fried chicken to fruit! Everything is fresh and tastes great and they never seem to run out of food no matter how packed the place gets.
