Keenan’s is one of my favorite places to visit in North Wildwood.!!! I was there as recently as last night. They have a nice crowd even during the day and always have a great atmosphere. The people are very welcoming and friendly with the customers The food is really good!The service is amazing. It gets very busy in the bar and the bartenders are always right there to get your next drink. I love the fact that you can sit inside or outside. No matter where you sit. They have a band outside and inside. Not only do they have a band, they have some of the best bands in whole in the island.I highly recommend Keenan’s as a place for you to go and have a great time!you won’t be disappointed. 🍻🥂🍺🧉🎼🎤🎸 🥁🎷🎹
If you go here, keep an eye on your credit card statements. Was here on Saturday, and bought two miller lites and the bill came to $12.50. I tipped $1 per drink and this morning the charge was settled for $16.50 instead of $14.50. The bartender was probably doing this all night hoping that no one would notice the small amounts. Probably won’t be returning. There’s many other bars at the jersey shore that are way better and don’t overcharge your authorized amount.
We go to see bands. Soul Cruisers, Juliano Brothers just to name a few. The food is not so good in my opinion. Few times flat bread crust was burnt and the taste was ruined because if it. Recommend eating elsewhere. The atmosphere is great and the staff are great. Good venue for bands. Bartenders are very friendly. Anytime I am the designated driver they give me Ginger ale at no charge. They respect that someone is responsible.
Always a fun time, but.... the majority of the staff are always completely miserable. The kids that check IDs always have major tough guy attitudes, the staff walking around will plow through you and grunt as they are walking by, and half of the bartenders look like they want to murder the customers. I get it... its mostly a wild younger crowd. But if you hate your job that much find another.
We paid 70.00 to see the Spinners. Doors opened at 6:00. Band didn’t start til 8:40. Ended at 10:00. Acoustics were awful. Huge disappointment. We felt scammed. Do not buy a tix for their shows.
They didn’t let my friend even though she had a Canadian drivers license and a picture of her passport…. If nyc lets people into bars with a foreign license seems like it should be good enough for other places
I was there for fallen heroes motorcycle run I dont know whos fault it was but they ran out of food and had to substitute other food in his place again I dont know if the organizers called them with a final count once the ride started or they just werent prepared for the amount of people last years it seemed to be more organized of course I was closer up in the line of the motorcycle so I got my food pretty early where this time I was near the back and was one of the last ones to get food. Alcohol was extra but soda was included but when you went up to get a soda you were kind of ignored for the paying customers I was standing at the bar for a good 10 minutes while one of the bartenders ignored me but as soon as a gentleman next to me ordered a beer he was giving it right away I finally said hey can I get a soda and he said be with you in a few I just gave up dont know if Ill do the ride next year
What a good time. We were here for Preston and Steves day off at the shore. Opened at 6:30. Great staff, lots of fun. Cant wait to return.
The dj here on Saturday was trash. Played full songs. Included slow songs. Had no feel of the room and couldn’t keep a vibe going if his life depended on it.
Typical Wildwood bar. Service was decent but drinks were weak. Alot of drunken children. Gilligan band was terrific, which is why we were there.
Love going here but get a grip on your pricing… I get a drink at the front bar and pay $5… go to the back bar and pay $9 for the same thing… then $7 the next time… pick a damn price and have all your bartenders on the same page.
Its a vibe! They have live music and 2 djs in different spots, so whatever youre feeling, country, pop, or hip hop, they got you covered! Definitely recommend!!
We went during the day to watch Soccer and the bartender was awesome! We had a good time
So we ate at the Neighborhood Grille, which is apart of the Keenan’s complex. First impression, I loved the decor and vibe. It was packed for an event, so it was really hard to hear because the the space was overwhelmed by the amount of talking. The tableware was trendy. We went for cocktails and dinner.First up, cocktails. The Blood Orange Palmer was out of this world. We also ordered Long Island Iced Teas and they were tight. I’ve learned that it’s best to order off the signature cocktail list because those the bartender can make well…everything else, not great.The food. Some people at the table had the Mahi Mahi Tacos, which they seemed to enjoy after the initial shock of only receiving two for 15 dollars. There was a lot of fish…still felt a little high because it didn’t come with a side. The burger was way under seasoned. It tasted lack luster and was incredibly greasy. The smoked Gouda was the highlight on the burger. The bacon was a nice addition, but it needed more garlic aioli. The fries were fries. We also ordered the short rib nachos, Buffalo shrimp toast, and the Shrimp Scampi flatbread. Let me break it down. The nachos came with a generous amount of short ribs, but they had NO FLAVOR. Skip them. The Buffalo shrimp toast tasted like shrimp drowned it Franks Hot Sauce…like mouth burning hot and not it a good way. The bread was soggy because the amount of hot sauce was entirely overwhelming. The Shrimp scampi flatbread was pretty delicious! I was expecting it to be oily, but it wasn’t. The flatbread had a nice snap to it.The waitress was awesome. Very attentive and made okay recommendations, she hit it out of the park for the cocktail. If you’re looking for familiar food this is a good place to go, but it’s not going to deliver something you have never had before.
The place had high vibrations! It was a great time with good music, nonstop dancing, and true party people!
The inside bar in the off-season is great. The bartender (Danny) was very friendly and quick to refill our drinks.FYI we went before the bevy of young people arrived. If you are older like us, you probably will want to leave by 8:00 or so on the weekend, unless you like hanging around with 20-somethings.Nothing against 20-somethings. Their energy levels are just too high for old farts like us ;-).
Wish I could give it lower, they didn’t let my friend in who was 22 years old, but can let a bunch of people who are underage in. Hope they lose their license again!
Warning...Do not use your credit cards here! Great place to hang and to go to... however...EVERYONE in our group that used their credit cards were charged extra small, random amounts to our credit card accounts after we closed out. I always tip in cash because generally many servers and bartenders prefer it, so I closed out my bill of $38.50, wrote cash in the tip line, and handed the bartender a $7.00 tip ( a $5 bill and 2 singles to be exact). A $46.50 charge hit my acct ($8.00) more that the $38.50 I signed off on.I would have never noticed because I never really pay attention to small purchase amounts like that but my son called me because he was charged, $5 more, & my daughter noted she was charged $10 extra for her round, and my husband was charged $10 extra for his round.These were NOT fees for using a credit card, and these were NOT for tips! Our family is very big on tipping and taking care of our servers...plus these amounts were so random, they wouldnt even make sense in any scenario. I called my cousins afterward, and told them to check their cards, and it happened to them too! They said they would have also never noticed if I didnt call.Now, I am left to believe that this is a common practice with this bar, and that if they even get away with it 50% of the time, it must increase their revenue considerably, relying on the fact that people wont notice these random small amounts. My son bought a round of 3 beers, and tipped $5.00 on his card for them, and he still got charged an extra $5.00. So, in our group of 6 people, the bar made another $45.Go here and have fun but ONLY USE CASH!
Great bar and venue but very frustrating that each bartender has a different price for the same beer.
The bouncers seem homophobic and they have weird rules for entry, would not recommend
Thought some of the people weren’t even 21 and I’m only 26! Crowds are very violent, there was multiple fights and it felt like the you had to track down a serve for anything and they would have an attitude when you ordered! If you like watching free live fights with no drinks this is your place!
The bouncer wouldn’t let me enter the bar because I was wearing a sleeveless T shirt. Which is a weird rule as it’s a summer at the shore. I’m certain my attire had nothing to do with it while other discriminatory factors did. Will leave it at that.
I ordered a salad, which was good. This place bills itself as an Irish pub, but the menu was mostly Italian. Service was great, though.
Didnt eat there but great place for drinks and entertainment.
The service was excellent. The atmosphere was great. Its a place where you can dance, I havent had the food there but I heard the food was good !!!!Im hoping to return next summer!!! Post from Phoenix Arizona 🌵🌵
This is definitely one of the better spots to hang out. We didnt eat here so I dont know how good the food is but the outside area is a great place to hang out. Its crowded (Irish weekend) but comfortable. It wasnt hard to get a drink even with the crowd. I forget how expensive the drinks were but Im pretty sure the were close to, if not the same as the Inlet (bar) which was way overpriced at $9 a beer. All in all it is a good place to hang out.
Went with a large group (13) to listen to the band. They wouldn’t let my kids in. They are 21 and 23 years old. When I asked why, the bouncer just stared at me and then said “ I can let in who I want to”. This is really bad service. After that I sat outside and watched him let 10 girls in who definitely didn’t look 21. We saw them passing ids to each other. Finally he stopped one of them and their whole group left also. The band playing was Misguided and they are like 18. I’ll never go here again and I will share my experience.
Went 4th of July Monday. Place was packed and it poured. The outside sections have cover, but they leak and when the tarps get full they dump on the unsuspecting drinker underneath. Fun for people watching once we figured it out. Find a spot in the middle section of the middle tent, not sides. 😆Other than that, drinks were good. Lots of staff. Most polite. Didnt eat so cant say about food. We went to Joes Tacos before, and that was yum. Do played everything inside from old school club to current stuff. Dance floor was super slippery bc of it being rainy.No parking. Uber.
We’re hanging out having a good time, dancing inside with our friends, tables were getting empty so I asked one of the bouncers in a jokingly way to hand wrestle, for him i guess I intimidated him because he was small and he wasn’t happy with it. Out of the sudden the same guy comes up to me and says “Lets step outside” i ask him for what ? he says “Because I want to….”. Out of the sudden i have 20 guys grabbing me and kicking me out, ripping my jeans and clothes, left scars everywhere, I didn’t even get the chance to tell ok, and walk out myself.To the small little boy who got hurt, you’re the biggest Pu**y i have ever seen. Be nice and not on a power trip to show me what you can do.
I came to see animal house last night and got a beech water drink. It was way to strong over poored it. It tasted like it had 5 shots in one cup and a splash of whatever ele goes in it. Couldnt enjoy it at all. I didnt see anyone ordering mixed drinks just beer and i know y now. Wont be back. Teach ur bartenders how to mix drink. It was the bald dude btw. People wanna enjoy there drink not get trashed the first cup.
Just a flat out fun spot.nothing but enjoyment here!
Fun place for late nights but my only issue was the playlist 🤣🤣🤣 I was there 9/2/23 and the entire night was every ex retail workers nightmare. The dj mustve compiled every generic pop radio hit he could find. Too much taylor swift not enough wutang clan
Bartenders (Danny in particular) were fantastic throughout the entire night. At about 2:30 AM, one bouncer came over to us without prior indication or warning and said you have to leave to my girlfriend because she looked like she was going to fall asleep. This was abrupt, and inaccurate.
I never, I mean NEVER leave negative reviews. I’ve worked in numerous places where customer service is key, and have certainly had to answer to my share of shortcomings when it comes to providing the guest with the experience they deserve. I get that one individual does not define a whole business, but the service received at this restaurant was unacceptable.Our server appeared to have no desire to be there from the start. When questions were asked about “do you have” or when items were ordered that were out of stock, she responded every time with “we don’t have that.” No “I’m sorry”, no recommendations for similar items, just a “hurry up and order something else” attitude. When a drink was spilled as she was setting it down, there was no apology or ounce of empathy for the person who had beer spilled all over them. It was no ones fault, but the lack of compassion or care was telling.Throughout the night, she seemed irritated and did not provide us with the service I would hope for (especially for the money we spent). Some of our party had to leave before the others, and after we asked to split the check she responded with “well, you should have told me that when you got here.” Despite efforts to explain the large table size with individuals who were continuing to stay for more food/drinks, she continued to respond in a rude manner and blame us, despite never asking us at the beginning how we would like our checks split.I’m not recommending anyone deter from visiting this pub, as it is a fun environment and overall I do think it’s a place where people can enjoy themselves over food and drink. I don’t want any sort of compensation or apology. I just want the staff to treat people with understanding and compassion, which we did not receive tonight. I would also recommend they start seating larger parties (or any party, really) by asking how they would like the checks split, instead of waiting until the table is ready to pay to tell them there’s only one check. It’s a common experience to have groups want to pay separately, so I’m frustrated that no accommodations could be made given we were never asked for our split from the start.Again, the overall vibe was fine, but one server can really add a sour taste to the whole experience. I have a photo of our check and would be happy to share if Keenan’s would like to use it as a teaching experience. Otherwise, as guests-be prepared to make it VERY clear how you want your checks split before sitting down, and hope you get a server who can at least pretend to care.
Went here last night, showed 2 forms of my ID and even filled out a paper to verify my information. Was then told by the bouncer “na I don’t think that’s you” and would not let me enter. I have never had this happen in my life and have been going here for the last few years. Will never be stepping foot in here again.
Nothing on the receipt included they add a 10% tip on on all card, just a single sign behind the bar by the register.Bouncers also pretend to know what a fake id looks like because theyre were actual 15 year olds there even through they spend 15 seconds looking at each id.Also the house dj is kinda garbage but thats preference.
Slowest bartenders out there. 6 bartenders & you will be sitting there for 10+ minutes due to being skipped. I paid $10 to get in ($5 & $5). Bartenders talk trash and then kick you out when you say something to defend yourself. Bartender claiming it’s his bar but collects unemployment in the winter.
Food is really good, service is great and the staff work their butts off to give great service. They always have great entertainment too!
One of our first times at Keenans and thoroughly enjoyed! Met with James, the chef, AND loved his goals for creating a more inclusive menu than just bar food. We sampled a cheese steak ~ that was THE BEST I have ever tasted! Then he brought out a mac and cheese. AGAIN ~ NOT your average!! THE best again. He shared his secret in some of them. I wont share ~ go in and try for yourselves!! Have fun Oct 2022
7/1/23 we went to see soul cruiser after having dinner @ neighbors grill ( awesome food )sat @ table went to the bar get drinks was told we were @ server table okwaited 20 minutes still not served my hubby went and got us drinks @ bar told them were tired of waitingblonde waitress came over to reprimand us for going to bar ..... unacceptabledark hair waitress took care of us the rest of the night and was awesome
I recently came here with some friends and we’re extremely disgusted and disappointed with the food and service. First off, there were bugs in our appetizers and hairs in our drinks. Will not be returning EVER again.
My family went to see sensational soul cruisers the band was outstanding. I was very disappointed with the staff outside because the young man was cocky because we were a 1 min late to get in free saying it’s only 6 dollars. So we asked for the manager he said what’s the point and pointed he’s down there. He acted like it’s not big deal. So the young lady got the manager and he was very nice and let us in for free which he said at a certain point we got to start charging. The food was good and the waitress was very good!
We had a great time here. The just was great and beer was cold. We were visiting Cape May for the weekend where I graduated U.S. Coast Guard basic training 30 years ago. It was great to be back and enjoyed live music. The staff was great and was safe with the social distancing of the customers. If we ever come back this way, well definitely stop. Thanks
Lots of fun sitting outdoors listening to live music in a very casual atmosphere. It was pretty early, so there were families eating dinner and happy hour partiers. The food is what you might expect....pizzas (very good) burgers, etc...lots of fun
So, I can bring a 5 year, 10 year old, and 15 year old to eat dinner and listen to music, but if I show up with my 16year old… we can’t come in. Weirdest rule ever. 16 to 21 are not allowed on premise. How about you rely on yourselves to do your job by carding before giving out alcoholic beverages like every other place on the island, instead of limiting who can come inside. So weird. They must have got into trouble recently. Went to the inlet right down the street. Food was great, service was even better.
Keenans is awesome its a great place to go to meet up with your friends cuz thats where everyone goes for a great timeIf you like to mingle with people this is the place to go. The place is huge plenty of room to move around a lot of places I go to you I would feel like I was in a shoe box not Keenans there is plenty of room to get up and move around. Not to mention all of the bartenders are so friendly and professional theyre so nice theyre right there when you need a drink or anything . And they serve food good food reasonable priceSo if you want to go out and have a good time with no worries great atmosphere I suggest you stop by KeenansThank you to everyone that works at Keenans my friends and I were very impressed and we had a great time we will definitely be going back next time theyre in town.👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I really liked how this bar had so many different areas. It had an outdoor area that had a live band, and an indoor area with a dj and dance floor. I think there was another spot inside if you didnt want to be on the dance floor too. The music inside wasnt the greatest when I went here though. I prefer more house when youre on a dance floor, not Justin Bieber from 2013.
I was here this past summer and these people treated me so so badly. I mean it was wildly unpleasant. I’m surprised they didn’t feel bad for being so awful to me. It really made me lose faith in humanity in general not only that but this one specific bar made me turn away from late night bar/club scenes because it made me realize how late night bar staff consistently treat patrons poorly but really nothing compared to this place. This place was truly spirit crushing.
Food was very good, great entertainment a d waitress was excellent. My only concern is that a couple of waitresses and the bartenders were not wearing masks. We were lucky to have one wearing a mask, otherwise I would have said something to her or just left. Would like to go back again, but just concerned.
Great place. band was awesome, all of the staff especially Danny the bartender was amazing. very inviting and suggestive. the Smash burger was one of the best burgers I have ever had. will definitely be returning
Eh drinks are okay, not the best prices. They have a 19.99 happy hour which is pretty cool. Theres multiple bars that get jammed in peak times. They have food (its not bad) and live music which is cool. Overall its just a beachtown bar that gets big buzz for that reason. Staff isnt overly friendly but not totally rude either.
Lot of room, cold Buds, Jim and Joe were great behind the bar
Only had drinks here but the atmosphere is very alive. Even off season it was fairly crowded.
So much fun and literally every room is an entirely different experience! The outside/inside deck is usually where the bands play and then inside is usually where the DJ & dance party are and then outside bars are perfect for being able to hear the people your with speaking as well as the spot to go to smoke cigs!
The staff made you feel like you were just as important as the locals, that is rare for the area. Danny was the best bartender we have had the pleasure to interact with. The food was awesome, highly recommended the Smash Burger its off the charts with flavor and perfection.
Amazing people! Treated us like family. Kids had a blast at parade and security was helpful in allowing us to find our way.
Been going to Keenan’s for years and this DJ was horrible. Date was 9/2/23 and ruined the night with song selection
Paid a $10 cover charge (after the band was gone)for each person, then we are told there is a $25 minimum per person (after the kitchen is closed.) We wanted to go out to smoke so asked for a hand stamp and they say no we would just need to pay the cover again. The margarita was tequila and salt water. I wouldn’t care about a lousy drink in general but with all the other requirements, no thanks.
Went there for the margarita & taco event. Served outside and had a great time until we went inside. Went inside to use the atms only to be stared down by a group of women. We wondered why, but quickly left. Purchased tickets to buy food from the vendors. Went to go back in to use the restrooms and the bouncers proceeded to tell us we werent allowed back in because we had been rude to their cousins and there was a private party going on inside. I proceeded to explain that we werent rude to them, they were the ones staring at us like we had done something wrong and they should either not allow people in or post a sign explaining that there is a private event happening. The guys were rude, refused to listen to me and got aggressive. One of them pushed me down the stairs saying I was on their private property and to get out. The cops came and a bystander confirmed my side that I was not the aggressor I was simply trying to explain and suggest to avoid the issue again. Cops did nothing. I regret not filing an assault complaint. Keenans YOU DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO PUT YOUR HANDS ON PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE NOT BEING CONFRONTATIONAL OR AGRESSIVE.
Our waitress, Allison, bullied us throughout the entire night. In first interaction with her, she questioned our manners when we asked how we would order drinks. Throughout the night, she grew wearier and more antagonistic as we proceeded. By the end, we settled on a below average tip, she proceeded to question our masculinity and reasoning, and yelled at us to never come back as we left. We spent a lot of money on drinks and truthfully did not feel safe with our waitress. While we enjoyed the bouncers and atmosphere here, our waitress made us truly question our safety throughout the night and did not provide a welcoming and safe atmosphere.
Great experience. When they have both sections open its jumping. Loaded with lot of girls/guys ur pick. Great music live/DJ. If ur looking to party and meet girls. This is ur spot. Or guys if thats what ur into.... everyone was friendly.
Was here and having a great time for Irish fest. Had a few drinks and my husband and I were dancing to the band and having a great time. We’d been stepping out onto the patio every 30 mins or so to get some air and take a peek at what was going on outside. We did this a few times with no issue. The last time, we tried to step out for some air and when we tried to go back in they tried to charge us a cover. What?! We already paid for drinks at your bar for hours. Ridiculous.
Probably a good place for the right person, but I am definitely not the right person for this place.The crowd is Northeast Philly >60 years old.Expensive beers, and fried bar food.Stage with entertainment (big band style when I was there...was very good!)
Stopped in here for a few drinks. Cover band was excellent and played a good variety of songs. Average drink pours and attentive bartenders on a busy night.
I went to see the soul cruisers last night and was very upset when I realized what the bartender was doing. I was at the bar by the stage closer to the bathrooms. At first I was not paying attention because I was listening to the music and talking to my family. After the second time putting up more money I realized he was over charging me for drinks, and I wonder if the drinks were being rung up or the money was going right into the tip jar. The person I was with was only drinking water and he was charging me as if it was a mixed drink. I then got up and moved to another bar and did not put money on the bar , I just paid when I wanted another drink. I think that is a horrible thing to do someone, after all I have to work for my money too. I hope that bartender knows who I am talking about and doesnt do that to someone else. I also would hope the owners will have a talk with all of the employees to explain to them just how wrong this is to do. I am so sad that this happened.
They wouldn’t let my son in. They were rude arogant. He just had his license renewed and I’m CT this give a paper license and then mail the real one. He had to get his done as it was going to expire. We came here for fun and this place would not let them in last night. So they loose 14 days of business from him and his two friends. And me telling everyone I can to stay away as they we’re unbelievably rude and laughed at him. Poor business practice.
Great bar in North wildwood. Drinks can be pricey but whatever. You can get a couple drunk knuckle heads sometimes but staff is pretty good about throwing them out if you let them know. All in all fun time and great music.
Great service(Joe), fab grilled chicken sandwich, and great bucket specials. Fun even though we had to stay in our seats for the band.... but thats not the bars fault.
Went for taco festival . LolPaid extra to get Tim early etc. Early to what .A few food trucks . Seafood taco lady was out of just about all the seafood for seafood tacos wow.Nothing to do to look at . No vendors. Just eat a few tacos and drinkHad tacos at a couple of trucks two out of the 5 were goodThe one was nothing but frozen breaded chicken with Jamaican sauce over it .I was expecting more of custom food I think..One and done .
Great place to hang out with family and friends. Food is very good and atmosphere was excellent. Went for the first time on 8/1. Large area both indoors and outdoors.
Need to hire more bartenders. Waited an hour for a drink before giving up. If youre raking in thousands a night, you can afford more bar tenders. Quit over working your staff and under serving your patrons. Miserable experience
This is the definitive Jersey Shore megabar. Seriously...it spans an entire block and is really 4 or 5 bars in one. Its packed with great looking people all weekend long. The age range is seriously 21-91 and everyone is friendly. Great bands, like the Giuliano Brothers and Amish Outlaws keep this place rocking regularly. If I was younger and without little ones, Id be a regular during the summer!
If you like microwaved frozen food and people from South Philly who think Wildwood is the Carribbean, then this is the place for you! Nustled in the heart of Wildwood where teenage boys think theyre on the tv show Jersey Shore and girls who wear more makeup than Tammy Fay Baker, Keenan’s is your worst nightmare if you enjoy good food, cleanliness and nice people. Just go anywhere else...but then again, if you like Wildwood, then I guess this might be the place for you. Stay there, that way youre not in the nice jersey shore areas that I like to go to.
Saw a great band here over the weekend, The Juliano Brothers. All I can say is Wow. Ive seen them before a while back & they still know how to rock down the house. The entire bar crowd, from young to old were jamming & singing along for the whole 2 hour set. A memorable nite, 1st time at Keenans, would return again to see this band.
RACIST BAR! My friends recently went to this bar and they let everyone in expect for my hispanic friend. He is a hardworking, educated, and respectful human being. The bouncer would not let him in claiming his ID is fake. He went to a nearby police officer who verified that he was indeed of legal age, but the bouncer still refused to let him in. My parents and family have been going to this bar for years, but no longer will be going there and will continue to spread the word that racism will not be tolerated.
Love Keenans! Cant go wrong coming here. Always a good time. Huge open space to hangout, multiple bars and the staff is great. If youre in Wildwood, you have to come here
Drinks were great but was forced to have a waitress at the outdoor picnic tables who after greeting us and getting us a single drink was never seen again so.....
All young kids here. Drinks are overpriced. Most of the staff have bad attitudes.
Keenan is ALWAYS a good time. We especially enjoyed country weekend in North Wildwood with DJ Dave Kim from Marlin DJs ,The Wallace Brothers Band, 40 North and Shot of Southern!!!
Military and my Ukrainian wife along with other soldiers were denied entry because a bouncer said normal IDs only. Guess the American flags on the bar are only for show.
Good spot. Bartenders can be nice or crabby depending on the day. Dont take it to heart though, they work hard here,so tip them well. Theyll respect you after that.
Thoughts you may have when you walk in here on a Friday any time of year: What a silly bunch of mid 50 to mid 60 somethings in here on a Friday night. Does this place smell? Why are they so incoherent?Thoughts you may have when you walk in here on a Saturday in the summer: What a fantastic cesspool of mid 20 to mid 30 somethings gathered in one place at one time. This place definitely smells like puke and cheap liquor.Five stars for Wildwood, NJ!
Good music, good drinks. Well staffed with friendly people.
Most horrific drinks and staff you can ever imagine. Owner is very nice and helpful but his staff is absolutely HORRIBLE. They flat out curse all the time and are very ignorant. Would not go here
What was once 5 stars is down to one! Outside bar smells like raw sewer and trash. We were there for a reunion and as we were leaving I had a glass of water in my hand ..a young bouncer grabbed it out of my hand without asking and threw it in a trash can. Physically grabbed it out of my hand no apology. Rude ignorant and not deserving of my money .
Some soul group was performing on Monday night. Was a great music. Cold beer and decent food. Was very happy to of stopped in.
Food was disappointing. Nachos were served but cheese had never been melted in spots...just the very top. Everything else was dry with bits of shredded cheese sprinkled around. We asked for salsa to help salvage all those dry chips. Not their best effort.
We were the only blacks in the building and the bartender would not wait on us. We literally had to go to the bouncer to get service. However the waitress and everyone else were really nice.
0/7 orders on a table correct. Kudos for over filling during the pandemic and stretching the outdoor liquor license but the service took 2.5 hrs to bring the wrong food.
Keenan’s is my favorite bar in wildwood, always good music and drinks. Bartenders are awesome, love watching the games there
We visited Keenans bur not in the traditional evening out. These folks transformed the place into a haunted house for Halloween and did an amazing job. Thanks for going above and beyond!!
Excellent staff!! My drinks are Always Ice cold!! Love their Bands & Djs too!
Huge bar with outside facilities. Plenty of entertainment and plenty of bar staff. Drink prices are great as I bought for the whole crew all night. They stay open late and that is when the crowds show up.
Upsetting news regarding Keenan’s Bar in North Wildwood. An hispanic Friend of ours was not permitted to enter. Bouncer said he had a fake id. He went to a nearby police officer who verified he was of legal age. The bouncer still refused to let him in and would not give a reason. He is an upstanding, educated, hard working human being. I went to google reviews and there are other instances of racial discrimination. I can’t help but think racism is tolerated at this place of business I once loved.
We went here for lunch. This is definitely more bar than restaurant. Food selection is limited to sandwiches and fried stuff like chicken and French fries. Wood was not that good and they dont serve beer on tap, only bottles.
Polar Plunge deck party, band, dj and acoustic duo. Huge crowd, fun time.
This place is the best St for dancing when visiting NJ. The environment is awesome the music is great. I will definitely come back if Im around this area.
Just another big typical bar. The Dance Floor smells like throw-up. The music was awesome though. Nothing crazy so it was just okay.
Great drinks, friendly crowd and the live music was awesome. Had a great time
They advertised family day, with face painters. We drove one hour with our 14 and 20 year old and attempted to go in at 5 pm. They would let our 14 year old enter but not our 20 year old. I am ok with nonsensical logic because it is a private business, but maybe you should reconsider your advertising staff. Qualify if you promote family day, but wont let 20 year old in.
This place sucked the food is lousy! The staff was very unfriendly! They made me my wife and my friends move while were in the middle of eating! They made us to leave after I spend almost $100 in about a half an hour!
Great place for all ages to drink and dance. Usually 3 bands and or djs going on at once to cater to different age groups. ALWAYS a good time!
Three separate bar areas. Super sushi, excellent roast beef. Parking an issue during BUSY times. Outdoor bar has live entertainment.
Stupid security are so dumb
Very good food, but the reason why we went, we are from out of town was because out good friends from rock band LaCompy was playing! Best from Late Night With Johnny P Show
Always a good time if youre looking to get out and socialize. Im usually there for larger events which they can accommodate very easily
Soul Cruisers every Monday night... Fantastic band and a good older crowd, not a lot of kids just regular folks who like good music.
Do your Uber driver a favor and walk to the stop sign north of the bar. Cops after dark have a stick up there ass about dropping people off or picking them up Infront of the bar.
Its a nice outside bar but they do not have beer on tap. Only can beers.
Had a great time seeing the band Shot Of Southern!
Good prices for drinks! Definitely not the most popular spot in town, so youre not overly crowded. The outdoor area was great!
Tried to stop in for a drink, not ONE employee wearing a mask!!! We did not feel comfortable staying and took our business elsewhere that was following guidelines.
Most disgusting place you will ever visit. Vomit literally everywhere you turn. Hope you didnt wear flip flops.Health department should shut it down. They (Health Dept) need complaints.
BARTENDER VERY PLEASING...NOT MUCH FOOD FIR OUTSIDE...BAR ALL STICKY...REAL STICKY. UGH
Its a bar particularly suited towards an older crowd so take that as you will. Nonetheless I had a good time here but probably wont be back because of that.
Ive only been here for Irish weekend, so its always been crowded.
Hit this bar exclusively everytime Im in wildwood. Its 3 bars in one and the live music slaps
If you want to sit at a table and “sight see” then it is good for you. You can’t walk atound, must sit at a table and order drinks. Corona messed up this experience, sad.
Love Keenans. My friend who plays in a band ,Chicos Vibe plays every Sunday evening during the summer and it great. Love the outdoor bars and everyone is friendly.
The sashimi and ginger are ridiculously fresh. Highly recommend Keenans to anyone for sushi. Strange that an Irish bar serves great sushi but its just that good!
Excellent food and drinks are fabulous on our waitress was unbelievable her name was Talia are you ready very good place
Bouncers are so miserable, sets a terrible tone before you even walk in the door
Best outdoor party/bar venue easily both during the day and for those looking for fun during the late night hours.
Real fun,I had nachos and they were great. The band was great. The Soul Cruisers, a most see.
Huge indoor & outdoor bar with dance floor inside.
The waitresses are fantastic! The bartenders could really use personality upgrades.
Super fun place with a relaxed atmosphere. They have spiked seltzers by Truly at the bar which I absolutely loved!!
Awesome spot for fun, food, drinks and music! AND: The Sensational Soul Cruisers every Monday night All Summer Long!
What a great time we had. Staff was great, Jem and the vibe preformed on stage. They were amazing.
My husband and kids go to reunion for North Catholic every year and have a great time!
The Soul City Cruisers had us dancing all night. Great casidias. We be back!!
I am down for Summer Mummer and it was awesome. Keenans is a great philly vibe bar. Equipped with a frankford and cottman street sign
Great band, Corner Boys, nice outdoor space. Always a fun night out, especially when the weather cooperates!
Great fun, great people and FM is the best band I have heard in a night Club in years.
Fridays so crowded and the best place for dance and grab a couple of drinks.
Great bar with something for everyone! Outdoor seating with live music and indoors they usually have a DJ.
Loved the outside bar, the band Hickstown Road was fantastic. Nachos were good but limited menu
This bar has lots of room. Theres plenty of seating for anyone who needs to sit. The crowd is very mixed too
Great music. Fun times
If you are 21 its a great place. Not so good for middle age people
The bar,host,waiters and bartndenders are all great along with the food and drinks. It attacks a young crowd sometimes.
Awesome Haunted Holloween for trunk or treat. Was very surprised how good it could be and it was scary. Great job!
Totally fun. Nice live band inside and a large, relaxed outdoor deck!
Great Flatbread, awesome staff, friendly atmosphere....definitely stop in if youre in the neighborhood
Good little spot for an ice cold can of beer. Nothing fancy Nice little outdoor bar too
Went here during Irish weekend. Great place to grab a drink. Nice environment. Dim lighting typical Irish pub.
Cards Soar At Shore Reunion. Great time, good good.Problem I found, drinks different prices with all bartenders. Why??)
Except for the fight, it was awesome. Btw, the bouncers are great. Stopped it almost before it started.
Great bar but not cheap trying to make all the money then can in the summertime
Very rude bouncers. I attended a reunion and they forced me to leave bc I had a tank top on, despite the sidewalk flooding in a downpour.
Great Band
Extremely discriminatory, Rude staff, Kicked out my 3 beautiful friends for engaging in private conversation amongst themselves. TERRIBLE STAFF
Great time every time I go here. Monday night with the soul cruisers place was packed but service was still quick and accurate
Didnt get to stay for long . It was quiet while I was there. Food was as good, service was fast. No complaints.
The dj was great. Goodnplace to dance. Drink prices ok.
First time there this summer had a great time lots of people Mummers were playing had a good time with friends
Typical Jersey shore watering hole. Overpriced food and drinks. One saving grace, no cover charge
Me and my family were trying to have a nice dinner and they kicked my cousin out because apparently they don’t allow 16-20 yr olds EVER horrible service too hate this place
Great place to spend a rainy morning. The shrimp and grits were awesome and the bloody Mary was perfect!
We love Kiddie Karaoke! So much fun! And our server was so great!
Service was great but it’s more of a bar for college kids.
Went there for a fundraiser. Good crowd and pleasant experience
Delicious food and awesome music but nowhere to hide from the sun 😎😎, too hot 🌞🌞😠😠
Thé place was very hot no air on just the ceiling fans on thé doors were open just hot air thé thermostat read 87 degrees
Great town bar lots of entertainment very nice people and you can have food
Bouncers are way too aggressive. And in my experience at the North Catholic reuion the bartenders made racial comments towards a friend of mine
Too bad they were closed but had the outside going
Great place to hang with friends. Went for BBQ/Blues festival
Good place to go with a group, pricey beers, LOUD music, obnoxious tourist kids that are having their first beers away from home..
Went fir a high school reunion. The bartenders are all cool but I was very bored.
Great entertainment! Large property. Staff could be a little nicer...
Group of thugs started trouble and got innocent people kicked out. They started a fight outside and the bouncers kind of knew them!!
Bar gets really crowded during summer, has multiple bars inside and outside. Close to others bars so you can bar hop.
Great day at Keenans had lunch reminisce with Sean and Scott good times with Linda Farrell and Kathy Paul
Had a great time great bands great food great drinks and I had the best service
Basic shore bar. My bartender was really sweet but I just cant remember his name.
Great service! Great food! And very accommodating at The Neighborhood Grille
Great food, bartenders knew exactly what I wanted, and the vibes were good
Great bar good band on Monday Soul Cruisers prices are reasonable
Service is slow, but food is good. Great place to see the Soul Crusiers!
Very large bar and dance floor. The beer selection sucks, unless you drink lite beer.
My wife and I finally had a night out away from kids We had such a great time!
Great venue to hear music especially outside. Good food also.
Love going to see the Soul Cruisers with family
Bartenders work so hard here, always packed on the weekend. Bathrooms are completely nasty though.
Love that place.. James the chef and the rest of the staff were awesome.
