    I stopped in this place while driving through this town. My husband ordered an IPA and I went light with a summer shandy (middle of summer). Both beers were warm. The waitress was very polite and said they would look onto it. I thought maybe it was a fluke for one of the beers, but was surprised that they both were luke warm, gross. We started off with fried pickles and armadillo eggs, both were very tasty! I then ordered the dry rubbed hot wings, but I really wanted a sampling of the different flavored wings. I ended up ordering a side of buffalo, ranch, and a side of sweet chili to dip my wings in to try. ALL of them were amazing! I love how crispy the wings are here, by far the best I've had! There was so much food! My daughter ordered mac and cheese and she loved hers as well. The only reason I gave four stars was because of the warm beer. We definitely wanted to stay for a little bit and have another drink if they would have been even slightly cold. We are hoping that was a fluke, and will definitely be coming back! 😊

    Visiting from out of town and wanted a place to watch the Nuggets game. We stopped in and Dani(sp?) immediately put it on for us! He was super friendly and really went above and beyond for our group. The customer service was great and our appetizers were delicious! Highly recommend and will definitely go back next time we are in town.

    2023: Flanagan's is our favorite restaurant in town. It can be busy on Friday nights and weekends, it can get loud outside on the patio, but it's always been worth it to us. The food is consistantly excellent and we carry out often. I was disappointed during covid when masks weren't worn, but in Highland a lot of people thought we were in an untouchable bubble or that it wasn't a big deal. 2018: ate there recently and the food was even better than I remembered! They have a large menu and their spinach dip was some of the best I've had! The patio and outside stage have made this great restaurant/bar even better!

    Food has gotten so MUCH better than it was a few years ago. Now that it's so much better, we eat there or take out at least 2x a week!

    First I would like to say, I LOVE their food, especially their wings. But, I used to be able to call and order my food, 20 minutes later pick it up, & it was ready. It was quick, convenient, easy, and delicious. The last 7 times we have gone though; let me share what has happened the last 7 times though. First of all, they have the online ordering on their website. One night, I placed our order on the app and paid on the app. 20 minutes later, I went to pick up our food like usual. They said they were busy so they turned the app off, but I could place my order there. I did and it was a 45 minute wait for all fried food (2 orders of wings & mozzarella sticks). After that incident, I went back to calling, but, every time I have called for the last SIX times, my call either doesn’t go through, or they put me on hold and forget that I am on the phone. I have mentioned this issue to them before, I told them that I tried to call, but kept getting the busy signal and they laughed when they realized they have had the phone off the line all evening (probably forgot they had someone on hold). The last 4 times I have gone, the wait has been over an hour for our same order. Last night, they were not full. Maybe half full and had about 6 waitresses. Our waitress came to our table twice. Once to get our order and once to give us our food. There was a lot of standing around being done by the waitresses, mixing up their own drinks, etc. Maybe they’re short staffed in the kitchen? If they didn’t offer online ordering or pickup, we would probably still go there for dinner, but when we plan on calling ahead and picking up a meal, we expect the order to actually be taken. If they don’t have enough staff to offer these services, then they need to take these services off of their website for the time being. EL FLANAGANS DOES NOT OFFER ONLINE ORDERING OR PICKUP- if you want to do these, expect your order to not go through or an hour+ wait.

    Had lunch there on a Monday around 1 and not busy at all. Service was fast and all the food was really good. Lot of beer choices would definitely go back.

    Thought the food was a little greasey. Girlfriend wasn't impressed with her food either. Had nice atmosphere and was clean. Prices were decent.

    The music is great and we're lucky that they're playing outside. We had dinner the 'Pig Wings' and Fry's smothered in Sweet Baby Ray's. Recommend highly.
