We've been to Wilbert's Food and Music several times now and each time We've had a blast. The drinks are reasonably priced and it's a very cool place to hang with your friends. The staff is very friendly as well! My girlfriends and I really enjoy hearing local music and This is also great place to do so.
It's great to have another place supporting local musicians. You should look into getting Master t.c.& The Visitors to play. They are a local band we see a lot they are amazing. One of the coolest restaurant bars in Cleveland. The food is great, the music is great any night, and the owner is great.

I was only in this bar for a short time for a drink and a shot before a sporting event, but I liked what I saw quite a bit. The bar is pretty big and plenty of space inside so even though it was crowded, it wasn't overly packed. The beer and shot I had were both good, prepared/poured correctly. I would definitely want to check this space out again when I have more time, as the atmosphere was fun and energetic and I enjoyed my time there.

There is NO place better to go to before the Indians games. 3 dollar tall boys, 5 dollar crafts, and good music!
But let me tell you the best part of it all..... The loaded nachos. I already know that I'll be craving them at a later date. I've had a lot of nachos in my day. These are, hands down, the best I've ever had. Topped with tons of REAL cheese and baked in the oven. Then loads of pulled pork, BBQ sauce, tomatoes, spicy beans, and minced jalapeno. Served with homemade salsa and sour cream on the side, each bite had that "umami" flavor I gravitate towards.

I've already reviewed Wilbert's and it remains and great place for pre-game events but on this visit we went for dinner before a show. There was nothing going on at the Q so parking in back off Bolivar was free and easy. My wife was on crutches and the ramp was salted which was nice to see. The staff were extremely nice and really went out of their way to make us happy. You can tell they care about what comes out of the kitchen. I had a half slab of ribs with hand cut fries and a beautiful salad with balsamic for $10. My wife had chicken fingers and chips. Everything is made in house

Really enjoyed our visit to Cleveland for a baseball game and part of that experience was stopping at Wilberts for a pre game meal. That night they offered a rack of ribs, fries, and dinner salad for $9.99. Delicious and affordable. Loved the atmosphere and that the place is family owned and operated. Very well worth looking for and don't be afraid to open the sticker covered front door. A good time and good food is on the other side of it.

Big shout out to the random person on Twitter who told me this was where to go before an Indians game. There's so much happening before the game and so many people and we thought they might have steered us wrong and that there was no way we'd get in, but though it was busy, we walked in and found a table right away.
On game nights, there's a $9.99 rib deal that honestly blew me away. The serving was huge. The ribs were some of the best I've ever had and literally fell off the bone - the bones pulled right out and I was eating the meat with my fingers and it was AMAZING. The

I wish there were a way to give 1/2 stars. This place wasn't quite a 3 but definitely not a 4. The music on this particular night was AWFUL, but the drinks were good and the food was solid. The owner came over and sat with us for a while (probably because we had 4 pretty girls at our table) and he was nice enough. I'm guessing this place is amazing depending on what night you go. I'd give it another shot, but the music is very important and on this particular night the band was laughably bad. Nothing worse than another horrible rendition of "Superstition." I wonder

Best place EVER! After an amazing tribe win of 22 straight I wanted to check out Wilberts which Is right next to Thirsty Parrot! Live band, full bar, and a great food menu was clutch. I ordered the grouper sandwich with fries (only $1 extra instead of chips) and my friend got the quesadilla. Both were so delicious! The grouper was so flavorful and cooked just right.
Hands down my new fave tribe spot before & after games. Did I mention $5 stoli vodkas?! 5 STARS!

Creme Brulee like scrambled eggs,
A Blonde brownie swimming in ice cream and sugar,
A night at Wilbert's.
In Cleveland for work, I made desserts my mission. Suffice to say, Wilbert's was not the place. Perhaps they have better real food -- the photos of ribs and fries that others have posted are things of beauty.
The service was odd, and a little uncomfortable. There were few people there, but hey it was a Tuesday night, what could we rightly expect?
I probably won't return. But I could see how if you lived in Cleveland, this might be your home base bar. It was tricky to find

My boyfriend and I randomly stumbled upon Wilbert's while bar hopping before a Cavs game and I'm pretty sure it's Cleveland's best kept secret (okay, so I've only ever been to Cleveland once to make that claim... get off my back).
The live music and TVs are what brought us in, but the prices are what got us to stay. Two Jager Bombs for $6? Two domestic beers for $5? You can't beat that! Plus, it was super close to The Q, but yet not at all crowded with fans. I'd definitely go back!

I used yelp to search for live music and Wilberts popped up immediately. The Friday we went was an open mike night for local talent - all rap. I'm a fan of rap (I'm pretty sure XM created their Backspin channel just for me) but this particular show was not my jam.
Difficult to find. We entered from Huron and then needed to walk all the way through the building to the back - no signage at all. Interior of Wilberts is very dark. The table we sat at was dirty and sticky, even after it was cleaned.
Relatively empty interior, nothing like the pictures. People were drinking but I did

This is my favorite spot to go to before Indians games. They've got a slew of specials on game days and it can get you prepared for the sobering prices you'll see at the stadium. You can find some domestic cans and bottles for $2, while bombs will cost you $3. Check this place out with friends and you can all easily have a solid buzz for less than $20 a piece.
The food here is pretty good too if you find yourself needing a snack before the game. I had a brisket sandwich which I really liked. It's definitely worth the small upcharge to get fries instead of chips. They have a bunch
