O’Malley’s Tavern Auburn Hills

Decent beer selection, but can take a while to get served. Order food with your first drink otherwise you can be waiting a while!
The bbq is decent and for the money you can’t complain but over all this in not somewhere I would seek out — i ate here as it was part of the hotel and I had limited time (which was reduced further by the waiting).
Helpful staff.

We have lived down the street from O’Malley’s for 9 years now and yesterday was our first visit. I was looking for somewhere new for dinner and wondered why we hadn’t gone there before… menu looked varied and tasty… décor looked pretty cool from the pictures I found online, so we plowed through the University bridge construction for dinner. We were welcomed quickly (no other customers at 4:15) and told we could sit anywhere. They had a good craft beer list on tap as well as many bottled beers and wine. We ordered a Spinach Artichoke dip appetizer, and my wife got the french dip while I ordered the farmhouse panini.
Seemed to be about 15 minutes and still no Spinach and artichoke dip. There were more diners and people sitting at the bar by this point, but we had to have been the first orders into the kitchen. Waitstaff can do a lot to diffuse a wait time like that by simply recognizing that it is taking too long and saying «it should be out soon», or «they are working on it» or something. Our 2 waiters just kept walking by. Anyway, it eventually arrived at our table… nice presentation with multi colored tortilla chips. Unfortunately, it lacked seasoning. I’d give it a 7, only saved by the salty chips.
Soon after, our sandwiches arrived. He dropped those and promptly grabbed the plate of tortilla chips and whisked that away… um…maybe we still wanted to eat those? Guess not. To my surprise, my panini wasn’t a pressed sandwich and had not been grilled. I always that was the definition of a panini, but
says a panini is: «a traditional, small Italian sandwich filled with meat, cheese, grilled vegetables, etc., and usually toasted.» My bad, Chef. Overall, it was a good portion and the taste was decent… again, a 7. My wife wasn’t much of a fan of her French dip. She said it seemed like the meat was simply deli roast beef and nothing special. She said the store bought bun wasn’t big enough to hold the meat and cheese. She gave it a 5. Ouch.
I would say we’ll give O’Malleys another try because it is so close to our house and I really want to like the place. Please don’t disappoint me again O’Malley! :-)

Just had my rehearsal dinner here. Everything went perfect. Food was perfect. I got the ribs and they melted off the bone. My fiancé got the herb chicken. Chicken was moist and seasoned well. Rice and veggies were just as good. Food was quick and hot.
As for service the 2 servers were wonderful and organized. They knew what each person had and handle it like true professionals.
I would recommend this place to any one that enjoy great service with great food. Oh yea there beer selection is Michigan crafts which you can never go wrong with.

My wife and I needed a pub food stop before a movie and a friend recommended this place. I have NEVER been more impressed with the burger. For the price, I was blown away, but the fact that they cooked to order and hit medium rare perfectly was simply lovely. That, combined with the fact that they had a decent craft brew selection has had both my wife and I talking about and planning our next stop here.

Stopped in for lunch on a Friday with my wife and we both started with a cup of Chili as cold outside. Problem was Chili was also cold. Waitress joked about it and took it back. Still cold! She then joked third times a charm! When she brought it back a third time with dirty spoons on side I asked how she knew who’s was who’s? She said well who ate more out of cup? How nasty– needless to say we left and went somewhere else for lunch.

I have eat at this restaurant twice. The first time was with a group for colleagues. I ordered a Chicken Tortilla Soup with a Salad. Both were delicious, except the Salad portion was slightly smaller than I expected for a meal. My second time was by myself and I ordered a Pea Soup with a Chicken Melt. I’ve had better Pea Soup but the Chicken Melt was awesome. You will have to ask for a side of Mayo or some sort of dressing, if you like condiments.
Both of my visits are poor service. My first time there with the group had a waiter who didn’t attend us unless she was taking orders, dropping and picking up dishes, and dropping the check. I only had my glass refilled once and I had to wait a long time for it to be refilled.
My second visit was a slower one. I sat at the bar during a time when they seemed steady but had enough waiters for their lunch hour. My bartender took too long to acknowledge I was at her bar and take my drink order. My order of a soup came after she had already delivered my melt and fries. I had to reminder her what it was. After I was finished and she dropped off the check, I sat for 15 minutes with the bill and credit card in my hand. She had walked by me a couple times and still never cashed me out. Another server realized how long I’ve been sitting waiting to pay my bill and took care of it for me.
The food is great but the service is poor. If you’re on a time constraint, you will have to make sure they understand or you’re never going to get out in time. I’m considering of going a third time before I make my final decision about this restaurant.

Really good. Generally I don’t eat at the hotel but it was convenient and we we pleasantly surprised. We had a red Zinfandel that was very nice and a ribeye steak that was nicely cooked and very tasty.
The service was fast and efficient. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.
Christina was a great waitress and quite friendly.

Went here after a concert looking for a bar. This is more restaurant then pub. Was upset that I was told they were out of small sz pizzas, but we got the medium & it was really good. Just way to big for us girls.

Good atmosphere but that’s about it. I stayed at the Crowne Plaza above this restaurant and ate here four times. The breakfast is horrible unless you like raw greasy bacon, green bananas and water flavored scrambled eggs. The personal pan pizzas I did like. The price is fair on those. The next night my chicken was undercooked. Still had pink-​red cold spots in it. I told my waitress and she said, «sorry, it must have been a real fatty piece.» A few nights later, (tonight) I had the crab cakes. These are awesome if you hate crab because I never tasted any in it. The rice beside the crab cakes was cold and the steamed vegetables would be great if you’ve forgotten your chewing gum. It came with garlic bread that was nice, hot and almost good. Skip this place unless you’re sure you want pizza. Beer is kinda high here but I’m from outta state. It may be normal to pay $ 4.40 for one beer.

Fairly typical ‘restaurant’ attached to a hotel (Crown Plaza). Happy hour runs from 4:00 — 6:30. Decent local beers on tap (Bell’s) and standard pub fare.
Chili (with chips) was unimpressive as it had less flavor than Wendy’s chili and the chips were slightly stale. The O’Pizza was good. Not phenomenal, but better than expected.
Overall, a decent place. When faced with McDonalds, Taco Bell, and KFC, this is a worthy alternative. Just come during happy hour or your wallet will hurt (hotel pricing).
