Welcome to Beef 'O' Brady's. In 1985, the idea of a neighborhood pub where friends and families could gather to enjoy good food and sports in a comfortable, friendly atmosphere began. Today, there are over 200 "Beef's" popping up in 19 states all over the Southeast and Midwest. Call it the "Luck of the Irish," with one good dream and a lot of hard work.
Birth of Beef 'O' Brady's
It all started from a simple, sound idea: provide guests with an appetizing menu at affordable prices, in a great atmosphere. From the beginning, that's what our customers wanted. From our many years in business, we understand the importance of listening to our customers. With a receptive attitude to what they liked, we've added a sandwich here, eliminated one there. It worked. Business started good and is constantly improving.
Neighborhood communities love our small "local" sandwich shop concept. They love the food, service and attitude. Our sports themed restaurants create a comfortable atmosphere that brings customers back again & again. We are the chain that is not a "chain" with the home town feel and the advantages of a franchise system. The rest as they say, is history. A history of growth and opportunity.
Whether it's a Little League team, a soccer mom with kids, a slow pitched softball group, or just a get together of family and friends to watch a rival game on a big screen T.V., Beef 'O' Brady's sends a solid, basic message out to the public . . . "Every neighborhood should have one."

We currently have over 200 locations all over the Southeast and Midwest and we are rapidly expanding our concept nationwide. The majority of our restaurants are located in strip shopping centers. The restaurant seating capacity is about one hundred customers. The dress code is casual, the attire is modest and in good taste, which reaffirms the "family" atmosphere. We will open over 50 new Beef's in 2006 in our 19 states.
A limited menu of burgers, sandwiches, wraps, salads and appetizers is highlighted by Buffalo-style chicken wings. Over 80 tons of chicken wings are served each week throughout the entire chain. Beverages offered are draft beer, all types of domestic and imported bottled beer, wine and wine coolers, soda, fresh brewed ice tea, and coffee. Satellite dishes provide a wide range of sporting events for patrons. There are large screen TV's complemented by smaller televisions strategically placed for viewing from anywhere in the restaurant. Interactive video games enhance the family appeal to customers. It gives Mom & Dad a chance to catch up together while the kids are playing a video game in our safe and secure game room. We also actively seek community involvement through all types of team sponsorships at all levels; from Pee-Wee to adult rec leagues in all sports.
