About This Place

Located in the heart of Kenmore, NY, Mooney's Sports Bar & Grill is the quintessential neighborhood spot where comfort food meets a lively, family-friendly atmosphere. Specializing in classic American bar and grill cuisine with a robust sports bar vibe, Mooney’s invites you to indulge in hearty flavors and generous portions that satisfy any appetite.

The real star of the menu is undoubtedly their outrageously delicious mac and cheese selection. From the creamy, rich Lobster Mac & Cheese loaded with generous chunks of tender lobster, to the inventive Philly Steak Mac and Cheese and the spicy kick of Banana Pepper Mac and Cheese, each dish is a decadent celebration of cheesy goodness. If you’re looking to branch out, their Famous Mac and Cheese and Bacon Cheeseburger Mac and Cheese offer familiar yet elevated takes on comfort classics, each served in massive portions that ensure no one leaves hungry.

Beyond the mac and cheese, Mooney’s boasts an extensive menu filled with mouthwatering offerings. The Moses Style Pork Sandwich, a half-pound of slow-smoked pork piled high with signature fries and coleslaw, earns rave reviews for its smoky depth and perfect barbecue sauce options. Other standout sandwiches include the flavorful Chopped Steak Sandwich, the satisfying Stuffed Pepper Burger with bacon, and the classic Turkey Club. For appetizers, the House Made Deep Fried Pickles and Spinach & Artichoke Dip provide tempting starters that pair beautifully with an ice-cold Moscow Mule or one of Mooney’s expertly mixed cocktails.

Mooney’s is not just about food—it offers a genuine local bar experience, complete with an inviting atmosphere where sports fans, families, and friends can gather and enjoy excellent service. Customers frequently praise the “awesome food” and “excellent service,” noting how the portions are impressively generous and the beer is always “ice cold.” The vibe manages to be lively yet welcoming, striking a perfect balance where spirited conversation and a relaxed family-friendly environment coexist seamlessly.

Whether you’re craving the famous Original Hawg Wings or want to dive into the rich flavors of their Hot Roast Beef Sandwich, Mooney’s Sports Bar & Grill offers something for every palate. Even those cautious about trying mac and cheese varieties will find other delicious options to satisfy their cravings, including fresh-cut fries praised as “the best real fries” around, and appetizers like savory pizza logs that effortlessly steal the spotlight.

What truly sets Mooney’s apart is its commitment to generous portions and bold flavors crafted with care. A visit here feels like a warm embrace from a friend who knows how to cook hearty, satisfying food that keeps you coming back for more. Whether you're a local or just passing through Kenmore, Mooney’s Sports Bar & Grill is a delightful destination to indulge in crave-worthy, comfort-driven fare paired with genuine hospitality.

    Great wings! Mac and cheese good too with lots of choices!!! Drinks and atmosphere just like a local bar but family friendly. I would definitely go back.

    Service was excellent, but I wasn't very fond of the mac 'n cheese. The taste just wasn't the greatest. I had gotten the lobster mac and they do give a great portion of lobster. The pizza logs were a great tasting appetizer though. There are many other things to try on the menu other than the mac.

    Great place to eat. The atmosphere is amazing. The service is great. The Mac and cheese plates are large, very large. No small size to just try it out. A bit pricey but they do give you enough so I guess it’s worth it. Drinks are great. The best real fries and the pulled pork with the gold sauce and coleslaw is the bomb. And chicken fingers bc they also have the best blue cheese.

The sirloin steak sandwich and the Chopped steak was seasoned perferfectly and flavorful.I also had a stuffed pepper burger with bacon that was delicious! Baked onion soup was like it came out of a food magazine! Chicken soup was like moms I even drank from the bowl LOL! Bartender's are personable and attentive to your needs. Highly Recommended!!!

    We had our wedding reception here and Chris & his crew were absolutely amazing! He helped me turn Mooneys into the reception site of my dreams! The food was the best food ever and we’re still getting compliments about it! The wait staff and bartenders were beyond amazing sweet and attentive! Perfect is the word that comes to mind! Thank you!
