    • Q:

      Is this the former location of Dinosaurs night club?

      A:

      No. It's in the bottom level of a new high rise housing development. There are some other restaurants on the same [street] level. To get to Looney's you have to turn into the garage and you'll see it. Parking is free.

      Kyle is the best bartender I have ever had. He is busy yet makes time for his customers. He makes you feel valued when you are at your lowest or highest. The rest of the staff is just as phenomenal-- shoutout monica. Live Laugh Love Looneys

      Awesome spot near the UMD campus. Lots of food options (wings, apps, burgers, quesadillas, cheesesteaks, etc) and even more drink options (classic items and also some fun shots). Tons of TVs so a great place for sports-watching. Service is friendly and attentive (lots of student workers).

      Great bar.

      I was staying at THE HOTEL at UMD and stumbled across Looneys Pub when we were walking the campus for some food spots. Expected this to be a small bar but it is much bigger inside and lots of room at the bar area to sit and order food. I ordered the OC bucket and it is quite good and deadly my partner ordered Guinness which was actually pretty creamy compared to other bars.
      For food we got the hot buffalo wings and chicken tenders with fries. Overall very good bar in the area if you're looking for a quick bite and want to hang around locals and college kids since it's a sports bar. We came back twice in 1 weekend so it's a classic spot with good service! I would sit at the bar to get the most attention from bartenders!

      First time I have been to this one in college park. We were seated fast, and the order was taken. Fast food came out in a timely manner. My burger was good. I only ate half, so it was definitely full filling. The place was nice and friendly, it was cold they had all the ceiling fans on so or made my food fold fast didn't like that. The ladies' restroom felt like an ice box freezer, so that wasn't great either. But overall, we enjoyed the quick bite.

      Regular hot wings.

      $20 for basically a less seasoned Chipotle bowl, with less food than you get just going there instead. The bar is large, but without adequate servers you'll end up waiting longer for everything. Parking situation is inconvenient at best.
      Can't recommend eating the food here.

      This is a "I should've eaten MORE before I came" review for the most part so here we go ... my counterpart wanted to watch his favorite team play so we came here. I made dinner before I left but I know once drinks are involved I'm going to want to nibble too.

      The menu was very enticing and looking at the food that was coming to be delivered, I opted to do the Taster Wings ($1 more for 3 flavors). Here is my order and ratings for each:
      1.Murphy McGee - 4 stars; FLAVORFUL!
      2.Honey Old Bay - 1 star; Lacked old bay seasoning and the honey was at the bottom of the tray
      3.Jerk - 1 star; didn't give me jerk flavor AT ALL!

      My rating for 3 stars is for the Murphy McGee wings alone!

      My counterpart and I looked at each other and said "we were better off not ordering anything at all" and I strongly agreed. I mean it's wings and the flavor component lacked ... that's crazy! Oh and the french fries ... horrible and I'm a french fry lover!

      Otherwise, the drinks and atmosphere was on point. I wish my server would have notified us at the beginning of service that if you pay by cash gratuity WILL NOT BE INCLUDED but if you pay with a card, gratuity is AUTOMATICALLY INCLUDED. Where is the signage? Not to mention Yelp offers 10% off for checking in on the app and my server and manager knew nothing about it. What a shame.

      I will give them another try even if it's for beer, booze, and sports!

      We came to Looney's while at College Park for a soccer tournament. Looney's sits right off of campus on the main road through College Park. The bar area is really nice and spacious, with lots of different sized TV's to catch a game. We had pork nachos to start. My wife had a shrimp fajita wrap, I had the rockfish tacos, my son had buffalo wings, and the other two members of our group had chicken quesadillas. Everything was pretty good and our server was awesome.

      Looney's is a College Park staple for the area. I have gone ever since I was in college... but now it's mainly homecoming or a spontaneous decision. Their happy hour features beers, rails, orange crushes (which are admittedly too sweet for me now), and various food items. I appreciate how an Irish pub adds some jerk items on their menu -- it's nothing close to the quality of jerk you get at authentic Caribbean restaurants, but I respect it because it doesn't taste bad at all.

      Another reason I don't go here as much is because the college kids roll in deep -- it's on the base of The View, so you see a lot of them even in the summertime. So I have to roll with my own crew haha, but it's fine regardless. I can count the times I have gone the place is quiet... there are always a lot of people there! The perk is that there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, so the crowds are manageable. With events like trivia and karaoke, you can't blame them for being busy!

      Some of my favorite food items are the honey old bay wings, the chicken cheesesteak, and sweet potato fries -- yum! If you've never been, I recommend swinging by!

      This is a really big space with a lot of TVs. It's a great place to watch a game. Great atmosphere.
      Food was ok.
      Parking may be an issue. So give yourself plenty of time to find a space.
