    Sweet local sports bar. Games on all over the bar. Bartender was great. They do an open mic night on Mondays and probably have live music other nights of the week too.

    Very nice local place with a diverse patronage of regulars who are all quite friendly. The on staff mixologists are on-the- ball and well versed in all things liquor related; a rare trait in today's bars...( Hi, Allison!) There are many TVs and they were all tuned in to all kinds of sporting events, indicating that someone is paying attention and the sign of a well run sports bar. The lighting is warm and friendly and easy on the eyes...we will certainly be back!

    My first time at this local bar, I was invited by a friend. The bartender was very nice and attentive, prices reasonable. You notice right away that the place has many dart boards and pool tables. I'm not sure if they have food. My friend told me you can order from the restaurant next door and eat it there. I will go back to this little bar; it was a friendly atmosphere. Thank you for making my first time an enjoyable experience.

    Gross. I'm not local/regular of the bar but live in the area. I had a small reunion with some friends at a bar that closed way to early. I'm a very friendly person that use manners Came here and the lady behind the bar was instantly insanely rude right off the bat. It used to be a smoking bar but not it isn't. No signs to suggest it changed. My friend asked for an ash tray and was yelled at "you can't smoke in here. That's way there no ashtrays". Locals were incredibly unwelcoming.

    1st time I walked in to play in a Dart er a middle aged single woman. Immediately a nice man said hey you wanna play. My partner treated me with respect and great pointers. Bartender went out of her way to make me feel like part of the locals 2 nice gals exchanged #s and made me feel so welcome. Really looking forward to going to as many Dart tournaments there . THANKS TO ALL OF PLAY BY PLAY PEOPLE

    My favorite local dive bar! The staff is wonderful. They look out for all their patrons and definitely won't be dealing with any lame behavior so bring only good vibes! Plenty of dart events and open mic nights for those interested. Bonus, there's a liquor store attached if you're taking the party home. Go see Jessica and Eric they're my favorites... just don't tell the others ;-)

    My husband and I met in this bar 4 years ago. I had gone there long before by myself. Alison and her Husband are amazing people who treat you like family no matter what walk of life you are and always have open arms, open seats and cold drinks. Phenomenal hospitality and friendship is found here.

    This place is so much fun. We come on Wednesday for open mike. Dart boards, pool tables, big full bar. And Alison is a terrific waitress. Tucked in a non descript strip center, you must stop in.

    Great local bar! Love the bartenders! Plenty of games to keep you busy while you're enjoying drinks with friends or solo. The food is great too!

  • 4/5 Robbie S. 2 months ago on Google β€’ 113 reviews New
    Went with some friends on a weeknight to play some pool. The place was nearly empty and a bit of a dive, but the pool tables were pretty nice. Cost is $1.50 per game.

    Excellent place to play pool. Went to visit my ex (my girl at the time) and when she was in school, this is where I'd be. Huge place filled with pool tables, always one available and they also have tournaments.

    I love this place, both the liquor store staff and the bar staff are amazing. They call me Old Forester, because that's my go to, but they carry much much more.

    LOVE THIS PLACE. My fiancΓ© and I were in town for a short vacation and wanted to find a sports bar where we could watch the Ravens/Steelers game. When traveling during football season we love to find a place we can spend a few hours at to watch our games. This place did not disappoint. This is a great little dive bar with lots of flair. We are not locals and the minute we walked in everyone was warm and welcoming. The bartender Sandy introduced herself, learned our first names, and remembered them all night. She asked us what teams we were watching and where we would like to sit so she could put the game on the TV closest to us for best viewing. I immediately felt at ease and welcomed. We knew we’d be there for a while so having the pool tables, darts, and even a Super Nintendo was awesome to have while enjoying the game. Food comes from the next door diner through a connecting doorway inside so, there’s no kitchen on site but, the food was amazing. We started with a few cocktails and appetizers as we knew we’d be there for a while. We ordered the Buffalo wings and onion rings. Both were very tasty and well done. The Onion rings had the perfect crunch and the wings were perfectly fried with good sauce. The blue cheese dip was nice and chunky. All the locals and staff treated us as if we were regulars. Everyone was very friendly and there was fun camaraderie back and forth during plays on the game. At the 4th quarter, we ordered a Reuben sandwich to share with fries and a bowl of chili. The chili was awesome. Packed full of meat, great flavor and nice and thick. The Reuben was also excellent. Lots of meat. The perfect sharing option. Prices were very fair. Service was excellent and there’s a liquor store attached to the bar for easy to go cocktail ingredients to take back with you. This place was the highlight of our trip.

    Worst bar ever I Have over 50 friends come here will be asking them all to one star. Bar tender is terrible denied me drinks after one drink. It is her choice but wow sitting quietly at the bar and denied a second drink.

  • 1/5 Sandra J. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered from Grubhub and called the restaurant to clarify something on the order and the rudest guy answered. He yelled at me and just screaming said we have no kitchen and hung up on me. I’ve never been treated that way before. They need to fire that employee. If I could give it zero stars I would.

  • 5/5 Jesse B. 1 year ago on Google
    This is my go to local bar. The staff and owners are amazing also everyone that visits. They have several games including but not limited to steel and soft tip dart boards. Poker tournaments on Thursdays. shuffle board, 3 pool tables, golf and bowling arcade games and plenty of screens to watch you favorite sports. There prices are also great and there is an amazing restraunt next door that you can order from the bar and have served to you. A liquor store connected as well. Great place and great people.

  • 5/5 Scott G. 2 years ago on Google
    The best wings in Pompano Beach. I have had plenty of others that are good but as the inventor of the chicken wing diet I can tell you these are the best! *the basket of wings in the picture is half eaten.

  • 5/5 Laurie K. 2 years ago on Google
    $11 hamburgers in an eclectic bar... very good burgers, we had slaw and tater tots for sides. Mellow rock as background music was an added plus. Smoke free.

  • 5/5 Biz P. 2 years ago on Google
    We found this great locals establishment by accident. Fantastic staff, customers and cocktails. If we're ever back in the area we will be dropping in for a few drinks.

  • 5/5 Jean M. 1 year ago on Google
    Have been going to this place for years. Still a great local watering hole with plenty of screens for a great variety of sports to watch. But no more smoking inside since the early stages of COVID in 2020. Bartenders and clientele are good people.

  • 4/5 Maressa K. 2 months ago on Google β€’ 2 reviews New
    I came here about a year and an half ago from Australia, with my now husband. At the time we were dating & this is the first place he brought me to. bartenders were awesome, customer service was great. Accept for this one lady who was so rude. An older woman who worked the day shift. Absolutely rude. Did not communicate properly. Asked her a question she completely ignored my question & my husband. Made us feel uncomfortable. & spoke so rudely!! Either than that. This bar is awesome. Food is great, drinks are affordable & the staff is friendly! We’ll be back again later on in the year.
