This is our go-to place for some group decompression. The patio has great seating space and good atmosphere. Wait staff and bartenders are friendly and attentive. You might not think of it as the place for pizza but the pizzas are bomb and I highly recommend it!

Good to watch games

This is a nice place. Good atmosphere of sports. Outside area is neat and quiet even with sport games going on. I really like it. It is not the teenager clubs with load music.

More than that, the food is great. Actually excellent compair with other beer brew bars.

What stops me coming back is the service. The waitress for our table is raw. Very less experience. Disappears now and then. Hard to find her bring us the folk and napkin after food are on the table, or ask for the beer we ordered quiet a while ago. Also many many spots, makes us very embarrassing. Asking improper questions.

She is young and raw. Need a lot of training .
We eventually offering 20% tips as encouragement and appreciation of the place and food.

Last night they forgot to staff. Waitress did the best she could. All the food was poor - cold and overcooked.

If you haven’t been to Pitchers yet, you’re seriously missing out. This place checks every single box for a great sports bar experience, and then some.

Let’s start with the food — honestly better than it has any right to be for a sports bar. The menu is solid across the board, but make sure you ask about the weekly specials, because that’s where they really shine. The kitchen clearly puts thought into them, and I haven’t had a bad one yet. The garlic fries alone are worth the trip.

The beer selection is fantastic. Whether you’re a craft beer nerd or just want something cold and classic, they’ve got you covered. And yes, there’s wine too if that’s your thing — always a nice touch.

But what really sets Pitchers apart is the service. The staff here is genuinely warm and attentive — the kind of people who remember your drink order and make you feel like a regular from day one. That personal touch is rare and makes a huge difference.
And then there’s the atmosphere.

Inside and out on the patio, there are TVs everywhere — excellent coverage of multiple games at once, which is exactly what you want on a big sports day. The patio has heaters for cooler nights, so it’s a year-round spot.

Pitchers has earned a permanent spot in my rotation. Highly recommend.

Ordered a pizza. However, the waitress brought it to the wrong table. The group hadn't even ordered yet. After about 20 minutes she then realized her mistake. They made us another one.

Amine is the reason we keep coming back. The moment we walk in, he already knows what we drink, which immediately makes the place feel welcoming and personal. During lunch he always points us toward the specials, and he’s never missed; the food is consistently great. Attentive without hovering, genuinely friendly, and clearly knows the menu inside and out. Service like this makes a big difference, and Amine delivers every time.

A local favorite. Great atmosphere. The place was packed when we were there and the service was still exceptional. All our meals were hot and delicious. Had a very nice evening. Full bar. Table service. Free parking on site.
