Too bad there aren't stars to review a SPORTS bar on their sports broadcasting & availabilities. This place had limited viewing options for March Madness conference games. On top of that, I felt like I was putting out the place by asking for more NCAA basketball games When I inquired, I was given the excuse that 'everyone' was watching Golden State Warriors. I get that it's a game of interest (love them) but there were plenty of TV's to accommodate other games. To say the least, I was disappointed with my local sports bar. I'm glad I didn't invite friends from around the Bay to join me. I'll be looking for alternate places to watch March Madness games because this isn't the place.

I misplaced my league's fantasy football trophy here and the manager went to the security cameras to help me find it. I think his name was Shaun. Thanks for going above and beyond dude.

I’ve been coming to Rookies for a long time, but after my most recent visit, I’m done—and people should know why.

During a major championship game, the place was packed with customers all watching the same broadcast. Out of nowhere, multiple TVs suddenly changed to different channels. The entire section was confused and frustrated, and none of the on-site staff had the ability—or permission—to fix it. They all said only the manager or owner could change the TVs, and neither was anywhere to be found.

Nearly an hour later, someone finally showed up claiming to be the owner. Another customer and I—who weren’t even together—both tried politely asking what was going on and why the on-site staff weren’t allowed to manage something as basic as the TVs during a live sporting event.

His response?
Mocking, rude, dismissive, and completely unprofessional.

He contradicted his own employees, insisted they could change the TVs (they clearly couldn’t), and seemed more interested in arguing with paying customers than understanding why half the bar was unhappy.

When I finally told him that this kind of treatment made me not want to come back, he literally mocked me for saying so.
At a place named Rookies, it’s pretty ironic that the owner behaves like… well, a rookie.

I’ve been a regular here for years, but this experience made one thing clear: the staff are trying, but the leadership isn’t. If this is how the owner treats customers, I’d recommend going anywhere else

I went to this establishment cuz I heard great things and at my arrival everything was perfect the service the aesthetics were great but then I witnessed a great discrimination a man and a woman sat near and I overheard them talking about it being there first time here even talking to the staff bout the menu they were friendly and polite till I seen a man come up to them accusing them of something malicious and they were being refused service both professing it being their first time there which I deemed of being genuine they were totally embarrassed and told to leave. The story may be deeper but the act was classless tasteless and uncalled for to stereotype and make accusations with no proof as loud as it was Is the sole reason I will never go back and never suggest this place to anyone
