Food was good. Super busy place on a Sunday! Tons of TVs for watching the game. Very loud for the games and overhead speakers. Don't expect super quick service due to crowd.

Biggest cockroaches I’ve ever seen.. in the bathroom, by our table, everywhere. We had ordered drinks, those were good yet we promptly left after seeing their infestation problem before ordering food.

Was that The Brown boxer hanging out on Labor Day weekend. Sister-in-law found the arcade upstairs had a freaking blast. We will definitely be back to the arcade now that we know it's there they should let more people know it's there or not so that it won't be busy when we go back

Best Sports Bar in the area. Meaning best bar food, atmosphere, and service. Did it help the Bears win, No! But it was still a fun place to watch the game.

7:30pm Thursday night decided to explore places other than our favorites. Hostess yelled from the bar we could sit where we want. The place had maybe 20 people in it. Clue #1.Nice server offered that they serve Coke products but the mixer is putting out flat Coke, so drink choices are beer, water or alcohol. Water it was. Clue #2.She did recommend the Boxer Balls as a specialty appetizer - fried Rueben in balls with dipping sauce 4/$12.99. Served hot, crispy and nicely plated. Actually very good ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.I ordered 10/15.99 wings naked, medium sauce and crispy/well done. Came well dressed in sauce but not crispy and on the smaller side ⭐️⭐️Wife ordered a wedge salad $13.99(?). About 1/3 head of lettuce, but served face down with out leaves up, clumpy packaged bacon crumbles, chopped tomatoes and okay blue cheese crumbles and dressing. Problem was everything had rolled of the lettuce creating a moat around the room temp lettuce in a warm bowl. Missed the “chill” part ⭐️Finished meal and waited 10+ minutes for a check. Once it arrived I offered card, she ran off and returned with the final tab and disappeared again. Prices were different!?! Got up and grabbed a menu from the wait station and noted in small print that “prices represent cash transaction. Use of a credit card adds 3.75% to each item. Understood but not a great experience. Make the price the price. Last time I checked McD’s doesn’t charge extra for the cup, lid and straw.Finally, tabled was a little sticky and bagged utensils still needed a wipe down. All up, app, wings, salad, water and tip =$56. Not a great value or place I’d visit again.

Great band playing last Saturday night. Drinks are strong, people are nice, atmosphere is fun. Club upstairs and beachy vibe downstairs. The outdoor access for the bar is nice. Place is huge! Best bar in CWB imo.

If you ever want your time to be ruined go visit the girl at the downstairs bar. She is constantly miserable and if she doesn't like what you say she will make sure you have a horrible time! At which she will argue with you you. I go out to enjoy my life not listen to her miserable life and ruin my good time and hard earned money! Second of all she got my food order wrong and is constantly ragging on all the guys at the bar. Go to her if you want to have a miserable time I promise you it will be what your looking for at that point. She listens to no points but her own and is a self serving person who only sees her customers as how much tip she should get!

Grabbed lunch today. Really liked this place. Tons of seating. Tvs everywhere. Lots of options on the menu. Friendly service, though not the fastest. Full bar. Decent wine options. Live music in the evenings. Upstairs and downstairs. On the main strip in Clearwater by the beach. The buffalo chicken do was wonderful. The mushroom Swiss burger was cooked perfectly. My side salad was fantastic.. fresh lettuce, covered with perfect toppings of tomatoes, Cucumber, onions and croutons. I ordered a BLT wrap and it was awesome. Prices were reasonable. Portions were spot on. Would definitely go back.

This was a fun place to listen to music and drink! We didn't order food, because we had already eaten the night we went here. We were looking for a happening place to hang out and this was definitely it!Great music, great friends, great time! Some great eye candy here as well!Definitely a must visit place when you are on vacation in Clearwater Beach. The age range was 21-Mature!

Two levels of bars of pure awesomeness. Bottom bar you've got a live band playing feet away from you. Great music with 2 bars, one half outside. Full food service and menu. Burgers are always on point!Top level hosts an arcade, club, and 3 bars. This is the second biggest bar (and known pretzel place) venue on Clearwater beach aside from Shepherd's resort. Highly recommend for groups and bdays! A little pricey for bar food but it's Clearwater beach and I'm a local.

The food is always great! We usually never have any problems but today we spent over 2 hours here. It took our server over 25 minutes just to get our drink orders and another 30 to come order our food. Never once came back for drink refills or to check on us. We had to hunt her down for our ticket and even with the terrible service she was still granted the 26% gratuity. Other people came in after us, got their food, and left before we even got our food. To add to this, there was no one else in her section and the place had hardly anyone in it so it wasn't that they were busy she was just a terrible server. Hope the next time is better

food was good, live music was great and Brandon was probably the best bartender my man and I have had BUT, DJ Danny was rude & his set was mid. He had the nastiest attitude when I requested ONE song and we were the only ones in there at the time. Aside from his sourness we LOVED the place. Would highly recommend still.
