update: They responded to the review. They have not tried to reach out to me or Uber and there has been no refund. The review was to seem like they cared. Just reconsider ordering here, The food was not tasteful and actually dangerous because it wasn't cooked.

Service and atmosphere aren’t fair reviews I had my food delivered. I couldn’t eat any of it. I ordered a hamburger steak medium well (I have to order my meat that way because of a medical condition), coleslaw, mash potatoes, Philly cheesesteak . The Philly cheesesteak had cheddar cheese on it (it was gross), coleslaw had tons of mayo in it, and the hamburger steak was raw! A complete waste of $45.00!

Well, the bar tenders were drinking when I walked in, the drinks are over priced, so is the food!!!
I was asked to leave after I won a gentleman’s bet: Tampa Bay and Miami both won!
I spent $100.00 and
By the way, I want my money back!

This restaurant staff was not able to provide a Thanksgiving Dinner menu, but the drunk bar tender mentioned they would be open, I will never walk into this type of environment again!

I absolutely loved my football watching at this bar. They had great food service was excellent. It wasn't completely packed so there's room for a larger group. Highly recommend! Plenty of parking!

OMG!! Today was our first visit and boy were we impressed. Our expectation was typical bar food. This was in no way typical. We had the loaded potato soup. It was fully loaded with all the good stuff, very tasty. We then had the fried shrimp. These were no pre-breaded shrimp. These are freshly breaded and seasoned so well, we thought we were at our favorite Florida restaurant. They were cooked perfectly! The service was also commendable. We are bar people….our bar tender was attentive but not bothersome, thanks Emma! We will definitely visit again really soon!

We were looking for a quick place, a quick bite before an event. The service was great. Food was okay but I would definitely go back

My boyfriend and I ate here for early dinner and it was great! There's lots of seating so everyone can watch the games, lots of TV's, and a diverse menu for a sports bar vibe.

Parking: Limited number of spots, we parked across the street near the vet.

I just want to speak on a couple of employees, Jack and Natalie. They are both exceptional!. I am a black hospitality professional who is normally at work late and I love to patronize the late night spots on the east side of Atlanta and Decatur when my shifts are done
I was introduced to this location by friends and family and was immediately impressed by the staff at the time, especially Jack and Natalie. I am very dissapointed to hear that he was let go. He was nothing but wonderful to me and those I know that he served. Apparently he was let go for a misunderstanding where he was painted as a racist from a person who was belligerent and being addressed by the decatur police force for being so? I'm sorry, but that small description makes no sense to me. I'm sure there is more to the story, and I hope the owners have their employees back, especially in a place where being open late carries it's own challenges. Bottom line, I feel that Jack was wrongly terminated and needs to return to his position. Thanks!

Why was one of your best bartenders fired for a bad yep review. I haven’t been back since. Jack was very nice and professional and a great bartender. Me and the people I introduced to him and this place I did it because of him. We always told people to go se him. Now because of how benchwarmer treated this man I’m telling people to go elsewhere because you can’t please everybody. Please bring this man back or I will not be patronizing this place or my people

Dave Murray, owner, was awful when I went in with my friends last Sunday. We wanted to watch the F1 race. The bartender turned one of the many tvs on to F1 for us. Dave came out scolding the bartender, telling him not to touch any of the tvs during 1pm football on Sunday. I was embarrassed for the bartender.

Then the owner asked me and my friends what we wanted to watch. We said the F1 race and he put it on. Another table was asking for the F1 race and the bartender was putting it on for us only to get yelled at by the owner who then put it on anyway.

Will not go back.

Came in to make an order at 1:45am asked the bartender if the kitchen was closed, she said yes, then I saw a server taking a new table taking a food order so I asked the server if I could place a Togo order with him and he said yes absolutely. Then the bartender proceeded to come to the server and tell him that he couldn’t take my order then went to the kitchen and had what I presume was a kitchen manager come out and allow the servers table, but not my Togo order. I came in the restaurant to pick up an order for Uber eats wasn’t making s fuss, just wanted a late night meal. The place closes at 2:55am but I guess such is life when you’ve got lazy employees and piss poor management. (Except for the gentlemen that was willing to take my order, nice guy with a colored goatee)
