50 Best Sports Bars near Smyrna

“Got to do something about the chairs. Every time someone moves a chair it's like running nails on a chalkboard. Tonight was our 3rd visit, can't fault anything but the chairs screeching.“

“Excellent.“

“the calzones are fantastic!!“

“That new breakfast burger was on point! New menu is great.“

“The food was so delicious! The waitress was friendly. Definitely will return.“

“Thank You Sooooo Very Much, J.R. Crickets South Cobb for making my Dear Parents Birthday Celebration Very Special!.!.! The Lemon Pepper & Sanchez Flavored Wings were a Hit with The Bozemans!!! Dr. T L“

“McCray's is our local go to favorite! We're go not only for the food, but for the friendly family atmosphere. Many in our West Village neighborhood hang here multiple times a week. Our favorite menu items are all the salads, the smoked wings, nachos, and burgers. Cheers is an overused example, but with old friends and new friends, consistently good food and personalized service, it really fits. Thanks to the team, from the managers Kelly and Peavey, to our favorite staff Ashley, Tony, Cammi, DeMun, Maria, and the whole crew who makes us feel at home each visit!“

“Sydney and Lily were great bartenders!!“

“Had such an enjoyable time with Bianca. She was incredibly hospitable and made me feel right at home—like I was sitting at my own kitchen table.“

“Came from DC to ATL, Stopped in V12 and enjoyed our food I got the Rasta Pasta, Steak and cheese egg rolls was delicious, Vinny was there and of course I loved seeing him he’s one of my favorite people in my head. However, Faith was such a great server.“

“Great food and customer service!! Macy, our server and Regina went above and beyond to make our experience exceptional!! Enjoyed our time with them!“

“We came to Atlanta for a competition and decided to pop in and try some local restaurants Tin Lizzy Cantina. OMG the best guac fresh chips salsa and the steak Philly tacos the bomb. Not sure why their rating is lower but I know you can’t please everyone. I give them 10/10 OGG was our waitress so friendly, the down home atmosphere if you come to Atlanta and don’t come eat here. Everything was great. Thanks OGG for the great service we will definitely be back.“

“Had an awesome meal at Walk-On’s in Marietta, and Lysa was the highlight of our visit! She was super attentive, made sure our drinks were always full, and had a great personality that made us feel welcome. The food was fantastic, but the service made it even better. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Mariah was the best and gave the best service possible“

“SHAY did an amazing job serving dozens of guests at the bar- despite the fact that she had no help. She and the 2 table servers deserve a raise. Management/ owner needs to wake up and hire more help though, and pitch in themselves. The bathrooms need attention as well. The food was good but took a while to come out because of not sufficient staffing.“

“Wonderful service food & drinks It’s a must you stop by 42 bar & grill ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food was delicious. The Wagyu burger is fantastic. My reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was I didn’t love how the only 2 options for a salad on the side (rather than fries) were the Cesar or wedge. I wanted a small portion of the seasonal salad on the side. Not possible. I also didn’t love that it was a $2 upcharge for the Cesar on the side. Especially since I got the burger with no bun. I saved you money there, don’t charge me $2 for not fries. But like I said, the quality of the food was great, and what I did have was delicious! The server was also wonderful. Thoroughly enjoyed her, and sitting outside on the patio in the sun!“

“Highest recommendations to our server Paola. She handled our large pre-wedding party like a pro. Great service, lots of fun. The best.“

“I went here this week with a group of coworkers and I was impressed by the beauty, elegance, and layout of this restaurant. The server we had was very attentive. The appetizers and mains were delicious and hot. I shared the nacho dip, pretzel bites, and spinach artichoke dip. The nacho dip and pretzel bites were the best out of the three. For my main I had the ceasar salad and added salmon that was cooked to perfection. There was a little too much salad dressing on my salad for my liking so I suggest getting the dressing in the side. I was pleasantly surprised. Our group had a wonderful time and I would definitely recommend this restaurant inside of the Signia hotel for date night or work gathering because the style is versatile and there's something on the menu for everyone.“

“This was the families choice this past Sunday. We had 7 in our party. Had 4 appetizers, they were good, fried pickles a little to salty for me. Hummus was great. I am very picky when it comes to the Hummus. Everyone had a different dish. They were all good. Large menu too. Our server was the best. refilled drinks quickly. Food came out in a very fast manner as compared to other places we've been to. We do this every Sunday for 5 years now. The family had the best time competing in the pinball room. FYI bring lots of Quarters. you will have a ball. They do offer a change machine. We will definitely be putting this one on the return to again.“

“I just saw the Braves take on my O’s tonight and I gotta say this was a fantastic experience. The park has a superb design with all the amenities and sights and sounds that you could ask for in a stadium while still being centered around the game. The fans are fantastic and despite us putting a hurting on the braves in this game, the fans didn’t give up. I can only imagine if chipper jones, Andrew jones, David justice, smoltz and that dominant run was in this park. Also they have a very good set up getting to the stadium and the party doesn’t end after the game as the avenues outside are really fun too. It was worth the drive from Nashville today.“

“service, drinks, food, music and atmosphere was amazing. I will be coming back. I loved that the parking was free.“

“This was our first time here! I ordered the Shrimp Alfredo but was not happy with only 6 pieces of shrimp for having paid $20+. My partner got the Braised Short Rib and enjoyed it but wasn’t a fan of the mac and cheese. If you like a baked mac and cheese, then this isn’t for you! Our server was great and overall seemed like a vibe in here though.“

“Thank you Sports and Social for hosting us before the Braves game. This place is always packed for games so get there early! (like 3 hours) I like sitting at the bar and too avoid the wait, that's where we headed. The main bar under the TV's was agreat spot to watch sports. It works and is NOT like the front row of a movie theater. Our Bartender was Taylor, a pretty young lady. She made our drinks and asked if we wanted food. The drinks were tasty and made quickly. I tried the 'Baos' my friend ordered and they were delicious as well. We were there until game time, then it was a quick walk (about 50ft) across the door into the stadium. Taylor took care of us the whole time and checked on us consistently. Previously, I've had bad service there, so I don't come very often. Due to this experience I will return sooner. Please give Taylor some kudos! Great job“

“11/10 Would recommend. The staff was amazing and friendly! Great pricing, great food. I was here for work, and I didn’t even bother going anywhere else. I will definitely come back when in the Atlanta/Buckhead area!“

“I have been coming here for 12 years and live right next door. Seen a lot of bartenders come and go but the night crew they have now is amazing. That includes Jessica a tall blonde as well as Red, JD, Megan, and Audrey!! Jake doesn’t know shit“

“Dear Insight,Although I Enjoy My Experience Last Time, It Wasn’t So Pleasant This Time On January 13. Once We Got Done With Our Activity, We Ask Quincy (Our Instructor) To Take A Group Photo Of My Friends & I. He Was Going Back & Forth With My Friend With An Attitude. My Thing Is You Wasted All That Time When You Coulda Just Took Our Picture. I Expect Good Customer Service From Beginning To End Especially When It Was An Automatic Tip Added To Our Total. So Yes We Will Be Back But We Will Like To Book With A Certain Instructor.“

“PBR is the best spot to go after a Braves game! I’ve been going the past couple years and can always count on Kyra to take care of me and my friends. She is hands down my favorite bartender even though they are all sweet and amazing!“

“Awesome venue!!! Having waaayyy too much!!!“

“Me and my friend were there for Pride and this was our favorite bar.
I'm on the oldy moldy side, but I'm also a sports fan and this place has the TVs for all of the games going on. Nice atmosphere, and kudos to the bartenders and wait staff and the manager/ etc. Will deft go back next time in Atlanta.“

“We came during happy hour and ordered everything on the happy hour menu. Everything was so good. I highly recommend coming here. They had music playing and it was a great vibe.
Our waitress Niyah was so amazing! So welcoming and helpful. I would definitely return!!“

“I had a wonderful time at F1!! Kareem welcomed us to the event that they hosted ( “ NFL GAMEDAY TAILGATING”) . It’s hosted every Sunday . I think today was the pilot . We were guided to “ The Briefing room “ where the game was being televised, there was a display of food arrangements, and the sims were turned on. The food was amazing , drinks were great , and the hospitality was A1! Both Amonii and Brittany were very efficient with keeping the buffet fully stocked . Mahogani kept our drinks and water topped off. Overall , our experience was amazing and I’ll definitely return .“

“I love going to Laseters every chance I get“

“We hosted my dad’s 50th birthday here in a private room and it was a fantastic experience. Chris and Leona were VERY attentive and helpful for our requests, the food was good, the ambiance was great. I also think they prices for hosting private events was reasonable.

Would 10/10 recommend for a private event and for dinner“

“Absolutely the best food for brunch hands down. Waitress was absolutely amazing! Come see them!!!“

“Amazing food, best drinks and staff that goes above and beyond expectation! Will be returning soon and bringing friends! Super fun place!“

“Review Update 09/27/26: came here today to watch my favorite NFL team’s game. Yes, I can confirm they have Sunday NFL Ticket. And they are way less crowed than most places that have Sunday Ticket. Which makes getting food and drinks during the game a pleasant experience. Angie the manager made us feel so special!

Hands down THE coolest sports watching restaurant/bar in Georgia. Ten times better than Walk-on’s at The Battery. Kevin the bartender is very talented mixologist and just a cool guy to meet. He has great recommendations for food and beverage and his suggestions were spot on. Really cool buildout and patio, lots of tvs inside and out in the patio/alley and all around cool vibes. A must try. Ask for a “Kevin’s Summer Sipper” for a refreshing cocktail.“

“We were welcomed by a wonderful gentleman that was serving as the host he was very welcoming and nice, cracked some jokes while he sat us in a big comfy booth. We were out for a birthday celebration we ordered the appetizer of the Buffalo boneless they gave us Ranch and bleu cheese dressing, it was very tasty it was soft in the center and crunchy on the outside and had a lot of yummy buffalo sauce, we Loved it and again loved it today! Quick service, we ordered from the 2 for $25 special plus an appetizer! Great idea! I have never had a bad meal here! Love this place, big comfy booth seats! The portions are good nice and big and the entree was a creamy alfredo pasta with the chicken and that was very delicious of course I could not eat the whole meal so I will have a lovely lunch for tomorrow we had a really good time really good wait staff, she had coke zero refill on the table before I could even ask for it!“

“Visiting from CT and blown away by the food and service. The batter on the fish that came with fish and chips was amazing. And don’t even get me started on the grits!!!!! Chef Blake could not have made us happier with our meal choices. There was also a very nice spot to sit outside to enjoy the beautiful weather. Staff were both helpful and accommodating. 5 stars across the board and we have some fussy people in our party.“

“Honestly, this is one of the most underrated bars in atlanta. The only thing bad about this place is the parking but they validate for the deck across the street. The owner Doug is awesome. China (sp?) behind the bar is responsive and makes amazing drinks. The staff is awesome. The food is awesome. Even if you have to park across the street in the deck and then walk down, this place is totally worth it. Been coming here since it opened for lunch, dinner, or just a drink. Guinness on draft as well.“

“I have never been here before, came for a birthday party about a week ago. The atmosphere was chill, our group sat at the bar. The first waitress was super nice, she apologized that she wasn't here to stay, just covering for the moment. We ordered the first round thru her. She was very cordial, wished my friend a happy birthday and politely bowed out. The next girl was also super chill and cordial. I ordered the beignets and a cocktail with whiskey. I will say the menu prices were all over the place, some looked like a good value and other items were severely priced gouged. The drink was delicious, really hit the spot. The beignets, you only get three, but two dipping sauce cups. Although, I didn't finish them, they were good sized, so ultimately I was satisfied with the size to expense ratio. Others in the group also ordered food, with mixed opinions. Brie? Not worth it. Milkshake? While it was very decadent, it was way too sweet and was not, unfortunately, finished. Someone else got the biegnets and was happy. Another person ordered soup and was very happy. So mixed reviews on the food as a whole. Drinks were good, we had a good time.“

“I had an incredible experience at HAPPY HOUR ATL!!! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the vibrant atmosphere and the welcoming staff. The food was absolutely top-notch—each dish was bursting with flavor and perfectly prepared. The cocktails were expertly crafted, offering unique twists on classic drinks, and the hookah flavors provided a relaxing vibe to enjoy before and after the meal. Whether you're looking for a great meal, delicious drinks, or a chill place to unwind with friends, this spot has it all. Highly recommend it for a night out—I'll definitely be returning! Five stars all the way!“

“I play guitar at the open mic here on Tuesday nights. I really like this place. My waitress Quinn is the best of the best when it comes to service. The food is always good, and the atmosphere is always a good fit for me. They are also biker friendly, and that's important to me. I give them an A++“

“Billy is the man never been there before and right away we were able to relate on 80s bands stuff but I loved being there for a first and it’s fun and great service the staff was very respectful and quick when anyone needed someone for a drink or anything especially on a Friday I hope to go there again one of these day and the music was awesome this place knows how to have a good time!“

“good atmosphere, quick service..“

“It’s been a while since I have been to Black Bear Tavern. To my surprise, EVERYTHING is still amazing. Black Bear still provides a casual very laid-back type of environment. This was perfect as my friends and I had a long week and just wanted to partake in great laughs with great food… Upon walking in, the bartender welcomed us and advised us to sit where we would like. All of the empty tables were clean which made me very happy. LoL! Once seated, our waitress came over and greeted each of us with a warm smile and a pleasant welcome. With a traditional American Bar menu setup, we didn’t require too much time to figure out what we wanted. I decided on the Southwestern Egg Rolls as my App and the Swiss and Bacon Burger as my Main! Hear Me When I Say…. Wowsersssssssssssssss!! The Southwestern Egg Rolls are packed with meat and veggies. These are not the kind of egg rolls you find in your grocer's freezer. Along with being a great portion, they were fried to golden perfection. Being set at the perfect temperature makes for a super enjoyable experience. Warm and perfectly cooked insides surrounded by Golden Fried Goodness put me in a place of tastebud-pleasing bliss. I want some more just thinking about them. LoL! The Bacon and Swiss is HUGEEEEEEEEEE… Just like I needed it to be. There is nothing like a Moist, Meaty, Well Done Burger on a Friday. Furthermore, the fresh lettuce, tomato, and pickles allow for a perfect first bite. I decided to pair my burger with Tater Tots (well done) and they literally melted in my mouth. I’m talking golden fried potatoes, lightly salted, still hot as I dipped them in the room temperature ketchup! This is how you Friday Night in the Atl. LoL! Overall, I left full, pleased with the service, and to top it all off… I had food for the next day. Oh yes… I had leftovers!!! LoL!!!“

“I love this place. Great food. Excellent selection of beers, and the staff are amazing. Two thumbs up 👍 👍“

“I checked out The Projects Restaurant and Lounge and enjoyed the lively vibe. The music was great, drinks were strong, and the food hit the spot. It’s a fun place to hang out with friends, especially if you’re looking for a mix of good food and nightlife energy.“

“First time ever eating in Atlanta, was seated at the restaurant quickly. Waitress wasn't too welcoming, but the food was great. Appetizer pretzel portions were large. Just felt like the longest wait was to get our check at the end. However would definitely recommend.“

“I've been going to Mazzy's for over 5 years and the food and service has always been great. I was in a pool league, so was there almost every week for a while. They recently got new pool tables and stopped allowing smoking in the pool area which is nice. Great crowd of people and always a nice evening.“
