16 Best Sports Bars near Altoona

“When we got here there was only high tops. The hostess could see that we had small children and made a point of getting a booth cleared in 5 min to accommodate our family. Angeleah was a great waitress. Very patient with our children and attentive to us.“

“We love this restaurant! Always good service and food! Best margarita around!“

“Food came fast and was delicious 😋! Service was friendly and attentive! Highly recommend!“

“I normally would not leave a review for a chain restaurant, but we had such exceptional service that it felt merited. Our server was the most attentive and kind server I have ever had at a restaurant like this and it made our meal great. I did not catch his name but he was an absolute rock star and he made our day!“

“Bears fans need to come and watch a game“

“darts, drinks, food and fun“

“It definitely has changed from when I have been there years ago, but it's definitely for the better. Whe. You walk in its nice and open on the right to have conversations you can hear and pool tables on the right. It now has a jukebox (it's what I still call it) and no longer a stage. You can tell that business is not as busy since the changes, hopefully it picks back up for whoever the brave bar owner is. The bar staff ,she was happy,honest and just plain people's, with drinks with perfect mixtures, that make you feel relaxed and at home.“

“I was in town for business and met a friend here. The staff recommended plenty of good options but I ended up with the Pork Tenderloin sandwich. It did not disappoint. It was a nice change from the usual lettuce and tomato and instead having the slaw with the pickled onion and jalapeno! I'll visit again next time I am in town!“

“Lots of variety. Flavorful and hearty.“

“With a rambunctious toddler it’s sometime stressful to go out to eat as a family but the staff at Tavern 36 always make us feel welcome. The service is speedy and the food is delicious. It’s our go-to family-night-out restaurant!“

“All around enjoyable place to go and eat! I had the Maui pizza, my wife got the Philly cheesesteak pizza, and our friends shared the buffalo chicken pizza. All 3 types were great! I wish the crust had some sort of garlic butter glaze or seasoning. The 9” pizza was enough to feed 2, the 12” we could have fed 3 and possibly a not so hungry 4th person. Paired with my pizza I ordered the mulberry mule; it was not very flavorful, but wasn’t terrible. The server was friendly and professional. She checked on us often.

The pizza did take a while to come out, I understand it is made fresh however, if it was a full house I could only imagine the wait time. I suggest turning on another stove if they have one during dinner service.

Overall great experience and will definitely go back!“

“Sure, it's a strip mall bar that's pretty much a dive, but I love it. Staff is surprisingly attentive and polite for how busy it can get and I've never had much of an issue with the clientele. Love coming hear to watch Hawkeye, Cyclone or Cubs games. Insanely low prices also. One of my favorite bars in the city.“

“One of my favorite bars in Ankeny! We went there last week and got the cheese curds and buffalo wings...and shocking, they might have been the best wings I have ever had! There was live music which was also awesome. Quick service, kind staff. My husband & I had the best date night there (sat at the bar).“

“The atmosphere was very laid back, the food was really good we got buffalo egg rolls, spinach artichoke dip for appetizers I got the Philly cheesesteak and fries and friend got the Nutty Buddy Burger with Cole slaw we really enjoyed both appetizers and our meals. Service was quick and I appreciated how nice our server was also I assume the manager or lead but she kept coming over to make sure we were satisfied and that our food was tasting good! Definitely recommend! The food was a little pricey are tab came to 66$ with no alcoholic beverages but really good!“

“This place is the bee’s knees. Consistent fast fresh & friendly. Fair prices too. They’ll modify your order to make you something, even if it’s not on the menu. They used to have a burger I liked that wasn’t on the menu, but our server Levi knew what we were talking about and told the kitchen. The best service we’ve seen for a long while.“

“Wife and I came in late. Sever Jackson was an absolute pleasure and was great. Listened to all our questions and was pleasant the whole meal. Will definitely return and will ask for his section. Food was good. Everything was as we ordered it.“
