Benchwarmers Eatery & Sports is a popular spot to enjoy delicious food while watching games on many TVs. The staff is friendly and helpful, with Ashley receiving special praise. Despite being a bar, it is kid-friendly. The outdoor area features a sandy volleyball court and a pool table. Visitors often find the atmosphere relaxed, and the food generally receives good praise. The salad bar looks like a good deal, but many guests prefer items like the patty melt and chili, which are both very good. There is a sign explaining that orders might take 75 minutes if the place is busy, and staff keep customers updated on wait times, which are usually reasonable. Some customers mention that food can be slow to arrive, with wait times sometimes reaching 60 to 90 minutes, making it one of the slowest places to get a sandwich and fries. Still, the quality of the food is appreciated. One visitor enjoyed the crab raccoon burger, describing it as tasting amazing, though the burger was a bit dry. Overall, many find the experience enjoyable and plan to return, though parking can be a little difficult due to the shared lot with a hotel.
