50 Best Sports Bars near Lyons

“Y-E-S!!!! Love this place. Dive bar? Maybe. Ambiance? Bright lights. Service!? Super friendly (Kim!) Food? Yes! Deep fried but that is ok. Mozzarella sticks. Cheese curds. Cauliflower cheddar bites. Cheese fries. Mmmm mmm!They have Hamms! Woo! Best Hamms decor ever. The old Hamms clock is so neat. Thank you, Kim, for your bubbly personality and great service.“

“My brothers and I have patronized H.F.S.G. for many years now and it never disappoints. The food is amazing (compliments to the chef), our drinks are perfect!! (special thank you to our bartender/server Kensley for always taking great care of us!!) We definitely find the time to return when our schedules permit!“

“Excellent place to chill and watch a game! The food is amazing from the wings to the tacos to the nachos. Great drink specials as well. I definitely recommend it. The bartenders and owner are great! Give it a shot, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Jay and his team are fantastic! This is absolutely one of the nicest bars in the neighborhood, and deserves recognition. We have had our company party here since they opened, and we have not changed venues as it is the best place to book your party!“

“We came for Valentines to try the food and beer. The menu is simple and to the point. We both had smash burgers. Let me tell you, the burger was delicious. I went with the double and it was huge. I'll get the single smash burger next time. The cheese curd basket with ranch was really good. The atmosphere is chill, the food is yummy and reasonably priced. Oh and the beer on tap was nice and cold. Definitely coming again to try the pizza ? ?“

“Been going to The Globe for almost 15 years. Always a great time, but today in particular for the big Arsenal vs. Liverpool match, the staff went above and beyond with a packed house. Service was excellent and patrons both new and old to the pub were very thankful for the wonderful staff and all they do. Felt like the old days :)“

“We heard their fries were awesome and had to give it a try. We chose to go around 4pm on a Saturday and beat the dinner crowd, sat at the bar and had speedy service all around. They also have wood bar toppers to give you for food orders at the bar since the way the bar top is originally built isn't the best for eating. There is a decent tap list and their duck fries were as good as claimed. I can't speak for their busier times but when we went it was clean, we were greeted and our food came out quick. Overall, it's worth a try to decide for yourself.“

“I would highly recommend fourteensixteen as it is by far the best restaurant in lagrange. The staff are amazing, the vibes are on point, and the location itself presents itself well. I got the pistachio covered lamb rack when I last went, and it was phenomenal. The dish held up well, the lamb was moist, and the sauces complimented the lamb perfectly. I also had the mango cheesecake, and I can still remember how perfect the cheesecake was. It was a perfect amount of cheesecake flavor to mango flavor. I would highly highly recommend this restaurant as I have yet to see a better one in the surrounding area.“

“Excellent old school Ukrainian Village bar. No sign on the front which is already a good sign (no pun intended). Great drink prices and great bartender, Clayton. Had a Bell's Two-Hearted, bought a t-shirt and continued my bar crawl. Great first stop.“

“Solid sports bar with an Irish twist, they've got darts, skeeball, and a few other games. Food is surprisingly good and the drink menu is solid.Layout wise it feels like they've got two bars with the center wall cut out. Makes for a lot of space and great throughput on drink service.Well worth your time if you're looking for a sports pub.“

“Local bar that we walked to to get a few drinks on st Patrick's day. The specials were nice but we ended up getting some Guinness and car bombs. I got to try malort for the first time (not really a fan) prices were fine. The bartender was friendly and attentive. Wasn't too crowded. Had video poker inside which is something I'm not used to due to not being from the Midwest. I'd swing by and get some drinks here again“

“Amazing sports bar! Eric was our “best” bartender with his amazing hospitality and continuous conversation. He was on top of his game with making sure we were taken care of. He truly cared about the conversations he had with us and his guests. The food was great quality and served appropriately. Only if all owners/bartenders could be like Eric, life would be great!“

“Stella's is the perfect divey Ukrainian Village gem. Great mix of typical beers/booze plus some polish staples, yum. Stella herself is the real reason to visit, she is the absolute best. There's games, boppin touch tunes, and pups are allowed! What more could you want in a bar?“

“Sergio was AMAZING! Excellent food , excellent drinks, excellent environment! I got the honey margarita and my friend got the white sangria , both EXACTLY what we wanted. So refreshing! Sergio's recommendations were right on! The Scorpio Burger and Grilled Chicken sandwich blew us away! Can't wait to come back!“

“Great local spot for wings, pizza, beers, music & vibes. Staff it great. It does get pretty busy or packed some times so having patience is key if you are going in hangry. Overall a great selection if you want the neighborhood bar outing.“

“Came here for Samantha’s birthday party November 25th and what more can I say… such a blast. Music and drinks were amazing. Cant say how much the owner Sway takes care of his clients and creates a great atmosphere. Would 100% recommend anyone to come here and have a good time!“

“The place is nice been going into the place here and there and everytime did not disappoint. The bartenders are very nice and cool, eager to play pool and vibe to make the time well spent. Supporting a female owned bar it's awesome to support.“

“I love this bar so much I started coming here with my friend Liz who works here and it's such a good vibe. No drama good music good drinks and amazing people. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BAR come down to tio Juan's for a good time and events“

“After driving home from a long day, I stopped by for a beer after work. I’ve never been there before and I was just frustrated from traffic. So I stepped inside for an hour. Music was great, sports on TV, drinks were affordable. I would definitely go back!!“

“We had dinner here during our visit to Chicago. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The server made us feel right at home and was so helpful in giving recommendations. I had the steak salad and taco soup and my husband had the carnitas sandwich, all were phenomenal. We had such a good time that we decided to stay and move over to the bar after dinner. Highly recommend and we will be visiting again!“

“Look the food here is great. I had the grilled chicken sandwich, the steak bites, tater tots, and my wife had the shrimp basket with the corn. Everything was delicious. The bartender was awesome. The vibe was great. PLEASE GIVE THIS PLACE A TRY!!! They have 1/2 off well drinks during happy hour and boy did I leave happy!!“

“First time hereFood was excellent ??highly recommend ?We stayed for a few drinks and played the slots.. ? ?didn't win but had funI would definitely go back for the food?I Got the Italian beef it was one of the best I ever had ?I love the fact that they pay tribute to the local high school??(I also went to that high school? )Also I'd like to point out the restrooms, when I say they were the nicest and cleanest restrooms I have EVER been in in a tavern I promise you they were!Definitely a local barHad a good timeSorry no photos the food looked so good and I was starving so we dug right in but it was great!Additional parking in back“

“I love happy hour and it loves me back!!! I recently visited here to try their happy hour, which runs Monday through Friday, from 5 PM to 7 PM. It includes half off of their pizzas and $10 pitchers; there is also a beer and shot special for $8!My waitress, Sammie, was such a sweetheart and so helpful (ask for her)! She recommended that I try the Music City Melter and I LOVED IT. It had Nashville hot fried chicken, sweet and spicy pickles, white sauce, provolone, and mozzarella cheese, and buttermilk ranch drizzle. The Nashville fried chicken on top was good by itself! But coupled with the flavors of the pizza end it was definitely a winner! I totally understood why Sammie said she could eat one by herself!They have other pizza creations like The Notorious P.I.G., The De Niro, and Frito Pie and everyone knows the wings here never disappoint. AND there are now free games!!!I think you should go every day for happy hour and try a different pizza...... JUST SAYING!!!! Enjoy!“

“Tucked away in Hickory Hills on Roberts Rd just North of 95th, The Sock Bar & Grill is a sports aficionado's paradise that serves up not only a winning lineup of games on multiple TVs but also a menu that'll keep you coming back for more. The moment you step in, the atmosphere envelops you in the true spirit of a sports bar. The buzz of excitement fills the air, amplified by the sights and sounds of games on every screen. The digital jukebox sets the perfect soundtrack for your visit, adding an extra layer of energy to the lively ambiance. One of the standout features is the wrap-around bar, a hub of activity where the barmaids are on point, delivering swift service and deserved attention to patrons. They greet you with genuine smiles, ready to recommend a drink or chat about the latest game. If you're seeking a bit more privacy, the separate rooms for private parties offer a cozy setting for celebrations and gatherings. Now, let's talk about the star players on their menu. The fried pickles are a game-changer--thick-cut and perfectly crispy, they're a savory delight that keeps you reaching for more. The loaded nachos bring a fiesta to your taste buds with layers of cheese, fresh toppings, and just the right kick of spice. And let's not forget their flatbread pizza--Chicago style at its finest, boasting flavorful toppings atop a crispy crust that's pure satisfaction. The Chicago dogs pack a punch of flavor, although they fell slightly short without the iconic poppyseed bun. Nevertheless, the taste is spot-on, a tribute to the Windy City's famous dog. But it's not just the food that scores big at The Sock Bar & Grill--the drinks are fantastic! Whether it's their signature cocktails or a classic brew, they've got something to quench every thirst. And amidst the excitement and delicious bites, there's one constant--a welcoming smile from Kasha (spelling might need correction), who adds an extra touch of warmth to the experience. Overall, The Sock Bar & Grill hits a home run with its inviting atmosphere, mouthwatering menu, and stellar service. It's the kind of place where sports enthusiasts, foodies, and friends gather for an unforgettable time. So, grab a seat, cheer for your team, and indulge in a winning combination of great food, drinks, and hospitality at The Sock Bar & Grill. Cheers to a fantastic game day experience!“

“These great neighborhood joints are nearly gone but thankfully this one survives. A fresh new look with an extensive cocktail menu and the old Chicago standards still intact. Bartenders who greet you as you walk in and make you feel like you belong. Dog welcoming. Ownership that seems to have the neighborhood in mind with all they do. If you can't love a place like this, you don't get Chicago. Give Naperville a shot.Parking: Parking at all? You can walk to this joint. That is the point.“

“This is the best sandwich shop! You can tell the bread is fresh and the deli meats are freshly sliced. We ordered online for pickup and got a bogo deal through Uber Eats so we didn't have much interaction with the service. On the inside it's a little shop with a bar and limited seating. Luckily we live a half mile away because I will definitely be craving this. Pro tip: add banana peppers to the west sider.“

“Service from reservations, to dinner and service at the event was excellent. Drinks are very reasonable and surprisingly not water down as you would find that other bars. Food was good. Making reservations was a breeze. Only downside that was extremely disappointing was the band was an hour and a half late to start. Don't know what the issue was with the band but I'm not sure how that could be the venues fault. we're definitely coming back again!“

“Came in to watch a March Madness game, got seats at the bar right away. Service by Amanda was top notch-she was very attentive without being too aggressive. Food was delicious! Highly recommend the friend pickles and the gyro trash sandwich. Natural cut fries are the best!“

“Great sandwiches, beer selection, and shot special in a cozy, local neighborhood setting where, like cheers, everybody knows your name. There are 3 connected businesses here. A package goods liquor store with a great selection and reasonable prices. A sandwich bar with tasty sandwiches, beer, and limited mixed drink options. A draw for locals and visitors alike. The latest addition is a coffee shop, which is clean, white, and a welcome addition to the neighborhood. There are limited coffee options in walking distance in this corner of the neighborhood. Coffee is one of the few things I make well, so I can't comment on the third establishment. If like the other 2, I'm sure it's a great early time gathering spot.“

“This is my favorite bar in Berwyn. The owners are delightful, and the staff is exceptional. The drinks are reasonably priced and delicious, and their outdoor patio is perfect for all seasons with its heat lamps, games, and friendly atmosphere. Additionally, you're welcome to bring in your own food from one of the fantastic restaurants in the neighborhood.“

“I used to run a trucking account for a mega carrier that delivered right down the street from here. I'm not lying when I say this is the only bar I've ever drank in. Chicago doesn't allow beer sales in convenience stores I guess. Was recommended that I buy a six pack here. I was not disappointed in the slightest. I tell stories down in Georgia about this place from time to time. It's like a legend to all my friends... None of them can get me to drink in a bar to this day. Cheers guys..“

“I spend a lot of time here a lot especially in the summer. I have a specific order and each and every time it's done with perfection. Any where I go to eat I ask to make my food with love and that's what I receive every time. Oh the drinks are amazing as well.“

“Seriously you can't find a much better place to have not only drinks and sports events but the food is high end resturant quality ....Seriously! David is not only an entertainer but a great cook.... I would highly recommend being a regular....Oh and the have games too for the gamblers ?“

“We came here after a zoo day and the entire family enjoyed it. We got the cheese curds and Brussels sprouts for an appetizer and they were both delicious. The fish tacos were great, but the corned beef tacos were out of this world! Highly recommend this place for an afternoon lunch or family dinner.“

“This is a nice restaurant. Little out dated on the decor and the windows are very drafty during the winter time, air pours in them so you don't want to sit next to them if you want to stay warm. But they have really good soup. I had stuffed pepper soup and it was very yummy. Wish I got a whole bowl instead of a cup. The waitress was very friendly.“

“For Friday date night it was perfect! Appreciated the security safety first right. Service was good, they waste no time to clean up. The food, best i had, seriously returning for the food for sure. It was authentic, homemade delicious. We started with a bucket of Estrella beers, tried the Michelada since they are known for the best of Chicago and a cantarito. So good! Music, TVs, everything was nice. For a Friday it was busy but it felt very chill. It was a perfect Friday night. Thank you!“

“Stopped here after a hockey game in Darien and wanted to review. Super clean! Staff (Dan) was awesome, so friendly and helpful. Food was awesome, huge beer/drink menu. Apple cranberry salad was so good. Great stop and hope to come back again soon.“

“Very nice clean bar, love the warm welcoming feel and drink options. They have open mic every third Friday of the month. We really enjoy this neighborhood bar. Great bar service. Great staff, Daren and Neda are fantastic! They also have pizza from Waterworks! They have gaming machines, I like to play a few and have been lucky!If your a Bloody Mary drinker they make a good one.. ?“

“Greeted right away by Cindy. Super attentive and fast. A softball team came in a while later. Asked for a few buckets, specialty drinks and pizzas. She was awesome at attending to everything and I even overhead the team say she was "on fire" tonight which I feel is accurate. Over all, awesome experience and fun time! Highly recommended and will be back!“

“We recently rented the event space at Underpass Lounge to have a surprise birthday party for my son. It was a great time!!! First, it was very affordable which I appreciated. Geno was extremely nice and very professional. The staff that night was very friendly, extremely helpful and a complete pleasure to deal with. I would definitely recommend this location if you have a small event planned. I will absolutely keep them in mind for the future. My thanks to Geno and Underpass Lounge.“

“Great place for young and older families for lunch or dinner, or just grabbing drinks with friends! They always go out of their way to make you feel at home or like family. All the food is quality and the staff is courteous and attentive. We have young kids and have been going to Riley's for many years which we always enjoy and highly recommend If you are new in town or have never been. I would say Riley's is a must-go experience whether you are looking to have a few drinks or looking for a good meal with a true family atmosphere. They are always very accommodating and the service Is top-notch while the quality of the food is the icing on the cake for your overall experience. Also, a phenomenal place to watch sporting events or even hit karaoke. I never thought to post many years ago until I was looking to order catering on their website which brought me to this post. We enjoy Steve, Debby, and family every time we go... They make the experience great! Thank you for always taking care of our families.“

“Great place to visit. Very comfortable surroundings. Great get away place to think during the early evenings. My favorite time to visit is around 11:00-5:00pm. I listen to great music have a beer or two and play the slot machines. At times win big!!! Victoria's has all types of music, in- expensive drinks, ales and spirits. Fabulous owners and friendly regulars. Private Parties in doors and out doors. You will be glad you stopped by.“

“Such great food! What a great atmosphere! They are very simple and they let you customize what you like. I got a burger and some fries and it was delicious, cooked perfectly. I got a root beer in a bottle and that was good too. I'll definitely be coming back.“

“On this night, we visited our local Iowa Hawkeye bar, Gracie O’Malley’s to enjoy some NCAA women’s basketball amazing number 22 Kaitlyn Clark.This bar is pretty big and well appointed, with lots of TVs for viewing and an outdoor seating area when the weather permits.They have grace solution of beers in full bar with some delightful proprietary cocktails.Their kitchen is banging out some amazing dishes, such as the pulled pork poutine, the grace, O’Malley‘s burger and the southwest chicken sandwich. The burger was juicy and delicious. The chicken sandwich was crispy and spicy and you came on a brioche bun. Topped with fresh tomatoes and purple onions. Very well and very tasty. I paired it with mac & cheese, which is not a traditional mac & cheese by any means. This mac & cheese was out of this world. Fantastic! The only reason why this place did not get a five star rating was because they were short a waitress on this particular Monday. However, our bartender was very social and accommodating. Will definitely be back again for final four.“

“We visited Chicago for the weekend and we were welcomed into the bar by people having fun inside! We had such a good experience that we came back the next evening. Staff and management are so kind and the atmosphere is laid back and welcoming. Highly recommend.“

“First and formost GRACE IS THE BEST BARTENDER IVE EVER MET!! Fun, inexpensive (tons of daily drink specials) and has pool tables, dart boards, bags outside, nice outdoors area, jukebox, and updated slot machines, they Also play most sports games on their big flat screen televisions :)friendly staffA good timeMy favorite bar“

“@joislunchlove seafood, I see food and I eat it... looking for something other typical bar food and it was this salmon or the meatloaf.... well I should play the lottery this week cause I picked a WINNER. This delicious salmon with rice and steamed veggies made my week.#perfectsalmon #stadiumclubatthemax #ilovemylunch #cleanplateclub #luckypick #shouldplaylottery?????“

“This place is amazing! The food is delicious! considering it’s “bar food”. I’ve had the wings, the cheese curds, Cajun fries, pizza, and my son loves the burgers! Rudy makes the most amazing margaritas! He is one of the best bartenders I’ve ever had. He’s friendly and gives GREAT service. I stop by for brunch every chance I get and have friends/ family meet me there whenever possible. Chill spot that even my son loves! He loves burgers and loves the kiddie cocktails Rudy makes. I recommend 100%“

“Great place to sit down and have a few cocktails with friends or family. People are friendly and great to have conversations with. Bartenders give good service, nice to chat with and give good advice......just joking on that part. But all in all, great neighborhood sports bar.“
