I rate this place a 1 out of 5. We never made it in the door the smoke was so heavy. I just dont call this place family friendly at all.

We stopped into Rookies this past Saturday and had an awesome experience! Even though the place was packed, the staff was on it — friendly, attentive, and fast with both food and drinks. The food was great (way better than your average bar fare), and the whole atmosphere was just laid-back and welcoming. It’s one of the few spots around that still allows smoking, which was a nice bonus.
They’ve also got fun evenings with Extreme Bingo, late-night dart tournaments, and plenty of seating, so there’s always something going on and room for everyone to enjoy it. We even met the owners — a husband-and-wife team — both working right alongside their staff, which was really nice to see. You can tell they truly care about their business and their customers. Everyone was genuinely kind, and the whole place ran smoothly even on a crazy busy night. Definitely a new favorite spot — we’ll be back for sure!

Horrible if you are African American I witnessed the bartender call a guy a racial slur and security also. Very rude Elon musk supporters

Tried the food here for the first time and it was delicious! Customers service was great. Only incident I had was someone walked out with my food and I had to wait again for it to be made. Was offered an additional drink which was nice. I know moving forward to stay at the counter to get my order.

If you can't stand cigarettes it may not be for you,

Hidden gem, at 30 I never thought bingo would be a weekly occurrence for me, but when my coworkers stumbled upon, and subsequently kidnapped me to come play I ended up finding a very solid bar experience. The first thing I noticed was I could actually taste the jack Daniels in my jack and coke, a rare occurrence these days. Then I ordered a quésodia, and it was the best thing I'd ingested in weeks. I was hooked on those for a while, but then I discovered the wings. I have no idea what they do to their boneless wings, but regardless of what sauce you take boss, those things are straight bussin. The first time I put one in my mouth it was like the chicken version of melt in your mouth steak. Shook. All the staff seem to really enjoy their jobs, and want to have fun. After 3-4 visits they have your starter drink on the table almost before you sit down.

Plus for me being able to smoke and drink is a massive plus for any bar, but I know that's changing for a lot of younger people, but most patrons have at least one smoker at their table or one over.

Touch tunes, ATM fee is $3, Xtreme bar bingo Thursdays and Saturdays with pull tabs, pull tab machines always by the door, Darts, average sized seating at the bar and in the main room, more on the patio.

9.5/10 .5 off cause I keep blowing money on pull tabs while my whole table is winning and I've only won $70 ish over like 6 months ?, lol ?. Women just have better luck than men I guess.

Being from out of town wasn’t sure about the place at first but boy was I wrong. Bartenders were all awesome. Didn’t even wait a minute for a drink and very sociable. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

My reason in giving 3 stars was mainly for the smoking but also because queso isn't an option on the menu and salsa is actually just Pace Picante sauce.. However, they do have a patio and I would loved to have sat out there but it was raining and the patio isn't covered. (But as soon as the rain stopped, we did go outside) At first, service was quite slow but as people began to leave, it did get better. The drinks were great and the food was ok, but I just got nachos so you can't really go wrong there. Aside from that, it wasn't a bad place, just not good if you have health issues, care about your health or just hate cigarette smoke.
