I've stopped in here 3 times over the last year or so, done my local five bar had closed. Don't waste your time or money here. The first time a friend and I stopped in, the bartender blatantly overcharged is on everything and then refused to refund our debit card 6, rather refunding cash. There's nothing like trying to run fraud she's on new customers. Tonight, my son and I stopped in. There were only 3 customers at the bar when we sat down, but the bartender was far more interested in talking to 1 of them than addressing us. FYI, it was a less than professional conversation, leaning in much more intimately. When she was done with her chat, she proceeded to the kitchen to hang out for a couple minutes, only popping out to glare at us again while on the phone. Finally, after a couple more minutes with no sign of our bartender, we left. This place offers mediocre food (on a good day) and a pathetic beer selection. While I am all to happy to patronize a local establishment, even with subpar offerings, I'm not going to pay for such pathetic service. Take your money elsewhere. There are many far better establishments who value their customers, all within 5-10 minutes drive. Keep driving when you see the sign for The Sportsman.

The bar was full there was one bartender on Friday night at 8:30 pm and she was great. I know she heard me about extra ranch because she charged me for it.... She didn't have time to check the bag and it was fairly busy so I didn't want to unbox everything and check for ranch which I should have because I got absolutely none with my wings. Overall understaffed I've been here and the rusty nail before dude needs to stop hiring regulars for cooks their too busy trying to play bartender instead of reading tickets and getting orders placed correctly. The food tastes fine but there's a difference between ranch that comes with the wings and hidden valley in the fridge. I'm not even complaining about pricing but come on now I'm paying for the little things and I'm not receiving it. It 1000% matters. But the bartender again was wonderful 100% not her fault!!

Local spot where wife and I frequently have date nights. Inexpensive, but delicious food, cheap drinks and excellent service. Atmosphere I only gave 3 stars, because the crowd is hit or miss and depends what you're looking for. Good place to play darts and shoot pool, spacious enough that it never seems crowded, just needs parking lot paved to maybe bring in more customers.

The last few mondays I had dinner there. The bartender charged me per drink right away. When asked for the bill drinks where charged to the tab already. I almost did not catch it.. Last night the same bartender took her tip out of the change from the bill plus I gave her a few dollars. I feel that was a little ignorant. I tip really well in this establishment. I read the other comments about being over charged. Hmm I don’t think I’ll be going in when Ti Ti is working. I’ll probably update the days she is working so no one else gets screwed.

I’ve literally been sitting for a hour waiting for someone to come to our table so we can get the check or even a drink. Even went up to bar and our waitress/bartender said “give me a minute”. Not all her fault because they should have more workers.
