50 Best Sports Bars near Melvindale

“Great food & service! Friendly atmosphere“

“Big shout out and Thank you to the great staff at White Rhino. The manager /bartender, waitress, and chef, showed out and made things happen, on one of the worse summer storms ever. All around every where was flooded. And instead of closing up and going home. The staff was very accommodating, from the moment me and my family walked in the door. Food was great, Atmosphere was fun. And staff was awesome.“

“Every time is the best time at Parlay Detroit! This isn't just a sports bar - the food and service is fine-dining, but with a live-DJ and incredible atmosphere. They also have a downstairs speakeasy and soon a cigar lounge. Detroit has needed a place like this for far too long.“

“The most awesome golf facility I ever seen. They have over 10 Trackman simulators, putting green, and all the clubs you can ever need. Fitting. Bending. Merch. Food. And it’s ran by great people. I’m amazed. Must go and try. You’ll be back. It’s amazing.“

“This place is the best! I come here on weekends and they have the highest selection of ranches in the area! I will sit at the bar here for hours on end, throwing back their famous "Ranch Shots". When my thorat starts to burn from the ranch, they do have glasses of peptobesmol they offer for a small fee of $2.99. After Ranching it for hours it is really awesome they offer this!!!!

Dietary restrictions: They will provide ranch with your microwaved meal“

“She did a wonderful job we had a table of 12 she made sure everything was good and she was patience and had a great personality ! Hopefully we have her again!“

“Last night after jelly roll concert me and couple Freinds went here to eat. Was great food will definitely go back. The service was great. The waitress we had she was amazing she took care of us very well. I love the atmosphere and the vibes this restaurant/bar gives“

“The old locker room is where I met my husband of 35 years now, but the new locker has a great vibe as well. Food is Awesome, staff are friendly and helpful and the music brings a vibe that makes you happy and want to party. Let’s just say I love the Locker room. Ask for Lacey she’s the best waitress.“

“SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOODDDD !!!!“

“Went there to watch sports for game day. Nessa our server proved to be very special and capable.

We had the privilege of meeting Eric (owner) who was a gracious host.

We travel for NFL games all over and this is best time we’ve had“

“We've eaten here a few times. The food was great each time, and our server was terrific. It's tough to find restaurants with consistently good food and service. As a former server, it is hard not to notice every detail, and I am super picky about food. I just ordered a carry-out for my family, and I expect the quality to be the same. Definitely recommend 👌“

“*EDIT:
The owner did reach out to me to apologize and offer cleaning/replacements for my clothing. They also spoke with the staff to make a training and learning lesson for them which I appreciate. I’m changing my rating of the experience based on Owen’s response, as most owners do not attempt to rectify a bad situation.

I have never had an experience as bad as the one I just had at Firebird Tavern. Needless to say I will never return or recommend this place to anyone. The visit started well and our server was very pleasant and attentive. Halfway through our visit, a full tray of drinks and shots was spilled on me to the point that a mop was needed and a wet floor signed was placed behind me. Not only that, but my white shirt is stained and not reparable. I was soaked. The server eventually did apologize to me and told me that she was personally comping ONE of my drinks. First of all, I would NEVER expect the server to comp any drinks. Second of all, I was never approached by the manager to access the damage or talk about comps, WHICH I would assume from the establishment itself. When we were brought our bill, I asked the server, ‘what is the establishment taking care of for my damages’. The manager eventually came to talk to me and did not seem aware of the situation, even after many servers explained what happened and I showed him my clothing that was still wet and stained. He simply replied that the server was comping one drink and he would see what he could do. The server came back with the same bill, no initiative from the bar or manager and I paid for the bill as it was. How is this acceptable from a bar that my table paid several rounds of drinks and food for the night? I have never experienced this lack of care in my life and cannot express my disappointment and frustration with the management and overall experience of Firebird. What an embarrassment to our city. As a resident of the downtown area, I would never expect such a terrible experience.“

“Great environment for a game or if you're a sports fan. Staff is usually pretty personable but can be very overwhelmed. Especially on a game day. It just seems it may be time for hiring. Maybe time to expand operations.

The burger was delicious. And the jalapeño poppers taste fresh. My advice would be hire some wait staff. At least part time for game days“

“A very fun place!! Mona was the best!! Thank you TFT for a fun get together“

“I absolutely love this place. I always make it there on a Friday night, for obvious reasons, LOL! The bartenders are a joy to be around, and really bring the atmosphere together. The beers are cheap, and the food is decent for bar food (I normally get the buffalo wrap or the steak bites). Mostly an older crowd, but everyone is there to have a good time and that’s what I always have! Can’t go wrong with a bucket of beer.“

“Absolutely 100% recommend Nemo’s! We’re here for tigers opening day and I am breastpumping. I asked if they had a room I could pump, although they didn’t have a secluded area for me, they let me pump in this back area. Thankfully I had a wearable pump so you can’t see anything but one of the bartenders brought me a water & a hotdog and was just the sweetest man. Truly thankful for their hospitality! So very sweet! Above and beyond!“

“The Goat is hands down one of the best sports bars I've ever visited! The atmosphere is electric, especially during game nights. The decor pays homage to sports legends, creating a lively and nostalgic vibe.

The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure you’re well taken care of. The menu is a standout, featuring delicious wings, mouth-watering burgers, and a great selection of craft beers. Plus, with plenty of screens around, you’ll never miss a play.

Whether you’re catching a game with friends or enjoying a casual meal, The Goat is the perfect spot. Highly recommend it for any sports fan!“

“My husband and I came in on Friday for our first dinner date by ourselves and destiny made the experience absolutely amazing. She made sure we had everything we needed, her attitude was pleasant our food was great, if I could give 10 stars I would.“

“Very good place. One of my go to spots when heading downtown Wyandotte. Good and tasty basic bar fun menu. Good daily specials. Good happy hour. TVs for sports. Crowd is usually fun. Little outdoor space to chill when weather allows. No negative, all good. I'll be back!“

Special shoutout to the manager Lisa and the bartender Sophia for the hospitality!! We will be back again soon!“

“I had hosted a 50th birthday party this past weekend!! The team at JJ’s were more than wonderful and accommodating! The service and food were fantastic not to mention affordable! I highly recommend JJ’s to host any event!“

“Our usual server, Erin, makes this place our go to for family dinners. The food has been AMAZING since the new ownership, but Erin’s service has made Sports a standout for our family. She is quick to attend to our needs, and she’s always extra kind and attentive to our son and our dog (when the patio is open). I highly recommend Sports for anyone who loves good food and good service.“

“Anybody reading this, my mamaw was the barmaid there beginning in the 60s. Annie Ruth Ladd. They also lived above the bar for some time. My mother told me that she vividly remembers looking out the window and seeing the National guard going down Jefferson into Detroit. At that time, she was 9 years old. My mother grew up to work in the bar. Her name is Roseann or Rosie. I spent lots of my youth there, playing quarter machines. Rosie Also worked Square Deal. Y'all probably knew my papaw too his name was Jim Ray Boatwright and he was known in River Rouge as being one of the Town drunks lol God rest his soulCan't wait to stop in and reminisce!Also, if anybody knew my family or can share stories, please let me know. Thank you.“

“great time. GREAT food & drinks“

“The food and atmosphere is excellent!“

“Had An AMAZING TIME Staff Was Very Nice And Guest Are Very Friendly..!!“

“SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOODDDD !!!!“

“Great Atmosphere to watch a game or have lunch paired with a cocktail.

I’ve visited 4x since opening and every time the food has been tasty (Ahi Nachos, Waygu Sliders & Fries-nice & crispy!)

My one complaint is that not one employee has mentioned that an automatic gratuity is added (20%) to every check even if dining for one.
I don’t have an issue with it being added but, this not being verbally communicated is wrong.
I’m aware after the fourth visit that it is printed in the smallest font at the bottom of the menu. It’s almost as if it’s being “hidden”.

Look at the menu and form your own opinions.

I lived in Downtown Detroit from 2005-2020 and have seen the challenges of finding staff and them being tipped (not tipped) by patrons. This is why I’m okay with the automated tip but, it needs to mentioned up front or when presenting the check plus, in bigger font on the menu!

I hope some changes are made otherwise I will choose to go elsewhere on my next visit to Detroit.

I can only imagine how many people have tipped 20-25% on top of the automated 20%.
I was fooled 3x…

Not good karma…“
