50 Best Sports Bars near Sterling Heights

“Chicken Bella and The Proper burger were both amazing. The Ahi Tuna is NOT worth $22, seeing as it's mainly just a cabbage salad, with like 7 pieces of tuna. Although, the dressing on it was great. Margaritas were okay. The host that took our drink order was very blah, wouldn't look at us, smile, asked drinks and walked away. We weren't sure if she was our waitress or not, she set waters down and just walked away, would have been nice to be told that she wasn't our server so we weren't confused. But also, not a huge deal. Server was awesome, super friendly, and quick with service but patient when we asked if we could take our time. They stayed on top of pre-bussing the table, which is always appreciated. Definitely will be back!“

“The names of the staff that I can remember our Tayler, Courtney what’s the guys name Trevor, Trevor, Eric Gary, Harry, Harry, the girl who had the blue snowman on her black shirt under it I was here at the bar don’t remember she’s been here a couple nights in a row though, since I met you in the past couple weeks yeah she’s nice I just want to thank everyone for welcoming me here at Robusto‘s because everyone is nice, and they help me find a cigar that is perfect for completely“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Food & Friendly Service at Applebee’s!

Had a great experience at Applebee’s! The food was fresh and flavorful—I ordered the Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp, and it was perfectly seasoned. The service was friendly and attentive, though the wait time was a bit longer than expected. The atmosphere was cozy, making it a great spot for a casual dinner. Overall, a solid choice for good food and a relaxed dining experience.

Would definitely come back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I really enjoy the Mug Pub. Almost all of their dishes are great, but since they reopened after the fire, the portion sizes have noticeably shrunk. It could be a combination of factors like COVID and inflation, but it’s definitely something to note. They have a new dish called the hamburger steak, which is excellent—just watch out for the onions! I’m also a big fan of their wings. The drinks and atmosphere are very nice, and they have a lovely outdoor patio. It’s a great neighborhood bar with a decent menu, and the drinks are solid as well. The staff has always been nice and pleasant. There are tons of TVs for watching games, etc. For what it is, the food is generally above average, though a bit pricey for what you get. That said, I’d still recommend it.“

“Stopped by for lunch.Food and service was excellent. I will always come back.“

“came in a few weeks ago with my girlfriend and forgot to write this but i just remembered how good the service was with michael, michael was literally the best server i’ve had ever.. it was really packed but michael was communicative and very attentive, deserves a raise fs“

“Food was good and service was acceptable (nothing special) but you had a group of 5 guys leave your restaurant last night somewhat bewildered after your waitress Katarina made it quite clear she was not happy with the 20% tip we gave her. Apparently, our stay of about 3 hours eating and drinking was excessive. We may not be back.“

“The Hub is the absolute best for parties of all sizes. The staff are absolute pros! Super friendly and capable of handling a crowd. Thanks for another great night!“

“We held our private event in the enclosed patio at Firebird in Troy. The patio was heated and decorated to look like a lodge. All of our guests felt like they were in a homey environment. The food and the service was impeccable. Our guests were so pleased at the attention to detail and the promptness of the serving staff. The event manager, Jenna, made the entire planning process easy and stress free. She helped us set up our buffet menu and was there day of assisting in decorating and making sure everything was in order. I would highly recommend hosting a private event here and plan to do so myself for future events!“

“So enjoyed this experience! Great time had by all. Will do this again.“

“My friends and I love coming here! We’ve made it the spot we visit regularly! Great food, fantastic staff and a welcoming atmosphere all around!“

“I went to Jimmy's during on March 20th to watch NCAA games. Lisa was my bartender. She was great. She put on the games for me. I asked her to make me a Spanish coffee and looked it up so she can make it for me. She did a good job with that. I had soup and a tuna melt both were very good and satisfying. I totally recommend this place and I will be back.“

“Dinner last week was great! Our waitress Annabelle was fantastic! Place was busy, but she gave great individual attention and fast drinks ❤️ we will be back!“

“I love that I can talk right to chef Bill and find out what food I can eat or not eat due to having celiac. ( I lucky don't have to worry about cross-contaminated gluten). He always hooks me up. Can't do that at most places , especially a bar restaurant. Staff is always super great too.“

“The Hideout shocked me, i drove by for many years and figured it was a hole/little bar. When I walked in the interior was very nice. So the business end of the review, i had a cheeseburger with grilled onions and it was so darn good I was shocked. I came back the following night it was so good hoping they could replicate it, im not here for the drinks but the cheeseburger! Once again the chef comes through with a home run. Ill be back tomorrow or the next day, its that good and its of tremendous value, im not sure how they do it. The place is a gem!“

“I just found this place and month ago and I've been back 3 times. Asian Tacos app and the quesadiila burger everytime. My wife got the Roast beef sandwich tonight and I had a bite, it was really good too. they're working on a new menu that I can't wait to try more of their food. Basam and Stacy have been great everytime I've been there too.“

“It’s family. But better food.“

“Been many moons since I patronized this southern Warren establishment. Was impressed how clean and updated inside was. Great service, nice atmosphere, several pool tables, friendly people and very reasonable prices. Will be back.“

“Food was outstanding, employees were friendly, and the atmosphere was great. The soft pretzels are a large size, food came out hot, we were asked a bunch of times if we needed anything, which I like. Our waiter did a great job, food was great, Thank you for a great night out with family!“

“I wish I took a picture, but it wouldn’t have even been adequate to how good this place’s food is. Trent was our server and his taste in food was SPOT ON. Exactly what we were looking for. We ordered fried pickles, my husband had the truffle burger with truffle fries & I had the shrimp ravioli (suggested by Trent). Everything was delicious!! I highly recommend Trent & giving this place a try! We will be back!“

“Best place tuesday burgers are fantastic lori and Al are the best makes you feel like family love this place clean service is GREATEST“

“Well, this is your typical somewhat hole in the wall bar, although a little more upscale than that.

The food typically is pretty good. The service not so much.

I probably should have given a little higher score for atmosphere.

My two biggest issues. The relatively minor, but annoying.
First, for most things other than fries there's an upcharge, about three bucks. But they don't tell you that typically, even when you ask
The other problem is they have begun charging a credit card surcharge. They are required by law to post notice of that, prominently displayed, and to let you know about it. But they don't do it.
Those two things are off putting.
Overall, though, reasonably good place.

Thanks and enjoy“

“Food is great and so are the drinks“

“Had to travel an hour to get to Costco for the last 12 Montepulciano wine in the state! Then we stopped at The Coach Grill on the way home and I had the absolute best corned Beef Sandwich I have ever had anywhere! The Burgers were prime meat and delicious! Best ever! Will not miss this Burger and a Beer Resteraunt next trip to Madison Hts!!!!“

“Great food , large portions, been there 1/2 dozen times , top notch!!“

“Game Day at CJ Mahoney's
With no way to catch the big game at home, CJ Mahoney's was the perfect destination. Nestled in a cozy booth, we had our own personal TV, the perfect setup for an immersive viewing experience.

We kicked off the game with a classic Supreme Pizza, a cheesy, saucy delight topped with a colorful array of ingredients. While she sipped on a couple of refreshing 7 and 7's, I opted for a crisp Diet Coke. Later, we indulged in a flavorful cheese Quesadilla, a cheesy, crispy treat that hit the spot.

Despite the packed house, the staff handled the crowd with impressive efficiency. They were friendly, attentive, and kept our drinks flowing.

CJ Mahoney's has become our go-to spot for game day. The combination of great food, friendly service, and a lively atmosphere makes it a winner in our book.“

“Took our first trip to this place just last night. Has a little bit of everything for those not looking to stay seated during dinner. Food took forever though and was decent. Waitress was a little lost with constantly asking our table of 6 what they ordered and whose drink went with whose order. Other than that the atmosphere was pretty cool. We played some cornhole, which was decently priced by the hour ($10). Plus they had classic arcade games, free to play like Ms Pac Man, Galaga, Frogger, and Donkey Kong along with 90’s classics like Mortal Kombat, NFL Blitz and House of the Dead. Plus over a dozen pinballs. Arcade area was a sight to see since most places now use carnival or ticket games. They also had a poker room which was full. Did not see any pool tables, darts or disc golf so not sure if those get removed during poker night. I’d consider coming back but not during their busier times. It was more than half capacity but id imagine an even further delay on food or your wait staff being really lost handling more than 20 orders at multiple tables. Either way I’d recommend it as long as you aren’t really hungry going in or don’t like huge crowds.“

“I moved to SCS 5 months ago and have never been here before. My family and I have tried carryout from several restaurants and we always end up with Gilbert’s. Great food, service & prices. I had my daughters 1st birthday in their banquet room yesterday and I’m over the moon happy with how it turned out! The staff was super helpful and always around when I needed anything. The food was great, my guests raved about the pizza and spinach dip. I would book events here in the future without a doubt. Look no further for a great American cuisine menu and staff that makes you feel like family!“

“Great food! Great atmosphere! Nena is always the best server! Always fun playing board games on Tuesday.“

“Our Son’s wedding was at the hall tonight. First let me tell you the food was amazing! Our family received so many positive comments about the food. It was refreshing! We had the Salmon and the Beef Short Ribs Asparagus and potatoes. Do not hesitate to book your event here! Such a great time!!“

“We just left from my engagement party and I couldn’t even wait to leave a review because it was so phenomenal. Chris, his kitchen crew, Nikki the manager and John our server went above and beyond today with an unforgettable experience for me, my fiancé and our family to celebrate our engagement. Words cannot describe how thankful I am for these amazing and incredible individuals. Our food was absolutely delicious and so flavorful, drinks were on spot and their hospitality was excellent. We had chicken, pasta salad, Mac and cheese, pretzel bites and meatballs I recommend every single one of these items. PHENOMENAL. There was never a moment they were not around if we needed anything and were so quick to return. (VERY attentive) This was all of our first times here and we will definitely be coming back for regular lunch or dinner service or for future events. Thank you CK Diggs Staff for an unforgettable night!!!! 100/10!!“

“Delicious food and excellent selection of Michigan draft beers. Great atmosphere as well.“

“🙂👍 Liz, Ashley, and Buck do a great job!“

“Got the turkey chops and lobster tail dinner and ate it on the way home. Food didn’t even make it home. Delicious!“

“First of all Hayden was the best server we’ve ever had in our entire life and I should know because I’ve been to a lot of restaurants. Not only did he have amazing recommendations of the menu and drinks but he was genuinely a pleasure to be around. Honorable mention for the Lincoln Logs appetizer, the most delicious appetizer ever.“

“Great place to wind down at the end of a long day. The wait staff is top notch!“

“My favorite place to sing a song and enjoy randoms that are kind. This bar is kind of a dive but not really. You will drive passed it and think it’s a biker bar, but it’s not. It’s very chill and I’ve never had a bad experience here. Come here and chill.“

“Great meal! Great service! Lisa & team were awesome!“

“Fun place to meet friends“

“Over 5 stars recommend!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The atmosphere, staff, and food was all phenomenal at Whiskey Rae's! The smell, taste and love in the food. It's gourmet homemade food with a twist 🤌 Much respect and appreciation for the Chef Drew. Excellent hospitality and service from our down to earth server Isla!“

“Stopped in after a long day on the road to meet a brother. Waiter was unlike anyone I had before. Great service, and the wings were very flavorful! I may next time ask to have them double dropped, but they were very good! Fries were not normal bar fries and good as well. Will definitely add as a ride stop and bring the family! Definitely impressed me!

Kid-friendliness: Many kids were in with their parents.“
