This review isn't just about the food or the atmosphere at Champps in Eden Prairie, it's about the service delivered by one incredible person: Kevale, the bartender.
I can confidently say Kevale is, without a doubt, the greatest bartender I have ever encountered. The level of professionalism and attentiveness he provides is staggering. He is a master of his craft, but more importantly, he possesses the rare ability to manage a busy bar while simultaneously making every single guest feel seen and immediately taken care of.
The true measure of his excellence is this: I don't live nearby, but I travel specifically to this location because I know Kevale works here. I will never hesitate to drive out of my way because I know he will never let you down or leave you hanging, whether you need a quick refill, a recommendation, or just a friendly face. His consistent reliability is why I am loyal.
Kevale is an enormous asset to the Eden Prairie Champps, and management needs to take note. This man absolutely deserves a significant raise. His presence elevates the entire experience, turning a standard sports bar into a destination. Thank you, Kevale, for being the best!

It's been long time since I've been to Champps. I won't wait as long to go back next time. Their French fries were delicious!

Meet up with a friend for drinks. We sat at the bar and the drinks were good, staff attentive and vibes all good. Would go again.

The soup and salad were good. The loaded potatoe soup was average at best. The cesar sald was a balanced combination of greens and dressing. The original Philly cheesesteak was slightly above average (if you don't live or acustum to authentic Philadelphia cheesesteaks. Service was wonderful, and the atmosphere was what you would expect from a franchise. The cheesesteak bun could have been toasted more and and the beef was lacking a bit of seasoning. I recommend having the chipotle aioli on the side for a more authentic cheesesteak experience. The French fries were blassay. Will come come back for a football game but not necessarily a date night destination.

Say Hi to Chet, drew, kev, Nina, and Martha for me next time you stop by!!!
I was skeptical after walking in and tables were dirty. Menus were sticky and after ordering the food, all three of my family members meals were absolutely disgusting. I could’ve went and got fast food and put it on their plate and presented it and would have been 10 times better than what they served, not like champs used to be many years ago

Mid but good. Seems like they stick to the script and I’m sure they’ll stay in business. They have so much potential though, they could really bring it to the next level if they wanted to.

This modern sports bar is a nice spot, but it's a bit pricey for what you get. Five of us ate there, and the bill was a bit of a shock. We all thought the food was good, not great, but it was well-presented. Our server was friendly and attentive. Overall, it's a decent place, but I'd probably give it 3.5 stars if that was an option.
