50 Best Sports Bars near Lakewood

“What a great place! My wife's been here several times before but this was my first chance to join her. I love the space and the concept, and the owner was super friendly and answered my many questions about the business and the beer.
One thing that pleasantly surprised me was that there were several beers that I would have never ordered normally, but since it was by the ounce I was able to do a lot of sampling and found that I enjoyed a couple more than I would have guessed. Great place to expand your beer palate!“

“Friendly staff- extremely lovely people work there. Been attending this pub on and off for many years whenever I'm in town and I am never disappointed. Nice, low-key, laid-back atmosphere (in a GOOD way), digital jukebox (us lazy tipsy people can play songs right from our phones if we so wish- plus, who carries cash anymore?), decent variety of beers on tap and did I say the staff rules? They're great. It's my go-to spot whenever I'm in town.“

“Great place with good food.“

“Walked in. Ordered a shot and was wrongly blamed for bad reviews online and told I wasn't welcome there. So, here's my first review: great food. Excellent really. Wings are to die for! Otherwise, it's okay. Would appreciate not being blamed for whatever issues they're having. Seems a little overly obsessive and weird, especially considering I rarely come here. Want some wings? Hit 'em up! I look forward to being blamed for whatever customer service issues they're having in the future! It takes a lot to piss off a pothead, but you guys made an enemy for sure. Please ignore the personal compliments to the Chef that I've had in person as well as copious, authentic niceties and encouraging conversations given to the bartenders and staff over the past year. I just wanted some sweet chili wings and a shot, but you guys are a little weirdly, obsessive and frankly it's offensive. Don't forget to print this review off as well and past it around to the staff as you did previously instead of just asking me and giving me the benefit of the doubt!“

“Ryan is AMAZING! he makes the best drinks and is always here and always working so hard. I'm always so happy when he's our bartender :)He works bar and kitchen which is super impressive. Get his food and drinks. You won't be “

“The atmosphere is great, the selection is great and so was everyone there. The brisket, ribs, the pulled pork and the smoked turkey were all delicious. The brisket nachos were awesome as well. Definitely looking forward to going back.“

“We had a great time, good service and good food! Our kids didn't like the chicken nuggets bc they were sweet but their kids and goofy 😹 the cocktails were great! Fun atmosphere. Also family friendly. I was pleasantly surprised to see a diaper change area that had wipes and diapers. There were also menstrual products. It was such a thoughtful touch!“

“Place is fun, great food and great prices. We love it!!!!!“

“Ate at The Third Place while visiting my mom during Thanksgiving. Had the Sunday special, the Meatball Casserole. It was delicious with lots of cheese and sauce to dip the garlic bread in. Also had a side salad. I recommend spending the extra $2.50 and getting the salad topped with fresh mozzarella. Yum! I wish I remembered the servers name. It began with a J. She did a good job and was friendly.“

“Burger, fish sandwich, salad, broccolini, and tots all shared with my wife tonight while seated at the bar. Special shout out to our barman Ray, who we're getting to know here. He's as affable and attentive as any in Rocky River. Cheers!“

“I had a wonderful time!! Our waitress Codi was truly a amazing person! She made me feel very comfortable and welcomed! The overall experience was friendly!! She was very attentive, checked on us at right times and made me (and my new husband) at home!!! Thank you!!“

“The food was good but our drinks took longer to get than our food. Cool“

“Hands down our favorite place while visiting this area . My husband said it was so good he’d drive the 6 hours just to eat here again. I asked for something prepared a little differently due to an illness and the chef came out to chat with us to make sure! The way he prepared it was perfect! Everyone loved the meals and left overs!“

“Good food great service. Friendly Had rough day and felt at home“

“MBAG (Mike's Bar and Grill) is a great spot for some good drinks and food. It can be pretty busy inside depending on when you get there. Also, be aware that the owner is trying to correct the kitchen time on Google, but the kitchen closes at 9p, not 10p throughout the whole week! I usually get the chicken parm sandwich (which is stellar!) but tried the august porkbelly blt taco special. It was honesty very underwhelming. I subbed regular mayo for the Sriracha, but the real issue was the micro sliver of meat. I could barely taste. And I'm saying it was like a quarter piece of bacon but pork belly instead. Anyways, the other food at the table was delicious (except the fresh cut fries were a tad undercooked). Only other thing to mention is that the patio is lovely! But, if you get seated at a high top under the umbrellas, and it gets dark, there are no lights. And it's pretty dark, to the point where it's hard to see your meal. Service was very good, very friendly! Great place and definitely frequent a couple times a month.“

“I was invited to a music gig on a Sunday several weeks ago and have stopped several times since. It's a great place and bike riding distance from my home. Each time I've met new friends and owner and bar are authentice and unique! The music presented is such a gift.“

“We travelled to Cleveland for soccer weekend and were looking for something to do with 20 teen boys! This place hit the mark! They had trays of food waiting on our arrival and the boys had a blast playing shuffleboard. Highly recommend.“

“This jawn fire. Locals spot away from the tourist trap of downtown.“

“Your average local sports bar/pub with like minded food. The food was good, but we waited forever to get it so we got cold grub. Sat outside because it was a nice night, but the service was non existent, and unfortunately there were two guys smoking cigars near us that nobody seemed to want to do anything about, lol...“

“I got a Philly Cheesesteak. As you can see, it looked delicious and fortunately it tasted just as good! The atmosphere was decent, and the food was great. At an affordable price as well! I'll definitely be stopping back by for some good food and a nice time. The draft beer went down great according to my buddy. I don't drink.“

“Thank you again for everything you did for us, for my dad’s service! You guys rock! We will see you shortly!“

“Met friends at the Clevelander prior to the Cleveland Guardians game and had a great time! Food was really good and the service was fast an friendly. Definitely recommend!!“

“I went twice here for dinner one on a Friday and one time for dinner the next day! while visiting Cleveland from Kent first time I went I got burger and tots second time was salmon dinner and for both times I got the server Jordan she did an amazing job and since I work at a restaurant myself it was neat talking and exchanging experiences of what’s it’s like working in the restaurants and I think when you meet other restaurant workers you can relate to one another. The food was great server did an outstanding job. The second time when the hostess’s was going to seat me I saw Jordan as they were going to seat me and requested her and she was like ya I can take you cause I rather have a server who I know does a good job at there job and who has a good personality and that’s what makes a restaurant and a great server I definitely recommend this restaurant!“

“Every single time I come in here I have an awesome time. The food is usually amazing. Especially their pizza. You can never go wrong with their fresh cut fries either!! My bartender tonight was Carrie and she was a delight. She was helpful, delivered fast service, and was very attentive. 10/10 thank you pitstop for another great night!“

“If i could leave 7 Stars i would, best pierogies in the world paprikash is legendary“

“If you want a wide selection of beers that are all over the map this is the place for you. I've been here twice and both times I've found some crazy brews that were off the beaten track. I like the vibe but my girlfriend thought it was divey and smelled like piss so maybe leave your woman at home! “

“Great atmosphere! Friendly. Awesome fresh food.“

“Love this place and everyone in it! 🙂“

“The patio is pet friendly and great food. The staff is always kind.“

“Classic family-owned, city lanes. Eight lanes place is nostalgic but in great shape. No overhead monitors. No fancy scoring. Brush up on scoring on paper. You've got to count the pins the remaining ftom where you stand. Staff/family and other bowlers are helpful, courteous, and as entertaining as the lanes themselves. Very affordable. Call first as it might be league night. Were going back.“

“Awesome food and awesome service“

“Back, better than ever!!! New floor, new paint..looks great �“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ drinks, food and vibes“

“Cosy Sports Bar sat at the back of Woodland Lake Lodges Park. Lots of screens and a variety of drinks and food. Nice cold pint of Guiness in 30 degrees sunshine! 🍺😎🍕🍔🍟⚽️🏉🥅“

“Worst service I’ve ever had at a bar“

“Great food and drinks! And everyone is very friendly!“

“All you can eat fries with your meal the first order was hot and fresh.
The second order took forever to arrive at our table and when they did finally arrive they were cold as ice.
This could be because our server was distracted constantly by talking to her coworkers they were all just standing around either talking amongst themselves or playing on their cellphones.“

“Food was delicious and they're super attentive. My entire family had a lunch buffet set up for after a funeral. At least 150 people were accommodated and well looked after. Their outside patio and half out bar were both so nice and spacious as well. Will definitely be coming back on some date nights!“

“The food and atmosphere was Great!!“

“Love this place. Def recommend going here for a quick bite or for the energy. Owners are amazing as well as the entire staff ! 🙂“

“Great“

“If only I live closer when I come in the Cleveland next time, I’ll plan on stopping by. I’ve heard nothing but good things about this place. It’s really awesome.“

“Quiet little suburb dive bar thats been around for years and definitely shows. Large beverage selection with friendly bartenders and staff. Summertime this place really picks up with its sand volleyball courts and outside bar/patio. Great spot for fundraisers or events due to it large dining space and stage area. Killer Karaoke crowd on the weekends shows off some serious local talent. Stop by and enjoy a cold one.

Vegetarian options: Two words: French Fries

Parking: Plenty of parking especially after 6pm

Kid-friendliness: Kids can play on volleyball court and eat chicken tendies.

Wheelchair accessibility: First floor joint with several entrances/exits. No stairs in sight.“

“volleyball tournament host. no pets allowed“

“August 22nd stopped for lunch with a friend I hadn't seen since covid and was treated very rudely by the bartender who was not at all busy. This is the first time I have ever felt this way in here. Most of the bartenders are very friendly“

“This place was amazing the bartenders the bartenders were completely amazing so polite so nice we had burgers they were amazing ordered them medium rare and came out medium rare with onion rings on the side overall nice place nice atmosphere as far as I can tell decent people“
