29 Best Sports Bars near Malvern

“I have been coming to PJW’s in Malvern essentially since it opened, often with long breaks in between visits when I am out of town. But no matter when I roll in, I am remembered and greeted warmly and enthusiastically by everyone on staff there, a-la Norm from “Cheers”! Often flying solo, I mostly sit at the bar, where the fantastic staff takes care of me with phenomenal warmth and humor each and every time. Rachel is the hardest working person whom I have ever beheld in any industry, multitasking flawlessly without ever breaking her smile and composure! Julianna, one of my favorite people encountered anywhere, personifies fun and friendliness, and I once witnessed her handle two separate wedding parties who rolled in without reservations stampede into the bar and all try to order. Served with aplomb; it was remarkable. Alyssa makes college football Saturdays wonderful for alums of far flung schools, and Emma and Shay keep great conversation flowing with the libations. The menu has reduced in size since the days of Covid, but what remains is delicious and dependable. If you are a salmon fan, you are going to love it here, and if you are an aficionado of smash burgers, get your snaps in! Good stuff! Management is great; they care about the patrons and also about the staff. Everyone seems happy and enthused at all times, day or night, and that makes for a special, relaxing, welcoming environment, for a ball game, a burger, or some booze. Great job, all of you!“

“The food was amazing! Customer Service was STELLAR! This is a DEFINITE favorite. Classic cheese steak, sweet potato fries, shrimp tacos, and crab (be sure to specify crab MEAT) fries. Sports atmosphere. Family-friendly. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED; 20/10.“

“Fun environment, nice crowd“

“I ordered lunch for my family, for take out. One item was loaded potato puffs. They came with a very small drizzle of sour cream and a few small pieces of bacon. most were dry and plain. Very frustrating as this was my husbands only food he ordered and will be eating 😔“

“My daughter attends Cheyney University so we stopped for lunch at this Applebee's location. Had the Southwestern Chicken Bowl. It was awesome. The chicken was juicy and the rice was fluffy. The salsa, fresh. The chimichurri is for real heat lovers. It's spicy, real spicy. I loved it. I recommend it.... if you're brave“

“We had snack wings and adult beverages. Atmosphere was conducive to college football.“

“Not my best visit here, the waitress was completely disinterested in my dining experience, long gaps between check-ins, never brought me napkins for my crab and speaking of my crab, it was missing a claw, I guess someone in the kitchen needed a snack.“

“Underrated food absolutely - good prices, not super greasy, and great portions! I'm more of a fries girl and I tell you the homemade chips are incredible!

Also! Karaoke on Fridays with Troy and the lovely bartenders is the best in the area - really wish they did karaoke more often!

I'm new to the area and miss Philly, and this place hits“

“We happened upon this place from an on-line search. If you dine here, you won't be disappointed!!!!. One of our party has celiac disease and the chef came out to personally discuss her preferences. A couple of us ordered the tuna. It was perfectly cooked. Another had the Lobster Risotto, with an ample portion of lobster. Our server was top notch. We would return in a New York minute.“

“Tasty brews. Daily events. Music.“

“Went in early Saturday night with a larger group of friends. They directed us to the small bar on the right of the entrance and we had a fantastic time. The service was great, our bartender was friendly and efficient. The drinks were DELICIOUS! My friends commented it was one of the best espresso martinis they’ve ever had!“

“The people who work there are great! Did I say, "Great?" I mean "GREAT!!!" Let me tell you why...Yesterday, 6/17/2024 ~6:30 p.mish, My order came up to $27 and some change, but I only had $26.29 left in my account. 😭 The young lady behind the counter donated $2.00 to my tab from her own pocket! I am forever grateful to her for that!!!“

“We hosted our son's high school graduation party here and we could not have been happier!! Mike and his team are attentive, flexible and easy to work with! The staff was amazing, food was great and the room with games perfect! Our friends all had a great time and we received many compliments! We highly recommend Midtown Social for your next event!“

“Great place to go for a night out - the few times I've been here they've had a DJ and a small dance area with other options on the floor (shuffleboard and video games). The space is spread out so never seems packed enough to be uncomfortable. Bar serves great mixed drinks and a nice selection of beer on tap.“

“Place was outstanding- even though we showed up an hour before closing time we were treated with respect and courtesy by our server diamond! She was excellent (give this women a raise Applebees she’s a valuable asset) food and speed was absolutely outstanding! Never felt rushed and kept the food coming along with the check all in the appropriate fashion! Overall this Applebees ranks in my top 3 all time for their Food (SUPERB) their Waitress diamond (also SUPERB) and the well kept overall appearance of the store! 5 star experience and recommend anyone going to Applebees go after 9pm as the appetizers are all half price and Just everything you expect lol - ty for a outstanding experience Applebees 5 star establishment 💯“
