25 Best Sports Bars near Alcoa

“Today I looked to see who had the best burger and this showed up. So we decided to try it out. We gotta say they have the best nacho appetizer we ever had. They made it like it should be. Then I had the steak burger and he had the all American burger, great food. I have to add the server Laurie was great. She was friendly and very accommodating. Anything we asked for she got it right away. Took time to talk to us and a great server. We definitely found a new place to go to. Thank you so much. 10+ all the way around. Thank you Laurie we will be back.“

“My 13 year old son and I stopped in for dinner tonight. Stephany was amazing! Very tentative, offered great food and drink recommendations, and even in the midst of chaos, she kept a smile in her face. She was even able to get my tired, grumpy son to crack a smile.
Thank you Stephany for signing my son's hat also!“

“Well, they got a new chicken sandwich out and according to the picture I took it’s pretty freaking big. My stepfather and I enjoyed a lunch at Applebee’s. The food came out warm and of course there was the all factor which you don’t ever get anymore so thank you for that. You should definitely try the new chicken sandwich..“

“It was our first visit today. I had a beautiful cobb salad with maple sugar bacon, fried chicken, avocado. So good. My husband had a caesar salad and 1/2 flatbread pizza. The 1/2 size was large. Loved it. We will be back - will bring friends.“

“Very friendly atmosphere a good place to go for a cold beer 🍺“

“I had such a great experience at this Buffalo Wild Wings! Our server BRANDON!! Was attentive, friendly, and really went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He checked in often without being overbearing, made great recommendations, and had such a positive attitude the whole time. You can tell he genuinely cares about his customers and enjoys what he does. It made the visit way more enjoyable, and I’ll definitely be coming back because of the excellent service!“

“Update: Still the best place in Knoxville to hangout with an excellent menu and great food. The Oasis burger was great and delicious, pictured. It is a nice big burger and real tater fries. Paul's never disappoints.

Excellent!!“

“Usually Applebee's is a 5/5, but apparently not on Sundays. We have been going to Applebee's since I was a child. Ben, is the best bartender, hands down. When he is there, even when they are short staffed, the service, the atmosphere, and the experience is topnotch. The last few times I've been there on his day off shows me that the right person at the center is very important.“

“We love this restaurant!!! Outstanding service, huge portions, and the food tastes great!! Last night we had Austin as our server. He crushed it!! He answered all of our menu questions and made sure we were happy during our visit. Definitely going back again.“

“Shout out to the bartender, Tara. You were absolutely phenomenal during our visit! Keep making those amazing White Russians!!“

“Yoooo the bartender Carly at Big Orange is da BOMB. She’s very attentive to her customers and does a great job with getting those drinks out quick even when it’s busy AND she does it with a smile on her face. Makes you feel nice and welcomed.“

“They have the best teriyaki-pineapple wings & lettuce wedge. So fresh! We weren’t a big fan of the gravy on the meatloaf or the salsa on the neyland nachos. We will def be back for more wings and wedge salad!!“

“Service was great, food was delicious and prices are good! Highly recommend!“

“I had this location cater for my daughter’s baby shower and the food was amazing. Everyone kept talking about how great it was. I was super pleased with how it turned out. Great job!! Thank you!!“

“The beer was cold, the people were nice, and the Bearden Hill Cheesesteak Wrap was everything they said it would be: seriously delicious and all they could stuff in that tortilla/wrap! Had to go for the fried okra, and they were great too. Nicely crisp on the outside, perfectly fried, and delicious. I will dine (and probably drink) there again!“

“Karaoke on Thursday’s and drunk chicks? That’s what I am always down for.“

“This is the best Burger I have eaten in 2022….. Cooked Perfect Medium, And the Onion Rings are to Die For…….“

“Justin Wright accommodated 30 former Maryville College basketball players and families on January 25th, 2025. Couldn't have been more pleased with the hospitality and service. Thanks Blue Tick!“

“The absolute best bartenders in town!! Love Hannah and Sarah always getting our drinks as we walk in the door!! The staff is excellent at handling the volume of people especially on Vol game days. Always be our favorite neighborhood place.“

“Really good food, fast and great service from Anna. I'm definitely stopping by on my way back.“

“First time eating at this restaurant, great service, Jose Guzman was our server, very kind, efficient and knowledgeable. The food was really good, great margaritas! Wish they would play Mexican music, would really liven up the place. Mariachi music would be awesome.“

“My 9yo daughter wanted Double Dogs for her birthday. While they told me they don’t take reservations, they said they would do their best to prepare for us. We showed up with 30 people. They got us seated quickly with best accommodations that they could for a large party. The waitress and the manager took great care of us. We didn’t wait long for food or anything. (I will say we picked a Sunday night to avoid some of the crowd). We’ve went plenty of places with this big crowd, but the experience this time at DD was one of the best!“
