50 Best Sports Bars near Little Elm

“Absolutely loved this place! Rodger the owner was in and he introduced himself and he was very friendly. The bartender (not sure of her name; but she’s very sweet) This is definitely going to be my go to when I need to sneak away for an island feeling 🤩“

“Listen... The fried fish basket was GREAT! The DJ was playing all the 90s and early 2000 hits and it brought me back! Everyone was just having a great time. Never had to wait for a drink, very attentive... I would love to see this place stay!“

“My kiddos and I ate at this restaurant last night. Astrid was kind and friendly.

She was helpful as we were deciding what entrees try.
I have to take a moment and thank the young man who was the hostess with the mostess for sure. He was polite, courteous and relatable. Especially to my son. Thank you.

We had a wonderful dining experience.✨“

“Natalie was awesome this afternoon!! She was attentive, personable and professional.“

“My family took me here for Fathers day brunch. Steak and eggs with a bloody Mary. Great was to start the day. Our server Mel was very pleasant and knowledgeable.“

“The best bar I don’t tell my friends about. Great staff, live music, fun games during the week and the food. Best kept secret.“

“We recently visited this restaurant to celebrate my friend’s birthday, and it turned out to be an amazing experience! The food was absolutely awesome — every dish was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. The drinks were also really good and perfectly prepared, which made our celebration even more enjoyable.

A special mention to Kriti, who served us. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure we were comfortable throughout our time there. Her service truly added to the overall experience and made the birthday celebration even more special.

My friends and I had a wonderful time, and we’re so glad we chose this place for such an important occasion. We highly recommend this restaurant to everyone looking for great food, delicious drinks, and excellent service. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Met up with a friend for lunch. Staff couldn't have been nicer and more engaging. Flight of beers is what I'd recommend to then choose a pint you like best.

Beers were good, burger was excellent. Had the pretzel bites as well and enjoyed those.“

“We were fortunate enough to have my Dad’s retirement party here! It was a huge success! Sean was very easy to work with on the planning. It wasn’t complicated and we were in control of the process. We made a normal reservation, he gave us the menu and we were able to put together a budget. No contract, down payment, or minimums. Once we arrived to the venue everything was set-up for the party and the food was delicious. Sarah was the manager we worked with on site. She was so nice and accommodating. Madison and McKenzie were in charge of all of our tables for fifty people. They did not skip a beat with taking care of us I highly recommend for a party, night out, or any occasion. Plus it’s connected to a hotel. My overall impression The Shark Club is a fun and clean atmosphere. The staff was communicative, helpful, and the service was everything I needed and more. Food is amazing as well. Tacos, parmesan tots, and the lettuce wraps were a few of the favorites. Prices were also reasonable. Highly recommend and we will be back!“

“Great place to have dinner or just hangout with friends“

“People who leave a bad review about anything, and the bad reviews that I’ve read about this place I didn’t even see while I was there. My bartender Valerie was amazing super friendly, talkative, and made really good drinks. Exactly what we look for when we go out for drinks. Service was outstanding! And because of that we bought a membership, and will be back. We had fun.“

“Came in to watch the World Cup. Highly recommend the smoked wings because they are perfect! Our waitress, Mandi, did an amazing job! Appreciate her attention to detail and checking on us in a timely manner. She is a 10 out of 10! Minyon is an amazing human too! He greets everyone with the best smile!“

“I didn't get a chance to try any food off the menu so I didn't rate. Otherwise, I went for a dart tournament and there was plenty of dart boards and on the other side of the bar there was plenty of pool tables available. The bartenders/servers were good. They were attentive, friendly and all of my drink orders were correct. Prices were average. I would go back again so next time I may try the food.“

“Highly recommend Local Pint! So good! And the Best owners and staff!! Go support this awesome small business!“

“Great selection of draft beer, great food, great seating, upscale atmosphere, and the largest TV in Frisco.“

“Went in for a short bit drank one beer and someone paid for it. A great establishment and nice it doesn’t smell like cigarettes. Great job legends and whoever paid for my beer thank you!!“

“Went with friends for karaoke and had a blast!“

“The Chilli was just spiced right“

“Where do I begin mane..wings were tight..women tighter. Gotta be smooth with your fine waitress or else her co workers will block you out like a tight end. Beer so cold you’ll feel like a tight end catching a TD. No audibles, no penalties, no onside kicks..only tight ends. Just try not to bust through your denim boi. No stank here mane 💯“

“This is a great laid-back bar. Some nights have more diversity than others, but I like it. DJ could be improved. Tempo needs to be pretty consistent no matter genre. Music would go from upbeat hip hop to slow country back to upbeat pop and down again.

Parking: Attached to Red Roof Inn.“

“First time trying and this will be in our regular rotation. The Bloody Mary deviled eggs were fantastic - get the full order because you will eat all of them, I promise. Turkey club was tasty and so were the truffle parm fries. He got the steak frites and said it was cooked perfectly. Phil took excellent care of us - drinks never empty, great recommendations, and he even got them to change the playlist for me 😂 thanks again Phil! We’ll be back!“

“We enjoy the Sunday night jams! Fun food, drinks, music and singing.“

“McSwiggan’s accepts those of us with Scottish heritage as well, making us feel right at home.“

“Our family loves hanging out at “the dance floor”especially on Friday Movie nights! When we saw the construction going up we were bummed out but what a graceful place this has ended up being! Thanks PGA and Omni!“

“What a great experience with Brandon as our server. He is the man! Brought in my family of 3 last night for the first time. Brandon had great recommendations. Loved sampling the wing sauces first to see what we liked. He was super knowledgeable on beer, and recommended we go with the Sam Adams summer fest- did not steer us wrong.
Brandon recommended a large pizza and wings combo alongside a steak Philly. We loved all of it. Can’t wait to come back soon“

“I was in town visiting family and randomly ended up here. The only reason I’m making this review is to give all love to because Karen (red head with locs) the bartender was really a STARtender. Her energy and ability to get us talking and drinking was unmatched. Felt like she was my 1st cousin lol. She made great recommendations on food which was really good. Overall great experience and hope Karen is still around when we’re back in town.“

“Sidelines Sports Bar is my go-to for games, cold drinks, and great people. Tons of TVs, solid wings, and a staff that actually remembers your name. Bonus: karaoke lights it up every Sunday and Thursday—always a blast. Highly recommend! Best service and best food! Try the Monte Cristo sandwich, better than Bennigans ever was!!!“

“I must stop if you're in the area great little place great crew concerned to make sure that you're getting what you're asking for great atmosphere just all around Great Stop must come in good food just come in and check it out“

“You need to open a location in Denver. I came to Plano for business back in February and found this spot. Loved it and will be coming back down in October just for your butter chicken wings and fries.“

“Had a great experience for a 16th birthday with family! The Staff were amazing and made the whole dinner so much fun. Their food is awesome especially the smoked wings. We will definitely be back!“

“Enjoyed a nice dinner with the family, tried the MVP and added crawfish and chose the Cajun seasoning. It was outstanding!

If you haven't been you should try them out. They have a variety of menu choice and sure you can find something you would like.

Nay was our server and was great...“

“It fun place to go with friends“

“Love the bands. Great atmosphere. However highly disappointed that why we pay for premium tables if 4 many tables had 6 at theirs or more which meant someone got away with not paying ticket prices.“

“e been coming to Saintsbury for a while and always enjoyed the atmosphere, but I really have to say—getting rid of karaoke on Monday nights was a big miss. It was one of the few things that consistently brought in a great crowd and gave regulars something fun to look forward to at the start of the week.

You could tell it was doing well, and a lot of us who came regularly have been pretty disappointed since it was taken away. It added energy to the place and made Mondays feel alive instead of slow.

It would be really nice to see karaoke brought back. I think it would mean a lot to the regulars and help bring that same vibe back again.“

“I've lived in north Dallas for 10 years and havent heard of this place. A friend if mine recommended it and it definitely exceeded expectations! Service and atmosphere is great! Food and menu options are really good too! If you havent been here, its definitely a must.“

“Great atmosphere, food, and service.“

“So happy that Liv and Ashlee are working together today! They are the best team! Always happy and great service! I hate that there schedules got changed though. Great job ladies!“

“Been here maybe 3-4 times now. So far a positive experience each time. Food truck is sooo good! The lady that owns/runs it is friendly and delivers on the food quality! The bartender that’s usually there is friendly and chill. Tons of beers to try and you can build your own flights!“

“My daughter and her friends go to Topgolf The Colony all the time and just had an amazing experience with a gender reveal party. They said the managers and staff were so sweet and the service was amazing.“

“Niki was an absolute standout during our visit! She was friendly, attentive, and kept our drinks full without us having to ask. She gave great recommendations on the wing flavor vampire killer and made sure everything came out as we ordered. Super personable and made the whole experience better. Definitely one of the best servers we’ve had at this location Pluckers. Hope she’s working next time we come in!“

“KJ was incredible!! Very attentive and friendly. Great service and super friendly. We will definitely come back to eat. We had drinks only this time but a great ambiance and friendly staff.“

“Great dive bar. You can smoke inside“

“Amazing staff and management! Will definitely return!“

“First time customer here, my buddy said he knew a better place than Twin Peaks (and love Twin Peaks) and all I could tell him when we arrived, when we were there, and during the ride home, was Thank You!!! Madison was awesome and just as sweet and social as you'd want one of your employees!
As far as the food went...it was wonderful! Fajitas were prepared perfect, and quality was top notch. I will refer others, and will definitely be back! And who ever came up with the restaurants concept.... you're my Hero!!!
Stay Blessed, Brent....“

“Tailgaters has great drink specials daily and the bartenders are fast and friendly. The food has been good as well. The wings and buffalo chicken pizza are my favorites so far. This will make my new rotation of sports bar venues.“

“The best burgers in town, hands down! 🍔🔥 The flavors are incredible, the ingredients are always fresh, and you can really taste the quality in every bite. The service is just as amazing—friendly, fast, and they make you feel right at home. Whether you’re craving a classic burger or something unique, this place never disappoints. Definitely a must-try!“

“This place is a great spot to connect with the community and watch a game. My only detractors are the projector screens and TVs have minor imperfections and color saturation differs from screen to screen. Also I had one of the cocktails on the menu made by each of the 3 bartenders during my visit and every single one was notably different. I would anticipate consistency when it comes to making the same drink. But overall the bar has great energy and all staff was friendly, attentive, and professional. Definitely will be back soon!“

“Came here after my workout with a few guys from our group and everyone super friendly, food was great“

“I stopped by Tailgaters with some friends on a Friday night to shoot pool, enjoy a few beers, and do what friends do best—talk smack while pretending we're better at pool than we actually are.

This location used to be the old dine-in Pizza Hut on the Tollway in Frisco, and wow, what a transformation. The renovation is fantastic. The place looks great, has a fun atmosphere, and plenty of room to hang out.

We played on the tournament tables, which cost a little more, but they're absolutely worth it if you're serious about your pool game (or at least serious about talking about your pool game).

The real stars of the night, though, were the bartenders Bailey and JJ. They were top-shelf—pun intended. Even with the place packed, they remembered our names, knew our drink preferences, and made everyone feel like regulars. Great service can make or break a night out, and these two absolutely made it.

If you're looking for a place to shoot pool, play darts, grab a drink, and laugh with friends while getting beat on the pool table, Tailgaters is the spot.

Bonus tip: Try to go when Bailey and JJ are behind the bar. You'll thank me later.“
