Just an all around dump! Foods horrible! Maybe that's why it's so dark in there so ya can't see your food. Over priced, I could go on for an hr on how icky this place is, just don't go in there, ever!

I don't love - nor hate - the Spar Pole. It's just an alright hole-in-the-wall which I believe is the goal for the owners.However, I would love to see it turn into a true sports bar. They have the space and the foundation. Add more bar stools and high tops; upgrade from rock-hard bar stools to decently comfortable units; there are a few small tvs with glaring bright spots, and a projection screen that is clearly burnt out.Upgrade those tv's and projector. And just one example here: tell the staff to air Thursday night football games instead of senior citizen footcare infomercials. Seriously, have the Kraken, Mariners, and Hawks schedules posted for your staff and make sure the games are turned on before they start.The beer is great here, and reasonably priced. The salads and burgers are top-notch. The $10 dinners (when they are posted) are pretty good. I do wish there were more $5 side dishes to snack on as most of the $11 appetizers seem way overpriced for the Costco freezer food that they are.In a nutshell, this could be a 5-star rating.-Fix the TVs and broadcast sporting events at all times.-Upgrade the bar stools.-Get a few more high top tables.-Add some cheap snacks/sides to the menu.All areas where rival L&M win my business. Fortunately for Spar Pole, the L&M hired some awful bartenders with nasty attitudes so we keep our business at the Spar now.

New to the area , went in for the first time, I have to say it’s a nice place a lot of tvs we ordered about $400.00 in drinks played darts and pool good service.however at the end the waitress came out in the middle of the street and yelled at us NEVER TO COME BACK AGAIN cus we left her a $16.00 tip. Keep in mind we had to go to the bar and get our own drinks and take back the empty’s . All she ever did was bring out the wings and fry’s once. So I guess they rather lose $500 that we spent.

Best daytime hole in the wall bar in the county. Bartenders are always there for you and make Great cocktails. Food is traditional but like anywhere else is grossly overpriced. Not thier fault.

I’d give a zero if I could. I’ve been to this place 3 or 4 times all of which were at least 6 months to a year apart and every time the bartenders and staff are rude or just ignore you if you’re not a regular. If you manage to get a drink then good luck getting a second one without having to wave someone down. All of the 4+ star ratings must be from regulars or family/friends of the staff everyone I know that have been there have been treated the same way.

Fun place fantastic staff, great serviceSuper Bowl Sunday!My friends flew in from Las Vegas, Nv. for several days. It happened to be over Super Bowl Sunday... Obviously Las Vegas is a hard act to follow but the Bartender at the Spar Pole did one hell of a job! Especially with Pool League going on during the game.. ??To the Bartender and the staff on Super Bowl Sunday. My friends and I enjoyed ourselfs very much.

I came to shoot pool for APA pool league. The tables need a facelift and better balancing. The table roll is absurd.And the drinks are very carefully measured. Dont want to give the patrons more liquor than fits in the jigger.I wouldn't suggest coming here.
