12 Best Sports Bars near Salem

“Love me some Sandlots! I come for the Gumbo, honestly, but I've had a few other things on their menu, and have not been disappointed. I love that they offer a 'Southern' menu, and the corn beef dinner for St Patty's Day is the best in the area, hands down. I have very few critiques about Sandlots (I wish their tartar sauce for the fish fry wasn't sweet)- I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a low key bar/restaurant in the area that serves great food!“

“Been going to bricks for years, love the atmosphere, the food & the staff!!My husband and I very much enjoy going to get dinner here.All of the burgers are delicious, would also recommend the wraps!! Definitely worth making a stop to check it out!Only downfall is that their hours are weird! Sometimes I’m craving a good burger from them and they’re closed. Regardless, out of the local restaurants in spring grove - bricks and ivy tops them!“

“Went here for the first time a few weeks ago the staff and owner were super friendly and welcoming. I decided to go back to eat a few days later with my family all the food was great and we are quite picky!! This will definitely be one of our new go tos whether it be for lunch/dinner or just a quick beer. Very happy we tried it out!Kid-friendliness: Was nice to be able to bring my kids in on a Sunday for lunch and not feel like we were out of place. Kids were happy with the food as well !“

“We love Steve's! Steve and Rita are the best, and so is the bartender Liz! It's one of our favorite places to hang out and play some darts. The backyard in the summer is beautiful, your surrounded by flowers, with a beautiful wooden swing and volleyball court. Definitely should check it out.“

“Happened to be in Antioch with my daughter and stopped in The Lodge for a late lunch. I had one of the best, if not the best chicken wrap with fries. It was wrapped, then heated on the outside, delicious. My daughter had a grilled cheese with tomato with onion rings, she loved it. We were too full to eat desert, but we took a piece of homemade tiramiso with. It was a slice of heaven. Great service and wonderful food“

“Went for the 10 Years show and had a great time. The venue is pretty small, but seemed to have just enough space where we weren't crammed in like sardines. Although it did get quite warm, and had to step out several times to cool down. When we first arrived it was really had to get drinks, but once the show started it was a little easier. I would go see another concert there, maybe go earlier and try the food. #waw #adulting“

“If you can imagine a Wisconsin Supper Club (good food all around) married to a classic sports bar (TVs and good drinks with decent pours) right on a nice-sized lake, you'll get an idea of what Fairmont Shores is like. The first thing that strikes you when you enter is the crowded and noisy large single room with a square bar dominating the center, all with a pleasant welcoming neighborhood feel. This restaurant had unbeatable ambiance: inside with a wall of windows looking out over Fox Lake with the sun setting in the evening, and outside with a lakeside patio deck available when the weather co-operates. We started with cocktails and beer, all nicely brought off - routinely 4 star stuff. For appetizers we tried the Mozzarella Sticks (5 star cheese sticks nicely breaded and done just enough to get the cheese softened) and the Bruschetta (a 4 star offering with a nice baguette with all the toppings and a nice balsamic glaze). For mains, and since we were here on Friday: two of our party had the all-you-can-eat fish fry with a choice of fish (our selection was 4 star stuff, nicely fried white fish); another in our party had the grilled salmon (a nice 3 star offering of salmon - a hair overdone - served with hushpuppies, and fries or a baked potato): and what the last in our party had was probably a wrap (?). Service was on point: they had lots of servers, quick food preparation and delivery from the kitchen, and an active full-service bar. You may want to make reservations so you are not disappointed ... this place gets crowded fast, especially on weekends. And don't forget the standouts here: all-you-can eat Fish Fry Fridays, and Sunday Brunch from Easter to Labor Day. If you are out this way, you have to give this place a try.“

“If you do go you’ll have the best time and service with the woman who always wears crop tops and leggings and the older woman who has platinum blonde hair they are kind fast and amazing the food is always amazing and perfect as well some of the other bartenders are way more interested in talking to their friends than serving but i won’t give less than 5 stars because of the two bartenders and the food“

“There are lots of places to get wings now but this place, at least in northern Lake County, is the best place for them. Service is always good and friendly. Good selection of beers and cocktails too! Highly recommended for a casual meal with friends to enjoy great wings.“

“We celebrated my father's 80th birthday at the pub and we couldn't have been happier with the service, drinks and the food. The staff was very attentive to our needs. I can't thank them enough for making our party such a memorable experience.“

“This is a place we have come for many years now. Almost every time the service is very good and attentive and enjoy the food and the variety offered. Our most recent visit did not disappoint. We were seated immediately on a very busy Saturday. Drinks, food and service was very good. My only caution is for those wanting to hold conversation with others. It is typically loud and not conducive for conversation. That said, it is a fun vibe and highly recommended!“
