Plano Sports Tavern

Much better! The food tonight was delicious, the service was great. I don't know what happened in the kitchen but it's so much better!!! Definitely worth the stop!!

Decided to try this place out last night, and it quickly proved to be somewhere that is very unsafe to go as a woman. While it is a sports bar and I was hoping to watch sports on television, it had the presidential debate on with the sound on instead. No problem, it is a big thing for the country, so that is fine. But when patrons at the bar started yelling at the television, swearing, using slurs and slangs against women, and no one on the staff or management stopping it, that crosses the line.We won't be back.

Came here for bingo night. It was so much fun and the prizes were awesome! I had the chicken and steak fajitas which were really tasty. I also enjoy their nachos. Great service and a fun and energetic atmosphere!

Food is really good. Prompt service. Lots of TVs and content for any sports nut. Wednesdays is bingo night with prizes. Live bands on the weekends.

Well, I been going there on Saturdays and sometimes Fridays. . Never really met the owner or had any interactions but the waitresses are great. The food is OK. Nothing to write home about but it's definitely doable. Well, this past Saturday they had a great band, which is not so common for them, the band with the "Coveralls". And they had a special night so the owner was there, which was surprising. The girls there busted their butts. You couldn't keep up with it and you would've thought as an owner he would've gotten up and helped them, but the only time he got up to help them was maybe pick up some dirty glasses as he walked over the bar to get himself a drink.Every time the shot lady walked by I asked for one and she said there for the owners table.I will give 3 stars because the wait staff is awesome. Next time though get them help when you know a lot of people will be there.

So I have finally got the chance to see what Franchise Bar is really all about. 1st Visit: My first visit was a date night to see what the place was like. Upon entering it was quite loud but football games were on so it was expected. We ordered a small brisket nacho, which was HUGE! We couldn't even eat it all. We also ordered 2-3 of their blue drink special they had that night (might have been a blue margarita) & a couple of fireball shots -- which almost took me out LOL. That was my 1st time having fireball so thank you Franchise for the experience.2nd Visit: I encouraged a friend to check out the bar with me after the movies on a Thursday night. Plus it was 50 cent wing night. We ordered lemon pepper wings which were nice but small IMO & a well drink. A nice cheap meal & strong drink for around $6-7. 3rd Visit: So I decided to head over again for Thursday wing night. I already had it on my mind what to order when the bartender informed they no long did the 50 cent wing night & that the whole menu had changed. OMG! Was my reaction...at that point I wasn't exactly sure if I wanted to stay but I did anyhow. It was also trivia game night so after feasting on some nachos & having a couple of well drinks I was well on my way to losing my 2nd round before I headed out. Will I be back? Maybe just for drinks but the loudness of the bar is quite overwhelming. You can barely even have a conversation with anyone. None of the food on the menu peaks my interest besides the nachos but that's old to me now so I doubt I will be a regular. Overall, I've had some good times there.

Everything was not good at this place. I was getting yelled at by the waitresses walking by the bar because we were standing there talking to our friends when we first got there. Luckily I ate dinner somewhere else because my friends said the food was awful. I got a draft beer and it tasted funny like the keg was off. The bartender stood in the hallway and would not service us, again I was grateful that we ate out before going to this bar.

Great place to meet a new friend. Enjoyable people and good food and drink priced right. Service is impeccable. It feels like the "old" neighborhood bar. Go there.

We went to PST Friday (5/24) to listen to some live music that was supposed to start at 9 PM. After waiting 30 minutes with no live music, I asked the waitress why the band wasn't playing yet. She said it was because the Mavericks game was on and the band wouldn't start until the game was over. It was 10:10 PM before the game was over and the band took the stage. I'd like to know why management felt this was a good decision since no game audio was on, in fact, the jukebox was playing while the game was on. So, if the jukebox music wasn't bothering the few people who were actually watching the game (assuming that that was management's rationale for not allowing the band to play) then why couldn't the band start on time for those of us who came out to enjoy some live music? And we weren't the only ones complaining that the band wasn't playing as we talked with others who came out to hear the live music too. Management should rethink this policy if they want to keep people coming out to hear the bands on the weekend.
