Drink specials on Saturday/ Sunday. They have an extensive drink menu. SummaryOur son's fav sports bar ( changed name a few months ago) and now we know why. Great location, outstanding service, extensive menu! Plus the tv's!! Love it!!

This location has changed ownership for the fourth time in the last 10 years it seemed. Most recently it was Jakes Gameday but now is called Tailgaters. My review is for Tailgaters in January 2025.I went for lunch with my brother in-law. The inside has not changed much except some tables along the windows were turned into booths. The menu still offered a "Jake's hamburger."We both got the lunch special--burger, fries, salad for $8.99. The price was good. The fries were very crispy and hot. Good fries. The burger was just barely warm. It was too small for the bun and was dwarfed by the huge slice of onion and tomato. The garden salad was good and the vinegrette was tasty.Service was good. 3 stars are for a barely warm burger. At noon, there was only one other customer besides us, so I am not sure if this iteration will make it. They do appear to have a lot of happy hour and weekday drink specials so maybe that is what draws the crowds.

Went to Jake's twice in this location. Great tasting food and great service from staff.

They have switched from the Jakes concept to Tailgaters. The chili cheese fries are gone, the burgers are not as good, it's a shame to ruin such a great restaurant. It was dead when we came for football today, after eating here I see why.

We needed to find a cool place to watch the end of the rangers game. This place exceeded expectations!!!Mariah was a phenomenal waitress. She let us know the best things to order. She was there to make sure we were happy without being annoying. She made GREAT food recommendations.The Philly steak quesadillas are incredible!!! We HIGHLY recommend them The cheesy chili tater tots were yummy. And our friend enjoyed the blue cheese chips.

Good service, good food, ok Happy Hour. I am sharing their Happy Hour and Daily Specials since no one else has and they don't have them online. The restrooms are very clean...even though the toilet paper is almost on the floor lol.

When I noticed the ingredients in the Jake's Burger, including Thousand Island dressing, it reminded me of a Big Mac, and I was skeptical about the high ratings on Uber. However, I decided to give it a try. Surprisingly, it turned out to be the ultimate Big Mac experience. I ordered a double cheeseburger expecting it to steal the show, but the Jake Burger surpassed all expectations. It might just be the best burger I've had in the past 4 or 5 months. The worst thing about the burger was that the lady from Uber got lost and added 20 minutes to the commute and the food was cold.

This is a great little hot spot to go in Lake Highlands. They have delicious food and service is not only attentive but personable. Nicole is an amazing waitor!! Also, Jakes Game Day is very family friendly but provides the other amenities for adults (like lots of TVs to watch sports).

We had a great time here for our HOA social event. The appetizers were delicious and Thomas provided amazing service!

The men's restroom has clearly not been cleaned in days or maybe weeks. The mirror was cleaned off but everything was covered in a layer of grime and filth. The kind that takes a long time to accumulate.The server was really nice, but man they need to clean the men's room
