Russwood Park Sports Bar & Grill

The lights were on dim at 6 in morning and so I came in and asked if it was open yet. She snapped "what do you want?!" So I took that as a yes? I ordered an everything bagel but they only had 2 of the 4 diff types of bagel that they usually offer. Usually they have everything, plain, blue berry or raisin , and sesame but today plain and raisin so I went with plain. Not only did she cut it in three pieces, she was horrible. I ordered a large vanilla latte and when she brought it out it was filled half way I kid you not!!! So I asked her if she could fill it up and she mumbled something so I said "excuse me??? And she kind of changed her tone and said "suuuuure, I'll open a new skim milk just for you" so she turns around and mumbles something to the customer next to her and he starts laughing so hard and he says "let me get out of here before gongs get ugly" When she filled it up I said thank you and she didn't say anything. Oh man I've never been treated so poorly. All I wanted was a bagel and a coffee, not to be treated bad. I'll take my money else where next time. Don't recommend this place to the most desperate person.

Russwood Park Sports Bar & Grill IS the place to root for your favorite NFL team(s) if you are staying in downtown Memphis! Every NFL game is playing - with sound - on TVs strategically placed throughout the bar and restaurant. My husband was in heaven because, at his request, they graciously played the Niners game on a large screen in one of the dining rooms with comfy chairs. The sound and AC were cranked up high for him and the others that joined us!They have access to (and show) every game being broadcast, and they are open on Sundays before noon (plenty of time to get settled in before kick off). The food is really very good (including dessert!) Service is excellent; everyone is super friendly. Location couldn't be better - especially if you are staying at The Peabody, it is directly across the street! Russwood Park is well-decorated and quite clean. Another big plus for us is that inside is nonsmoking.Yeah, it's missing the local flavor, so go have a pregame beer at the sports bar on Beale St., then head over to Russwood Park to eat (and drink) while watching (and hearing) the game in comfort!

As far as hotel restaurants this place is ok. Several decent sized TVs but most are small and can only be clearly seen from a few seats. I certainly would not come here to watch a game unless no other place is carrying it, or you are in the hotel. Only 3 beers on tap. Boston lager, blue moon, and yuengling. I imagine they rotate, but not sure. Standard domestic bottle selection, maybe a few others mixed in buy I couldn't really tell. Food wise I had a salad, so I cannot speak to the rest of the menu. Chicken on salad was great. Lettuce was fairly standard, decently crisp and cool. Caesar dressing was thick, so I suggest getting it on the side. Very good though. Service was ok. Only 2 working. One seemed to not care at all and spent most of the time "cleaning" tables. The other, I'm sorry I forgot the name, was very nice and friendly. I did sit at a table first and both walked by without saying a word, but then the bar cleared so I moved.Basically, if you are staying in the area and don't feel like venturing too far this is a great place. I would also highly suggest it if you are looking for a quick meal before going to a redbirds game, as the stadium is literally next door. No real complaints on my end.

Horrible service and food! One lady working the whole bar. Wasn't going out of her way for nobody!

I would give service 4 stars because the waitstaff found the football game that my husband wanted to watch. I would give the food 3 1/2 stars. I ordered chicken sliders, onion rings, and side salad. All good. My husband ordered club sandwich and fries. All good.
