The Salty Dog Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 4.3 (355) • $$

"The wings was so delicious, I only dipped maybe 3-4 in the ranch sauce and that was it. I felt the ranch was robbing the wings of their unbelievable flavor. The nachos...I was extremely disappointed. I paid however much I paid for the nachos and was disappointed in the end. My disappointment was that I couldn't finish them!! I read a review that said if you order the nachos, don't order anything else. But I'm a big boy so I ordered wings to go with my nachos and yeah, I barely finished half. It's an extremely generous serving and was delicious. I forgot to mention I didn't want sour cream but thankfully the staff didn't put the sour cream on my nachos, it was served on the side in a little cup. I really appreciated that. They did have a bar you could go sit at, looks like a really nice place. I definitely look forward to stopping by again next time I'm in town. One last thing, I'm very big on leaving tips to those who work in restaurants. In a society that suddenly has become "tip hungry", it's those in the restaurant industry who are affected the most. A guy helps an old lady cross the street then ask her if she'll like to give him a tip. It's ridiculous. But it's those in food service who don't ask for a tip, despite that being more than 50% of their pay. I ordered my food online and intentionally didn't leave a tip because I was planning on giving a cash tip when I picked my food up. I went into the restaurant to pickup my food and forgot about the cash in my pocket. I returned to the truck stop and drove away. 200 miles later, I realized what I did and felt horrible. To the staff who prepared me an absolute amazing meal, I sincerely apologize for forgetting to leave that cash tip."

"We have visited after church a couple of Sundays in a row now. Huge shoutout to the friendly service. The food is enough variety for our pescatarian friends and for our meat eaters. The house soup and homemade Alfredo sauce is delicious. My last visit I had the antipasto salad- which was the perfect portion. Definitely will eat here regularly."

Ray's Original Buffalo Wings

★★★★☆ 3.6 (195) • $$

"Are you kidding me? Buffalo-style pizza (just about), Buffalo-style wings (almost), and BILLS-BILLS-BILLS!!!What's not to love??? Casual place in Turner Park. Not the comfiest seating (just bring your stadium seat and pretend you're at the game), but the servers are friendly and the team spirit is strong!!"

Let It Fly Sports Bar

★★★★☆ 3.9 (130) • $$

"Went here with a group of 4 before a concert and I was impressed! The place was crowded and the atmosphere was just lively to be in. Everything we got tasted amazing, but my favorite would probably be the pizza. They burnt our pizza & kindly made us a new one AND they took it off our tab! I would also recommend the garlic teriyaki for the wings over the chipotle honey. Our food came out in a decent manner, however our waitress would forget about our drinks/condiments when asked, but it was probably because of how busy the place was. The crispy mozzarella had a nice cheese pull after taking the first bite and the onion rings came out crispy too. My least favorite was the onion rings, but it was still good!!"

The Good Life Sports Bar and Grill

★★★★☆ 3.5 (160) • $$

"Good service and waiter was very attentive. Went around 4 on a Sunday and it was decently busy. Noise level was mid and the drinks we ordered didn't take long at all! We only got an appetizer and it was alright! I would come back to try more on the menu!"

Beyond Golf Bar + Kitchen

"fun place to go to. good food options to snack on. i've been many times and always had a good experience!"

Union Pizzeria & Sports Bar

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (136) • $$

"Food is excellent. Service is exceptional. Ambiance is perfect! Prices are very reasonable and their specials are unbelievable."

Ice House

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (97) • $$

"Probably should almost be a 4 star review. Huge bar with lots of TV's for sure. We tried the thin crust cheese pizza and the regular crust. Surprisingly we preferred the regular crust. The pizza isn't anything out of this world it's just basic but good with a good tomato taste as well.Since we were eating so healthy (haha) decided to try the plate of bacon for an appetizer mostly because I've never seen a plate of bacon as an app before. It was okay. Honestly would pass next time though as I prefer my bacon crunch. This was mostly chewy but crisp on some ends but over crisp burnt taste. Probably a good thing I didn't love it!Nice patio with a few smaller TV's. look forward to sitting out there in some good weather."

Legends Patio Grill & Bar

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (112) • $$

"I'm honestly surprised by the positive reviews for this location. I stopped in to meet a group who had picked this spot for a Saturday lunch meet up. They were not terribly busy so we were seated quickly. Service was very attentive and friendly, I'll give them that. The restaurant itself has a very standard sports bar vibe. I don't know that it necessarily was dirty but it felt a little like it. The primary reason for my rating is simply because the food was not good at all. Our group ordered chips and queso to share, and the queso came out so watery. It was like cheese juice - I don't know how else to describe it. I ordered a chicken wrap that was mediocre at best, though the fries were food. My husband, who generally eats anything without complaint, got the nachos which even he labeled not good. The meat was not seasoned and the chips were stale. We could both barely eat them. Overall, I was just really disappointed in the food. It was a tough way to spend $40. Not sure I can recommend."

Miller Time Pub & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (97) • $$

"Super place for a small party!! With a Great staff that is so helpful in planning serving and making your party run smoothly!! The food is good with large portions and the prices are terrific!"

The Cabin Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.5 (82) • $

"Soooo, when my friend invited me for lunch here, I was like "Ionno" Morman Bridge area, country music and pick up trucks. But was I in for a surpriseThe staff was super friendly, the service was awesome and the atmosphere was totally a cabin, but not in the woods. I ordered onion rings and fried pickles and my friend ordered chicken wings and gizzards. The rings were delicious, perfectly cooked and not greasy, the fried pickles were good, but a bit salty. The wings, those wings -oh yeah I WILL be back for those, they were not pigeon wings, they were wings from a full grown chicken and I totally appreciate that, they also had great flavor. Last but not least, the gizzards, I am not a fan of anybody's organ meat, but my friend talked me into trying one and I ate 3. So apparently I didn't mind going back for more. I wish the dipping sauces had a bit more pizzaz, but ketchup sufficed. I will be going there again and will take pictures. That was a big 'ol basket o rings! IJS"

Hurrdat Sports Bar & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (85)

"I was here recently for a live podcast event and it was incredible! The house was packed but the service was great. They gave ample time to order before and after the show. The custom cocktail menu was fun too! I ordered an espresso martini to start, it was a little to creamy for me but still had a great coffee flavor. I opted for a custom cocktail and the boom boom shrimp. Unlike another spot who does small fried shrimp Hurrdats is much larger shrimp. Still a shareable app, but I the whole thing myself. I really enjoyed the sauce to shrimp ratio as well as the little heat kick on the them.Overall the show was fantastic and the food and drink were great."

Varsity Sports Cafe & Roman Coin Pizza

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (79) • $$

""Beer battered onion rings. Awesome."That's it. That's the review. Come here for good to very good sports bar food and the Roman Coin pizza. Lots of flatscreens and music. But if you're a fan of beer battered onion rings, go to Varsity. Served with a spicy Southwestern Ranch dipping sauce. I like a splash of malt vinegar on 'em."

Ramo's Pizza and Buster's BBQ

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (104) • $$

"I visited during a Nebraska Cornhuskers home game with my son. We ordered a special with a 2 topping large pizza and 4 piece garlic bread, added beverages and enjoyed it tremendously. Olivia served us and checked back after a couple of bites to make sure our food was good. She refilled our sodas on time.The parking lot is off the road. They have a deck for outdoor seating. It isn't covered. It wasn't too hot or freezing inside; it was just right. We were able to seat ourselves. While the place is known for its pepperoni and cream cheese pizza, we opted for mushrooms. I have had the Dodge's Favorite, All Meat and the Trash Can pizzas too. We got the traditional crust, and they have a thin crust option too."

Liquid Sunshine Taproom

★★★★☆ 3.7 (63) • $$

"Walked in on a Tuesday night while in town for business and looking for something to do to kill some time for the night. Things were a little busy for a Tuesday night and the staff were a little overwhelmed. That didn't stop Jessica and Austin from making me feel welcome and at home. Being far away from home and having nothing going on, it really made me feel good to be around welcoming people.The chips and queso, wings and the brown ale on nitro were all on point. I didn't step next door for a movie, but seems like a great option and venue. If you're in the area and looking for some bar snacks and good beer options the stop in, it's worth it. Say hi to Jessica and Austin for me!!"

Press Box Sports Bar & Grille

★★★★☆ 4.1 (50) • $$

"This has been our go to since we moved here. Good as always. Many TVs displaying multiple sports games. Always prompt and fast service Yesterday was no different. Our server was nice and I ordered punch box cooler- this was fantasticFollowed by a caprese sandwich with bacon. Chill atmosphere coupled with good food. Doesn't get better than this for a good hearty Saturday lunch!!5 stars!!"

The Caddy Shack Sports Bar & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (71) • $

"We went to Caddy Shack on a Saturday night (5/11) with a large group. The service and food were phenomenal. Knowing large groups can be a lot to handle, we called ahead of time. Upon arrival, tables were setup and ready for the group to trickle in (again large groups are a pain). Our waitress was amazing and took all drink and food orders efficiently. Most of the group ordered burgers. The burgers here are hands down the best I've had (not an exaggeration). The patties were fresh made with lots of flavor and cooked medium well. I would highly recommend this establishment. A great sports bar!"

Jerzes Sports Bar & Keno

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (121) • $$

"We had a party of 6 last night, and we were able to grab a booth immediately. Our server was prompt but lacking personality. We asked him question regarding the menu, and he hardly answered us. We grabbed $5 margaritas to start off, but they lacked the taste of alcohol. Our friend also ordered a Red Bull with vodka that lacked the taste of vodka. My BLTA wrap was very good on another note, and the homemade fries were fresh tasting. My son really enjoyed his BBQ wings as well. After all was said and done our server kept checking to see if we were done with our receipt. I felt that was awkward in my opinion."

Nebraska Ale Works

★★★★☆ 3.9 (52) • $$

"Great new addition to the Kearney restaurant scene, right off I-80 and smack dab in the middle of the hotel hub. The lineup of Nebraska brews is reason enough to stop. The menu is anything but limited, so it was hard to make a selection. Went with the Bison Meatloaf, and was not disappointed. Fries were crispy, and the bbq beans were solid. Want to try the duck gumbo next time. Service was great, and the place was clean and modern. The pasta looked great, as did most everything else. Cool place with great beers and grub."

The Crafty Dog Sports Bar

★★★★☆ 4.3 (38)

"They have some of the best Gluten Free dishes that I've ever eaten. Service is top notch and prices are reasonable. It's one of my favorite spots in Kearney."

Tanners Bar & Grill

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (112) • $$

"We come here because it's convenient. It's next to where our kids take dance and on busy weeknights, it's an easy option. It's bar food, it's fine. The beer selection is also fine but they're usually out of half of what's on the drink menu. I won't criticize slower service/places being short-staffed post-pandemic, but we've had a lot of...awkward staff encounters? Just kind of seemed like the staff we've dealt with were uncomfortable with us."

Clarinda Ice House

★★★★☆ 3.8 (44) • $$

"Nice laid back atmosphere with great service. Homemade ranch was tasty. Beef tip meal was large and easily split. Also, and most importantly....try the breadsticks! There's some magic going on there."

"Great Customer service and a very cute space. Food was great, typical bar food. Jalapeno cheese balls were amazing..Thank you Patricia for being an amazing waitress and bartender..."

Balz Sports Bar

★★★★☆ 3.8 (41) • $$

"OK We were looking for someplace different in Grand Island and here it is. French dip and The top of the line club sandwich both with fries were our choices along with 2 draft beers. The place was hopping on this Labor Day all locals in casual dress. Nothing pretentious here. Friendly efficient wait staff. Plenty of sports TV. Try it as an alternative to everything else in town."

DJ's Dugout Miracle Hills

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (69) • $$

"It's your typical sports bar. Typical bar food - nothing spectacular. Mixed drinks and service can be hit and miss. I recommend just sticking to beer. TV's everywhere, so If you are looking for a sporting event on TV, you'll find it here.This is usually the place where they hold my high school reunions, so the party room is ideal for similar events."

Keystone Tavern

★★★★☆ 3.9 (38) • $$

"Solid three star bar and grill. Although tonight I did not partake in drinking (full bar ahead will all your usual American beers), shuffleboard, or live music night---the burgers were buttery and tasty in my opinion. Fries were perfect too-thick cut and the perfect temperature and crispy outside. This place is in a strip mall that looks unchanged from the '70s, which gives it a bit of divey feel. The staff and owner were very kind, checking on us frequently and making light conversation.Worth a stop to try a burger and grab a beer. Your local bar and grill."

Phoenix Food & Spirits

★★★★☆ 3.5 (44) • $

"This place was pretty good. I didn't know what to expect at first. But we went to waste some time while my son was at football practice. We played a little keno. And say at the bar and had a few drinks. We also ordered some food. The food was really good. I also played darts with a few people who I met that night. Overall experience was good. I would go back to this location again."

Brewsky's Food & Spirits

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (55) • $$

"Great neighborhood sports bar. Servers working hard to get orders out and take care of tables. Had the chicken bacon melt and my sweetie had the hangover burger. A few beers and we're set. Plenty of tvs so every spot had a good view. Staff pleasant and attentive."

The N Zone Sports Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.7 (36) • $

"I really enjoyed our time spent here. Nestled below the street is this ultimate Cornhusker bar. The place was packed but that didn't stop us from getting prompt service and enjoying several games of keno. I highly recommend this place for a fun laid back hangout with friends!"

First Round

★★★★☆ 3.8 (34)

"I know what you're thinking. "Is Blackstone big enough to support 2 sports bars?" and the answer is not really, but if you're looking for a sports bar in Blackstone, this is the one to go to.90s themed through and through with some of the best bar food I've had in town, I absolutely loved my time at First Round when I came in for lunch shortly after they opened.From their tasty appetizers, to their flavorful sauces on their wings and delicious burgers, First round was a hit for me through and through. Being a 90s kid, The playlist was a nostalgic flashback to my youth. Playing all the greatest bangers 90s alternative and hip hop had to offer. The service was stellar and one of the owners was working the bar and he was a delight to chat with. I need to come back here for a Husker game one of these Saturdays!"

Cappy's Hot Spot Bar & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.8 (34) • $$

"Chill atmosphere, excellent drinks, and challenging trivia night is what brought us to Cappy's. This bar came highly recommended by our hotel staff. This place was lively, casual, with friendly staff. This is just like every sports bar complete with TVs tuned to sports, multiple pool tables, and music. The menu is the standard bar food. The drink menu had some creative names for each special concoction. Reading them out loud gave us a good chuckle. I had the Baewatch which is Captain Morgan, cranberry juice, and pineapple juice. This drink is quite sweet and powerful and I ended up ordering 2 more rounds. I also ordered some garlic bread sticks as appetizers. I was determined to try the chicken wings and various sauces. I decided on half order with apricot bourbon glaze and the other half with honey garlic. The wings were still tender and juicy. The apricot bourbon glaze had some sweetness and the honey garlic had some heat.Trivia was both challenging and immensely entertaining. The questions were randomized and kept us on our toes. Overall, this is a great spot to unwind and enjoy some chicken wings while trying to name trivia songs from the 80s."

Tiger Tom's Pub

★★★★☆ 3.9 (32) • $$

"Solid bar food in North Omaha/Benson area. Great location to meet friends, watch sports, and drink a few beers, the staff is always friendly and the dining area is always clean. Some of my favorites are the wings, the burgers, and the fries. Monday is probably my favorite day to go, they have good specials on their pizza and meatloaf, both of which are very tasty."

Rosie’s Sports Bar & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (44) • $

"Our first visit to Rosie's but it won't be our last. Wide variety of delicious looking options on the menu. We started with BBQ nachos and corn nuggets. Burgers, fries and special hash browns followed. So much food and so delicious! Service was exceptionally good on a busy Friday night. Thanks Ashley for being a pro!"

Legends Aksarben

★★★☆☆ 3 (42) • $$

"Me and the family was looking for a place to sit and eat, as we haven't since the pandemic started. We stopped at Legends, as it was closest option. Gotta be honest, the customer service wasn't bad at all (thus the 2 stars)... however the food..... *hangs head*.Entree: Chips w/ cheese. The chips tasted STALE as hell. Like "open bag, hard as a rock, flavorless" stale. I would not advise anyone to get anything that involves ANY kind of tortilla chip. Save yourself the disappointment.My meal: The club on white. Honestly, the sandwich was meh. There was nothing positive or negative, it just wasn't memorable in any way.Wife's meal: Nachos w/ all the fixings. Tasting this confirmed... "YOU DO NOT WANT ANY PARTS OF ANYTHING WITH TORTILLA CHIPS AT THIS ESTABLISHMENT."Kid 1: Philly cheese steak w/o mushrooms. The bread was the perfect temperature and extremely soft. However the meat... was cold (not sure how you pull that off, but they did). Plus kiddo spent the entire time pulling mushrooms out of the sandwich Kid 2: BBQ bacon burger. I can't really give any feedback as my goofy child drank two damn big @ss glasses of Coke and never even tasted the thing. However, she was very impressed by the fry she ate.Definitely looks like a cool place to grab a beer and catch a game, but definitely not a spot to sit and eat at."
