Stingers Sports Bar

Cool spot to hangout and chill. The food is a solid 7/10 but the chimichangas are a 12/10. Abigail has the best service and best smile there!! She makes you just want to buy a drink.

Cool chill place to play pool and have a conversation without loud music and crowded people bumping into you

I'm only giving the 2nd star because of the REST of the wonderful staff and I have really had some fun times here. My last experience was unacceptable so I can't give any more than that. My friend called me and needed a night out so, where better than Stingers with a jukebox AND karaoke option, cheap drinks and USUALLY friendly staff? I walk in and see most of the regular bartenders at the jukebox side and the friendly security guards (Tae/Tay is the best! Say hi if and when you go.) We opt for the karaoke side and sit right up at the bar. We are served our first drinks by the bartender Bree (sp?) and that started out fine. My friends brother joined us eventually and he also ordered his drink with no problem. When I was ready for my 2nd drink, I attempted to get Bree's attention to no avail. No problem. She's likely busy making more clean glasses. I was well aware that she saw me, so I waited. Once she was finished, she began taking orders from others. No problem. I waited until she was done with that and tried again to get her attention by this time saying "excuse me" along with the friendly wave. She looked straight at me and walked PASSED me to the 3 new people who had sat on my right hand side and took their orders. Now my friend was noticing what was going on and asked if she was just ignoring me. I told her I think so. I tried to make light of it and laughingly said "heyyy, ya skipped me." At that time, she asked her brother who was with us to order another of his drinks just to see. He did. The woman even went as far as to ask my friend if she would also like anything. When my friend saw that she again walked away without my order, she mentioned to her that I had been attempting to order also. Bree snapped at her that "I'll be with your FRIEND when I'm ready." At this point I told her not to worry about it and that I will go to the other bar. I walked over to the jukebox side to order. A security guard came up and asked had I just "gotten into it" with his bartender. I told him absolutely not and explained EXACTLY what happened and explained I don't know what the woman's issue is with me. He then told me that she had reported that I got into it with her and wanted me kicked out. This was a blatant lie so I asked him to please take me to the bartender so she could tell me exactly how we "got into it." He was kind enough to allow it and I walked over with him. Bree would not even look in my direction and also would not repeat whatever it was that she lied to this man about. She said "whatever she can stay here but she'll have to get HER drinks at the other bar!" Which is what I was doing... I still have no clue where this all went wrong. I can understand people who become belligerent or too intoxicated and say/do stupid things, but we had zero negative interaction prior to this weird attitude and apparently she thought she became the booze God and didn't like that I gave myself the option to order elsewhere? I really hate leaving this amount of stars, but this was just not ok. For such a beautiful girl, that was an ugly attitude for nothing.

This place has completely changed and is under new management! I would recommend for a chill relaxing drinking place.

*Updated Review* Stingers is under new ownership and has had some remodeling done. The place is looking good and the new owners are nice like the previous owners. Great atmosphere and drinks.Chris is a great bartender too!

Kaleb is the best bartender in the world! Super friendly environment and great food! If you're ever in the Glendale area around 43rd Ave and Peoria, check them out.

Kaleb is amazing! service was great I love this place will keep coming for this guy. So kind

$5 cover not a bad deal untill we walked in stood at the bar more than five minutes with 2 bar tenders and only one making drinks. Neither said hello or anything so we patiently waited untill the bartender who was not busy still walked passed no acknowledgment. So we went over to Chris who was bartender at the second bar by karaoke excellent service acknowledged us right away and ask how we were doing. First time here and had Chris not been here friendly and happy I would have left

Terrible service, rough crowd and nasty facilities. The games were decent enough to kill time with but the rough atmosphere and crowd made getting stuff for any game an unnecessary hassle. Inexperienced bartenders and an apparent lack of care to tend the facilities.

Terrible service overall. Drinks take 45 minutes on Thursdays. The security guards flirt with all the underaged girls walking in the bar. Not a great dive bar overall. Save your money and your time!!
