Tobacco Road Sports Café

Great burgers and beer! Also, overlooks Durham Bulls Stadium. Dined there as a family on Saturday evening and got to listen to a concert after we dined on the patio.Lots of TV's playing sports games inside if the big game is being televised while you dine.They have a generous selection of craft beers, custom brews and non-alcoholic options.The burgers were awesome!We will definitely return.

Definitely a sports bar.I had a strawberry avocado salad. There is nothing very much if you are gluten free although they make some accommodations like just leaving out the bread on a sandwich! There is not enough lettuce but good flavor. My husband had a Philly Cheesesteak ordered with no grilled onions or peppers, subbed white cheddar and raw onion and tomato with well well done French fries. Sandwich was good but not enough meat... not much to it.This so definitely a place to drink. Outside balcony is great but food just C.

I stopped here on my way to DPAC for a concert. It was very convenient location and we were able to walk in and immediately get a table. The menu was vast and had many options. Out of the things we ordered, the best was definitely the buffalo chicken eggroll. It came with a blue cheese, but I also got a side of ranch. The egg roll flavor was absolutely amazing. It was a little spicy with some of the buffalo sauce, but the ranch helped with that. The ranch was a little runnier than I usually like, but it was still tasty. I ordered the Cobb salad and it was OK. I got the chicken on top and there was a lot of chicken, but it wasn't very seasoned. The salad was big but I think because the ranch wasn't the best it just didn't hit 100%. The salad usually comes with blue cheese, but I don't like blue cheese so I got the ranch. I wonder if it would be better with a more flavorful dressing. My dad got the steak and he said it was good but it wasn't cooked as much as he wanted it (which is saying a lot) and the coffee rub on the steak was a little overpowering. But the service was wonderful and the atmosphere was very nice. I would definitely go back and try something other than a salad. Maybe that just wasn't the best thing to order. Maybe some sort of sandwich or wrap would be more of their thing. I still have hope because the buffalo chicken eggrolls were so good.

Was such a cool place to eat in Durham! Ate this back in march so there was no Durham Bulls game going on but, we still ate outside. The heaters outside were so hot and toasty. The food was very good and overall a great place to grab a great meal. Even though we were in Durham...GO UNC!!

We arrived before the Saturday evening crowd so we were able to get a large table perfect for our group of eight.Our server was attentive and took very good care of us throughout our stay. Every cocktail any of us ordered was done perfectly. Our beers were cold and drafts poured properly.The food on the other hand was mediocre. The chicken wings, for example, were at room temperature. I got 5 appetizers for the table and they were all eaten though.I'd go back here again and it's definitely a good place for groups.

Tobacco Road is in the DPAC complex with LOTS to see. When attending a concert, we walked through the river area, caged basketball court, and around by the baseball stadium to get to Tobacco Road. TR is the PERFECT place to post up and grab a drink before a DPAC event/show. If you're into watching a/your team play, try and lock down one of the round booths facing the TV wall. Seriously, we haven't seen a wall like this since Caesar's (Vegas). There was a LOT going on with all the Sunday NFL games. Price point perfectly matches the food. We had all the greatest bar food hits, burgers, tacos, cheesesteaks, ribs, etc. All were solid choices. Service and hosts were friendly and accomodating. We look forward to our next concert, game, and/or downtown Durham stroll.

I feel like this is one of the spots you have to visit in Durham at least once just to say you've been there. Grab a beer, sit back and enjoy the views of Bull Stadium. The beer and cocktail selection is pretty good and the food is just okay. The service I would say is pretty average as well. It's a good spot to watch a game, but don't expect to have your taste buds explode. Got their Surf & Surf and my fiancé had the sirloin. Everything was decent, could have used more flavor and seasoning for the sides. But for a steak, seafood and a beer, the total was only $50 so I would say you get what you pay for.

A lot of fun, TVs all over and great place to go before a Bulls game to watch Batting Practice on the patio. Parking kinda sucks but that goes for any thing in the stadium/American Tobacco area. Food is good but feels kind of limited for my taste at the price point. Service is great but food can take a longer than it should on busier nights.

My daughter and I decided to check out Tobacco Road Sports Cafe on Super Bowl Sunday night after seeing a great show at DPAC. We were seated right away, surprisingly since the game was still on. There's lots of seating options which is awesome. Shy was our server and she was rather attentive even having so many tables on such a busy night. We both ordered sliders since it was late and we just needed something on our stomachs. I ordered the pulled pork sliders & she ordered the hot chicken sliders. They came out pretty quickly. I'd say they were both pretty good. The pulled pork ones were better once I asked for bbq sauce. The hot chicken was exactly that, but had a pretty good flavor. It's a great space to hang out and watch what's on tv, they have so many TVs. I didn't see their drink menu, but I'm sure they had a lot of great selections. The menu had a good amount of variety, I'd come back.

We came here on a non game day, got a seat on the patio, and LOVED the food. We had the Down East Nachos and Durham Bull burger and ohhhhhhhh yum. Excellent. Food is 5/5. View and atmosphere was 5/5. Service was not as good, we didn't have silverware for the longest time. But the waiter was friendly nonetheless. Can't wait to come back here and try more. PS- nachos can totally be split between two people. We had enough at dinner for one, and took home leftovers for two meals with it!
