Brewsky's Sports Bar

I really enjoyed my experience at Brewsky's! I was skeptical at first and figured it might be like any other sports bar, but I was wrong! Some friends and I ended up here to watch an Ohio State basketball game and the UFC fight right after. We knew we were in for a long night, so we ordered lots of food and drinks throughout the night.

The food:
We got Taco Cheesy Fries, Parmesan Garlic wings and chips & salsa. The fries came out on a huge plate that was the size of a pizza pan. That was great because I was expecting a lot less. They were pretty good! It was fries with cheese, taco meat, salsa, sour cream, and liquid cheese. We ate those up pretty fast. The wings were delicious. The sauce had a great parmesan garlic flavor - definitely not your BWW Parm Garlic. It had more of a buffalo flavor. The chips & salsa were just ok. Pretty much what you would expect from a sports bar.

The drinks: They have $2 Labatt Blue drafts all day, every day so that is what I was drinking. I wasn't sitting close to the bar so I didn't see how many beers were on tap, but I noticed that people were ordering a wide variety of beer outside the typical domestics.

The atmosphere: I love this place because of the vibe it gives off. It is super casual and fun. We visited on a Saturday night, and the place was pretty lively. They had a ping pong table, pool tables and darts. They also had some basketball games and skeeball. AWESOME. We had so much fun playing ping pong and darts in between the OSU game and UFC fight. They have huge projection TV's and other televisions around the whole bar. The waitresses we had were extremely attentive, and we were never left with an empty glass. I love the fact that they have two bars. Easier access to the booze is never a bad thing.

If you want an awesome game-watching experience, head to Brewsky's for a fun time!

This is the sad sad story of a bar that could be (and should be) so much more.  Upon my most recent visit to watch the NFL conference championship games with friends, I decided it was time to properly bitch to the only source I know of.  My buddies and I have frequented Brewskis for a number of years now and have usually had a descent time there.  If you are a sports fan this should be a solid spot on your radar to catch games, but recently the place has just been one big ole disappointment.  Over the years the prices have gone up, the food has gotten worse (it was barely mediocre to begin with) and there has been no investment whatsoever in the quality of the bar.  All the tools are in place to become a kick ass sports bar, but the parts aren't meshing at all.  It's begging for new life in here.  I do not own a sportsbar...but if I did you can bet your sweet ass I would be 100% prepared to treat my customers to a fantastic Sunday of football, drinks and munchies.   This has not been the case during my last few visits and was not the case on this day either...quite the opposite.  There doesn't seem to be anyone taking charge of the TV's and sound system during sporting events.  If fact, on this day there were data & sound cables piled up on one of the prime tables in the main room generating WTF looks from several patrons as they browsed the room for a table.  There was no sound at all from the overhead speakers so they solved this problem by cranking up the volume on one small TV to a level that horrified the couple sitting next to it.  Again...more WTF looks were exchanged.  On top of this there was a room full of what appeared to be senior citizens and children watching...gasp...WOMENS BASKETBALL!!!!!  Are you f'ing kidding me?!?!  I'm sorry, I don't hate seniors (cannot say the same for women's BB) but I do not want to frequent a bar that caters to this type of crowd while I scream obscenities at the TV on what is one of the biggest weekends in the NFL.  It appeared to us that the woman's BB game was much more of a priority than dealing with the NFL game that everyone else was there to watch.  Yes...you heard me correctly...women's BB competing with the greatest sport of all time.  Fucking ridiculous...and sad.    

Others have complained about service here, but I cannot say that we have ever had much of a time getting beers.  Regardless, for this group of beer and sports lovers Brewskis is out of the rotation.  I'm sure they will survive without our modest tab we accumulate when we visit, but if you keep pissing off  groups of middle aged sports fans who are willing to spend $$$ and don't want to put up with BS you will eventually be reduced to dealing with dumbass kids who don't know any better.  This is the kind of place that makes me want to quit my job and go into the sports bar business.  Yogis, Gallo's and even BW3 are kicking this shit out of this place in all the categories that count.  What a shame.

I would like to like this place but honestly I was very disappointed. Here's my list of complaints: 1. We had to flag someone down to get them to take our order after waiting 15 minutes. 2. We ordered a large taco pizza with jalapeños on half. What we got: a large pepperoni pizza with jalapeños on half. 3. We got there around 7:30 on a Saturday so we could eat dinner and then watch this live band but around 8 when the basketball game was over and the band was about to go on they kicked anyone and everyone out of their seats because ALL the tables were reserved/paid for ahead of time. This employee who looks like Morticia Addams said to us "You don't have to leave but you have to move." There were literally NO tables that weren't reserved in the whole bar! At this point we still hadn't gotten our pizza so we had no where to sit accept a bench against the wall so we told them to make our pizza to go. 4. The next day my mom's boyfriend who paid for the large taco pizza and a bucket of beer (6 bottles) looked at his bank account and they charged him $118! That's NOT what the receipt they gave us said either because I looked at it and it was $37 and some change.
Good things I can say: 1. The band The Navigators were awesome and they always have a cover charge that goes directly to charity (always a diff charity).
2. Our nice waitress, who was so over-worked it was sad, MADE a space for us to sit and eat by pulling a table over to the previously mentioned bench.
3. They have a nice dance space.
