I can't remember the bartender's name which I regret, but she was awesome! Â Super friendly, made us laugh from the second we sat down and made us feel right at home. Â I'd give the food 4 stars, but since the bartender and other server were so great, it definitely earns 5 stars in my book. Â Look forward to heading back there again sometime soon.
Review Source:This bar and grill is attached the hockey rink that my husbands hockey tournament was taking place in over the weekend. Â It was expected to be 90+ degrees in Vegas so I somehow managed to forget to pack a jacket (duh!) so I was a little under dressed to be spending time in a freezing hockey rink. I was lucky that Brooksy's had an entire glass wall where you can view the game and also order food and drinks in a nice cozy environment. Â
The service here was great. Even though this was a bar, they didn't make a fuss when we brought in two packs of beer for the boys to drink after the game. We didn't drink the beer here and ordered lots of beer from them so perhaps that's why they were cool with it. The food was pretty decent - not super healthy stuff but it got the job done.
We happened to eat here on Good Friday (no meat) and little was there for us to choose from. We ended up adjusting the ham and grilled cheese sammy to just being a grilled cheese. The bread was buttered and toasted perfectly and it had cheese oozing out the sides. It was so tasty! The fries that they were served with were ok. They could've stayed in the frier a little longer to get a bit more crispy but they were decent. I also ordered the side garden salad and it was really good for a garden salad. Lots of tomatoes and cucumber so they weren't stingy with their ingredients at all.
Their spicy bloody mary wasn't all that bad either. The glass it was served in was tall and narrow so a little on the smaller side but at least it was done well. Â
Hats off the waitress that served all 20+ of us. She was awesome!
Ate here simply because we were playing in a hockey tournament at the attached ice arena. This isn't our 1st time playing in this tournament at this rink and we were all very happy the bar had been updated. It is much cleaner, food is better and the wait staff is much friendlier. Looking forward to coming back next year.
Review Source:If there any bar that truly reflects just taste of hockey in Vegas this is the mecca. On any given day/night you stop by if nothing going on in the bar, tv, or need entertainment all you need look out the windows see going on the ice. Given some of the hockey never be NHL vary from youth too adult leagues. If fan of the game (I love the game) kind of cool think go too local hole in the wall bar see some hockey!
The bar it nothing really special about it. It basic local bar or more hockey players bar since most of the adult leagues at nights see player go too the bar with teammates for couple beers after their games. They do have nice HH Monday-Thursday 3-7 $2 draft beers and they serve pitchers. I find not many bars serve pitchers of beer anymore. The food they have special prices for HH. I never have  been there for the food honestly  just support teammates and drink after the game. They have basic bar food pizzas, wings, fries, and nothing special. I never heard bad things just basic bar food. Nothing too rave about or make you want have dinner. If looking hang out at local bar in the area and mix things up watch some hockey over beers this is the place too be..
Loved the Shuffleboard game here. We had it all to ourselves the day we went.
1 con - because this 'bar' is attached to the ice rink there are kids in and out with their parents or whoever brought them, going back and forth to the bathroom, running through the front door etc. I just never thought a bar was a place for the kids to be taking over, just sayin....
Response to an earlier review:
Waitress: Is a Service Provider, An Employee and is the lasting image of customer satisfaction. It is what owners and investors of a business rely on to have return business. It is a shame that this establishment perhaps made a mistake in choosing this person to front their future. Thanks for posting.
Not bad ambiance if you sit next the window to watch the amateur hockey games going on below. Food selection is the run of the mill bar food we have all come to know and love, with a fairly wide selection of appetizers, sandwiches and salads. Â Prices are reasonable on drinks and food also. Â Overall not a bad little place to relax, grab a drink and watch some amateur hockey.
Review Source:Fun bar, hot video poker machines sometimes paying out over $10K a week! Food is standard pub fare but it's really good! The wings are nice and crispy, the garlic knots are seasoned nicely, garlic fries are super yummy, buffalo chicken pizza is good, regular pizza is good, sampler platter is huge and can be shared, and the salads are huge. The only item I did not like at all is the turkey burger. It's apparently a "new" item, but I was thinking ground turkey, and what I got resembled ground turkey sausage pattie that was chunky and had no flavor. It made my stomach turn. Many other options to choose from though.
Service is questionable when not at the bar. Bar staff is really attentive to refills, or food orders. Roaming waitress however, I'll agree with another patron, forgetful, chit chats for too long with patrons, and if there are multiple checks in your party, lol good luck. You'll have Joe's pizza on your check when all you ordered was a beer! Instead of waiting for 20 minutes for her return to check on the payment of bills, we typically just sort it out on our own with IOU's.
Brooksy's is a nice, chill neighborhood bar. The menu is pretty standard, the draft choices are pretty minimal, the service is alright.
What really sets this place apart is the wall of windows that looks out upon the neighboring Ice Center rink! That is what brings me back. Whether it's a hockey game or just free-skate...it provides a nice, fun, and new form of bar entertainment. You can only look at a tv for so long. But free live hockey games, complete with pucks flying at your window and the hope/chance of watching a fight on the ice. Well that's just good ole fun!
The menu is alright. Â For appetizers I like both the garlic knots and the chips and salsa. The chips here are good, not like most places. They're hard to describe...I'd say they're like if a tortilla chip fucked a sun chip, they would give birth to this piece of delicious goodness!
I've never had breakfast here, and never had the pizza that people rave about yet. But a few of the sandwiches like the Chicken Parm and the Blackened Chicken, as well as the turkey burger, are really good. The fire fries are excellent too...if you like fries I always recommend getting those as your meal side.
So if you like watching live hockey while eating a decent meal without breaking the bank, check this place out.
Typical bar setting and atmosphere pretty basic, great happy hour deals including 50% off for ladies :)
The bartenders are very nice and attentive. One even kept offering my bf cigs when he ran out.
Be prepared to wait outside for a little while if you go there during a game or on a Friday night. It takes them a minute to unlock the door after you ring it b/c they are so busy!
Nice, yet typical neighborhood bar and grille with one exception: Big glass pane windows overlooking the hockey rink, on a given night there's probably a game or two to watch. The place is casual though, really nice bartenders, comp well for gambling. Great happy hour, beer prices anyway, it's like $2 for a draft.
The chicken parm sandwich is pretty decent. Good size chicken breast and the sauce is thick and doesn't soggifiy the bread. Sandwich with soggy bread = FAIL.
Their mozzarella sticks and chips/salsa - both of which were pretty tasty, the tortilla chips were freshly fried and just the right amount of salt.
They jukebox plays a cool mix of old 80's rock - at least on Fridays. It'd be nice if they had a pool table but they do have shuffleboard if you're into that.
I'll be back, especially when I want to keep if cheap and not feel like I'm having to cut back. It can be a little quiet in here, unless there's a hockey game on the big screen or a hockey game in the rink
Hmm, I'm surprised I haven't written a review for this place yet. Â I've been here a few times for beers and hockey watching. Â Not a great selection of beer. Â I usually get Blue Moon. Â Typical bar food, but the blackened chicken sandwich is pretty good.
The great thing about this place is you can watch people play amateur hockey through the amazing plexiglass windows they have overlooking the ice rink next door. Â It's usually not really crowded so I've always had a great view of the action. The servers have always been nice and helpful when I've been there. Â If you like hockey, check it out.
This place was very high energy during a Friday night hockey game. I had a great time and Tammy, the bartender, was awesome. This was not my first trip to Brooksy's but it was my first visit during a live game. They were very busy compared to the 2 or 3 other times I have stopped in for a drink. It was a fun atmosphere and the drinks were flowing.
I also found out that Friday is ladies night. All of my drinks were half price. It was a nice little bonus when the bartender handed me the check. I was entertained while quenching my thirst for a cold draft for less cash than I expected. I left a happy lady with plans to return.
Service from waitress lastnight was horrible! How did this girl get hired? She came over took my friends order then wondered around the room talking to all of friends and loyal patrons for next 10 minutes. After 20 min. We realized she was not coming back I took the matter into my own hands and went to the bar and ordered myself. I looked at the service printer to see if maybe the bartender just over looked the order and there was nothing there. So I ordered through bartender, payed for the round and this waitress came running over grabbed the order apologizing for not getting it earlier. I said don't worry about it. Then she brings the pizza over to us and didn't even bother to bring other plates for us to eat off of. Then she brings the bill over to us and sure enough she charged us for the round of drinks we just payed for 10 minutes ago! I  told her we allready payed for the round she forgot, she disputed and told me just pay the bill cause I served them to you. I said you delivered drinks that I payed for that's what you brought over. I got up to discuss with the bartender what was happening and as I walk away the waitress calls me a "dick". As I walk over to talk to the bartender I look at the service printer and there sat the round of drinks she just put the order in to cover herself I'm guessing. I asked the bartender to look at  the order  and took to look at my receipt of the order I put in 20 minutes earlier. Then the waitress walks over to me and asked me where I worked challenging my critique of her service. I replied. " I work in a place where under no condition am I allowed to call my customer a Dick". Then the bartender made a managerial decision to comp the check and defuse and escalating situation.  I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN THIS PLACE AGAIN !!!!! AND NEVER RECOMMEND IT TO ANY OF MY FRIENDS.!!!! To bad. We were going to make this our industry hang out spot.
Review Source:Hey Brooksys,
We love this place ever since we had a Groupon.  You have great food , drink prices, and shuffleboard is fun too!  The only thing you are missing that would make me and my friends frequent much more often is if we could play Buzztime trivia at your place.  We want someplace other than Buffalo Wild Wings to eat and play trivia!  Please consider getting this trivia.  Check out the site.  <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.getbuzztime.com%2F&s=d9aa936d63ec5729f33baba4770cad4a9f573bb040ba37e08edd1081bb76c82f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.getbuzztime.c…</a>  Thanks!
Okay I didn't want to write this review people..not because I didn't have the best time in Vegas in a while, but because I knew if I gave this place 5 stars and talked it up so much I would lost the place to a lot of people! (Forgive me I don't like to share..LOL) But I just had to do it. I saw a coupon for Brooksy's like 2 weeks ago and figured I had a credit I would try it out. I then went to Brooksy's website and saw that Friday and Saturday nights are Ladies Night! Women we drink from 5pm-midnight half off! And it's not just WELL DRINKS it's every drink! I was thrilled to see that. Usually on a Friday if you want to get into Happy Hour you have to rush from work and you usually don't get more then 2-3 hours of the good stuff! Well that's not the case here! The bartender Tammy was the best! We also had server Sandy that made sure my husband's birthday was done up right! Now to the food. Bar food at it's best a good thing but Brooksy's Sampler made me feel like we had enough food for the troops! We order 2 of them which was only $10 a piece and got more then we asked for! They didn't give us our moneys worth, they over passed it! They have a junx box but it didn't work but Sandy said no fear. They had Direct TV and she put on the music and that's when our party got into full gear. Now here's the best part. It's right next door to the LV Ice Skating Ring..so for all the people who like and love hockey you can eat and drink and actually watch the game! There's a clear wall that separate Brooksy's from the Ice Skating Rink! You sit on the end and you get to see a great game! We only caught a pick up game but thought we have to come back and watch a real game(and I don't even like hockey..LOL). All I can say about Brooksy's is save me a seat if everyone is going to steal my new GEM that was found in Vegas. You got good people, great service, tasty food, and did I say LADIES NIGHT EVERY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY 1/2 DRINKS 5PM-MIDNIGHT! You can't get any better!
Review Source:This tavern, which was formerly the Castle Bar & Grill, is not just another ordinary Vegas tavern. The wall which once separated it from Las Vegas Ice Center, has been converted to a glass wall, which offers a full view of the ice rink. I happened to walk in right when a hockey game was being played. I couldn't believe that I was able to watch ice hockey this close up, and without having to purchase a ticket. So, it was a nice discovery. It's also close to home, so I'd like to come back here again to watch some more ice hockey in person.
