Schooners Bar & Grill

Schooners Aims to Please!  From the simple yet delicious menu, live music nearly 7 nights a week, Sunday benefits and late night DJ's, there is something for everyone.

Why do beer joints usually have the best cheeseburgers? Because they don't overthink it. Meat, bun, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and mayo. Done. That's what Schooner's does, and it's great. A bar burger the way it should be.
The beer is cold, and they have Sam Adam's seasonals on tap. What more could you want?

This was my first stop after two flights and a layover in Detroit, all totaling 8 hours, from SF to Roanoke. Having been without a beer since Detroit's lovely airport, some 2-3 hours earlier, it was quite welcome.

Friendly staff and reasonably priced drinks. The ambiance made me feel like I was at a football game. This was aided by the 5 or so TV screens, all playing the Orange Bowl (brought to you by FedEx), which could be viewed in multiple directions from anywhere in the bar. No need to crick your neck after being in this bar--they've got you covered.
