Casual dive-bar, with big screen TV's, games, great service, and good drink specials! They have a wide variety of interesting shots for about $5 - try several for fun! read more

*****DO NOT LEAVE A CREDIT CARD WITH THESE PEOPLE***** I am sad to leave this review because I had fun there. I have been twice and was screwed over both times. The 1st time I was over charged and when I called the next day the girl that answered the phone was so freaking rude and made the excuse of "we were busy." That's no excuse to over charge. It was only $15 so I let it go. I went back a few weeks later and gave the waitress my credit card and told her I wanted to pay cash. At the end, she separated our checks. I left plenty of money on the table for my bill and tip. The next day there was a charge on my cc for my bill PLUS a $30 tip my server decided to leave herself. I ended up paying $100 for a few freaking beers and fried pickles. When I called to discuss it, the mgr was nice but she quit responding to me when I asked for a copy of the cc receipt, with a signature. I tried to dispute it with my cc company but the dispute was denied. I can't believe this happened twice. I guess being a thief is what it takes to work there. Absolutely disgusting. I didn't have $100 to throw away, but they didn't freaking care. read more

Very good service and drinks! Our bar tender was. Very kind and helpful to the menu and what drinks to order

Great sports bar. The staff is friendly and attentive. Jamie is the best bartender on the planet!

Came here recently several times and really enjoyed my experience. I grew up in the Richardson area and wish I had known about this place earlier. I've always driven through this area, and am glad I made the decision to venture in! The bar itself is packed with TV's, so if sports are your thing, this place is a must try. They also have multiple pool tables and tons of arcade/game systems to play on if that's your thing as well. All in all, this place kind of has everything somebody maybe looking for. They even have a semi-outdoor seating area that has TV's as well and is smoke-friendly. The best part about this place in my opinion is the staff and their menu/drinks. The staff here is very friendly and keeps up with their customer base. They're also very engaged in the sport side of things, which makes them great at keeping a good energy depending what's on TV. For the food menu, there's tons to pick from, but the best part is it's all reasonably priced. And for what you're getting, you're definitely getting more than you paid for. Both quality and quantity. Their drink menu is entertaining as well as they have tons to pick from and great deals for everything, including shots. Overall, I'd definitely recommend for anyone visiting the DFW-Area, and if you live in the Richardson area and haven't tried this place yet, this is your sign! read more

Awesome food, awesome atmosphere, THE place to watch any NFL game! Specialize in Packers games but very nice place.

Really good wait staff. I like the trivia night on wednesdays. I recommend their "tasting menu" even though it is not really a tasting menu as such. read more

WOW where to start...never have I ever been insulted by bar staff and an owner of an establishment. I accidentally left my cc at the bar, and asked the bar staff to hold as I would be attending back on Saturday. I go to get my card, and they asked me for my id, really? but okay I gave it to them and the smart a** said it was for my protection. Okay error # 2. At the end of the night, I went to pay my tab which I knew was going to be more than 50 dollars. once again, the completely ignorant waitress asked my name, and she proceeded to locate my card, however, she panicked and started to call someone who did not answer. She called them several times, which she finally called back around 2am. well the waitress/bartender said that she did not have my card. I opened my app on my phone and it showed that someone cashed out for $17.26. I explained that to the same waitress/bartender and all she could do was tell me that I could cancel my card and order another one. Her mistake and the lack her knowledge that it is not about cancelling the card, but you would not give me my card without an id, but you closed my card and charged her stuff to my bill and handed her my card...WITH NO ID!!! REALLY??? it was really not about the money, but more of how I was treated and made feel stupid, when the stupid ones are the ones that probably don't own a credit card and know the issues when you have to order a new one. The horrible kicker, I tried to call and talk to the owner Josh, who apparently is having a bad day and sitting on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck, unbeknownst to me, yet still not my problem, I just want to let him know what happened and he was as ignorant as his staff. I never yelled, never wanted my money back, just wanted to let him know that how I was treated, and the actions of his staff was very inappropriate, all he could tell me "oh we made our first mistake this year", just cancel your card, which has been tried to use now several time, smh. what a great way to treat people. which I could pull the details of how much money I have spent there over the last 2 years, well, I can promise it will not happen any further. My final statement is this: That's absolutely unacceptable. They failed on multiple levels--first by enforcing an ID policy inconsistently, then by mishandling my card, and finally by treating me with disrespect instead of owning up to their mistake. And to top it off, the owner was just as dismissive and his clueless staff! That's beyond frustrating. read more

Came here for the first time because we saw that it was an SEC championship watching location for the Bulldogs. As Aggies, the next best thing to being IN the game was to watch Georgia beat tu! Great service and friendly staff. read more

Some days you just want real bar food. Not a gastro pub. Not reinventions of classics. Just well-prepared bar classics. Benders definitely delivers. My husband, son, and I ordered way more food than we needed because we wanted to try everything on the menu. (Of course we didn't come close, but we're already planning our next visit to try some different things.) We had cheese curds, nachos with chicken, a Cuban sandwich, a patty melt, and a buffalo chicken sandwich. We enjoyed everything we tried. Solid bar food in a real bar. Finally, the service was outstanding! My husband uses a wheelchair, and Benders only has high top tables. We were ready to make due at a high top table, and an absolutely fantastic server/bartender took half a second to head toward the kitchen and grab us a folding table. Jamie went above and beyond and is just flat out great at her job. Can't wait to get back! read more

Today is 2/3/22 7:17 PM. I went to the COIT location. NOT MIDWAY. The Cubano was serious business. ( I had it with no pickles ) the environment is cool and the staff is cool. Definitely will be coming here every week Hill billy Philly is really good too. I had a few bites of it. read more

Benders is a great hidden gem to watch sports! We went for the Cowboys game, since it was a playoff game we thought the place would be packed wall to wall, but there was tons of space! We got our drinks served quickly, TVs on every corner, food was yummy with lots of options (appetizers, tacos, burgers, pizzas, sandwiches). Atmosphere was great - we will be back. read more

If I could give 0 I would. I've been here multiple times and have never experienced the way the servers treated us tonight. I've never been kicked out of a bar or treated horribly at a bar until I came here. we asked for napkins 2 or 3 times and they still didn't bring them to us so my friend went behind the bar and grabbed a few then went back to the table, then they yelled at us and caused a scene because we served ourselves after being annoyed from waiting for so long. both of them were absolutely horrible and I hope you go back to the way it was before. whoever two girls were working on Saturday May 4th were absolutely horrible and I really hope no one else has to experience that again! read more

I visited for a friends birthday recently. Our server was fantastic and the vibe was great! With over 10 people in our party she was attentive and quick with everything! The food was bleh.....I had the blt and they basically placed 2 strips of bacon on the bread with way too much lettuce and tomato. The drinks were okay....I probably won't go back but it's not the worst place. read more

Good atmosphere, food was good. Would definitely go back to watch other sporting events.

We came here for something different for dinner before seeing our friend in a play down the road. We had friendly, quick service and the menu had plenty of options to choose from. I had the cheese curds as an appetizer and the bent burrito as my entree. Everything was really good! read more

Waitress charge my credit card, and also took my cash for the bill. I didn't realize it until she brought my credit card back. I asked the other waitress to check and see if she charged it on my credit card. She said it was charged on my credit card. I found my waitress and told her she charged me twice. She gave me my cash back with no apology. I called the establishment and asked to speak to the manager/owner. Left a message and no call back. My suggestion is if you go to pay cash as you go and not have them hold your credit card. read more

First Time here and I will definitely be coming back. Great food, drinks and the playlist was on point tonight. The staff was excellent. My family and I were impressed and plan on recommending this location to everyone in the area. P.S. Thank you Benders for having a GREAT late night menu! read more

Terrible service. The bartender took advantage of my friend who she kept feeding shots to saying it was on her and got him drunk. She gave him his tab and he gave her cash and card. Said the cash was for her and to pay the tab via card. Well come to find out she charged him for every "on the house" drink and put the same amount he gave her in cash on the card so she'd get double the tip. When he tried to confront her about it she was magically gone. This place is a shit show for bartending. Another one of my friends who passed away recently died loved coming here because they'd never cut her off even when they should've every time. 10/10 stay away from this place. It's shady, smells bad, and just overly terrible. read more

Hidden gem. Best bar in the area by far. Drinks are great, food is great, service is great. Hesitate to rate it so highly as I'd like to keep it a hidden gem. read more

Burgers were way over cooked. Bun was dry as a bone. Great Margarita, but not for $9.00. Ordered two burgers and 4 Margarita's for $62.50? Really? Service was great! FYI The owners put a 3% service fee on each tab??? That was they can pass the credit card fee on to the customer. I've worked in the food business for 30 years and have never seen this anywhere!!! This is not a high end Sports Bar to charge these kind of prices! GOOD LUCK! read more

The best sports bar in Richardson/Dallas! Recently moved close to this spot and we love it! TONS of TVs, pool, sports, great service and an excellent spot we now can call ourselves "regulars"! If you're ordering food, try the "spitfire" sandwich! You won't regret it! read more

Went to Bender's in Richardson to watch the Packer-Saints preseason game. Woman came into the bar with her dog....sat it at the bar on a bar stool. She and another man sat on each side of the dog. She ordered food (looked like potato tots) and proceeded to hand feed the dog at the bar......we left at half time........NEVER GOING BACK!!!!! read more

Great service, delicious food and there's always a table for you to sit and enjoy an epic UFC fight!

Rude to my friends and me for having a girls' night out. I wouldn't go back even if it didn't smell like sewer.

I decided to stop in for lunch one day. It's a cool place with good food, cold drinks and friendly folks. I will be back.

Good atmosphere, good food and amazing waitstaff! Enjoy the game with locals or play good music or shoot pool.

Food was good and drinks were great! Service was amazing! Was a great chill sports bar with lots of things to do !
