Bender's Tavern is definitely worth a visit. The fish and chips are really good and highly recommended. During the winter, they offer seasonal chicken and dumplings, and if you can catch it, I absolutely recommend trying it. The Mediterranean wrap is also really, really good. Honestly, just try their food and you're bound to find something you'll love because the menu has great options. Their drinks are amazing, and the bartender staff is out of this world. Special shoutout to Mike--if you have the pleasure of meeting him, you'll understand why. Great food, great drinks, and an even better atmosphere. read more

Really good wings. Really nice people. This is a great local bar for watching college football. read more

I've just recently started going to Benders on a couple Sundays with a good friend who's been going there for years. The atmosphere is perfect for watching football. A different game in every TV! There's a patio, bar and multiple tables so you have your choice of where to hang out. The menu has a lot of options! I've had the mini corn dogs which were crispy and delicious. I also tried the buffalo chicken wrap with grilled chicken and omg it was amaaaaazing. Paired with a side of tots- yum!!!!! I look forward to more Sunday fundays here! read more

Benders Tavern - Buffalo chicken wrap - Bars Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

We go to Benders often to watch the Steeler games. The wings are great and they have the best ranch dressing. They recently changed their hot chips and I'm not a fan of the new ones. But they tots are a decent compromise. Beer specials are really good during game times read more

First all, the wings are delicious. Seasoned well and cooked well! The drinks are good and a reasonable price. I really enjoy coming here when the weather is nice and sit outside on the patio. Staff are friendly and courteous. You can listen to music or watch a game on the big screen. Good food, good drinkgood prices, what's not to like? read more

Bar with laid back vibe, great food, friendly service and cheap drinks. What's not to like?? The Cajun fish sandwich is a must. I get mine with a side of the house hot sauce. My friends and I started coming here a couple years ago and now my family has made it a weekly go-to spot. The bartenders remember our drink orders which nice. read more

Great food, tons of TVs and friendly folks! What else can I ask for? I love it! Go see for yourself!

Great place to get some good beers and watch the game. The bartenders drew and Kaitlyn was awesome. They are both kind individuals and were able to bring my food out quickly and timely. Will come back here again read more

The service was excellent and the wings on point. This is a quintessential dive bar and I enjoyed my time there.

The food is very good. The staff is friendly. It's always a great hang for any informal occasion...

It's a "no" for me dawg. Boom boom shrimp sauce was mostly hot sauce. Chicken wings were reduced to chicken shrapnel from being overcooked. The burgers were really good though. The atmosphere is very much dive bar. Good spot to hang with the fellas and catch the latest in sporty ball events... read more

Kasey waited on us when we first sat down and recommended the boom boom shrimp. We got the shrimp grilled and the fried chicken tenders. The chef brought them out and they were delicious!! We cleaned both dishes! The staff is friendly, the food is delicious, and the environment comfortable. read more

I loved this atmosphere on a Sunday during football season! Big steeler fan crowd. The beer is affordable and honestly was sooo impressed with the food. I had the chicken tenders with teriyaki sauce and I kid you not in the top 3 chicken tenders I have ever had. Staff is friendly and accommodating during the game. Good sports bar and would recommend if you are a Steelers fan or football in general read more

Staff was great and on point. Atmosphere was laid back. Wife was craving nachos. This place was recommended. Glad we stopped in.

This is definitely a bar that offers some food items, and you probably need to do some of the bar scene first, and then try the food. Our call in order of a Hot Dog, a BBQ Sandwich, and a Cheeseburger took just over 30 minutes and the wait really wasn't worth it. The Hot Dog had a decent enough wiener, but there was just too much mustard, and the obviously canned chili contained BEANS, and no zip. The BBQ Sandwich was mostly bread - there was a thin layer of pork. soaked in a sweet, red sauce, and an even thinner layer of a strange tasting slaw. The Cheeseburger was better than average, but the FF were the ridged rectangles from hell - no flavor, no seasoning, and no texture. The other side was Pasta Salad, also dull. The bar scene here might be good - there are all sorts of games, amusements, a pool table, and 3 or 4 big screen TV's. They have a wide selection of beers to choose from, and daily drink specials. Might want to give that a try, but the food is just not worth the price, with the possible exception of the Burger. read more

I love coming here w my girlfriends we get wasted and the food is so freaking yummy I love the fries they have & the atmosphere is great always friendly too def can't stop going read more

Food is awesome & service is excellent!! Location is great & atmosphere is friendly !! Five star!

Came by for a late lunch. Bartender acted annoyed we were there. Asked for a beer list, didn't have one nor offer to tell what was on tap. Smelled weed on the patio and a dude who I think maybe worked there was drunk and too friendly with my dog. Everything screamed to me to not order any food, chug my beer and get the hell out of there - which I did. Wanted to find a new place to hang out in town and this definitely wasn't it. read more

Even though there was hardly anyone here at lunch, I had a good fish & chips lunch special for $7.50. this includes tater tots or fries or hot chips. The food was hot and cooked perfectly. Add one of the many beers on tap or in bottles and lunch was nice. Great outdoor seating when the weather is warm! read more

I like the consistency of this bar. Open late, friendly staff that makes sure they learn your name. I thought I was special for a minute there, uhhh no. lol There is plenty of seating at the bar or side booths. I saw at least one pool table, and several arcade games. The patio is in the front facing market so it's pretty active and a people magnet. Unfortunately, I am not a fan of their wings. Maybe it was the ones I got, but I wouldn't try them again. Can't speak on the other food. Neat-o bar. read more

Hello and good morning, This past Sunday was my first time at Benders Tavern in Greensboro, NC. Nick waited on me. He was very kind and helpful. The food was absolutely delish. Had the fried fish...mmmm good. Anne was also very pleasant. Was told she was one of the owners. The atmosphere was electric with the Steelers and Panthers playing on the sets. Everybody was so nice. We will come back again. Thank you. read more

This is my Sunday football bar. They do $1 off beers, and play as many games as they can fit on the televisions. The crowd is made up of mostly Sunday regulars, with some new faces that come in every now and then. I've ordered most of the food on the menu at different times, and everything has been good. I absolutely love their mozzarella sticks and their fried mac -n- cheese. The quesadillas are worth it to order, as they are dripping with toppings. The pizzas are great for a non-pizza place. The hot ham and cheese is excellent as well. And, of course, my favorite would be the sweet potato fries. Being a regular on a particular day makes the service seem all that more spectacular. The bartenders as well as one of the owners know me by name, and that puts a smile on my face. I have ventured in for lunch, only to find an empty bar and service that was slightly below par. The entertainment is great. They do trivia every Tuesday night (which I cannot usually attend as it's later in the evening I have to get up in the morning). They do karaoke every Friday night. One Thursday a month they play Bingo for some awesome prizes. Now that summer is right around the corner, they are getting ready for at least 3 cornhole tournaments. They do live bands some weekend nights as well. The decor makes the place seem extremely cozy. They recently put up a shelving display behind the bar so that you do not have to lean over the bar to see what bottled beers they have. They have all sorts of signs and sports decor on the walls, displayed tastefully. There are video games, a pool table, and a music machine as well. They have recently taken Big Buck Hunter out, which is to my dismay, however, I still enjoy my visits! read more

Food is pretty good, beer selection is good, good neighborhood bar but service is HORRIBLE. Female bar tenders need to stop flirting with young male patrons and concentrate on doing their job of servicing ALL the patrons. Do your flirting after your shift is over read more

My wife and I stopped in yesterday while waiting on our house closing appointment. Domestic beer was on special for 2.50 which is fair price. I had a Guinness which is never on sale anywhere. I had the buffalo chicken wrap which was a tad spicy but very flavorful and easy on the taste buds. My wife had a pizza which she spoke highly of and thoroughly enjoyed and had to bring half of it home since it was so large in size. The tavern has both bottle and draft beer as well as a large liquor selection. Many arcade games and a pool table. Outdoor seating which I think would be a popular seat during the warmer months. If you're on the side of town I recommend checking it out. read more

We had been here for lunch and enjoyed it. Decided to stop in for a bite after work. There was one bartender/waitress for the entire bar. The bar was full and there were 6 tables of customers. It was ridiculous to expect her to handle the whole place, so the service was subpar. We ordered pretzel bites appetizer, buffalo chicken wrap and wings. Appetizer came after the meal. The chicken in the wrap had a funny texture so I decided to get it to go so I could take it home and look at it in some light. We never got drink refills and were given $10 too much change, which we gave back. She said a ten got mixed in with ones (good way to lose a lot of $). When I got home I discovered I was given shrimp, not chicken. The receipt even said chicken. Glad I didn't have a shellfish allergy! Not sure that we'll go back, seems poorly managed. read more

This place is a whole lot nicer than I expected. The bar and tables are nice and there are a few arcade type games and a patio for dining out front though not very scenic facing parking lot and Market St. I was lured in by a Groupon ($20 for $10). I have to say, money well spent. It was pretty empty around 2pm but nonetheless, I started my Saturday afternoon (Yankees vs Rays) at a high table in the center of the joint with boneless wings (half lemon pepper and half hot teriyaki) as an app. The wings were large chunks of chic breast. The batter did not adhere well to the poultry. The lemon pepper flavor was dry rubbed and non existing. The later flavor was not exciting at all. I followed the app with the burger pictured. My road dog had the Philly cheesesteak. My burger was tasty and the fries and hot chips were on point. Not bad all on all. read more

We usually take pics but we were so hungry...... Sorry read more

I don't think I could have had a better time here even if our bartender Sarah wasn't a f'n heathen Duke fan. Unfortunately, she lacks the soul and intellectual acumen to really understand why she should root for a legitimate team such as NC State. But who am I to bash on someone for their ignorant decisions in sports fandom? Anyway, Sarah was excellent at keeping my beer full despite the fact she knew she wasn't getting any tip in the first place due to her unfortunate allegiances. Also, her hair is pretty. Go to Bender's. Tell her that her bae Mike sent you. ;-) Ok, so maybe I tipped her. read more

I went for the first time on a Saturday night to watch football with some friends. There were plenty of TV's and tables, and the specials were awesome (15.00 a bucket for craft beers...from a pretty good list of 40 or so). The food was mediocre, but not bad at all for a divish sports pub. The crowd was a pretty good mixture of demographics, and there was definitely a pleasantly jovial feel to the bad. They also had quite an array of arcade/skill games there, as well as a single pool table. The outside area had a few additional tables on the deck available for smoking. All in all, a great place to catch a game, or grab a bite and a beer. read more

The atmosphere here on a Friday night centered around locals and regulars. It has a low-key watering hole feel. The food was tasty bar-food (nachos were huge and delicious) and the beer selection was good. The owner was happy to discuss food and beverage selections and the bar staff was friendly, too. Nothing fancy - it has a small game room, a couple of booths, pretty nice long bar, and some tables in the middle. If you're looking for a laid-back place to grab a bite and beverage Benders fits the bill. read more

I was told it was a good bar but they stop going years ago when they had trouble with the bartender adding more to the credit card tip. So I stop in Friday and same thing happen to me. Should not allow these people to work at your bar. Mix drink was not great, bad ice or old soda. read more

It has been a little while since we have visited Benders, it was right before COVID. The menu now is VERY LIMITED. If you are going to meet up with friends for beverages it is a great place. The beverage prices are great. I would not plan to go there for the food. read more

This was a fun place- as the previous reviewer stated its low key. The crowd ranged from 20 somethings to Cougars. The bar staff did a great job accommodating a large birthday party and did a nice pour on drinks. They were very nice all night. They also have some pretty amazing drink specials for that area. They have a huge selection of girly drinks called "Bender Bowls" and those were yummy- try the Gummy Worm! They also have a large selection of bar food and sandwiches. DJ played fun music- I heard their karaoke is pretty infamous :) I would love to go back read more

There is a very friendly fun vibe here. Plus great drink specials especially Weds, Fri and Sat. The food is delicious especially the grilled chicken sandwich or homemade tenders with wing sauce and baked potato salad... amazing!!! Def worth coming here!!!!! read more

Sending the message on behalf of my guests DD and Migs. They had an amazing time at Benders thanks to Daniel. Comments from Migs below: DD and I had an INCREDIBLE time at Benders ! Daniel is an AWESOME bartender and cook. Amazing ! So glad we came to Benders tonight ! read more

Great place to grab some cold beers and standard bar food. The atmosphere is chill and the bartenders are personable and generous with the booze. Great place to have a good time with some mates. Really great music selection. read more

I like this place a lot. It's a very good local bar that is tops in that category. Beer selection is great, food is excellent, nice people gather here. Best bartenders in Greensboro: Drew and Kaitlyn. They handle a high volume of food and drink orders and manage to make everyone happy. Thanks! Marty read more

Great daily drink specials. Best trivia in town on Tuesdays and Karaoke on Fridays. Try the hot teriyaki wings they have a little spice and a lot of flavor! Keep an eye out for special events that bring in some popular bands. A great low key, local place with lots of good people. read more

Great selection of beers on tap; you will not be disappointed! Friendly service. Quesadilla and nachos looked great! Good casual spot. read more

The food was not bad but it took about half an hour to get our food when there was only 4-6 people eating in the building at lunch. It came out one at a time cause the "cook didn't read the ticket". The waitress/bartender was nice but didn't seem to care a whole lot about her job or patrons. read more
