Caddies on Cordell is a nice local bar and grill. It's has a local bar feel environment where you grab drinks after work or for sports. Atmosphere is basic with nothing flashy. Place is clean, service is good with attentive bartenders, and food is good. Their wings are ok with the wing special on one of the week nights. Bathroom is basic and clean....one urinal and one toilet for the men's. Food flavor was ok with premade products. What lacked in flavor was made up in quantity. Plenty of food for a reasonable price. Caddies is a local bar where you can go to get a cold beer or whatever you drink, grab some reasonably priced bar food without someone busting your cajones after work or on the weekend. read more

How could this place not be 5 stars? Amazing service. Great food with very generous portions and sports. Most importantly golf. They run every tourney. The place is exactly every red blooded man needs in their life. Awesome spot. Amazing service. Very well done. read more

An excellent sports bar when you want to watch ssh important game with a crowd of deeply engaged fans. The food is good and prices are fair. They could probably add a couple more servers, but the night we were there, they were attentive and quick. This is more about energy than polish, like a sports car should be. Recommended. read more

The best Detroit pizza in DMV doesn't exis- I've never actually had the food at Caddies until recently when I saw pizza on the menu. And after that, I'm always going back. The search for the best Detroit style pizza in the DMV stops here. I've been to multiple places and I still always will crave and end up at Caddies. Something about the crust in the specific pan creates the crust to be crispy, but the actual pizza/bread is doughy and airy. Our go to is the Grapevine 100/5! I believe it's not even on the menu anymore, but the waiters know exactly how we like it- half white sauce, half red sauce, and pesto all over (no gatekeeping here) Found out recently that they don't serve White Claws or Truly's anymore. Only High Noons and Surfsides iced teas. Not sure how I feel about that because White Claws and Truly's are usually my go-to's. Besides all that, just a regular sports bar with a bunch of TVs that are usually playing some sport. There's an outdoor area as well, but I've never actually sat outside. read more

Do yourself a favor and skip Caddies. I came in with my cousin and my son, and from the start it was obvious the place was completely unprepared for a party they clearly knew was coming. We were told to go to the bar and order our own food because they were understaffed, so there was essentially no service. The food? Mediocre at best and overpriced for what you get. Then it got worse. We were rushed to pay before even finishing our meal. When we didn't leave a tip on the credit card (we hadn't even finished eating), the owner came over, raised his voice, and confronted us about it. He then told us to leave. It didn't stop there. A bouncer decided to escalate things further by insulting me personally calling me an "old woman," saying I shouldn't be at a bar, and making other unnecessary comments. This was before 6pm while we were quietly finishing dinner, not causing any kind of scene. We were forced to leave without finishing our food, which is completely unacceptable. Also worth noting: the entrance is filled with smoke from staff/owners smoking outside, which makes for a pretty unpleasant experience before you even walk in. Tipping is not mandatory, especially when there is little to no service. The way we were treated, especially in front of my son, was disrespectful and completely out of line. Save your money and go somewhere that actually values its customers. read more

SO MANY TVS. Anything worth watching is on. Great wings. Would recommend any football Sunday

This was a sports bar that offered outdoor seating with a great setup for viewing of different televisions. The menu had lots of options, and the service was well appreciated as we were there for a long time. There were a number of dishes ordered. The food was potato skins ($14), nachos with grilled chicken ($17.50), bone in wings, and frickles ($11). The potato skins were solid. They had bacon, scallions, shredded cheese, and sour cream on the side. They were typical potato skins. The nachos were topped with melted cheddar and jack cheese, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole. The grilled chicken was extra. This was not bad. The chips held up as they remained crunchy with all the toppings present. The only issue was the lack of cheese and chicken. There was plenty of everything else, but there needed to be more chicken and cheese. The chicken was seasoned nicely and really good, so it was a tad disappointing there was not enough. The frickles were fried pickle chips with a remoulade sauce. These were good too. The pickle chips were large and fried nicely. The remoulade sauce was tasty and paired well with the pickle chips. Three wing flavors were had with the bone in. The flavors were Buffalo, mango habanero, and mambo. The wings appeared to be of good quality and an appropriate size. All the sauces were pleasant, but just not enough sauce on some of them. That was the only issue. The Buffalo was traditional with a slight kick while the mango habanero had a nice balance of hot and sweet. The mambo was enjoyable too. Will I go back? Yes. read more

Caddies is the definition of solid. Ronnie is a great guy as well, and this is a very no nonsense bar. Drinks are fair priced, the food is solid & the live music is a nice touch. Certainly a staple of Bethesda read more

Solid bar and pretty good food. We sat in the back since we had some kids with us. Service was fast and we enjoyed the music. The bar area was busy and sports were on tv. I highly recommend the burger and tots Mexican style. Enjoy a cold beer and a bite at this classic spot. read more

I finally checked this place out after walking by it millions of times and it's a cool little spot. I didn't try the food but my friends said it was good. I was just there for the drinks and the bartender was not stingy with his pours. We went for adult music bingo and it was fun. I'm definitely gonna do that again! I love a good game night. read more

I'm surprised I haven't been to this place before. Nice spot if you want to watch the games along with some great food and drinks. I got the wings with fries and they were crispy and delicious. Service was excellent and very tentative with our needs. It's a sports bar so it's excitement which is awesome if you want to sit down, relax, and catch the game with your friends/family. we'll definitely be coming back again. Responsible pricing as well! read more

Randomly came here and received great service from start to finish and solid food! Enjoyed my burger.

Food is atrocious, TV's are incredible. You are there to watch sports not eat. Don't really have much else to say.

My fiancé and I decided to try a new bar, and we loved it, the food choices are amazing, the wings are probably one of the best that we've had in a while, I had the burger, but I definitely enjoyed my other half's meal more, that Ruben was just fantastic. The service was great no complaints at all, she was wonderful. Love the feel of this place with all the great music playing, sports on the TVs just a great time. Thank you. read more

Two stars only because I am not the cohort for this bar. This is very much the place for the young college-age crowd: too sugary drinks in plastic cups, 182,394,593,495 girls packed into a three-stall semi-clean restroom and "just okay" tvs for game watching. Good part it's in a location with lots of other options so I didn't feel stuck there. Could have just been the one Friday night I was there, but doesn't seem like the place for anyone over the age of 25. read more

Great local bar to watch sports and enjoy some food. The bartender was very attentive never had to wait for a drink. The appetizers were very good. Got the fried pickles, wings and sliders. The chicken parm sliders were delicious. read more

Great vibe great location and always a good time good food very nice staff and overall enjoyable every time

Wow! I'm surprised this place is rated below 4 area. I ordered two weeks ago on DoorDash for me and my fiancé and we were very impressed with both the Jewish food and Detroit Pizza. The Grand Slam sandwich which was ginormous and we saved the other half for a sandwich the next day. It is good, it is almost there with Attman's and beats most other Jewish delis, including Parkway. We also had Cheesy Waffle Fries on the side which complimented our sandwich well. The matzo ball soup was delicious as well. The Jewish deli was originally part of Heckman's Deli which has the same owner and then became part of Caddies Grapevine Detroit Style Pizza was also delicious and one of the best pizzas we've had with all the toppings we love. I believe the Detroit Style Pizza idea came from Underground Pizza Company that had a pop up here as well as well next to us at the now closed Olazzo in Silver Spring (luckily for us they'll open up at Olazzo's space). However, Caddies now has their own excellent speciality pizzas that differ from Underground. All in all, we very impressed and look forward to ordering from here again. read more

Ronnie is the man. Best bar in Bethesda. Awesome food. Best commanders bar in the area too, game day is great.

fun place. has live music. usually has some good bands. but the sound board guy there is so ridiculously incompetent. he's got the vocal mics cranked so low that you can't hear any lyrics. it sounds like the singers are mumbling gibberish along to the tune of the song. this dude is an embarrassment. should be fired immediately for ruining a good spot. read more

My husband's favorite style of pizza is Detroit style. We had a great place back in Texas that he loved (I think it made Yelp's list of best pizzas in the US last year), and though we've found good Detroit style pizza in Silver Spring, it's not the most conveniently located for takeout and doesn't do dine in so we have only gotten it once. So when I was looking up the restaurants participating in Bethesda restaurant week and saw that there was a bar that had good Detroit style pizza as well as good deli sandwiches, I figured we needed to give this place a try. We came on a Thursday night around 6pm, it was very lightly attended but got a little busier as we were there. Their restaurant week special was a medium 1 topping pizza, to which we added a few, 10 wings (we chose the asian chili flavor) and fried oreos, for $35 (we also added a couple drinks and a small caesar). My favorite parts of the meal were the wings - delicious sauce reminiscent of a general tsos, but superior because the chicken was meaty and not breaded - and the fried oreos, which were like fresh donut balls with an oreo in the middle, served with ice cream. They gave us six of these. One or two per person is MORE than sufficient, so we took some home. They were surprisingly delicious. The caesar and the pizza were good, but not best in class. I think the only issue with the pizza is the sauce; it was very thin and not particularly robust. The crust was light and airy like a good Detroit style should be, and the toppings were fine but not necessarily standout. The servers were very nice and pretty attentive, though I think they'd forgotten about the restaurant week thing which was kind of funny, I guess it's not advertised as well as it could be. There is a parking garage nearly next door which was a relief since it was a rainy night. They do have a large patio which I look forward to sitting out on when the weather is good again. We will be back and I will definitely have some wings and maybe try some deli food. Hubs can have the pizza, but I only eat Detroit style when it's perfect, I'm picky about how I spend my carb-calorie budget. Don't take that as an indictment though - it's good, most will like it just fine. I'm diabetic though and have to save my splurges. read more

Great place to watch sports! Caddies is plastered with large televisions both inside and outside. They offer about 8 beers on tap and also offer a full bar. I enjoyed cheering on my football team here and being able to easily watch other games during the commercial breaks. I would recommend Caddies for watching sports in Bethesda. read more

Very solid place to grab a burger or a beer at the bar. Came here to watch the JMU football game, and the bartender Ronnie was the man and happily put the game on. This place is also MAGA friendly in case you're looking for a spot for patriots in Bethesda read more

One of the bouncers called one of the ladies in our party overweight after a disagreement about the Redskins vs Cowboys rivalry. Food was alright, but slightly overpriced. The only thing that is helping it is that it's right across the street from Signature Cigars read more

I'm going with a two to give them the benefit of the doubt as we did not order any food. However, after dinner we decided to come here because it looked cool with the open doors and it was beautiful outside. We sat down and immediately noticed so many types of bugs flying around different parts of the ceiling. These weren't just bugs coming in from the open doors, but we're clearly after something. They were deeper in the bar as well. I totally wish we got up and left, but my husband feels awkward doing that. Eventually a waitress came back and we ordered two drinks and ripped them back pretty quickly but she never came by again and we had flag someone else down to cash out. I just felt so gross and that the bugs were all over me. read more

Their wings are BETTER than Wingstop. I usually order for delivery and the wings are still crispy. Great sauce to wing ratio.

My sister went out with me for the first night in Bethesda after falling off a balcony. I wasn't able to tip what the staff thought was okay so they thought it was okay to berate me and my sister on Juneteenth. I'm honest sure it was a drunk mistake as we were trying to leave but they made it very confrontational. As someone who lived off tips, it is never okay to alienate your costumers no mater what you think you deserve. read more

We have all had to readjust our dining-out expectations during the pandemic, but Caddies took mine to a whole new low. My sister and I were craving nachos and thought this dive bar would be a prime spot to fulfill our needs. When we entered their tented establishment and were overwhelmed by the noise of young tipsy people we should have immediately turned around and left. The bouncer took our temperatures and then we found the closest table we could find to the outside. The waiter quickly approached to take our drink orders. My soda water with lime appeared quickly in a disposable plastic cup advertising "Truly" as did my sister's Orange Crush. She took a sip and noted the taste of overwhelming vodka. My sister scanned the bar code for the menu with her phone and quickly found the options for $13 nachos and we opted to add jalapenos for an additional $2. We placed our order and were given plastic cutlery and napkins while we anticipated the arrival of our food. Shortly thereafter our waiter appeared and placed a plastic container that looked to be the right size for leftovers in the middle of the table along with plastic containers of guacamole, sour cream, and salsa. When the lid was removed, a small pile of soggy nachos with hardly any nachos was disappointingly revealed. The chips were stale and despite ordering extra cheese there wasn't much cheese at all. We weren't given plates, so it was a challenge getting the soggy chips to our mouths without making a mess. Fifteen dollars for a small serving of disgusting nachos was not what we had been hoping for. All the while, the echoing, noisy chatter of the young drinkers was giving us a headache. If you're a young person looking for a very loud dive bar that serves super-strong drinks and over-priced, gross food this place is for you. My sister and I won't be back. read more

Caddies - A small box of soggy, disgusting nachos that cost $15. - American Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

I was at caddies last saturday night for the fight with my boyfriend, we both are from the area and haven't been to caddies in years so we thought we should check it out. We came in and didn't know there was a cover which is fine but the bouncers were very rude. We proceeded to get a drink but the service wasn't good at all, the bartenders were walking straight past us numerous times without even making any eye contact. Finally, we got the attention of the female bartender, she was nice but also busy so that's understandable maybe she needed an extra hand. The crowd was somewhat odd just a mix of kids and older people, it felt like i was in a not so great college town not Bethesda. All the sudden we see security kicking people out left and right, i guess some people were causing a disturbance. But what really caught my eye was they were kicking out people that weren't even doing anything wrong and the bouncers jumped these two guys for no reason. One was talking a lot and more threatening but there was one guy i remember that did Absolutely nothing wrong to get beat up and jumped by bouncers. It started to get out of hand and i saw the bouncers take the two peoples belonging who were just assaulted. After all this was happening i was surprised no one called the police especially if the security staff couldn't handle the situation. And not only that i heard the bouncers demanding money for the people that they beat up for no reason. That sounds like EXTORTION. Who ever owns this establishment shouldn't be owning or running anything if they actually trust these horrible security staff. I also was reading other reviews of other people not being let in unless they paid them. These bouncers are extorting people and robbing them of their hard earned money. I hope they file a police report on this horrible establishment. None of this should be happening in Bethesda. I literally saw assault, robbery, and extortion in the span of ten minutes all by the staff at caddies. No professionalism whatsoever. read more

A lot of the bartenders (not all) do not wear their masks over their mouths and noses when making drinks especially when socializing with customers - and if you say anything to them about it they will absolutely give you a big eye roll and attitude :) so if you think you can safely drink here, it's a big no. Lol just stay home. *let me update this to say that after careful review and watch they don't make all customers at the bar wear their masks properly either. read more

Stopped into Caddies for quick drinks with a couple of friends. While we didn't grab any food, the drink selection was solid overall, but nothing too impressive (only a couple of local or craft items on the menu). Probably to be expected given the venue. Plenty of TVs with sports on - a little loud and bustling. They had a live band playing covers which was a nice addition to the atmosphere. Service was quick and efficient at the bar. Definitely a good sports bar to stop by for a quick game and drink. read more

Best outside bar area in Bethesda Beautiful place to sit outside and watch the neighborhood. Low traffic street with lots of foot traffic. And latest happy hour in Old Bethesda going til 8 pm. Happy hour here is cheap beer ($3 Miller Lite draft) and basic bar food. Fries, nachos, burger and pizza Inside bar has a neighborhoodey laid back vibe with tv's. Not a place I plan to go to, but walking past on the way home, it calls to you with its comfort and ease. read more

One of my favorite bars in Bethesda. If I want to watch a game in that area, this will be my first pix. Watching games on their huge screen tvs almost makes you feel like your at the sport event. My old boss would always spoil us with Caddies carry out. I love their wings, salads and steak and cheeses. My favorite app is their chessy tater tots. Crispy, hot and fresh!! My friends love getting their beer on tap. Service is good. Its a nice gathering spot in the hot summer months. Only thing that makes this a 4 star than a five star review is their cleaniness. Tables take a while to be cleaned and floors arent cleaned well. read more

Total dive bar with a lively vibe. Crowd was an interesting mix of young 20 something's and baby boomers. Drinks were good and the potato skins were surprisingly good. It was loaded with bacon so you can't go wrong there. We were there to catch the band Whiskey Neat. They were quite good! Apparently the lead singer was sick so another singer subbed for him and she was pretty good even though at times her voice was drowned by the guitar and drums. Would definitely come back to catch the band again. read more

This place was fine, nothing too special to write home about. I came after work for some drinks and to watch the game. We had to order at the bar, which was fine. The drinks were normal, nothing over the top to write home about. I'd go again, but it's not at the top of my list. read more

This place absolutely sucks. Terrible food, terrible service, terrible drinks. I was so excited to come to this spot after hearing many of my friends speak so highly of it. But I was truly let down today. I don't even know how a place like this still operates. Not worth spending a single penny of yours at this establishment. read more

Classic case of not judging a book by its cover. Outside and inside it's a typical bar (with great service and staff btw), but if there is one thing you do before you die it's gotta be trying the pizza at this place. To be honest, I did not expect this place to have as good of pizza as it did. We ordered a large meat lovers and it came out so delicious. They served us a super amazing Detroit style pizza with an amazing crispy and buttery crust and oozing with tasty mozzarella. Definitely worth stopping by and grabbing a bite if you are in the area. read more

Food and vibe was great. I went on Wednesday because I seen the flyer about all night happy hour. Bingo was fun. I brought my fam to celebrate my sisters college graduation but the big guy at the bar totally ruined our vibe. He refused to acknowledge us at the bar trying to order food. Then when I noticed he messed up my tab and overcharged me, he refused to hear me out or fix it. I really enjoyed the vibe but that alone makes me apprehensive about returning and it's sucks because I'm a new local looking for some great everyday spots. read more

Not what I was hoping for. Met up with a friend to watch an NFL playoff game on a Saturday night, talk, and have a late dinner. But the place was too loud and crowded for my taste. It was more of a bar than any sort of restaurant. No real wait staff. All orders had to be placed at the bar. Food was decent, but nothing to write home about. Conversation was difficult due to the noise There was nothing fundamentally wrong with Caddies, but it's more of a 30-and-under kind of place than a place for a couple of middle aged friends to meet up for beer and conversation. read more

For 11pm, the place was pretty crowded, hence the holiday & the Cavs & Hawks were playing. No table service, I had to order at the bar, no problem as Dade was friendly & expedient. He gives you a choice to pay as you go or start a tab...I get it, no table service & to avoid the eat & dash. I had the Hummus platter & a glass of Cab. Surprisingly it was very quick service in delivering the food & even a few check ins here & there by the server. The hummus was garnished with parmesan cheese and diced tomatoes., I 86'd the cheese & it was very good. It came with warm/grilled pita, & an array of fresh & abundance of carrot sticks, celery sticks, and cucumber chips. A tasty, healthy & well portioned late night snack. I was scanning the menu, pretty large selection for bar food & then some on the entrées aspect. I'll have to menu dabble more in depth the next go around. The patio was nice with the weather with the exception of the chain smokers, I thought everyone was turning over to E-ones LOL...it was smoke signals haven. I sat at the last table by the entrance, to help offset the 2nd hand smoke consumption. Besides that, it was a nice open layout from the bar to the patio & with a good scene for a sports bar that stays opened late. Good place for late night sports & bar food. read more
