This place is soul food heaven, when I tell you everything on my plate was on point, I had collard greens, smothered green beans, oxtails that were so tender that I couldn't pick it up, peach cobbler the best I ever ate, including mine and my moms. If you love soul food check out Soul Food Sunday at Coaches Corner. You will not be disappointed. And the staff is top shelf, Megan, our waitress was friendly and attentive. read more

Hm.... I think I'll have to try this place again before I make a final decision but it was a bit underwhelming and left very little to be desired after our visit. Waitstaff felt under trained, menu needs reworking and the food was super mid. On the plus side super friendly people, clean place, and the potential is there but they're gonna have to work it out quickly. read more

We had an awesome experience and the owner, Corey, is an amazing guy. As a former OU player he was so fun to talk with. He and his staff were very friendly and the food was amazing. We stopped by after the Auburn game and they worked hard to get our large party seated quickly. The wings and fries were amazing and the atmosphere was so fun. Great place to watch a game and they had lots of TVs with all the games on that night. . Highly recommend checking them out. We'll definitely be back. Boomer!! read more

Much better when it was Penny Hill. But that is gone. Much better when it first opened, then good food and service. Now four people order at the same time and service comes out at four different times. Food isn't great and the server is overwhelmed. They also traded silverware for cheapest plastic ware I've ever seen. Been here 10 times and there won't be a 11. read more

Owners are super nice and welcoming. Good happy hour prices and good food. Wings are definitely the way to go!

We didn't care for the food. Nothing freshly prepared, just typical frozen bar food. Service was good. Just not our type of place

We support local, we hope that this establishment will succeed. On a Saturday lunch for four, the employees vanished but the cook knew we were waiting on our food and served us kindly. There was only one other customer there. The food was really good! Employees should act like they are the owners and take pride in their job, like the cook did! read more

They could improve on every aspect of the restaurant. They pay their employees late and act like it's no big deal. Checks have bounced multiple times as well. read more

The menu is rather simplistic but offers good quality. The atmosphere is comfortable, and the service is efficient.

Food is fantastic- wings and burgers are a must! Coach and his staff are so great. They are so accommodating for guests including ensuring your fav game is on tv and you can sit in your preferred spot. Perfect sports bar in Norman. We will be back for all games! Boomer! read more

Food and service were great! Unintentionally went during an OU away game. The place was super loud but that's to be expected. The service was wonderful and there was always someone stopping by to make sure we were ok and asking if we needed anything. The menu is limited and the vibe is definitely more bar than a restaurant. That being said the food was so good! We started with the pretzel bites and cheese and we loved them. We ordered both boneless and bone in bbq wings and they were both great! The bone in wings had plenty of meat on them and were juicy unlike other places that tend to overcook their wings until they're dried out. Waffle fries were more like chips but still great. The Caesar salad was pretty basic but who orders a salad at a bar anyway. Will be back for sure! read more

Great atmosphere. Very friendly staff. The food was delicious. We watched NFL all day. The Sunday Pork Chop was AMAZING.

What a FANTASTIC first experience at Coaches Corner! Mitch and Avery were incredibly attentive and helpful with menu options. The wings were wicked with the best being the spicy Vietnamese. The waffle fries were crispy and seasoned, which is rare. We also met Corey the owner who could not have been more accommodating. Definitely come here or come back!! read more

Soulfood Sunday oxtails, while catfish and chicken spaghetti were soo soo soo delicious! Best staff ever...Cash (I think his name was) made our entire experience unforgettable. He provided the best service and was extremely polite! Great food, great vibe, amazing staff. read more

They offer a welcoming atmosphere with multiple TVs, making it an ideal spot for watching sports. The food was solid, the service was attentive and friendly. Overall, Coaches Corner provides a solid dining experience with a focus on great service. read more

I went for lunch on a weekday during their opening week. The place was moderately busy but there seemed to be plenty of staff. We were seated quickly and then took a while for our server to come get our drink order. After while she brought the drinks and we placed our food order. We ordered the nachos as an appetizer for the table, I got a set of the boneless wings (with no fries) and the other people at the table ordered the regular wings (with no fries). Food took a while to come out. Everything came out at once. Both ordered of wings had fries, but our server assured us that they would be taken off the bill. The boneless wings were... terrible. There was so much breading I'm not sure there was any chicken in the wing. It was very unimpressive. The fries taste about like Sam's Club waffle fries that you can make at home in the air fryer. The other part of my party said their regular wings were unimpressive. They had ordered a couple different wing flavors but they just kinda threw them all together on the tray so it was hard to know what you were getting. The nachos were unimpressive as well- not at all worth the $12 price tag. We got our bills and paid. The tab was extremely high. In reviewing my bill (after I paid as their system is to charge you on the handheld) I was charged for a coke (that I didn't have) and charged for the fries (that I didn't order). Even if I had got the fries, they should have been $3 since they were with wings and not the $5 that was on the bill. Either way, those fries are not worth anywhere close to that price. I really wanted to like this place, but it just really didn't hit the mark. Food was mid and expensive for what you get. I realize they're still new and getting things in order and hope they can turn things around, but the initial impression was less than stellar and it's really going to have to take improvement to make me go back. read more

Go here! We were in town as Iowa fans as they faced OU in the Women's NCAA Tournament. Went to the game, and then to Coaches Corner for dinner and drinks postgame. Owner Cory welcomed us right away. Grace was our server and was attentive and efficient. Cory checked on us and got us a fresh ketchup bottle when necessary. Since we'd just lost to OU, he asked the assembled crowd to give Iowa a round of applause, which they did. Numerous patrons stopped by for a quick hello and to wish us well. My wife and I shared chips and queso and a standard cheeseburger, and both were very good. An excellent experience overall, and I'm hoping we can follow other Iowa sports teams to Norman in the future and when we do we will for sure be repeat customers of Coaches Corner. read more

This is our second time here! We enjoyed ourselves so much during our first visit for the OU game that we decided to come back. Today is Soul Food Sunday, and the smothered pork was absolutely mouthwatering. The staff is very friendly, and the customer service is outstanding. I appreciate that the owner comes out to check on guests during their dining experience. The restaurant is clean, and the restrooms are well-maintained, which speaks volumes. I highly recommend this place! read more

Visited for the first time this weekend. Expectations were exceeded. Great food and service. Will definitely be back.

We stopped in for lunch prior to the Illinois State Redbirds versus Oklahoma Sooners football game. What a great experience. We were immediately welcomed and treated with the utmost respect. We had a great time and excellent food! The perfect atmosphere before and after the gam! read more

Southern fried ribs, very meaty and seasoned well, your choice of four different sauces! Heisman's burger is excellent! Awesome fries, and sweet potato fries! Great service! Delicious food! read more

The kids burgers are the size of adults burgers and definitely flavorful! We came in late hours when it's typically adults only and they served us kindly and quickly. I saw a sign in there posted about soul food Sundays! read more

We just ate lunch at Coaches Corner! I had the Linebacker Burger as it comes with fries, my husband had 10 Lemon Pepper wings (extra crispy) with ranch dressing and buffalo sauce on the side and we ordered the fried pickles as well. Everything was REALLY, really good and cooked perfectly!! One of the owners was going around and introducing himself and thanking people for coming which I thought was very nice and thoughtful. The waitresses were super friendly and helpful too. We'll come back often! :) read more

This place was unfortunately a let down. While I understand that they're a new business and still getting started, it was unimpressive. The fried pickles were good, although we didn't get the ranch they are supposed to come with. I think the waffle fries would've been good but they were over cooked, and the burger was disappointing. For the price tag, I expected more. I hope that they improve once they are open longer but I can't say we will be back. read more

Great vibes. Good food. Lots of TVs. Great place to watch OU games. The owner is very friendly and he said he's donating 100 turkeys for Thanksgiving!! read more

Breakfast was amazing. Service was friendly and great. Owner stopped by and welcomed us. Highly recommend. read more

They have great service and awesome burgers It's a clean environment and we also enjoyed the nachos

I came on a Monday during their Happy Hour deals. My waitress was friendly, but didn't know about what their "Burger Special" contained. I got pretzels and beer cheese, an all-American cheeseburger, and fries for around $16. The amount of the food was great for the price, but the quality was mid. The pretzels and cheese were definitely the best item. The fries were decent, they had a good texture, but need seasoning. The burger was very bland and greasy, although I do like that they toasted the bun. Overall, I would not choose to eat there again over other options. read more

Fries were good, service was underwhelming. Was 1 of 2 tables in the entire place and still had problems with orders.

Granted I got food from here on DoorDash but I got the chicken bacon ranch wrap. It was utterly awful, it was the dryest chicken I've ever tasted in my life and I got a side of mac n cheese that was super lackluster, the sauce had basically zero seasoning so it was incredibly bland. They also don't advertise all the ingredients they put in the wrap and I like things more on the plain side. Regardless it was like tasting leather and I only had a few bites of the wrap--waste of money sadly read more

One star for Tuesday nights. Y'all need to get rid of the bingo guy. The first time we were there and bingo was going on we didn't even know it was a thing. The games were done by just a guy with a laptop and and the voice was by the programit. I was watching a game but my wife and everyone who was playing were having a blast. There were families with kids there an it was great. This new guy has run us off from coming in on Tuesday nights. In fact while writing this I am sitting in my jeep trying to figure out where else to go from here because I cannot stand to listen to that. I notice there are only about five cars in the parking lot and two customers just came out the door and said WTF to each other because they were tired of listening to it. I Love this place, it has become a regular for me, the food is great, the staff is great, it is a great atmosphere to watch a game, but just can't do it on Tuesday's if the same guy is going to be there on the mic. Probably the nicest guy in the world but it's very loud and very corny and just ruins the experience. read more

Service was great everyone friendly and welcoming and good food. Real sports bar with a lot of tv's

OUTSTANDING FOOD AND SERVICE. This is the place to go grab an awesome burger, great sweet tea and the Soul Food is perfection. We will be back for sure. Everyone needs to eat a meal here....you'll love it! read more

My wife and I ate here recently. The service was friendly and great. The menu is limited but we were told it will grow. We had the fried pickles, the American Cheeseburgers, with waffle fries and onion straws. The food was delicious. Everyone was welcoming and there were TVs all around tuned to different games. The owners greeted us as we came in and stopped by our table to see how things were going. Overall, we found the ambience to be nice. We look forward to going back again. read more

I went the first week they were open. The service was very good, food fair. I had the chef salad. I probably try something different next time. They need a bigger menu. But I would definitely go again. read more

This is such a cool place. We came to watch the chiefs and have a bite to eat. The food was really good and the service was top notch. I would recommend this to anyone. The place was super clean and the restrooms. We we'll maintained. read more

Do yourself a favor. try this place! The menu is limited right now, I get that. But what that says to me is these guys are trying to get it right, not just doing everything OK....getting things down then moving on to the next challenge. Who even does that anymore? Id rather have great wings, crispy catfish and unexpectedly, fantastic scrambled eggs, than have mediocre food with lots to choose from. "All things are difficult before they are easy" Thomas Fuller...Right?! (anyone heard of Chick-Fil-A?). Their combinations are unique, the owners are very friendly, out front checking on operations and satisfaction, service was outstanding, food came out fast and hot and everything was very good all the way down to the hush puppies & toast. So if you eat out, these guys deserve a shot. New, different and delicious is a welcome addition to our wonderful city read more

Service was good but the food was below average. The decor is very bland. Would be great if it were draped in OU memorabilia. The owners are former players. Let's deck it out in a ton of stuff that focuses on great OU coaches. Still, the food is not worth the price. read more

I felt horrible for our server. She was the only server in the entire building and was training a new girl. She said it was just her and the manager managing the floor. There was one bartender. One cook that I could see and a runner for food. We were seated and waited atleast 15 minutes before we even received menu's. Then it was another 15 minutes before I received my sweet tea. My husbands bud light didn't come out until after our food did. He got wings, as they were having a special on them. They were good size but very fatty. I got the brisket bacon burger. It was good. I ordered sweet potato fries, but was given regular fries and when I asked, they said they ran out of sweet potato fries and decided to bring me regular instead. She could see that I would've liked to at least been told, so she took them off of the ticket, as the fries are a separate charge from the $15 hamburger. We spent $47 for the two of us and we were there almost 2 hours to get wings and a burger. We probably won't be back. I sympathized with the poor waitress and she said to not be surprised if we see her running for the hills. And joked for us to open our car door so she could jump in to run away. LOL I don't blame her though. read more
