The atmosphere is the only thing that keeps it from getting a full 5/5. The place is exactly what you would expect at face-value from a Mexican-style sports bar: brightly colored decor, sufficient televisions for viewing, efficient use of space for seating while still being wide-open enough for comfort. My only real issue is why why why am I hearing depressing country music for ambiance? For how lively the atmosphere is, I want to hear music to at least match it. Spanish music is what I'd expect, but I'd also accept any other form of upbeat music. If your clientele prefers the sad, boohoo country music, then make your identity match that: more bland colors, darker lighting, etc. I continue to come back because the food is at the quality it is, but I'd come back way more regularly if I didn't have to listen to depressing music while trying to enjoy my experience.

String Sports Brewery is, at first glance, a brewery. But spend a few minutes inside and you'll…read morerealize it's also a quiet tribute to basketball culture, local loyalty, and unexpectedly onion ring excellence. I arrived unaware of its history, but the owner's love for basketball is unmistakable, and the locals reflect that same devotion... not just to the sport, but to the space itself. There's an ease here, a sense that people aren't just passing through. I took a seat at the bar, did what one does in such environments, and ordered an IPA. It was solid... confident, balanced, exactly what you'd hope for. But then came the onion rings, which I ordered based on a subtle but unmistakable social cue: everyone else seemed to be eating them. Reader, they were correct. These were not mere onion rings. These were structurally sound, texturally precise, and philosophically complete. Large, fully cooked onions, no trace of that unpleasant raw bite, encased in a crisp, golden coating that somehow maintained its integrity from first bite to last. Crunchy, consistent, and deeply satisfying. Naturally, I paired them with blue cheese dressing because I'm from upstate New York, and that is not a preference, it is doctrine.

I arrived a little bit later than the rest of my group and they had already ordered several apps for the table. I did not come hungry this trip, so I just munched on the boiled peanuts. They were spectacular. The service was wonderful! The employees were all very engaged with the customers. And what a great place to watch the game! An abundance of TVs and what's better than hanging out with fellow jags fans?! Plenty of seating, indoor and outdoor options. And just a fun place to be. I'm officially a fan now and will for sure check this out on a more regular basis. No pics because I was too busy being blown away by the Jags performance today! Duuuuuvallllll

Laura was treating me to lunch for my birthday that has since passed. This was our first time here…read more We've heard good things about the place. When we walked in, we saw a huge table of senior citizens, maybe about 20-30! We decided to stay. There was only one Bartender and one Waitress. The place was packed. We sat by the window seats-that was all that was left to sit at. The Waitress was very attentive(even though she was slammed). Today's special was shrimp baskets. Shrimp could be cooked three ways. I chose fried w/onion rings(fresh-not frozen rings) & and a 50/50 tea. My meal was delicious. Laura had blackened shrimp w/broccoli. We both enjoyed our meals and had a great conversation. I had $40.00 cash on me and Laura had a card to treat me, but the internet and card machine had just gone down. So I paid for the meal and tip. Laura Cash App'd me $40.00. Pros:big place with a very friendly atmosphere. Great service and food. Cons:it was out of their control that the machine went down. Recommend:Yes

It's a sit anywhere kind of place but with that it takes them over 10 minutes to bring menus to the table. All 3 times I had to ask for plates and silverware. The food was okay nothing spectacular. The last time, and final time I gave them a shot, the server we had seemed to be in an awful mood and was extremely short with everyone when ordering. She didn't know what beers they had so my friend had to get up and go to the bar to see. It just seems like she was having a bad day and possibly weeded but her attitude left a bad taste in my mouth and she said she had worked there from when it was still dicks wings. It gave the vibe of "I'm tired and I want to go home so hurry up and order". Not very welcoming.

(Took forever to get drinks) Also, they ran out of most of the beers the people at our table were drinking. The food is overpriced for the frozen stuff you get. I had the fish and chips, fries were cold and the fish tasted like Gorton's frozen fish. My husband got the fried shrimp, he said it tasted like Gorton's frozen shrimp. A few people got wings and they looked dry and overcooked and were tiny. They advertise Jaeger for 5.50 on happy hour but neglect to tell you that if you make it a bomb they add 2.50 to each one for the Red Bull. For that price you should get a whole can of Red Bull with each one but that's not the case. Overall we had a great time because of who we were with but the food and service are severely lacking. Huge waste of $98 for sure!! We will not be back.

Friendly, attentive, and on top of everything from start to finish. Service like that always makes a difference and we really appreciated her. We grabbed a table on the patio because, well... it was 80° and Florida weather begs for outdoor dining. Great vibe, relaxed atmosphere, and a perfect spot to unwind. We only ordered appetizers, but the Kicked Up Nachos absolutely stole the show. Loaded, flavorful, and done right. I would come back just for those alone. The wings, on the other hand... meh. Mediocre at best. The "hot" barely registered and the Nashville was only slightly better. If you're a true wing lover looking for heat, you'll probably be disappointed. If you're on the wimpy side with spice, this might actually be your place. Overall, I loved the atmosphere, the service, and those nachos. I'd definitely come back -- just skipping the wings next time and going all-in on the Kicked Up Nachos.

It's tucked into a kind of sketchy-looking industrial park, but once you're inside, it feels cozy and welcoming. They've got a great variety of craft brews on tap -- lots of flavor options if you like trying new things. Service was fast and friendly. That said, the food situation is pretty minimal. Think bar snacks -- pre-packaged pretzels (we had the bacon-flavored ones, tasty but probably something you could grab at Publix). Would've loved some fresh food or food truck action. We came out specifically to support a local cat rescue event, which was awesome. Major props to the brewery for partnering with the volunteers and even offering to help promote adoption efforts to their regulars. You can tell they care about their community. There's also a side area with extra seating and a bunch of board games -- most are donated, some missing pieces, but still a fun, low-key vibe. Makes a nice third space to hang with friends and kill a few hours.
