Rookies Sports Bar and Grill

"Columbia City’s reliable jock spot serves solid bar bites (such as the Knockout Nachos, topped with chili con queso and pickled jalapeños) and stiff drinks in a family-friendly setting, with reclaimed floors and a shuffleboard bar top. If things get too crowded, don’t forget about neighbor the Backyard, which has an outdoor patio and more food options." - Harry Cheadle, Eater Staff

"Close games can change in a matter of milliseconds, but sometimes, nature calls. At Rookies you won’t have to decide between taking a bathroom break and possibly missing a big play. This Columbia City spot has thought of everything—and by everything, we mean there are TVs in the bathroom. (Thank you, Rookies.) For a classic sports bar experience, have a server in a Seahawks jersey bring you a plate of waffle fries or fried mac and cheese balls while you lick bacon salt from a Bloody Mary rim.

"Columbia City’s reliable jock spot serves solid bar bites (such as the Irish nachos, topped with beer cheese and shredded corned beef) and stiff drinks. The tacos are usually hit, as are the jalapeños stuffed with goat cheese, and there is some limited outdoor seating on the sidewalk with the TVs in full view." - Gabe Guarente
