Southport Betty's

Awesome spot right in the neighborhood! Great sports bar with great cocktails - hard to find that combo. Their food is dang good! Small menu of bar bites but wings are tasty and their burger is too. Love the 2 sides of the bar and the layout. Great for big groups. The other side is enormous and in the summer they’ll have the windows open and patio alive. Just wish they had a pool table 🫢

Amazing new sports bar that's opened, with a ton of TVs and a huge outdoor patio, and a great bar menu. We came on a Saturday and it was totally packed but we snagged a table outside. It's really nice that you order via QR code on your table and our food came out super quick. Def recommend the wings and spinach artichoke dip! So happy to have a new spot in the neighborhood to watch some games and hang out outside.

Omg! First Timer! So good! The SPB Old Fashioned was on point. Loved the cheese curds with the spicy, garlicky, herb infused SPB secret sauce. The truffle fries were crunchy and light. Just yum! Had the Mediterranean Sandwich it was packed with flavor and spice and a herby aioli. The chicken was juicy and cooked to perfection and the veggies were crisp tender. Loved the homemade hummus and giardenaire. The ambiance was all glassy jade green subway tiles and dark wood and walls were cleverly decorated with book covers. Just go! It will be your new place to grab a cocktail and a delish bite to eat. Nick our server was friendly and efficient!

Kind of expected more out of this place considering the price tag of the food items. The BLT had really good flavor but the bacon was hard and chewy. My friend had the chicken sandwich and said it was a good idea, but just tasted like chicken wings on a bun. The food has to be ordered through a WR code which is fine in theory, but kind of annoying if ever there is a problem with your food or you need anything else.

First time here and loved it! Honestly, love the concept of not waters or waitresses. Food came out quick and hot. Garbing drinks at my own pace and not having to wait on when they were coming back made my experience great. Nice place for games too, most table are 8 seaters. Can’t wait to come back.

So this seems like a fun sports bar - but just to be clear, they are not interested in serving families. They weirdly offer a kids menu but from the moment we walked in it was obvious that we were not welcome there because we had two children. The food was actually pretty good, but the weird QR code set up for food means you have no one to talk to if something goes wrong. Had to hunt someone down to clean the table before we sat down, and the bar staff just seemed annoyed we asked them for anything other than drinks. I think if you are looking for a fun scene to grab drinks this is perfect, but just want to warn other families that despite the availability of a kids menu this is not a space that is particularly welcoming of those with children.

Awesome new sports bar with a huge patio and great food!

Came here with a group of girls for my birthday for a Sunday funday + bears game and it was PERFECT!!! Tons of tables, indoor and outdoor, tvs no matter where you look! Can’t wait to come back here in the summer. Owners and bartenders were so nice. Awesome decor. Good vibes!!!

Great new spot! My friends who live in the neighborhood have been anxiously awaiting this place. I thought it had a good atmosphere, and I was delighted to see that it has a patio for warmer months! I came with a group of friends. It was nice that each table had a QR code so you could order what you wanted. Food is your typical American bar food and solid. Drinks were decent and decently priced. I'd come back!

Bunch of us came for a Saturday football game. You go up to bar to order and bartenders were great! Very attentive and SUPER friendly! Drinks reasonable price. Order food through the QR code at the table - came out quick and tasted great. Ambiance is fun! Sports bar with plenty of TVs. Only downside- they don't play any sound besides when it's the Bears!! The crowd was clearly there for the Saturday UT Georgia game and they wouldn't play any sound :/ great local bar!

Very excited for this new establishment in this neighborhood! Fun drink menu and has potential to be a classic go-to with buds. Great place with cute decor to recharge after visiting nearby stores!

Came here to watch some football. I knew people were interested in what the Munchwrap Supreme looked like so I took one for the team and ordered it to post here. Pretty solid. Nothing crazy but would order again after I get through the rest of the menu. Side Caesar was good too.

Best new spot in the city. Awesome food. Amazing staff. Classic feel with a killer patio. This place has everything.

Haven't seen any detailed reviews yet, so here it is: In my opinion, this spot needs to declare its intentions bc I think it is another Broken Barrel disguised as an elevated sports bar. My biggest issue is the concept itself. Very similar vibe to Broken Barrel, Reveler, Common Wealth, yet there aren't any servers for the tables. When you walk in there isn't a hostess and you sit wherever you want. There is a QR menu to order food to your table, but you have to open a separate tab and walk to the bar for drinks. The food tab automatically adds a 20% tip that my dinner partner accidentally paid despite having no service aside from the food being dropped at your table. When we were done eating I had to stand in a small line at the bar to close my drink tab. If you want water you have to go get it yourself from the Gatorade jug like you're at Cody's pub. The food itself was fine for bar food, but nothing beyond "okay". I'd say this place will appeal to the young Southport families for a bit while it is new, until everyone figures out it is just another neighborhood pub without anything novel. I expect that it will become just another place for the 25-35 year olds while trying to be more. I was standing at the bar waiting for a server for a drink when a (assuming) manager walked past me and chatted with the 5-6 guys wearing "Southport Betty's" hats at the bar seating while pouring (assuming) free shots for them. Not the best first impression, and as Jon Taffer of Bar Rescue would say, not a good business decision to give away liquor. Lastly, the beer menu is boring. So many great Chicago breweries and they choose to have the basic tap menu that every other bar in the neighborhood has. Just another bar.

We had really hoped for a more family friendly neighborhood restaurant with great food. The outdoor patio vibe is great, and indoor is fine, but definitely more of a sports bar vibe than a neighborhood dining spot. Would love to see a more interesting menu, like worthy of ordering takeout. Also, there is no table service. QR code only and you have to go to the bar for any/all drinks. Prices are reasonable. Staff is friendly.

Was involved in a surprise party here. Staff was amazing. Drinks were great. Had finger food for 40 people that was delicious! I would love to go back and take advantage of the outdoor patio.

Awesome new spot in the neighborhood! The indoor bar is huge, making it easy to order and the service is fast and friendly. The outdoor beer garden is gorgeous-equal parts cozy while also providing ample seating. Didn't order food, but am stoked to do so during football season and plan to spend lots of time here

Seems like they are just opening and we want to like this place. Raspberry smash was a good drink. The food however still needs work. The fish tacos were not good and the soft taco shells tasted like they had been microwaved. The brats was served with several slices made in the brats - odd! The food was ordered from table/QR code and so there was no one to tell!!! Also drink orders had to be made at the bar so we ended up with 2 tabs. And finally, their high chairs don't fit any of the outdoor seating and only some of the indoor seating. The staff acted as if they could have cared less. Might suggest they at least check in at each table. Too bad because we had high hopes for this location, previously Diag!

Terrible/absentee service- all 3 meals wrong, "owner" could've cared less. Order food through QR on one tab, walk to bar to order water or drinks, separate tab.. bartender kept saying he's from NY, justifies bad service? Really hoping it was gonna be good but workers and "owners" make it terrible. And happy to chat if you want to dispute your terrible approach.

Place absolutely rocks. Fifty times better & way cleaner than the previous bar. Tall boys are a great price, shout out to the pbr & old style. The food is really good, and honestly could be more expensive & Id still come back. The servers were super cool & the chicks are smoke shows, highly recommend.

The space is large and never feels over crowded, the outdoor space is great as well! I love the QR code ordering eliminating the pressure to order each time a waitress comes by - being able to order at your own leisure is ideal. Food is great and so are the cocktails! All staff are super friendly and accommodating. Will be returning!!

Amazing vibes and amazing food! Bartenders were super friendly and they have awesome giant lemonade drinks! I got the Zelda and it was so refreshing! 10/10 recommend this for a good neighborhood spot.

Not sure whose idea was to make people order their food on their phone and then have to go to bar for any drinks (including water).. but it doesn't make for a good dining experience. Obviously this 'concept' of not having wait service is a ploy to save money, but those savings aren't reflected in their prices. The food is good, but nothing too different from other similar spots in neighborhood.

All time spot for food, drinks, a game. Great patio too. service is on point and everyone there made sure people had everything they need.

I checked out Southport Betty's this weekend, and I can definitely see this becoming my new go-to spot. The staff are super nice, atmosphere is fun and lively, and their outdoor patio is awesome! Can't wait to come back!

Great new spot on Southport! So glad it's opened in the neighborhood- the place has a great vibe, friendly staff and an huge outdoor patio. Loved the food and drink options, can't wait to go back asap!

A great new neighborhood spot with an amazing staff. A great spot to come and have a drink and watch a game. Really excited to try all the food and drink on the menu. Really diverse options. Let's not forget the amazing patio!

A friend and I live in the neighborhood and tried SB for Sat lunch. The bouncer was not the least bit friendly. He did not respond to my hello. We walked in not too many customers yet. The bartender said sit anywhere. You had to order food from the app using your phone. No one to answer menu questions. You had to get your own drinks from the bar. They added the drinks on to your food tab. The food was okay bar food. Nothing interesting or so great that I would be back. I had a mushroom burger( no meat) and my friend had fish tacos. The runner and busboy were efficient. The manager did not ask how things were going which is weird for a brand new bar.Totally impersonal! We were there for two hours. The place started filling up with college football fans so we left. I like to be acknowledged at a neighborhood place. I was really hoping this place would be fun and have good food. It had neither. The corner has been empty for years.
