Sports & Social Bethesda

The fries were bomb. The place was packed for the Tank vs Roach fight but it was fun. Service was still good as well. Had a fun time.

Food was pretty good, came out fairly quick and our waitress was super sweet. Cant beat the happy hour prices as well. Only complaint was there was NO heating in the building. I couldnt even enjoy the food because of how cold I was. The staff was even wearing sweaters and hats. If its 20-something degrees outside, PLEASE turn on the heating. Will try it out again in the summer.

The food we enjoyed was quite delightful, arriving at our table in a timely manner. Our host, Gladis, was exceptionally kind and made my family and me feel genuinely welcomed throughout our visit. Additionally, we were pleased to find that the happy hour prices were very reasonable, adding to the overall positive experience. I had a very good time

The food was pretty decent. But my server made it all the better. We had a server named Gladis and she was absolutely awesome. Knew the menu from front to back and was super polite and extremely knowledgeable. Definitely will be going back because I love great customer service.

The place is okay and is always a hit or miss. It can be fun but it depends on every hour of each day. As far as food goes I have only tried the burger and fries. The burger was honestly really good, juicy, on a brioche bun and they have specials for burgers on Mondays. The fries were not overly great and mildly crispy. I rate this place a 3 because this place is way over priced and I've had so many issues here with the staffing, seating, ordering. Again the place is a hit or miss. Also as for the drinks the well liquor is $10 which is just outrageous. The food is way over priced for bar food. Realistically this place is okay. It has a ton of TVs, but don't expect to have too much fun here as it usually stays very boring with the crowd.

We came here for the Commanders/Eagles game and it was so much fun. The food was great, I had the nachos and my husband had the burger. Our server was excellent and friendly even though it was so busy. The music and dj were amazing. It is a loud atmosphere so the music can be loud for some. There was a long line to get in but the staff was attentive and we had reservations so it made our process super smooth and quick to grab our table. Definitely recommend.

Service wasn't great, it took forever for the server to initially come to our table. I ordered a simple Jameson and ginger ale and it tasted like straight soda. My wife had a Jack akd coke and hers was the same. House salad came out in this little tiny bowl where you couldn't even mix it up. Then our entre, which we both ordered the "southwest bowl" literally tasted like rice, beans, and sour cream. In addition how is this a "sports bar" with all these tv's and no women's basketball on none, and ask we did ask. Main idea of the story is nothing about this experience was good, we didn't drink the drinks or eat the food. Visit with care......

It's an alright place with a good atmosphere. Most of the games were gone when I went. Beautiful day but no one on the patio I bet it's nice during the Football season. Beast burger cheese didn't coat the burger it just sat on top lukewarm and wasn't melted so pretty lackluster. Server was polite and worked quickly.

I visit Sport & Social in Bethesda occasionally, and overall, it's usually a good experience. The atmosphere is lively, and the staff are friendly, but service times can be slow due to the large crowds. If you plan to order food and drinks before an event, I'd recommend arriving at least 30 minutes early. The food here is excellent--great quality, generous portions, and very reasonably priced. For the Usyk vs. Fury fight, I called and emailed in advance to request seating directly in front of the screen. Unfortunately, when I arrived, I was seated at a table where the view was partially blocked by a Christmas tree, making it difficult to watch. But the manager was incredibly professional and attentive. They resolved the issue by offering to adjust the seating and even move the tree. Additionally, the manager assured me that the fight would eventually be broadcast on the big screen. While some Ravens fans weren't thrilled with the temporary switch, it was great to see that the staff made an effort to accommodate all patrons, including those there for the fight. Overall, the manager's professionalism and willingness to resolve the issue turned the situation around, and I left with a positive impression. ( To the guy who posted about not seeing the Ravens game because of the Usyk vs. Fury fight, this is not true. The Ravens game was literally on the big screen the entire time, and they only started broadcasting the fight around the 8th round or so. However, the Ravens game was still being shown on the smaller screens)

Ambiance- I been to this location over 10x. Every time the clientele seems very unfriendly, unhappy, and stressed out. Possibly due to the gambling? The fries and chicken bites are good. Milkshake fantastic! Wings, burger, and nachos- so so. Could have better drink glasses. They seemed to have cheap'ed out a lot of the little things.

Sport & social is the place to be in pike & rose after hours! With a huge screen for sports games and multiple bars, this restaurant is a great hangout spot for groups. My friends and I came in on a Thursday night after watching a movie at the IPIC next door. The lower bar was pretty full but the bartender still managed to greet us, take our orders, and get us our drinks in record time. The drinks were pretty standard, they have a full bar and they also offer pitchers of some drinks. We ordered boneless bbq wings which came out fast and hot. They offer select items on their late night menu, the wings and fries hit the spot. Their nachos are also massive and great for groups. Overall I'd recommend sports & social as they stay open late, parking in the garage is so easy, and have ample seating. We will definitely be back!

I made a reservation 10 days in advance and the restaurant canceled my reservation 2 days before. I called multiple times, left a voicemail, and emailed them but didn't receive a response. I doubt I will ever receive a response at this point. What a dissapointment

This place gets a really trashy crowd. Disrespectful towards fellow patrons and employees, lots of profanity and just an overall low class environment. If you want to get in a fight in Southern Rockville/ Northern Bethesda, this is your place. Two stars because the food is pretty good.

I really loved this place! A great downtown location and wonderful ambiance and service that is likewise. I enjoyed the varied menu and the drinks. It had a very diverse menu that accommodated everyone. This is my 5th time visiting, so I guess I am fan!

Came back a few more times and ordered The Southwest..the bowl itself is healthy, prepped with fresh avocado, black beans, pico de gallo, red cabbage slaw, white rice (preferred to have been seasoned with salt but mixing the chimichurri ranch helped) grilled chicken & topped with tortilla chips. My only complaint is the chicken... it was burnt on the edges & was not enjoyable so there were parts I had to cut out. The Quesabirria egg rolls were CRUncHy & juicy, the consome soaked up that appetizer! Lastly the fish & chips came piping hot when served with a tablespoon of coleslaw was hoping for a bigger serving but was overall delicious.

This was my second time here for lunch on a Saturday. (Sorry, no pictures from our first visit.) Long story, short: we are going to keep coming back to try more of the menu. The first time, we got a burger and cheesesteak. The fries were hands down the best part of the meals: they were pretty incredible fries. The burger was good - not the best and the same with the cheesesteak. But the meal was strong enough to try more things a second time. This time, I had the Nashville Hor Chicken Sandwich, which was sooo good. Crispy, juicy chicken with great flavor, on a brioche bun... awesome. Hubby had the chicken tender player with fries and asked for a bun and mayo to make himself a simple sandwich. Fries were still great, even if they weren't as hot or of the fryer as our last visit. Good beer and spirits selection, too!

The food was excellent. Reasonable prices, especially considering its inside the casino. Service was good, but slow. If you are serious about watching the big game, then try to watch it here. The screens are enormous. It can be loud!

Stopped by Wednesday night and it was karaoke night, and it was awful. There was a man that wasn't of color rapping a song and he used racial slurs more than once. No one stopped him or anything and we all heard it. It was honestly insane, disrespectful, and disgusting. Additionally, the place had sticky floors, the bar was a mess and we could barely get service without chasing the bartenders down. You also couldn't hear anything because the music was so loud. They also had a dog's inside, not sure if that's a thing in Bethesda but I'm sure the people eating might not have liked it. I don't plan on coming back here at all.

So I love coming here for the giant screen to watch fights and ball, I'm literally here right now trying to watch UFC....that being said the bartenders are soooooooooooooo slow and unorganized. Leaving drinks on empty for 10-15 mins with half the bar stools empty, it's wild, there was literally no one behind the bar for 5 mins at 10:45, I almost got behind there myself to refresh everyone on alcohol. They are seriously missing out on revenue by the lack of effort and organization, maybe poor management and training??? They need to be faster, more efficient, and trying to upsell on food and drink. Please for the love of sports bars everywhere, do better, I believe in you!!! Also the nachos are too salty, cold, and flavorless, boneless wings are good to go

Writing the review now because I'm not likely to return. Sports & Social is great for large groups and for watching a sports event on one of the many nicely sized television screens. The beer menu is passable though unremarkable, the zero proof cucumber soda was a much more interesting option for me. The pretzel looks beautiful which makes the taste that much more of a letdown - completely without flavor, and the crumb is far too light and fluffy for a proper pretzel. The dipping cheese sauce is just slightly better than Velveeta. It's a fun setting and a great location, but this probably would have been more my scene 10 years ago.

Many of us wanted to enjoy the game on Saturday; instead, we were confronted by a bitter, aggressive, and arrogant management (Jose). We asked the manager, José, to play the audio so we could hear the sport of he wasn't going to show the fame on the bug screen. When this request was made by the guest several times by many guests, Jose told the crowd that if we did not like how he managed syle, we could go home and watch the game. Many guests walked out and left. Many of your guests have boycotted social sports in Bethesda until you change the management.

Fun sports bar. Had the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and it was solid. Kristina the barkeep was awesome. Very friendly and efficient. Decor was just what you expected. Lots of tvs and roomy. Not too loud. Good tap selection. You'll enjoy eating here and catching a game.

Taco Tuesday was a success! Their size and flavors are great, different from your basic options and each just $4! I paired my meal with a spicy margarita and was not disappointed! Great staff very friendly and the ambiance feels like a party! Good time with friends or family!

Had a fun time watching Ravens play here. Great atmosphere. The bar was really pumping. Give props to the lady bartenders in the back. They handled the crowd like a champ. As for the waitress service, who ran the floor level tables , they can definitely need some improvement. We sat by the tables by the bar. And waited for 30 minutes only had one waitress came over only to came told us she'll be right back, but she didn't come back until an hour later, fortunately, we were able to order everything we need through the bartenders. And for the rest the time we were there, that particular waitress never came back to check on us. That was just horrible service. Regardless, how busy you are you still check come back to check on your tables. As for food , we ordered both regular chicken wings and boneless wings, hoagie sandwich, crispy shrimp, spicy crispy, tuna, beef tacos and chocolate cookie skillet And, of course variety of drinks . Among everything we ordered , the only thing that didn't taste good was the hoagie sandwich, it tasted like someone poured half bottle of vinegar on top of the sandwich. But the rest the food was very delicious. And for bar food, I have to say the quality of their food is decent. Definitely recommend by @winedinenvacay and will return . And next time we will remember to make reservations way ahead, especially on a game day.

Went for happy hour. Please take advantage of this spot well cocktails 6 dollars with some generous appetizers, the pretzel is worth it for sure. The ambiance is friendly and sporty , you can see any games on multiple screens. Two big bar areas and beer pong tables. The bartenders are friendly and their generosity with the crafting of drinks will leave a huge smile on your face.

Great sports pub! I had a few hours to kill waiting for flight and couldnt have found a better spot. If I lived near here I would be there weekly. Ate burger and wings and they were perfect. Service was exceptional too.

From the moment I stepped into Sports Social, I knew this was no ordinary sports bar. The plethora of TVs, each one offering a clear view from any angle, is just the beginning. The centerpiece, a massive Jumbotron-style screen, is a marvel. It's not only massive but interactive, making you feel as if you're right in the middle of the action. They even showcase live scenes from within the bar, adding an immersive, almost surreal experience to your game watching. But Sports Social isn't just about what you can see; it's also about what you can taste. The menu is a delightful surprise, straying far from typical sports bar fare. Each dish is crafted with care, delivering mouth-watering flavors that perfectly complement the viewing experience. And let's talk about the drinks! Whether you're a cocktail aficionado or a beer enthusiast, Sports Social has you covered. Their fun, innovative cocktails are a must-try, each one mixed to perfection. For beer lovers, the wide selection is impressive, catering to all palates from the casual to the connoisseur. Sports Social isn't just a bar; it's an experience. It combines the excitement of being at the game with the comfort of a top-notch bar. This place is a touchdown, a home run, and a three-pointer all rolled into one. Highly recommended for any sports fan, or anyone looking for a great time!

I've been impressed by the service and, for the most part, by the food. I will say that the potato chip appetizer did have some very undercooked chips and there was not enough dip considering the size of the basket of chips. The bar staff is very friendly and the drinks are on point.

My friend is one of the managers at this location. It was a great for watching the game or the fight. Good ambiance. It gets packed as it gets later so if you want a table, go early. Food was delish. Drinks as well. I fully recommend.

First time here - arrived at 1:15pm on a Sunday for NFL games. We put our name in the waitlist but there were no tables available for at least another hour. We lucked out and sat at the bar. The downside was the open doors to the side letting in cold air and it looked like they were understaffed behind the bar. I ordered the turkey burger & it was good but I had no idea it was going to be drug through the garden. My husband got the cheeseburger and it came out a bit over cooked. All in all - the staff behind the bar were great. The TVs are awesome for game watching. There is a FanDuel sportsbook on site. There's indie and outside seating - they also allow dogs which we thought was cool. There are 2 parking garages within walking distance but the bar does not validate parking.

Went on a crowded Saturday night. The music was so loud, it was more like a nightclub than a sports bar with dancing in the middle. Maybe different during the day or weeknight. Had a couple of drinks and a small bite to eat, but could hardly have a conversation. Everything was just ok.

Food was great. A bit overpriced. Beer was good. I recommend if you want to have a good time

I got the southwest bowl tonight and it was good, just ask for xtra dressing. It's a little dry without it. It was a pretty huge bowl I couldn't eat it all. Service was good too. Sat outside due to the weather perfect.

Great place to catch the game, grab a cocktail and place a few bets! Staff is attentive, food is good. The DJ drops a few beats during timeouts and halftime! Good spot, check it out!

I've been here a couple times ! I think the neighbourhood needed a fair priced social bar in the area. It stands out because the others at pike and rose are more family / reservation style restaurants! This is a great walk in bar with an adequate selection of American food and drinks at a fair price! They have a DJ at night, haven't been during the day, and they play good music while you eat. It's great for groups of friends/ happy hours! I've never had bad service here but depending on the night (game / event nights) there's going to be a slowdown in service. The tuna nachos (pictured) were good and I've had the loaded nachos which comes as a huge portion size compared to this one. The drinks are also pretty good!

Had a great night for a friends birthday at sports & social, bee sting wings extra crispy, smoky, spicy, with a nice kick. 10/10 on flavor and finish on the wings they were crispy as requested. Great prices on beers, along with being able to submit some sports bets at the FanDuel registers. Staff were really nice, and quick with service at the bar. Will be returning as soon as I can.

Had a great experience at the Sports and Social last Saturday August 3rd. We were greeted with our waitress, Gladys who went far and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience. She made excellent recommendations of food and drinks. . We also met the General Manager, Jose who came out to introduce himself, and asked us how was everything. The atmosphere is great, with all the large screens playing the Olympics. The vibe of the crowd is extremely welcoming. I will definitely come back to this location and recommend it to my family and friends. Thanks again for making our party of 4 experience one to remember!

Went on a Thursday evening & this place was very busy. We ordered the pretzel & bbq wings and surprisingly they were really great!

Hard to believe this place only is rated three stars after my first visit tonight. Both D and (female bartender, so sorry I don't remember your name) were crazy-busy but still treated every customer like they were special. Chicken wings and Zombies were really good. Chicken wings could use a little habanero or something hotter than their bee-sting sauce but they were huge, meaty, delicious and naked - and stayed crispy to the last bite. Bravo on the wings! They have a bunch of big-screen tv's and the ambiance is perfect for sports fans, tall ceilings and one main tv that must be about 18 feet wide. If you're a football fan this is THE place to be on the weekends in Rockville!

Great sports bar with delicious cocktails! Can't speak to the food, but if you're looking for somewhere perfect to catch a game and have drinks, this is your spot. The ambiance is welcoming and families and large groups will have plenty of space. The service at the bar was quick and accommodating on a Saturday afternoon.

We stopped here for a drink after seeing a movie at IPIC. We didn't do much that required personalized interaction and none was offered. We ordered drinks, paid for them, and drank them. Servicible and basic. I would try the outdoor seating when the weather permits.

Came to Sports & Social for happy hour recently. The space is huge - lots of seating options, two bar areas, and big screens all around. However, when we arrived, we entered from the side entrance and weren't sure where the main hostess stand was so we ended up standing for awhile because none of the staff noticed us or pointed us in the right direction if they did. The service was decent, our waitress was friendly but she kept forgetting portions of our order when the place wasn't busy at all. We might have been her only table at the time. The happy hour drink options were decent too. I was hoping that more of the unique cocktails from the main menu would also be on the happy hour menu but the happy hour menu was pretty basic. We ordered the nachos with added Korean short rib and some boneless chicken to share. Both mark options were tasty but I do feel like the nachos were overpriced with the short rib addition, because the meat we got was mostly shreds and silvers of short rib - not nearly enough to justify the additional cost of $10+. Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to try out any of the games while we were there but I do think that is a unique that feature the space offers.

I came here for the Grand Opening, and everything was impeccable. I sat at the bar since all of the tables were booked, and the bartenders were terrific as they made the drinks on point. Would definitely come back for the drinks. Other than the drinks, there are several games you can play such as Foosball and Beer Pong!

This place is great if you want to catch a sports game and grab a few drinks alone. Once our party was sat at our table we saw our waiter once within the entire time we were there. Even though he walked by our table several times, he never once came to refill our waters or to check to see if we were interested in something else to eat or drink. If the overall service continues like this, the establishment won't last. On top of the poor service, the music was unnecessarily too loud. You can't have a conversation at your table without yelling across the table. The DJ or whomever was in charge of the music would randomly blare the music as if we were at the club and it was midnight, it was 7pm!

Attended for Cinco De Mayo celebration it was a bit of wait due to the festivities but were seated within the hr. Great atmosphere and strong drinks! The nachos were a little cold so I'd return during calmer times to give it another chance. But definitely a satisfied customer.

RE: FANDUAL SPORTSBOOK 2/17/24 I was at an in person Sportsbook Sports & Social at 11800 Grand Park Ave. in N, Bethesda, Md. 20852) in OCT. 2023 before the Super Bowl 58 game, as I inquired about the SB 58 Coin Toss & a black employee stated that "we only have Heads/Tails" available for the SB 58 Coin Toss during the SB 58 week in FEB. 2024. This was incorrect because when I came in to place a Wager on the HeadsTails result for SB 58 on 2/10 I was informed that "we do offer both teams to win the SB 58 Coin Toss" (\\ as an option 2. Had I was told this specific data back from OCT. 2023, I never would have handicapped the Heads Tails result in the first place. Plus, I would have needed to know this then before any handicapping was initiated by myself as I wanted the Teams selection only. In reference to the Merchant's recent reply, Heads Tails was also not available to be wagered on in OCT. 2023 correct & Teams should have been offered verbally as well for the future during the Super Bowl 58 week in FEB. 2024 & was not. My original issue was only General & not Specific in nature. I was not asking the Merchant in OCT. 2023 to intentionally post up a Super Bowl 58 Coin Toss Betting Line to be wagered on in OCT. 2023 for me. So their reply is not directly related to my original of the General issue. If they can inform me in pers in FEB. 2024, why shouldn't they know that Teams also are available to be wagered on during this same period? Therefore, this Business is at fault 100 percent in their original communications to me. So, I am requesting a $1750. one time free play for the lost Wager of 2-10-24. A. The Merchant's reply was denied. Scott T.

Fun atmosphere, came here for the superbowl and had a blast, interesting crowds. Delicious food and cocktails, shoutout to the bartender amazing services

Ashley is the BEST Bartender in Maryland!!! 12/10. Every drink was made to perfection! Great service and ambiance!

For the second year in a row, my company held a social event at the Sports & Social - Bethesda and for the second year in a row, Olivia and her team did a tremendous job in making our event a great success. They were professional, flexible and great to work with during the planning process as well as during the event. It was a professional environment with a casual and welcoming feel appreciated by us and our guests. The food was excellent and was kept hot and fresh. Will, Kristina, and Josh were fantastic behind the bar all night. Friendly, attentive, and interactive. I highly recommend stopping in or hosting an event here.

Service was so good the first time, we're back within a week. Service is still impeccable. Ask for Alex. He made sure we were taken care of. They're so nice. Food is typical American bar food but done well. Bee Sting wings and the barria egg rolls are a must try. No complaints here. Tried everything on the happy hour menu and didn't break the bank. Might be our new regular spot.

Late Saturday lunch. Not busy. TVs everywhere, sound system playing an odd mix of music - often too loud. Seemed like the staff was bored and playing DJ with the sound system. Food was really not very good. I had the Nashville Chicken sandwich. Heat was very one dimensional; chicken had tendons in it, fries were hot (some) and cold (others). Others in the group had salads - no one finished their plates - food just wasn't that good. Beer was cold and decent selection. If you're looking for a place to watch the game (almost any game) and wager on your phone, you'll probably be really happy here. I wasn't (bah-humbug).

Pretty expensive food. Gets busy. But the food tastes great. They have my favorite wings, bee sting wings. The sauce has a little spicy taste with a touch of tanginess. Best sauce I've had on wings. Make sure to ask for extra bcuz sometimes they don't put enough. Good artichoke dip. And good short rib tacos as well.

Popped in after an event and wanted to grab a bite. Not bad, but also lot sure what I expected. Food - We ordered the Buffalo wings, an impossible burger and a bacon cheese burger. The wings were really good, but the garlic Parmesan were ok. The burger I ordered was supposed to be well done, but it came rare. The French fries that came with the burger were really good; but I couldn't eat the burger. I'm not a person who sends food back to be corrected, I normally pay for that meal and just go on about my business. However when the bill came, the burger was taken off the bill. Service - Our waitress was really nice and brought everything that was requested and checked on us. I hate that I cannot recall her name, but it was in the bar area on last Friday evening. The hostess was nice as well and raved about the bartender Kevin. We didn't order any alcohol, but a lot of people around us had drinks, so I assume Kevin was on a mission.

We had a very disappointing experience at Sports & Social tonight. On the positive side, were seated right away, but things went downhill quickly. We ordered 2 Coors light draft beers. It took a while for them to arrive, and when they did, they were very hazy looking and didn't taste like the right beer, but we went with it and didn't complain. At least 15 minutes went by and there was no sign of our server to get refills and place an order. We finally saw him across the room and flagged him down to place a food order. We both ordered the "Southwest Bowl" with dressing on the side. This is described as "grilled chicken, black beans, avocado, pico de gallo, red cabbage slaw, crispy tortilla strips, cotija, white rice, chimichurri ranch" (both online and in the menu in person). It took forever and when the meals finally arrived there was no chicken and no avocado, and there was dressing mixed in. We had to flag down the waiter again and pointed out the missing items. He said he entered it wrong, but there's no other bowl on the menu that matched what we received. Another 20 minutes later and they brought out chicken and avocado on a plate for us to add to our salad. Although the food did taste good, I definitely won't be back and I don't recommend this place to others.

Went for drinks with friends and shared their nachos. So massive.. the three of us couldn't finish it. They were really good, but wish more of the chips had cheese on them! The drinks were decent and the ambiance was nice. If you like a bar where you can watch sports and chill, this is def for you

Ok! So I came here with some friends to watch the PENS CAPS game. I want to give this place 3.5 stars but since I can't went with 3. Food and ambiance are definitely 4 stars but service was nothing stellar. We honestly felt like we were a bother to be there and it took almost 15 minutes for a server to come to our table. She was very friendly when she was around. It almost felt like she would come to the table and then take a walk around the entire Pike and Rose before she came back or was seen again. The food was honestly much better than expected and is what saved this visit. I'd come back but would choose Quincy's in Gaithersburg over here solely because of the service.

While it was a Friday evening, our waiter took over 30 mins to bring us our bill, that can't be split. I accepted it, they charged us a "facilities fee" on top of tip. What the hell? Since when is that even a thing? I wanted to make a scene so bad, I even considered calling the 911 Non-emergency number, but I knew realistically that would not be the move. I think the staff believe the atmosphere was so good, they can charge anything. I bet they are going to charge a "fee fee" next. Oxygen fee next year. The Sports Bar & Grille should change their name to " Sports Facilities & Fee Grille" We charge you for everything!
