"Because this sports bar and BBQ spot takes reservations, it's hard to walk into on game day with a big group. But we’ve had success going solo or with a friend or two. However, the line-up time for this multi-screen hot spot starts around four hours before kickoff." - candis mclean
"Tradesman’s is a massive place that's both a BBQ spot and sports bar, but really feels like more of a restaurant. It can seat over 200 people between its two floors and has one of those enormous multi-screen TVs behind the main bar that makes you feel like you’re being brainwashed a la A Clockwork Orange. But especially during March Madness and playoff season, it’s one of the best places to multitask while sharing a plate of brisket, a bunch of imperial stouts, and smoked chicken with your 10 closest friends." - candis mclean
"This Midtown Village barbecue, beer, and whiskey joint doubles as a sports bar with a big wall of TVs behind the main bar and more TVs upstairs on the mezzanine. Tradesman’s also has oversized windows that open onto Chestnut and Juniper streets, with stools attached to the building’s exterior walls — you can see the TVs from the sidewalk seats." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff
