Players Sports Bar & Grill
Inside Players Sports Bar & Grill
Players Sports Bar & Grill sits just off FL-7 in Fort Lauderdale, carving out its space as a laid-back neighborhood hub where sports fans and locals come together to relax, eat, and catch the game. This bar & grill’s atmosphere is a blend of a lively sports bar and a comfortable community gathering spot—expect a crowd that’s diverse in age and background, sharing the evening over pool tables, karaoke on Wednesdays, or one of the many TV screens broadcasting everything from football to basketball.
The menu leans on classic bar food favorites sprinkled with some local flair. Their world-famous wings are a consistent draw, often paired alongside sandwiches like the Mahi Mahi or Tuna Melt, salads with a buffalo kick, and a handful of wraps that keep things casual and satisfying. Portions are sizeable, and there are solid lunch specials that make it a popular stop for a midday meal, especially if you’re looking for something affordable but filling.
Players is at its best during social evenings when groups come to unwind. The staff tends to be friendly and approachable, bolstering the welcoming vibe, though service can fluctuate with busier nights—so patience pays off. The atmosphere sometimes carries a bit of smoke, so it’s a place where you might want to come with that expectation if you’re sensitive to it.
Parking can be a challenge during peak times, a sign of just how much this spot draws in crowds who enjoy not only good food and drinks but also the community feel. Happy hour offers well-mixed drinks—including the popular Liquid Marijuana cocktail—and the overall drink menu complements the food without overcomplicating it.
Whether you’re stopping by for a casual lunch, catching up with friends late at night, or looking for a spot to watch your favorite team with over 20 TVs lighting the room, Players Sports Bar & Grill fits the bill as a dependable local hangout where the focus is on easygoing fun rather than polish. It’s the kind of place where conversation flows as freely as the drinks, and regulars feel at home.
