Top Sports Bars for Watching March Mayhem
Tap at MGM Grand
A 220-seat restaurant and sports bar presenting a wide collection of draught and bottled beers accompanied by 60 flat-screen HD televisions. The food is also finger-licking good at Tap, from sloppy joes, cheese steak sliders to sourdough pretzels. Plus, there’s even an extra incentive to go: you’ll be walled by sports mementos from some of the major sporting events ever held in Las Vegas.
Lagasse’s Stadium in The Palazzo
Enjoy being in expert hands here, with celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse – who’s a passionate sports fan himself, will be whipping up something delish for you. An amalgamation of a sports book, restaurant and lounge, Lagasse’s Stadium has over 100 HD screens and a menu of tailgating favorites with a New Orleans spin – like the shrimp po’ boy or the pork nachos. Feeling fancy? The why not spoil yourself and reserve one of the sky or luxury boxes, which feature comfy seating that will rival the feeling of being on your sofa at home…what’s more, when halftime hits, you can enjoy a game of billiards or step out onto the quad and savour the view of the Las Vegas Strip.
The Ainsworth at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino
Think of an upscale lounge that meets a sports bar. Its trendy design comprises of leather seating and rustic chandeliers. Pine wood walls are speckled by traditionally-framed mirrors supplemented with flat-screen TVs. Modest as the menu is, limited to less than 15 items it includes the essentials: sliders, Buffalo wings and roasted teriyaki chicken. And believe us – you won’t be disappointed in any of them.
Blondies Sports Bar & Grill in the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino
If you’re seeking a relaxed sports joint will a chill-out vibe, this is not the place. This place it best known for its excessive atmosphere where patrons are served by sexy bar staff in cheerleader uniforms. With more than 40 flat-screen TVs, ranging in size from 12 to 32 feet and showing the day’s major NCAA, NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB and NASCAR events. You can even enjoy on-demand beer pong tables – it’s really no wonder why Blondies tends to be a hot retreat with college kids (and kids-at-heart, mind you!).
Le Burger Brasserie Sports Grille at Paris Las Vegas
Sure, when you think of American Sports your first thought of a prime location, is not that of a French-themed restaurant …mais oui, it certainly is in our books! Apart from showcasing THE hamburger – an American icon – on its menu Le Burger Brasserie, also fosters a sports bar milieu with 13 flat-screen monitors surrounding the dining room and a huge 15-foot-by-15-foot television upon entrance. With over 15 beers on tap as well as four kinds of french fries for munching, the game-time atmosphere is always très fun.
Yard House at The Linq
Situated next to the attention-grabbing High Roller observation wheel, which is stunning both by day and more so when lit at night, this 50th site of the popular Southern California-based franchise. Encircling two stories and more than 18,000 square feet, this is legitimately the principal Yard House in existence.
Stop and take a good look at the glass-walled keg room, which contains thousands of gallons of beer before you sit down in the bar. Then there’s the gigantic dining room or on the patio to watch sports. If you’re someone who likes making choices, you’ll have more than you can imagine at Yard House. Take your pick from a selection of 160 taps of imported, craft and specialty ales and lagers and 130 menu items extending from sliders and lettuce wraps to flatbreads and street tacos. Yummy!
