Been to Rookies many times before, been a little while though, but ultimately I was very pleased this last time there. Started off with a tasty Irish Coffee, and then from there the food was great as well, shared some nachos and their pulled porked pizza (fantastic taste combination), and the service was timely and friendly!

  • Art S

Awesome location and atmosphere. Must admit it's nothing like the downtown San Jose location. nothing against downtown San Jose but that type of sports lounge is not my cup of tea personally. Met up here with a couple of coworker buddies and had a great time. Thank you for the awesome service, great grub and drinks

  • Carl

Have been coming here multiple times to watch football. The place is awesome, displaying every game. The staff are great and friendly. The food is really good. I've had the breakfast burrito which was AMAZING. Then also had various apps and chicken and waffles. All were delicious. I highly recommend this place.

  • Rayna Ritchie

That was a really solid bar. Been there a couple of times before, but tonight was special. Maybe it's the plague keeping me repressed, but it was a really refreshing experience. Great food, super cool wait-staff. Happy to go back ASAP. Did I mention they have a really special licious sour?

  • Natalie Turrey

We had our granddaughter with us, and they wouldn't provide us with a child seat and they wouldn't allow us extra chairs to join our party of four. Then when my daughter came to pick up our granddaughter, the server wouldn't allow them her in. More

It's a sports bar. What can I say? Well, there are a lot of sports minded people here. All with their own opinions. I tried to enjoy a Guinness beer and nachos. I hoped to be able to watch recaps without all the redirect and commentary. No

Nicole was our bartender and we had Jessie and Julie as our servers. The service DEFINITELY made our experience special. Nicole made awesome drink recommendations and poured some really amazing custom cocktails. Jessie and Julie were super

Went to Rookies on a day when both Sharks and Quakes were playing. The place was packed, nowhere to sit other than outside on the benches. The staff were so sweet and accommodating. They were not obligated to serve us outside but they did

  • Jennifer Vazquez

I have been coming here since becoming a local several years ago. The service has always been, hands down, the best I have ever experienced at a sports bar. I consider myself to be a pretty laid back patron, but even so they have always

  • Carl Foisy

We've enjoyed Rookies since they opened. We've been many times over the years, and this is my first review for them. Consistency is key, and my family continues to go because the hella nice people and crazy tasty food is consistently on

  • orland castro

The food is good, better than your normal dive bar and the bartenders and servers are usually very attentive, friendly, and have a good customer service skills. I'm sure you'll have a good time. It's a great place to watch local sports

  • Divinity Doula

Went for a drink at 10p last night with a friend and while the drinks were perfect and the bartender was super sweet, they decided they were going to close at 11p instead of the listed 12a and turned the lights down on us and started

  • Barbara McManus, RVT

I visited for the first time. The food was greasy and perfect and the staff was super friendly. Because of the pandemic, we sat outside and when closing time came the bartender let us stay. He was joking with us, offered to take our

Cool selection of food, not the normal sports bar grub. Awesome beer selection. Only problem is it's too loud to bring the family unless it's particularly when there are no games going on or it's lunch on the weekend.

  • DArcy Demianoff-Thompson

Nice little place with a great selection of beers. We ordered jalapeno poppers - not good at all. They barely had any cheese and were topped with some kind of unidentifiable ingredients. The service was fantastic!

  • Matthew Bajjalieh

Great place good people working there the managers are awesome. Nicole Stephanie and julie are rookies originals. One of the best places to go to go watch a game or even just simply go there for lunch.

  • Jari Vasarainen

Very nice bar and atmosphere, decent prices and great service. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the French fries were swimming in oil. I will be back. The Pic was taken Dec 26th at 1 pm.

  • Peter Ligeti

I went in for lunch and I was very pleased with everything. The menu is extensive and very reasonably priced. My pizza was well done, none of the soggy stuff. It was fresh and crispy. The

Nachos is very full filling (it was a little bit cold). Great selection of beers. Attentive staff. Nice atmosphere. Lots of screens.

  • Paul “Pauliee D!” Joseph

Sexy bartenders. Good food. Great place to watch a sports event. 4’11 Latina waitress was so friendly. And the cocktails are strong.
