"If you’re ever in town for a concert at the Lakewood Amphitheater and looking for a place to eat, this is it"
"Nothing to like"
"Nice lil hole in the wall cash only!! so come prepared (or use the ATM they have)"
"There's something about this place that feels like home"
A huge low key honey hole, went for the first time an the vibe/atmosphere is unmatched very friendly and homey vibe. The bartender is very nice and funny and friendly down to the staff the food IS HOT AND FRESH …. They are not stingy on the shots and beers are ICE COLD. this will be my new beer thirty chill spot
If you’re ever in town for a concert at the Lakewood Amphitheater and looking for a place to eat, this is it. The people were so nice and the food was amazing. They called you by first name and made you feel welcome. Even the locals would come by your table and speak to you. By far best place in the area.
Nothing to like. The bartender was nasty and everyone sitting at the bar wore a confederate flag bandana....it was obvious we were not welcome. If I ever come back it will be with a crew of black folk. And it's a hole in the wall but that I could tolerate. That racist nonsense is unacceptable in 2015
Nice lil hole in the wall cash only!! so come prepared (or use the ATM they have). Good wings, cheap drinks, 2 pool tables, what more could you ask for? It’s always a good laid back time with a mix of folks in there. They close early for a bar, so be sure to check the times before you leave home
There's something about this place that feels like home. Angie and Todd were friendly and welcoming. The other customers were chatty and entertaining. Closest place to "Cheers" in real life. Food was also amazing! Pool tables for those of you who play. I highly recommend ☺ …
Super weird vibes! I guess they don't get African American customers often. The bartender was also the waitress & she sucked. We ordered margaritas & those things tasted like salty lime juice. Our pizza took FOREVER to come out, but it was good tho. Won't be going back tho.
Ordered wings took like 35 min to come out maybe longer. When they came out they were cold and salty. I ordered fries she they didn’t come out and she charged me for tater tot’s. Then when the bill came the bartender had the tip set for 30%
Ideal Sports bar is the best hometown bar in all of Georgia. Everyday you can count on the same buddies being there you may be setting in a different seat but you can bet your paycheck you'll see and meet the same folks with no Yea Butts...
Cigarette smoke rolls out as you open the door to a dimly lit bar. The bartender is welcoming and you come across the most white people in Lakewood since a 311 concert. When you asks what's on tap she presents to you possibly the saddest 4
NOT YOUR "IDEAL" Sports bar at all... You walk into a silent bar filled with smoke. Biggest TV in the bar is of the security cameras around the outside of the bar. Beer was poured into a miniature cup the size a small toddler would drink
Place was completely empty. Only had local games on I caught a Uber all the way there just because of the name to find out my game wasn’t even on. How do you call yourself a sports bar with only one game on.. so I had to catch a Uber to
i was asked to leave because i was using the internet. I was buying beer and tipping the bartender. But because I wasnt old and ugly and sitting at the bar I was asked to leave. Ill be sure to let the new locals know we are not welcome
Good folks! I needed a place, near the airport, to hang out in until my family's flight arrived and was immediately welcomed with open arms. I believe the waitress' name was Michelle... maybe, but she is friendly and funny AF! She
Visited ideal Sportsbar on yesterday. Was a homegirls birthday and it was the closest place to where we were. The food was good. Just regular sports bar food. The bathrooms were clean. The service was great! Kayla our Server and
Awesome diamond in the rough. Friendly staff, decent typical bar food, good drinks, full pours. 2 pool tables and a dart board for recreation too if you are up for it. Great stop before a concert or anytime you are in the area.
Its a great place to socialize and relax and lrt some steam off. Bartenders are always smiling and great service. Cook is awesome can cook anything just the way you want it. Plenty parking with wheel chair access if needed.
Great dbl cheeseburger and 2 beers with a friend. Real nice, friendly and preety bartender there, Angie. If only she didnt get hit on all the time, i am sure. I would have tried to talk to her more and left my number...
Wednesdays is the only day I go because my favorite bartender is behind the bar that night. Food never fails. Cudos to the chef and bartender on Wednesdays. Prices are good...I just like to drink my tab up...lol More
A staple hole in the wall off of Lakewood. This place has been here for 40 years and isn’t going anywhere soon. The chicken philly is the best in town. Also, they’ve started doing karaoke on Friday nights
Great little neighborhood bar close to Lakewood Amphitheater! Any time you are coming up for a concert, come early and stop by. Hopefully, Angie will be behind the bar because she is fantastic!
Ask for Sylvia, She is the sweetest young lady in there! She listens, great smile and makes the bessssssttttt t freakin drinks your tonsils will taste on an easy night! Thanks, Chic!
This is a great neighborhood business always friendly always at your service five stars hand down this is your ideal sports bar and when you check them out tell them Naomi sent you
I visited this bar tonight for the 3rd time. For a Wednesday night it was great. I really enjoyed the hospitality and everyone was so hospitable. This is a nice place to visit.
Great Service with great staff. Very Clean and good food. My favorite part is its only 2,000' from my house. Ideal Sportsbar is a great place for local fun and good food.
Very upbeat and friendly bar and grill. Great convenient location next to Lakewood amphitheater. Be sure to ask for Todd and you’re sure to have a nice time while there
Great place. Service is great. Food is excellent. Friends are even greater. Meet there once a month for High School get togethers. Host and Hostess are good people.
The service was so good that I came back with a buddy to show him and we are now going to be regulars because of Gretchen the bar tender!! She is awesome!! More
Do you like dive bars with bar food done right, cold drinks and affordable prices? If so, then this is your spot. Quickly becoming my neighborhood go to. More
Mandy the bartender is the best around. She makes the best drinks, keeps you laughing. She makes sure you have an all around great time. Very attentive!
It’s nice to know there’s still normal honest people who listen to Rock and Roll, grew up in the sixties and seventies. God, Patriotism and. Freedom.
You no the neighborhood bars you see on tv. This is that place Angie is the best. Normal bar food that is cooked to perfection. Great Place!!!!
Great place to shoot pool. I had a great time watching an ol' school pro I had an opportunity to run into. Refreshing laid back change of pace.
Tldr; dive bar food, eclectic mic of people and fantastic bar staff. Great dive bar, super friendly people. The bar staff are truly the best:
Good dive bar. Friendly staff. Solid bar food. Now take cards which is a big bonus for direct deposit folks like me that rarely have cash.
Love this bar... Great bartenders and bingo on Mondays! They threw me a surprise party for my birthday and it was amazing- so thoughtful.
The name says it all. I’ve been stuck at more dives than you’ve been drunk and this is my favorite. God damn this is a good bar.
Good place with good people. A little off the beaten path but that’s where you find some of the best spots. This is one of them.
I like it here. I play bingo here. The drinks tasted weird but the food was delicious …
