The previous reviewer who said this is a sports bar for hipsters was totally right, but there's so much more to the Dock Ellis than that. This place is wild!
We went there for my boyfriend's bday party and the Dock Ellis was totally accommodating to our large group. They don't take reservations, so we showed up at 6 to snag the table that had a great view of the screens and was closest to all the games: foosball, shuffleboard, and a pool table. Downstairs there's a mini rec room featuring an air hockey table, ping pong and darts. It was the perfect place to throw a party!
This place scores points for its awesome food (everyone who ate anything was super impressed. Personally I tried a couple wonton nachos and they were divine!) and fantastic service. We started with a lovely blonde server who was super kind to replace a beer for free when the birthday boy accidentally knocked it over, but later in the night we were taken care of by a guy named Colin. He was great! Drinks arrived quickly and he was able to provide everyone with separate bills, which was especially helpful as we had a rotating crop of people come throughout the night.
I totally plan to go back here. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about the Dock Ellis and I highly recommend it to everyone. Even my friends who don't particular care for "the sports" highly enjoyed themselves.
