My husband and I frequent sports bars since we are both sports nuts and sometimes watching a game at home by ourselves is a little dull. Saturday afternoon we were starting to go a bit stir crazy at home, so we decided to check out Upper Deck Sports Grill to watch the Jag/Pats playoff game.
The only reason I am not giving this place one star is that there were tons of TVs with a variety of sporting events playing and I liked the two level idea. We sat on the second level at this mini bar that lines the balcony so we would have a great view of the two huge projection screens that were showing the football game. Other than that, I have nothing positive to say about Upper Deck. The service was horrific...my husband actually had to go to the bar on the second level to get our drinks and order our food because while there were waitresses walking around, they never came over to us. The food was incredibly mediocre...I ordered the "kickin chicken wrap"...I am still trying to figure out what was kicking about it. My husband got the chicken burrito and he didn't care for it. The menu is really lackluster and not much about it envokes the sports bar idea. The beer prices were a tad high for the most part, but our 64 oz. Bud Lite pitchers were $8.50 which we didn't think was too bad.
One of the most odd things about Upper Deck is the hodge podge assortment of universities or teams that claim the bar as their "viewing" place for games...Georgia Tech, Kansas, Virginia Tech, Michigan State, and the Philadelphia Eagles all had banners hanging up...weird. What the common bond between them all is, I have no clue. Needless to say, I will not be making a trip back to Upper Deck anytime in the future.
