| - Why have I been frequenting
Real Sports every other month for the last three years? Mostly because I work in the same building, but also because they have some really good pub food.
Nachos are a must try - I would say they are the best I've had anywhere. Your options for meat are pulled pork, chili or BBQ chicken, making them way more tasty then most restaurants that throw a bunch of plain dry chicken breast. The Buffalo chicken tenders are also better than any standard pub. They are freshly made, big and you can coat them in any of the wing sauces on the menu (everyone loves "Go For the Gold," but I find it too sweet). Burgers (including the lettuce burger), wings, hot dogs, and fish and chips are all good. Their chicken lettuce wraps were also surprisingly good.
The worst thing I've had is the portebello sandwich because the mushroom was so small and there was not enough cheese or sauce to add flavour. In general they excel at pub style food.
The service is random, and depends entirely on the time and what type of group you are. The servers are mostly girls in their 20s, so if you have a table of young people out for drinks or a table of guys you will probably have better service than if you are a couple girls on their lunch break (in my experience). I've also been given really crappy tables when I've had a reservation. Most recently we had a reservation for a table of fifteen and they put us in front of the bar at a skinny bar table with two people sitting at each end. At night it will be extremely loud, packed, and you may experience sensory overload from the jumbo screens - it is a sports bar on steroids.
It can also be a bit pricey, but the portions are good and the food is always freshly made and good quality.
I would suggest Real Sports as a great place to go with a group of friends for excellent pub food and an extreme sports bar experience.
