Coaches Sports Grill

Went to play NTN there and Marie was very helpful and friendly. I went there on a Monday night and the place was jam packed! They have pinball! Good place overall. I had a cheeseburger and fries that were average, nothing special, but the guy next to me had a beautiful rack of ribs that looked fabulous! Place is pretty pricey on drinks.

I am a local and went to this place on a this Saturday night (9.19.09). My buddy, a Texas football fan who recently just returned from an Army 7 month tour in Afganihstan and a group of friends went there to watch the Texas vs. Texas Tech game the same night as the UFC fights. I am not a big UFC fan so we watched the game out back on the porch the entire evening having dinner and having a few drinks. I personally went inside twice to order a mix drink (cocktail) and then went direclty back out to the patio. The third time I went to order a drink at the inside bar as was asked by one of the UFC bouncers to the front of the bar. I was then told that I had been watching the UFC fights all night (which was a total lie) and was ordered to pay a $5 cover to watch the fights or be bounced out of the bar. I spent over $50 on dinner and drinks and was at the extablishment for more than 4 hrs. watching the Texas vs. Texas Tech. game. I would highly not reccomend this establishment for a local or visitor as the front door personel are very rude and are only out for the money (cover charge). The TV's need updating and there is not enough seating on a night were there are multiple events on. I would highly recommend Saggio's or Sidelines Sports Bar which is the same area of town and has better TV's to see an event. Personally I will not return to this establishment...even on a slow night!
