I had a great time. The bartender was absolutely amazing. He was very welcoming and happy to fry up some food for me, even though it was pretty late on a Friday night. The place seemed to have a tight-knit community vibe, which was really fun to see and interact with. I’ll definitely try to come here more often when I’m in the area!

Sweet Home Bar and Grill is very nice place with good food and relaxed atmosphere. I went with my husband and we played pool and had really good time. The best thing is the bartender Kaleb. He is amazing, very friendly and funny, and always paying attention. He makes great drinks and makes everyone feel welcome. Because of him the place feels special. I recommend it.

Friday night karaoke is where it’s at. I guess there’s karaoke on Saturday. I’ve never gone but I was apprehensive at first and then I felt welcome with open arms. Definitely a great bar.

Great little gay friendly dive bar!
Came here with a couple of friends and was served by Kaleb, who was friendly, kind, and attentive even with a packed bar.
Tried the burger and mozzarella sticks — both were great!
Kaleb also made me a mixed shot that tasted just like green apple, which was a fun surprise.
So glad I stumbled on this place, especially after Scandals closed downtown.

Once your eyes adjust to the dark interior, you’ll find it’s a fun lil neighborhood dive with a nice selection of drinks, good food, lotto machines, a pool table, and friendly staff. The beer cheese bacon burger is a must have. Easily the best burger I’ve had in a long time!

I love stopping by sweet home after a long day of work for a drink and some quick food. Kaleb is an awesome bartender! He makes great drinks and is super friendly, but knows how to manage the place well.

The low-slung and unassuming Sweet Home Bar & Grill is a neighborhood gem! As a professional chef and food writer, I endeavored to spend (the Mercury’s annual) Nacho Week chowing down on as many crunchy, crispy variations on the Nacho theme as I could. I was genuinely disappointed by the 3 out of 5 I tried; lackluster efforts would be an understatement. However, when I went to Sweet Home Bar & Grill, my faith in the tradition of Nacho Week was restored tenfold. First of all, this place is CLEAN – it’s naturally dive bar dim inside, but your feet don’t stick to the floor as you sidle up to the bar to meet – clearly, the fastest moving, most friendly bartender you’ll ever meet, Crystal. Once I placed my order I took ownership of a table facing the door, yet strategically located for full reconnaissance once my eyes adjusted. The pool table, dining tables, barstools, video machines (and un-ripped-up chairs) were all in un-sticky, un-torn and clean! The music was 80’s and 90’s rock triggered my awkward college years, like a psychic, Crystal caught me staring off into the ‘what if’ abyss and brought me another Deschutes Pale Ale.
My Nacho Quest was delivered to me in a large plastic tray under checkered paper: Bulgogi Beef Nachos. Tender, umami-rich rib-eye strips were layered on sturdy, freshly deep-fried tortilla chips and served with queso, garlic sour cream and (thankfully) the kimchi on the side. Trust me when I say, after disappointing nachos elsewhere, these were superb! Bulgogi Beef Nachos showed up like a ‘just the facts, ma’am’ and ended with a tip of the hat to my palate. High praise to Chef Steve Federlin for restoring my faith in Nacho Week. FUN FACT: I’ve been back a few times and I can personally recommend the Double Smashed Burger (phat and juicy) and the Steak & Fries (cooked to expectation with crispy, fluffy beer-battered fries). Now, if I could just get them to stop playing Christopher Cross…

I love the happy hour burger, now there are new owners with a new menu. No more happy hour right now, but there is a new burger in town. And promised it was tastier, as a skeptical person who love the grease burger from last week. I tried it, they make own patties and home made French fries. Well, I AM IN LOVE, this new burger with grill cheese that is gooey and chewy melted on burger, with the pickles and fries. Yum, YUM AND I AM IN LOVE! A MUST TRY.

I haven’t seen any changes/ now they have a 10 ball tournament on Thur. 7pm $7 Entry with a 10 ball break pot.

It’s a divey sports bar and gambling establishment. Not really my vibe so not trying to be too punitive. Food feels like they want to swing higher than their food budget and clientele allows.
