Social Profile:

In 2014 Downers Sand Club Sports Bar & Grill was launched to insure Sand Volleyball would be here for many years to come. As a volleyball player myself I hated to see this place shut down. So with the help of my wife Janice, our families and many members of the volleyball community, we came in and over the past years have taken this place to a new level of fun for ALL ages. Come in for refreshing drinks, fresh homemade food like our #1 menu item chicken tenders, great wings, savory burgers and much more. Stay for indoor sand volleyball, bags, darts, pool, foosball, shuffleboard & golden tee. We also have a Large Patio to hang out, eat, drink and smoke. There is also a pool table located outside. Inside we have a jukebox and ATM.

Lively American sports bar & grill with indoor beach volleyball, darts, pool, karaoke & dancing.

This place is basically a masterclass in how to chase away customers and employees at the same time. The owner micromanages so hard even the pool tables are stressed—lean on one and you’ll get yelled at like it owes him money. Drinks are $10, tips are optional… unless he decides they’re not. Half the bar is always closed, the food downgraded itself, and the staff keeps disappearing faster than his accountability. Disagree with him? Lifetime ban. Leave a bad review? He’ll swear you were at a different bar in a different universe. Overall vibe: overpriced drinks, underpaid staff, and an owner allergic to responsibility.

The lady serving in the poker room was very good. The bar is dark and dingy. I was playing in a poker tournament and couldn’t breath from all the mildew or moldy smell. No lights turned on in the front. Players that brought in a bottle of water was quickly approached by the owner and had to throw it away or take it to your car. No one was there except the poker players and one team of volley ball players.
You would think the owner would be welcoming instead of worrying that someone has a bottle of water. The Chicago Charity Group, running the poker tournament, had to hang lights in the room for the tournament because the lighting was so bad. I will not play there again.

Super fun place to play volleyball inside. Courts are a great size and ceilings are high. A great place to gather with friends, have a few drinks, and get all sandy.

I only go for swing dancing on Wednesday but it’s one of the best places to do it. And they recently upgraded the floor and lights so it’s even better.

Last night we went to Downers Sand Club Sports Bar & Grill to attend West Coast Swing dance class (they’re SO fun- highly recommend!!). Also, my friend had a birthday party here before & we loved the sand volleyball courts. The place is great, so this is unfortunate.

Walking in, the bouncer checked my purse for outside food/drink & saw I had 1 juicebox & told me I couldn’t bring it in. That’s normal. I said “I’m type 1 diabetic, I need it.” She walked away & the owner took over. “You need to leave that up here.” I repeated myself & he continued shaking his head. “I have plenty of drinks for you to buy up here.” I replied, “I have the same initial treatment for a low blood sugar every time. I drink a juicebox. It has the # of carbs I need with no added sugar. The nutrition facts tell me exactly that, so I’m certain of how I’m treating my low.” He repeated himself, again, as other people are walking past us & I’m embarrassed & late for class. I said “if my sugar goes low all the way in that back room, you’re making me walk all the way up front to buy a drink from you?” You bet, that juicebox stayed right there. We didn’t want to miss more of our class.

A grown adult making the choice (& re-affirming it) to demand that if/when my blood sugar drops, I need to leave the class I paid for, walk hundreds of feet (when I’m weak & dizzy) & purchase a drink instead of sitting down where I’m at & having the correct amount of carbs from a juicebox I brought is….truly a unique experience!

Employees are rude, it’s absurd you can’t bring your own water in and they charge for water, this is America we serve free water

We had an event here on the 20th of April. Some of the food is what you would expect, however, some of the food was fantastic. The Fries, the nachos, and tacos were really good! All the employees were super nice and helpful. There is indoor sand volleyball, so you have to expect that there will be traces of sand everywhere. Other then that, things seemed pretty clean.

Everyone I talked to at our event (which was over 100 people) all seemed to enjoy themselves and had a good time!

Food and drinks are good, but cannot recommend visiting the bar on one of their event nights unless you are there to participate. I sat at an unreserved table after ordering food and a drink, but when the food came I was asked to move from the active area and into the unlit, closed second bar/dining area in the front, under a safety light as I wasn’t there for volleyball or dancing. While I had originally came with the plan to stay, drink, and eat for an hour or two while friends danced, I ended up finishing my food and going to another bar to wait for my friends where I could sit at the bar.

Edit: I am unable to post a reply to the response but the table we sat at was as clean and ready as any table I’ve seen. Which is wonderful to have patrons that leave tables like that. However, as for a deal with the dance host, I did ask so I could just sit there since my friends would be dancing and I would not be, but was told I would have to pay the full fee.

I also would have loved to sit at the bar but we were specifically asked to move from the area to that table and weren’t given another option.
