So me and Boston Bob checked out glory days, and overall, solid experience. Day 1, Delaney took care of us, two grown men with about four shared brain cells, and she never missed a beat. Drinks stayed full, food came fast, and she handled our nonsense like an FBI hostage negotiator who already knew we were the problem. ......so we came back the next day. This time we hit the bar, where Reilly and Steph ran the show. They kept the place moving like a Formula 1 pit crew while making everyone feel like regulars. They roast you just enough, keep the drinks flowing, and somehow juggle six conversations without breaking stride. At one point I'm pretty sure they solved world hunger, fixed the economy, and brought me another beer before I noticed mine was empty. Glory Days, whatever you're paying Delaney, Reilly, and Steph, it's not enough. They absolutely run that place. Boston Bob and I came in two days in a row because the service was that good. Now I should consider paying rent. read more

Ordered via UberEats - The chicken tender platter was decent, but not amazing or exceptional. The breading was a tad soft and soggy. The chicken seemed to be breaded, fried, then tossed in a spices mixture which had large pieces of grainy spices in it - most notably salt, with a sweet and savory blend of spices. No honey mustard was provided, as is customary with chicken tenders - instead it was a creamy almost Thousand Island-like sauce. I definitely prefer Chili's chicken crispers over this. The mac & cheese was bottom of the barrel - Bland, lacking flavor, slightly bitter and slightly gritty. Just not what you'd expect from a quality chain like Glory Days ... read more

Oh my goodness, how much a place can change. The servers are incredibly attentive even the new ones so the training by the management must be awesome. Beer is cold. Food is hot specials are truly special. overall vibe is a nice neighborhood grill. They are returning the patio to Life, which is such a great way to unwind after work cold beer outside fresh air . Of course it's always better with a fantastic nachos. read more

Just bought dinner to go and came home. The plaster wrap was still on the rack of ribs. It was all cooked together. I don't think this is a smart way to keep in the juices! The other food was fine. So we give two stars for this visit. read more

Decent bar food in a nice environment. Service: 5/5 Our waiter was excellent. Environment: 4/5 Nice clean open space where we could actually hear ourselves talking. Can Nachos: 3/5 Huuuuuge portion. Not bad. I've had better though. Chicken Tenders: 2/5 Dry. Too dry. Had to ask for some sauces to get them down my throat. Seemed overcooked or like they were frozen for too long. Buffalo Chicken Sandwich: 4/5 Hit the spot. Better than BJ's. Food was hot and tasty. Recommend the sweet potato fries. read more

way way way overpriced....4 dollars for a fountain drink? 15 dollars for a mediocre chicken sandwich. This is not a premium restaurant 25 dollars for lunch with a tip. Last time i go there to eat read more

We had never been here before and stopped while passing through. The food was fantastic and they had a wide selection of bar drinks that were also fantastic. Our server Kimberlee was so sweet and attentive. Fabulous service. The restaurant itself was also great. We sat outside on the patio area which was very nice. Shade and nice lights and very clean! read more

My buddies and I decided to come here after golf. We've been coming to glory days since we could walk basically with our families. Yesterday we ordered a full order of cheese fries for 11.99, and this was the portion size. Times can't be this tough, small portion size and an overall underwhelming presentation. A few of my buddies ordered boneless wings for $12.99, I compared the portion size of those to equivalent to about 7-8 Dino Nuggets from Costco. I got 10 traditional wings and they were pretty good so I would recommend going for those. Let's be better Glory and bring back the good days #DK read more

Yikes... what happened to my favorite place to eat when I visit home? Used to make all my friends get together to get wings and max and cheese fries here every year when I visited. Used to work at this location years back. Took myself to lunch today and ordered 12 wings, cheese fries. Mac n cheese and a piece of a cornbread and the only thing that came out even somewhat appetizing was the cornbread. The wings didn't even look correct. Rubbery, no crisp, none of the sauce on the wings, just in a puddle under them. The mac was cold and soupy, the extra shredded that is added by the server on top as garnish didn't even melt because it wasn't warm enough. The cheese fries probably would have been fine but I was just grossed out after trying one bite of the wing so I left. The service was fine no one was rude, but I just came to eat. Waste of 42 bucks, and a bummer first meal back in VA. read more

Glory Days in Gainesville, VA IS AMAZING! Food is consistently on~point & service is impeccable. Duty to a high influx of curbside orders at this specific location, I had the pleasure of meeting Wayne, the Manager On Duty, who, hands down, took incredible care overseeing/ensuring 100% accuracy w/my pick~up order. Mr. Wayne was incredibly professional, gregarious, a gentleman & everything a corporation could want & ask for in an employee. To the higher ups of Glory Days, Mr. Wayne is a KEEPER, trust me!!! Mr. Wayne, a BIG THANKS from Mia. read more

This is incredibly good food. I had the Glory Burger and it was hands down the best burger I have tasted in years. I highly recommend eating here read more

I was here the first of February 2020, the restaurant across the parking lot was closed. I had just flown in from Utah and was hungry & dying for a drink. This place totally surprised me, it's the best sports bar I've ever been in and I travel 12 month of the year all over the US. The beer was local and great, the bar tender was lovely and on point and I honestly can't say enough about the spaghetti. This was by far the best spaghetti I've had in a restaurant in years and years. It was so good I said I had to get back over there before I leave town. Thanks for a excellent meal, wonderful service in a clean and fun environment. Highly recommend. read more

Food was very good but the serving sizes were absolutely positively genuinely actually gigantically MASSIVE. I ordered tendies and mac n cheese and got a giant plate of 5 huge tenders, a man sized portion of fries and my bowl of yummy mac n cheese. The waitress was very nice and funny and the service was great, but we had many to-go boxes because the food was portioned for giants. Very tasty, though! read more

We had reservations at 3. Knowing we had 10. Seating was great. Smashed some tops together. Spencer was the man! Separate checks (3) not bad really, clearly defined before ordering; Old Bay wings! blue cheese burger. Med/rare. Perfect. Crispy onion straws a MUST! Fries good as well. Right, reminded. Reg onion rings good too! Philly cheese steak killed it! Barbeque bowl. Super! Nice beer selection. Michelob. Haven't had one since college. Good times memories. Seriously, Spencer was anticipating order refills. You had 2 swallows left and the "LOOK" ? Sodas, tea n coffee just refilled. Water too. 10 patrons. 1 Spencer. DUDE! You rock! read more

They changed the menu and it looks nice but the food also changed and it's awful ,bad taste worse nachos ever ... the hamburgers came out cold , the fries were also cold The desert was disgusting Sad our food was cold the place was not even full , the service was nice but super slow The manager is nice as well But it is sad sad because Glory Days has been always nice read more

The wings are great but noticed less sauce lately. I received my order with no ranch or celery and talked to the manager. He fixed my order right away and went above and beyond to make sure everything was right. Great job by the manager. read more

The ribs and shrimp combo is consistently EXCELLENT. I don't know why they bother to give out steak knives. The ribs are so tender the meat slides off the bone. We visit from Hawai'i a couple times a year and Glory Days is always a must. read more

I was hungering for a good burger this evening - I thought that Glory Days Grill might be a good place for a burger. I've never been to a Glory Days before this evening. I ordered a burger with Blue Cheese and caramelized onions, medium-well, with fries, and a pint of Blue Moon. Quite frankly, the best thing about dinner was the beer. The burger was not that great - not a lot of flavor. And the fries were just okay. I will give them another shot down the road and try something else next time - but first time - I am not impressed. Oh, and this is a fairly new restaurant. So why is the restaurant festooned with old analog style/CRT TV's? There were a ton of 'em! A new restaurant such as this should be taking the initiative and going straight to High Def flat panel TVs! read more

I went here recently with a friend for dinner. We were greeted and sat right away. Our waiter was prompt with getting our drink orders as well and was pleasant. Overall the food was good. One issue we had was that we ordered cheese fries as an appetizer and it ended up coming out with the meal instead. A mild inconvenience but at least we got them. I also ordered an old fashioned that I wasn't really sure what it was but it was palatable so I went ahead and drank it, no reason to waste a drink just because it's the wrong thing. Overall I'd probably come back if I was in the area and my friend wanted to. read more

A group of 22+ ladies showed up without a reservation or a call ahead. The staff accommodated the group with seating in short order. Drink & food orders were efficiently taken with deliberate courtesy. The food was very good and our group had a terrific time. My Cobb Salad was excellent, with large chunks, not shredded or shaved pieces chicken. read more

First time trying this place and we were pleasantly surprised. Clean place, friendly staff and good food. We ordered zucchini fries $7.99, grilled shrimp tacos (Tuesdays $6.99) and Glory Days burger $11.99. Be careful though if you substitute because we were charged $2.69 extra for onion rings instead of fries. read more

Must say that this Glory Days location is by far the best Glory Days I've been too. Everyone working there was incredibly nice I spoke with the managers Kate and Luis just to let them know how absolutely FANTASTIC my waitress Suzie was. I will definitely be returning and telling friends and family about the excellent hospitality and delicious food that's was all apart of my experience at this Glory Days Establishment. read more

I have eaten at many Glory Days locations and my experience at the Gainesville location left me with a very bad taste in my mouth. We arrived at lunch on a Sunday and were met with a very nice hostess. She sat us immediately and we waited 15 minutes until I walked back to the host stand to ask if someone could take our order. She then walked to 2 servers and both said they did not want our table. Finally, about 5 minutes after that another server greeted us. We ordered the nachos as an appetizer. These were awful, and thats a compliment. Some sort of imitation runny yellow cheese, a dollop of sour cream and some tomatoes. That was it. These were the worse nachos for a price tag of over $10. Do better! Our entire table ordered burgers and 2 of them had to be returned because the meat was not hot. The new burgers we received were hot, but it took about 15 minutes to get them. Overall, I was disappointed with this location. They seem very disorganized, food quality has gone done considerably and they need to look at serving portions. When one person has a huge amount of fries on their plate and the person next to them has a ¼ portion of what they received means that there is no quality control of what they are serving customers. read more

Glory Days Grill - Glory Wings and Spicy Garlic - Sports Bars Near Me - Gainesville, Virginia

This is a local chain that is located in the heart of Gainesville. If you live within a few miles, this is a great neighborhood bar to watch a sports game or road with friends. The TVs have numbers and you get your own personal soundbox that you can synch with the TV of your choice. I was impressed with the selection of beer on tap. I was expecting a lot less with their selection but they actually have sown local brews on tap---and several stouts. read more

We have ordered take out from here twice and decided to eat in today. The food is exactly what one would expect from a sports bar. It tasted great and was brought out in a timely manner. The biggest selling point for us is that our server and the manager went over ingredients in EVERYTHING with a fine tooth comb. I am highly allergic to onions and the manager, our server, and the head cook were meticulous in making sure that none of my food even came into contact with onions. It isn't too often that staff goes to that length to make sure I am safe. We will definitely be going back. read more

I have had the hamburger and thel Reuben and they were both very good. This last time I had thel fried Cod with French fries, onion rings, and cole slaw. All the food was very good. This is one of my favorite places to hang out and eat. Nice atmosphere with all the TV screens and friendly wait staff. Food is always served warm. Wait staff is excellent. They have a great variety on their menu. Remember, this is a sports grill, nothing fancy restaurant. read more

This place is straight up ate up! We tried this place about 3 years ago & was very disappointed with the clueless service & the food was absolutely sub par. I remember ordering grilled cheese & soup & the soup was cold. We decided to give it another go figuring that maybe we visited on an "off" day a couple years ago. NOPE.... The place was almost empty at lunchtime on a Saturday. I ordered the Holy Guacamole burger & all I can say it that it was completely tasteless. No seasoning on the meat & though it claimed it was spicy, it was not in the least. The guacamole tasted like nothing & the texture was mush. My husband ordered the buffalo chicken salad as he raved about having it at the Lorton location & said how good it was. THERE WAS NO COMPARISON! He said it did not even taste like the same dish..the greens were not even fresh..gross!! read more

I have been to many restaurants this one near you? Keep driving! Service was a complete disaster. When the server made a mistake and forgot something she avoided us for 30 MINUTES! Had to ask another server for our check! Not too mention, we bought guacamole and there was an avocado pit in it! When i asked about it, i was told well must have been in the container. Wow! Not even a sorry. After waiting for 30 minutes to get a check it was wrong. Server brought me a charge slip with no itemized bill. The manager couldn't even get it right. Listen the mcdonalds has better service than this place. Trust me KEEP DRIVING!!! read more

Glory Days Grill - Here is how you get guacamole! It comes with seeds and all!!!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Gainesville, Virginia

I've given this Glory Days a few chances, each time the food and service is subpar. The last time I went in was definitely the last time I'll ever go there. I got the "pulled pork bbq sandwich" and honestly, it was disgusting. The pork was fatty and not at all tender, it did not taste smoked, it tasted boiled. The mashed potatoes I got as a side were cold and flavorless. The same with the cheese fries, cold and flavorless. The restaurant was not busy at all, yet it took forever to get the food and drinks. Every time before we had the same deal, flavorless and cold food with lukewarm, slow service. Never again. If you want fresh, delicious food close to this location, hit up the Japanese steakhouse, Musashi's. Now that is worth every penny. read more

Being that I just moved here from Manassas and this location being closer I would recommend it to friends or family read more
