My friend's mom was hanging out at Mike's Breakroom playing the slots, so we decided to stop by and join her for a bit. As soon as we walked in, the music was playing and a few people were shooting pool. This is definitely a locals' spot with a laid-back, no-frills vibe. It's also very smoker-friendly, so if you're not used to that, it takes a little adjusting. I grabbed a drink and ordered some wings, while my friend ordered the fish dinner. The wings were okay, pretty much exactly what you'd expect from classic bar food, nothing fancy. After we ate, we picked a few songs on the jukebox and ended up having a great time hanging out and listening to music. Overall, Mike's Breakroom feels like a true neighborhood bar where everyone knows each other. The staff was great and welcoming. If you're looking for a chill, local spot to grab a drink, play some games and unwind, you'd definitely enjoy this place. read more

My sister and friends decided we'd meet up at Mike's for a chill night since there was nothing else to do. The crowd was laid back. It was a pool tournament so that was a little vibe!! The fun ambassador at the door was nice. He checked id's as we entered. There were a few open tables so we got cozy and played a few songs on the digital jukebox. It's $1 per two credits or $10 for 24. I think because the tournament was going on the music volume was lower than usual, but still cool. I ordered fish and chips, my sister got cheese steak, and my friend got wings. My fish looked good. It was a little bland but I'm glad they gave me hot sauce and tartar sauce to help. It was fried hard like I requested. It was ok. The coleslaw was flavorless, but we're in a bar so I didn't expect Michelin star food. Lol. The fries were a little overcooked. My sister enjoyed her cheese steak, she said the pickled jalapenos made it pop. My friends wings were simple but decent. A little extra lemon pepper seasoning would have took them up a notch and gave them more flavor. We stayed a few hours and enjoyed ourselves. It wasn't so loud that we couldn't hear each other talk. So that was a plus. They have a few dart games, pool tables, and a quarter pusher game. The staff was friendly. It's a neighborhood bar so you'll see the same people normally. A decent time for sure. I'd return!! read more

I really enjoy coming here. I always have a grand time. Bartenders are good. The atmosphere is friendly. Drinks are reasonably priced. The gambling machines are a hit to have extra fun too. read more

The best neighbor bar friends family food games you can't ask for anything better and it's a neighborhood bar that's what makes it special

The steam shrimp and fried Swai is my favorite 2 items on the menu I have also met some phenomenal people playing the machines,

Stopped by because it is conveniently right acrossed from hotel. Read reviews about their steamed shrimp and it did not disappoint! And it arrived quick. I am not a smoker but read reviews regarding allowing smoking inside which almost discouraged me because I hate cigarette smoke. It is allowed but the bartender was kind and I shifted to the end away from one person who was so it wasn't bad at all. Didn't even smell it. Good music and good vibes. Came on a Monday night around 2030 and appeared to be just the regulars and they all seemed pretty chill and everyone was enjoying themselves. Even as a non smoker I plan to return. It's a nice, relaxed placed. read more

Trash, I get a drink and sit at the bar that 2 older lady's let me have, I get a Busch light and I'm sitting there minding my business when a female and some male sit ext to me. I said hey and she immediatly asks me to buy her a shot in which I reply "no I'm not going to buy you a drink spice you're with him". She says they are not together and I tell her no again and then she proceeds to throw her drink in my face and we are the thrown out of the bar. Mind you I just said No but the bartenders and the bouncer said I was the problem if you want to be told you're a man and yore the problem already is not the bartenders decision. read more

I don't have a high level of expectation for sports bars but Mike's unfortunately didn't meet that low bar. Service is okay, I guess. There were 3 servers and they all seem to work as a team to serve the customers. They've worked there for awhile and they know a good amount of the patrons, so they definitely go out of their way for them. I've only been here a couple of times - this is maybe my first or second time here since it became Mike's (it used to be an A.J. Gators, I believe, and something else before that) and I've never felt very welcome. I was helped by all three servers and none of them were rude or mean, just... lacking. Since I was there during the NFL games they only offer a limited menu of basic bar food. I think the quality of their food is my biggest issue since I ordered their boneless wings and they seemed more like chicken fingers. You could tell they were of the frozen variety, and to boot they were overcooked and very dry. They served crinkle-cut fries - normally a safe option but they did nothing for me, either. One of my friends wanted to hit this spot up because apparently they make some good tacos. But they don't serve it during NFL so we missed out. I guess if I come back when there's no football I can give those tacos a try, but why bother when Tailgate still serves their full menu during games? Oh well, that's what my friends get for not listening to my suggestion. And that's what I get for showing up despite their poor choice, haha. JV read more

I never leave a bad review, today that changes. First we walked in front door, that's the smoking entrance, gross! No greeter no one to guide us where to go. We walked in the back and found a non smoking room but again had no idea if we could sit down because it appeared to be a private party but not one worker attempted to clue us in.... Truly disappointed so we left. read more

Nice neighborhood spot to chill and drink.. walking distance from the house..so far friendly people and mature adults..

I've been visiting other bars recently, and I no longer go to Mike's Break room. The place is almost empty, all the time. The best thing they had going for them was their awesome bartender Josh, but on my last visit, even he has moved on. There is just nothing going on here. Inland reef down the street has more action/pool/Poker leagues/tasty menu. Tailgates Sports Pub has more class (non-smoking too) with different events nightly. Any place has more going on than Mike's. I mean if you want to drink a beer by yourself, just stay home for cheaper, as opposed to coming here! read more

Mike's Breakroom catered a party for a private memorial for my brother in law. The food was excellent and the service was the best. Shout out to Tonya for taking everybody's drink orders and providing great service. It was a memorable day with good food and good friends. read more

It was packed a Halloween weekend which is what this rating is based on. I definitely need to check it out again

When you enter the first set of double doors, you are greeted by the overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke. The second set allows you to see it. Couldn't go any farther. read more

I only go to mikes for the fish tacos the absolute best so big so satisfying yummy the drink wasnt bad either depends on the bartender i guess no complaints there but my biggest complaint is the smoking OMG when i left an got in my car i smelled like i just smoke 8 cigars and 20 cigarrettes its ridiculous they have to do better with that . i like they played bingo my sis actually won 5 bucks so yall keep that goin but get that smoking out of there or put the smokers in the back because the front door is the first impression a customer gets and that smoke will turn them around at the door so instead of non smokers in the back switch that around and i think yall be ok keep the fish tacos just the way they are .i might come get one today happy cinco de mayo read more

Been there two weeks in a row just to see if the first weeks 50 minute wait was a fluke. It was not. I waited for 40 minutes with no one asking if I wanted a beer, a drink, food nothing. Maybe it's because I was wearing my team colors, maybe it was because I was sitting alone, maybe I don't understand the rules of this place. I left. I will not be going back. read more

Management/owners called and said the employee below doesn't work there anymore. This is good news because she went the extra mile and threatened me here in my Yelp messages. Owners were so kind and apologetic and offered dinner on the house next time we're in. Thank you so much! Super kind and professional. read more

Awesome bar, pool room. Very good food. Very very polite staff. I would definitely go there often. They have the best fish tacos I have ever had. read more

This cute little bar makes some delicious reasonably priced food. I love the shrimp and my husband loves the ribeye.

My favorite little place to go after work and relax. The bartenders treat everyone like a regular and are always going above and beyond to make sure you have a good night. read more

Good food, good service, good people. Only draw back is I am a non smoker and this is a bar where smoking is permitted where we sat. Still kinda what I expect when eating in a good bar. Definitely heading here again.. beer cold as well .. read more

We ordered from Mikes on Friday. Their menu looked good and with the positive reviews we were excited to try a new local restaurant. Unfortunately that is were the good ended. We wanted to order the fish sandwich, we asked if the buns had seeds on them because the person who wants it cannot eat seeds. They told us that all of the rolls had seeds and recommended the more expensive fish platter. The buffalo chicken sub and the smoked sausage, peppers and onion over noodles. We placed the order at 11:30 for curbside pickup and we were told that it would be 30 - 40 minutes. I had a call at 12:30 so we had plenty of time to get lunch and bring it home for lunch. We called at 12:10 to let them know that were there. They informed us that it would be an additional 5 minutes as they were backed up. No problem still have plenty of time. At 12:15 it appears that someone was going to make a delivery they stopped by the car and told us that the kitchen was slammed and our food will be out shortly. Fast forward to 12:45, the driver returns and sees us still there. He goes in and comes out after a minute to give us our food. He had to go back in to get the bill. When he comes back we says here are a couple of drinks for our wait. It turns out the sandwich comes with a drink so the couple of drinks turns out to be one. Plus if he didn't do that then we would have not received the drink we were suppose to get. We got home 12:50. I am now 20 minutes late for my call. But still try to put our best foot forward and we are anxious to try the food. First thing that we notice is that it is barely warm. It must have been ready much earlier but no one brought it out. The second thing that we notice is that the chicken sub roll doesn't have any seeds on the bun. WTF, were we purposely misled to sell a more expensive lunch? The buffalo chicken is not a chicken breast with buffalo sauce. It is pulled chicken with buffalo sauce mixed in. It was ok but not a lot of flavor. The smoked sausage over noodles was inedible. The noodles sat in the box with everything on top and the noodles became one big solid block of noodle. We were hoping to find a good local place close to home but instead found Mikes. read more

I have put off coming to this place for a while being that it is right outside of my neighborhood. Needless to say my first experience was amazing! The people are a awesome and the drinks aren't to expensive. If you are a pool player than this is your place! Hope you come out and enjoy yourself! read more

Ew. Just ew. If you're under 50 I wouldn't even come.in here, it stinks and it's DIRTY. I don't even want to put my arms on the table its so dirty. As far as the staff, I ordered a coke with lemon and asked for a drink menu and my fiancee ordered a bud light. I get a coke with no lemon and a food menu. We can't get out of here fast enough !! read more

I love this bar, I have been going to this bar for a long time now. The food is amazing no matter what you order, most of the people that come in there are regulars so there is always a familiar face to see, the atmosphere is the greatest out of any bar I have ever been to, very clean, lots of entertainment, trivia on Thursday nights, dart tournaments, Poker, Queen machines, and now they have have Powerhouse machines with a full bar in the back room. I do have to say I am really disturbed about a situation I witnessed on Friday November 13th. The Bartender/Bouncer assaulted one of his coworkers in front of customers, the coworker did absolutely nothing wrong YES this coworker was upset and arguing with another customer Mike came up to the coworker saying really rude and inappropriate things to his coworker instead of trying to defusing the situation Mike was adding fuel to the fire out of no where Mike hit his coworker, and when the situation was defused and the coworker left the premises Mike started bragging making fun of what he did justifying his actions stating the he doesn't give a $#%^, well I am sorry that was pretty disgusting, I have been there on several occasions when Mike is working he is the rudest bartender/bouncer I have ever seen in any bar. The most confusing thing to me was when I came in for football Sunday, and saw that he is still an employee with this company. I am sorry but in my opinion those actions are grounds for immediate termination. I do not understand why you would want someone who works in your establishment that would assault another human being and treat your customers disrespectfully. I really thought this was more of a family environment when it comes to employees and the owners, read more

Pretty good. Their burgers are about 8.50 and will def fill you up. Taste very similar to a burger king burger though. The only thing I didn't like was the waitress charged me an extra 3$ for no reason. read more
