Patriots Pub and Grill - House salad - American Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

The service was fantastic. Attentive and polite. I should've left a bigger tip. My sons and I were our way home, passing through from Baltimore and needed to stop for something to eat. The boys picked this place in a whim. Everything was good. The ground beef on the nachos did have a homemade taste and I liked that. I got the steak and cheese quesadilla. My older son got the breakfast burger. My younger son got a cheeseburger. I don't see my self in that area by chance to go again anytime soon but I definitely recommend for anybody in the area or passing through. read more

Great lunch specials and especially friendly staff. Daily Specials and my favorite are the Thai Hot Chili Wings. Ask them to finish them on the grille. YUM!!! read more

A decent restaurant with average food. We were here with a party of 10 on a Friday evening for their pub trivia night. Pros: Can make a reservation for a large group on trivia night. Was seated right away. Service was great at the beginning. Pizza night special on Fridays (and the person who ordered the pizza from our group enjoyed it) Funnel Cake Fries Brownie Sundae Pitchers of beer Cons: Southwest salad-not good Burger-just okay Chicken nachos-not enough chips and not very flavorful Service become very slow at the end of the evening. Waitress was helping with the bar so that kind of stuck to get final bill Most likely would not be back! read more

I had the sliders last week of April 2026. Best sliders I've had in years. The buns were warm and toasty and tasted like they were homemade. The Onion rings were scrumptious. I could have eaten two dozen onion rings if my wife hadn't accompanied me. read more

Service and food was excellent! Karaoke was fun! Great people! I will come here again!

Had pasta with bacon in it and enjoyed the meal I will definitely be coming back to dine and do business here

A friend suggested stopping here after a movie and we have been visiting regularly ever since. The loaded tots are great as are the funnel cake fries. While those are our base items almost everything on the menu we have tried has been good. There are ways folks alter items that taste great as well, the one we learned about most recently involved the pizza being folded and cut into strips making it easier to share and snack on. The drinks here are legit as well. I'm comfortable mentioning some preferences and taking the drink suggested and prepared. The wait staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. As an added bonus they have karaoke the first Saturday of the month which is enjoyable to watch & to occasionally participate in. This is not a fancy location, it is laid back and you can tell there are some serious regulars in addition to folks who visit multiple times. It has a bar in the middle & some outdoor seating out front which unfortunately seems to cater to smokers. It's laid back and is one of those places where people you don't know sometimes pull up a chair and want to chat (often after a couple of strong drinks). read more

Great vibes for a pub. Felt super welcomed as soon as I walked inside. Would definitely come back.

I would rate it zero Stars. I've been coming to this place since it was Bridges back in the '90s. They haven't even updated the bathroom since then. There's literally a household toilet in there. Walls beat the s*** no soap nothing. It's sad to see how business is like this operate it's just a bunch of lowlife drunks. Not sorry. Sad to see. read more

Wife out of town and you have to feed two growing boys? Take them here. Awesome food and a family friendly environment before 9 pm. Service is top notch and the food is never disappointing. read more

Patriots Pub and Grill - Pizza bites!!! What's not to love. - American Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Patriots Bar & Grill feels like a true neighborhood hangout -- and there's a reason everyone there seems to be a regular. Just outside Old Town Fairfax, it's warm, welcoming, and friendly from the moment you walk in. The staff is great, the food is surprisingly good (don't miss the fried chicken BLT), and it feels more like meeting friends than going to a bar. read more

Patriots Pub and Grill - Amazing and delicious fried chicken BLT - American Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Exploring the area around GMU. Good service, decent food. Typical of most sports bars: a little loud, lots of TVs, kitschy decor. Tried the fried chicken BLT - generous portion. Delicious but rather dry. Could have used more sauce, seasoning. Onion rings = great. Fries not so much. Large selection of beers! Best part really was the friendly, welcoming, attentive staff. read more

Patriots Pub and Grill - Fried chicken BLT. - American Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Expensive. Service is slow. They get overwhelmed easily. Here is some more characters.

Great staff and atmosphere and my pleasure to be around. Staff is grateful and unbelievable.

Came here for lunch and the food was very good. We had chicken Philly sub and steamed shrimp and small Caesar salad. Everything was excellent. Server was Bar B and she was very outgoing and attentive Atmosphere was a little dark and dank like a typical pub bar in a college town. High recommend read more

Good bar and sports pub. The apps and specials are worthy. Had the Patriot lager and it was good. Bartenders were on top of it.

Great pizza and tacos and they are super nice to our kids and also laid back. What more could you want?

Excellent dive bar. Very rustic / Biker theme. The service was friendly and quick. The food was decent for the price. Stick with the staples in these type of short order kitchens. Burgers, handhelds, and wings. My first time here, but I think I will be going back more often. The Blue Iguana (a regular haunt for lunch) is going completely downhill. read more

A miraculous surprise!!! We had just gotten into Fairfax after 3 hours of fighting traffic and a rather rude hotel desk, so we were ripe for something comfortable and a good libation to take the edge off. What we found was a slice of sports bar heaven! I had a beer, my wife had a Moscato (do you how hard it is to find Moscato in most restaurants?!?). We ordered their chicken quesodilla for an app. What came out to us was prolly the best tasting 'dillas we have ever experienced! Everything was FRESH! NOT frozen, NOT packaged... FRESH!!! That chicken was as succulent and juicy! This was done RIGHT! Next came our Calzone bites. Yes, you read that right... Calzone bites! Loaded with FRESH sausage, ham, green peppers, cheese, bacon, black olives and mushrooms, these packed bites of heaven along with the freshest sauce we've ever had! This actually puts our fav Italian joint to shame and that says A LOT! That crust was both soft and crispy and add that sauce... just perfection. Thank you for putting a massive smile on our faces! read more

Super odd vibe, food was mid. Service was pretty good we went during music bingo but as a younger person it's definitely not meant for a younger crowd. Mainly an old biker hang out bar. read more

Came here with my friend not too long ago for a beer and some food. It's a no-frills experience but still very enjoyable, and a good place for catching up and reminiscing about the good ol' days. Patriots has a few outside tables, a bar surrounded by seats, and an area with tables. On this occasion, my friend and I sat at the bar and there happened to be a lively birthday party (or some sort of party anyway, I will admit my Spanish is rusty) in the table area. The internet juke box they have will serve your musical needs, and despite the nature of sports bars it wasn't actually all that loud. Had a bleu cheese burger and it was excellent and filling. Beer selection was reasonably good, and decently-priced as well. Service was pretty average though it's entirely possible my friend and I didn't look like the big-spender types. I used to be a bartender, I know how it goes. All in all, I enjoyed my visit here, and the unusual party going on in combination with my habit of requesting strange songs on internet juke boxes made this a fun time for my friend and I. My recommendation is you will like this place if you're having a casual outing with down-to-earth friends; don't take dates or picky friends here, they might not appreciate it like we do. Overall: 4.0 stars ----- Pros: - Fun atmosphere without being overly loud. - Great food and drinks at reasonable prices for the area. - Late hours so you don't have to close up shop at midnight like some of the lamer places in the area. - Tons of parking in the lot outside. Cons: - Service is okay, not great. Make sure you bring someone you like to talk to, since the bartenders aren't much for socializing. read more

Patriots Pub and Grill - Bleu cheese burger. - American Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Great dive bar with fantastic service and atmosphere Give it a try you won't be disappointed

My family eats here a couple times a month, possibly more. We love coming here and breaking out some family games, really enjoy the menu options and choices/quality of the food, but have also had great treatment from the staff. They also have fun decorations, gambling machines if that's your bag, and fun nights to engage the customers (karaoke, trivia, etc.) Patriots should come up as a top option for Fairfax City on yelp. read more

The new location is infinitely better than the old spot! The new location on Main St. is much cleaner and comfortable than the location on Fairfax Blvd. ever was. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and the food is a step above standard pub grub. I usually get the white pizza as an appetizer, since they are one of the few places that actually has a small size pizza, and it is fantastic! They are also one of the few bars that carries non-alcoholic beer (I'm not a HUGE drinker) and they don't make a face at you when you order it. The food always comes out fast and hot, even when you're in a large group with a bunch of separate checks. They do have a enclosed "private room" that's great for meetings or groups as well, and they aren't stingy about letting people reserve it ahead of time. My only complaint is that they allow smoking in the outside areas, and you have to walk through the smoking area to enter the restaurant. This is a bit of a turn-off for those of us with breathing difficulties. read more

Patriots Pub and Grill - Wing heat scale - American Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

We've been here 3 times in as many months, each visit has been awesome. Amazing servers who actually talk to their customers and an owner who can always be seen on premise talking to his customers. The food has been fresh, hot, tasty and is delivered in a respectable amount of time. It's a very clean establishment, the restrooms are clean as well and the servers are constantly wiping down the bar and cleaning up after patrons. It's also important to mention that parking here is in abundance and it's located in a great location in Fairfax, Virginia. We've been on the hunt since we moved to Virginia looking for a place we can call ours, we've finally found it. It's a great locally owned and well managed Pub..........we're confident you'll have a great time if you choose to visit Manny (the owner) and his first class staff! read more

I rate this restaurant as maybe because it matters what waitstaff you get as to whether it is good service or crummy service. The food is OK no matter which service you get. The question is are you having good service or crummy service, unless you get service from the top - Brigette. And I can not wager what service you will have because it is so mixed. read more

The manager or bar tender Bridgette in PATRIOTS PUB and GRILL is very rude. One time I asked her a question and she referred me to someone else. Thats why i hardly ever go in there anymore. read more

My first visit. No issues seating our large group. Service was fast, friendly and efficient. Food was good. Perfect place to watch sports. Nice big bar. They have outdoor seating with heaters for the smokers plus TVs. They have a private room available for groups. Plus the usual bar games and Karaoke on Saturdays. Plenty of parking. read more

Rough looking place in a great location in Fairfax City. Has a private room to escape the smokers. Pizza was good and a good value on Friday nights. read more

4/5, multiple visits, 2021. A great dive bar in the most complimentary way possible. Located in the lower level of an apartment building I probably drove by this place countless times without ever even considering stopping but I'm glad we did. Patriots combines great service with affordable prices and good food. The menu offers a number of pub favorites and a surprisingly good pizza option. The bar has both solid domestic beer options and great craft beer choices in addition to a standard full bar. If you are looking for a good neighborhood bar and grill, Patriots is an excellent choice. read more

I'm definitely a fan of Patriots. Firstly, great staff. Super friendly, funny and accommodating. You feel welcomed right off the bat. Secondly, always a good, diverse, fun crowd. Don't let the occasional group of motorcycles out front turn you off. Everyone is there for a good time, and it always is. There's a good mix of new folks, as well as long term Patriot regulars. Smoking is outside on the patio, which is also pet friendly. Thirdly, GREAT food and drink specials. The food, I have to say, is beyond expectation. It is GREAT, honest bar fare. The wings are big, with lots of flavor options. FANTASTIC burgers. Frickin' chili cheese dogs, c'mon, that's perfect for game day with some brewhaha. Best pizza in the area, imo. I won't get a pizza delivered ever again as I can just go get one to-go from Patriots. The taco pizza is super fun, and super delish, as is the grilled chicken pesto pizza. . .but honestly, just the basic cheese or pepperoni pies have been outstanding. For real. Great daily food specials, as well as gametime football specials. Drinks are priced great, poured perfectly, and there's always some specials going on. House shots are called tic-tacs and the selection varied daily. Good draught beer selection, and the redidi every inch of line in the place before opening, so no skunky beer to be had, A GREAT improvement over the old place that was in this location. Fourth, great tv's all over, shows all the sports, including Rugby, and get there early for Skins games, it fills up fast. Lastly, it's super convenient, large parking lot, easy to get into and out of. All in all, a great addition to FFX City, and I'm stoked to have them as a neighbor. I think they're going to do great here (they already are) and will be here for a long time to come. I look forward to many more outings to Patriots. read more

Patriot's is a cross section of America. Your local dealership mechanics will stand belly to belly with lawyers pleading their cases at the Courhouse. The Redneck "Happy Place" welcomes all and will not drain your wallet. Wild Rose is a scream and the service is excellent. read more

I went here because it was close to my place and insanely cheap. I had to dip when I noticed a lot of their customers dropped the n word with the hard r (even in front of the dishwasher who was African American). I like casual environments but I couldn't get past the clientele. I give it 3 stars because the service is commendable. read more
