A friend of mine and I had the pleasure of Dining at Sidelines Sports Eatery & Pub in Maumee (OH) this past Friday evening. My friend and I had Ordered the Patty Melt with string fries. I cannot recall the last time I had a meal that tasted better! The service was also second to none! A huge "shout-out" to the Cook, Sean Glidden, and his culinary expertis! I will be certain to recommend my family and friends to have Lunch or Dinner there. Their service and meal preparation could not have been better! read more

The beer was great! I only ordered potato skins. They were greasy for some reason. The host and bar tender took a while acknowledge or check on me. Overall, it's an ok place. Can't say much about the food since I only order an appetizer. read more

The breaded mushrooms were the strangest thing I've had in a long time . First , the appearance is so unappealing . The mushrooms were almost black in color . There were parts of the outside that were super hard to eat . My server did not ask me if everything was good . My server did not smile once . Hmmmm I used to love this place read more

This sports bar was a nice place to get a good bite during a game or a late night snack. The food was good and the service was even better. The bartender was extremely nice in assisting with the menu. read more

I've been to Sidelines Maumee about 20 times going back to the old location at the corner of Holland & Dussel (Luxe laser now). My favorites are the ribs, fowl balls and chicken bacon ranch pizza. This trip I tried the roast beef and gravy sandwich with mashed potatoes. Unfortunately, it was not great. The beef and bread were okay, but the gravy had an off taste. Was it medicinal or plastic-y? Maybe both. Tasted like the container it was microwaved in. Mashed potatoes were the powder variety. Hey, sides here are only $2.59 - cheap by today's standards. Packo's roast beef and gravy blows this away. We also got cole slaw, a side salad, waffle fries and steak fries, all decent. The pretzel appetizer was a miss as the ends were hard and accompanying queso dip was flavorless and too small. Try Lucky's in Oregon for a phoenomenal pretzel app. The star of the order... the barbecue fowl balls were delicious. They are surely prepped in-house and ours were freshly made. Only quibble with these is at $13.78 including a side of ranch, they are overpriced. Same thing at Jed's costs $10. At least you get a big portion. A suggestion to management would be to add a point of sale to the hostess station. You know, get carryout customers on their way a little faster. Overall, I like Sidelines and they have some good things going for them. read more

Ch ch chaaaaain. Yep its another sport bar chain. Been a few times, odd service. Asked to sit outside and the host looked at my a little strange. It was summer, it was open. Offered to even just come inside to the bar for drinks. She gave us a server So both visits have been during beginning of football season and we sit on the patio. They actually have a large TV out there and will put on the game of your choice. Inside has lots of TVs but too hectic to be competing with the Browns fans. Its going to take a while and usually at least 2 people to figure how to get the game on. Food: Well we got some chicken chunks 1 time. Just not very flavorful. Its bar food. After that we just go n get drinks. Service is slow on the patio and I went in to find somebody at 1 point so that needs work. Would recommend for drinks and the patio for sports. How bout them Cowboys! read more

Even though you don't see a lot of minorities which you should the food is pretty good I love the pizza and potato skins.

Worst nachos I've ever had were terrible. Even the chips were stale. The service wasn't so hot waited and waited

Always the best place to hangout with friends and family. Good food great service reasonable prices.

Took 45 mins for a burger in an empty restaurant, I asked for lettuce tomato onions and mayo on my burger and this is what I got for 33$ I never write reviews but I just drove 14 hours across the country and got off the highway to sleep and eat and this is what I got read more

Very tasty food with decent service. Always a great place for lunch or dinner. Good fair price.

Average chain sports bar. Nothing more or less to really say about it. Ordered the marinaded chicken that had zero marinade or seasoning. Just call it chicken if that's what it's going to be. Mac and cheese left soemthing to be desired. Service was okay. Nothing special to write home about. Toledo has far better options for sports bars, even chains. read more

We were hungry, no pictures... Vegan burger with onion rings instead of fries was a great choice after sitting in the car all day. Spouse enjoyed SW salad w blackened chicken. Portion was dinner size, good not too big. We each had a cocktail , Manhattan & Martini- both were very nice & we were happy that the bar tender actually knew what they were doing. Wednesday is family day but there weren't too many kids. Service was not rushed which we appreciated after our long drive. We'll be back. read more

We had the queso nachos & a cheese pizza to split. Both were amazing!! Beer was cold & service was great!! We were traveling & went here 2 nights! Would highly recommend!! Great bar & restaurant!! read more

Good place for some great drink specials! We came in on trivia night and the bar are was packed. The questions were great and the crowd loved it. Good place for games and drinks! read more

Place was clean and pretty busy considering it was the middle of the day. I only had a couple of adult beverages and my buddy had Chicken Chunks of some sort and said they weren't very good and wouldn't order them again. Our server was very pleasant and working her butt off. Overall not a bad experience or place to go. Definitely a sports bar vibe type of place and food. read more

1st time here. We just wanted a drink and some bar food to watch the Browns game. We ordered the loaded fries, mozz sticks, and medium hot chicken chunks. The fries must have been hanging out awhile before we got them because the cheese was all congealed, the fries cold and soggy AND I found a hair stuck in them. If they had been hot and hair free they would have been good. The chicken chunks were OK but I couldn't taste the thin sauce at all so they were disappointing. Hard to mess up mozz sticks they are what they are. I just wasn't overly impressed with anything and I can get bad bar food 100 other places. I don't see a reason to go back. read more

Food is great but service is hit or miss. Came here a few times on lunch, one day you'll have your food within 20 minutes and quick service then another day you'll have 10 minutes left to scarf by the time you get your food. Today's visit was waiting 30 minutes for your food and they never stopped to check in on you or check on your food.. Think it's the last time I'll go. read more

Lunch today charged for the wrong food and the waitress would not make adjustment. 1:15 minutes to get the food to the table.

Seating was fairly quick, food was okay, my waffle fries were cooked right but kids and wife's were way overcooked. Food a little greasy even for sports bar foods, we went through a lot of napkins for hands and even to mop up puddles of grease on the food. I tend to love classic American food but this was nothing special and nothing I'd go out of my way for, I guess if friends wanted to go then fine but short of that, no. read more

It felt dirty in the restaurant (2022). Old, dirty wall-to-wall carpet, dim lighting.... Like a dive bar.

All i can say.Was shit from the time i walked in.The fork had hard food still on it.When food was at the table.Also had old food stuck on the place nasty.Maybe they need a new dishwasher. read more

A little disappointed in lunch. Best food ordered was the chicken wings. Burger was also serviceable. The chicken on the 'grilled chicken' seemed to be canned chicken. Same within the chicken ranch wrap. read more

Let me begin by saying that we have never been disappointed by the food or the service. Our waitress on Wednesday night was amazing. However, I have a disability in which I'm sensitive to sound. I let her waitress know because it was trivia night and the music was so loud that it not only caused problems with my disability, but it hurt both mine and my husband's ears and made it difficult to hear the waitress or the waitress hear us or talk among ourselves. I asked the waitress if she could ask the trivia gentleman to turn the music down. She explained to me that she has asked before due to other guests request and the trivia guy said no. So I requested that she go to her manager and ask her manager to get it turned down because it was causing issues with my disability. She came back to the table and she told us the manager said no, but when she explained he did turn it down, however, five minutes later went back to full blast. I've always enjoyed going sidelines, but I shouldn't have to avoid a certain nights due to a disability. I'm letting you know this because I hope in the future sidelines will do better with those that have disabilities such as mine. read more

Service was great. That's all I can say good about this visit. Chicken bacon ranch wrap was so dry there couldn't have been any ranch on it. And I didn't see a speck of bacon. The waffle fries were way over cooked. And the draft beer wasn't very cold. We usually have good food there. Just not today. read more

Sidelines. I think not. Should be called," Right On The Freggin Field ". For reals yo. Came in, went to the bar. Ordered a beer. They totally poured it and I drank it. It was awesome. Finished brewski. Ordered another. Guess what? They poured it. Finished that coldie. It was awesome. Bing bang boom, Oh yeah read more

I swear this establishment has the best wings in town! They are so good and they melt in your mouth! I would say that sharing 10 is plenty because they are quite filling. Sidelines is, in my opinion, one of the best eatery's in Toledo. The bar is great, the booths are great, the service is great, the whole restaurant is great!!! read more

This was a first time visit for me so keep that in mind. I do not live in the area but several people remarked on the ribs and the wings. Since I am lover of both, I figured I would give it a try. I did, in fact, order both (Wings and Ribs) and while I was far from disappointed... I can't go shouting from the rooftops about the food. It's was ok. Nothing was like... OMG!!! or these are off the hook!!!! But... I'd encourage you to see/try for yourself. We all have a different tastes. In all? The service was amicable. The place is a bit, needlessly, dark but otherwise agreeable. They do a good job with their TVs and game variety. My only true disappointment was with their digital menus on tablets. Just to be clear... I LOVE menus on tablets. But these were disgusting! Sticky, old fingerprints, food droppings... I mean... if you're going to leverage this great idea; please - PLEASE- maintain the tablets. Wipe them down. Keep them clean. Tablets notwithstanding, I will visit again. I'd love to update this with 4 stars as they have so much promise. read more

Wife got a free birthday burger in the mail. (A paper not the actual burger) it did the trick and got us here. I had the turkey reuben(watching the weight) she had a burger. That was just me tasty sandwich and burger. Very surprised at the quality and amount. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Try this place out. Sorry the picture is shitty read more

I've been to Sidelines Maumee a handful of times... some days were better than others. Some days, they're food is spot on and absolutely delicious. Then there's days like 9/12 when my garbage balls taste like they were cooked with fish and not good. I recommend Sidelines as a whole, just go to the Mellwood avenue location in Toledo - not Maumee. read more

Burned the crap out of my well done hamburger. I guess well done in their language means " blacken it all to hell for you, sir?" "Extra crunch with your meat?" The beer was as good at this place as anywhere else.....Kroger, for example read more

Can't tell you a thing about it. Was seated and for approximately 15 minutes my family and I watched several servers walk right past us without a word. Another couple was seated and a server (one who walked past us to get to them) greeted them within moments. So we left. One star cause the menu looked decent. read more

As a former kitchen worker, I have been wrestling with my moral compass over the fact that I should reveal back of house practices to the customers. During my employment, I can count on one hand the amount of times I saw line cooks wearing gloves during the preparation of food, if a fryer item was dropped, they would toss it back in the fryer to "kill the germs" and consistently disregard standard food prep guidelines (thawing food with warm water, cross contamination, leaving food uncovered and exposed to air for lengthy periods of time, etc). I have warned all my friends and family not to eat there and would warn everyone else to stay away. The safest and cleanest thing about this restaurant are the toothpicks that are in little plastic sleeves. read more

Staff is extremely friendly and the food is good! Place is clean and they have plenty of tv's! read more

Sidelines Sports Eatery - Maumee - Good food! - American Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

This is the typical sports bar/pub, a million TV's, smells like stale beer from the taps and beer soaked laminate flooring which shows swelling from the suddzy liquid. We have been here 3 times. They offer the The Toledo Famed Chicken Chunks lightly breaded, not bad. The burgers are average most likely preformed patty which un-natuaralized the texture of a true American burger making it chewy. Now the Beef Philly. Not many places can get this right. Either the meat is horrible or the bread is cheap or tough to chew. Sidelines has it almost right! Add some mayo and this sandwich is perfect The beef is grilled just right and topped with caramelized onions and melted mozzarella cheese. It is huge and is too much to eat with the chewy waffle fries you get with it. Skip the fries and eat the sammich!! If you desire the chewiness of waffle fries then eat half of the sandwich and take the other part home. I decided to write this review because I had the cold half this morning and was amazed of the flavor it had. This was absolutely the best left over hot sandwich I ate cold. (Try to make sense of that). This last visit we were given a tablet with the menu on it. Not to order but to look at picture and read descriptions of the foods available. I clicked on; KNOCK-OUT - $10.99 Forget the bun. Our 1/2 lb burger in between TWO grilled cheese and bacon sandwiches! The picture looked like something I wanted to eat and suffer from later with food coma. I order this medium rare, the whole time all I could do is think how I would enjoy every bite of this amazing looking sandwich. When it came to the table it was like finally meeting a blind date, the excitement went away. It was half the size of the picture and the meat was well done. The description was to the tee however excluding the part about the dry chewy meat patty. I ate it, rinsing it down with my tea while I watched my wife enjoy half of her amazing Philly. Note to self; Don't get the chewy waffle fries!! read more

Decent place for a chain. Good for a quick lunch. Better local restaurants in the area.

Went last Friday around 8pm. They were very busy as it is trivia night. We were seated in about 15 minutes which I didn't feel was a bad wait time. Upon being seated we were promptly greeted and drink order was taken. Got our drinks and appetizer very quickly but it was downhill after that. First, the mojo dip appetizer is my favorite thing there but the portion is very small for the price. It is somewhere between $8-$10 and you get a large amount of pita chips with a small portion of dip. Do yourself a favor and just go next door to GFS and get a tub of it for $15 and have it at home when you have a craving. Next, our drinks were not refilled. Our waitress came back to the table a few times but never offered a refill and when we would attempt to ask, she was already gone. Finally, I live just a few minutes away and barely made it home before my dinner made a grand exit. I had the mojo dip appetizer, and half of a turkey reuben with hard waffle fries. No alcohol was consumed either but something in the food hit me like a ton of bricks. My friends daughter also complained that she was not feeling well after eating. read more

Frequented Sidelines restaurant for the second time in over 10 years, second visit similar to first, which should explain why the lack of visits, nothing to provoke frequency. Food is bland, flavorless, and poorly executed. Many creative ideas, but without proper execution - meaningless. Fowl balls, creative approaches to an ordinary menu selection. Wife ordered fowl balls with mash potatoes, very creative application but balls were over cooked, mash potatoes were pasty, gravy however was done pretty well, not enough mind you to carry the dish. I ordered the perch dinner as recommended by a patron. Recommendation proved to be misplaced, absolutely no seasoning to the fish, cooked moderately well, but flavorless - a sign the fish had sat to long before preparing and presentation. The coleslaw was limp and lifeless, a complete loss to a simple and enjoyable dish. The fries, though good, not to order, knowing they're streak fries, asked for extra crispy (or well done), came out as ordinary. Drink prices, though comparable, still to high. Beer and wine choices are limited, ordinary and comparable, which means if you have an above average palette forget it, order water. I enjoy a deep flavorful brew, porter, stout, top of line lager, not to be found on their offerings. Also like a nice wine to complement my meal, once again, sorry about your luck, absolutely no understanding of pairing. Bottom line, great ordinary, mediocre, nothing special, substance to stuff in your mouth eatery. My recommendation is, If you're not desperate, look else where's. read more

A group of us ordered take out. We were looking for something simple and quick yet not fast food pasted thru a window. The food was prepared as ordered and was hot. The Chef "R.J." made sure the special orders were on point and mistake free. Excellent job to all the folks at Sidelines. I really enjoyed your service & food. read more

Dirty nasty bathrooms, floors. If that's what happens with the public areas, I bet its worse in the areas you can't see.
