March Madness 2011: Best Places to Watch the Final Four

1. 

A smaller establishment, individually owned, Lucky Baldwin’s is a great choice if you want a more intimate setting to watch the Final Four this weekend. It’s beer and wine only, but you are watching b-ball, so that’s what you’d be ordering anyway, right?

There are plenty of big screens to enjoy the real March Madness games too and a great $15.99 Eat & Play Combo!

3.

A sports bar by name, you know The Station will have the flat screens you’ll need to watch March Madness come to an end. Though they don’t have a food menu, there are restaurants conveniently located on either sides of the establishment. Play a game of pool or darts while you’re here.

4. The Yard House

It may be a chain restaurant, but this place rocks for watching the Final Four or any sports games year round.
