    That’s means it’s time get in front of a TV, grab a beer and food and watch Trae Young, the Atlanta Hawks and the other NBA teams go to work. But where? Here are the best Atlanta sports bars to watch the NBA.

    Our beloved Hawks are pretty decent this year, and that means we can show hometown support by repping those vintage ATL Jerseys.

    Here are the top Atlanta sports bars to watch the NBA playoffs 

    To find out where the Atlanta sports bars are that have huge TV screens, good drinks, great food, accommodating servers, hip bartenders and more, we culled numerous reviews from our friends at Yelp, Google and TripAdvisor. This is what we came up with.

    Here are the best Atlanta sports bars to watch the NBA this season:

    STATS Brewpub

    300 Marietta St NW, Atlanta, GA 30313, (404) 885-1472

    Atlanta Sports Bars: Where To Watch NFL Playoffs - STATS brewpub

     
    The go-to sports bar in downtown Atlanta, STATS is a short walk from the Omni, CNN Center and College Football Hall of Fame. Inside the brewpub, customers can try their hand at tabletop beer taps and exquisite food with screens all around to watch the NFL playoffs.
     
    One Google reviewer says: “This place was incredible! Service was excellent, food was amazing! There were so many delicious looking things on the menu that my waitress had to help me out with a recommendation. I’m glad I listened to her, the BBQ Brisket Burger was out of this world. The fries were really good too. And then she talked me into getting the key lime pie, it was every bit as good as everything else was. I will definitely go back whenever I’m in Atlanta again.”
     

    Hooters in downtown Atlanta

    209 Peachtree St. NE Atlanta, Ga 30303

The staff here are awesome and Chef Hector is very engaging. He usually makes great recommendations in case you find yourself unsure of what to order. This restaurant is def my fav!”

    Dugan’s Restaurant

    best sports bars in Atlanta
     
    Dugan’s has been a reliable go-to spot in Midtown Atlanta about as long as its nearby neighbor, the Clermont Lounge. Lively entertainment, a constant dancefloor and all the chicken wings and beer you could want make this place a great sports bar.
     
    Here’s why this is one of the best sports bars in Atlanta: “Great dive bar complete with sassy bartender, interesting cast of characters at the bar and great wings. The wings have subtle differences from traditional wing sauces like Anchor Bar sauce. The drinks are poured strong. Their wings are better than their tenders. (They have a tendency to overcook). It’s a great respite for lunch compared to the chaos of Ponce City Market.”

    Ponce Sports Lounge

    3924 E Ponce De Leon Ave Clarkston, GA 30021

If golf is not your thing, they also offer table tennis or ping pong upstairs and pool tables downstairs. The putting area is spacious. Of course it is outdoors, but they offer large heat lamps directly over the seating area. There are two levels to the seating area. The first is a high bar with chairs. The second is a u-shaped outdoor sofa with a center table. All food and drink orders can be placed from your bay. For each game, each player gets 20 chances to “put the ball in the hole”. You can take all 20 swings in a row or rotate players as you’d like. If you aren’t interested in playing any of the game options, you can also dine in or have a round at the bar. Enjoy!”
