The Best Sports Bars in Cleveland
If you're a die-hard Cleveland fan, you can rest easy knowing you made the right choice. After all, whether you're rooting for the Cavaliers, the Indians, the Browns, the Monsters or the Gladiators, our local teams are always fun to catch in the stadium, but equally as fun to cheer on in a local pub alongside fellow fans.
Through the wins and the losses, it is a fan's duty to wear his or her loyalty on their sleeve, so don your Cleveland apparel and hit one of these local sports bars. Here in the heart of Believeland, there are plenty of spots to celebrate your team!
Characters Sports Bar and Grill has served the Parma community for more than 20 years — and remains one of the most popular spots to catch up with friends and cheer for the home team! The venue is famous for their wings (the perfect medley of crispy, flavorful and spicy), but the fun community feel is really what makes this place a gem.
This bright and cheery bar is the perfect place to grab a casual bite with friends, play billiards, and of course, catch the game. Benny's is closed on Sundays and Mondays, but any other day of the week, the bar will showcase the most in-demand sports on the tv so you don't miss a play. While you're cheering, make sure to grab a sipper from the killer drink menu. Beergarita, anyone?
With a giant screen displaying the most in-demand sporting events, friendly service, hearty and seasonal fare and plenty of beer on tap, there's no mystery as to why Hooley House Sports Pub & Grille is so popular. In fact, this spot has been voted the best sports bar by Cleveland City voters for the past five years in a row!

The taps are filled with local and national craft beer, and the kitchen cranks out some of the best pub food in town. If you do decide to make your way to the actual game, Victory Alley is the perfect place for a pre-game celebration, located just steps away from Progressive Field and the Quicken Loans Arena.The Winking Lizard Tavern
