With all the TV screens and the mirrored walls, it's surprising patrons don't have seizures upon entering this sports bar. It's like the Best Buy television section coupled with a sport fanatic's funhouse.

Yankee Doodles is a torrent of testosterone with medium, big and jumbo screens that broadcast whatever sports game you want to watch. The bar has plenty of beer brands on tap and drink specials during NBA playoffs, March Madness and the Super Bowl. However, not all sports at Yankee Doodles are just for spectators. The bar has hourly rates for the pool tables, along with coin-operated foosball, air hockey, Super Shot basketball and video game machines. All that activity tends to work up an appetite, and there's a full menu with buffalo chicken fingers, pizza and hamburgers. For vegetarian sports fans (they exist), the portobello mushroom burger is a healthy alternative.—Mai Dinh

Anyways, I would avoid this place at all costs. There is no excuse for service like this. If you can’t run a business then close down and open that space for someone who can.
