Multiple big-screen TVs line the walls at Playmakers, showing everything from NFL and NBA games to Premier League soccer and major sporting events. Whether you’re catching the playoffs or checking in on your fantasy football picks, there’s always something on to keep sports lovers entertained.
And don’t worry about time zones—the staff does an amazing job syncing up game times and ensuring key matches are available when possible. Grab a seat, order your favorite drink, and cheer on your team with fellow fans from around the world. The vibe is electric!
Food That Scores Big
What’s a game without snacks? Playmakers delivers the goods with a menu full of elevated pub favorites. Think juicy burgers, loaded nachos, crispy wings, sliders, onion rings, and decadent desserts like the signature Touchdown Sundae. Whether you’re sharing with friends or going all-in solo, there’s plenty to enjoy.
Bonus: There’s often a food challenge for those feeling extra ambitious. Think you can tackle a mountain of wings or finish the biggest burger onboard? Your name might end up on the wall of fame!
Arcade Fun for All Ages
It’s not just for the grown-ups. Playmakers also includes a retro-style arcade, perfect for families or anyone looking to test their skills. You’ll find classics like Pac-Man, air hockey, racing games, claw machines, and more. It’s a great way to sneak in a little friendly competition with your travel companions.
