PhxFlyer is correct downtown is not a great place if you're looking for a sports bar to watch a game.
While I kinda like Majerele's for lunch, it's also not necessarily a great sports bar either for a game-watching standpoint. And frankly, Hooters wasn't great either because most women aren't going to be caught dead there. I've never been to Crown Public House; I've always thought of it as a place where Dodgers fans slam Dos Equis before the game. And while Kettle Black is a great pub, it's not where I'm going to watch a game.
I agree a CBCB would be great in the Hooters space. I agree Ainsworth is underrated. I took my kids to watch football and eat brunch and it was great.
I'm disappointed the place in Cityscape above Arrogant Butcher became the Bourbon Room because that's a great space for a sports bar and now it's a stuffy expensive restaurant that seems doomed from the start. I went at lunch the other day and it was EMPTY.
I'd like to see something that resembles a dive bar that is just bar food, flat screens and drinks at reasonable prices. I know the price per sqft doesn't really allow for that in a lot of the towers but maybe in a cheaper building.
