It's also slightly annoying that they don't allow outside food in. My main gripe about this place is that smoking is allowed inside. You'll see guys in suits, hipsters, young, old, and everything in between. Something I love about this place is that the crowd is always very eclectic. The alley to get to the lots is pretty small so don't speed through it. You can park on westbound Robinson in the evenings or in one of the small lots behind the bars.
Parking can be a little tricky if you don't know the area. They also do food truck events every Tuesday. I've heard the food is okay, but I'm pretty much always going to choose Gringos next door. Some of the video games and all of the board games are free, but everything else is paid. Board games, ping pong, air hockey, skee ball, and some other stuff. I'm always just drinking and playing one of their other games. They have a half dozen pool tables but I've only played once. The beer list is extensive and the bartenders are usually pretty efficient. They have the cheapest prices for good beers anywhere in town. One of my favorite dive bars in Orlando, but you have to know what you're getting yourself into. While it may not be the absolute best place to go just to only watch your game, it is definitely a great place to go to watch your game while engaging in a wide range of activities while drinking from a wide range of beers. Overall, Sportstown is one of the best sports activities bars in Orlando. Trust me when I say it's fun to go from drinking and playing pool to fighting with your hungry hungry hippo. You'll usually see a bunch of people sitting down and engaged in a game of hungry hungry hippos or guess who. If you go into the game area, you'll see several more setups with tvs/game consoles, as well as dart boards, a plethora of board games, and other fun activities. Once you stop by the opposite side of the bar to get your drink, you will see a few tvs with game systems attached. You have to get on a list to rent many of the thing there and they can cost a couple bucks, but they are all worth it and very fun. When you proceed past the bar area, you see about 10-15 pool tables, a ping pong table/court with netted entrances (which helps keep balls from rolling into other areas), a few basketball-shooting games, a Foosball table, and a few tvs. The way they work with their drinks is you place an order, they give you a wristband with a number, and they write your drinks down in a book next to that number so that you can pay for everything based on that number in the end. You can order your drink there or on the opposite side (I recommend the opposite side). They have about 10 seats set up to watch 3 or 4 tvs. One entrance takes you to the game area (I'll mention more below), but I use the main entrance which takes you into their front bar area. It's located in the Milk District, and compared to the other small bars in that area, it's nice to have a place that is fairly large an active. Now, this place isn't for everyone, but it is a great place to go to have a drink and do something active in a bar. I've been to Sportstown a few times, and every time has been great. This is an absolutely awesome sports bar! The only downfall here is that they allow people to smoke indoors which I don't love, but not so much that it would stop me from coming back - this is still the first place I suggest in a night out! They don't sell liquor but they do have wine on tap if you ask nice enough ) They have a pretty big beer selection and their prices are super fair. No problem - there's plenty of other things to do! There's a ping pong table, corn hole boards, air hockey, dart boards and the walls are LINED with board and card games. On busy nights, there's usually a list for the tables and there have been a couple of times where we don't get a table at all before we call it a night. There are several pool tables that you can rent by the hour. It looks a lot smaller on the outside but once you walk in, it's much bigger.
It's right in the milk district (and strategically placed a couple of doors down from a Gringo's Locos) so parking can be a little tough on busy nights. Sportstown is probably my favorite bar in Orlando! I don't remember when or why we came the first time but I'm sure glad we did.
