Whether you’re celebrating a win, coping with a loss, rooting for your team or you just need a good place to gather with friends for food and drinks, Downtown Fargo has something to fit your needs no matter the season. Here are a few places you can watch your favorite game (for the sports nuts or not), while also enjoying delicious appetizers and addicting dishes.
Pounds
612 1st Ave. N
Whether you’re looking for a good burger, killer appetizers, 40s of beer, thoughtfully-crafted cocktails, a place to watch the game or even a dance party, Pounds is welcoming and gratifying in many ways. And with plenty of finger food to share (or not, depending on how addicted you become to these apps), Pounds is easily a great place to bring your friends and have a round or five.
The restaurant has also launched stellar new menu items to boot, so don’t waste any time getting your hands on any of it. We’re not joking when we say it’s addicting.
The Happy Hour menu and prices will be available from 4-6 p.m. and 9 p.m.-close every day.
Sidestreet Grille & Pub
404 4th Ave. N
With one of the largest beer selections in Fargo, live music, open mic nights, a full menu featuring hearty burgers, pizzas, and sandwiches plus plenty of space and natural light, Sidestreet is the perfect gameday and grub destination that you won’t want to leave. Who doesn’t love a juicy burger, perfectly fried finger foods and great specials?
Happy Hour runs Monday through Friday from 2-7 p.m. and all day on Tuesday, and features half-off appetizers (minus nachos and samplers) among various drink specials.
