Playmakers Restaurant

+Lots of TVs for game day
+Large selection of beer on tap
+The brunch was one of the best I’ve had in a while
+The breakfast pizza was AMAZING. Made with a hash brown crust instead of dough...I will be going back again just to get this again

Overall we had a great experience for Weekend brunch. This is the sister restaurant to In A Pickle which constantly has a wait. Come here for many of the same brunch items without the wait!!

Owner of a popular Moody Street breakfast restaurant In a Pickle, Tim Burke, bought this bar that was literally “In a Pickle”. It is finally open again and this is great! This building housed the Moody Lounge from the late 1960th for 40 years. Moody Lounge was pretty popular back then - it had decent local live music in the 1970s. Then it became Robert’s Restaurant around 1999. Robert's Restaurant and Bar closed in 2011 and Stadium Sports Bar & Grill was opened. The name was altered to Playmakers Bar and Grill in 2013 after a change in ownership. I guess this place has some historical value for Waltham.

P.S. We visited this place recently. Under new ownership it is much much better than it used to be. Food is delicious. The idea of sliders is awesome. I would recommend to start with a slider tower so you can taste different sliders for only $20. The selection of craft beers on draft is quite impressive as well. I am glad that this place is now A+ local bar.

The menu is focused on sliders, which is great for someone that can never decide on what to get. I was able to try two different sandwiches - fried chicken and a juicy lucy, Both were fantastic! Shared onion strings, which were really great. I love that they carried the slider theme into dessert. We had the churro sliders, which were delicious. Only suggestion would be to include some wetnaps - as the icecream was a bit messy! Beer selection was good, included some local Mighty Squirrel beers. Plenty of TVs so that no matter where you sit you have a view, but wasn't overwhelming. Renovations in the bar area looks great, bathrooms not as much. But everything was clean!

Brunch was excellent! The berries and cream waffle was one of the best loaded waffles I've ever had. As good as their sister restaurant "In a Pickle" but without the wait.

Check out this cool spot for yummy sliders and a great selection of beers and cocktails. The new bartender Grace is a foxy lady. So pleasant, knowledgeable, and honest. Very refreshing!

Excellent food. Tried the might squirrel cotton candy and it was a good local brew. The staff was very friendly and the manager was personable and professional. 10 out of 10 would do again.

Playmakers is the best! Great staff, great management. The food is great for bar food and otherwise. Try the steak tips or chipotle chicken sandwich. Nachos and pulled pork sandwich are great too. Good beers on tap. Open and light atmosphere. 15+ tvs, will put on what you want. Very neighborhoody and welcoming. Definitely go!

So much to recommend about this gem on Moody- the outdoor big screen projectors, the huge list of beers on tap, the pineapple margs, the dynamite burger selection. Be sure to add this to your list of favorites on Moody.

Great food! Had the Hawaiian pulled pork and slaw.

The staff is friendly, food is extremely good (especially the sliders) and the price is reasonable. Good place to grab a beer after work.

Had a great burger! Loved the addition that mine had of the Mac and cheese. The fried pickles were very peppery.

Great staff, pretty good food, but I would just get whatever is half off that day! They have great events and tastings!

Local sports bar. Good food, decent selection of beers with a few different local beers rotating in monthly. The staff are great people.

Brunch was excellent and so were drinks - will definitely be coming back soon!

My go to place in Waltham. Good variety of beer. Nice sliders.

Great music, food, and atmosphere! Nice place to watch football. Service was excellent!

This place is so clean and the bartender was extremely gracious, that I have to say it was an honor bring my client in there! Thank you, Rev
