Lou and Harry's Sports Bar
Though Lou and Harry’s Sports Bar is in a college town, that doesn’t mean you’ll eat like a college student while you’re there. To elevate their food, the chefs have upgraded sports bar staples such as burgers, pizzas, and wings with inventive flavors and toppings. Beefy burgers arrive at tables topped with with warm chili con queso or barbecue sauce-slathered onion rings, and wings come tossed in one of 14 mild to mouth-searing sauces. Pizzas emulate the flavors of Philly cheese steak and buffalo chicken, each big enough to share with friends or trade with someone in exchange for their group of friends. Games are always playing on the bar’s giant TV and in warmer weather, you can enjoy pints of more than 60 varieties of beer on the patio.
