Benchwarmers Eatery & Sports - Bar & grill in Ottumwa - 2209 Roemer Ave, USA

We went on a Sunday, November 5th, and it was wonderful!!! We actually had no intention of eating there. Just picking up our kids from their grandma and this was the meeting place. My son was hungry and demanded we eat so we did and I'm so glad we did! I got tbe Cowboy Burger and my husband got the burger, cannot remember the name, but it has jalapeños and chipotle mayo and both were phenomenal! My sons got the Mac and Cheese and that was wonderful too! The regular and curly fried were homemade and fantastic. The homemade chips were chef's kiss! The ranch was to die for and even my husband who hates bbq sauce loves theirs!! The atmosphere wad so fun and our waitress was super attentive and friendly!! We will without a doubt most definitely be back! If we had any complaint at all it would be there was no changing station for kiddos in the men's room. If they added that the place would he perfect!! Would like to add they had a place outside to eat as well if it wasn't cold lol.

Great food, friendly service, sports bar atmosphere. Driving up it does not look like much but inside is very nice with plenty of seating. Definitely check this place out for sports games.

It took a while to get service. But once noticed we were well taken care of and well fed. Good burgers. I even like the house chips. And I'm normally not a fan.

Went here to watch the superbowl with the family 👪 It's a great place to watch sports and eat. Great food & huge soft drink glasses The staff were very attentive and helpful. Great place to bring friends & family

Great margaritas. The chips and salsa, nachos, tacos, pizza, wings are all good. Prices are pretty good as well. Waitresses are great! Bathrooms could be cleaned better/updated. The last couple times I have been here my friends and I have left not feeling the best from the food so not sure what is up with that.

Waitress was great! Only reason I am giving 3 stars. Over an hour wait in food. Management told me there was a sign on door stating all food orders would be a 1.25 hours. I took pictures and there was no sign. Kitchen was sending orders out of order out. Tables arriving after us being served before us.

I went there to have a fajita and they had taken it off the menu ugh, but I had a good hamburger though with what looked and tastes like homemade French fries 🍟 😋....they were really good. But what a bummer about the fajitas......cause they were the bomb! The waitress was pretty cool too 😎. And I can't even remember her name! Dang it! She had her hair up and it was blonde...that's all I know....

Easy atmosphere. Service was great, food is exceptional especially for the price. We will be back!
