I live in Decatur, TN...so I visited Crossville to partake in some Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale on Draught. I had a Ribeye and took home a Pizza. The Ribeye was very Good. The side of Sugar Snap peas..excellent. My two issues are they are the first restaurant that Did Not give a Veterans Discount. I usually see 5-15%. The other issue was a 3.5% credit card fee, that is the highest I have seen. The Draft beer was expensive compared to the SAME in Chattanooga. The Pizza I took was OK.

Came here tonight with friends, 3 of us got the grilled shrimp and all agreed it was salty and way over seasoned. Even my fries were not that great,
But we truly enjoyed the lava cake. We will be back but won't get the shrimp.

Pretty good appetizers but way over priced, really 3 pretzel sticks almost $8, 4 sm cheese sticks $8, you were running a game special but won't allow the pretzel sticks? Really?
Your soft or non alcoholic beverage listis not good. No ice tea made on a game day? The tap water taste like swamp water,I am not a beer drinker, don't do much soda but wanted a diet which you have 2 choices, Pepsi as 1( do not like Pepsi!) After several questions to the waitress about any bottled NA drinks she found a diet Coke, great. Was charged $2.25 for a can of soda with no refills! Really?
The food was good,the waitress was nice but the prices were not good for the amount you got. This type of place does not
constitute Chicago prices!

Great food! Hubby & I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburgers and sides of Potato Salad and Broccoli Salad, Fries and Pinto Beans. Awesome. Definitely a Sports Bar atmosphere with a cheerful staff.

We come here every spring on our yearly golf trip. This place used to be good. This year it was awful. We stopped in for lunch after golf. I ordered chips and salsa for an appetizer. It was probably pace from a jar and stale chips. To make it worse it was $10.75!!!!! My fault for not paying attention. I ordered bbq wings and fries. Finally after 1 hour we got our food. My wings had no bbq sauce on them at all. None. I could barely taste the sauce. It was like they barely brushed it on. I had to ask for some sauce so I could get some on them. My son in law ordered a tenderloin sandwich. It was burnt to a crisp and he said tasted awful. He asked the waitress for another sandwich and she apologized and said they are training another cook. They should not have allowed that sandwich to leave the kitchen. I don’t know what happened to this place, but in my opinion it’s awful now. We will never return.

We use to go here weekly but no more last 2 times we stopped we couldn't get food. This time we stopped at 715 PM on a Saturday night and was asked if we were eating or drinking. When we said eating I was told we wouldn't be able to get food by the time they close at 10 PM. Last time we stop here.

We love trying new sports bars and found this place as the top rated in Crossville and we now see why!
The wings and fried pickles were AWESOME! We loved both very much.
Craft beer selections were great and the bartender was very helpful with helping me pick out some new ones to try.
The atmosphere was the best. Open space, clean, rustic, great outdoor patio area. Another added detail was that everyone was wearing ear pieces and walkies. If we needed something, we had it very quickly.
The kitchen closed at 7 and bar closed at 8. We were the last ones to leave but never felt like we were being kicked out or rushed.
Overall this place was by far one of our favorites and we will definitely be back with friends and family.

This is the best sports bar in town hands down and have been coming here since they opened. Food is great, great selection of beers, cocktail and wine. If there is a game you want to watch just ask and they will do everything they can to accommodate you where you sit. Large covered patio bar outside with more 4k TVs. Live entertainment most every Friday and Saturdays sometimes as well as some fun events added throughout the year. Don't believe the few bad reviews as they are normally people you couldn't make happy if you try. And as they say everyone has an opinion so make you own and check it out.

Seven bucks for a glass of beer at happy hour? Ridiculous! Would be nice if Patrick, the bar tender, had said that. Instead says beers are marked for happy hour. Might as well have one while waiting for take-out order. Also would be nice if they take phone calls. Tried twice. recording says they are not accessible.
Too bad. Had been going there for 14 years, since a previous owner was there at the Philin' Station. So disappointing.

Best wings and burgers in town. Steaks, tenderloin sandwich are awesome also. A great place to listen to music on the back porch/patio. My wife and eat here several times a month, our favorite place to eat in the area!

Do not eat here. I am sorry to say. If you enjoy frozen food from a box heated up then go ahead and give it a try.
As the owner you should really reflect and wonder if you are doing the right thing..

My husband is recovering from a debilitating stroke that left him wheelchair bound. We found out the hard way that “wheelchair accessible “ isn’t always true. It is at Spike’s. All the rows of tables have enough room to maneuver around in a wheelchair.
The toss salad was crisp and try cold. All our other food was good as well.

My husband and I have always liked Spikes---until our last visit to Tennessee! We had been driving (mostly in rain) and arrived hungry and tired. We decided at 7:00 PM to get a quick burger at Spike's and since their sign posted hours of operation until 8:00 PM, we pulled in. We were met by a (teenage) hostess with a smile and asked how many? We replied just the two of us. Then, we were told that they weren't seating anymore people! REALLY? They still had an HOUR left of operation and weren't PACKED! If they intend to stop serving at 7:00 PM, then their hours should state that! We were disappointed, hungry, and now "pissed off"! We won't be going back there any time soon (never)! BUT....the GOOD thing is that we found an AWESOME Mexican restaurant, CANCUN, just up the road! They welcomed us happily and served a DELICIOUS meal!!! Rant over!
