Sports & Social is a carefully curated dining, entertainment, sports viewing, and social concept. The space will feature three bars, live music and entertainment throughout the week, nostalgic arcade games, and an unrivaled sports-watch atmosphere – the next best game watching experience outside of a stadium or arena.
