Flora-Bama Ole River Grill is scoring big this summer here on the line! We’re excited to share that our waterfront hot spot has been nominated for USA Today's 10 Best List for Best Sports Bar. It’s an honor to be recognized, and we couldn’t have made the list without the support of our loyal supporters who cheer just as loud for our food, drinks, and views as they do their favorite teams. 


If you’ve ever watched a game here, you know there’s nothing quite like it. With massive TVs, ice-cold draft beer, and a breeze from the Gulf of American rolling in, game day feels like vacation. Add in a menu stacked with game day favorites, think perfectly seasoned wings, chips & salsa, burgers, all-American nachos, and you’ve got the ultimate Gulf Coast sports bar experience. 


But now, we need your help to bring this title home. Voting is open for a few more weeks until Monday, August 18 at noon ET. But the best part is, you can vote once a day, and it only takes one click! There’s no forms or fuss, just one click and you’re done. 


Every vote counts and we hope to have yours. Head to USA Today's 10 Best List for Best Sports Bar and vote daily HERE for Flora-Bama Ole River Grill to win top pick of the best sports bar in the nation. Let’s show America what a true beachside gameday looks like!
