This anticipated spot is located in the Merry Corners shopping center, joining several other businesses that opened in the plaza this year. It’s also directly across the street from the Publix-anchored Shops at Pike Road, making it a convenient new addition for locals running errands or seeking entertainment.

Inside, the modern venue features a sleek, spacious design built for seamless dining, drinking and indoor golfing.

While the menu for this location was not immediately available, it’s expected to have the familiar sports bar fanfare, including wings, burgers, cold craft beverages and classic game-day eats. Combined with high-tech golf bays, it promises to be a go-to gathering place for golfers, sports fans and families alike.
