Reviews & Ratings for Champps Americana

Sports restaurant-bar draws fans who love the food as much as the game.

In Short
Using their original burgers-and-beer joint in St. Paul, Minn., as a base modl, this sports-themed chain is now a popular hangout for all ages nationwide. The memorabilia-loaded space is crowded with families and friends chatting over chili cheeseburgers, bourbon-glazed pork chops and large orders of soups and salads. On major game nights, the shiny wooden bar area is packed with small groups eyeing the monitors above while cheering or grumbling into their pints and fries.

Good food, loud atmosphere.

I really enjoyed this sports bar. The waiter was very helpful with our little one. A little loud in there for us with a baby but it worked. The food was tasty, the beer was good. Unfortunetly, the waiter didn't know too much about how the food was cooked or prepared, but otherwise it was a very good experience. We'll be back.

• Pros: food was good.
• Cons: Waiter knowledge.

Not so great

by chris1961 at Citysearch

About average...nothing to write home about. Rather crowded inside and noisy. Has 3 big screen TVs, and a large bar, but the food is mdei-ocre, and very over priced. On my last lunch visit, I had a very bland buffalo chicken sandwich, with fries and a drink for over 11 bucks! A little pricey for a sandwich lunch without toated buns or lettuce and tomato.

• Cons: crowded, noisy, over priced

KEEP THE PINEAPPLE SALAD DRESSING!

by educ8or6 at Citysearch

CHAMPPS HAS ALWAYS BEEN A FAVORITE OF MINE. tHEY USED TO HAVE A REALLY TASTY PINEAPPLE -BASED SALAD DRESSING (LOW FAT TOO) THAT WAS THE BEST I HAVE EVER TASTED! IT IS NO LONGER ON THE MENUE, BUT THEY HAVE IT IF YOU ASK FOR IT. PLEASE ASK FOR IT AND HOPEFULLY THEY WILL CONSIDER KEEPING IT AS A REGULAR ITEM!

• Pros: PINEAPPLE DRESSING!

Great sandwiches

by dakdog at Citysearch

Some of the best sandwiches in the city...definitley the largest! Great portions...maybe too big. They pile their sandwiches high and the breads are always good. Great salads too.

WOW, This Place is Great!

I recently moved to Columbus and just happened to stop at Champps(Lennox) on Thursday night. Number one the food was awesome. I got the Cajun Pork Chops, and could barely finish them there was so much food. Then I watched some kids play some game shows in the bar. They gave away a new mountain bike. There was also a radio DJ there who gave away concert tickets. They even had a disco ball. My waitress said they do that every week.

Somebody at that company sure knows what they're doing. I would highly reccomend this resturuant(and the French Onion Soup).

• Pros: Great Atmosphere, Huge Portions, Great Desserts
• Cons: Parking, Lack of Local Beers
