Courtside Bar and Grill

Great place great food Great NEW OWNER'S PLEASE SUPPORT THEM...

Stopped in for lunch & drinks yesterday after Christmas shopping (an annual tradition of ours). Our waitress was very nice and the food was phenomenal. You can’t beat the price for the quality and quantity of the food! Highly recommend the beer cheese burger! Glad to have this place back open. We will definitely be back soon!

I absolutely loved the food! I ordered the Courtside Grilled Chicken Sandwich with fries and my wife ordered the cauliflower bites! Great cook, great flavor. Server was very friendly and attentive. Atmosphere was great! Next time I will be ordering the mamba wings! I ordered a side sauce of it for my fries and it is soooo good!

I didn’t get my food yet, but it’s straight banging. Atmosphere, I would rate higher than 5 if I could. Overall, a phenomenal place if your looking for more than just food.

Courtside Bar & Grill absolutely delivers the BEST burgers in Binghamton! 🍔 I tried their signature Courtside Burger, and it was a game-changer—juicy, perfectly cooked patty, packed with flavor, and that special sauce on a toasted brioche bun was pure perfection. The atmosphere is lively, with a fun sports vibe and great service that makes you feel right at home. If you’re a burger lover, this place is a must-visit. Already looking forward to my next trip!

The best atmosphere and the best staff! Will absolutely be back. Thank you courtside for a great post win celebration!!!!

We watched NBA playoff game (Knicks vs Pacers) here the other night after calling and arranging for a table near TV and asking for the game audio to be on. We were very well accommodated with both requests, and I greatly that. Our drinks were fine and the food, while still sports bar food, was far better than would typically be expected. Our server, Vickie (?) was terrific, earnest interested in how we were doing, taking care of our TV requests, and really well-managing a crowd of boomers from NYC. All in all, a very good evening (except for the Knicks choking to lose the game).

Never eaten there in person but I’ve ordered delivery through apps a few times. Food is delicious. Portions are decent. Maybe a tiny bit of extra mushrooms on the mushroom Swiss burger would be cool though. The only complaint I really have is slight inconsistency in receiving what’s ordered. Overall correct each time just small little things that are wrong. Last time one of my side sauces was missing. Not really a big deal. This time I was supposed to get truffle parm fries but recieved regular fries. Also not really a big deal. In house it wouldn’t be a problem to fix, quick and easy but on delivery not so much. I’ll definitely continue to order and I’d definitely recommend this place to other people but maybe try to work on making sure they’re 100% right, especially if it’s takeout/delivery. Overall 4.75 stars, if you could do portions of stars lol.

I ordered the fig and pig salad, was fantastic for a low fodmap option for GI sensitive people, just dont get the chicken with it and pick out the figs or ask for them not to be added. I got the fries too, they were amazing especially dipped in the balsamic glaze from the fig and pig salad! The drinks are a little strong but if you like that this is the place for you!

So my best friend and I came to Courtside for a couple of day drinks for the holiday and let me tell you Lily was a phenomenal bartender! Her bartending skills are outstanding and her customer service skills are out of this world I will definitely coming back again to have her as my bartender!

Wonderful experience the past 3-4 times I've went usually for lunch but later than regular lunch time around 1200 it was always good.

Great little bar and grill. Friendly staff and portions are large. Really excellent smash burgers. Had the game on many tvs. Recommend for a bite to eat and a beer!

Great atmosphere bartenders need to be a bit more personable in my opinion. Thursday night $7 wing and $3 beer special is fantastic probably the best in town. Looking forward to my next visit. Tuesday's $5 burgers are absolutely fantastic.

Place was packed before the hockey game but managed to get a table.. food was out super quick.. basic bar fare and very good.

A mediocre dining experience with decent pretzel bites and good music. We visited Courtside Bar and Grill on a weekend evening between 8 and 11pm. The establishment was busy. Courtside is a newer establishment in downtown Binghamton, and as the name suggests Courtside focuses heavily on playing basketball on their many televisions set up throughout the bar. While most downtown establishments are focused more toward the younger, college crowd, the choice of music struck me as interesting as Courtside was playing a lot of late 90's/early 2000's alternative, which is right up my alley. We decided to check this new eatery out while we were downtown for another event and even though the establishment was busy we were immediately greeted and shown a seat. There is nothing bad to report on Service her, as it continued to be very quick throughout our visit and we waited very little time between ordering, receiving our appetizer, and receiving our main course. For an appetizer we ordered pretzel bites with cheese, and for the main course we ordered a PB&J burger and a buffalo chicken melt. While the pretzel bites were good, things got a bit sub-par at the main course. The buffalo chicken melt was highly disappointing as there were more blue cheese crumbles in my sandwich than there was chicken and it greatly overpowered the rest of the flavors in the sandwich, even the buffalo itself. The fries were nothing special and were not seasoned when they hit the table, although they did come out hot and crispy. The PB&J burger was fine, but a bit overcooked and incredibly sticky, although sticky should be expected with this burger and isn't in itself a reason for complaint. Overall our visit to Courtside wasn't bad, but it wasn't really memorable. I could see us eating here again if we find ourselves downtown for another event, but it will likely find a spot a little lower down in our rotation with hopes of a better experience next time.

Nice little sports bar. Tap beer was warm 😒. Bar staff was pleasant. Decent food specials that looked good.

We ordered buffalo garlic parm wings and they were so dry they had no flavor. No sauce on them at all. wings are low quality before lack of sauce.

The male Bartender gave attitude and was rude by just brushing me off with a yup once I told him I was there for a DoorDash and then I proceeded to stand and wait until I walked up to the kitchen window to check and see if a bagged order was mine then a girl proceeded to walk up with attitude and say who are you here for and push her way past me. Personally I hate the food here and the customer service would not recommend.
