Came in with a group of 30 during March Madness and the Game Time team couldn't have been more awesome! We had called ahead and they had tables prepared when we arrived and helped squeeze in a few more unexpected attendees (youth soccer team). The staff was attentive and patient, and our food was outstanding. Plenty of TVs to catch all the action. Don't let the nondescript location fool you...Game Time is a winner!

Food was ok. The potato skins were very good. The fish was dry in spots, however the soup of stuffed pepper was delicious. The service was good but apparently we got there during a shift change. We were sitted just before our reservation and waited over 15 minutes before we had our drink order taken. However the waitress was very attentive and keep checking on us. The atmosphere of the place was jumping because it was wildcard weekend. The ambiance is an American sports bar. Several television on the walls, so if you miss a play, it's your fault.

Food was very good for the price, service was decent but my water never got refilled. Ambiance was good sports bar atmosphere lots of tvs with games on

I am giving this local watering hole 5 stars -- not because they employ very friendly (but not bar or food knowledgeable) staff, but because the owner/manager is savvy enough and smart enough to have one of the best saxophone players - ever - perform at the pub (even if it is in the small patio area). Recently, my friend and I drove the hour to Canton from Cleveland solely to hear Matt Corey play all sorts of awesome tunes on his saxophone(s) with his cool high-tech equipment programmed in the background. In addition to his quick wit and charismatic personality, Matt shared a diverse selection of songs with the attentive and groovin' audience throughout the evening and even asked if there were any requests. A testimony to his professionalism and experience as a world-traveled, nationally-known musician, Matt even played the requested tune GOOD DAY by Nappy Roots -- a song and group he knew but NEVER played before! As we were leaving the dive later in the evening, my friend and I shook our heads in disbelief -- not only because we were, once again, awestruck at this musician's God-given gifts, but also because there were so many clueless patrons inside the dark bar crankin' their elbows and staring at their phones and the TV screens who were simply just a few feet away from a goosebump-inflicting experience. The bar/owner ought to pick and promote one evening a week to pack this place INSIDE solely for phenomenal LIVE MUSIC, or maybe just be certain to snap a great photo of Matt to capture the moment and hang it on the bar's wall so that in years to come patrons will shake their heads in disbelief that once upon a time, the electrifying artist extraordinaire - Matt Corey - played his saxophone at this pub. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-U_TFXVQ_E&t=6s

Great little known place. Wasn't very busy, but the service and food are great! $13.99 sirloin steak dinner with two sides. Got the loaded baked potato and rice pilaf. Tuesday they have two steak dinners for $21.00. Can't beat the prices and quality.

Tried Game Time for the first time, but certainly not the last time! Nice indoor and and outdoor seating options, including plenty of room at the bar. They also have probably close to 20 flat screen TVs so a great place to go to watch live sporting events. We started out with the Rueben rolls, which were basically like large egg rolls stuffed with corned beef and sauerkraut, then cut in half and served with a side of Thousand Island dressing. These didn't last long, as they were delicious. They were also fried for the perfect amount of time. For our lunch, I ordered the Italian sub, and my wife got a fried chicken sandwich. The Italian sub was very good and had plenty of salami, ham, and pepperoni on it. My wife's sandwich had two good-sized pieces of fried white chicken breast on it. When she cut it, the chicken was still moist and juicy on the inside. Both of our sandwiches came with homemade chips, which were perfectly seasoned and would be a great appetizer as well (it's on their menu as such). Game Time has an excellent selection of craft beers and mixed drinks as well, with their own unique twists, such as the Game Time Long Island Iced Tea. Watermelon liqueur added a nice green "glow" to my wife's drink, and she said it was on point. I tried a Heavy Seas TropiCannon IPA, which was excellent. My only minor complaint is the glass it was served it wasn't very cold. Beyond the good food, our server Jamie was very attentive, without being a nuisance. She was very polite and anticipated our needs (such as extra napkins) before we even had to ask. She definitely added to our great experience. Strongly recommend Game Time and we certainly plan to return!

Husband and I have wanted to try the good here but with me not feeling too well, I didn't want to go out and ruin our meal. We decided to order two burgers and two orders of onion rings; (My favorite). I cut my burger in half and it was a perfect medium; juicy, smelled and tasted delicious. When it came to my onion rings I was in heaven! Nice and crispy with just a light breading. My husband had nothing but praise for the food and the whole experience as well. He had called in our order for us because with me being hard of hearing it's easier. The girl on the phone said it would be about 25-30 minutes which it was. It definitely gets the 5 stars and hopefully we'll get to go inside next time.
