Jerzy's Sports Pub

Nestled in the heart of Margate, FL, Jerzy’s Sports Pub stands out as a beloved local bar that perfectly captures the spirit of a true dive bar with a welcoming twist. Located at 6500 W Atlantic Blvd, this spot is a go-to hangout for those seeking a warm, close-knit atmosphere where everyone quickly feels like family.

Walking through the doors of Jerzy’s, you’re immediately greeted with friendly smiles and a sense of camaraderie—something customer Kelly Robinson highlights as a major reason she keeps coming back. It’s not just a bar; it’s a community where familiar faces become like friends and the bartenders, especially the ever-gracious Maryellen, make you feel genuinely valued. This isn’t a place that tries to be anything it’s not—it’s a down-to-earth sanctuary for those who appreciate authenticity over pretense.

The recent remodel gives Jerzy’s a fresh feel without losing its classic dive bar soul. As Paul Hardy notes, the updated space is cool and inviting, and the management’s stance on indoor smoking has sparked some debate, but loyal patrons embrace the freedom to enjoy their time here without compromise. Nicholas’s excitement about the “OG Jerzy’s” being back — open until 4 a.m. daily with smoking allowed inside — perfectly sums up the vibe for many: a no-frills, genuine sports pub experience that stays true to its roots.

While Jerzy’s isn’t a restaurant per se, it does offer simple food options like pizza, which some may see as less of a focus, as Rachel Depasquale wryly mentions giving a “1 star” for the food. But the heart of this pub lies not in gourmet dining but in its exceptional service, approachable drink prices, and the overall relaxed environment. Ashley White’s review beautifully captures the essence of being here—chill, personable, and all about taking care of patrons’ needs. With beers at $2.50 a glass and shots at $8, it’s an inviting place to unwind after a long day or keep the good times rolling late into the night.

Jerzy’s Sports Pub isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel; it proudly embraces what it is: a timeless dive bar with a committed base of regulars who cherish the straightforward fun and friendliness it offers. Whether you’re looking for a spot to catch the big game, enjoy late-night drinks, or find your second home in Margate, Jerzy’s delivers an atmosphere that feels honest, welcoming, and perfectly suited for those who value heart and soul over flash.
