I'm giving 5 stars before the food arrives because my server is the most. Kerrie thank you I felt so welcomed! Now I have my food and I enjoyed the crab cake platter. Yummy 😋
Big Bats Cafe isn't quite a cafe, but more of an experience. Come for the great patio, good drinks and decent food. Come back for the friendly service and good prices.
Pro Tip: Skip the sandwiches and go straight for the fantastic wings.
My husband and I always enjoy heading over to Bats for lunch! I usually get the Smokehouse Burger with Sweet Potato Fries (yummm!) and his favorite is the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. The Crab Dip & Soft Pretzel is an absolute MUST for an appetizer! We love the friendly, laid-back atmosphere too. 😊
My family and I regularly stop at Big Bats when we’re coming to and from the beach. The food is always good, service is great, and the restaurant itself is festively adorned with baseball memorabilia. They offer indoor and outdoor table and bar seating. We’ve been here many times and have never had a bad time. Highly recommend!
So driving by it, you'd think it's just another sports bar. Though this was some of the best casual-style food I've had in awhile. Their chicken was breaded just perfectly and fried so it was light and crispy. The sweet-potatoes were amazing. My wife said her sandwich was great but would have been perfect with tomato and lettuce. Going to be adding it to our short list of must-haves on the island.
I had to go order today . I got the crab cake on pub roll 😋. In a word WOW , This was very good crab cake at NOT very good crab cake price . Was 18 with a ton on crinkle fries and was every bit as good as crab cakes I have had that where 25 to 35 dollars each with one side . Soo impressed I needed to right a review
Stopped here on our way across the Bay Bridge. What a great find! I wasn’t expecting much at a sports bar but my shrimp fajita came in 3 plates with all the fixins. Very good. They even had key lime pie for under $5. We’ll be back!
Perfect place to stop after a day at the beach! Brought my dog so we walked in through the outdoor area. We all had a great time. Kids had fun playing with other kids. Food came out fast. They got kids spaghetti and ate it up. I got the breakfast sandwich, and it was so huge I shared it with my dog.
Awesome place with great comfort food and beers on tap. The peanutbutter-pretzel-burger is a handfull, but was absolutely worth it.
Personal was cool and very welcoming to us foreigners.
I have been going to Big Bats for over 12 years now, but my last experience I felt the need to leave a review. The service was excellent, the food was excellent, and on top of that, its a sports bar that is also a baseball museum on many levels.
Steve (Owner) has put a lot of love and care into making this place a hidden gem that hides in plain site. You can spend hours looking at all the sports memorabilia in there. They have the best Gyros around!
Do yourself a favor, if you haven't been to Big Bats yet, I highly suggest you do!
Food and service were great but we were dining inside and were still fighting off flies the whole time.
Son in law (who has been here several times) thought it would be a good place after the boat show as we headed home.
Only problem was that there was so much really good food! Our server was helpful without hovering, and we all agreed it was a great stop.
Took my dog here today after the dog beach and they were extremely accommodating! The food was delicious and came out quickly and accurately. They were super nice, brought a bowl of water out for her, and checked on us a bunch!!! Very lovely staff.
Gyros, chips and onion rings were great. Good service and prices. Dining room is a little too dark for my wife's taste(no windows)
If you're a sports fan, this is one reason to visit Big Bats. Plenty of TVs showing a plethora of sporting events. There is memorabilia throughout the entire venue. There's a vast selection of food of the "roadhouse variety" and its darn good too. If you like good food and a fun atmosphere, this place is for you!
Food was great we had lunch thier great service wonderful atmosphere
No hotcakes. The French Toast was excellent. Friendly service.
Food is amazing. Wings are great. They serve Guiness!!! And atmosphere is on point. They have an arcade, bar, restaurant and outdoor area.

We came down to the bay for a day trip and needed to pick up lunch somewhere that was dog friendly. We ended up just getting our food to go because of how hot it was outside, but I did read they allow dogs on their patio! Our food was amazing! I had a bacon cheeseburger and my husband got the hot dog with chili. My burger (on the outside), bun and bacon all had a nice crisp to them. It offset the chewiness of the burger and bread and bacon perfectly. And loved the fries. Perfect amount of seasoning. My husband said he enjoyed the crispness of his bun on his hot dog as well and thoroughly enjoyed his hot dog with chili. If and when we come back to this area, we will definitely be stopping back here for food!
