Stanley's Sports Bar
About This Spot
Stepping into Stanley's Sports Bar immediately wraps you in a familiar, easygoing vibe that feels both welcoming and unpretentious. Situated just a stone’s throw from the local ice rinks and SJSU games, this spot hums with quiet energy—where fans, friends, and families gather to share genuine moments without the frills or fuss. The atmosphere strikes a steady balance between casual comfort and the quiet buzz of game-day excitement, inviting you to settle in at one of the many seats without feeling crammed or rushed.
The hum of multiple screens tuned to the latest hockey or college sports creates a shared experience that’s lively without overwhelming the senses. Large windows look out to the adjacent rinks, offering a unique vantage point for those who’ve just laced up their skates or want to catch the action off the ice. This thoughtful integration of sport, food, and community invites you to linger, relax, and maybe even catch up with old friends—or make some new ones—as play unfolds on and off screen.
Stanley’s menu complements this atmosphere with familiar, comforting fare that’s perfect for refueling after activity or simply enjoying with a cold brew in hand. Think hearty bites like crispy chicken tenders and wings, paired effortlessly with a well-chosen selection of beers that include both local brews and nostalgic favorites. The kitchen's approach is straightforward, focused on satisfying cravings rather than chasing culinary trends, which makes each meal feel rooted in warmth and honest flavor.
Here, the pace is unhurried, allowing conversations to flow naturally alongside the ebb and flow of the games. Whether you’re winding down after a skate or gearing up for a night out with friends, Stanley’s feels like a reliable neighborhood anchor—one where the service is friendly and familiar, the portions hearty, and the atmosphere just right for relaxing into the moment.

Truly enjoyed Stanley's! The burnt ends (brisket) appetizer was excellent. Small assortment of craft beers and a great place to take in a Sharks game on the plentiful TVs. Lots of seating and didn't feel crowded. Great venue for after skating or watching a local league play.

Ryan and Naomi are the best. Plus we got souvenir cups for free and our food came in less than 2 minutes And there was no tax

It's a great place to unwind after the exercise on ice. $28/pitcher even with Pliny the Elder was a great deal.

Sometimes Stanley's is great. Very often, not. Today is a great day. Here for my son's SJSU game. I'd like a beer please, how about a Red Trolley? YEAH BABY! An *Amber*! Boo-yah! Some people like IPAs, some people like darks, some people like fruity beers, but some people are old school like myself, and like Ambers. Yes! My son's team is losing 3-2 right now, but since Stanley's had an amber, I'm a little happier. This is new: So SJSU was losing at the 1st intermission, 3-1. I had a Red Trolley from Stanley's. ** They came back to win, 5-3, and my son got the empty netter at the end to seal it! ** So guess what I'll be doing at his future games ... The next night. The power and magic of a Stanley's Red Trolley. SJSU was up 1-0, at the end of the 1st period. I have my now usual Red Trolley. The Spartans end up winning 9-1, and my son had 2 goals and at least 1 assist. I'm telling you, something magic with that beer here.

Great way to fuel up after exercising on the rink. The food is good enough and there are hockey translation on the screens. Also there are good views on both rinks from the side windows so you can watch live game sitting here.

We been coming here for years because my granddaughters have Ice skating but this year the service change and not for the better. We had to go up front and order our drinks and food , then pick it up when ready and it’s just put on the side no contact with anyone and yet they spect a Tip? I don’t think so!! When they come to our table and take our orders I won’t mind tipping.
