Draft Pic’s Sports Bar & Grille

I actually went out of my way to download Unilocal just to review this place because the customer service was so bad. The bartenders had a weird agenda for locals so I would not recommend if you’re traveling and not from here. I was holding a drink for my girl friend who was using the restroom and I had a bartender walk up to me and rip it out of my hands saying «hell no you’re cut off». I have never been more confused in my life. Not only was I not drinking the drink, but that was already paid for by my friend. MAYBE that could be okay if we were doing something stupid but I was just standing there? Very confusing. The environment was very clique-​y so good luck getting a drink unless you know someone else there. Also they refused to sell us food as well without stating a reason? All in all I had a terrible time at this place. If you’re looking to get severely bullied then definitely come here.

This was my favorite bar up until last night. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. I was a committed customer. The bartender Anna was completely rude. Told me it was a privilege for me to be there. WRONG, I think it’s her privilege we are there or she wouldn’t have a job. Without income of customers the place wouldn’t be open. She was the worst bartender I have ever had anywhere. Sad to say bye to this place, but with this kind of service I will be finding a different place to go!

My family and I stopped in here for lunch one day because we were in town and my teenage niece doesn’t eat anything but burgers. She’s quite physically small for her age (14), but is clearly post-​puberty, so she was a little offended when the waitress automatically threw a child’s menu and crayons in front of her. The general consensus was that the food was completely non-​stellar but not horrible. I ordered a salad that turned out to be little more than a platter full of iceberg lettuce and a few sad cherry tomatoes. Others stated that their food was fairly bland and sort of haphazardly assembled. There was also this faintly unpleasant smell in the restaurant, like a backed-​up sink or old dishwater. This looked like it might be a great place to drink, but I can’t really recommend it for lunch.

Alisha is THE best bartender! Great drinks, service, and she can turn anyone’s day around!

I came here with my Mom, my husband and some friends for karaōke. We ordered drinks. My friend didn’t like her drink, but felt too bad to ask the bartender for something else. I told her that because she had only taken one sip that they would probably happily remake it for her. We asked and we were very polite but the bartender was rude and gave us attitude. The karaōke host was 30 minutes late starting, and when we asked him about it he snapped at us because he was «DJing». Hardly. Maybe the bar shouldn’t advertise a starting time if they’re going to start so late.
I’m sure there must be something good about that place, because everyone else I know seems to like it there. I just haven’t been impressed yet.

I’ve been to this bar a few times over the years and recently met some friends there for Taco Tues… they’ve done some nice changes. New booths and seating. Service was quick and friendly. I wish these guys would do live music on the weekends… very few places in Skagit Valley to watch live music.

I had the chicken strips and fries. The strips were very tasty and didn’t get hard and yucky like some do. They were still moist and crispy… If that makes sense. And great customer service from Rachel.
Had to edit this post again. There is another section called the stadium, which has three pool tables and even more TVs.

Draft pics continues to work to refine themselves.
I’m a lunchtime regular, so this is not a rating on the evening crowd.
But in the last year Lance and his team have worked very hard and done very well to update the ‘family seating’ side of the bar. The booths are nice, the décor is up to date, the walls are painted, the tv’s are bigger.
The food is consistent and great, and the staff really puts the time to get to know the town. What’s the point of a small town bar that doesn’t know your name?
All in all, I love this place and will continue to be a patron as long as they continue to be awesome.
Most food is $ 10 or less. Drinks are always reasonable. $ for food only, $$ for food and a couple drinks.

One of our local dives but it a great place. They have some special almost every night. The girls are all very sweet and go out of their way to make sure you are having a good time, and a plus great bar food

One of my favorite bars. The staff is awesome. And the drinks are stiff.

We landed here on a fluke after the tulip festival. The food and drinks were good just don’t be intimidated by the set up… it’s strange.

Stopped in on Christmas Eve. Had a most excellent server, ‘Sam.’ She was great!
The food was really fresh. Not greasy at all. We had some of the $ 1 street tacos and the jalapeño /​artichoke dip. Both were really amazing.
I had a $ 6 mini-​pitcher of a micro brew, which made the evening very enjoyable.
I suspect we’ll be stopping by again very soon.
Note: Always check Unilocal’s ‘Filtered Reviews.’ One of the businesses I reviewed has a 1-​star rating with only 1 review, but there are 5 ‘filtered’ (hidden) reviews averaging 4.8 stars!

I had hoped to get something for checking in here. No dice. The beer was cheep, the food was hot. The company was… mixed. Three stars.

Pretty chill environment and clean. Needs to work on keeping liquor stocked. ³⁄₅ stars.

Staff is friendly, really awesome food.
Taco tuesday is the best deal around, there $ 1 dollar tacos are amazing and $ 4 bucks for a mini pitcher is pretty sweet too.

Good place, good food, good people.
Was greeted when i walked in, seemed like more of a dive bar scene. I ordered The Italian supreme sandwich and it was delicious! Also tried a pint of Red chair that was pretty good no complaints. Total price 15.00 bucks.
Although, a small town this sportsbar is alittle out dated for décor. But over all is average in my book, a good average

I didn’t order a burger, play pool or watch a sports game on any of the many TVs. However, I *did* order a bloody mary and people watch, so I feel entitled to my two cents.
This is a small town, sports bar. There are a couple rooms and two bars, but they were still pretty busy. It has a sort of grimy feel– not like a true dive, but like there are more important things to do than update and clean.
Frankly, the service sucked. Most of the people working at the bar seemed to be between 21 – 23 years old and concerned with, well, I don’t know what they were concerned with but it wasn’t their customers. It took far too long for us to get service and probably five different people had to be flagged down so that we could order and get our bill. Along with our drinks and bill, we got a side of eye rolls and attitude, but not the endearing kind.
As for the Bloody Mary it was rather standard. It packed a little kick, but I was disappointed that they only tossed in an olive and a piece of lemon.

This is the kind of place that screams sports bar. There are big screen tvs that are always turned to the big game and sports memorabilia covers every wall in the place. There is a full bar and they offer an average selection of beer on tap. The place gets hopping late at night when the other bars downtown close. The food is not bad and they offer decent lunch specials during the week. Draft Pic’s is definitely the place to go in Mount Vernon for a few drinks after 10 any night of the week.
