Yelp.com Review - by Brad G.

3.0 of 5 stars. Sparks is a rather typical sports bar/grill combo, located just off Hwy 55 in Apex. I'd driven past it quite a few times and decided to stop in one night on a whim. Walking in the door, I immediately...

Excellent Wings!!

My husband is from Buffalo, and we've finally found a wing place in town we both love! The classic buffalo sauce was just a tinge spicy, perfect for someone like me who doesn't like spicy food. The server was...

Not for eating, fair for drinking

As a family we've been to Sparks 4-5 times. It was much better a year or so ago before the menu (or management?) changed. Food is not really that good now, but the staple bar food is ok. For a drinking place,...

Terrible service and food!

We walked in, there was hardly anyone there, should have been a warning....anyway, it took the ditzy blonde what seemed like forever to greet us and take our order. We got our food pretty fast, but then again,...

Don't waste your time...

We were a little hesitant when we walked into this smokey, empty bar...especially when we saw the "seat yourself" sign, but we wanted to give the place a chance. We walked into the dining room where a large...

YIKES!!!

When a restaurant has a sign saying SEAT YOURSERLF they should periodically see if customers have actually sat down. I toughed it out for 10 minutes before sending my son to find the wait staff. Wait we did!...

Embarrassment to the City of Apex

I wish I would have read the reviews before going to this trashy bar. I took my father, visiting from out of town, there to watch the NFL playoffs and was so embarrassed for him to see and hear the filthy,...

Avoid - a thug bar

At first I thought this bar was a decent place to sit and watch a ballgame with a sandwich and a beer. But there is a constant parade of rude and argumentative customers and fights/confrontations that seem to...

I actually thought the owner was going to get in a physical fight with a customer

I think they should change their name from Sparks to The Good Ol Boys Club. While having dinner with my two daughters, I watched the owner of Sparks (who was drinking alcohol at the bar) and a customer at the...

I have been a happy entertainment book user for over two years now. This is the first time a restaurant or store has ever refused my entertainment book coupon. I will never go to Sparks to eat and would never...

Best Wings in town at a great price! by Jeff F. at InsiderPages

Sparks is a great place to drop in for a quick bite most anytime, or, if you're like me, on Tuesdays, for 25 cent wing day. Multiple different flavors available from their hottest (Knock Your Block Off) to...

I was kind of turned off to Sparks for awhile not because of the food but because of the service. There is a new owner now and I think things are much better. This is a great place to just sit and eat or go...
