The Sideline Sports Bar

Burgers, Pizza, Craft Beer & 17 Big Screens in the Heart of Downtown Owosso, Michigan

About The Sideline Sports Bar

Tucked into the heart of downtown Owosso at 219 South Washington Street, The Sideline Sports Bar has quickly become one of Shiawassee County's favorite spots to eat, drink, and cheer on the home team. This family-friendly American pub pairs a diverse from-scratch menu with a lively sports-bar atmosphere — and serves visitors and locals alike with the kind of attentive, friendly service that keeps people coming back.

Whether you're stopping in after a game at the Capital Sports Field House next door, taking the family to the Polar Express train at the Steam Railroading Institute, exploring Curwood Castle, or spending the day at the Owosso Farmer's Market, The Sideline is a short walk or quick drive away. It's the perfect place to refuel and recharge in mid-Michigan.
