Sporting News Grill is a sports bar with bite

A sports bar? Absolutely. Inside Holiday Inn Select off College Drive? Yep. With more than 30 HD flat screens and a staff who will cater to your menu choices and your television programming picks, Sporting News Grill is another new option to put in your NFL, NBA and LSU game day rotation. The grill offers a surprisingly diverse menu for a hotel restaurant, and all in a modern-décor setting that would make even the most grizzled editor of the sports page blush. This could easily have been another boring place for business travelers and corporate meetings, but instead the setting is lively and the bar fully stocked. The menu includes sandwiches, steaks and seafood, plus dishes you’d never expect in a sports bar like a classic French Nicoise Salad, Jack Daniel’s Glazed Salmon and 12-inch pizza pies big enough to fill the tank of even the biggest of athlete and fans.
