The Take

The Water Hole Sports Bar earns its keep as a no-frills neighborhood dive where cheap drinks and classic games beat the usual bar food every time.

Locals buy the nostalgia of a 30-year Valrico staple to signal they belong to the sports crowd, not the health crowd.

The Verdict

Hit the bar for the games and drinks, then keep the order tight to avoid the fryer basket trap.

Order the wings or a burger and request no fries or side salad if available.
