We went around 5pm on a Friday night. Prime time and busy! Don't be fooled by the exterior. You might be a little scared off, but once inside it's lively. They'll take care of you. You'll be alright. We heard about their steak tips and had to try it out. It came with a side salad and choice of fries, onion rings, or rice pilaf. We (two adults, toddler) put in two orders ($27 each) of steak tips (one with rice pilaf and the other with onion rings) and we had plenty leftover. Onion rings were crispy, lightly battered. Toddler picked off our plates. You can probably share one plate among two adults, but you'll be wanting to take some leftover home! The BEST steak tips I have had...like I was dumbfounded for a hot second after the first bite. So delicious. Very tender, tasty marinade, and cooked to perfection. It was a bit of a wait to get seated, but definitely worth it. Line moved though. They have sit down booths, high top tables, and seating at the bar. Once seated, service was excellent - food came out fast and fresh! Multiple people checking in on us despite it being packed. They got a system down, like a well oiled machine. We ate quick - a long line was forming to the outside and we wanted others to enjoy the food and warmth from the cold. Will definitely be back!

I gotta say these steak tips were some of the most tender I have ever eaten. They easily gave over a lb of steak tips. Marinade was amazing and just great overall value.

The steak tips are to die for... a hidden gem... probably because the outside looks like you may not want to be inside, but trust me it's worth it.

Longtime bucket list, first time visit for their much-talked-about steak tips, and first visit was very impressive. Steak tips: Humongous portion, choice of side, and salad included, making it a great value even at $27 and change. Nice char, strong grill flavor, cooked to medium rare as asked, very tender, juicy, and just enough sauce to complement and not overwhelm. Flavorful mix of what seemed like Italian, teriyaki and barbecue to produce a whole greater than (and different from) the sum of its parts. Only downside: a few of the bites had gristle, but just a few. Overall: outstanding. Lived up to the hype. Onion rings: Clam shack version, very thin, very crisp batter. None of that puffy stuff. So right up my alley. Buffalo wings: Tried in an appetizer combo where you can pick any two from the menu. Just enough crispness, but exceptional juiciness and tenderness. Very piquant sauce that brought sourness along with heat. Pork shanks: On the bone, guessing cooked some other way first and then deep fried, served with a small dollop of barbecue sauce on top and a small pool below. Surfaces didn't look promising, but juiciness underneath came through. Moist and tasty throughout, with crispness on top. Not just dependent upon sauce. Service: It's basically a bar, but very very pleasantly surprised by the superb service from my main server Jackie and two others who also tag teamed efficiently. Friendly, enthusiastic ambassadors who exuded what hospitality is all about. All this and parking too. Great steak tips and so much more.

Steak Tips, Wings, Salads We love Champions. It's a local pub with simple food, but the steak tips and turkey tips are excellent. The steak fries are worth every calorie, too. Champions is on our and most people's top 10 list of north shore steak tip institutions. The rice and salad are very simple too, but well worth it. Despite other reviews we have always had good service, but this is a dive pub, so set your expectations accordingly. Tip: Get a burger, the char broiler in the back of the bar is pretty special. Champions is not our favorite steak tip joint, but it is one of the better spots with the bar atmosphere and nice family ran atmosphere. Thanks

Food is amazing! Best steak tips around. My kids say that they have the best burgers too! A true hidden gem

Been hearing about the tips, and well, they are less than two miles from home so we decided to try them yesterday. It's kind of dark and divey, sports bar look. Bar is simple, with about ten stools. A couple of tables, and they even have 8 top tables for groups. I think this would be an excellent place to watch the Patriots! Food: Hubs, of course, got the steak tips, med rare. We saw the chef cooking everything, and he was masterful at juggling it all. The tips were dark, juicy, tender, so frickin tender! As well as cooked perfectly. The fries were frozen, but who cares when you get that much meat? Oh, and hubs said the juices were also perfect for the fries. I opted for a basket of fried shrimp; pretty good! Nice batter! And a Greek salad. The feta cheese was the only thing that made it Greek; otherwise, it was a green salad. The dressing was good. Prices were really fair for what we got, portion size, and tastiness!
