About us
Local restaurateur and owner of the Family Pancake House, Robert C. Mathwig opened the Arena Sports Bar & Grille in 2011 as a fun, interactive venue where people can enjoy quality food and drinks, games, pulltabs, music and more while watching their favorite sporting events.
Our menu includes tasty appetizers, crisp salads, hand-formed burgers, juicy steaks, fresh seafood, plus handcrafted cocktails, wine and 24 different beers on tap, many of which are local microbrews.
We are the largest sports bar in Kitsap County with space for nearly 300 guests, 15 HD TVs and a JUMBO HD projector screen, DJ stand, dance floor, and stage for live music. Our outdoor patio has heated seating and our fenced outdoor area boasts covered picnic tables, horseshoes, cornhole, ladder golf and more!
Both the Arena and the Family Pancake House are committed to community involvement, donating our time and experience as coaches, volunteers, and mentors. We proudly sponsor youth sports teams, camps, 4-H, Boys and Girls Club, YMCA, and the annual cowboy breakfast at the Kitsap County Fair & Rodeo.
