Maloney's Sports Bar & Grill

Maloney’s Sports Bar & Grill is a locally owned neighborhood sports bar in old Overland Park that has operated since 2003, anchoring the corner of 79th and Metcalf with over 50 HDTVs, a rooftop deck, and a reputation as one of the area’s go-to game-day destinations.¹

Description

Maloney’s Sports Bar & Grill occupies a prominent corner in the commercial strip of old Overland Park and has served as a neighborhood game-watching hub since it opened in 2003.¹ The bar runs more than 50 high-definition televisions throughout the venue, with major sports packages including NFL Sunday Ticket and MLB Network, making it a reliable draw on game days across football, baseball, and college sports.²

The physical footprint has expanded meaningfully over the years. In October 2014, Maloney’s opened a Rooftop Bar and Deck — a full bar on the upper level with an outdoor deck and enclosed garage-door sections that allow the space to operate open-air in good weather or climate-controlled on cold and rainy days.¹ A covered and heated downstairs patio adds a third distinct seating zone. The result is a venue with real capacity for large groups and a flexibility that has helped it sustain business across seasons.

The bar runs daily food and drink specials from open to close and offers half-price appetizers on weekday afternoons, positioning it as a destination for the after-work crowd as well as game-day patrons.¹ Hours run from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. seven days a week.²

Founding narrative

Over two decades, the bar expanded its physical space multiple times, adding the covered downstairs patio and the signature Rooftop Bar and Deck in 2014.¹
