About Duke's Bar & Grill

Duke’s is on Iowa Avenue near the UC Riverside campus and describes itself as a large, family-owned bar and restaurant. The website lists more than 35 televisions and names NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, FIFA, UFC and boxing; that breadth suits guests who want to follow different sports around the same room. The business also advertises two full bars and two covered, air-conditioned patios, and it welcomes large groups and private events.

The menu runs from breakfast and Sunday brunch through lunch and dinner, with burgers, pizza, wings, starters and entrées. Weekly promotions advertised on the site include Taco Tuesday, Wing Wednesday and happy hour. Duke’s pairs sports with a nightlife calendar: karaoke six nights a week and DJs from Thursday through Saturday, with VIP service on selected club nights. Its official menu page says free parking is available, and the events page links the local Instagram account.

Google comments describe a lively room with televisions across different areas and repeat visits for fight nights, karaoke and games; on busy nights, impressions of service pace vary. The venue is not in Riverside’s walkable downtown core, so it is easier for visitors with a car or those already near the university. If you are following a particular matchup, ask the staff to confirm the channel and sound, and check which event has the main screen.

In brief

More than 35 TVs; NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, FIFA, UFC and boxing; two bars, covered air-conditioned patios, karaoke, DJs and venue-advertised free parking.
