Cousins Bar & Grill

They fixed it. There are different times to go when different crowds are there. Go early for less obnoxious people.

YUM! Cousin’s is where it’s AT!
I love their food. Their daily specials are wonderful, we especially love the Ribeye special on Tuesdays and the Chicken Fried Steak special on Thursdays.
The food is always fresh and delicious. They obviously put a lot of care into the preparation of their meals, and I appreciate that.
The atmosphere is also wonderful, kind of reminds me of Merlotte’s from the HBO show True Blood (all time favorite show!). They have a full bar, and great drink specials.
They don’t have the cheapest drinks in OKC, but they are definitely well priced and have a nice heavy pour! The service is always great as well.
I wish we would’ve discovered this place earlier!

Not bad priced drinks and great food! We came for happy hour and stayed for dinner. My guy had the buffalo wings, which he loved. I had the fish special, which was salmon (blackened) with wild rice and steamed veggies. All was very satisfying and well prepared. Seems like a neighborhood bar with a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. I think we will be back again soon, when in this area of north side OKC.

Nice little place. I had a Guac Burger with French fries and it was delicious. My friends had a Caesar Steak and they were pretty content. Overall, the food was great and staff was very friendly.
We didn’t drink when we went since it was pretty early, but the atmosphere is good. Older crowd (35+) so if I came back it would definitely only be fore the food.

Good food, good times, good games! But no draft beer? Hello? It’s 2015.
From pool, to darts, to shuffleboard, this is the place for good times with friends and prices to match. There are also enough tvs around that you can check into your fav sports team too.
Add this to your short list if you are bar hopping around OKC.
Remember there is a big parking lot IN BACK!!!

The greatest neighborhood bar ever. Great attitude, atmosphere and food. I have been coming here since 1997, it’s like home! Pool tables, dart board and did I mention food? The staff is awesome and us locals are always friendly!

First iff, it would be a 3 if there was no smoking. That being said I am from cali and we are lucky enough to have no smoking laws. Service Was prompt. Food was great. If this was in cali (no smoking) I would be here every day.

Awesome food, all kinds of bar games, cheap prices, comfortable atmosphere. What more can you ask for. I love Cousin’s.

The live music here is outstanding. Fun place to go. Plenty of places to sit. Great for birthday parties.

Good spot, good food! Nicest thing about this spot? Both staff and daily clients are good and friendly people. Willow, bartender is exceptionally nice.
Not a hidey-​hole… But close. :-). Chicken fried steak and nachos were both great tasting and made fresh. Glad I came!

Nice local bar, cool bartenders and good food for OKC. Definitely one of those places that you just have to check out for yourself!

Stopped in here for lunch the other day and was thoroughly impressed. I didn’t expect much from a hole in the wall bar. I got crazy and ordered salmon, and my friend ordered a bacon cheeseburger. The salmon was perfect, the hand cut fries were perfect, the bacon cheeseburger was arguably the best burger in the area and the staff was attentive. Will be back for sure.

Want me to tell you a secret?
Cousins has a incredible secret weapon!
First, when you walk into this bar & grill it’s kinda like a sports bar with darts, pool tables, & shuffle board.
On your left, It has this weird nautical looking private roped off area on a platform in the front. We have nicknamed this area the yacht club VIP ;)
It looks like it might have been a nautical themed strip club VIP left behind from the 80’s.
In short, it’s a freaky looking bar with a touch screen jute box that serves food late. And thats pretty freaking cool for OKC. Kitchen is open till midnight, bar is open till 2am.
The regulars are pretty freaky too. One night some dude came in wearin girls clothing. Yep, freaky. Another night I was there I was stopped on my way to the ladies room, blocked actually by this amazon looking woman wearing red lipstick. Stuck between the bar & the shuffle board she asked me what was the password?
I’m like what is the password?
She then says «yes, if you can not guess the password you have to spank him» pointing to the guy playing shuffle board. So I said «beer?»
She laughs really loud, the dude assumes the position so I gave him a good wack on the arse! Freaky LOL
A little while later my hubby goes to go to the bathroom & I said «good luck guessing the password» he didn’t have a clue what I was talking about.
A little while later he came back with red lipstick on his forehead in a X.
Don’t think he guessed right either LOL
But, freaky as this bar is, they have a incredible secret weapon & his name is Chef Pete.
I wonder if he knows what the password is?
Chef Pete makes some delicious scratch made food. The chicken fried chicken sandwich is so good I dream about it. It’s a giant thick juicy chicken breast fried to perfection on a buttered toasted bun. Add your choice of cheese & toppings & it’s 2. Die. For. Yummyliciousness
I have to have at least one every week :)‘
In addition to the regular menu he has lunch specials till 3pm hand written weekly on a white board in front by the Yacht club VIP. You can see it when you walk in or you can do what I do & call for the Mon-​Fri weekly specials :)
Chicken fry Thursday you can get chicken fried steak or chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes & gravy, green beans & Texas toast that is incredible for $ 6.95! The green beans have a nice vinegary flavor & bacon in them. Just lovely.
All the soups are scratch made too ;)
The salads are always super fresh, you can add a nice side salad to any entrée for $ 1.75 & that house made blue cheese dressing has giant chunks of quality blue cheese OMG its so delicious.
Then there is the mind blowing ribeye steaks for $ 9.99!!!
Secret weapon Chef Pete’s secret to his steaks is that he worked at Cattleman’s.
Yep, that Cattleman’s. The Cattleman’s across town that is one of the top 10 steak houses in the country. Yup. Steaks are freaking out of this world WOW! The same exact ribeye is $ 8.99 on ribeye Tuesday WOW to the whoa!
He also makes his artichoke & spinach dip from scratch & it’s so creamy & flavorful with chunks of artichoke served with buttered toasted French bread slices that is amazballs :)‘
The chili is really freakin good & the burgers are fantastic! His hand cut fries make the chili cheese fries OMG omygawd YUMMY :)‘
I’m still working my way thru the menu. Everything I’ve had so far has been nothing short of freakin amazing!
I’ve never had a problem with the service, the servers are always fun, they pour a freaking stiff drink & apparently don’t mind if you act a little freaky which makes the people watching that much more fun lol
Freaky place or not, Chef Pete is one freaking fine chef & I hope that Cousins holds on to their secret weapon because without the secret weapon or the password I think we are all freaking screwed ;)

Great local bar to have some drinks and games.

this place is awsome… we had the extreme nachos they were great they actually melt the cheese. nobody does this… they do at cousins… we had aprox 12 beers bought a cousins hoodie and the nachos we were outta there for 65 bucks… pretty damm cool. great prices great service… we’ll be back for sure!

With the sudden increase in interest in Oklahoma City and burgers, this place needs more attention. Although its been around for quite some time, not many people know that the food here is actually really good for being a bar. The cocktails do a fantastic job of keeping your glass full. If you don’t just enjoy conversations with your pals, you can play darts, shuffleboard, or video game golf. Their big TV is a bit outdated, but gets the job done. Parking can be kind of a pain, but as the other businesses close around it, it gets better.

This place is pretty great all around in my opinion. There is an awesome mix of people that seem to frequent Cousin’s and there are plenty of games to play; most importantly shuffleboard. The bar is definitely bigger than I always expected just from seeing the outside and they have three or four smoke-​eaters. There is plenty of room to play pool without jabbing innocent bystanders with your pool stick which is always a plus and they have a surprisingly wide variety of beer at decent prices. Sadly, some of the reviews about the service below are true and the staff can be rude, but $ 4 Franziskaner with table service and shuffleboard is a win-​win in my book, and to top it off, they have delicious food!

Don’t be mistaken. Cousin’s is what it is… a dive sports bar. I like this place and I go pretty often. They have good food, darts, pool, tvs, and fairly friendly service. It’s a smoke friendly environment so if that’s something that bothers you, maybe not the place for you. Try one of the burgers… you won’t be disappointed.

Cousins has pretty good food and cheap domestic beers and mixed drinks. It’s very spacious and rarely crowded, which makes the cigarette smoke more bearable. The clientele is a little older, and it feels like a small-​town bar. There’s usually music on the juke or sports on the TV, but not so loud that you can’t have a conversation.
I wanted to give this place more stars, but my last couple of experiences there killed it for me because of the utterly inept staff.
The waitresses at Cousins are simply rude and obnoxious. I went there for a burger a while back, and when I ordered chips as the side, the waitress said, «I’m gonna call you a pussy if you don’t order the french fries.»
So I said, «Fine, if the fries are that good, I’ll take ‘em instead.»
She brought out a basket of greasy (cooked 2 – 3 times at least), brown, cold, fries with my burger. When I told her they looked and tasted terrible, she just said, «Yeah, sometimes they’re not very good,» and walked away.
When I was there last, the bartender was clearly drunk and kept ignoring us to continue her conversation with her friends on the other side of the bar.
My buddy gave her his card to tab out, and she disappeared after setting it by the register. When we asked another bartender to ring us up (after 10 minutes) and give the card back, she snapped, «I’m not your bartender,» and then ignored us.
So we asked a waitress to please finish tabbing us out (his card’s right there next to the register with the receipt under it, after all). Guess the response? «I’m not your bartender.»
So we asked her to please go get our bartender, and she said she didn’t know where she went. At this time, I peeked through the serving window into the kitchen to see our bartender downing shots.
We spent no less than 37 minutes trying to tab out, and every single employee was rude to us.

A bar that is located next to a dry cleaner; this has to be a place full of locals! That was my first thought as we drove by only to park behind the building and enter thru the back door as if it were a speak easy. My initial assessment couldn’t have been more wrong…
Pool tables, shuffle board, electronic dart boards, Golden Tee and a touch screen jukebox were obvious indications this was more than what it appears to be from the outside. While it did have its share of «townies» I didn’t feel odd, especially since the friends I was with were regulars. A decent sized bar and plenty of seating area added to the favorable experience that I had here. While it seemed odd that only two people were working the entire floor it wasn’t that hard to order a drink. The good thing is that they were fairly stiff so taking my time on the drink I had probably would have been a better idea. As far as food is concerned, I didn’t take too long reading the menu as I simply wanted to eat something and get back to drinking. The blackened chicken sandwich was ok, but if you have some time I’m sure there is something better you can find.
Like most bars of this nature, smoking was everywhere! I personally don’t smoke, nor do I really like to be around it. That is my strongest draw back of this bar, but it could easily be dismissed the more you drink. Of course the more you drink the more likely hood you could find yourself in a situation of conflicting interests. The good thing is however we were able to leave thru the back door and avoid any physical altercations.
Cousins really is a good time, it’s not fancy it’s not dirty. If you go, take a smile and leave your ego in the car. This bar is simply just a good place to enjoy a drink and have a good time with your friends.
