Rack & Roll
About This Spot
Stepping into Rack & Roll feels like sliding into a comfortable rhythm where familiar faces and new friends mingle over frosty mugs and lively melodies. Nestled on Erie’s west side, this sports bar gently hums with the quiet confidence of a place that’s seen plenty of stories unfold—whether at the dartboard, the karaoke stage, or simply across the bar. It's a spot where the pace is easygoing but never dull, inviting you to settle in for a while and let the night take shape naturally.
The atmosphere is an unforced blend of energy and warmth. There's a reassuring buzz of friendly chatter, punctuated by occasional bursts of laughter or a spirited song from the regulars brave enough to take the mic. It’s a place where everyone from longtime locals to visitors passing through find a corner to call their own, sharing moments that feel genuine and grounded rather than staged or fleeting.
Behind the bar, the team moves with an ease that suggests both skill and kindness. Their attentiveness strikes the perfect balance between professional and personable, making sure that regardless of whether you’re nursing a crisp Bud Light or biting into the nearly legendary breakfast burger, you’re part of the rhythm of the room. The menu supports the vibe rather than overwhelming it—comfort food that pairs well with a game on TV, a round of darts, or a bit of weekend karaoke bravado.
There’s a thoughtful care woven throughout the space, from the well-ventilated interior to a porch that offers a welcome pause for those who wish to step outside. Through the ebb and flow of weekend crowds or quieter weekday evenings, Rack & Roll never feels like just another bar—it feels like a chapter in the everyday lives of many, a place to unwind, connect, and make stories worth sharing.

A great place with great service! I didn't have the food but I heard "it's worth the money no problem" that was from a regular that was a food guy so I gave it a 3 on his word alone. Bar keep something with B was on task ... Tall guy long hair ... The young lady working the door was nice and welcoming.... P.S. some of the people that sing are amazing. The tall mugs are super frosty!

We were looking for a place to hang, laugh, and unwind... This was a great choice. Friendly bartenders, great karaoke DJ, and lots of gutsy singers. I strongly recommend this bar for a great time

This place is a true gem. Was in town for work, and had four nights to go out to eat and get some drinks. Each night I came to Rack and Roll. The bartenders at least the ones I met, (Mike, Megan, Pearl, and Maddie) were super nice and great at their job. The atmosphere is wonderful with a true mix of people from all walks of life coming in for a drink, to sing a song, grab a bite, play some darts, or just have a great conversation. I will definitely be back to this establishment every time I have the chance, and highly suggest all of you to do the same. Karaoke every night from 930 on, and Kitchen is open til 11 I think. You're missing out if you don't go here!

Good people, good food, and sometimes people have the audacity to think they can do karaoke, which makes watching people sing 10X more entertaining. Bot smokey inside at all with great ventilation. To make up for no more smoking in the building, they built a porch for smokers to smoke it to make up for it.

Very crowded on dart league nights. Didn't eat any food there, so I'm not going to rate it. Bathrooms downstairs are very small. Should only be for 1 person at a time. Staff were amazing.

Rack & Roll is one of my favorite places to go! Very affordable drinks and food on top of free karaoke!! It’s such a fun atmosphere to be in
