About

Same neighborhood spot, evolved.

Locally owned. Same crew, same roots — now a full Carlsbad sports bar and grill.

Notorious Sports Bar & Grill is a locally owned sports bar and grill in Carlsbad, CA built for people who love great food, ice-cold beer, well-crafted cocktails, and watching every game. Originally known as Notorious Burgers, we kept the same crew and local roots while evolving into a full Carlsbad neighborhood sports bar with more menu variety, a full bar, and plenty of TVs throughout the patio and bar.

Our story

Good food, cold beer, cocktails, and every game on.

Notorious Sports Bar & Grill is a locally owned neighborhood sports bar in Carlsbad, built on community, familiarity, and good food. Originally known as Notorious Burgers, the restaurant has been reimagined into a full Carlsbad sports bar and grill, while keeping the same ownership, crew, and local roots.

Today, we serve stacked burgers, wings, and comfort-driven favorites, alongside a strong selection of beer and well-crafted cocktails. With plenty of TVs throughout the bar and patio, Notorious is a place to watch the game, share a drink, and spend time with neighbors.

This is the same local spot Carlsbad has always known, just evolved. A neighborhood bar where regulars return, friendships form, and the community comes together every day.
