This popular Richardson gastropub boasts a killer craft beer list, a pooch-friendly patio, and enough flat screens that you won't miss a minute of action regardless of where you are sitting. Beyond non-stop televised sports, Café Gecko also offers free live music every Wednesday night, weekday happy hours, and half-price appetizers from 11 p.m.-2 a.m., Sunday through Wednesday. And that's before you even get to the food, which includes everything from blackened chicken nachos to hand-tossed pizzas, shrimp po'boys and enchiladas. Pro tip: This place fills up on game days, so arrive early to get a seat.
