Popular Liverpool sports bar to take over pub spot at suburban golf club

Potter’s Pub, the public sports bar / restaurant at the Radisson Greens golf course, welcomed a crowd of football fans Sunday to watch the big Buffalo Bills win over the Kansas City Chiefs.
Then it closed for good, ending a nine-year run as part of the golf course at 8055 Potter Road in Radisson.
The bar space in the clubhouse will remain closed until early 2025. Then it will become a second location for the Home Team Pub, a successful sports bar / restaurant at 7990 Oswego Road (Route 57) in Liverpool.
The Home Team Pub has built a reputation for its “expansive” menu and welcoming atmosphere, especially for sports events.
“It’ll be just the same, but in a different location,” said Joey Kalil, who opened the Home Team Pub in 2018. The Radisson Greens space is about half the size of the Liverpool location, he said, and has a big patio overlooking the course for warmer weather.
It will take until at least February to make the necessary changes to the space and get the required licensing, Kalil said.
Kalil posted the news on social media this week:
“Celebrating Six Years! Time flies when you’re having fun. We extend our gratitude to our outstanding staff and dedicated customers, whose unwavering support has fueled our success,” a Home Team Pub Facebook message said. “Since day one, we’ve prided ourselves on being a community-driven sports pub, and we’re confident in our delivery. Following the successful launch of our Road Team Pub Food Truck, we’re excited to announce Home Team Pub’s second location at Radisson Greens, opening early 2025.”
Potter’s Pub, owned by Mike Tanzella and Chris Bandera, had posted this farewell on Facebook on Sunday:
“To our friends, family and neighbors, we here at Potters Pub would like to say thank you for the past nine years. We hope the best to all who have been a part of this fun ride.”
Radisson Greens is a semi-private club, meaning it welcomes all players but also has memberships.
