Best bars near American Airlines Center?

American Airlines Center is a venue in or near Dallas that is most often used for Hockey

The Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 club is a sports bar with food such as wings, nachos, BBQ and is a fan favorite and is located inside the arena so what's better than that?

There is a Hooters that my husband loves going to with his friends. Dicks last resort is another good spot that a lot of fans go to before the game. There are also some bar options inside the AA Center as well.

We went to a bar called Happiest Hour which is about 5-10 minutes away. Was a fantastic 2 level bar, with a massive beer garden up top with plenty of heaters to keep warm. Highly recommend to anyone visiting American Airlines Centre.
