Enjoying time at a bar with friends can be a fun social outing. Maybe it\u2019s game night that entices you to go out or simply a gathering of friends. Whatever the draw is, if you enjoy it, it\u2019s worth your time and energy to partake in it. \u00a0However, what if you could take the fun social outing right into your very own sports-bar-themed basement? Invite your friends over, watch the game, socialize, and show off your custom-designed sports bar. It sounds like a blast\u2014especially with no need to drive home when the party\u2019s over: simply wipe down the bar and walk upstairs.<\/p>\n

With many natural stone slabs to perfectly complement any dry bar or wet bar<\/a>, function and beauty go hand-in-hand. Between granite, marble, quartzite or Della Terra\u00ae<\/sup> Quartz and other great options you\u2019ll find the best slab countertop to curate the best ideas for your basement sports bar.<\/p>\n

Wet Bar vs. Dry Bar<\/h2>\n

Perhaps your space dictates this, or maybe it’s solely preference, but there are benefits to either a dry bar or a wet bar. One style may be more \u201ctraditional,\u201d like that good old wooden dry bar in your favorite Irish pub. Another may be of a more contemporary wet bar style in a fancy wine bar. To help develop the best design ideas, understanding the differences in the styles you may like is crucial.<\/p>\n

A wet bar is exactly what it sounds like: wet. Ok, maybe not exactly, but a wet bar does include plumbing to host a sink and maybe a dishwasher. This added functionality will work for your sports bar if the accessibility to a sink is beneficial to you. Ask yourself these questions: Do you want to be able to wash drinkware, rinse your hands, etc., right in the very space you are entertaining? Or do you want that function to be independent – perhaps in a basement bathroom, utility room, or the kitchen upstairs? Also, consider if any plumbing restrictions would inhibit a wet bar in your basement.<\/p>\n

\"OverheadImage: <\/em><\/strong>Overhead of Volcano Granite Basement Bar Countertop from Arizona Tile<\/em><\/p>\n

A dry bar is going to be just the opposite of a wet bar: dry. There will not be plumbing involved in the layout of a dry bar. If you need a sink for any reason, you\u2019ll have to step away from your bar to tend to those needs in one of the locations discussed above. A dry bar definitely fits the mold of a more traditional bar setting. It\u2019s where you serve and enjoy drinks with friends gathered around. Frankly, this may be your only option if running plumbing into your basement is not feasible.<\/p>\n

Regardless of whether it is a wet bar or dry bar, for your basement sports bar, I doubt your friends will mind and you can create the ideal space either way.<\/p>\n

\"Belvedere

Traditional<\/h2>\n

If your aesthetic preferences are for a more traditional sports bar style, you may envision wood and stone and expect a darker ambiance. A stylish wooden bar with a granite countertop\u2026 what\u2019s not to love? The wood makes it traditional and comfortable, along with semi-subdued lighting and a darker color palette, while the stone countertop adds function.<\/p>\n

Granite<\/a> is a great way to showcase this aesthetic because it is timelessly beautiful, remarkably durable, highly stain-resistant, and long-lasting.<\/p>\n

\"Belvedere

Now, if this is a sports bar, it is absolutely acceptable<\/i> to select a stone that has some of your team\u2019s colors in it! Maybe you love depth within color, or maybe your favorite sports team is fashioned in like colors, either way Volcano<\/a> granite (which also contains quartz, mica, feldspar, garnet, and biotite) stuns with its black background, whites, and oranges. With a similar depth of color that fits seamlessly into a traditional-style pub decor, Belvedere Satin<\/a> shines with its black background and ribbons of gold and white.<\/p>\n

\"Mont

Modern<\/h2>\n

A more modern, sleek style sports bar is just as awesome as a traditional style, it is just different than the latter. With a modern bar, a lighter, brighter color palette may be more likely expected. Of course, it is all choice and preference, and you can even combine light and dark colors, like above with this Mont Blanc<\/a> quartzite and Fantazy Zebra<\/a>. For your modern wet bar, integrating a backsplash will be an important feature to protect the back wall from water and moisture. Dazzling this space with marble<\/a> will even add another layer of pizazz.<\/p>\n

\"MontImage:<\/i><\/b> Mont Blanc Quartzite Countertop, Fantasy Zebra Marble Bar Backsplash, Reside Beige 24×48 Porcelain Floor Tile, & Chymia Mix 1 Black Porcelain Fireplace Surround from Arizona Tile<\/i><\/p>\n

Opal White marble will make a basement sports bar look crisp, clean, and bright. The white tone is perfect if you want to brighten up the space.<\/p>\n

\"OpalImage: <\/em><\/strong>Opal White Marble Basement Bar Countertop from Arizona Tile<\/em><\/p>\n

The neutrality of this excellent white marble will allow you to add any sports-related d\u00e9cor you could imagine\u2014no need to worry about colors clashing! With marble, however, just make sure you maintain it with proper sealing to keep it looking its best for years to come.<\/p>\n
