Strongers . left this review about Sports Bar
Casino & Bar does exactly what it says on the tin in the Resorts World Complex in the grounds of the NEC. Inside there are two bars, the High Line straight ahead from the entrance and the Sports bar to the left before the large casino with slot machines in the larger left-hand side beyond. There was some crooning in the High Line, so I decided to stick with the U-shaped Sports Bar where a curved counter on the rear wall faces a row of high tables with raised booths around the windows behind. Above the bar are multiple screens, including a very large on, that loom over the seating, county cricket and horse racing being the sports of choice during my recent midweek evening visit. Premium keg was available alongside Stella and the service was polite, but the casino vibe gives me the ick, so I don’t plan on returning.

Large open plan bar, part of purpose new built Resorts World standalone complex within the NEC grounds. Its a 15 minute stroll from the railway station and 20 minutes from the airport via the sky-link to the station. Resorts World contains bars/restaurants/shopping/hotel/spa/casino all under one roof.
Does what it says on the tin! Modern fit out with big screens for sports and horse-shoe booth seating with there own speakers and telly raised high towards the bar. I'm not sure whether you can request a sport if you sit in a booth or if you have to find a booth showing your sport. Its very sleek and modern, part of the casino & near the Skyline bar.
There is a burger area adjoining
No real ale, various lagers on tap.
