Bars near Balch Springs

“Good Place to hang out and to chill out“

“100 % recomendado tienen buena comida y los fines de semana tienen karaoke en la tarde y las micheladas son las mejores de todo Dallas sin duda“

“By FAR one of the best collections of Mezcal you’ll find North of the border. Excellent service, incredible food, and only steps from Fair Park and the Music Hall. Highly recommend this gem!!“

“I always come here since like 2 years ago and the vibes are always chill. I enjoy the prices and the crowd that goes is older which I prefer. You don't really see people sloppy here or starting fights or anything everyone minds their own business and doesn't really cause problems. You see a lot of regulars here and you can shoot some pool with friends. They also have slot machines and darts. I really come here because of the crowd.“

“A huge fav! We were supporters of Small Brewpub (even before it opened) and although we were sad to see them close, we heard then that Aaron had something brewing (pun intended) near Fair Park. We watched the progress through COVID and after as Wriggly Tin took shape. When it finally opened, we were blown away! What's not to love? - Aaron's beers (finally, Black Pepper Pilsner again!) - cool cocktails! - fantastic pizza! - beautiful indoor dining space with the same hand-crafted vibe as Small! - a fun, dog and kid-friendly outdoor dining space (now with a stage)! - a restaurant that believes in paying employees a fair wage! - digital menu, ordering and payment! On top of all that, it's been great reconnecting with Small founders like Aaron and Josh, plus it was great seeing our good friend Greyson (who were meet when he was at the original On Rotation location) join the staff here. Do yourself a favor... check it out!“

“Great neighborhood bar with cool atmosphere and dog friendly. Great place to watch sports!!“

“I feel good at that Restaurant“

“You want a good bar, friendly people, nice staff and you happen to be a smoker. Well, your best option is Parks Place. They even have Guinness on tap. So, if you enjoy a stout, try it out.
You'll also have a chance to listen to a plethora of musical genres while there, so get the AMI Play app before you go.
I haven't had the food yet, but they have a hidden menu. Ask your server.“

“Wandering Canadian review! Flying Saucer The Lake is literally my favorite spot when visiting Dallas. The vibe, the beer, the food, the people are all great! Vannessa has been a rockstar server for our crew the past few visits. As someone who loves surprises, Vannessa steps up and delivers. Her energy, kindness and creativity are infectious. I hope management recognizes her commitment to making sure customers are taken care of and have a great experience!“

“I enjoy the Awesome DJ iikold jams.“

“Good prices and nice people.“

“Nice local taps ,great location !“

“best dive bar in East Dallas with the most amazing bartenders!!!“

“Great hidden drink and food spot!“

“The female bartender is rude and, also demand tips after she over charges for drinks. She also treat people of color very rude . She has counted each time Ive visit the club in the last six months and accused me of not tipping her. I never order from her when I'm there and don't drink alcohol just cokes. Please correct this before a lawsuit is filed“

“it's like a big family! Very homey and the singer Lee is Amazing and can sing Anything!! The food is good too. The owner Jodie is the most giving person I have ever known!!! All of the staff is so nice too.“

“We just had the most wonderful experience at Hillside Tavern. The food was phenomenal and the atmosphere was chill enough that we were able to bring our 11-year-old niece to eat with us. The service was top notch. Chad and his team are doing an incredible job and we’ll be back very soon to try out the rest of that awesome menu!“

“I came here to support a colleague from work’s band. The vibe is neighborly and the food is absolutely delicious. I moved down the street a few months ago and have gotten food to-go a few times, it’s always fresh and tasty. If you’re into dive bars, this is a hidden gem.“

“They cool but that BBQ gurl crazy two meat plate for 20$ when all the other real BBQ shops are 2 meats plate for 15$ I'm like b just renting a spot n side u need your on building charging that much but that's black folks for u always trying to come up off the poor in my name is prettygurl007!“

“I came here thinking it was a bar, it was attached to the Alamo draft house but it was still cool to visit! I didn’t get the bartenders name but he was so chill and nice to talk to. Will definitely be coming back maybe to see a movie and have a drink as well!“

“Ebeneezers is open for the good times again. Terry the owner is on top of the good times creating great memories. Drink specials galore. New folks get 50 percent of the first tab. Great music, pretty bartenders, and great music! Terry's about to open the kitchen very soon with $1.99 burgers! Make the party by being here on the regular just like the old times. I've always loved this place and that's why I speak highly of Ebeneezers. I've made great memories here for four decades. Come see us at Ebeneezers you won't be sorry.“

“my husband and myself enjoyed and early dinner today at the Dallas location. We had the best waitress named LuLu. Her service was so fast and she was so attentive. I had the tortilla soup and the bowl was huge. It was fresh and perfectly seasoned. My husband had the fajita nachos and we shared some queso and tortillas of course and it was all fantastic. Can't forget about the frozen margaritas, they were the perfect compliment to our dinner. This location treats us wonderfully everytime we come.“

“Great Ramen spot with Japanese accoutrement throughout. I would definitely recommend!“

“Best homemade burger!!! Delicious“

“We had a large birthday party for our girls recently. What a fantastic experience from start to finish. Booking and coordinating the event was easy, the service was fantastic as always and the food was delicious. They are the best and do an amazing job. Everyone had a great time. Thank you again for such a wonderful evening.“

“just a place we you can let yourself go.“

“The security got over on me and my boyfriend he charges us 20 each to get in he says then says he just going to charge my boyfriend 20 and let me in free only if we're going to drink , when actually he was supposed to let us in free he was charging us for security service which isn't our job he was rude arrogant and disrespectful SECURITY ISNT SUPPOSED TO CHARGE BUT THEY CAN JUST FYI ....I didn't argue nor did my boyfriend because he could have lied to the owner and got us banned“

“This pub is a real treasure! 🍻 The environment is warm and lively, especially suitable for gathering and chatting with friends“

“Hello it is the best catfish forget about long John silvers i wish it cleaner service was ok.“

“Very cool and super fun. Great people and reasonable drink prices.“

“Very beautiful and tasteful food!“

“I didn't know what to expect, I was visiting some friends in town and wasn't familiar with the area, so my partner and I stopped by for some lunch because it was the only place nearby. Completely unexpectedly, I had the best rare steak I've had in 10 years. Their cooks know what they're doing. The atmosphere was very cozy, as someone who has lived in the rural south most of my life it kind of felt like coming home. I can't say the overall experience is for everyone, but if you want a nice little homy bar with some damn good food and don't mind a little smoke, I would recommend it. Don't expect it to be fancy, but I'm sure as hell going back text time I'm in the area“

“Its bigger than it looks on the outside and warmer than you would imagine (kind, not hot)

Just good, Texas hospitality. The staff is attentive but relaxed which shows that most of the people there are frequent flyers. Plenty of pool, sports, music and friendliness to go around. Overall, a top-tier place to grab a drink, shoot pool, play poker, or just take a load off. 10/10 would lean against this post again.“

“We had a party of six and our server, Elena, was excellent. Dinner was delicious (large portions). The atmosphere was really nice on a Saturday evening. Highly recommend.“

“Their food is always fresh, flavorful, and outstanding!!!“

“I recently visited this restaurant, a cozy restaurant that exceeded completely my expectations. From the moment I walked in, the warm lighting and subtle chic decor made it feel welcoming and relaxed.“

“This place has a great environment. Always drama free. The owners Mrs Kathy & Mr Carl always treat everyone with so much love & respect. Great music, Pool Tables, dominos etc. If you're looking for a great old school vibe this is the spot for you.“

“Great drinks, great food!“

“This was a treat. It has the feel of a "Cheers" kind of place. Plenty of TV's for sports viewing. Our waitress was so nice and attentive. The food was great. To my surprise, they had fried mushrooms (which I love). We look forward to coming back.“

“Cool Steampunk designed retro bowling alley in Art Deco 1938 Lakewood Theater. Double Dave’s Pizza-the cauliflower crust pizza is my fav and the pepperoni rolls! Frozen Ranch water is so good and they have a full bar with great beer selection as well. Love!“

“First time watching a movie 🎥🍿 here. It's a real nice place. I love the decor. The only thing that I couldn't get wrapped around my head was why were the tables sit in the middle of two seats and it's far away from seat 🤔. I kept trying to see if it moves closer but it doesn't. So your drink is far away. It was good no one was sitting next to me because I had my drink and popcorn close to the edge of the table 😊. the other thing that got me was the server came to my seat and interduced himself and then he said he needed to see my ticket first 🤔. When he went to the people behind me he didn't ask them nor the ones in front of me 🤔. This made me feel some kind of way. But I quickly dismissed this because I was letting nothing spoil my birthday celebration 🎉. If you do it to one please do it to all no matter what they look like.. overall I truly enjoyed the movie.“

“Great, friendly service. Food was delicious and very chill atmosphere! 😋“

“Me and my Daughter have Lunch it was Delicious !!“

“Great drinks. Great atmosphere. Love it. Love it.“

“I come to the mesquite location often and I'm never disappointed. You have some great servers here. Especially Juan and Maddy they never disappoint.“

“The food was good, the price fair, the service minimal ok. What was unacceptable was the BLARING VULGAR PROFANITY laced rap music, and the cars stacking up around the drive socializing and smoking pot so that you couldn't park, or even drive around to find a place to park. I brought it to the managers attention and he just became argumentative, and said this is what his customers want. No problem, we won't be back.“

“Team Maxwell - Ride or Die's!
My friend and I came here because I was craving their lava cake. We were luck enough to get Maxwell, who was kind, funny, fast, and professional. He exceeded expectations. I let him know that I wanted to close out the tab immediately, and some servers will be far less attentive after you paid.
Not him.
He made sure we were taken care of until the moment we left.

Overall, it was a great atmosphere filled with friendly and lively energy.

10/10 experience, will def come back and request Maxwell!
Thanks man ^.^“
