This is a great place to eat in- or outside, right downtown, lots to watch and nice set up. 4 of us had seared tuna tacos, black bean burger, chicken caesar wrap, and a personal flat-bread chicken Alfredo pizza. Everybody enjoyed their meals. Prices weren't too bad for a trendy dinner place, but parking's a little challenging, though cheap. We parked in a nearby parking garage.

Fights and gun fire at this establishment is every weekend in this place. Wear your bullet proof vest. Not worth a star.

Just took a chance without previous research. Lots of TVs with numerous games. Was noisy at times. Bloody Mary well made. Gorgonzola Burger was perfectly cooked and very tasty. Looked like too much to finish but did anyway. Buffalo Cheese Dip was huge and very good. Shared with another table. Social House Burger was great and paired with the sweet potato fries. No room for dessert.

Large bar and restaurant. Lots of TVs and had lots of football games on. I had a local hard cider which was very good- not too sweet. Chicken wings were ok. Small in size and not very meaty. Hubby had a chicken sandwich which was good/average. I had a bowl of tomato soup, also good/average. Good place to drink and watch sports. Would return.

I recently went with some friends to eat out, and not only was the waitress Payton extremely rude (forgetting our orders, not being attentive) but they overcharged us by $300. When we called the restaurant, the general manager Bryan was so disrespectful when speaking to us, cutting us off and raising his voice at us. when we asked to speak to upper management, he hung up on us. I have never witnessed such disrespect from someone who is supposed to prioritize customer satisfaction. Would not recommend, take your business elsewhere.

Good pub food! We enjoyed the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls and wings. Both were tasty and crispy. Wraps were also good. Server was friendly. Easy place with an extensive menu to grab a bite to eat after a long day or for a casual get together.

We were in downtown Roanoke on a Friday at noon of a three day week-end - and headed to Billy's. We were greeted by the hostess and advised that there was a staffing shortage and that there would probably be a 15 minute wait for service and probably a 15 minute wait for food. She suggested walking across the Square to their sister property - 202 Social House. We walked in and were greeted by few customers - who were very loud - and no host/ess or servers in sight. All changed rapidly as were greeted and seated - and Julianne - our server- promptly asked for our drink orders - which were quickly delivered. We decided on sharing a large Caesar and a Truffled Mushroom flat bread. The salad came out almost immediately - lightly dressed Romaine with plenty of parm cheese. Then the flatbread was delivered. My first sniff said - 'if this is as good as it smells, we hit a homer.' Well - it was a grand slam!!! The flat bread was substantial enough to hold the perfectly sauteed mushrooms and the fontina cheese. And topped with Truffle Oil and dark balsamic. A little messy - but a few licks of my fingers took care of that. And - Julianne stopped several times to see how things were going. This is decorated as a Sports Bar. Lots of Sorts Bar food and a BIG drink selection from the bar. Lots of strategically placed TVs - and two Michael Vick jerseys - among others. BTW - we cleaned both the salad plate and the flatbread board. :-)

had dinner there with friends. wings were good, flatbread pizza was good. pulled pork sandwich was tasty but very greasy. mac & cheese was liquefied & had an off taste. atmosphere was very loud. service was spotty.
We stopped in for dinner based on other reviews. We had the Chop House burger and the Steak and cheese sandwich. Both were very good. The fries were crispy and delicious as well. I would definitely visit again if I'm in the area.

We wandered about and stopped in here. Good choice, for sure! Had a very chill vibe, but was buzzing. Staff was great and personable. Food was great. Drinks were great. Good location.

Lots of options for dining and we went with the Speak Easy! Wind your way down the hall and pass the kitchen to the Telephone Booth Door and you'll find a awesome atmosphere and a full service bar and a full service menu. Justin is a true Mixologist and with a few questions he will make you a custom concoction that you will love (my wife did for sure) - he also makes a mean Dirty Gin Martini! Marilyn will take it from there with some great recommendations for your appetizer and your entrée. The loaded Tater Tots with pork was perfect and comes complete with sour cream and a awesome cheese sauce for dipping. We split a "The Godfather" flat bread and it was delicious! Great food, great people, and excellent service as this was on a crowded Friday night - we'll definitely be back soon!!

We had a group of eight and did not have any issue getting a table on a Saturday. College football was on all the tv’s in the restaurant. We were there for lunch. The service was ok not great. The food was typical burgers, etc. They have a full bar and good selection of draft beers, many local. The restaurant is a little load and the noise reverberates. It’s a good place to watch sports and not worry about being loud.

Had a reservation for 6:45. Was seated on time in the area we wanted with views of the tv for the football games. Our server was terrible! We ordered drinks and a bottle of wine. He wasn’t even sure they could make a simple orange crush. He came back to the table 30 minutes later to tell us that the bottle of wine we wanted was not available. Got the rest of the drinks but never got my son’s sweet tea. Finally 45 minutes later we were ordering dinner. (My son still didn’t have his tea.) Food was ok. My spaghetti and meatballs was not good. Meatballs had no flavor and the plate was all noodles! I could make a better dish at home. Probably the worst experience I’ve had at a restaurant in a while.
