Billy's Rockford Bar

Excellent appetizers selection, friendly courteous service, good burgers. Good bourbon selection at reasonable prices.

Great food, spacious and wait staff (especially Bekah) that is friendly and attentive. Had shrimp tacos that exceeded my expectations. Pico de Gallo was fresh and the serving size ample. Drinks were tasty also.

Avoid like the plague. Owner thinks it's his personal playground. Won't even let you play what you want on the jukebox. It's also a cash only bar. Who doesn't take credit cards in the 21st century?

My self and 2 of my coworkers stopped at Billy's for our lunch break and the overall experience was not very stellar. We walked in and sat down at the bar and the employee said we weren't allowed to sit at the bar if we weren't 21. That was pretty irritating especially since it was during lunch hour. It was also irritating having a waitress that never came back to refill drinks . Billy's also doesn't take cards but they do have an atm. The food is okay, the burgers are terrible. Overall it's not worth the time or money.

New owner Rachel is great! Good drinks good food! It's usually busy but there is always a couple seats at the bar your drink is never empty!

Under new ownership. An atmosphere of calm and inclusion. Good food, nice place for lunch with tasty specials. Servers are friendly and attentive!

Attended a 50th birthday party on Saturday. I bought a beer for the birthday "boy", gave the waitress a $20.00. It was busy so I didn't track her down immediately for the change and figured she would bring when she got a moment. After about 15 minutes I asked her about the change; she didn't remember me giving her a $20 bill. I didn't want to argue and how could I prove at that point and said o.k. She proceeded to tell the manager or owner about what happened, brought me my change, then shortly after that the manager or owner confronted one of the guest in our group, who is on oxygen, and had a bottle of water in a coozy about bringing outside beverages - a bottle of water!! I realize they sell water, but she carries it in her bag for her health and pulled it out not thinking twice. With the size group that attended and the money spent, I don't think fighting over a bottle of water was a good business decision - we all promptly left. Would not recommend the establishment.
