service was extremely slow. tables were sat 20-30 min after us got their food and checked out and left before we ever got our food. we were told it was grill food which required a wait. regardless, if it is going to take an hour for chicken tenders atleast get the drink orders right away. we waited atleast 10 minutes for anyone to come wait on us. waited over 45 minutes for food, was offered refills once we got someone's attention to ask about our food. also, completely understandable for things to happen if they were busy, but it was not. small crowd, no urgency from any staff. read more

Decided to try this for lunch today. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. We were promptly seated. We had quick and great service. We ordered the fish and chips with fries and a side salad. The salad was quickly served on a cold plate which was nice. I was disappointed when she came back to tell us they were out of tartar sauce. I know that's a small thing but I love tartar sauce with my fish. But they had already started to cook it so I didn't change to something else. I should have. The fish had a crispy appearance of being fried but it was limp and mushy. Not what you think of when you order fish and chips. I must say the fries were hot crispy and delicious! The sweet tea was also very good. I'll go back but will definitely look at more food reviews before I order. Manager came over and gave us a card for % off pitcher of beer next time. That was nice. I don't drink beer. read more

We stumbled upon Billy's tonight when looking for comfort food. Bryan/College Station does not have much comfort food, so we tried Billy's out. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. We had the chicken fried steak and chicken fried chicken. Aside from the heavy amount of salt on our steak and chicken (salted to the point of discomfort when eating), we really enjoyed our visit. The music wasn't too loud and neither were the TVs - even with multiple different games going on (we were only interested in The Aggie Softball game). We think we'll be back and hopefully the saltiness on the chicken fried dishes will be more consistent and not so heavy next time. read more

the food is always so amazing and our server Dimples is absolutely wonderful! I come here often and it's always a good experience.

This is a great choice in downtown Bryan, Texas and where we stop by at least once on every trip down. Our favorites are chicken and waffles, chicken fried steak, and southwestern egg rolls. Last night I had raspberry lemonades (made with vodka) and they were so refreshing! The vibe is laid back and the service is great -the friendliness you'd expect from the Bryan/College Station area. They also have yummy looking desserts but I've never had room left for dessert. read more

Food was great and affordable. Kaylee was very attentive and my cup never ran low. Beer was cold!!

When you think of Billy's Grille & Bar, its like to old T.V. sitcom show , "CHEERS" "WHERE EVERYONE KNOWS YOUR NAME". This was my experience the moment I walked in and greeted with a favorable smile that expressed , you're in the right spot for some good food. My lunch was a nice cheese burger and home made fries that was absolutely out of this world. Their customer service made you feel right at home with family. The dining area was very comfortable with friendly people that greeted you with a smile. I had the best experience dining out at Billy's Grille & Bar. And if you ask me... I would do it all over again like the ground hogs day movie. read more

Had a great time at Billy's. The staff was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. My burger was cooked perfectly, and the overall vibe was exactly what you'd want in a bar and grille. Definitely worth a visit if you live in Bryan or just passing through the area. read more

We went to dinner on a Saturday at 7 pm and had to wait 45 minutes and that is to be expected. We got seated at a sopping wet table. I ordered the mammaw's cheesestick and they were pretty good. However we had to ask for plates to put them on and they came out sopping wet. I also ordered the chicken fried chicken and mashed potatoes with a side salad. The side salad should have been called onion salad. I think i got a half of a purple onion on it. Then my waiter came out to tell my table where 3 of the 4 of us ordered mashed potatoes that they were out of mashed potatoes. What!?!? Ok i will take fries because what choice do i have? 2 seconds later our food was out. It was ok. Not the worst but not the best either. I tasted the mac and cheese and it was bland and cold. My husband's beer mugs were hot. I just don't think I have the need to go back. read more

"OK" is the right word for this place. I had lunch there, and the service was ok, the food was ok, the selection was ok... All ok. There were lots of fried options or burgers, so trying to eat on the lighter side if you do not want a romaine lettuce salad is a bit of a challenge. I wish they would 1) do breakfast all day-- I found more things on the breakfast menu that I wanted than on the dinner menu and 2) offer a smaller portion of the roasted chicken. read more

Very good food and the soup was amazing a lemon chicken with orzo. We will be back and the next time my family comes over I will take them here! I will have to try everything on the menu now. read more

Billy's food is good, when it is served in a timely manner. First trip, our service was on point, food was hot.. all great! The following times after we were disappointed to say the least. Second trip, slow and below-par service and we just chalked it up to him being new or maybe having a day. Third trip - It took an extremely long time to get service, as staff just seemed to hang out behind the bar... manager included. It took about 45 minutes for our food to come out and one of our plates was COLD... we try not to outwardly complain but after that wait.. we had to send it back. It then took another 25 minutes to pay our (bill split two ways) bills... we tried to tell the waitress up front how we would pay and it was completely wrong. Manager never came by and checked on us or anything... but it was a poor visit as we shared the table with empty beer glasses between the 4 of us, cold food, terrible service. We were really hoping for a positive turn around and got the opposite. read more

Took a friend to Billy's for her birthday lunch. My friend had the Classic burger, and I had the Spicy Jalapeño burger. They were both delicious! I will go back for sure! read more

Everything on the menu is fantastic. Great bar too. Service was prompt and nice. Cool place to hang out downtown.

Just had lunch at Billy's Grille and Bar. It was a great experience. We had a very attentive and efficient server, and we had wonderful food. I had the Cobb salad, and it was the best I've had in Bryan. My brother had the fish and chips and really liked it. My sister had the club sandwich and it looked great. My brother had the most enormous piece of chocolate cake, and I got a bite! Probably most delicious treat I've had in a long time. They have a baker come in daily to make their desserts. All in all, very delicious lunch. read more

Bad food, bad alcohol, and no vibe. Not a place I'd waste my time on when somewhere awesome is literally four steps away.

Cold drinks good food and great atmosphere. This place has amazing pastries and other sweets. This is a mix of sports bar and sweets. If ya have a chance stop on in and prove me wrong. We will be coming back here more often in downtown Bryan. read more

Best catfish ever!! everyone was really friendly, the food was fast and good, and we will definitely be back

My wife and I went to Billy's Grille and Bar for lunch after seeing on KBTX that it had opened last week and, on their on-line menu, that they had a Breaded Pork Tenderloin Sandwich. I hadn't seen a BPT Sandwich on a menu since college in Indiana over 45 years ago. I used to love going to John's Awful Awful in Hartford City for a BPT and a big slice of Strawberry Pie. But enough reminiscing; on to Billy's. They were packed during the lunch hour so we sat at the bar. Glen, the bartender, was helpful, friendly, and attentive. I, of course, had the BPT and my wife the Bacon Chicken Ranch wrap. The BPT was very good. The pork was tender and crispy and hung over the side of the large bun, as is the law. The Sriracha Ranch dressing is a nice twist to the MidWest classic, but, after all, Billy's is in Texas. My wife's wrap was likewise good. The fries were crispy and very tasty and we appreciated that the portion was adequate, but not huge. Normally, we leave half the fries at the end of the meal. Two lunches with fountain drinks rang up at just over $30. It's hard to pull that off at most fast food joints these days. Billy's will definitely be worked into our regular rotation. read more

Really impressed!!! We tried the one pound pretzel with cheese- yum!!! My husband had the chicken fried steak, 2 thumbs up. I had chicken and waffles and both were perfectly prepared. Nice sized menu. They also have nice cupcakes, pies and cookies. Highly recommend. Very family friendly. read more

Read your bill! This business added a credit card transaction fee to our bill without knowing whether we would be paying cash or credit. Food was average, the service was poorly timed with apps and the main dish arriving at the same time, and the ambiance was the bright spot of this place. We will not return. read more

Been here a few times in the little amount of time it has been opened and has not been disappointed. Food very fresh & filling!!! Great hometown atmosphere feeling is very welcoming. read more

This place better stick around. The family that owns it is well-known to the Bryan, Texas, area, so hopefully they won't be going anywhere. My mom and I went for dinner after she went for breakfast the day before. Normally, I am not one for "new" places, but my mom raved about the breakfast so I was interested in finding out about the dinner options. This restaurant is in downtown Bryan, which is experiencing a renewal and growing nicely. It holds a nice corner spot and has been refreshed from the former occupant. It was clean, the air was comfortable, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We were greeted as we sat and our beverages appeared shortly after ordering. We opted for the Mammaw's Old School Cheese Sticks, and they were different from any I ever had. They are a beer-battered stick served with marinara but you can ask for other sauces. They were loaded with cheese, not like so many where the cheese melts out before they are served. My entree was the beer-battered fish and chips and my mother had the Triple Stacked Club Sandwich. Both meals were served in a timely manner by our friendly waitstaff. The food was fresh and hot and presented in an attractive manner. The taste was outstanding. Our beverages never ran dry - I requested unsweet tea initially, but they had run out and were brewing a fresh pot. I accepted a substitute but as soon as the unsweet was ready, my waiter remembered and brought it to me without me asking. For a "bar and grille", it had a quiet & pleasant atmosphere. We did not have desserts or adult beverages on this visit, but they have a wide variety of both to choose from, including both combined into one - the adult milkshake. I can't wait to go back and hope it is soon. read more
