The service took incredibly long even though it was very slow. Not terrible, me and my girlfancé can excuse it. But the food was wayyyy below par. My girlfancé ordered a pizza. it was flimsy, burnt, too salty, and it was the best thing we ordered. My fajita chicken was burnt on the bottom of every piece. Our chips and salsa / cheese were ABYSMAL. Gas station chips are much crispier, the salsa wqs like water + tomato paste, the cheese was thicker and dark yellow, worse than cheapy movie nacho cheese. Overalll, me and girlfancé warn you - Farleys Food Fun & Pub may have some nice merch with ufos on it, but yummylicuous food is an ALIEN to concept to this establishment.

When we asked around for good places to get a drink at Pepper's frequently came up on the list…read more Staff was amazing and helped seat us somewhere we could be a little more loud and the location next to the bar was perfect. The interior is surprisingly large with a spacious dining room to the right, more seating near the bar, and even an outdoor space that had live music when we went. Spicy Beef Nachos Appetizer: Chips topped with queso, green onions, jalapeños, black olives, tomatoes, guacamole, and sour cream. My friend got this and I had a couple bites. Chips were not soggy and it was large enough to cover as his dinner. Green Chile Burger: Topped with monterey jack cheese and roasted chopped Chaves County-grown hot green chile. Served on a jalapeño bun with a side of our hot green chile sauce. Their signature burger and it tasted good. I don't need too much food but the amount of fries I got was too little even for me. Got two Johnny Walker Blacks with a splash of coke and they came well mixed and quickly. We did end up getting rained in and hilariously went back for a second dinner to wait out the rain. Black corn taquitos were OK, I would not get the fried shrimp basked again, the shrimp was too small and there was too much breading.

The hostess (whose name I forget) went out of her way to take special care of our huge group of 10 people who dropped in on her on a busy night. Our server Heather was a total rock star! She had never heard of Pink Floyd (heresy!) but treated us like royalty. All in all I would have to believe that Peppers treats every single customer like this - and highly recommend a stop.

They don't bother me at all, but we also had to shoo away them and especially flies which are sure annoying. I opted for a whole #9 turkey with black olives ($13). I am glad I did get chips, salad, or soup. It would have been too much for me. The avocado on my sandwich was a bit of a turnoff, having browned quite a bit. However, it was tasty. My oldest got a whole #12 BLT ($14). That thing had a ton of bacon strips which she didn't share. Lol. She at all of it. She had a cup of tomato basil soup which I thought was okay. Not my favorite. The lemon berry mascarpone cake ($7) was very delicious even though the cake part fell apart easily. Our waitress was friendly, but just a bit weird at times - like not handing me the receipt when I reached for it. She instead placed it further out in front of me. She just was in La La Land I guess. I would back for a lazy brunch with mimosas.

Housed in an historic old building that has been crafted into a really cool visual background to the scent of hearty barbecue cooking that reels you in. The best is yet to come as you enter and are greeted by super friendly staff, or if you are lucky enough to catch the owner, Tony, working at the grill. And then there is the barbecue...absolutely delicious!! Great selection, but not overwhelming, so that you can quickly get to the best part - eating. They also have a great bar, that is very well stocked, especially with my favorite barbecue accompaniment, whiskey. We left with huge smiles on our faces - great food, great folks, and just a great find that we hope to be back to soon.

Cold Grill…read more Restaurant and bar located inside the Holiday Inn Roswell that serves up decidedly American fare with a nice bar menu to accompany it. We only ate here because we were exhausted after a long day of traveling, and the convenience factor of it being inside our hotel trumped the less than superlative Yelp reviews. The Good: *Surprisingly, the food overall was very not bad (read edible). The fries were decent, and my Tuscan chicken sammich was not the worst thing I've had in my life *Local beers on-tap The Meh: * The actual menu changed quite a bit from the photos we found online. *Only open for breakfast and dinner. *Margarita was good but weak *Overall, our server was fine, but she did have a snarky reply to what time they officially opened as she was contradicting the sign they had in place. *Prices were a bit high for the area, but considering this place is here for convenience factor, then it makes sense. The Ugly: *Pub chips were a bit overcooked (i.e., burnt) TLDR: Maybe the low reviews gave us low expectations, but it wasn't terrible. If you're staying at the Holiday Inn, and you have the energy to go elsewhere, then by all means, do it. But, if you're exhausted and just want edible food, then this ain't a terrible option.

Ate here since we were staying at the hotel and too tired to leave again. I was hesitant due to…read morethe fair reviews on both Yelp! And TA. But the deal I made with my husband was if it was not edible, we would order pizza! Service was just ok. Kinda slow, even though not busy. But the food was fantastic, drinks too! We split the buffalo wing appetizer ($8.75) and the sliders appetizer ($8.75). The drinks we had were a Mexican mule and a lemon drop martini. Buffalo wings came with 6 (kinda high price IMO), and pub chips. Wings were a good size, had been baked, the flash fried. Good and tasty! Pub chips good to too. Came with ranch, celery and carrot sticks. Beef sliders had 3 to an order. Had cheddar cheese and bacon on them. Also came with pub chips. They didn't look great and first, but had a great taste to them! Drinks were nice. The only happy hour they had was Bud light and Coors light for $3. From 5-7pm. No apps on happy hour prices. You do have to ask for the 10% discount for staying there (show them room key). Only reason to take a star away was service.

We rolled into Roswell to do some sight seeing and this place was right behind our hotel - perfect. It was a Monday at 1:30p and the place was half full. Nobody at the hostess station, but we can see staff sees us so we wait and wait and wait. Finally we get a table and we realize, while the place is half full, there are 3 large parties (10+ people) and the bar is packed (not a seat to be had). We should have just left, but they grabbed our drink order and told us one of the groups was leaving and it was all good. Yeah, no, it wasn't. The Mormon missionary group of about a dozen next to us seemed to have a table, 12 waters and EACH individually ordered a take out meal and had to b checked out as 12 different tickets! The other table of ten on our right seemed to have put in drink and food orders and had been waiting for who knows how long. Finally, after another 15m the hostess asked for our drink orders again and said she would get them as our waitress was taxed. OK. She comes over with two random beers and I look at her and am like, this isn't what we ordered (twice) and she just looks puzzled (about 5 minutes later after wandering and asking around it ends up being two drinks for the table next to us). We still have no drinks. We are about to leave when the waitress comes and apologizes and runs to get our beers. Then she gets our order and can tell we are little annoyed. I must say after this everything came out fast and we got out in like 20m after that - because who wants to sit around and be ignored anymore. Not a great experience. Food was fine. Service was abysmal.

Great news for the regular poopers out there, this bathroom has a fan!! The bed was comfortable, not too hard and not too soft. I love having a kitchenette and a decent size fridge. This room has great perks, including a peaceful nights sleep. I was pleasantly surprised that the alarm clock has a wireless charger for your iPhone. The breakfast was...meh. Different English muffin sandwiches, an egg white patty of some sort, a bowl of something spicy, grits, waffles, yogurt, boiled eggs, toast and muffins. There was juice, coffee and tea. Overall, I recommend this hotel.
