The food was great. My parents and I stopped for dinner on our drive from S. Carolina back to Michigan. Loud sports, but food and service was great! I ordered chicken nachos, my mom ordered a chicken sandwich with wag's chips and my dad ordered the grilled chicken sandwich. Large portions and everything had a lot of flavor! Our waiter was very helpful and hospitable. The restaurant and bathrooms were clean! read more

Wagner's Roadhouse - Pulled chicken nachos - American Near Me - Chillicothe, Ohio

Service was great, burgers and fries were awesome! We ate Every bite! It is what you expect! Kinda warm inside with the summer heat and run down, but clean- definitely a Dive bar feel but with tasty food! read more

Great place for bbq. My daughter enjoyed her spicy chicken sandwich too. We enjoyed the mushroom appetizer and lemonade cocktails.

I've always said that Wagner's tenderloins are excellent and they normally are. Today's was not so good, it was obvious the oil in the deep fryer had not been changed for quite some time. Fresh oil is very important. Please keep an eye on it don't lose the good ratings you have. Thank you. read more

Stopped by this establishment by pure coincidence and absolutely love it! Nice size local diner with full bar. The prices are excellent. My premium drink was $5.50 for a Honey Tennessee and Coke. The food was delicious and very taste. If your ever by this area please stop by. My waitress Davida was absolutely amazing! Not to mention the establishment is extremely clean including the restroom. read more

Wagner's Roadhouse - American Near Me - Chillicothe, Ohio

There are a lot of great little dives in Chillicothe where you can get a good meal, and Wagner's may be the best of all of them. A trip to Wag's is becoming a weekly ritual for my husband and me. Neither of us has yet to try anything here that we don't like. The pulled pork, which is smoked on site, is my favorite. Also, if you appreciate a creamy Cole slaw that's on the sweeter side, this is the place for you. Plenty of seating is available for lunch and the tiny bar is usually occupied by at least a few colorful locals. I recently ran into the vice president of my senior-year high school class. I hadn't seen him since graduation day in the 1980s! So far, all of our visits have been during the day, but we are planning to try Karaoke Night soon! We're also looking forward to warmer weather so we can sit on the patio and take in some live music. read more

Wagner's Roadhouse - The Rodehouse Burger with Fries and Cole Slaw - American Near Me - Chillicothe, Ohio

We'd never have found or gone in this bar if not for the Yelp reviews! And, we had a great time with a good staff, good bar food, congenital customers and Friday night karaoke. The stars are deserved if you don't expect too much from an old rundown bar doing the best that it can! read more

See all

I pick this place at random. Food was fresh and well prepared. Food order, Hot Baloney, fresh chips, Roadhouse burger, onion rings, cheese burger, fries, club Samwhich Everyone complemented the food. Inside was clean and friendly people. Worth the stop!!! read more

Delicious food, friendly servers and they're always hosting fun events from paint nights, to beer Olympics, to karaoke. I love this place.

Tenderloin was good and beer was cold. Perfect summer stop. Crowded on Mondays due to trivia contest but we managed.

HECK YES!! I recommend this place every time!! I wouldn't go anywhere else in Chillicothe but this place. Clean, nice environment, short wait, and good drinks and food. Kudos to the wags staff. read more

Was passing thru coming home from buying a truck in West Alexandria headed back to NC. We'd been up for 30 hours at this point and starving and this was on our GPS. I thought it was a steakhouse, then when we pulled up I thought it was a country diner, then I realized it was a straight up bar in the middle of nowhere! We walked in and it felt like a scene from a movie where the music stops and everyone knows you're not from around there. Couple of guys sitting down eating would not even acknowledge me when I said hello and have a nod, some ladies at the bar were the same. Pretty typical of Ohio people, certainly the most unfriendly state I've ever been to. Anyway, the bar tender must have been 11 months pregnant, and she was doing it all! Bar tending, taking orders, cooking the food and cleaning up. All by herself. She was so nice to us, she did a fantastic job and the food was fantastic. The locals were dickheads but this employee made up for it and I would stop here again if I ever have to pass thru the dreadful state of Ohio again. read more

We almost drove by the place thinking they were closed. We were pretty close to 4:00 so the crowds hadn't started yet. So glad we stopped! We had pretzel bites with beer cheese for an appetizer and they were absolutely fantastic! My husband got the special tenderloin sandwich and fries and I got the club sandwich and onion rings. Both meals were so good and the portions s were huge! So glad we stopped! read more

I got some odd looks because I have 4 kids with me and didn't realize this was a bar. However they were very nice and the food was good.

Fries were a shade of brown I've never seen before. Cheeseburger was missing cheese and nothing was done about it. I'd avoid if your not a local. read more

Great food and staff! The wings are on point and you get fast and friendly service!

Food was decent, served as ordered. Place is small, not busy at the time, several loud bar patrons were a little annoying, even for a bar setting. Wait staff was efficient and friendly, just right. $3 PBR drafts brought back good memories. Would return when in the neighborhood. read more

The best part of a road trip is all the podunk little towns you can hit on your way. We stopped in here via a Yelp search. Only 4 reviews, the newest one over a year, but when a place gets 4.5 stars, I'm down! Wagner's Roadhouse does not disappoint. Unbeknownst to us, we got in 10 minutes before the kitchen closed. The bartender/server/hostess with the mostest greeted us warmly, made a little chitchat, gave us our menus and recommended the Roadhouse Burger and the Pulled Pork sandwich and the chicken wings "Hell, everything is awesome!" and brought our drinks right quick. We went for the burger and the pulled pork. They were both outstanding and the coleslaw was the best I've ever had. The service is great, the food is great, the ambiance very much what you'd expect from a roadhouse frequented by locals. No one looked at us sideways so that's a plus! The next road trip we take will definitely make this place a stop. read more

Very pleasantly surprised. Hadn't been in Wagner's for 40 years. Nice and clean. Great service. The food was excellent. Everyone was extremely friendly. Highly recommended. read more

Friendly service and fresh, hot food and cold beer made this a top stop for a late lunch. If I lived near I'd be pleased to be a regular at Wagner's. Great choice and a classic roadhouse. (I loved my Buffalo wings and my husband his cheeseburger and fries.) read more

Best barbecue I've had in a long time- Carolina Gold. And the Texas tenderloin is gigantic. I only ate a quarter of it. This place is a gem and a great value. Overheard plans to improve and expand! Wish them well. Sorry it's too far from home to pop in often- but it's FANTASTIC FOOD! read more

Really good food at a great price. I highly recommend this place if you live near Pleasant Valley. I've never been disappointed with the food. The staff is friendly, and it's got a nice "down home" feel to it. read more

Wow, easy review! Stay away! A table of 6 and served so slow first couple was done eating by time others meal came.. just stay away!

Terrible, cold food! Burger burned to a crisp! Waited over an hour for food! Don't go

Great stop for our late lunch. The burgers were fantastic and server was very friendly. The place was a friendly neighborhood bar. We stopped on our way through town because we didn't want the typical fast food place. We were not disappointed. read more

Ever since the new people took it over this year (2014) not only does it look a million times better but the good is absolutely amazing! They really know what they're doing with their food. The service is amazing too. The only critique I could give is that it was a bit warm in there but other than that I can't brag about it enough! We'll definitely be back time and time again. read more

Read the reviews and decided to stop. Was not disappointed! I grew up in a small town and now live in Indy. This place made me feel immediately at home and not out of place. The food - stellar! We arrived as the smoked pork was just finishing and the smell told me I had to have the pulled pork. One bite and I was hooked. Small location with big flavor. Make the stop. It's worth it! read more

Ate lunch here a few days ago. Restaurant was pretty empty. I was greeted as soon as I walked in. Server was friendly and was attentive for the majority of my dining experience. I found it a lite odd that my burger and tots came out before my appetizer of wings. Burger was good and hot. Tots were also cooked nicely and served hot. Spicy BBQ wings were not very spicy in my opinion but they were huge so I had to take some home with me. They do warm up well as the waitress had noted. Overall a nice lunch with good food. read more

Great food and live music almost every weekend! Staff is awesome, new ownership has made it a great local bar!
