Billybob's/John-E-B's Reviews

The iconic bar from Fort Worth's rich cowboy history where you can watch indoor bull riding, play pool or video games, enjoy a country concert, or just grab a brew with some friends. This place is a part of Texas history.

Best rates for company private parties in fort worth. Our Christmas party was awesome and the food was delicious

The line dancing class was so entertaining! The beer and BBQ is also very good.

love this place ... even tho its constantly filled with touritst its fun

Liked the atmosphere, disappointed to see little kids and teens running around looked more like a daycare. Food, was great, Steve Wariner put on a great concert.

Best date night ever! And there have been plenty after 19+ years married, and 3 years dating before that!

Absolutely the best has amazing artist come for reasonable prices

I forgot how amazing this place was....have to get out here more often

honestly after hearing all the hype about Billy Bob's country I expected to have a really good time but unfortunately it was a lot of attitude from the bartenders... This place has enormous potential it just needs restaffed

if you are interested in live music, dancing, pool, drinking and bull riding, this is the place for you.

Very fun place. Cover fee to get in, but lots to do. Many bars, real bull riding Friday and Saturday night, eatery, video games, claw machines, "bull" pictures, pool, and gift shop. Highly recommend.

Saw Stoney LaRue here. Had a blast. Very cool place

What a place!!! If you love country music, or just life in general. Stop by and check out this piece of history. Definitely check out who is in concert before you hit the stock yard! You may get lucky! Tanya Tucker just happened to be there on my trip. Good food to boot.

Great place awesome atmosphere. And never wait to long to get a beer

Good place to visit, if your from out of town, or have not been there before. Prices are high for food and drinks, but about the same as all of the other"tourists attractions" in the area. Usually have pretty good bands playing. Dance floor is way to small, for the number of people on any given weekend night. They do have a lot of great and popular artists, and bands that perform concerts there. Ticket prices are not bad at all really.

Nice venue, not real good acoustics but lots of bars for service and various food bars.. smoking area needs to be bigger..

There is nothing quite like drunkenly slamming down a Billy Bob's chopped beef sandwich after a few too many Jaegar Bombs. Highly recommended

Fun atmosphere with plenty to do. The private rooms are well lit and stocked and are suppressing of external sounds. Will definitely go back

Be careful when you visit late at night which is usually when they're open cuz there's guys in the parking lot that will rob you always go in groups

One of the strangest disappointments I've had while touring Fort Worth. I understand at 6pm on a Monday night there won't be a ton of people hitting the "40" bars here, but I didn't expect 39 of those bars to be closed along with everything else in the joint. I'm bummed they charged us the $2 entry fee without advising us that nothing was open, leading us to walk around with almost nothing to do. No live music, maybe a handful of drinks at the open bar (singular), and definitely no people. I was really excited to see a landmark of Fort Worth's honky-tonk scene, but instead I'm walking away with a $2 piece of paper and some empty memories. I'm also really disappointed to see that the ticket I bought was good for an entire month, but it expires tonight. So I can't come back and give this place another shot without having to pay again.

Big Red was entertaining the shoe shine guy did a fabulous job on me and my wife's boots. The lady bartender we had was fast and accurate on our drinks. Would recomend going even if you'll need alot of $$ to enjoy it to the fullest.

Lived up to the name. Rodeo show is definitely worth the ~30 min detour.

Definitely an acquired taste for anybody that is NOT a cowboy!

This place is a blast. Went for a concert and is was not crazy crowded like i expected. Had alot of fun with my friends!

If you don't like honky tonkin', then go on and git on out of my Republic!

First time there was taken back by all the people that have performed there can't wait until I move here and see a live concert!

I remember I went here when my mom had her birthday. We went down here and had a blast. I was kinda young to understand most of it. Someone else said they would rather eat cats and dogs that there trash pizza. I find that completely racist. It would really help me if you said this review was helpful.

I went for the first time on a Monday evening so the place was really dead. Haha
I will definitely update my review after I go there on a weekend.

They have some great bands, but the venue for concerts is horrible. I have seen several bands there and even had seats, but the sound is directed more towards the middle and the table seating tends to encourage entirely too much cutting up, talking, and noise during the concert. The last concert we could barely hear the lead singer, Josh Weathers, talk. I know it's historic, but Billy Bob's really needs to renovate that part of the building.

great atmosphere at the Ol Domion concert and overall a great place to visit if I'm Fort Worth.

This place is HUMONGOUS! There's probably 30 bars, 5 stages, a gift store, several food shops, rodeo ring and 70 young cowboys trying to find some lovely ladies to dance with them for the night. Had a lot of fun here on a busy Saturday night. Great live concert names too.

World's largest honky tonk bar and their concerts there have always been a blast!!

Out-of-towners and locals co-mingle in this true-to-life country music honky-tonk on steroids. Inside this historical looking building (feels like a warehouse) there s a couple of huge live music stages, umpteen bars, a little BBQ eatery and a full-on rodeo ring were you can watch semi-pro and amateur bull riders get tossed around during the 30 minute mini- Merica extravaganza. Kids are welcome too, but it can get pretty chaotic, what with whirlpool of country line dancers and all. Can t get enough. Tickets were $16 and a little more for the rodeo.

Great place to see a band. Get here early to see the bull riding in the arena inside Billy Bob's. If you like bull riding this is the place to see it.

Really cool place but if there was a fire I would have died

Great Place for a Concert. To go Visit and Have fun.

Attended a concert here and really enjoyed the venue. Parking can be challenging but not impossible. Lots of people, but the place is huge so you really don't feel it.

Nice Honky Tonk Adventure. The Pizza taste not so good and softdrinks with chlor. But beer and music is good. At weekend live Bull riding. You can smoke inhouse.

Big honky tonk night club. For a non Texan I felt comfortable and like I belonged. Live music, dj, bars, billiards, games, dance floors and rodeo. This place is amazing!

I loved the music and games they offered here and couldn't believe all the cool handprints they had of famous people!

Love this place! If you are in Fort Worth this is a must visit!!

Security is definitely thorough... I had to go to therapy.

Billy Bob's and Gruene Hall 2 best venue's in Texas for live music.

First time visit, huge place, good food, lots , to do.

We had fun. Wish there was more seating by the dance floor

When during the day when not much was really going on, but we checked out all the hand prints and explored. I didn't realize that the bull riding stadium was indoors.. crazy awesome!

Great Dance Hall if you haven't already been you need to go!! Great Atmosphere!!!

World s Largest Honkytonk pretty much sums it up!
Always a good time. Staff is friendly and never had any problems here.
Always good artists and the house band is outstanding as well.

Very fun place to attends a concert if you like country music. They need to re- arrange that stage, we could not see the whole band, just the singer in the front.

Most definitely hands down the most fun place to go great food great service and definitely can't forget those yummy white gummy bear drink
