Billy Bob’s New Secrets

Worst bar in Dekalb!!! Unless you wanna be robbed, drugged or shot at!!! Recently this bar has become a cesspool!!! During the day it’s old folks slobbing on themselves at night after about 1 am it’s the trap house!!! Don’t get robbed, shot at or let your car get hit cause the old ass hole Billy Bob won’t let you review video tape scared to get shit down. Be advised of the bar late night. HORRIBLE, scary and just dangerous.

Ok so first off, the people that rated this bar 1 star are idiots. I am pleased to not drink with them. I love this bar, it’s low key and exactly what I need in a bar to fully relax. The food is amazing. The staff is phenomenal! I love them ALL and Billy Bob especially!

Great, friendly local bar. Willy, the chef, can make anything you want and there is breakfast available all the time. Jan is our favorite bartender and never passes an opportunity to chat. We always feel welcome here and there’s always someone to have a good conversation with. A fun place that’s been going for 35 years.

Great drinks and Jan is maybe the best bartender in Atlanta. Food is good as well. They do allow smoking. So plus or minus.

Good burger cooked to order. that was a surprise.
Smoking allowed which is always bad. Pbr only. Many tvs. Executive board room, that was odd.

This place is a nightmare. We came in to have a few drinks not knowing what this place was and there was about 5 – 6 senior citizens sitting motionless around the bar watching the tv. You could hear a pin drop in this place it was so quiet. My girlfriend and I were literally texting each other at the bar to avoid being the only ones talking. A few of the patrons gave us disapproving sneers and the bar tender was incredibly dense since we had to explain 3 – 4 times that we wanted 2 miller lites. She acted like we were asking her to explain the meaning of life.
To make things more awkward, the drunk guy next to us asked the bar tender a question that seemed to offend her and she snapped back. It was so weird. We quickly got the hell out of that place and will never come back.

I love Billy Bob’s! A friend took me here a few years ago and I’ve loved it ever since. The food is always really good, (Burgers here are the best!) and the drink prices are really low. Even though Billy Bob’s has an incredible juke box and huge flat screen TV’s all over the place, it’s cozy quiet which I like since I hate noisy sports bars. The food here is always consistently good, unlike most bars which serve boring «bar food». I had the most delicious Meatloaf with mashed potatoes, green beans and cornbread the other night. Try the daily specials if you’re not in the mood for one of their great burgers. Most importantly, the drinks at Billy Bob’s are strong and cheap! Be prepared for a smoking bar which I am glad still exists, even though I am not a smoker. My favorite part of Billy Bob’s is the people; the regulars who come to Billy Bob’s and the ones happy to serve you. It’s so refreshing to have such sweet and friendly people treat you like family. Compared with other local pubs, Billy Bob’s is so much better. This is my new favorite neighborhood pub.

Perfect dive bar! One of my favorites! Comfy seats, stiff drinks, and a great mix of folks for people watching.

great place for drinks… jan is one of the best bartenders around

The «secret» is out. Nothing new or worthwhile here folks. Move along.
Hubby got sick from the lunch «special» so unless you live down the street and lost your license and NEED a drink I see no other reason for stepping through this door.

The first time I walked into Billy Bob’s I was a bit terrified. It struck me as the sort of bar that used to give the old hippie me a hard time. But I no longer have long hair, reak of dope, and play Dark Star on jukeboxes. So Billy Bob’s felt safe and warm and had icy cold Miller High Lifes. I moved less than a block away and it has become my local bar at this point. The drinks are always strong thanks to Jan behind the bar. The jukebox always plays something I like thanks to regulars like Christian. And the people are all kind and welcoming. Being a relatively new non-​smoker (about a year at this point) makes it a bit difficult to visit too often because Billy Bob’s makes me want to chain smoke and drink whiskey. Not their fault at all, simply a flaw in my own character.
