Linksters Tap Room

This place was pretty okay when it first opened, but the list of reasons NOT to go there are overwhelming:
1– you can actually here people getting lung cancer when you walk in. the cigarette smoke is so bad you would think they have a fog machine
2-​mixed crowd of golfers and good pool players and douchebag drug dealers, drug users and disrespectful brat boys
3-​pool tables are never kept up and rarely function properly, not to mention there are only two tables and they are way to close together which makes actually shooting nearly impossible and along the same line as the evening progresses this leads to more and more disagreements and tiffs
4-​There is never free pool there, so many other places with more room and better tables that offer free pool. Why struggle and pay to play on a horrible table
5– God forbid if you need to use the bathroom… yes I said THE bathroom, it wouldn’t be so bad if people were actually just using the bathroom for what it was designed for and not one night stands and drugs.
6-​drugs are pretty openly distributed there which causes a lot of the next issue, everyone is so coked up that they want to fight over everything!
7-​more fighting over quarters on the pool tables…
8-​you also have the jukebox right next to the pool tables and always have a line of youngsters who apparently cannot get into a night club so they come to linksters to get their «rap» on
9-​you have not really experienced their customer service until you have been DOUBLE tabbed, and accused of not paying your tab… even though you did and can prove it! Well boom apparently you all of a sudden have a second tab!
And don’t point it out or complain because their «manager» Johnny… will just 86 you for life.
which is hilarious… you mean I can’t come back in here to be treated horribly and have you steal from me? really? waaaaaaa
My recommendation is just avoid it, they don’t have food anyway… whatever appeal they had inn the beginning is certainly gone.

Went in thinking I was going to a TAP room. This place is a smoking room that has a few beers on tap. Had to wash clothes after 1 beer. Plus 4 or 5 really drunk drunks. First and last trip there.

Not a bad place for drinks and watching the game.
It’s mostly outdoors, which is nice when weather isn’t too warm. The bar is located in the Cooper Creek shopping center by the water fountain. It makes for a nice outdoor experience.
The trouble with it is if you’re non-​smoker, you need to not mind the smoke bc some drinkers like to smoke.
Overall, it’s a nice local watering hole… Unpretentious and close to the burbs.

Went in for a quick drink after work. Thank goodness quick holy smokers. The beer was cold and service was average. Interesting people watching though saw two fights and watched a girl pass out while standing up. And this was before 9pm. Won’t be going back cause of the tar in the air.

I like this bar but the smoke is awful. Even when u sit at the cool little outside bar u still stink like cigarettes when u leave. I will say they do have some good bartenders there as my beer never sat empty and the shots of fireball were rolling.

No food. Tons of smoke. I love food, and I despise smoke.
There are so many other bar stools in town to choose from.

Cool little spot… but there is NO FOOD! You are allowed to smoke Inside therefor no food. The smoke is almost intolerable, both cigars and cigs

Walking up to Linkster’s, I was met with caution tape. I should have known then that this «bar» would not be up to my 5 star standards. To begin, the jukebox would not stop playing Whitney Houston. This normally would not be an issue, however one of the acquaintances I was with is a recovering cocaine addict, and hearing any Whitney Houston song gives her the itch. My bartender was very friendly and may have been attractive if he did not have so many teeth missing. The crowd at Linkster’s is quite diverse. I prefer to socialize with the 1% and unfortunately, this is not a bar that the 1% frequent. Linkster’s did have a nice variety of beer on tap as well as low-​end wine and liquor. To deal with my surroundings, I was forced to take multiple shots and ultimately ended my evening slumped over the jukebox declaring my love for the late Whitney Houston. From now on, I’ll stick to the Hyde Park Steakhouse bar.

rude bartenders and bouncers. go to World of Beer instead. i want to give it just 1 star but it will get 2 because of cornhole and pool table lol. other than that they are awful here. i always give a place 3 tries, and i was treated poorly all three times. The latest of the three visits, i had been there from 9pm to 2am i treated my friends and i, ended up paying, $ 185 not including tip. At 15 minutes to close the bouncer was yelling at me to chug my drink. i retorted that i had spent a good amount of money, left nice tips. i also said that «i cant chug a drink, i will leave before closing i just cant be forced to chug a drink». They yelled «Linksters is a million-​dollar establishment that doesnt need your money» With that i left. Again, Dont waste your time here, go to WORLD OF BEER! its AWESOME! :)

This place deserves 2 stars rather than 3 because:
–it’s very very smoky & stinky
–ZERO eye candy (gals & guys), as in NONE, NADA…
But I was generous w the extra star because:
–there is nowhere else for people to chill & grab a drink in a casual environment around here!!! yeesh
–there are 2 pool tables so you can get up & do something besides sit there drinking in a smoky room
–some kind of jukebox w current music (RIHANNA!)
–there is an outdoor area where you can see a little fountain… and a parking lot — yeh
–right next to a Bonefish so when that place shuts down at 10pm (totally lame) you can hop, skip & jump your way to this lovely bar
I was w fun people so I had a good time. The bartender gal was nice, the guy was a d*ck which didn’t bother me bec I would never remember his face 5min later anyway.

This is a nice spot for a beverage and relaxing, unassuming time. Highly recommended. Only negative is the odd location.

I can’t believe I had to ADD Linkster’s and that no one else has ever reviewed it. When I lived in Sarasota this place was my cheers. I’m not kidding you when I say that I was here like 5 nights a week — and to watch football on the weekends. This was MY place. The bartenders were cool, my friends were always there, the drinks are good — GET A SNOW CONE SHOT! mmmmm, and there’s usually a totally random vibe about it. It’s got people of all kinds and that’s always fun to watch. I still stop in sometimes when I’m in town if I have time — and here’s where you know I’m serious about this place — THEY STILL KNOW my name and I’ve lived in Dallas for over a year.
