Showdown Saloon

Review №1

Rating: 5

We love showdown. A hole in the wall bar we frequent throughout the week. Vallerye and Jordan are the best. Attentive and always a smiling face greeting us! They have pool tournaments Tuesdays and karaoke Friday nights. 2 pool tables and an outside patio with TVs both inside and out. The food is typical bar food but its always good! Cheap drinks, cheap good food you can not beat it.

A good place to go somewhere quiet. I m not sure if anyone knows about this place. Pool tables, music , and karaoke. If you re looking for a nice quiet bar, try this one out. Picture of nachos. Not bad , made with Doritos chips.

Really love this bar, it may be a little small but the bartenders are all kind and friendly. Also pretty quick with serving the drinks. Been here multiple times and have never had an issue. It has such a comfortable environment. Definitely would recommend to friends.

This is the last place for cheap drink in North Texas as far as I can tell. The bar staff is great. Jordyn and Nina are great. they make a mean burger, too. The cheap drinks and the pool tables seem to be the main draw. Its a nice little sense of local community here.

This was the third time we visited the Showdown Saloon. We love the comfort and nostalgia this place brings. The fact that it s an older facility doesn t take away from anything. It s clean, well-swept, and polished as could be. It s a very nice place to go. The only thing that s holding this place in the rut that it s been in is the help. With the exception of Angel, the bartenders have been nothing but offensive. I blame the owner. The POS system was down tonight and I felt bad for the help. Poor Nina must have been exhausted. She had a complete and utter meltdown. Unacceptable. Where is the owner??? From the moment we walked in tonight, we were nothing but an inconvenience. Where is the owner??? This facility runs at 60%. What a shame. I will miss the Showdown Saloon.

Mixed review for me. I just moved to the area and Googled the closest dive bar and this one is right around the corner because I love dive bars. Great atmosphere and friendly bartender and some cool customers. Unfortunately some of the regulars were not too friendly. Im Hispanic just moved from the city (Dallas). One regular asked my nationality, another when I told him I was from Dallas asked with hand jesters am I from Oak Cliff or Pleasant Grove ( Predominantly Hispanic neighborhoods). I advised Im from North Dallas. Went to patio and had sports discussion with a gentleman and I thought all was well. Paid my bill and when I was in the parking lot the same gentleman said alright ese after I told him my name earlier. I got out my car to tell him thats not cool, thats when I realized I came to the wrong bar. I actually bought multiple rounds for customers to show appreciation but got burned. Basically ok bar but I wasnt welcomed, guess I will have to drive a little out of the way to enjoy my self in my new town.

Showdown was cool. Jordyn was sweet and took care of the customers, and the locals were all friendly. They have shuffleboard and 2 pool tables and some other games. Another thing, Ive never seen this in a bar before, was a coin op washer/dryer so you can run a load of laundry while youre hanging out. What a great idea. I had a good time here waiting for a thunderstorm to blow over.
