Rocky's Tavern

I love this bar, come here consistently. The people are super friendly. The regulars are very welcoming. My boyfriend and I went to a nursery today to get some plants. We stopped by on the way home for a couple drinks, and I thought the plant needed some water, so they watered it for us. Absolute heroes.

Went here on a Thursday night with friends visiting from out of town, six of us total. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the moment we walked in. The bartender, Mark, saw us come in and deliberately ignored us. When we politely asked about the drink specials, he pointed at a sign without saying a word and turned his back on us. We tried to get help from a female employee, hoping someone else might be more welcoming. She told us only Mark could help us. He acted like he was the boss, but clearly didn’t want to serve us. If he had taken a moment to check IDs, he would have seen that our guests were all active-duty military. Instead, we were met with attitude and indifference. As someone who used to work in the service industry, I found this not just disappointing, but embarrassing, especially after recommending this place to our guests. When a tavern’s employees act like they don’t want you there, it’s a pretty clear sign not to come back. We won’t be. Response to the Owner: 1000% NO!?? Wow you guys are absolutely terrible! 💔

Came in for my husband's birthday with at least 15 20 people and the so called owner kicked us all out because someone was sitting on rail outside. She apprised very aggressive and then demanded that we leave. After few min the entire bar came outside for what... nothing! I dont know who this women was but she she ruined mu husband's birthday, she missed out on New customers and she was rude. We frequent this location with no problems. Whoever this new wo.e. was with purple hair, she has no respect, no professionalism and no tact. I was a great location to visit and hang after work, but yout new management sucks. We will not return. Horrible service!

So it was a Saturday nite ... Crowd was doing karaoke... Staff was attentive.... drinks were served quickly ... Great beers on tap and mixed drinks. Drink Specials aswell... Overall great bar ..

The dude bartender Mark acts like he doesn't want people to come to that place. Basically threw a fit when people walk in. He definitely was Not happy when I got there for whatever reason or that more people showed up, but Oh well. I had to come here to write a review because the service was so bad. I mean I get it, Nobody likes their Job but wow.. Wont be going back there ever (so you're welcome Mark!), PLENTY of other bars. P.S. they dont ID people there too, Mark is too busy to that haha.

Watch out they steal your information i had owner to take pictures of my i.d to keep for personal use plus mad because i dated a bartender thats white an im black so very races on owner plus discrimination an disrespectful like we grown why is she in my business or got my my information i. Her phone stole my identity witch is a criminal case then i got treated an she call my mom off of my information and said she pressed charges on me for contacting my girl because im black and shes white its very races in that place the owner doesn’t like blacks to come in bar its only whites allowed

Definately hangout bar I went on a Thursday so was pretty empty and dull Im sure better atmosphere at other times. Upside is they have patio which is a must for me as a smoker, prices avg, has big screens for sports.

terrible atmosphere, if your not a regular you will not be acknowledged as often but they will over-serve you past your limit for sure. Saw a lady throwing up, and throwing her drinks in the parking lot, with a lot of people doing the same thing, on top of that the bar themselves doesn’t bother to clean up after their messes.

Nice dive bar in the neighborhood. There are always extra snacks to enjoy. The last few times they had chips and queso and corn in a cup on top of the popcorn they always serve.

Fun Friendly staff. Great atmosphere and people were friendly. This was my second time there and I will be going back on a Saturday for Karaoke. JM

This place is my favorite karaoke bar to go to by far! Being a regular for a year now where the singing is fun and the drinks are great! Karaoke on Tuesday and Saturday nights! Bartenders are super attentive!

Ehhhh. This place is good for a quick beer.. maybe a single liquor mixed drink. There's only been one bartender that I've actually liked who makes good drinks, but they all kinda act like doing anything more than pouring a beer is inconvenient. The last time we went, the bar back was super rude, yelling and rushed us all out like cattle when they closed. Definitely won't be back.

Met lots of people and made new friends. Seemed like everyone knew each other there and lots of Trust in the air.

Excellent customer service! Both owners love to partake, in almost everything. They offer to clean your tables then check up on you especially if you're new. They have karaoke, an outside seating area and even a Tv showing outside through the window! The outside dining area has a warmer facing down so that you won't get cold. They have a pool table here to play and great bar tenders! One of the best bars I've been to in a while.

Nice, clean neighborhood bar. Staff was friendly and they had good beer and drink selection. Specials were readily available. They can't make mojitos or Moscow mules, but are able to quickly make drink classics like cape cod, vodka tonic, and whisky sour. Ladies restroom needed tending to as it was 9:30pm and already out of toilet paper. If you decide to be inside and like the feeling of an icebox, you're in luck. Otherwise, bring a sweater or light jacket.

This is one of me and my husbands favorite bars! We have so many great memories here. The best thing about this bar is the bartender Hayley she is absolutely adorable. She is very fast and efficient. Even when she is super busy she is always killing it with customer service.

I would have to classify this bar as a neighborhood hangout. Bartenders seem to spot regulars from across the room and more than a few people seem familiar with eachother. No real frills, but several good things to point out here: The drinks are fair. Looked to be about 5 or 6 specials in the $4 range available on the Wednesday I attended. There are good TVs tuned into the right games. Also: If you prefer tables, they're sturdy, if you come solo, the bar has plenty of spots, and if you need to smoke, there is a peninsular patio that juts out into the parking lot. I was surprised to see a DJ on a week night, and boy oh boy, was he eager to get the crowd revved-up. He honored every song request and invited patrons to play a number of games. I can't say I would drive across town to drink at Rocky's, but if I lived in the neighborhood, it'd be hard to find a reason not to drop in.

Went when there was a comedy show DJ:Music was good. There is only only 1 female restroom. Would have been nice for them to have a taco truck in the parking lot. They did have popcorn & peanuts.

Yeah f this place . Everybody in your business and spreading rumors about you (staff) a man works hard and just want to have a beer after work and this is not the place . Heavy set bartender is the worst I've seen behind a bar . Customer service sucks , bad attitude . It was a hail storm , nobody wanted to get out n drive in it , she said ste would call the police if we didn't rush into the storm and get off her patio . Great customer service

Great bar to hide and drink. Bar staff and regulars make you feel welcome from the get go. Drinks are made the old fashion way with a pour count. Plenty of screens to watch any sport from anywhere in the bar. I recommend this place to anyone searching for a place the chill on the northeast side of town.

This is a good local bar. They have nice pool tables and a place for a live band tucked in the corner. The bar has plenty of space and the mugs are always served cold. Miles was the bartender working and he did a great job at keeping a cold beer in front of you while working the rest of his bar. Definitely a tucked away bar worth stopping at.

I was in complete shock of how i was treated. The bartender was antagonistic and the next day the owner continued to argue on social media. The male bartender would not get out of my face after many times of me asking him to leave me alone. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=2280426598648959&id=100000449241026

I went on a Tuesday because I found out that they have karaoke.. And I love karaoke.. Now I love this place.. Drinks were good, owners friendly, guest friendly, all around great time and on a Tuesday.. Been back 4 times since all on A Tues

Based on the area, Rocky's is one of the better bars. It's definitely more of sports bar than anything with several TVs lining the walls and a couple pool tables. The selections for Happy Hour change daily but are always priced well; outside of Happy Hour, the prices are reasonable, plus they offer free self-serve popcorn. The speed of service varies depending upon time of day and who is working. Recently, I've noticed this place has become more of a biker hangout in the evening; not that this change is bad or good, just something I've noticed the last couple visits.

This is a divey gem. They have a pool tables, dart boards, flat screens, peanuts and popcorn. I love watching a football game being able to enjoy beer or mixed cocktails accompanied by peanuts and popcorn. I would highly recommend stopping by to check out this unique bar.

Rocky's Tavern is just what the O'Conner area needs! Everything about this place ROCKS! The interior is very well polished with something to do in every corner like old school video games on big screens, snack bar, dart boards, and pool tables galore. You can tell right when you walk in that Rocky's Tavern really put their all into the design, there's even photos of patio and interior construction on their facebook page. The bartenders make you feel right at home! Nicole can make a bomb Bloody Mary! They have great drink specials every day of the week and we take advantage of their cool Sunday specials. Don't forget your dancing shoes, Rocky's either has cool tunes on the jukebox, DJ's, or local bands/artists. Come check out this cool new hangout!

Just a tip if you go there, just drink average beer, and don't ask for craft beer because you will pay through the nose for it. But that's my thing. I just like craft beer...not a snob though, I get that it's a preference. The bartender was very friendly, and the place is comfortable. I'm gonna say naaaaah for me, because it's just not my kind of place, but I have to be fair...for a bar, it's clean, friendly and has potential to be fun.

This place is legit. I once rode my horse here and they accommodated the pony parking I needed. Inside they have very comfortable bar stools but being me I do prefer to flip them over legs up and then rest my bum. We all have our thing. Bartenders are awesome, they have my horse a trough of water. I say water, but it may have been Vodka but I shouldn't tell so I don't offend PETA. None the less, go here, it's awesome!

How fun is this place!!! Came here on a Tuesday evening and the owners came out to sing karaoke. Super friendly bartenders. Even made me a custom drink I asked them look up haha! Really great place to hang out If we were locals.

Checked out the local watering hole for a home we hope goes through this month. Ricky's has pool tables, dart boards, at least 10 beers on tap, margaritas, and friendly bartender, Mandy, makes a great Maker's & Diet Coke. In addition, Coke was free for our designated driver!!! Not that we got sloshed or even intended to but that's a great thing for a bar to comp DD drinks. No smoking inside AND ... It smells free of any stale smoke! We came out smelling as good as when we went in! Coming from Lubbock where most bars still allow smoking, and being a recent smoke-free gal (4 years except some lapses at smoking-allowed bars), I truly appreciate not coming out smelling like an ashtray. Overall, clean, friendly, laid back neighborhood bar! The lack of one star was only because I didn't notice any lounging furniture. Tall seats at the bar and concrete rectangular tables with tall bar chairs. I prefer having my feet on the floor. Also they had free popcorn and peanuts but not sure if they serve food. I guess I will have to go back to investigate further! :D

This has been my local bar for more then 3 years, service and hospitality is always great, customer service is always a priority which they always meet to fullest

This is a great local hole in the wall bar. The owners are usually around and even working. Rodney is always on top of the bar and no one ever waits for a drink. Opens at 2 and once the crowd comes in around 4 or so, he will still handle the bar with speed and accuracy. Friendly and engages with all the customers. Usually behind the bar Monday/Wednesday/Friday.

Was awesome experience ! Best nacho's in town ! Rodney the man ! Clean place and super cold beers !

This is a cool place to go with your boys and with your lady. I visited with my brother and our ladies for date night and have a great night. The place is nice and spacious, and has a little patio, great for smoking our cigars in the summer night breeze. They had dart boards and pool tables, which both were played that night. The ladies enjoyed a couple glasses of wine and my brother and I, a few glasses of good ole Texas craft beers, I recommend you try a few as well. The staff is really cool and friendly, we didn't have to wait long to be served, so that's an A Plus in my book. We really had a wonderful night. I'm glad that it just a few block away, because we will be back to replicate that same experience. Thanks..

Great beer selection, free popcorn brought to our table. Over 10 televisions, outdoor patio with live music. No food but you are allowed to bring your own. Friendly people & service. Right off I35. Pool tables, dart boards & free peanuts. Very clean.

Great place... much bigger inside than the narrow store front leads you to believe from the outside. The owner did a great job with the layout. Ten well-distributed televisions to watch your favorite event. Darts & pool tables available. The area was definitely in need of a local bar! Nice selection on tap... Was excited to find that they have my favorite, Angry Orchard on tap! But ended up being disappointed because it was so expensive... regular size from the tap was the same price as a bottle - $5.50 (more than double the cost of a Bud Lite on tap) - and an additional $2 if you order the tall glass. Wow! Don't pay that much for it at other local bars and on-tap usually means it costs less than bottled!!

My friends and I just happened to end up here. We had a cool Azz server/bartender (double duty) that night for her, she was pretty effecient, drinks were cold she even tried to make one of my favorite drinks she wasn't familiar with she did ....ok.....Cool little hotspot though. I'd go back :)

Great bar tucked away in a shopping center. Found it on yelp, was not disappointed. We stopped in for a beer and enjoyed the atmosphere. On our way out an older gentleman who works there took the time to thank us for coming, to drive safe, and to come back again because he really appreciated us stopping by. Well sir, we will be back. We appreciate good service. Thank you Rocky's.

So happy to finally have a nice little bar so close to home!! The owners really did a great job putting this place together. I always have a good time when I'm there. Their amazing staff really knows how to make you feel welcome. It's not a huge place but there's quite a few tables and lots of seating. They have 2 dart boards and 2 pool tables to keep you busy. Thursday night a dart league is there but they are usually done by 9 or so. Also on Thursday and Saturday nights they have a dj. He's awesome.. Plays great music. I definitely recommend checking out Rocky's. You won't be disappointed :)

I had a drink here with my old Army buddy I served with over in Korea. We had a lot of fun talking about old times. The establishment is well kept. Bath rooms are superior clean in my book. The staff was very friendly and ensured that you're drinking responsibly. They allow you to bring food in since they don't sell food there. The atmosphere is relaxing to have a drink. You must check it out if you live in the SA area or just visiting.

Decent drink selection but they muted the TVs to blast random dance music. And part way through the NCAA game, they turned on some bright colored lights that kept flashing in my eyes. This seems like a great place if you're young and want to dance, but it's not a good place to go to watch a sports game.

Our spot every Thursday. Great service and fantastic atmosphere. $5 delicious lemon infused vodka!!

Great place to have a drink after work. weekend's are chill, the girls here are hit or miss depending on the night, bar tenders are great. Its a low key spot with an up beat vibe!!

Rockys tavern is in a great spot! I like playing darts with the advanced dart boards online. My friends and I have played pool there often. The bartenders are great and very entertaining!

New to San Antonio and this could be why but Lula was rude. It may of been her birthday but she is not a princess for the day at work. Don't tell me that you are not going to name your bomb drinks. Just give me suggestions and when you are busy, do not tell me to use my words. If she hurried her ass up instead of sipping her Dang Starbucks and little Cesar's it would of been better. I will give it another shot to come but hope I get better service. Maybe by Stevie. That guy was polite, considerate and all around a genuine guy. Paid with my debit card. Hope she doesn't add extra tip to it.

Love this spot!! Always a great time. Nice and chill!! Rodney is the shit!! Margaritatinis are the best thanks to Rodney my new fave drink!!

Great bar to visit constantly, I know I do. Good atmosphere, great service and gorgeous bartenders. They host great music as well as two pool tables and two dart tables and an outside patio to smoke. Awesome bar tucked away in a small business center.

Ever on the lookout for homey dives with charm and good bar folk, I was interested to try this little strip mall gem. Lots of crafty beers on tap, including a hard cider (a tasty favorite of mine), a perfectly lit green oasis of felt in the cool dark was the beckoning pool table, and it was clean and cool after a hot afternoon on my motorcycle. I was SO READY to love this place! I wanted to feel at ease and welcomed by the attractive bartender, and I smiled at her in anticipation of the start of a new bar LTR. She smiled hesitantly and turned away to finish up her conversation with the boss or boyfriend, leaving me teetering on the edge of asking for a hard cider, smiling endearingly at the back of her head like a dolt. Bear in mind I am a straight woman with good hygiene, all my teeth and excellent bar ettiquette... No matter, shake it off, I mentally mumble. But in this nearly empty bar, I stood awkwardly waiting , as if asking for change on the street. The small knot of patrons began eyeing me with long looks, when in comes an apparent regular. The bartender breaks away from the huddle & chatting away, takes his order. Pours his beer. And goes back to her conversation. I pipe up. Would you pour me a hard cider? Please? I say in a very nice tone. She did. I was suitably grateful to take my pint to the smoking patio out front. It was a bit warmish, both weather and cider, I suppose to match the less warmish reception this intrepid bar patron experienced. Too bad. The last thing the northeast needs is another clique - ish tavern. On the plus side, nice amenities, easy access from 35 (O'Connor exit), near my favorite Lowe's (great plant bargains!) and next door to some outstanding Asian cuisine. I wont be back, but you might happen on a better day than i had there. Cheers!

Rocky's is cool. It seems to be very popular, but at this time I would be rating it 3 stars because it's just A-OK. This is always subject to change of course, and I would like to try coming here again. I tried a really delicious beer on tap called Alaska White. I also tried a holiday beer on tap, can't remember the name but I definitely won't get that again. It just seemed a bit crowded and a bit small. You do what you can with the space you've got, but they definitely could have had more seating inside. Also, it was freezing! The weather outside was chilly and they had the air conditioning cranked up to arctic blast. Maybe this is a good thing for the summer. Maybe it means that they will have it cranked up to arctic blast when people want it on that when the outside temperature is 100. Anyway I would come back again.

Rodney...our bartender that I found out later was the owner was very accommodating! He made me feel comfortable and made sure I was happy with my beverages! Friendly...OMG I'm in town just for a few days and I'm so glad my friend brought me here! The price is right also! Don't miss this hidden little treasure!

Awesome little spot right off good ole interstate 35. If you work in the area it's a great place to wind down with a selection of about 90 beers and a full bar with awesome wine and liquors to choose from. The staff was pleasantly accommodating, and the atmosphere was crisp, clean and welcoming.

Very cool place!! Great beers on tap. Finally a bar with a nice wine selection, and a super friendly staff. Jose and Meagan are awesome and one of the owners, Rodney, made it a point to stop by and say hello. We will definitely be returning!!

Me and my boyfriend came to this place based on the yelp reviews and we were not disappointed! Loved the fun upbeat atmosphere, bartenders were quick and very generous, and the pool tables were awesome! The only thing that could have used improvement is the seating! There was too many people with no where to sit down which didn't matter once the DJ started jumping anyways... If your in the area come here!! We are visiting from out of town but will definitely come back here!!! Oh and BATH ROOMS WERE NICE AND CLEAN THE WHOLE NIGHT!!!!

Nice selection on draft. LuLa was a wonderful bartender and entertained our crazy requests. Fun night.

I was really looking forward to nice glass of pinot when I got talked into coming to this place. Wasn't expecting there to be any decent wines here and it probably showed that by my sour face. Well that all changed when I met Rodney behind the bar. He was patient and he was kind and he actually found me a wine that I love. The weather was nice and there's a lil patio so we took advantage of that. There are plenty beers to choose from both bottle and draft if wine's not your thing and a full bar as well so come on out and give it a try I sure am glad I did!

Rocky's Tavern as the best wings try the red white and blue wings . Spot the bartender / cook is top notch best customer service ever. Pius not to mention the rest of Rocky's staff . go for the food stay for the service.

Great atmosphere especially as it is a Patriots bar!! Great staff and strong drinks!! Love the patio area too
