Homer's Bar and Grill

So let me start by saying that I may not have given this place 4 stars if I wasn't there for a dear friend/family members birthday.

For those of you who may live in the city, where there is a smoking ban, rest assured that you can bring all your cigarettes here and just stuff the whole PACK in your mouth and smoke them all at once if you choose. MAN oh MAN was it smokey..so much for re-wearing my shirt the next day!

The name of this place is Homers Bar and GRILL, please note I didn't see one drop of food nor did I smell or see a grill or a menu for that matter.

From the outside, you think to yourself, "Maybe we should choose the sports bar that is next door" (as coincidentally there are two sports bars in one parking lot). My husband and I arrived to the surprise party early and ventured on down to the "other sports bar" that I wont review because it was horrible, empty and the bartender was dumb! So we quickly left.

There must be like a certain time that this place gets "cool" because we arrived at 9:00 pm and I swear there was no one in there but a couple of dudes with beards, I referred to the as "Lynard Skynard" and one HUGE CIGARETTE seated at the bar having a beer (ha!) At that time I didn't even think of looking around..I just thought to myself, this is what you expect in a city that starts with a silent "P" (Pflugerville)..

But when we returned at like 9:45pm all of that changed..even the bartender was different! It was a nice crowd, minus the almost fight that broke out..of course one of the dudes was with our group..OF COURSE..There is a bouncer that works the door, and he's pretty nice, checks ID's, holds the door open for the ladies..

The drinks were good..I order the same thing everywhere I go, (EDM, with extra Olives/Absolute) so it's nice to be able to get a good one at a bar, the glass was chilled and the drink Icy, just like I like it! Oh, and I am very particular about my olive, they must be skewered, I don't like floating olives in my drink.

The juke box was on point, our party pretty much had that on lock down so if you are into rap music then they have it..I played Justin Timberlake's "Don't hold the wall" and just about got booed to death..but I am fine with that..I chair danced anyway.

I recommend that you try the VEGAS BOMBS..so shot that was pretty tasty. I wasn't warned that the shot glass was still in the cup, so as I go to toss it back the shot glass slams into my front tooth, but it's all good..had I lost it would have looked like 53% the other people that were in there..LOL..

I LOVE this place, I'm a regular. Sometimes the drinks are a little pricey, and I agree that the late night crowd is sometimes a little "iffy" but Homer and Shelly are WONDERFUL, and the regulars make it worth the hassle!

You will meet a lot of different kinds of people here.  Everyone was having a good time.  The bartenders were nice and up to speed most of the time.  No table service though. There are 2 sides to this place, so there was enough seating.  Very loud on the karaoke side and loud on the other side where you would probably want to watch tv at.  There was also plenty of parking.  It was a fun time.
