Ahhh.....The Ramblin Rose! This is the BEST dive bar (and grill, they just don't have it on their sign.) I have ever step foot in, so far! It's kinda like "Cheers" Everybody knows your name....I have been a patron of this bar for a few years now. It is in walking distance to my house.
Be prepared for loud DJ/Karaoke, but it is good, fun music every time! The DJ is an absolute hoot! And he keeps the party hopping til 2 in the mornin....(Seriously!). It is rather smoky and they could stand for some updating on their ventilation system.
But hey, there's cheap, STRONG drinks to take your mind off of your eyes burning out of your head...LOL!
The crowd is very diverse just as everyone else has mentioned. And OMG! let me tell you, they have the BEST burger in town (in my opinon)!!
They Char-grill that bad boy, toast yo bun a little and load it with whatever you want...Oh and CHEESE....yummmm....Then they add a mound of plain potato chips to the plate! Two people can share this burger and chips and be full!
They have specials every nite. Monday is free pool, Tue you can get that burger I just described for $2.00! Along with $2.00 beer..I know, unbelievable, right?? Â I can't remember the other specials..Thursday they have shuffle board tournaments, and that's alot of fun! So, the next time your in Rowlett, stop on by the Rose and have yerself a damn good time!
Really a great place, give it a try!
Dive Bar is the only way to describe this place and it's one of the best! The people that come in are so diverse, some red neck some biker some prep but for the most part they seem to meld together and coexist in this tiny little bar very well. It funny to sit back and watch a 6 foot 2 biker play pool with a guy in a suite and get his butt kicked. This is one of my favorite places I don't get over there near often enough.
Review Source:This place is the very definition of dive bar-and I mean that as one hell of a compliment! Â
Its a small bar and there are alot of regulars0but also a lot of people who are newbies! Â It is as eclectic a mix as I have ever seen at a watering hole(21 year olds up to the geriatric set). Â Rednecks,preps, and all manner of inbetweens help make this place a great place to have a cheap but strong drink.
Keep in mind this place can get really smokey so if that bothers you don't waste your time stopping. Â Also it can get quite rowdy so if that bother you move on. Â the Karaoke can be quite funny.
If you are in the area do yourself a favor and stop on in. Â Guys pay attention to the great mix of modern and old fashioned in the mens room(automatic flusher on the tin trough urinal). Â Good Times.
It's a dive bar -- but it's a great one!
If you're expecting high class -- go somewhere else.
If you're looking for where everyone goes to chill out and have fun, you're in the right place.
And yes, it can get a little rowdy. Â :P
Drinks are strong and cheap -- smoke is THICK!
Parking sucks -- but it'll be a great night regardless!
i came here with two of my girlfriends. it was very chill. alot of good ole country boys and hot mama's. they have pool tables and karaoke.
i was only there for a hour and it was love at first sight. i really loved it. very small town bar... only thing is good luck getting parking. its packed but thats the way i like it. oh & when you leave be sure you'll possibly have rowlett police on ya.
