R T’S

My wife and I have been coming to RT’s for the past year since moving to Denton. We were looking a local sports bar to hang out at. When we first started going there it was a smoking bar. In the past 6 months they have banned smoking and smokers have to go outside.
There is plenty of parking even on busy days. The really large L shaped bar has many seats. Around the bar is two huge TV’s surrounded by many smaller TV’s. The sound is excellent for a big game, or when the jukebox is on.
There is also a nice patio that seats a lot more people and has TV’s. There are plenty of tables. There is a side room with a comfy couch and another big screen TV. There are 5 pool tables (you’ll need quarters), a couple of dart boards, golf game, basketball game, jukebox, two bar games. You can also go out on the patio, and play a game of bags.
Most of the staff are awesome and the bartenders are knowledgeable at making mixed drinks. They really take care of you and treat you right. Great drink specials. On Fridays they have $ 3 double wells and $ 2 domestic pints. There are many beers on tap including some local breweries like Audacity.
The food is excellent for bar food. Best bar food I have ever had. They make everything but the tator tots fresh daily. The homemade potato chips, onion rings, jalapeño poppers and fried pickles are really good. My favorite basket is the buffalo chicken basket. You can tell its fresh chicken breast, and sauce has a nice kick. Large portion size too. The lemon pepper wings are really good as well. If you are in the mood for a burger, you can’t go wrong with any of them.
I took a star off, because the bathrooms aren’t the cleanest all the time. They need to address that. Great local bar, great prices and drink specials. I have come back many times and will continue to.

Best bar so far! Excellent customer service! Great environment and the best part its not smokey! Food is delicious. Beer at a great price. If ur in Denton area u should definitely try this place out. Fo sho coming back!

My people and I are regulars here. It’s a really great place. What I think of when I think of «neighborhood bar.» Staff is cool, food is really good, and the people are usually pretty cool.

Boyfriend loves their sandwiches. I’m love the fried pickles myself. Their buffalo wings are a must try along with the fried mushrooms! Staff seems friendly enough. They do get busy and it might take awhile, but totally worth it.

The bar was full when we arrived, but 1 minute after we seated ourselves, we were promptly served. The server continued great service through out the visit.
The stuffed jalapeños are a MUST HAVE. The tacos wasn’t appeasing. The 3 little pigs is good & filling. My friend had a burger that looked & tasted delicious. The only frozen item I tasted were the tater tots. Everything else was fresh & made in house :-D

This place is great because it’s right in front of my apartments, so I can walk there and not worry about driving.
The drink specials they have are great. The Friday night ones are my favorite. It’s $ 2 double wells, which is what I drink normally. I like the atmosphere because it’s a good bar and there’s plenty of people, but it’s not a crazy bar with a bunch of drunk college kids.
Watch out, though. Sometimes they have comedy nights and often the people are NOT funny, but insulting and gross.

This place is fantastic! The food is spectacular, it is fresh not frozen. Everything on the menu is very good. The cheese steak is one of the best in Denton. The staff are very nice and the game selection is well rounded. Pool, darts and an host of video game. Golden Tee is one of the choices. This is a great place to hang out. I have lunch here at least once a week.

By far the best bar in Denton with the friendliest staff :) great prices good food and good music

The atmosphere is awesome, very laid back and the staff is always so friendly. Good cheap drinks and awesome drink specials
Now the food…
Oh man the food!!! It was the most delicious bar food I’ve ever had. They kept a simple menu, sandwiches and some appetizers but they perfected and created the most amazing sandwiches known to man. I got the three little pigs sandwich and it was everything I wanted and more. I also had their fried pickles. Now I’m really picky with fried pickles and even some corporate favorites have not satisfied me. But RTs has mastered the art of frying a pickle because I was in heaven.

I’ll have to try this again. I heard the batter on the steak and chicken fingers was epic so we ordered takeout (we heard it was smoky so we won’t eat there). It was good but not great but it might have gotten lost in translation since it wasn’t eaten right away. I think the chips were the best side since the onion rings were definitely greasy. My favorite item was the chicken swiss bacon sandwich/​burger. I’d like to try an actual burger one day. Maybe one day it will be nonsmoking and we can eat there… hint hint.

damn great place to go for drinks. Nice pours and good prices. I’ve been there often enough that they always remember my drink. Also, really, really good food for a bar. Just a really nice, chilled out place to meet up with friends. Great bartenders, very friendly!
My ONLY complaint is that I feel that Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry should be banned from the Jukebox. They get played here a little too often. And by too often I mean more than 0 times. Put me in charge and that wont happen!

My go to place in Denton. Staff takes care of you, as long as you aren’t being a drunk dick. Atmosphere is awesome and there is always some type of sports on the multiple tVs.
Take too many Dragon shots and you will feel like dog poop the next day! Ha.
Only dislike is the smoking, but that’s with most bars, until it’s banned city wide.

My friends and I Thursday nights local spot —
Great service, great staff, they remember our go to drinks and great prices, some of the best in north Texas — the food isn’t like any other bar, friggin awesome !!!

I’ve been here a few times and the service is usually pretty good most of the staff is nice abs helpful. However there are done bartenders that want nothing to do with you and are clearly on a power trip.

Come to it cuz it’s close but bartenders always ignore us and our empty glasses

This is one of my favorite bars. The service is the best in Denton– all the bartenders are super friendly and great at what they do. Drink prices are good, too. I love chilling on the patio on a nice night, especially since I know I’ll be taken care of without having to go to the bar. Someone is always walking around cleaning up and taking drink orders. I’m also a huge fan of the newer non-​smoking section where there’s a dartboard, pool and foosball tables, and nice couches in front of a big TV.
When you walk in a bar and multiple strangers high-​five you, you know it’s a cool place.

This bar is usually hopping! Diverse crowd, pool tables, darts, etc. Great place to hang out.
Food is amazing. Inspired bar food that is all homemade and top notch. I recommend the three little pigs sandwich. Everything I have tried has been top notch.
My new favorite bar.

Gotta love RTs! They put in a new non-​smoking sections with some of the most comfy couches you can find. This really helps with the spillover from the main room. It’s also a great way for me to leave the bar without smelling like a complete cigarette after a long night! Still a great place to grab a brew and eat some awesome food from the newly updated menu!

This is one of my favorite Denton bars. Its a pool hall, restaurant, gaming, and bar combo. RT’s is located in an unassuming shopping-​center style building. RT’s is 21 and up so you’ll normally be greeted by a door guy asking for your ID. Most of the time in this area, you have to have your ID regardless of if you are 21 or 61. Denton bars often require a free «membership» to be able to consume alcohol at the establishment.
Inside RT’s, you’ll find 4 or 5 pool tables, game tops, dart boards, a golf game, shuffleboard, and skee ball. There isn’t a waitstaff, so you’ll need to go to the bar to order drinks and food. The small, American-​food focused menu may not look like much, but RT’s has, hands down, the best food Denton. I’ll start off with the Trey’s Wings. The spicy, BBQ wings come smothered in an amazing house made sauce and covered in melted onions. The Western Burger is a giant, perfectly cooked beef patty topped with BBQ sauce and one, large onion ring. Chips are cooked in house. The jalapeño poppers aren’t the frozen ones that are found in so many restaurants. They are large, cheese-​stuffed, hand battered, fried peppers served with a side of ranch dressing. And the steak fingers… so good. The only frozen food that exists at RT’s is the tater tots. The kitchen closes at 10pm.
The bartenders here are amazing. Service is great. Drinks are reasonably priced. The bar plays important sports games over the TVs and speaker system as well as offering an internet jukebox. You can smoke in this bar. But, rumor has it that RT’s will soon be expanding and possibly adding a non-​smoking section. There is also a nice, gated patio area equipped with heaters and a game top. There is a good mix of bar patrons at RT’s. Even though the bar is a few minutes from two most popular bar areas in Denton, it is worth the trip over there. Go for the food and stay for the drinks.

Let’s just be honest here… no one truly goes to Denton for fine dining. That being said, Denton is DEFINITELY a good place to go for inexpensive, yet very tasty food (as most university towns are.) RT’s continues this Denton tradition.
I’ve been multiple times for libations and eaten here twice. The first time I partook in the steak finger basket. At the first bite, you know you aren’t eating a frozen steak finger, these are definitely made in house with high quality meat. The chips. Oooooh the chips. I highly recommend them. Thinly sliced potatoes cooked to perfection, you can’t go wrong.
On my most recent visit, I discovered the greatness that is the Chicken Bacon Swiss burger. If you’ve ever had Chili’s Grilled Chicken Sandwich and enjoy it, you HAVE to try this sandwich. It puts Chili’s to a complete and utter shame. I think this may have been the most perfectly cooked chicken breast I’ve ever had. They put it on a fresh baked bun with (perfectly cooked of course) bacon, Swiss cheese, honey mustard and topped with lettuce, onion and tomato. Again, served with RT’s chips. Have it with the adult beverage of your choice and go home happy.
They were close to be a 5-​star but the onion rings have left a lot to be desired. I’m a huge onion ring fan and theirs were good but VERY greasy. Now we all know onion rings are supposed to be a bit greasy but the grease overpowered the O ring. After my first visit I chalked it up to a bad night but after my second visit, they’ve failed to improve. But that’s okay because the chips kick their ass anyways.
Oh and I recommend sitting outside too. Even when it was 48 degrees we still enjoyed the patio.
