Burger was amazing. Brussel sprouts were delicious! Service was quick and workers were nice!

They have a unique but smaller menu. Nice size drinks selection and desserts. Very cute decor and nice bathrooms as well.

Great food and drinks and price is right. I have never had a bad meal or drink there and will continue to come back.

The atmosphere was nice and having the big glass window to see out onto the street was neat. The food was okay, I got a burger and so did my husband, it wasn't the best seasoned but it was alright. The pretzel bites were overdone and the cheese it came with to dip was freezing cold so a bit weird. But I would go back to try different items if it was the closest eatery I was near. read more

The Cajun meatloaf was Epic!! I wish I had the recipe lol! Fun atmosphere and great food!

Call early for reservations. Very good very friendly. Pleasant atmosphere. Service is fast , and friendly.

Excellent food and services! Menu was different than most which I enjoyed the variety! We sat outside on the patio with the beautiful weather. I would definitely go back. read more

I can't believe this place gets 4-1/2 stars. Burgers that fall apart when you eat them. Steak n Shake style fries. Unseasoned bland side dishes. High bar prices. We've been several times now and while I won't say I won't go back, it will never be a first choice. read more

Stopped in for lunch. Had a burger and it was very good. Nice atmosphere and quick attentive service. I'll visit again.

Great service and bourbon collection, but the food and ambiance was just average for my liking.

Casual American restaurant & bar. Food was excellent. Brussels Sprouts & chick pea side/appetizer is highly recommended. Southwest Salad with shrimp was fresh and quite tasty. My companion RAVED about the Fried Bologna sandwich - it looked fantastic with thick well-fried bologna topped with grippos potato chips. Service was top notch, server quite attentive without being over bearing. Will definitely go back! read more

A great find in Hamilton. We ate here recently for the first time and definitely plan on coming back. Everything we ordered was very good and the service was great. We went for lunch when it wasn't very busy. read more

Awesome food! Cool atmosphere. Super friendly staff I will be back. Went on a Friday night it was busy we got sat quickly and got the fried bologna sandwich. It was so good! read more

This place is super cute and our service was awesome. Food and drinks came out fast. Drinks were great. I got a mimosa and my bf got a margarita. We ordered the meatloaf and the Nashville hot Mac and cheese. The food was just okay nothing special. The meatloaf was dry and the carrots were not cooked. The Mac and cheese seemed watery even though the chicken that was in the Mac and cheese had a super great taste. Good place for downtown Hamilton but lost some stars because of the food. I saw some good looking burgers so we may be back to give those a try read more

Great place, great food, great drinks! Took my daughters bf there who is just as picky as she is and he loved the food. The service is great and our server was on point!! read more

We decided to drop in on a Thursday after 5. The food was great! Drinks reasonable and all over feel of the place very nice. Hubby had the PoBoy with the Mac n cheese...delish! I had a special of chicken pot pie and salad with bourbon vinaigrette. Again very pleased with this Hamilton venue. Nice inside bar with cafe, outside seating and small intimate bourbon bar. Very nice. We'll definitely go back. read more

Continues to be one of my favorite places in town. Tried something different this time, had the Cob salad. Enjoyed it very much. Lettuce was sliced thin, so I didn't have to dig thru big pieces. Good blend of avocado, bacon and egg. The dressing is already blended on without it being a big puddle of soup. My wife tried the new dish, chicken and dumplings. It's made with pieces of biscuits for the dumplings, which I thought was ok. She didn't care as much, more of a traditionalist when it comes to comfort food! read more

The building is very nice inside and is extremely clean but there is limited space! The food is very delicious and there are many different options! Workers are really respectful and I would recommend Billy Yanks to anyone wanting a nice indoor meal. read more

Excellent food and service. I had a huge piece of fish with the fish and chips. Chips (fries) were thin and crispy. Amazing carrot cake.

Dinning floor is a bit too crowded and the tables are about the size of a folding card table. Food was good and prices were a little on the high side based on potions and quality though. I'll try it again when it's warmer weather to see if it's any better. read more

Finally made to Billy Yanks and we were not disappointed! We started with the high street nachos and we added a cup of chili which was a nice switch from the typical salsa. My husband got an old fashion and said it was a little sweet but was good. The billy burger was perfect! And the chicken club was right there with the burger, fresh and full of flavor. We topped our meal off with the cast iron cookie which was ooey gooey in the middle and slightly crisp around the edge topped with a mix of ice cream, whipped cream and chocolate drizzle. We came on a Friday night around 530 and had a 45 minute wait but ended up waiting 55 minutes, but it gave us time to walk around and check out all the cute mom and pop shops. The staff was pleasant and very attentive. Definitely going to become one of our regular spots ! read more

Their burgers are excellent and their deviled eggs are great. Only downside is parking but get beyond that you won't be disappointed.

The food was really good and the atmosphere is like an old western bar and I recommend the grilled chicken sandwich.

My husband is a huge bourbon lover and this place hit all the marks! Insane selection of bourbons (but also a full bar of liquors, wines, and beers), the food was amazing! The Brussel sprouts are the best ever! And our server, Matt, was friendly, helpful, and fast! Highly recommend! read more

Really enjoyed Billy Yanks. The pretzel bites with the pimento cheese was so good. I enjoyed my Impossible burger and the wife liked her Original Billy burger. Great service. I was full or I would have tried one of their desserts. Nice to have a place like this in downtown Hamilton. read more

Tasty salad for a late afternoon lunch... server was delightful and friendly. Just moved our son in across the river by the park and wanted something quick. Billy Yanks came thru! We will be back! read more

Really good food and great bourbon selection. Staff has always been helpful and friendly. Awesome atmosphere. The outside seating area is beautiful. Lost a star though cause parking is a nightmare. read more

Always seems busy- lots of good options on the menu. I've been there a couple times now and it has been delicious both times.

Their food is so good and the prices are good and the staff is so friendly and accommodating

I was in town visiting some family in Cincinnati Ohio and heard about this place from a good buddy of mine. This place did not disappoint. I got the Big Kahuna burger to eat! It was one of the best restaurant burgers I have ever had. Very moist and the flavors fused together perfectly. It was a recommendation by one of their great bartenders. The bartender also recommended a local beer that was on tap. He was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. He was also very personable to everyone sitting at the bar. Great atmosphere, even better food! If you are close to Hamilton, OH, stop in and get yourself a good meal and good service! read more

This was our first time trying out Billy Yanks and we were not disappointed! The service was great and the food was amazing. We had 8 people in our party and everyone liked what they ordered. We will definitely be back!! read more

Our favorite place to eat..the food is excellent. You'll spend the rest of your life comparing other cheeseburgers to the BILLY BURGER. My favorite is the monthly specials, the Sheppards Pie is amazing . Be sure to order the carrots , love those carrots , I order them every time we go. Try to save room for dessert, the carrot cake is the best I've ever had... read more

Great food! Fun atmosphere! Wish they were open for lunch but really enjoy when we can make it for dinner! read more

Sorry. Poor poor service. They threw a new server into a crowd. It took us 3 hours to get out of there. The assistant manager was no help, offered no assistance, and comped us nothing for the total mess up on their part. Pitiful experience. read more

The Billy's Shrimp app was delicious. My wife got the fried Bologna sandwich and I got the Nashville chicken sandwich with the grippos crusted Mac n cheese. All of it was soooo good! Deron the bartender is the best! Can't wait to go back. read more

All things good about this place, enjoy the food service and atmosphere. I would recommend this place to anyone...

Loud indoor dining. It took a while to get waited on, and food wasn't anything outstanding.

Food was delicious and came out very fast, even for a busy Friday night! Had the salmon BLT, original burger, and going back to Cali. All were great! read more

We went July 17 at about 7 PM. There were four adults and two small children. The team member at the door informed us it would be a fifty minute wait but probably closer to 40 minutes. We were strolling around, looking at things when we notice 38 minutes later we were second in line. Long story short at 90 minutes when we went back in to inquire the two team members at the greeter stand became very aggressive and rude, basically yelling at us telling us they were busy, shorthanded and they were doing the best that they could. We were finally seated at 9:20 and the waitress who waited on us was exceptional and the food was good . At no point during this did anyone apologize or do anything but act like we were bothering them. When we spoke to the man who identified himself as one of the owners, the following Tuesday, he stated that he was out of town, but he heard they had great sales that day. read more

My son bought gift cards for us of Christmas, and we stopped by and ate last week. Loved the decor! We had formerly been in the building when it was a paint and wallpaper store with an owner we called Groucho. What a wonderful surprise to see the beautiful room and seating. We ordered salads, fries and hamburgers. The 1/2 salad were very large, very delicious. and I think the greens were from 80 Acre Farms, another wonderful business in Hamilton. The burgers were giant, and the fries were awesome. Fresh, well presented, and delicious. I highly recommend to anyone coming to Hamilton read more
