5 Stars for a great bad here in Gainesville, FL. This bar is awesome and I would highly recommend…read moreit to anyone in the Gainesville area. The beer is cold, the pool is fun and its the type of place you just can enjoy a drink with your buds and have fun! This place has become a favorite for locals and visitors! They also have a great Happy Hour as well. The prices here are the best! I love that you can get multiple drinks without breaking $20 bucks! I would keep coming here again and again and again! I highly recommend this place!

So, I had been waiting all day to watch the Montreal v. Buffalo playoff match…read more Montreal was up 2-1 in the series, and they usually don't get this far in the playoffs! So I was keyed up! I got my Publix hot and spicy wings and my Carolina bbq sauce, and all I needed was a beer and a screen. (Did you know you can bring your own food into Silver Q? You can get take-out, bring your own, or order delivery...yup) Anyway, there was a billards tournament going on, so when I asked the bartender to put it on the game, SHE PUT IT ON THE BIG SCREEN!! Wow!! Unfortunately, after watching the match and enjoying my spicy chicken and Yuenglings for THREE HOURS, my bartender took a break, and another bartender changed the channel, with 4 MINUTES LEFT IN THE GAME! It took the wind out of my sails! I walked up and told her, and asked her to change it back, but she got busy making drinks for other people, and so I just closed out my tab and left. Maybe next time, I'll go to a dedicated sports bar, and only come here, when I want to play pool...yeah, that's the ticket!

After reading some of the older reviews I was a little hesitant but the new owners have done a…read moregreat job to make this a fun and inviting spot. Smoking no longer allowed inside so you dont leave smelling like an ashtray, some new pool tables, well lit and music was on point as well (or you can take over the juke box and play what you like). For the smoker's, there is a nice little patio area to enjoy outside. Will def be back next time I'm visiting and would recommend to friends who live in the area.

I stopped in recently because I was in the mood for a divey bar experience and was astonished when I wasn't hit in the face with a cloud of smoke when I opened the door. It's a total game changer. Apparently they're under new ownership and they've cleaned up the inside and decor, and (obviously) there's no smoking anymore. The pool tables and the dart boards are high quality and the people working there are really nice and helpful. I'm looking forward to having a nice place to play pool on this side of town!

We started with a chicken quesadilla which was delicious and packed with huge chicken chunks. For my meal I ordered the eat and play combo wings and they were terrific. They were crispy underneath and the sauce was sweet and very flavorful. We also enjoyed happy hour beer, although I did not realize it was domestic beer only so my Modelo did not qualify, which was a small surprise. We did an hour of free game play and there was a really good variety of games, especially for a group of three. The game room had a large selection and everything felt well maintained. All of the staff we interacted with were pleasant and friendly. Overall we were really impressed with how much they offer, including catering and large event options. We will definitely be back again.

And we didn't want to eat fast food or at a chain restaurant. There was no one else in the large dining room so we decided to sit at the bar. You can't see the bar from the dining room as you must walk through a door. The bar was nice with pads along the edge and hooks underneath to hang your purse. The bartender was friendly and attentive. I ordered fried fish which came with hushpuppies and fries. My lunch was deliscious! The fish was fresh and there was the perfect amount of breading (not too much). The straw fries were hot and yummy. I only ate half and took the rest home for dinner. There was a huge outdoor patio in the back. And both the dining room and patio had stages for live music. This spot had dive vibes but was super clean (even the bathroom). I tasted my friends burger and it was fabulous! I wanted both my meal and my friends meal lol! I highly recommend you stop in and try SOS!

Finally asked a different girl and s guy tech came over and announced "There is a problem" no kidding.... We had to change lanes.
