I was looking for a new spot to grab a drink, get some good food, and just hang out somewhere with a good atmosphere. I came across Will Call after reading some reviews and decided to check it out...really glad I did. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by Trevor, who was bartending and is also one of the owners. Super nice guy, very personable and welcoming. He gave me some great food recommendations and they have a really good drink selection. Their happy hour is also definitely worth checking out with specials on both drinks and food. The vibe of the place is awesome. There's plenty of room whether you want to sit at the bar, grab a table or booth, and they even have a back room where they do live music, comedy and different events depending on the night. The whole place was clean too, and yes, I absolutely judge a bar by its bathrooms. Everything was clean and well kept. The rest of the staff was great as well. Bianca, the other bartender, was awesome and made the experience even better. Overall, Will Call checked all the boxes for me. Good atmosphere, good drinks, good food, great service and just an easy place to hang out and enjoy yourself. Definitely recommend checking it out. I'll absolutely be back! read more

Always a good spot to drop in for an affordable drink or some Wings. They run a daily happy hour during the days as well read more

Solid spot! I was walking around the Deep Ellum area with a bunch of coworkers and we decided to stop in here to grab some drinks. We ordered directly from the bar, which had standard service. The vibes were pretty casual and we all hung around having a nice time for a bit. Not sure what they have for a food menu, since we just did drinks. That being said, there's plenty of good BBQ in the area, so I'd probably stick to just drinks for this place. read more

Just a simple appreciation post for the best cheesesteak in Dallas and I've had many! Been coming to Deep Ellum for years. We've drank at Will Call too many times. Finally decided to eat here and everyone's telling me how good the food is here and no one talks about it. Well they were 100% right. Had the cheesesteak and eggs with extra meat cheese peppers mushrooms and just wow! My wife, who doesn't particularly enjoy cheesesteaks, said it's the best one she ever had OUTSIDE of Philly. Oh and the wings are phenomenal too! Just showing some love! read more

The wings were good but my French fries were cold and there were no servers coming to check on me.

Fun divey type place. We had a great time drinking ice cold beer and munching on chips and queso. Bartenders were terrific, friendly. They filled us in on the neighborhood and what to do. Lots of college kids on this day and age, very lively. read more

We came here with friends for happy hour. What great energy from the patrons, especially if you're looking to catch a sporting event on one of the many TVs. We decided to enjoy the cool weather on the patio. It wasn't clear whether a server would come outside so we ordered from the bar. The bartender was friendly. The menu is mostly bar food and, without a server, we weren't inspired to try any of their dishes. With so many options in Deep Ellum, I'm not sure I would go out of my way to come back. read more

Food was delicious: Wings were perfectly crispy and hot. Fries were just as good. Our bartender Nova was awesome with fast service and great recommendations for drinks! We went on a Friday night so it was pretty lively with a DJ and NBA playoffs- even so, a really great time. Will definitely go back read more

Really enjoyed my visit. Everyone was pleasant. I would come back to this place again and again

We popped into Will Call to wait out the rain before the (delayed) Kesha concert and ended up having an unexpectedly amazing time. First of all--Wednesday wing special? Say less. We each got $1 wings--5 Zang and 5 Honey Chipotle--and they were honestly so good I'd come back just for those. Huge shoutout to the bartenders and Big Bill for taking such good care of us. The vibe was right, drinks were good, and they even changed the music to a Kesha playlist to get us hyped for the show. Will for sure be back! read more

Really great experience at Will Call Bar. The drinks are well-made, the service is prompt and attentive, and the overall vibe is lively and comfortable. It's a fantastic, highly dependable 4-star spot to grab a drink and watch a game or hang out with friends. read more

Bianca was very personable and friendly with our party of five. I ordered the Farmhouse Salad and was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion size. My friend really enjoyed his Tejas Cheesesteak he commented on how juicy and delicious it was. We'll definitely be back to try more and the wings too. I heard they were fire too read more

Had my wife's birthday celebration here and it was hands down amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel like VIP's. The owner, JR, made some tasty recommendations from his menu and they were superb. The wings are the highlight of the menu, followed by the crack fries! Music was excellent. Vibe was even better! read more

Continuing my catching up of reviews from our trip to Dallas. This low key bar is located in Deep Ellum and attracted us with it's really cute Christmas lights outside. Not sure if they usually do that year round, but we loved it so we went inside. It's a smaller bar but plenty of seating and whatnot. We grabbed a booth. They also have food too but since we had just eaten, we stuck with just ordering some drinks. I got a tequila mule and it was delish. Our waitress was awesome and checked in with us a lot which was great. We also had some mixed shot too which was pretty good. They played a mix of all kinds of music which I loved. Country, rock, pop, r&b... it sounded like the hacked my playlist, which is probably why I loved it so much. They did have a stand for the DJ but there wasn't one I'm assuming because it was earlier. But definitely is probably a vibe when there's a DJ. I'd definitely come back and hang out at this bar again if we come back to Dallas anytime soon. read more

Amazing wings. Vibes are very divebar-esque but the wings are delicious. Zang is buffalo and lemon pepper and our favorite. read more

Stopped by this empty bar in Deep Ellem Friday afternoon for a few rounds with friends and family. The service was just okay. I ordered a frozen Bellini and it was pretty blah. My friends and I requested Don Julio Anejo twice and the first time we were served Blanco shots and didn't correct the error. Second time we specified Anejo again and one drink had to be remade. With plenty options in the area I'm not likely to return. read more

Holy hell this place is DELICIOUS. Came here on a recommendation from a friend. We split the steak and egg cheesesteak, the Pickle fries, and wings (recycled rub and zing). The food was out of this world delicious - the cheesesteak was hands down the best we've ever had with perfectly charred meat. The Pickle fries were perfectly crisp and flavorful. The recycled rub wings were my favorite - HUGE and salty/Sweet. On top of all that, the staff is so friendly, helpful with recommendations, and fast. Will definitely be back! read more

This is the best place to hang out in Deep Ellum! They have an infinity jukebox, great bartenders, and the recycled rub wings are what my dreams are made of! Can't wait to come back. read more

Just got denied entrance with a service animal by the manager Bill. We will be reporting this establishment. This is not an emotional support animal. This is against the American Disability Act. Disgusting. ***I am changing my review to 5 stars after the owner reached out to me personally to apologize and offer to make it right. I appreciate the time and apology. Kudos to this restaurant read more

Went on a Saturday during art fest and wasn't super packed thank goodness, we were able to get a booth. Wings and fries were great. The service was wonderful. Will definitely stop by again. 10/10 read more

Great place to go to if you're looking for a bar that's chill with good drinks and food. The food selection is not big but I always go for the wings and the crack fry's. It's seat your own self so keep that in mind if you're looking for someone to seat you. At night you do have to show ID to get in. Con is parking but that's like anywhere in deep ellum, I normally park at the parking lot right near good latimer and main and just walk. Parking was around $5 read more

Great spot, great staff, great wings & pickle fries! Big Bill & Trevor were awesome. Our very-last-minute "Philly Cheesesteak & Eggs" to-go was knee-buckling good & should not be missed! If they'd still been open, I would've walked right back to eat another one of those! read more

We decided to venture over to Will Call Bar for lunch. A very eclectic restaurant with black wallpaper on the ceilings and a really cool drum set as a light fixture. We ordered the Buffalo Ranch Fries to share which were pretty tasty. And for our lunch entrée the The Philly which comes with shrooms and bell peppers. The cheesesteak was pretty good...over all we had a good experience. Parking is $10 for 2 hours, you put your cell phone number in and the machine will text you 15 min. before it expires. read more

Our group visited Will Call and had an absolutely incredible experience! The music, vibe, FOOD and drinks were all top notch!! Definitely the most upscale bar food I have had in YEARS!!! read more

All the staff is amazing as are the drinks, food & atmosphere. Scratch kitchen, all the food is made in house and you can definitely taste it! Voted best wings in Dallas, the recycle rub is my personal favorite since it's a flavor totally unique to them that you can't get anywhere else. But don't forget to try the sandwiches too. Fun flavorful twists on cheesesteaks that are to die for & the best Cuban I've ever had. I've tried the whole menu and haven't had anything I don't love. read more

A few friends were in town so we wanted to check our DE. The lines were long for the more popular places so we tried this place. We ordered food and waited for an hour! The food never came out. The server never returned. A manager came over but he was just the bouncer at the door. He went by the name of Arthur. Arthur wasn't accommodating or helpful. Since we were already charged for everything he claimed to void the fee but he didn't. The music is so loud that it's hard to communicate to anyone. I now see why there wasn't a wait to get in. Enter at your own risk. read more

We were the ONLY people in there on a Saturday night and we got kicked out bc I threw ice over my own shoulder. Not at the Dj at all, we were talking to him all night and all the sudden he didn't like the music we requested and kicked us out. It was absurd. It was empty in there for a reason, do not recommend. Terrible service from everyone there. read more

Best wings I've ever had & I've been trying them all the south & east coast for 40 yrs. My 2 favorite were Recycled Dry Rub (their recipe)& Japanese Glaze. Perfectly prepared, with a nice crunch & tender meat ! Service was great too & friendly. We were there today, 7/5/24 for lunch & that Chef was amazing ! Freshest salad as well. This place should be full every time the doors open. Go ! Casual attire but I have the feeling they'll welcome anyone read more

My friend was visiting Dallas, and I wanted to show him around Deep Ellum. We were planning on going to a rooftop bar, but there was a HUGE line, so we just went to Will Call instead. It's got good vibes and good music, but after about 10 minutes, they turned up the volume WAYYYY too high, and we could barely hear each other. I had to basically yell at my friend across a small table, as we were trying to catch up. I got their house cabernet, and we split the egg roll appetizer. Our waitress had recommended the egg rolls, but they were not very satisfying - very greasy and not worth the price. I likely won't be back to this bar, unfortunately. read more

Ordered: Pickle Fries Wings (Garlic Buffalo and Lemon Pepper) Mexican Mule Three of us were visiting Dallas for a girl's weekend and we stopped at Will Call for dinner and drinks on a Thursday night. The service, wings, and drinks were really great, but the star of this visit was the extremely unique pickle fries. These fries are served with a berry cherry ketchup, it has to be the weirdest combo I've ever seen but WOW do you have to try it. Oddly tasty and it makes me want to try dipping an actual pickle into some fruit jelly. read more

EH.. disappointed. They had Will Call on the list for bars participating in the St Pats Bar Crawl. After looking at the pictures my group was excited to stop here. Bouncer was great spirits at the entrance. Walked in and got drinks from the fast bartenders. The place was gorgeous inside with a rustic feel to it. All of our drinks tasted watered down from the first sip. I always said you could never mess up a Jack and Coke.... This place did. I think the atmosphere is good and the lady tending to our table was adorable. If they could improve on their drinks I'll be back for sure with a 5star rating. read more

Great Atmosphere. We stumbled on this joint our last night in town. They had live music provided by Colton Blue. He entertained the crowd with a variety of cover and original songs. He throws down on the guitar, and his vocals are on point. If you have not heard of him, search Apple Music. You'll be glad you did. Dayna took care of our orders and provided exceptional customer service. She made sure our glasses were never empty. If ever back in Dallas, I will definitely go back. read more
