18 Best Bars near Atascadero

“Favorite Dive Bar in the central coast! Recommend checking it out“

“This place is great, my brother and I always come here for football games. Alcoholic drinks are good, you definitely won’t leave sober if you get any beer there lol. It’s on the more expensive side but the food is well worth it. I’ve tried a few different things here and I’ve never been disappointed or dissatisfied with anything. The servers I’ve come across are great.“

“The Tavern is a bar in Atascadero that is a popular hangout for pool playing and watching you favorite sports events. The brews on tap are great they offer great food. It is not your typical Smoky dive bar. It is clean and well run. We enjoyed hanging out here!“

“Not Just a Bar, A Place That Held Me

I walked in just before closing. First night in a new city, with a 3 a.m. bus to catch and nowhere to wait. I wasn’t looking for a drink, just somewhere to rest for a while.

This bar welcomed me anyway. No questions, no rush. Just great music, good people, and a soft kind of energy that made everything feel okay.

It wasn’t loud or flashy, it was warm. It felt safe. In a city I didn’t know, it gave me something simple but rare: a place to stay when I needed one, and a night that turned into a memory.

Not every bar leaves a mark. This one did.
One day, I’ll tell someone about the time I waited for a 3 a.m. bus, and how a bar made me feel at home for a few quiet hours.

Only one regret: I should’ve got the T-shirt that said, “It’s not a city. It’s a vibe.” It is, indeed!

Definitely the best bar in town.🫶🏻“

“Crimson Cue is the probably the best pool hall I've played and will be playing at in the central coast, service is just amazing everytime, the beer selection is great too you will not be left thirsty that's forsure, they also hire catering vendors to provide delicious food for their loving customers helping out and supporting small businesses. Highly recommend you take your shot on the 8 ball there.?“

“I’m always stoked for the fellows behind he bar. They offer fun chat, solid suggestions, and a solid demeanor.

And that’s on the “not a concert” nights. They’re even better on those.

One of the best in the county!“

“After days of drinking and tasting overpriced crushed grapes, it was a pleasant relief to go into a bar and not drink or eat overpriced anything. Not fancy, but good location close to town, friendly and cheerful service, has a pool table, music and a couple of dartboards that kept us entertained for hours. Not really a craft beer type of place, but a pint or two of 805, is ok in a pinch. Will certainly pay them a visit next time we are in town. TIP: They are open till 2:00 pm so good place for a nightcap and a last game of pool. If you found this review informative, please check the box below as I am trying to set a record. Thank you“

“While the service could have been more attentive (they missed out on a last one round of drinks because they didn't come back to our table), the atmosphere and duo singing that evening were both outstanding.
We would definitely go back.“

“The staff and owners always make you feel at home, like it's your first time here. We've been coming for years and the food/atmosphere is always consistent. We've never had a bad meal and most are over the top. Request Florentine style when ordering fish. You won't be disappointed. In this photo, we had blackened lingcod and beef stroganoff! Muy fantastico!“

“Dined here tonight. The food was delicious, food came to our table quickly and 2 male servers that helped us were so kind and accommodating. We ordered the shrimp tostada, fried tilapia plate, and an asada taco with rice and beans. All were super yummy and I loved the green avocado/cilantro salsa that they bring to the tableWe are Paso locals and are excited to frequent this establisment!“

“Outstanding service and food!“
