8 Best Cocktail Bars near Olympic Valley

“came for drinks to warm us up in the cold winter Tahoe. we were seated promptly outside at a firepit table. I love the firepit because it keeps you nice and toasty outside but it is a bit of a nuisance being in the middle of the table. makes it difficult if you're sharing plateswe ordered just some chips and salsa and some drinks to go with. I had the mexican coffee and I'm warning you right now - she is STRONGGGG. that tequila really permeates and the warmth both from the drink and the alcohol had me even forgetting i was outsidemy companions bought the fish bowl gnar-garita and split it between 3 people. probably would be easier with 4 but if you're 3 people looking for a good time, get that fish bowl!!!“

“Date of Visit: 4/20/2024 We visited the Six Peaks Grille for dinner during our stay at the Everline Resort & Spa. We went to Alpine Meadows on the day, and after relaxing at the pool area, we changed and came to the Six Peaks Grille. We were sat by the window, with the view of the pool area, mountain and the valley. All the dishes and wine and cocktail options are made with distinct local ingredients. The server was nice too! Explained in detail about the menu and offered a few recommendations. Palisades Punch $16 I ordered the cocktail to pair with my dinner. Palisades Punch was made from Grey Whale Gin, muddled blackberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Very refreshing with the taste of berries and lemon. Highly recommended! 2018 Willa Kenzie Estate Pinot Noir $20 Husband got the Pinot Noir from Williamatte Valley The glass has complex aroma with notes of black cherry, cranberry sauce, and orange peel. Supple tannin and a long finish. Pan Seared Diver Scallops $46 I ordered the pan seared diver scallops with three huge scallops on top of corn risotto, artichoke and chili vinaigrette on the side. 28 Day Dry Aged Ribeye 14oz $66 Husband got the dry aged ribeye. Medium was a little overcooked. There four sauces to choose from, husband got the Garlic Confit Butter that paired well with the steak. Seasonal Foraged Mushroom $12 On the side we got the foraged mushroom. Mushroom were salty but chewy! Chocolate Lava "S'more" Cake $14 Highly recommend the S'more cake dessert! On top of the vanilla ice cream there were sprinkle of graham cracker. On the side there was a chocolate lava cake, and toasted marshmallow. All ingredients of the S'more were on the plate, with a nice twist and good presentation.“

“Really enjoyed the Brussel Sprouts and the soup of the day being a Guinness Beef Stew. Great beer selection but food is a bit limited. Almost everything is super cheesy. Service was really friendly and knowledgeable but got left alone for pretty long periods of time when we needed water/refills and the check. Still a really cool spot.“

“Absolutely delicious! The service, food, and drinks were phenomenal! Why not 5 stars, because they dont have high chairs which is a complete bummer since Truckee is a place a lot of families come to visit with their children and don't have child care to go without them. I hope they consider making this change as I would definitely come every time I'm in town if it was more comfortable for children to join.“

“This place is a solid. Good food, good service. My salad had pears and candied pecans. Loved the taste, it all blended together perfectly. The Alaskan Halibut is the signature dish. The fish was a bit dry, but the lemon sauce made up for that. We topped it off with a bottle of Malbec. Altogether, a good meal. The menu had some good choices, the short ribs and pork chop looked very good. One of my friends had the short ribs and enjoyed them. The waiter was a bit of a cut-up. He had a young daughter with him, about 4 years old. The waiter told us his wife was at the bar. Then, little Ruth said "drinking water". Quiet place, good for a date night or a good meal with friends. Recommended.“

“Up until covid hit, I loved playing the Sunday night Open Mic here. The sound system was first rate, the crowd was always enthusiastic and friendly, and the bartender was terrific. The atmosphere is awesome and I am just waiting for the Open Mic to resume!“

“This is our go to burger stop when in Tahoe City. Everything is pretty much haus made. The service is usually nice and welcoming. The ambiance is a chill bar vibe, but children are welcome. The sweet potato fries are delicious, the wings are yummy, burgers are a must try, and they have haus made specials.“
