Ones of the neatest and friendliest little local water holes in Carson. The staff is always super friendly and the patio is amazing during the warmer months.

This is one of the most fun places to drink in Carson City and it has a great local vibe that I absolutely love! It really is the kind of place that is easy to miss being that it's located off the main drag but that's part of what makes it so cool. It's like you're imbibing in a secret hideout meant for you and your friends. Inside the Tap Shack, there's plenty of seating at the bar but there are also high tops along the wall that make it easier to hang out and chat with friends. Of course, there's plenty of seating outside and a lot of fun to be on a nice summer evening. Drinks are reasonably priced, the service here is super friendly and if you follow them on Facebook, they'll let you know when live music and or food trucks will be there. I really can't say enough about how much I enjoy this place and whether you're a local or just looking for an enjoyable evening as you pass through town, I would highly recommend that you give it a try as well.

Great little bar with a great outdoor patio area. We love it when they do the live music outside in the lot across from the bar during the warmer months.

Peyton Place of Carson City. The owner is extremely rude and will treat you poorly if she doesn't like you. Don't ever put your drinks on tab because you will be overcharged and accused of not paying your bill. Beware of "security" pulling a gun on you!

Imagine walking into our second living room at The Tap Shack, where every visit is like a reunion with family. Walt and Sandra, the heart and soul of this place, greet us like long-lost friends and keep the good times rolling with fantastic music every Wednesday and weekend.

The food truck scene is a culinary adventure, offering everything from gourmet burgers to tantalizing tacos. Inside, the gaming area buzzes with excitement, but thanks to the no-smoking policy, the air is always fresh.

Stepping out onto the patio feels like stepping into a picture-perfect day, complete with sunshine, good vibes, and even our furry companions are welcome to join in the fun. The Tap Shack isn't just a bar—it's a sanctuary where we can dance, laugh, and create unforgettable memories. Raise a glass to The Tap Shack, our home away from home!

I am a tavern person from Las Vegas, and this bar is very cool. Great atmosphere, EV who performs there is very good as well, reminds me of Tommy Rocker. Drinks are very low priced, you cannot go wrong with this bar.

I was only there for a short time trying to see the boxing match between Haney/Garcia but it was one of the most hospitable times I've had in my life. Sandra (co-owner) went out of her way to accommodate us in only a Carson city person would do. A food truck readily available to feed the drinking crowd. A band was playing in the back so well I thought it was a record, and my only regret is that I heard about this spot earlier in my trip and that didn't have more time. During my whole time there I was floored with the hospitality of ALL the Carson city establishments. I look forward to visiting again sometime in the future, and I definitely look forward to spending more time at the Tap Shack.

Small local dive bar with great music. Love the outdoor seating. And they have heaters for those chilly night! Great staff, friendly guests, drinks are well made and fairly priced. They don't have food, but no problem having food delivered. New owners have been there 1 year. Great job so far!
