“Great place to play and buy board games!“

“Not just Axe throwing.. many don’t know that the basement has Cornhole, beer pong, basketball, jenga FauN times!!“

“The cuisine is on point— octopus, 2 pastas, and chicken were perfectly prepared… wine list is a solid B… our Server was absolutely amazing… really can’t ask for better if you’re dining in the area… remarkable chicken is just that— remarkable

Parking: They validate for the garage across the street… nice amenity!“

“So much fun and the drinks are amazing! I recommend the espresso martini and the mint cookie drink with an extra shot!“

“We come here weekly for trivia, as well as occasionally to meet up with friends or even get some work done when I need a change of scenery working from home. KJ has been the best bartender whenever we’re in. She makes you feel welcomed when she greets you, is always showing new comers how to use the card system to pour their drinks, and is attentive and friendly! We love the village well and especially love KJ!“

“By far the best Irish pub in all of Reno. Great traditional Irish atmosphere and drinks. Wonderful people that work and visit there… you always feel like family. Don’t go anywhere else for an Irish pub in Reno.? (this video was on St. Patrick’s Day. It’s usually more chill and cool)“

“The atmosphere with chandeliers, small tables for romantic talks, or the comfy couch settings for larger groups is amazing. I had the Lavender Lemon Drop, which I highly recommend. It was delicious! The drinks we got had tiny, real dried roses, which added such a great touch! I was so impressed with the Tavern!“

“First time at press start today and the owner is incredible. Amazing selection at the bar, pizza slices and snacks. I didn’t know I had a pinball addiction until I was driving home and already wanted to go back.“

“Stopped by for a cocktail while visiting Reno. Bartender was attentive and knowledgeable. Started with a Daiquiri of course, perfectly balanced. Made a great Sazerac when I asked for a follow up cocktail. Stop by and have a drink you, won't be disappointed. Locals we nice too.“

“My dinner is so amazing I had the Truffle and macaroni and cheese with mushroom amazing I had I'm eating the baked chicken right now off the wall experience so far the service the clientele the atmosphere is unexpectedly amazing and I got to say this is the reason why I keep coming back food is amazing the people are top-notch they are very professional everybody from water the bread girl and the bussers asking if I need my table wiped off and if I needed another towel another fork or spoon or taking away my side dish I could never ask for anything more especially on my birthday today they made my birthday just outstanding. Monica the hostess is amazing she knows my name and just awesome the maitre d remember is my face and name so I'm just astounded and even the bread girl Austin made my day and remembering my face and name kudos to the staff at Roxy's Eldorado in Reno Nevada“

“Noah was outstanding! Just passing through the area and popped in for the first time. Experimented with a few cocktails as I’m not familiar with them (I usually only drink IPA’s or Cognac straight). Noah educated me with not only the history and background of the drinks but also all the ingredients as well. Now I am very familiar with the “Paper Plane”, “Side Car” and “Gin & Tonic”. Great bar with a very relaxing vibe and atmosphere. Thank You!“

“Every drink was too notch! The spirits were explained as well. Cant go wrong. This is a must! And a super neat venue and extremely welcoming. Make this a to do on your list!“

“without a doubt, the best vibe in town. Travis Rose always keeps the atmosphere fresh and brings in some of the best entertainment. been to a few of the other venues around town but the dead ringers definitely the best.“

“Best dive bar in Reno! Friendly Bartender, fun locals, great pool players!“

“Great bar and amazing drinks!!! I will be back ❤️“

“Perhaps the biggest selection of beer on tap in Reno. Look for the exceptional blueberry and vanilla beers! They don’t have food but they make up for it in selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. The atmosphere is bright and open, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. If you love beer, and you love variety, you’ll love Beer NV.“

“Good food, friendly staff, hole in the wall vide - which I, personally, enjoy, but may not suit everybody. The gaming is a bit outdated, but I did win more than I spent, so I can't say that I didn't enjoy playing. They appeared to have a great beer selection, too. My southwestern bbq burger was really good.“

“A fun place to meet friends!“

“LOVE Red rock! It's a cute 2 story bar that has personality. There is provocative local art on the walls for sale, and I always want to buy one. The best fear of Red Rock is its downstairs pool and dart room. I've met fine friends and new acquaintances hanging out at Red Rock. Give it a try!“

“Looking for a bar with mostly 20 year olds who are open minded and non judgemental? Come here. Want vibes similar to sitting around a campfire talking with friends? Come here. I haven't been to many bars in Reno, but of the ones I have gone to, Z-Bar is by far the best. It is my go to for a good time.“

“Came in for coffee and may have just had the best coffee of my life. Lavender/Honey/Oat pour over by Sarah! Absolutely my new favorite coffee place in Reno.“

“First night in Reno we lucked out and found the Brewer's Cabinet! Excellent selection of craft beers on site (tap beers and some are available in cans) and on this night they had a trivia contest and a food truck. Lots of other things happening here, inside and outside seating available. The staff was great and we loved the beers and food!!“

“Midtown Spirits Wine & Bites is THE BEST I have ever been to. My friend is a friend of the owners, so since we were leaving Lake Tahoe to go to the airport we stopped by to check it out!!! This is the only place I've ever been able to order a charcuterie board. I totally loved it. We had so many different and very pleasing bites, perfect for cocktails and bourbon and whiskey and cocktails. They had Karin Denise performing, she and I have not seen one another in many years. I met the owners Anthony and Amanda, they acknowledged everyone that came in. Loved the decor. I wish I could have stayed until Sunday, when they have live Jazz. I will be returning soon.“

“Such a great local hangout. We needed it!!!!“

“LOVED this bar! 34 beers on tap, so you have "endless" choices and plenty ways to find a new favorite, each time you visit. Full bar and excellent staff! Happy hour, trivia night, and they have 7 TVs to watch whatever sports you want (NFL right now!). Atmosphere is classy/casual and honestly, if this place served food, it would be perfect. No wonder their Google profile says, "It's probably the best bar in the world.". I believe it.“

“Only been there once but loved the casual feel of the place. Big comfy sofas and really good burgers served there too. I’d stop in again when next in Reno.“

“Fantastic food I had the Cowboy Cut steak it was cooked to perfection Erika had Chicken Piccata Our server Bonnie was great she was on us from the word go very timely and kind! I highly recommend this place…“

“I recently moved to Reno and am quite surprised that there aren't a lot more restaurants or bars with views of the river and/or mountains. There's only a very small handful of places downtown you can actually see the river from for example and it's completely ludicrous to me that 50 S Virginia St on the River (North of Pioneer Center) they put a parking lot between the building and the river.

But I digress, I managed to find this gem of a place with a rooftop bar. You can't see the river of course but it has a nice view of the surrounding neighborhood and Downtown area. Bartender was very friendly, made great drinks. It was uncrowded on a Saturday night at 7 as most people apparently come for the DJ later. So if you want a laid back atmosphere, you can hang out in the early evening and if you want some night life you can come later.

They do not have food so bring take-out from your favorite restaurant if you want to eat. If they at least had small bar food menu with some good bar food I'd give it 5 stars but the lack of food and the view being nice but not spectacular, this is a solid high 4 stars.“

“I came here for the first time tonight. Everything was wonderful. The vibe was nice, and so was the music. The bartender was very friendly, knowledgeable and gave great recommendations. The friends I came with also enjoyed themselves. We will definitely be back! I highly recommend checking this place out :)“

“Such a great local hangout. We needed it!!!!“

“It's the shizzle nizzle! First bar I went to when i moved Reno, been going back for the past 16 years!“

“Had a blast playing pool and shuffleboard with family. Awesome bartender! Incredible view!“

“like being at a Hogwarts-style pub complete with a library of old books and board games. And of course, the drinks are fantastic! gotta try the chocolate cake shots -they are the bomb!“

“Had a great time coming in a couple weeks ago. Wide variety of alcohol & specialty cocktails. Bartender Sam made my visit well worth it, had a great conversation about the old classic movie “Smokey and the Bandit” and taught me a few things when comes to which spirits benefit each other to help me stock up my own mini bar at home. Thanks, see you guys soon!“

“Fun and comfortable atmosphere. Great people and nice bartenders. Khesandra, sweet and good with everyone. She has a eclectic taste in music always good tunes on the juke box. She also runs a pool tournament every Friday night at 7pm. She works Tuesdays, Thursday and Friday day shift and Alan very funny and good people. He works Sunday and Monday nights.“

“Omar is the best!!!!!! I heard about Fat Tuesday from Tik Tok and was so excited when I saw it in the casino at GSR. Omar gave me samples and suggestions and was so friendly and personable. So was his manager! This drink and the entire experience chatting with them and trying drinks made my whole day!“

“the environment and music are great the bartender nick has some great jokes for an open minded person whatever you do stop by give them a chance“

“Happy Birthday Tiger Tom!!“

“Dive dive dive dive dive dive“

“I love this place. It is a great space to hold functions or meet a friend for a cocktail. The space is clean and contemporary, and all of the bartenders are attentive. I have spent birthdays (including my own), work functions, weekend nights out and about, and easy visits with friends in this bar. You can also bring food in from the neighboring establishments. <3 Mona“

“The garlic parm wings are to die for!“

“Server was very attentive. She noticed me and when I asked for a menu, gave it. When I was ready to order (body language) she noticed and got my order and we checked out right away. There is lots of seating. It's an island type bar with seating all the way around it in a rectangular shape. The selection of craft and on tap were great.“

“Quaint " dive" bar. Pleasant bartender,In fact, very pleasant bartender. A few bar top poker machines, 1 pool table & a juke box. What more can ya ask for?!? Oh yes, the purple bathroom was clean. However, no lock on the stall door. I assume mostly regulars around there, and they're not top worried about privacy ?“

“I had the best time!!! I am an aesthetician and my clients name is Loren she runs this bar I went in to visit her and oh my goodness I had the best time the ambience was great Benji was behind her coming in after her and man oh man the service was incredible he definitely knows how to pump up a crowd and keep it going from what Loren already started. I definitely will be coming back here I can’t believe she has been my client this long and it has taken me this long to come in I’ll definitely be back!!! Loren thank you!!! FTP. also Super excited for the new locations because that is right by my house ! and they have 805 Cerveza on tap that’s a huge win!!!“

“Nice locals place. machines were nice, hit 2 7/8 spots. Page the bartender was very friendly. glad this place is just down the street.“

“This is a great midtown bar with tons of charm, a very cool vibe and a ton of fun to drink at especially with a group of friends. Service is friendly and they have tons of beers and liquor to choose from and even a few that are hard to come by anywhere including brews like Pliny the Elder. Gaming is available at the bar but they also have a pool table and tons of seating outside in the patio and it's where my friends and I prefer to chill on a warm summer day. While there isn't a ton of parking in the lot behind the establishment, there is street parking available and plenty more across the street. Of course, there are tons of places to dine at and within a short walk in just about any direction.

Parking: While there isn't a ton of parking in the lot behind the establishment, there is street parking available and plenty more across the street.“

“Amazing venue for local musicians and great staff. Come out and support live music scene.“

“Great dive into this one!“

“Recommended by a local, we loved this somewhat hidden retro arcade bar. The food was amazing, bartenders great, and games all working. Did I mention they have great drinks? They had a great variety of ciders, beers, and made custom cocktails that were delicious.“

“Had fun playing corn hole“
