I've always loved this bar. Have been fortunate enough to have met a lot of very cool people there. Many fun and long-lasting memories. There is something about the iconic Wonder Bar that is just special! A must on your list place.

This bar is HANDS DOWN my favorite in Reno. We stop here every time we're in town. I love the owner Kathy. Chris and TJ are awesome!! They are usually tending bar when we come in. The regulars welcome us wholeheartedly and I appreciate that in a dive bar. Dive bar etiquette is pretty simple. Don't be an A****** . thank you W for all the fun times!!

Wonder Bar is always a good time with friendly bartenders and hilarious regulars. The patio in the summer time is great and there's a 50/50 chance you'll come in during a BBQ or a cook-off contest. If you give a smoking bar a negative review for being a smoking bar, I wonder how many times you got dropped on your head as a child.

Visiting a friend in Reno, she brought me to her favourite hang out. It's now my favourite hang out and I want to pick it up and bring it home with me. The barkeeps were awesome, especially TJ. I felt like I'd known her for years. She made me feel so welcome and was very entertaining. There is a surprise walk out courtyard through the back. Charming and homey feel makes me want to return to Reno again, just to feel so at home in a bar. Cheers!

Love this Dive Bar. The staff and patrons are fun and friendly.

Wonder Bar is a true diamond in the rough. I've always enjoyed the customers as much as the staff, regardless of the review left by Tiffany S. What Tiffany forgot to mention was that her mother forgot to teach her simple manners, like saying "Excuse me" when she bumps into people...weird concept right?! So please, ignore the pathetic one star review by this lady who is attempting to hurt a locally owned business over her lack of manners. We love you Wonder Bar and can't wait for our next adventure with you.

Here's the thing. I love wonderbar, because I love the bartenders. The reason I'm giving such a low review is because of the patrons. We went there after a wedding near by and from the moment we walked in, people were immediately put off from us. They gave us looks and were rude. Rude isn't even an appropriate response. I can honestly say I will never step foot in the bar again because of the overwhelming response of unwelcomeness we received. We are good people, we paid for our drinks, and truly went with the intention of supporting a local bar. its unfortunate to say, but if you are looking for a local chill place, this is not it. Not because of the welcoming bartenders but because of the other assholes who go there.

Hot box in a telephone booth or a small vehicle? If so, you'll know what you're getting into when you enter this place. The exhaust isn't working or they like recycling the smoke. Most people are over 60 and not a place to bring a date, your mom, or any friends you intend to keep. Yes taco place next store, but who wants to eat a load of smoke with every bite. If you're a smoker, got kicked out of the other local bars then yes come here. Ryan's barVassar loungeZ's MidtownThere's plenty of options within walking distance.

Our experience of the wonder bar has been disrespectful from the bartender TJ and she made allegations that was unfounded tords One of the patrons that’s been a loyal customer to the bar for over two years there for we will not be returning to a bar where there bartender will cause trouble with there customers I have found it’s not a great place to go to have a drink and a peaceful evening out on the town.
