About Wild Bill Bar

Wild Bill Bar is a popular spot in Deadwood, known for its unique atmosphere and historical roots. The historic bar, where Wild Bill was shot in 1876, offers Whiskey and tasty sodas, and is wheelchair accessible. The friendly bartender, Yates, makes customers feel at home, taking time to chat and recommend great drinks. The bar is built on the same site as the original saloon that burned down a few years after the shooting, adding to its historical charm. Visitors can enjoy live music from an older gentleman and experience the lively, welcoming environment that makes this place special. During peak season, a line may form, but the wait is worth it. There is also a self-guided tour where guests can learn about Deadwood’s history, including the original street level and the events surrounding Wild Bill Hickock. Many visitors praise the bar for its friendly service, good wifi, and fun atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a drink. The bar also offers local beers like Wild Bill Mild and Madame Margarette, and the whiskey is based on 1876, with no Jack, Jim, or Tito’s served. Dog-friendly and full of history, Wild Bill Bar is a must-see in Deadwood.

Oh my did we have the best time at this bar. Not only is the best History given, Margarit is so fun and has great bartenders!!! 🍻 we’ll be back!

Loved the atmosphere. In such a tourist town, you fee right at home. We were there over the weekend and had Mead for the first time. An older gentlemen was playing live music (wonderfully might I add) and the bartender was so kind and was a wealth of knowledge. Before going downstairs to tour where Wild Bill was shot and killed he gave our group and the other group of people all the background knowledge on what happened. And told us about the original street level of Deadwood...read full review

We had such a good night at this bar during our holiday from the UK, nine months later our own little cowgirl was born!
