    a bloody drink with olives
    Lacey B.

    This bar is not the same when Barb is not the bartender. Walking in and seeing her behind the bar makes the whole trip worth it. Love this place and barb! Best dive bar around. We drive all the way to snelling probably more than we should but it is well worth the drive!

    Best Bloody Mary in Merced County. Playing pool after drinks is a great way to enjoy a road trip to Snelling.

    It's a great little dive bar with a juke box, a pool table, and the best Bloody Mary you will ever find.

    This restaurant was a nice surprise along the road. The food was great! We had the fish and chips…read moreand burger

    I rate my experience 1 star, but I'm not going to rate the whole place 1 star, because it's always…read moretop-notch. I go here all the time, and I get five star experiences every time I go. I highly recommend anybody go here, BUT I HAVE TO SAY WHAT I HAVE TO SAY!!!!!!!!! I was there today, I do not know who the chef was (clearly not the usual one!!), but Angelica was working in the bar. I ordered my burger medium, and it was so far past well done, it was not even edible. It was dry and NOOOO!!! I always order grilled onions, and they have never once charge me for it. Today they charge me $.75 for four skinny strings of grilled onions and yet still put raw onions on my burger that I didn't want. I asked for extra pickles and did not get any extra. I ordered a glass of wine, they did not have any in the bar. Angelica went to the back and came back with a bottle of wine that was not chilled. It came right off the shelf, or at least that's what it tasted like. I had to fill the entire glass of wine with ice, and then it was watered down and was no good. If I did not take that burger to go, I would've sent the whole thing back. THEN! I pulled my salad out of the bag, it was in a teeny tiny bowl. When I eat the salad in the restaurant, it's in a big giant bowl. The salad in this little bowl was less than half of the salad I get had I eaten inside the restaurant. There is no way I will ever order to go food from old corner saloon ever again. I asked for extra lettuce, there was literally about 1/3 of the lettuce. I usually get in a regular salad when I order it inside the restaurant with my burger. Sad part is, and this could happen to anyone, if this was my first time eating at this restaurant, it would have been my last. There's no way I would've ever came back to a restaurant when they cannot get an order even close to right. #NotHappyAtAll and I just threw $47 in the trash. There is a 0% chance I will ever order "to go" food from there ever again, in fear that it will be a terrible order like it was just now. I don't have money to spare, and I literally threw $47 in the toilet today eating at old corner saloon. I could not be more disappointed.
