    Frosé All Day
    Danielle S.

    Husband and I came for a few drinks on Sunday Funday. Very cool place and the bartender was wonderful. We started with the Kiwi Be Friends and Capybara, but finished with the Consigliere and the Frosé All Day. Everything was excellent and we will be back again for great drinks and good vibes.

    I was so excited to to come to this place for the bloody Mary that everybody raves about. Four of us walked in and sat down. Only 2 other people present . Arrived at 11:10 am . Server / bartender never approached us . We sat there and tried to make contact but she ignored us . Very disappointed. Money walked right out the door .

    Sleek, homely, and stylish, Chapel Tavern stands among the best bars in Reno. If you sit at the bar, when you buy a drink, they sometimes give you a tarot card coaster. The designs are cool, and they have all these different versions. Quite classy. Another time I went, I didn't know what drink to get. I asked the bartender if he could make me any drink he wants. The bartender makes one of his favorite drinks, which was this option called Zona Rosa, a drink that hasn't been on the menu for around 10 years. I thought that was very cool that he just pulled a defunct recipe out of the bag. Very good customer service. I love the Zona Rosa! I don't think it's for everyone. It has a very earthy, beet-like taste to it. It maintained some sweetness that beets usually have (I don't think the drink actually has beets either), but definitely not to the extent of other sweet cocktails. Its taste really cut the alcohol, so the experience was very smooth.

    I came here mid week to meet up with a few friends. The roll up door to the outside was open which made it a little less crowded. The drinks were great, but the noise level was so high that we only stayed for one drink and moved on to a quieter location. There are other bar locations that have more space to sit and are arranged in a way to be able to converse with fellow guests.

    The best Bloody Mary ever...
    S C.

    Then we went to Chapel Tavern where I experienced probably the best Bloody Mary that I have ever had. It included a grilled cheese (which was delicious), a little smoky sausage, peppers, olives, green bean, asparagus, and generous amount of perfectly cooked and seasoned bacon... and the actual Bloody Mary was amazing as well. The bar tender was extremely friendly and the place was very warm and inviting.

    We always stop at the Chapel every time we visit Reno, All the drinks are - just delicious All the bartenders are friendly and pay attention to detail, the drinks are specially crafted I recommend you try it at least one time and of course you'll fall in love with this place

    Reminds me of a speakeasy because it's dark inside, hard to find at night, has a random red door, and you can't really tell if it's open or not. They have a pretty extensive spirits and alcohol list and very beautiful well-lit bar filled with a bunch of bottles until you reach the ceilings. The bartenders are very friendly, service is great. There is some street parking and a small lot behind it. My only gripe is that there is no hot water in the bathrooms or seat covers and it was 20 degrees at night! Super freezing but overall a great experience I came back the best day for this hot drink which reminds me of what I think butter beer from Harry Potter would taste like. Pretty dope atmosphere with good vibes from everyone I will return when in Reno again.

    This place is super cute! The beer was delicious, and the bartender was friendly and welcoming. I'm excited to come back and try the food next time!

    Heidi was so amazing!!! I've been here a few times and she always remembers me, provides excellent service and really makes it such a great experience!! I love her! We love you!!! -Paighton and Devin

    Thai Ball
    Griffin B.

    Been a hot minute since I've been here, but I had the occasion to swing by Chapel Tavern a couple times in the last week. And yeah, this remains a place I highly recommend to come, hang out, and have a drink or two. First off, I really enjoy the building itself and decor. Really pleasant vibe, and also with both a cool front deck and a very nice little back patio. Parking may be an issue, as their shared lot is rather small, but there are plenty of street spaces in the surrounding neighborhoods. I also appreciate that these guys stay open quite late. I had to wait in town to head to the airport, and it was very refreshing to have a late night libation spot that wasn't just a dive bar. As for the drinks on offer, they have tons to choose from. With an entire wall of bottles, they stir up pretty much anything you like. I had an Old Fashioned, which was honestly just alright. But trying out one of their house specialties, the Thai Ball, that was pretty darn surprising, and outstanding. They also have a couple beer and wine choices, too. Plus, since the last time I was here was around the Holidays last year, I would be remiss if I didn't mention the seasonal eggnog they do each year, as that is incredible stuff. Prices seem to hover in the $12-15 range for most cocktails. And the service is very friendly and usually prompt, but can get a bit backed up during some busier hours. All in all, I think Chapel Tavern remains a place in Midtown I highly recommend for anyone who wants a decent drink. Good booze, good atmosphere. Really what more could you want.

    We got into Reno last night and met friends at Chapel Tavern. As soon as we walked in, I knew we had chosen the correct bar. The music and ambience were on point. Sam was our bartender, he was very welcoming and immediately made us feel at home. I have enjoyed libations at some of the best bars around the country and Chapel Tavern did not disappoint. From the barrel aged solara Boulevardier to the seasonal cocktails, everything was delicious. Sam's hospitality was definitely the cherry on top. He made our first night in Reno a memorable experience and we will definitely be visiting Chapel Tavern every time we are back in Reno. Cheers

    A delight for the senses, esp if you like people and alcohols. Excellent conversation from the owner and the patrons.

We arrived around 5:30 PM on a Saturday. The joint was nearly empty aside from a couple at the bar. Plenty of seating for our large group in the large, comfy couches. They also have cool built-in seating around the perimeter of the bar, though not nearly as comfortable as the vintage furniture. The menu is sorted by glass type. A fun and unique way to sort cocktails. They also have a selection of beer on draft and wine. The drinks can also be made into mocktails- a win for our group since we had a few non-drinkers. The 1859 mocktail was great. Perfectly sweet with a small hit of miso flavor from the miso honey. Probably even better and more balanced with the whiskey! Others in my group enjoyed working their way through the many light, dark, and sour beers on tap. 1864 offers a classic, relaxed atmosphere and a great place to get a cocktail. The prices are reasonable, too. Definitely worth the visit.

As a guest of the hotel, I had a 20% coupon and promptly used it at the ticket office, though I think I should have picked my seat better. Nonetheless, I was in the second row and I was able to get a good look of the magic up close. If you arrive early, you can hang out for Happy Hour, they had some unique drinks including the local standby beers and cocktails...and mocktails for those attending the all-ages show. I recommend seeing this show on a Friday or Saturday night if you want a bit more rambunctious, racy show.
