We visited The Chapel Tavern in Midtown Reno and it was genuinely one of the best experiences ever. The bartender was fantastic and made the visit memorable by creating custom drinks based on our alcohol preferences which was such a fun and personal touch. We had two very different tastes (vodka and tequila) and she nailed both drinks perfectly. The bar felt clean, welcoming and comfortable even with its edgy vibe. I also loved the tarot cards they provide! I think they may have been intended as coasters (lol) but I kept mine as a souvenir and now use it as my bookmark. It's become one of my favorite little keepsakes. Location and parking: it's on a main strip right on the corner with a small parking lot but there's also accessible street parking in the neighborhood. I highly recommend it and will definitely return anytime I'm in Reno read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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 read more

Came here for a drink one afternoon so the place was pretty empty and there was only one bartender. They had street parking. It looked like a brewery from the outside but they had an impressive selection of spirits as well. They didn't have a happy hour but the drinks were fantastic. I basically got their version of an old fashioned and it was made really well. It was $16 which is standard for a well made cocktail. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I love this spot for a more moody and edgy vibe than the typical pep of surrounding bars. They have truly mastered their ambiance and I always feel so cool sitting at their bar with a drink in hand. Bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable, and I love their bartender's choice deal! It can get pretty crowded on a Friday or Saturday night, but the crowd generally fits the chill vibe regardless of the size. They have a nice outdoor space in the summer time as well! read more

One of my top places to meet up with friends and have reliably excellent cocktails, especially when made by Mel, who I truly think is the best bartender in town. I always appreciate how the drinks are balanced and are consistently inventive without veering into a silly territory. Everything from a simple gin and tonic to the housemade negroni is made with attention to which liquor would work best and which flavors reflect the season. As for atmosphere, sometimes it can be hard to hear, so if you're hard of hearing (like I am), then this might be a tough place to have conversations, especially if you get there on a night like a recent one where the music was comically loud, like, at levels that reminded me of Bibo on Record Street. That said, if you're looking for great drinks in a place where you want to talk to some friends for a while, hit up Mel or any of the other bartenders. read more

Chapel Tavern serves the best espresso martinis in Reno! On tap, perfectly balanced, and topped with the dreamiest creamy foam. Rich, smooth, and not too sweet, they're consistently perfect every time. The space is cozy and stylish, with great indoor and outdoor seating depending on your vibe. Bartenders are super friendly and know their stuff, making the whole experience even better. If you love a good cocktail in a cool setting, Chapel is a must! read more

This is THE place to grab a cocktail in Reno. Not a "drink" or a "cold one." A cocktail. The floor is concrete, the ceiling is open rafter, and the tables are wood. It might sound cold, but the people who gather here make it a warm, inviting place to while away the hours with friends. Reno has some great bars, but this is the pinnacle of barcrafting. Treat yourself. read more

One of my favorite spots in reno. Chapel is always a good time if you are looking for a quality cocktail. There is a small parking lot, but spaces can be hard to come by depending on the time of day. My husband and I live in midtown and always walk over. If you are interested in a hand crafted cocktail or trying some nice whiskeys... this is the place for you! You will never be disappointed! Their cocktail menu also updates with the seasons, so you will have a unique experience no matter what time of year you visit. The bartenders are amazing! And the atmosphere is superb!

This was a quaint little spot we stumbled upon when walking around. It was easily accessible, chill atmosphere, and the bartender was pretty attentive. There were about 8 of us, but he made sure to pay attention and offer suggestions or service when necessary. The spot seemed to have quite a few selections for craft beer, but their spirits were also quite impressive. My husband got a neat bourbon pour based on the suggestion of the bartender while I opted for a Blanton's Gold. The pours were reasonably priced so we decided to splurge. We also had cause to use the restroom, which was pretty clean. And although the outdoor patio was open, we preferred to sit in the AC. All in all, I could see myself returning. Great vibe and the service was pretty amazing. If I'm ever back in town, I'll make sure to stop by. read more

Chapel is a cool spot for cocktails and beers on the edge of Midtown. They have a neat old x new testament cocktail menu along with a number of brews on taps that range from Pliny the elder to an espresso martini. In addition, they have a pretty solid whiskey range touching Japan, Taiwan, Scotland, and US for bourbon. There's plenty of seating inside as well as some outdoor seating. Service is chill. Street parking nearby. read more

My favorite cocktail bar in Reno! They always have an interesting selection that changes seasonally. Bring back the yuzu foam!!

Cute little corner bar in Midtown. It was my first time there. We were early for dinner at a nearby restaurant so we popped in to have a pre-dinner drink. They have shelves and shelves of different alcohol. Guessing there is not a drink they can't make. They also offer beers and wine. Bartender was friendly and she made sure we liked our drinks before we went and sat at a table. According to their drink menu they have a good variety of house infused liquors. My only regret was not looking at the menu before I ordered!! It's kind of a rustic hunting/country theme. Had plenty of seating for large groups as well. read more

The bartenders are really friendly and helpful when navigating the cocktail menu. The pour is liberal and reminds me of a Vegas pour.

Seriously good drinks and an excellent music vibe. read more

I think Chapel is a great place! I never make it down as much as I would like but given the warm weather I had a strong craving for a frozen drink and I kept seeing their frose's on their instagram being offered for a little longer so I wanted to make sure I went while they still had them. I ended up meeting up with a friend, and I ordered a frose which was served in cute glass bottle, and followed that up with a Glass slipper. Both drinks were great, the glass slipper tasted like apple juice with a kick. Best of all is their ambiance, it was a friday after work, so there were plenty of seats to choose from. My favorite is the one right in the middle facing the patio and Virginia. I think this was a great choice to unwind, and the service was nice. read more

One of my favorite cocktail bars in Reno! I definitely enjoyed going here on a week night, as you get to be able to sit at the bar and get a tarot card and really embrace a speakeasy vibe more so than on weekend where I have had it take much longer to get drinks. With that being said each drink I've ever had here has never disappointed!! They are all crafted to perfection so I'd rather the bartenders take their time in crafting the cocktails. Their menus rotate with the seasons too to always keep things spicy . read more

Stopped by chapel on a Friday night. Super cool dark vibes inside, and very clean. They had 3 bartenders which was good seeing as it was pretty busy so we didn't have to wait too long for a drink. Their menu cocktails were very good! I had the Seoul Finder and it was very tasty. Others ordered some of the others and also enjoyed them. However, i will say stick to their cocktails or beer. We also ordered tequila and grapefruit and a vodka cranberry and they somehow both tasted the same, were very watery and just not that good. Overall, i really enjoyed The Chapel and will definitely be back! read more
