This is the place I keep ending up after a night out. Dive Bar with a decent beer selection. Biggest downfall is the dart machines that cost and arm and leg and they don't provide darts that work.
We had the best time at Huntsman Tavern. The drinks were yummy and to the point. The service was welcoming and helpful. The food was tasteful and priced right. Excited to visit again!
Sparks is so lucky to have this establishment. So many good beers on draft and in cans in the fridge. Generous pours and inventive concoctions if you're drinking spirits. The Huntsman executes magnificently on the top-notch attributes you want while rocking that elevated dive bar vibe. The prices are so reasonable and the service is so good that I can't help but always leave at least a 30% tip here. I know I'm going to have a good time whether I'm giving an out-of-towner friend a taste of the local brews, hanging out on the front patio with the running club on the second and fourth Wednesdays, or moving a work convo here when we realized that the classier place we initially planned was closed on Mondays. I can't wait to see what they do with the former Silver Peak location in midtown!
Cozy, friendly place to relax, talk and hopefully win at the bar tops. Zach is a great and informative craft drink maker. Lots of parking. Can get crowded on certain nights.
Enjoyed my initial visit and looking forward to returning soon. Friendly, fun place to visit! Love the history behind this establishment, too!
Super cute. It has enough space here. Its a modern tavern feel. But a friendly tavern atmosphere. The bar tenders talk and give you good drink styles for every taste bud. They have a other side and the pool table is there with a large seating area. You can really spread yourselves out. They do have a bathroom and they have a large parking lot. I only went 9nce, ut would go again. Its just far for my friends. They all live near downtown.
What a cute place! Lots of hunting ambience. They served a Hunting Derby made with Lot 40 Canadian Whiskey, lime, and agave syrup...super tasty. It was served with a half shot of the Lot 40 which was super cool because you could taste the whisky straight. Lot 40 is a Canadian Rye Whisky that is super smooth and mellow with notes of vanilla and citrus. Awesome. Huntsman Tavern has lots of local craft beers on tap and the owner told us about some interesting beers that he has and is in the process of procuring. This would definitely a place to hang out and enjoy a craft beer.
Located in a nondescript shopping center in central Sparks sits a small bar with a fresh face. We went here strictly to get our Whiskey Hunt card, because it's not near me and there isn't much else in the area that I think I would visit. However, once inside, I definitely warmed up to the place. We spoke with the two employees at the time, more so with a gentleman by the name of E.O., who has been working at the bar through three ownerships and maybe just as many names. The latest ownership seems to have taken the bar to a new level with a fresh makeover inside and a craft beer and whiskey-focused concept. They had a nice selection of whiskeys including some good top shelf bottles. I didn't look over the beer menu much, but was told by the other staff member that there was a good local (and non-local too) selection available. We hung out for a while and had a shot of our Lot 40 whiskey, plus the Hide and Seek special which was their take on mint julep. It hit the spot on a hot afternoon! If you feel like hanging out a while, there are countertop slot machines and dart boards as well. No food is served at this time but the owners have bought the business next door and plan on building a kitchen to help with those future late night food cravings. It may be a little while before that's in place though. All in all, it was a fun, easygoing place with nice staff and decent selection of drinks. I would recommend this as a great neighborhood bar!
This was the first stop on the whiskey hunt for my husband and I this year. The Huntsman's Tavern is a little hole in the wall local bar with friendly bartenders. The whiskey that they were serving up was called Lot no. 40 which is a Canadian Rye whiskey. For the whiskey hunt special you got a half shot of whiskey and a Hunting Derby cocktail which is there version of a mint julep. The whiskey was smooth and nice tasting. The Hunting Derby was quite sweet and we really couldn't taste the whiskey in it. The Huntsman Tavern is a low key bar with friendly bartender's! What a great way to start off this year's whiskey hunt!
Really chill place. There are slot games if that's your thing. It's got a full bar and has a tavern type feeling interior. It's a little small seating around 20-30 but definitely a cool spot.
January 18, 2019 Friday - 5 PM for a drink 1 Adult Atmosphere - 5 stars Food - 5 stars Service - 5 stars Background - Found this place via Untappd and looked closer with Yelp. Unique beers on tap plus a bottle and can selection available. Atmosphere - Small, did I say small? Probably ten spots around the bar, and a three tables. They are located in a very old strip mall. Soon as you step in you forget about the outside world. Very warm and inviting space. Food Drink - I love Ballast Point and they had one on tap I had never heard of. So I order the Spruce Tip Sculpin. I have to say that is my least favorite Sculpin. But they had something rare which is key in the craft beer market. Service - Two guys were working the bar. I got my beer quickly and sat down at one of the tables. After they finished up serving everyone, one of the bartenders visited me and told me about the food truck coming for the retirement party they are having tonight. I did not stay for the truck. Felt that was very helpful. Future - Yes.
Came in about year and a half ago for the first time, during their soft opening. Same bartender as the first time I came, Funny and always ready to pal around. This is also one of the only tap houses in Sparks, they did a great job remodeling it. The bathrooms are nice and clean. The beer selection is great! We came this time for the whiskey hunt and the bartender gave us the whole story about there selection( Lot No. 40 Canadian Rye) Great time! Great local spot, supporting other locals! Cheers!
Came here Saturday night for a drink. Simple bar. They were playing great music ! Lord of beers on tap, canned beverages and hard liquor. There is a pool table and a few dart boards. Solid bar when you just want a drink. No fuss no muss read more

Fun local bar off of Pyramid. The decor is rustic with a hunting vibe. They also offer pool and darts. Drinks are priced well and the bartender was super nice. Cool and clean location that I will frequent in the future. read more

As the world opens up my wife and I are trying to open up with it. Keeping all the things that keep us safe in mind of course. Today we stopped by Huntsmans Tavern. This locals bar has a very nice ambiance complimented by incredibly friendly staff. They have recently opened up a new addition that has some additional seating as well as a pool table and three dart boards. The bar has ten beers of tap, with quite a few being locally sourced. They also have a fully stocked cooler full of cans from all around the world. As far as Covid is concerned, all the wait staff is CDC compliant and all of the patrons were doing the right thing by socially distancing. This very well could turn in to my new spot. If you live in the Reno/Sparks area drop in and give this place a try. Also, they now have a limited food menu which will greatly expand in the future as a new full kitchen is being developed. read more

What an awesome surprise this tavern was- no smoking, great remodel of prior venue, very northern Nevada feel. Met Kyle and Zach (owner/manager) super welcoming and friendly vibe: We thoroughly enjoyed the mint julep and side shot of Lot 40 rye. We will be back with friends for sure! read more

I saw this place on yelp when it opened and I've been wanting to check it out since then. We love walking distance from it but never made it here until now. The location is kind of random and you wouldn't expect this little gem to be here. They have great beer selection in tap and the place is nice and cozy. The bartender was super friendly and gave us great suggestions. The old fashion I ordered was ok ... so I switched to beer. The beers we had were great and had a really good time hanging out there. It loooks like this place might become our local bar other than Great Basin. There's a sandwich place next door that we want to come back and try next time. I recommend this place to go have a few beers with your friends and play some darts! read more
