    Speakeasy. Kind of.
    Jeremy N.

    Found this by accident. It is almost a speakeasy from inside and out. Didn't think it was open at first, but the door pulled so we went in. Inside is like some thing from the the movies. Dark and oddly inviting. Probably what the real Cheers looked like before the show found it. No beer on tap, but bottles in the fridge. Decided to go with a rum and coke and the wifey got a vodka cran. Pulled out my card but she said CASH ONLY. I had some on me luckily, but not much. But they were so reasonably priced I had enough for a second round. This time an old fashioned and makes on the rocks. Drink were great. Old fashioned was surprisingly good. We have high standards for that particular drink. Service was friendly. Definitely going to try and be back regularly.

    I can't express how much I love this place! It's like a Loomis speakeasy. They have the cheapest drinks in town and the staff and regulars are so friendly. Karaoke on Fridays and Saturdays is so much fun and it gets pretty full on those nights, but the rest of the time, it's like a true "Cheers" with friendly people and good conversation. Had to get some of their swag!

    Close you eyes... imagine you walk into your weird uncles garage and everything is carpeted and has vinyl seats everywhere. Open your eyes...that is the bull lol. Its a tucked in little gem with karoke, darts, board games and a wide variety of drinks. IT IS A CASH BAR ONLY. So be sure to bring cash. There is an ATM if needed. Bathrooms are clean and there is a smoking section right outside of the back door. The staff is friendly, I am only giving it 4/5 stars due to me going multiple times and the drinks being inconsistent on the pours and a lot of the time being served too much alcohol (doesnt make it fun anymore)

    Fun place with good service and good prices. Had a really good time. Could be a little cleaner but well worth a visit.

    Fun place to hang out. It's small inside but everyone is friendly. Make sure you bring cash, that's all they take for payment. Seems odd.

    Such a fun spot in Roseville. The small and cozy ambiance was perfect. We came here for a couple of…read morepre-drinks prior to our dinner reservations. Honestly, we would have stayed if we weren't hungry. Be aware, it is a small venue. Be prepared to perhaps stand if no seats or tables are available. We happen to get lucky and managed to snag a 2 seater tall table. It's a dark setting, very intimate. You do need the password of the day to get in. Follow them in IG for the daily password. The entrance is located off an alley. No signs, just a door. I love that speakeasy's are making a slow comeback and this one is exceptional.

The room is small but surprisingly fit two large groups and a few couples. There's a bar plus a few tables and couches. The bartenders are very focused and work hard at their craft. Each cocktail is carefully made to perfection. The list of drinks ranges from light fruity to spirit-forward depending on your taste. We enjoyed: - pomegranate martini: light and fruity, good pomegranate flavor - yuzu lime drop: seasonal for summer only! - the First Lady: strong but smooth; came with a nicely cut ice cube - whiskey sour: classic flavor, executed well The drinks were great but I really wish there was some sort of snack to munch on. Even peanuts or mixed nuts would have been welcome. Adding a small food menu of bar snacks would make me stay longer!

I have to say I was impressed !!! So they don't have a menu but they have very good liquor at the bar. They had one of my favorite beers from revision which is called Reno as F .. They have Pool tables and a music player where u can pay for the songs you want . I like the music people were selecting my group of friends even danced and sang to most of them . This establishment was pretty clean and organized the restrooms are nice and clean lol . Sorry but it matters . It was a good crowd of people . The bartenders were all very friendly. This place gets pretty packed and the music is loud. I have to say that is what I like about it . Fun fact this is one of the oldest bar in Placer County. Family owned for more then 100 years . Overall we had a blast here last night . I loved the music and the vibe . Prices are super reasonable . I had a great time with a lot of my friends . I would definitely come back for some more fun in the future.

Large bar, pool table, lots of TVs, patio area. The bartender was very friendly and attentive. I guess the biggest complaint I've seen was they charge $5.50 fee if you use a credit card. If that bothers you then bring cash. Good crowd and atmosphere for the football game I was there to watch. Wasn't much of a dive at all. Great bar. I will be back.

    I was tasked with finding a location in the Rocklin area to host a memorial gathering. Since I…read moredon't live nearby, I turned to Yelp and started calling places close to the mortuary where our family would be gathering. Pain Killers was the third place on my list. My first call went unanswered, and there wasn't an answering service. On my second call, I was able to leave a voicemail. When I called Pain Killers, a kind woman answered within two rings. I explained that I was looking for a venue to host a memorial gathering. She let me know that the person who could best assist me wasn't available but offered to take my number and have them return my call. Within 30 minutes, Austin called me back. We discussed what we were looking for, and as you can imagine, it's not an easy conversation to have with someone you've never met. From the very beginning, Austin's kindness and compassion stood out. His exact words were, "We want to be here for you during this difficult time." Those weren't just words--I could genuinely feel his sincerity, not only during that phone call but in every text message we exchanged over the following week. Each time I reached out, I'd say, "Ok, Austin, last question," only to think of another one shortly afterward. No matter how many times I contacted him, he remained patient, understanding, and accommodating. He answered every question, responded promptly, and never once made me feel like I was asking too much. In the end, it was decided to keep the entire day's gathering at a church rather than the mortuary, so we didn't end up going to Pain Killers. Even so, I wanted to recognize Austin for the exceptional level of customer service and genuine compassion he showed during one of the most difficult times. The next time I'm in the Rocklin area, I plan to stop by, say hello to Austin, and make sure to give Pain Killers some well-deserved business. Thank you, Austin, for reminding me that kindness and empathy still go a long way.

I do hope you recently cleaned the patio since I did visit a few weeks ago. I wish you the best of luck. Just a tip on future responses to reviews. You always seem to have an "answer" . Sometimes you just need to chalk it up to a bad day, experience, or something to grow from. You show a pattern which comes off as disingenuous. Anybody who reads your other responses will see its deflection. Sometimes a "Thanks for your review, we identified a few items to learn from and hopefully a future chance at your business will be better". Service was horrible. Sunday afternoon around 4 pm. 1 bartender, 1 patron at bar, 2 establishment based folks "meeting" at a high top in the bar area. Bartender literally told me after we received our drinks that "if she got bored, she would come check on us in the patio" as she moved over to eat her salad (at the bar) and chat with the 1 patron. The patio is filthy. Please pressure wash the outside and maybe wash the furniture covers outside. I mean it gives off the grunge downtown or extremely busy college bar scene but in Rocklin, Ca which is about as grunge as the Hamptons. The menu has lined out times, rather than update the paper document. Food looked standard pub fair, nothing flashy, but didn't have the quality of the old Mac and cheeses Bone Shakers use to provide. Decor is pretty much Bone Shakers, no real heart or specialization, beyond adding the grunge feel. I ordered a specialty fry with my first drink. As I was wrapping up my 3rd drink, I cancelled the order, and proceeded to close out. One of the establishment "gentleman" let me know the food was coming out. I said "at this point, No Thank You". They did offer the food to me at no charge 5 minutes later as I finished my drink outside. It weighed about 10 lbs and was not appetizing looking. You can be the judge. I came here for a little nostalgia and to see how the place had grown since I had been there some years ago. I can check it off my follow up list.
