    Me and my Baby!

    Ok, so Wifey loves Ghost Adventures.... plus, we dont live far from Paso Robles and often visit. Wifey was compelled to visit the Saloon and as clunky-historic as it is, it won our hearts and is one of our local "go-to's" whenever we're in town. They typically have a no-nonsense bar tender that pours a quality drink, and if you're in the mood for checking out downtown/park area, all of that fun stuff is within walking distance. This watering hole is well worth a visit!

    Megan is the best, couldn't ask for a better bartender!! Very friendly cash only, perfect bar to come after mid state fair!

    We went here to check it out mostly because I just enjoy cool historic locations in general. Total dive bar, was absolutely not expecting the vibe inside I was expecting a more quiet crowd, I felt old af because I never go to dive bars but it was a fun time. We listened to the karaoke singers and enjoyed a beer. I wanted to come back during the day just to look at the inside when it was less insane but we didn't get to do that - maybe next time!

    Pro-Trump merchandise at the bar

    We decided to check out this place since it was the only karaoke bar in town. Let me start off by saying that the hospitable service was the only redeeming factor for this place. I could see how hard the bartenders were working behind the counter to put together drinks. As we were leaving, the gentleman at the door asked us if we were okay getting home. They also offer a car ride service to and from the venue for those who may have had one too many drinks to drink, which I thought was very thoughtful. Now on to the not so great... This is a cash only bar. We paid a $5 cover charge to enter and as we approached the bar, we saw the pro-Trump merchandise for sale lined up along the wall. In addition to the pro-Trump paraphernalia, something about their drinks, especially the lime-based ones, were off. Two of my friends didn't finish their drinks because of it. Never known my friends NOT to finish a drink. With regards to the karaoke, it was a Friday night, and KJ Darkman was hosting karaoke. Sound system was up to par, so that was a plus. The issue arose when we attempted to put in a group song under one of our friend's names who hadn't sung yet. We waited for about a hour when we finally heard our song come on (no queue to see who is coming up next). We were taken aback when some other person got called up instead. Apparently, this person had picked the same exact song, but we were not informed of the duplicate entry by the KJ. If there was a duplicate entry, it would have been nice to have been informed, so we could have the opportunity to pick another song. Needless to say, we immediately exited the bar. Service was great, but the selling of political merchandise, the drinks, and the lack of communication from the KJ left a sour taste in my mouth, both literally and figuratively. I don't see myself coming back.

    I've been working in town for about a month and started coming to this bar frequently because it's by far the funnest karaoke bar I've ever been to. There's all walks of people, they do not discriminate because of race, so please do not listen to people that have said so. If you are offended easily, just stay inside and don't go out. I have always had a great time here. They do get busy and it may take a minute to receive service, but it's busy! The bartenders are doing their best! They have open mic on Monday's where John and Dylan(father son duo) sing along with other talented artists. I love when they have Karaoke inside with a band on the patio, best of both worlds! I have met amazing locals and have new friends when I am in town for work! Entertainment seems to start around 9pm and gets busy around 10pm. If you show up before it will seem very calm...but the storm comes so hold your hats! Fun fun Oh...and they have 2 pool tables if you're into that kind of thing! They are always being occupied, so you may have to wait your turn during the busy times.

    What a dive bar should be! They have 'oke and reasonably priced drinks. Pool tables to pass the time.

    Be careful. We were warned when having dinner around the corner that it might not be our scene. It was a nice way of saying they probably don't want a Black or Mexican girl in there. The signs on the walls are offensive and they actually let you know they the will offend you in the signage. The native depictions are horrible and the trump hats all over the walls really MAGA hats... sigh. We looked around and waited for a few minutes.... No one asked us to order which was probably by choice. We found a cool spot a couple blocks away called the Rodeo.

    At first, it didn't seem like much. But it was a very popular recommendation from pretty much all the locals we met at Paso Robles. So we gave it a shot. Wish we knew it was a 'Cash only' place. So make sure to carry cash with you, they do have a ATM as well. So my friend and I got a drink and hung out. The drinks are pretty standard, nothing too crazy. But you can ask for what you like. We met some people and had a good time. It started getting busier around 10ish. That's when the karaoke started. And wow the singers were soo talented, it even got people dancing. The whole vibe of the place changed pretty quickly. It was packed and a lot more people joined in. There was a lot of dancing, good drinks and so many lovely people. It wasn't quiet anymore, the singing and the music livened up the place. There was also a taco station that opened up later. We had such an amazing time here.

    What a fun and cool place to stop and have a drink but the bartender Roxy was the best ! She knows how to make a great cocktail especially the lemon drops. We will definitely come back !!!

If you want to hit me with a 20% service fee tell me up front. But when you do not and you put me in the patio with no Air Conditioning and charge me over $50 without my consent. Shame on you. This is a 3.5 star place but I had to down graded it for single financial issues.

We've only ever come here on a whim, and because of that we usually end up sitting at the bar, but most recently we did get a regular table on a Saturday afternoon. They do take reservations if you want to make sure you secure a spot when and where you want. Favorites are still the tacos and Aguachile, especially the short rib tacos. We've also gotten nachos, oysters, ahi crudo, and taquitos, all of which we would get again. Food comes out pretty quick, but still seems to be very fresh. So it's a great place if you want to sit down, but still get out quick to go back to the wineries.

It feels like a tucked-away garden you never want to leave. We came for lunch before wine tasting and had such a lovely experience. Kennedy was our server and she was great, warm, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. I ordered their Kale Caesar salad and it was not your typical Caesar but in the best way. It had raisins, red onion, crushed pistachios and the dressing had these subtle mustard seeds that gave it this bright, slightly tangy pop. It's their unique take on a Caesar and I'm officially obsessed. I'm definitely going to try to replicate this at home! My boyfriend ordered the soup and sandwich, and once I tried a spoonful of the soup, I instantly ordered a cup of my own. It was the corn and shishito pepper soup, velvety, a little smoky, and had just the right kick without being overly spicy. So, so good! Their menu changes seasonally, and since they are a true farm-to-table restaurant, the best way to see what's currently offered is to check their website. If you're looking for a perfect lunch spot in Paso, especially before wine tasting, definitely give them a visit. It's charming, delicious, and just feels good to be there.

We first went into a very small room full of books and he explained the process and locked our phones in a bag. They take this seriously. You were not going to have access to your phone. I'm sure the material was made to protect it from getting anything sneaky through. They do, however, tell you to keep the phone with you so it is always in your posession.
