    What an awesome place! It's clean, an amazing selection of drinks and pretty solid prices for delicious cocktails. If you want a great place to drink cocktails then Poor Devil Saloon should be on your list. Located right in Midtown, the location is amazing. It is right near so many other good bars and restaurants. This is the perfect type of place to start or end the night. A few tv's, amazing service and such a relaxed atmosphere. You could easily sit here for hours before heading out for the night. Issac was a great bartender, super attentive and fun. The front door is pretty easy to miss but worth walking inside. Plus they have a great little outside patio I can't wait to use when the eternal winter ends. You'll have a great time here!

    Each and every bar has a unique niche in Reno. Poor Devil Saloon is a great addition to the MidTown area. Poor Devil Saloon is very clean and has a hip ambiance to their credit. The staff are friendly and very engaging with the clientele. The drinks are very flavorful and and have a uniqueness that is refreshing. Poor Devil Saloon is a great watering hole to meet up with friends.

    My husband and I love midtown! We have been searching for "our" bar for years and we have finally found it! Poor Devil Saloon is an incredible place to get a drink, to meet with friends, and to play a few games of pool. The owner Josh is frequently in the bar and is a wonderful guy! Pool costs a dollar, quarters, per game. My husband and I love to have a date night, get a few cocktails and play $5 of pool. It's a wonderful way to spend an evening. Poor Devil is also in the heart of midtown, making it a wonderful walking locations to several other venues and dining spots. There is a back patio, with amazing string lights, perfect for a date or hang with friends. This bar is incredible. My husband and I went four times last week! Check it out! Parking on Virginia street. Good for large or small groups. Great place to watch a game.

    This is hands-down my absolute favorite bar in Reno. The ambiance, the drinks, the eclectic crowd... It's a revival of the old school vibes Reno is so adept at embodying. Behind the bar, Nick, nearly without fail, always greets me and my friends by name, making us feel that hometown love and he makes a wicked good cocktail to boot. He is DEFINITELY the best part of the bar! The outdoor patio is so much fun in the summer and there is an amazing crowd, great music and a warm, welcoming feel every. single. time.

    Walking by, it's easy to miss this place, but it's a hidden gem. They have about 12 beers on tap, a variety of craft cocktails, a pool table, indoor and outdoor seating. They have drink specials Sunday through Tuesday each week. Mondays special is margaritas for $6 and Tuesdays are half price taps. The staff was friendly and attentive, and quick to serve drinks! The ambiance is chill and it has dive bar vibes. I will definitely be back to grab more drinks and to enjoy the drink specials!

    It was hotter than the devils butt today so we stopped by and had a refreshing long drink slushy.

    Poor Devil Saloon has such a cozy and stylish atmosphere with wickedly delicious craft cocktails. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by Sam, who was super fun and very well-versed in both classic and modern cocktail recipes. He recommended the yummy Long Drink slushy with strawberry syrup (a Finnish alcoholic soda). It tasted like guava with strawberries and it was so refreshing, especially for a hot day. It was also Margarita Monday! So of course your girl had to order a mid-day marg. It was quite delicious and the salt had a bit of smokiness to it. Next we ordered a Manhattan 2.0 and Sam also recommended a Rye-Go (Rye whisky with Amaro Montenegro) which my boyfriend LOVED. We were so impressed by this bar, it instantly became one of our favorites and our #1 stop when we are in Reno.

    What a cute, fun little bar! Pinball machines (bring quarters!), a pool table, and cornhole! A patio in the back with some picnic tables and pretty string lights. A long bar counter with seats to sit at. I saw a few dogs inside, so assuming dog friendly!

    This place became one of my instant favorite bars in Reno! We usually travel in big groups which is an issue at a lot of places but this bar has plenty of space for a large group. The drinks were very well crafted. We had espresso martinis that were extra creamy and made with their own espresso machine. The inside is very clean and modern. They also have one pool table which is nice because it's one of the few bars that doesn't feel like a super divy biker bar that you can still enjoy a game of pool.

    My favorite place to get a cocktail in Reno…read more They have a unique "Old Fashioned" with buffalo trace bourbon, moroccan sugar, coconut, tobacco bitters, dehydrated pineapple. It really does not taste anything like an "old fashioned" but it's very good and my usual go-to. Ambiance is cool. Has a very Edgar Alan Poe vibe mixed with an alchemist/speakeasy. They have a small patio as well. Service: top-notch mixologists/alchemists.

Love the quality of the drinks as they absolutely put effort and time making quality drinks with quality ingredients. It's relatively small inside so I can only imagine it could get packed in there. We had several drinks and every single one was perfection! The bathroom is the cutest and they have the coolest speakeasy door that the employees use to get to the back (not for the customers). My rant..I'm not from the area so I had NO idea what this place was when I walked by. It looked cute so my husband, myself and child walked up the steps and they sat outside while I went to check it out and see if this was a bar/club/ restaurant. I walked inside and instantly got the death glare from an employee. I instantly said omg I take it this place isn't kid friendly.. he rudely said no. I wanted to clarify and confirm even outside ? He said no. I apologized and they left but the vibe and way he said it was definitely off putting. My sister and I decided to stay for a drink while my husband/child went to walk around. Usually I don't give bad costumer service a chance.. but I realllllllly wanted a drink that one of those others customers were drinking. If this place had better costumer service. It would be a 5

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.

I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a great cocktail. Can't wait to go back.

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

    A wonderful magic show inside the Grand Sierra Hotel & Casino…read more I was looking for something to do without leaving the hotel for a major conference. I saw that they were advertising this show...and I like a good magic show. It did not disappoint. The sleight of hand and on-stage demonstrations were incredible. I was still banging my head of how they did it or maybe it was the cocktail at the bar that was playing tricks on my mind. 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.

    Last Friday night we went to the White Rabbit Theater. We got there 3 minutes before happy hour…read moreended so we got 2 specialty drinks for $20 instead of $18 each. I wish I had ordered two. After happy hour ended a bud light and high noon was $18. I can't believe they turned the old movie theater into a magic show theater. I sat there thinking about all the movies I saw at the Hotel and the first time I had a drink in a movie theater so long ago, 1989. It was fun in the bar prior to the doors opening they have a magical experience for adults and kids to set the mood for the evening. Tracy the bartender was awesome! She also works at Blitz during the day. She has the kindest soul and such a people person! It was like I had known her for years. They have a box office where you can purchase tickets. Very hard to hear the gal! They definitely need a microphone to speak to each other. If you think you're going to save a few extra dollars on those service fees - you may have to think twice, just purchase on line. It's much easier. Also, they have a snack bar with fresh popped popcorn $9 -$13 and huge pretzels $14. Chase Hasty and his wife have traveled around the world to over 25 countries sharing their magical talent and ballet dancing skills. My favorite part of the show was when Chase brought out a locked box and Hoisted the box with a rope up to the ceiling and told this guy to watch the box. Later in the show they opened the box, it was a pretty impressive trick!!! One not to be forgotten!! It's a small production but well thought out with couple extra dancers and costumes changes. I love that Chase, picks people out of the audience to help with the show. Maddox was a return kid that had been practicing his magic and Chase let him perform in front of the audience and what is that called "That's Magic!!!" It's nice the performers will met you afterwards in the hallway to have pictures and ask questions. It's a great family night or you can come to the later show at 9pm for a little more risky nocturnal show. I'll have to save that one for another time!
