I came here with some work friends. They said this place was supposed to have some great food. I decided to join them. The place is a bar on the corner of S and 24th Street. It's a small bar that servers food. There is a kitchen inside next to the bar. I think they call it Darian's. They take your order and you pay them there not at the bar. Most of the food is burger, chicken tenders, wings and tacos. I asked the cook what was the best item to get and he told me that his Western Burger was the best. So I ordered that. It came with a combo of fries and tater tots. The service seemed kind of slow but I guess it's just one guy cooking. It took over 20 minutes for our food to come. The burger was just ok. It was pretty big though. But nothing to write home about. My friend got the chicken tacos and he loved them. He eats a lot of tacos so that means a lot, from him. This place is a bar with a pool table. but I didn't drink that day. It was just bar food as I look at it. Nothing too note worthy except for the tacos.
Had a coworker pick up lunch. These burgers are HUGE and tasty. I got the western bbq burger. I think the sauce is a bit much and too sweet do me. Buddy got the spicy avacado. Looks great and huge and definitely get your monies worth here.
A gem of a local dive bar. This spot is awesome. I wish my neighborhood had a bar like this to just stop in and shoot the breeze with whoever is there. I came in on Thursday afternoon before a show next door. I had a couple drinks and hung out with a few locals that were having a stop off after work. The bartender was a cool guy that has been there for decades and had lots of stories to tell about the area.
Heard people raving about the food nonstop specifically the burger. Tacos were good! Burger...? Carl's Jr at best. Thin patty. No skirt like they advertise. Bartender was kinda a dick too. Oh also the chicken wings tasted like back of the freezer junk. So idk what everyone talking about. ALSO it's dirty af in there. Takes 5 seconds to wipe a table. Try it sometime. Oh and $19??? For fries and a shit burger?? Crazy.
Saw this all over social media so i took the wife on a saturday like 11 beers and burgers what better then too start it with .people super friendly good vibes orderd two cheeseburgers jus for a test run Took over a half hour to get food pretty sure we were 1st ones to order food came had like a half inch cheese skirt which was burnt opend up everything was burnt took few bites no flavor was so dissapointed
If you're looking for a divey hangout, this place is for you! With neon signs and retro decor (and patrons), this place can be super fun with the right crowd. The drinks are basic and affordable and credit cards are accepted. The bartenders are patient and efficient. They do have a small kitchen that serves bar bites and lumpia! The price was a little steep and they charged extra to use Venmo. I don't think credit cards were an option for the kitchen. The lumpia was larger than normal, fried very well and very tasty! $14 for 10 does seem a bit steep for me though. Note: if you bring a large party like a pub crawl, make sure you call ahead to notify the staff.
This place is such a solid bar/late night food spot. We came in after seeing a bunch of social media posts about them. You go up to the doorway next to the bar to order. The loveliest lady took our order. FYI cash or Venmo only yall and they do have an atm inside. We got a spicy avocado burger with garlic fries and a 12 piece wing, half buffalo half Thai chili. Their buffalo sauce has garlic in it literally so bomb. The burger was FAT as hell overflowing with toppings and their ranch seemed homemade. I like to think I'm a ranch connoisseur and I would drink theirs happily. The bartender was really sweet guiding us to where we ordered. It gives mom and pop so be patient because you will be blessed with some fire food and even better service.
I came here specifically to try the turkey bacon club sandwich that I saw on Tik Tok, and the wings. The wings were really good, and they have a lot of different flavors to choose from. The sandwich I had mixed feelings about. The sandwich was huge, and had a lot of ingredients on it. Not much turkey, but was still huge. It was very greasy, and had a LOT of mayonnaise on it. It is definitely bar food. At first I really liked the sandwich. After a few bites into it, i started to get that UGH feeling, like I didn't want anymore. Me and my wife split the sandwich and the wings, and I did finish my half of the sandwich, but the last couple bites were hard to get down. There is no way I could have ate the whole sandwich, and not because I was full, it was just too much grease on the stomach. My wife felt the same way about the sandwich. Im glad that I came out and tried it for something different, and I would definitely come for the wings again, but honestly its not really the kind of place I would want to hang out in for very long, or even come back inside again, so unless I was in the area and was gonna grab some food to go, I probably wouldn't come back. All of their food looks amazing on Tik Tok, so I would definitely recommend coming and trying it out for yourself.
To the locals and regulars that frequent "Round Corner Tavern", this is your no-frills "dive bar" that has withstood the test of time over the years. In my younger days when chugging down drinks was a more common occurrence, I usually found myself coming here on a bar/pub crawl or a spot where I walked in, knew what I wanted, and stayed for an hour, sometimes two, or even through the wee hours of the night. Located in the heart of Midtown Sacramento and at the corner of 24th and S St's, this place has retained much of its charm where not a lot has changed over the years. I came here on a whim and parked only a stones throw away from the main entrance. Inside you will notice a pool table and a fairly decent interior with barstools and regular tables & chairs. The bar itself has everything you need to get you going with several cheap beers on tap as well as all the regular hard liquors to choose from. Surprisingly, they have a fairly decent food selection specializing in all the comfort classics including wings, tacos, burgers, chicken tenders, a BLT, and deep-fried sides. Since I wasn't too hungry, I ended up enjoying an iced cold Pabst Blue Ribbon (on tap) for a very affordable $4.50 for a pint. One thing I particularly like with this place (as well as other dive bars such as "Old Tavern", "Benny's", etc.) is that you can enjoy a night out without breaking the bank. And please drink responsibly by getting a designated driver and/or taking rideshare. However, the service here leaves a lot to be desired. During my visit (which was the night of Saturday 7/20/2024 at around 9:30pm), there was only one bartender working the entire bar. He was helpful and poured my drink while the overall beer temperature was chilled perfectly. So if you're looking for a fancy place, this place ain't it. But if you prefer that true old-school gritty dive experience, "Round Corner" will have you covered. My rating, just an average three stars.

Great little dive bar in the heart of Sacramento. Sat at the bar. Bartender very nice but a little weird. She was your typical Californian in a colorful, striped, flowing robe like outfit! (fancy!) Dive Beers are around $4 and others (and ciders)up to $6. The food is a separate business and cash only which isn't ever a problem for me. Burger was big sized with a good helping of fries. all fresh and made to order. It was tasty and delicious. We had substituted onion rings for fries and they forgot so he brought us a full order of onion rings which was nice. Chef was really cool and funny. They have two pool tables that were busy the entire time (we were there mid day on a Saturday) . Seems like a lot of locals hang out here which is not surprising at all. Juke box plays and you can control with app on your phone. Overall, I was happy with the place. I would definitely return for a second round. If you are looking for a quintessential dive bar in Sacramento, you've found the place. read more
I discovered the Round Corner through social media after seeing a post showcasing an oversized bacon cheeseburger overflowing with toppings. I'm happy to say the burgers we ordered lived up to the social media post! We tried the bacon cheeseburger, original cheeseburger, (chicken sandwich, not pictured) and spicy bacon cheeseburger, and as you'll see from the photos, each one was served just as advertised. Our meals came with a choice of seasoned fries or onion rings. The portions were generous, the burgers were tasty, and you'll definitely want to bring your appetite. The Round Corner has the feel of a friendly neighborhood bar. As you walk in, the small kitchen is located at the end of the bar, where you're greeted by the chef and his assistant, both eager to take your order. One thing to know before you go: the kitchen accepts payment by cash or Venmo only. The bar itself is spacious, with two large pool tables. The dining area is toward the very back and is basic but functional. Dim lighting and neon bar art give the place that classic neighborhood-bar atmosphere. Overall, the food was plentiful, tasty, and exactly what caught my attention on social media in the first place. Definitely come hungry! read more

Absolutely amazing burger and fries! Portion size is huge and the flavor on point. Hands down one of the best I have experienced in Sacramento. The drinks are also strong and inexpensive. Good service also. This bar is now my go-to rather than the Merc. read more

Round Corner is located on the corner of S st and 24th, so pretty much all street parking. We came on a Monday around 6:30 and had zero issues finding a spot. Inside is reminiscent of your typical dive bar, dark and dank. There were a few spots to sit at in front and a few more tables in the back past the 2 pool tables. For those of you who play pool, the bumpers are good, so adjust your game accordingly. This is a cash only bar which I'm not a fan of but beers were cheap, $4.50 for a Corona. They do have an ATM if needed. They also have a touch-tunes style jukebox which hardly no one used the whole time we were there. They do have a few TV's which aired the World Series and some football games. Didn't get the friendliest vibe from the bartender or regular patrons. They do serve food and it smelled good but I just couldn't see $18 for 10 chicken wings, seems a bit too steep for mediocre bar food. The woman's bathroom is super tiny and only 1 stall but was well maintained. They have an "adult" vending machine in the woman's stall instead of your normal tampon machine, which I thought was hilarious. Curiosity got the best of me but unfortunately the machine did not work. There were tampon on the top of the machine tho should you find yourself in need. Overall, just an average dive in downtown. Probably not on my list of places to return unless it's for another pool league game. read more

I went to a concert at the new building around the corner. Cool atmosphere. Only negative if they wouldn't keep an open tab. But oh well, that's the least of my worries. Drinks are reasonable food and the food looks good. next time I'll ask them. read more

I was outside taking a photo of the vintage neon sign (a classic old school neon that's one of the best I've ever seen) One of the workers (bartender?) happened to be at the entrance and gave me a short history of the place. Including the time someone drove their truck through the front door. He invited me inside and it was just what you'd expect to see in an old bar, in a good way. Good vibes, friendly patrons and a semi-cranky bartender, also in a good way. If I'm ever back in Sacramento on a hot summer day, I'd seek out Round Corner Tavern in a heart beat & a NY minute. Cheers! read more

Cute dive bar with pool tables and tvs. They also offer food like chicken tenders and fries. I didn't eat, but the regulars seemed to like them. I went Friday during the day and there was about 10 people there, but I bet it gets busier after work. read more

Hidden gem in Sacramento! The vibe is absolutely a dive bar but everyone is very friendly. The staff are awesome! My friends and I came in for a quick drink & bite to eat and we left full and so happy to start our Friday night. Lumpias we're perfection. They were rolled perfectly and had plenty of filling. I loved their lemon pepper wings. But omg, the chicken tacos were the best! I saw lots of over reviews that claim these were the best chicken tacos they've had and I thought they were crazy...but they're THAT good. The shell is crunchy and the toppings are just loaded on top. It's not pretty to eat but absolutely delicious! Keep in mind that they get pretty busy so if you want a place to sit, I recommended going in before 7. They also accept cash only!! If you happen to go in without cash, there's an atm inside. read more
Upgrading because what is not to like? The well whiskey maybe. But maybe I can stop being a cheap ass. Drian's is the best bar food in town, and that's a fact. He has plenty of vegetarian options too, which I was surprised to find last time we came in for drinks, a late lunch, and to watch my 49ers when they were still in the running (a moment of silence please). The hogging of pool tables is really only a busy weekend night type of thing. I have had no bad experiences here and like the people that hang out here, and of course, the people who work here. It's divey, it's fun, it's an experience. The TV digital signal was a bit whack last time we were here, but I still love this place too much after all these years to take off stars anymore. These past few years have taken away some of my favorite watering holes, so I continue to be happy the Round Corner stays to keep me company. read more
