    Always good to have a backup
    Larry M.

    This is a review that I should have posted back in 2015, and updated it with a every year since. The rating is on two counts; the Quality and strength of the COMPLIMENTARY DRINKS prepared and served, AND the service staff who deliver drinks throughout the casino, especially to the tables. We spend a lot of time at various casinos and NO ONE tops the quality of the Tequila Mary's served here. I'd REALLY like to know about your mixer, is it house made or pre-prepared, because it's just the right blend. Oh and it's not JUST the free drinks... with the wide open ceiling, the large selection of spirits, friendly service and the strong pours? A great place to "set a spell"

    "Every bad situation waiting to happen is a blues song!" Amy Winehouse Happy is that pulse and best of the guitar, the bass that taps your foot. The drum roll from behind the lead singer. As the band plays live to you. As the lights go up the guitars grab your attention, let them pull you in. Sit and stay for a while. The local talent gets shown here for all of Reno to see. We happened to be guests of the hotel but as the sun goes down the blues of the night eclipsed us. We found ourselves here. The stage is small but close your eyes and feel the vibes that the band is laying down. Now the host band has to primarily play tunes you know they will squeeze in their own tracks of music too. The next great could be playing for you. Small is best shared by you and a small audience. Each night we visited this little bar is packed, sometimes just standing room only. Sway along as the band plays and excites you. Sing and dance along if you want. The night is yours go grab it. The bar is open here with all the liquid libations that are to your offering. If your a smoker you can have a few tokes of nicotine and not invade on anyones air. Actually this is the only bar that you are able to "smoke" in in this area. Just an FYI of course. As the music plays get up and dance. Or sit back in the chair and let the sounds of music go deep into your soul. Music brought us into this little place, and has brought us back here each and every night. Into the wee hours of the morning: Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights showcase bands from around the local Reno stage. Get out and support your local music scene. You will not be able to contain yourself. As the band plays some of their favorites you can sing along too. They showcase their own talents too! We were so pleased with the amazing memories we took away from here.

    A small bar in the Silver Legacy upstairs with what you expect. It has high prices on most items. Silver Baron also has a happy hour where you can have cheaper times. Basic place with not much going on. They have some local bands perform. It has a happy hour. Sunday to Friday it's $3 specials. These are for well cocktails and wine. Choose from fume and merlot. The drinks other times are incredibly overpriced. Basically nothing special about it to recommend except for the happy hour. This is the only time worth it to check it out. Also has a tiny dance floor. It has local bands perform often. These bands are mostly terrible.

    Rotating live music, no cover charge. Come on. If ya don't like it, go, like it, stay. Gamble at bar tops. Sit, enjoy your drinks! Enjoy!!

    Correct me if I'm wrong but this looks like Icarus or Hermes Talaria rocking a Covid mask!. Lmao how funny. I'm sure it's been done before but not in this ancient type of Greek fashion. Let me tell you about the Silver Baron downstairs in the Silver legacy Casino On an off night you can find yourself enjoying comped drinks while you play video poker or Keno. You'll hear today's and yesterday's top 40 music while the popular evenings sports games play on multiple TV screens. Now on a weekend ,holiday or a special event. You'll find the entire venue packed. FReee to get in, no dress code, Live music, drinks pouring , people laughing ,singing and dancing! A very nice place to have a good time. For the upscale and more mature. 5 stars for the decor, live music and cleanliness. Best regards to anyone that reads this and experiences what I'm writing about. Enjoy!

    Great live band. Decoy

    It's a casino bar. It's tucked under the giant mine head in the Silver Legacy. A good sized bar with fair casino drinks- there are better spots in the area for martinis. But they offer live bands on the weekends for free. There is also a small dance floor that allows 4-5 couples to dance at a time. Sometimes the music from the upstairs bands competes with the one here. And on the hour the thunder and lights from the mine rumble over the band. Still a good spot to hangout for a couple of hours to catch a local band.

    I have visited this establishment on many occasions over the years and had realized I had not rated it before. This bar is exceptional in its service. The gentlemen in the photo has served my party and I on many occasions. He's made Micheladas, Moscow Mules and Lemon Drops. This place never disappoints. It's always an exceptional experience. I love this place. I've been visiting for years. Stop and say hello to Jose.

    Saturday night always full here

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'm giving three stars because of an interaction with the other bartender. I asked him if he knew how to make a Painkiller, and he kindly said he'd made them before. I was only asking a question, but she interrupted with a sharp, "No, we don't make those." Her tone made a simple question feel unwelcome. I told her I'd been asking him, but the interaction left us uncomfortable. The drinks and prices were good. I just wish the service had been as friendly throughout.

If you head to the other section, you can actually browse through the records and check out the vinyl player. I didn't see anyone listening to music while we were there, but maybe I'll do that next time. Someone also told me they serve coffee and tea too, so I'd love to try that on another visit. As for the bar itself, everyone was super friendly and the drinks were really good. I stuck to mocktails this time, but there are definitely a few others on the menu I want to try next time. It was pretty busy for a Saturday, but it still maintained a really chill vibe. I highly recommend it!

An interesting combination of coffee shop, bar, and vinyl lounge, EP is located on Wells Avenue. Took a break from checking out other neighborhood shops to sit and enjoy an afternoon cocktail with friends. Plenty of various comfy seating areas and about six spots at the bar. I tried the Float On, a boozy adult root beer float using local gelato from Bibo. It's a coffee shop, so my friend sipped the 9 to 5, their version of an espresso martini. The Soul Sipper, a beautiful orange colored cocktail was similar to an Aperol Spritzer. Located on the corner of Wells and Vassar, there's a little more street parking available.

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.

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
