    I was so excited to come here. Ever since they opened almost a decade ago I have been yearning to spend an afternoon at The Cabin. I heard it used to smell like The Home Depot and I am here for it! Unfortunately, the bar doesn't smell like wood inside any more. It smelled a bit like bleach that just lingered in our noses. My friend and I ordered some cocktails and they were just OK. We got The Cabin Mule (it was weak and too sweet), and The Hot Toddy (weak and too sweet.) We plopped down near the toasty fireplace and enjoyed each other's company, recounting old memories and experiences, and listening to the nostalgic late 90's music speaking to our millennial souls. It was a sleepy afternoon, it was nice and bare. (Get it, )

    Cozy spot to stop in for a drink. Casual intimate mellow relaxing spot for a drink before a show or dinner nearby.

    my friend and i wanted some drinks for a night out and she got a marg and i got the s'mores cocktail. the bartender rec it to me and it was amazing! smooth and sweet from the choc syrup dipped in graham cookie crumbles. they top it w marshmallows and torch it in front of you. super cool experience! inside is very woodsy and cabin retreat vibes. there's a cozy fireplace and ambient lighting. pretty busy on a friday night but still room to sit and stand. would rec!

    We came into The Cabin for a pre-dinner drink and we were not disappointed! The interior was awesome like an actual log cabin. The drinks were AWESOME. I don't typically like creamy alcohol, but I couldn't pass up trying the Gimme S'more cocktail - it was delightful. Not too strong with any of the flavors, they were balanced really well! The bartender even went slow so I could record a video of the flaming marshmallow - it was so cool and definitely reminded me of camping. I also tried the Captain's Apples drink and OMG is all I have to say. I really want to go back!

    such a cool little spot. I love how it's never really packed and the service is always amazing. drinks are always top tier! the smore one will definitely sneak up on you since it's so delicious!

    This is probably one of the coolest bars I've ever been too. The drinks are delicious, the music is great. Bathrooms are clean. The blonde bartender Rachel was super sweet! (We were here Saturday 5pm). The ambiance is amazing. It really feels like (the happiest place one earth). Really cozy cabin vibes. The decor is elite, mega aura vibes. Me and my husband were planning on hitting up another bar after The Cabin but ending up staying here and ditching the next bar because this was top tier. Will definitely be back! And I can't wait.

    Zero wait on a Saturday night. Cocktails were perfection. The bathroom situation (broken door lock) was remedied from last time I was there ~so that was nice to see. Always love the ambiance. Fun place. Try the s'more cocktail ~ it's what dreams are made of.

    Love this unique bar that always makes me feel like I am out in the wilderness! Their crafted "cabin-themed" cocktails are yummy, but they also have a full bar if you're just looking for a simple cocktail or beer :) It's super cozy vibes inside. The logs, the mounted animal heads, the fireplace.. it's all just very comforting!

    Loved the vibe here! Entering The Cabin was like walking into a ski lodge or cabin in Tahoe. The decor featured snow shoes, skis, antlers, Christmas trees, a fake fireplace, etc. I especially loved the bar itself, which had tree-stump slices on the ceiling. It wasn't super busy on a Saturday evening, and felt cozy and intimate. The most popular drink seemed to be the Gimme S'more, which looked awesome, but we decided not to get something super sweet/heavy before a concert. I asked the bartender if he could make me a drink without alcohol, and he didn't seem thrilled with the request. He said they couldn't make any mocktails, but he could do a Cherry Limeade, so I settled for that. Unfortunately, it tasted horrible. My friends both tried it as well, and agreed it was both too sweet and too sour. I only ended up taking two sips before I gave up on it. The cocktails my friends got were pretty good, including the Pearl and another drink with mezcal. Overall, worth the visit for the ambiance, but not the place to go for a zero-proof beverage.

    Pretty cozy spot, definitely fits the cabin vibe. I got the cabin mule and it was a pretty good version of a Moscow mule. They have TVs in here for when sports games are on. A lot of open space so I imagine it's a good place for socializing or having large group of friends.

    I absolutely love this place. The vibe is chill and the music is great overall. I do miss ordering Rainier beer in the small red igloo chest. Order their Smore drink, it's delicious! Trivia night is a blast; however, just know the place gets packed!!! I love the cabin's theme and unique design. It makes the place that much more memorable and fun overall.

    I love coming to the cabin! It is one of my must stop spots here in Sac. Good vibes, good music, and of course, delicious drinks. I will be returning again and again.

    I've been meaning to try this place out for so long. I remember when I heard a place like this existed nearby and I knew I had to go. The vibes are surreal in here. I felt like I was in a movie. This feels like a home that was converted into a bar. They played nothing but the hits! The people here are friendly. The drinks are delicious and decently priced. The s'more's drink was one of the craziest drinks I've ever had. Bottom Line/TLDR: killer soundtrack

    Do you serve hot chocolate or any non-alcoholic drinks?

    Is outside food allowed? As another person said it's impossible to reach them by phone..

    Yep, since I don't have a kitchen and allow you to DoorDash in

    How do you get in contact with them? The phone number goes directly to a voicemail that has not been set up. I lost something there and want to know if anyone turned it in.

    Is there still trivia on Tuesday?

    Yep! Come on down!

    Does anyone know if the cabin serves lunch/dinner food or appetizers? I can't tell from the website, looks like just drinks?

    Fantastic Spot To "Pregame" Shows @ Goldfields Next Door…read more SITREP We descended upon the Tack Room an hour before our show for "Ally The Piper" (both the classical AND heavy metal bagpiper extraordinaire) began her show! THE SETUP Goldfields is a charming, rustic country-western stylized saloon that serves up beer at good prices. But we weren't interested in beer and wanted quality cocktails. Hence, our pivot next door to the Tack Room! QUALITY COCKTAILS & DRINKS! The Tack Room specializes an amazing array of martinis, bourbons, and other deLISH cocktail drinks at really really reasonable prices! So this was an excellent choice to chill, thus avoiding the tremendous *noise pollution* we were immediately subjected to upon entering Goldfields an hour later for our show. THE LOWDOWN This is a quality bar with plenty of comfortable seating to relax and have quiet, intimate conversations.

It's themed around horse racing, but not in an overbearing or... tacky way. The mixologist was delightful and had great recommendations, the lights were dim, and the drinks were all on point. The highlight was the espresso martini, which is among the best I've had. It was reminiscent of the one I had at the Starbucks Roastery in NYC, which is high praise. The other coffee drink that surprised me was the Revolver. I always forget about what a good pairing orange and coffee is, and I'll be taking this one back home with me to try! Every other drink we tried was delicious in some unique way. The Pho drink was savory and surprising, the New York Sour was rich and flavorful, and the Practical Move was refreshing. Will definitely return here after dinner to sip an espresso martini for dessert!

Snug is themed around a modernized interpretation of an English hunting lodge--it's dark, moody, and elegant. It has a charming front patio that is made quaint by the high walls and an outdoor fountain separating you from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the bars in the area. Upon entering, you are transported into a dimly lit romance story. The Snug specializes in delightful cocktails that will wow your taste buds! Their menu is both seasonal and rotates regularly so it's a fun treat to swing by and find out what their currently making. One of my favorite recurring items is what they call a Hoosker Doo, which is often a spirit and amaro or apperitif. You can't go wrong with the Carribean Princess! Definitely consider Snug on your next date night or want something a bit different!

Sidle up to the bar and the staff is incredibly kind and patient even on a busy night. At the bar top, the den has a daily drink cocktail special that has yet to fail me. They are also known for their freezer box martini's that you can also add a "bump" of caviar to for an additional $5 (I've done this before and it is indeed silly, but the briny burst from the caviar is an excellent addition to a gin martini. Do it!). I have not eaten dinner here beyond grabbing a couple of their hot dinner rolls with house made compote butter, but Butterscotch Den is also known for their communal grill-it-yourself experience. In the dining area there is a large grill to cook your protein of choice from the menu whether it be a steak, hot dog, or burger. More often than not when we go to Butterscotch Den, there are multiple people grilling their food. Overall, Butterscotch Den is a hidden gem in the Sacramento/East Sac area but we're doing our best to bring as many people there. Also note that usually during the Christmas holidays, BD does the Christmas Takeover with seasonal drinks.

No complaints on this visit and I will be dinning in again in the near future.

    Im a bit disappointed in the happy hour food…read more I've been here several times for their drinks, but something just didn't click in my most recent visit. I came here for happy hour and ordered a handful of their items. Chicken Lumpia - over all I was pleased with how piping hot, fresh out the fryer it was. A bit thin for my linking but I appreciated there were 6 pieces. The sauce did not pair well. There was something off about it that isn't your typical sweet and sour; maybe the sauce was made in house. Sisig fries - decent portion of fries but fell short on the pork. Lacked an egg and didn't really meet the sisig flavors that I'm used to. You can definitely taste the zestiness of the lemon - nice touch, but other than that it's just fries with pork, red onion and green onion garnish. Hot dog - a $9 happy hour hot dog was the biggest disappointment. Sure the bread texture was good, toasted with a nice chew, but that was it. The dog itself was charged to my linking but it really didn't feel worth the money spent for its portion. Fries - 100% would get again. Cauliflower bites - I liked this too, flavor was good but such a small portion our table has to order two. Similar to the hotdog, not sure if it's worth the spend for the portion size. Despite the food not satisfying my cravings, the service was great. The young lady was helpful and was working hard taking orders, making drinks and delivering the food. The place was pretty busy at least the indoor area. Plenty of seating outside, but in this heat not sure if it's a good idea. Didn't see any misters but would be a nice touch to draw in more folks. Side note: some of the cocktails are premade, and can be overly sweet.
