    The awesome Chicken Taco!!!
    Diane P.

    I started going to Brickies in the early 90's when Jody owned the property and the bar was on the other side. I loved this bar with my whole heart. It was my Brickies family! I could go there by myself and feel safe and well taken care of. Then Jody sold it and my world changed and so did my family. The bartenders, cooks, the food all changed. I stopped going for a really long time, then I went to the Milk & Honey Festival and I was in the area and I drove by Brickies and saw an old friend in the parking lot. I went in and caught up with my long time friend Whitney. He caught me up on the years I missed. I decided it was time to go back again and order the food! My all time favorite was the Chicken Taco with dips & salas. I have to admit the taco was almost like I remember but even better. The chips weren't stale now it comes with sour cream. I told the cook how much I loved it and the bartender Katie was super nice & attentive. I even got to see my old friend again. I loved that the Brew Bike was outside and the guys were having so much fun inside! It's a new era and maybe this is a sign you're meant to come back and join the Brickies family! If you're in the area, stop in and order a drink and a bite you won't be disappointed!!!

    A great neighborhood bsr in downtown Reno serving up a phenomenal burger AND they have Guinness on tap! They have specials to keep things interesting but the burgers clearly rule the roost here Personal favorite is The Works. A bacon cheeseburger with an Ortega green chile! Delicious! They don't offer fries but have tater tots snd an amazing homemade potato salad. I would have probably given 4 stars but the Guinness puts them over the top for me!

    Its a local dive bar known for burgers. The food was good. Not the best ever though. I ordered the burger (no cheese) and was asked to choose a side (fries, tots and or some other choices that I cannot recall now.) I picked the tots. My dining partner ordered the Quesadilla w chicken. It was meh. Plain jane and quite pedestrian. I don't recommend. I had a Beer. She had the Nutrl. Drink meu looks as expected. Drinks were cold. Great staff. Lana and Katie. Both did a fabulous job with great, friendly attitudes and smiles a mile wide. Ok here's where it goes south and quickly too...... The menu shows one price for the cheese burger. (remember I asked for no cheese) My bill showed an increased price for the burger (minus cheese!?) I spoke with Lana and she apologized profusely. She explained that if you get tots as the side there is an up charge. Nowhere on the menu does it reflect this and when my order was taken, I was asked for what side I wished for. When I said "tots" she did not warn me or even mention that there was an up charge for this side. So, as most would, I assumed that it came with the meal as shown on the menu. She had mentioned that they have brought this to the attention of the management and owners but to the date of my dining there they have not addressed it. I have to say this is my A-NUMBER ONE PET PEEVE!!! Don not try the bait and switch. This is a shady practice and many diners, I am sure, do not pay attention to their bills to the extent that I do. So, take warning that you should check you bill against the menu when cashing out. Once again the staff was great. Respectful and totally understood and were very apologetic. (its close to tip time so....) Bottom line, the bill was adjusted. HOWEVER, It's the point though. This kind of practice is not cool. I might return but not until they make new menus or stop up-charging with out notice.

    I've only recently been introduced to Brickies, and it's quickly becoming one of my favorite local bars. It's what you would call a hole in the wall bar, but in the best way. There's nothing fancy about it, the bar and staff are down to earth, you will most likely be surrounded by regulars, and surprisingly I always see a family or two in here enjoying dinner, which I think is great. Brickies has something for everyone with a broad menu to choose from, drink specials, good beers on tap, and plenty of space. I've haven't eaten a meal here yet, but look forward to trying some of the food and from what I've seen and smelled it looks appetizing. Plan on updating my review after a meal, but I have nothing but great things to say about the bartenders, always friendly and attentive, and I always seem to strike up a friendly conversation with someone when I'm here. A must stop for a local Reno bar experience!

    Bloody marry

    This place has some good burger ratings so I decided to check it out on a late Saturday morning. Overall the atmosphere is great for a dive bar and my bloody marry was made great. Burger toppings came on the side which I appreciated. However the grill was dirty as my burger had black crunchies on it and I could taste the gas from the grill. Salad was delicious but my fork was dirty to begin with. Overall might be worth another try.

    Always a solid choice for breakfast or lunch. Small little spot. Full bar and delicious food. This bar gives you that small town feel. Lots of regulars come to watch sports and chat with staff. They've got drink specials and a full bar

    Bacon cheeseburger. Don't get more classic than this. And I'm a tots guy so extra points.
    Chris J.

    Food was exactly what I was looking for. Classic bar burger. Service was good. Attentive bartender. I mean it's nothing fancy. But for a good food and beer with a slot bar. My fav. The ambiance will do. Def gonna be back. I've walked in twice before and couldn't get a seat at the bar. Glad I did today.

    We were downtown last week and had the pleasure of eating at Brickie's again. The staff was great and kept us laughing and engaged the whole time. Love this hole in the wall. Give it a try.

    It has been at least 20 years since my previous trip to Brickies. To set the stage, it is a small locally owned tavern, 14 seats at the bar and 7 high tables. It is clean and screams sports, dive and gambling tavern. There is a good amount of off street parking and is just far enough away from downtown to stave off the riffraff. Very friendly staff that was 100% attentive throughout our visit. Our server was so attentive to all of the patrons that that he brought water to a service/seeing eye dog seated next to us. The issues we had to day was the food. We ordered tater-tots and they were out. I am not sure if the cook was unfamiliar with cooking the fries that they replaced them with, but they came out underdone, soggy and greasy. I think they were cooked in an oven as opposed to hot oil. The chicken fingers for the same reason came out cooked but with soggy coating. On the a better note the burger was cooked well and had a great flavor.

    this is my favorite dive bar and i will defend it with my life. the people: insanely nice. the burgers: hit the spot in a way that requires extra napkins and zero shame. the menu is pub food delicious and absolutely not good for you which is exactly the point. come hungry leave happy maybe slightly greasy. cold drinks good vibes no nonsense just a perfect little hole in the wall that never lets me down. i love this place and will be back forever

    Brickies Tavern on 6th is right downtown. The staff is over the top friendly & service is lightening quick. The bartender knew every customer's first name and greeted them as they entered. Being a tavern, they have every brew known to man. For the non-drinkers, it's Coke products. The bar has gaming. The food is incredibly excellent. Finally, a burger better than the awful-awful & there's no grease to soak through the bottom bun !! The music is low volume & the wall of TV's is all about sports. *All the inside tables are high tops, so the physically challenged be warned. The premise is aged but spotlessly clean. Don't let the neighborhood scare you off. Their parking lot is attached along with a covered patio. Once again, this is the friendliest business we've patronized in recent memory. This is a locally owned business. Please give Brickie's a try !!!

I had the grinder sandwich and ate every single bite because it was so delicious. The crack and crumble of the bread was like a banh mi sandwich but filled with Italian ingredients.

We definitely added them back to our regular list of places to visit for our bakery needs on the mornings and weekend brunch.

    Wow. If you find yourself in Reno, jonesing for a burger, Archie's is the place to go. We aren't…read moreresidents, but come up the hill a few times a year for various events. Until this 4th of July weekend (250/2026) we had never heard of Archie's. It was recommended to us and we stopped in on Sunday the 5th for lunch on our way out of town. What an amazing choice. I ordered their bacon cheese burger. Guess what? It was GIANT. It was delicious. It was perfect. Comes with fries but I got onion rings. The onion rings were perfect too. Largest order of rings I have ever seen. The burger (1/2 Lb I think!!) had nice thick bacon in every bite, two large and fresh slices of tomato, a big old slab of an onion slice, mayo and lettuce. I can't remember if there were pickles. It was the best burger and onion rings I have eaten in at least ten years, maybe 20. We will be back, EVERY time we are in town from now on. I can't recommend this place enough. Special shout out to David, our server. This guy made no mistakes. Laughed at all my stupid dad jokes, was attentive, patient while my companions changed their minds 36 times, and was friendly too. Says it was only his 2nd day on the job, but I wish he had been working for us at our restaurant (Hokkaido Noodle House) in Sacramento. He is a pro already, give him reasons to keep working for you boss. Don't worry, we won't steal him from you, we are retired and closed our joint 10 years ago. Rock on Archie's! You have earned a few new fans today.

Was surprised it had a second floor with a small deck and pretty decent views! Big place. Great Happy Hour Deals (half off drinks) and other specials. I haven't eaten breakfast there but the burger I'd put in the top 4 in Reno. It is giant diameter wise but the meat is the same amount of a smaller thicker burger which makes it no too hard to eat. I'd call this a Purist's Burger. Crisp lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, mustard, sauce. They went really light on the sauce to the point I didn't think it had any. Fries were excellent too. Price is very reasonable (that's typical near a college.) I've tried Royce, Juicy's, and The Parlor. I'd put Archies below Royce and Parlor but above Juicy's. Two left on my list are Armando & Son's Butcher Shop and of course Beefy's.

I was really excited to come here especially seeing other people with celiac leaving a review. I am very well versed in cross contact. I live me entire life managing cross contact and working through picking a meal I can eat. Some people just want to focus on the existence of cross contact. That was our server. She barely let me speak, she interrupted, wasn't answering my actual question about what kind of toaster they used and what grill the bread is heated on, etc because she wanted to repeat the existence of cross contact. Good lord. I was one second away from walking out. She was a really piece of work. She then upped the "nice" factor to call me sweetie the rest of the meal which makes me want to crawl out of my skin. Honestly, I am very flexible, I think this place may be better than my first impression but this server needs to be retrained to LISTEN to the customer and answer questions and not just make it an effort to drive people out. This is a few minutes of her time, and I have to live my entire life like this without treatment until I die, so a little kindness and active listening is really a minimal effort for a few minutes every now and then. 3 stars is generous. Food was ok. Restaurant was clean, but the servers need to learn to interact with humans better with more kindness and better listening skills.

Unfortunately, we were stuck back in the rear corner of the building on this visit. The vibes back there are not nearly as nice as the up-front dining. Service was still good even though we were out of view of the main dining area. We started with the cauliflower appetizer. Very well cooked, perfectly tender, and the Calabrian chili oil was perfect for adding some spice. We then ordered entrees, which included the duck duo and a Caesar salad. The Caesar is nothing to write home about. It's fresh and from scratch, but it's just a Caesar. The duck duo came with both duck confit and duck breast. The duck confit was unreal. So tender and so flavorful. The duck breast was a bit tough for my liking, but I really enjoyed the sauce they used on the dish. Most of all, I was shocked by how good the dessert was. We ordered the cast-iron chocolate cake, and it was unbelievable. The sauce that bubbles away in the hot cast iron was spooned onto the rich cake and topped with vanilla ice cream. Nothing better! I miss the old Liberty that used to offer daily specials and killer deals on pasta and pizza, but the new Liberty ain't so bad. It might be a bit more pricey, but still a reasonable option for a nice dinner out in Reno.
