    Me on my birthday a few years back having boysenberry beer
    Vanessa G.

    I love this saloon! Its got that nostalgic western ambiance, and its a great place to stop and have an adult beverage. The piano is fun and there is even snacks, like popcorn and giant pretzels. This is always our first stop when we get to Knotts. Service has always been great.

    One of the few drinking options at Knotts. This is located inside the Calico Park. I like the saloon theme and that there is indoor and outdoor seated. Grabbed us a couple of drinks for about $15 each which is of course overpriced but it was refreshing and it hit the spot.

    Small little bar located in calico park, wait time was less than 5mins before 12pm after 12 it's about a 10-15 min wait. Ordered two boysenberry margaritas and surprisingly had a strong kick! Only a available during the boysenberry festival. Definitely worth a try.

    Second floor view!

    This place gets better as we age. I'm anticipating that by the time I'll be bringing my kids to their Snoopy pilgrimage, this adult watering hole will become my favorite place to relax and rest my feet with a delicious boysenberry drink. The decor here keeps with the wild west theme, and the holiday spirit brings in a fun Christmas song performance. Definitely grab a boysenberry vodka smoothie to cool off on the second floor and enjoy the view!

    After riding some roller coasters , a nice cold alcoholic beverage sounds great. Took awhile to figure out a place to get one, but finally came across a worker , who guided us in the right direction. This is a cool saloon... line waiting outside , about a ten minute wait ... not bad. The menu is on the doors; so you can glance at it and have an idea what you want to order, when your called up. They do check id's , so be prepared. Bar tenders are very nice and friendly. Whipped up the drinks in no time. Tasty and refreshing boysenberry mojito- nice strong drink. The ipa was quenching and refreshing on a hot day. The saloon vibe is very appealing and the theme is on point. There's some table and chairs to sit at , and watch the entertainment on the stage , behind the bar. This is a nice place to take a break, cool - down and relax in between rides .

    My company's summer event took place at Knott's. My boss and coworkers wanted some cold, refreshing beer to help cool down in the crazy heat. We settled on Calico Saloon for its boysenberry beer because it's one of the boysenberry products that Knott's is known for. The saloon is cute with that wild west vibe. However, the boysenberry beer was just not amazing. We don't taste the boysenberry at all. If we did, the flavor was hardly recognizable on our tongues. Yes, it was cold beer and it got the job done, but the beer was also only slightly carbonated. It became flat very quickly. For $12/cup, the boysenberry beer was definitely lacking. There's no difference between regular beer and boysenberry beer that day.

    Stopped in for a drink and a pickle. Friendly bartenders and a nice selection of drinks made this a good stop! I will say, it could've been a little faster to get through here, and the menu wasn't posted outside with all the seasonal drinks, so I didn't know what to order until I got up to the bar. But overall, it was a positive experience!

    The stage and bar!

    They sell beer here & Sarsaparilla for the grommets! If you don't know what Sarsaparilla is its kinda like the Old Wests version of root beer. This past visit they only had Budweiser, BudLight, for around $10 & ShockTop for $1 more. This is one of the only permanent places inside Knotts that sells beer that automaticity deserves full stars! They also have a few snack foods you can order here but if your going to come here just get beer I mean come on you know how good it's going to taste after you've been chillin in the sun for most of the day dealing with those pesky kids wanting to see Snoopy. They also have the Calico Saloon Show here it pretty much consists of your typical old school saloon show with a piano it was definitely quite enjoyable to watch wile I sipped on my beer. We will definitely be hitting this watering hole up on one of the next visits to Knotts!

    Boysenberry Draft Beer
    Kevin B.

    Great to be able to have an alcoholic beverage while at an amusement park. This is the place to get a beer or a glass of wine. Came here to try the boysenberry draft beer for $10.29. They also have craft, domestic draft and import beers; sodas, bottled water, popcorn and pickles. Ordered the boysenberry beer and sat up in the balcony to watch the 2:00 PM performance. The seating is pretty limited and if you sit in the back tables in the balcony you will not be able to view the show. Very cute love story between Cameo and Dan. A lot of fun audience participation. The piano player, Fingers, was funny. The beer was very refreshing but I was hoping for more hints of the boysenberry flavor. Still nice draft beer. Maybe I needed to pair the draft with a pickle.

    Boysenberry beer and cider very good
    Alicia D.

    Very cool through back saloon style entertainment and service. Love the boysenberry festival here with cider beer and wine all boysenberry. We tried so many of the tasting card and loving it all so far. First time here for this festival liking it. Just here 1 hours and 30 minutes. Happy girl

    Boysenberry wine
    Julio D.

    Ever since I turned 21 Calico Saloon is my new favorite spot. I love the Boysenberry Beer and Wine drinking it while having entertainment in the saloon. You do get a wristband that says ID checked so that security knows that your at least 21 and over but they may still ask for ID. They don't just have adult beverages here they have boysenberry soda, Sarsaparilla and sodas to refill your souvenir cups if you have one.

Rock and Brews exceeded each category and came in clutch with some bonuses! First, and most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious! I had tacos, which were discounted for Taco Tuesday and allowed for a mix-and-match of chicken, beef, or pork. My wife had the Mediterranean salad, which she thoroughly enjoyed. We also shared a pretzel that was mega yummy. Second, beer! Lots of great choices, and if you prefer a mixed spirit, well, you're in luck, because they have plenty of those too. Third, vibes! Vibes like Cal Tjader came back to life. The place is decked out like your coolest friend won the lottery and created the perfect spot for all of his Rock & Roll lovin' homies to hang and chill. It is hard to pull off this level of focus without being a complete visual disaster or downright tawdry. Luckily for them, the designer understood the assignment. Well done, designer. You deserve a raise. Now, obviously, I'm a fan. One visit. That's all it took. But even after all of that goodness, there is one thing I must share, because it made a good experience a great one, and that thing is not even a thing; it was Matthew! Brother, thank you for being so kind and attentive. You are very talented, and without question, the quality of our experience is directly linked to your professionalism. I get the impression that no matter where you go, or what you do, the Force is always strong with you. Let's give Matt a raise too! And make him manager when you open the San Diego location.

They were tasty, too, but I can always appreciate a good looking burger that doesn't fall over after they place it on the table. I had the super spicy one and it kicked my bum. I can't hang like the old days. Very fun eating experience though, and I was able to finish every single scoville. Waiter was helpful with customizing (bread swap). French fries were fine. Will be back, even if it's just to get a bottle of their hot sauce . Only real gripe is that this place looks and feels like a sports bar/restaurant, it has over a dozen TVs... But the same thing was on ALL the TVs ! I understand the music theme is central appeal, but at least have different (variety) music videos on if you're gonna have 30 TVs in your restaurant. Make it interesting

Everything was really good. The food was solid, and the pricing felt fair for today's world--not cheap, but not outrageous either. Honestly, since it's inside a hotel, my expectations weren't sky-high, but the food pleasantly surprised me. I'd definitely come back, especially to try their brunch. The reason it's four stars instead of five comes down to the atmosphere and staffing. The restaurant sits right in the hotel lobby with no walls, so you hear everything--hotel guests coming and going, music playing in the lobby, the TV from the bar, and general foot traffic. If you're looking for a quiet, relaxed dinner, this might feel a little overstimulating. Also, our waiter (who was great, by the way) seemed to be doing the job of about three people. He was taking orders, bringing drinks and food, running payments, and even delivering room service. The poor guy was working like he owed the hotel money. On a Friday night, they could definitely use more staff. That said, the food was good, the service was kind, and I'd still come back--next time probably for brunch.
