We found a new tavern on the map, really an old haunt, but a new refresh uplift! The place was new and shiny like a penny and the people were super friendly!

A place to check out if you're in the area.

We frequent about 5ish bars total around the area Reno and Carson and we always come back because of the vibes and community. Drinks are amazing and delicious which is a bonus. I had my first and now only place I get bloody mary's so damn good I crave them. This is the place i dunno what else to tell yall come down here best service and atmosphere. Also i will note they have popcorn which is just so great to snack on. And the owners decorate and paint everything with such love and detail. It's all the little things that make this a revisit.

I walk in with intent, sit at the bar, order my drink...right after I took my first sip, I looked up and saw the "Cash Only" neon sign and realized I didn't have any on me. The waitress (I wish I had caught her name) was incredibly kind. I explained the situation and told her I'd go grab cash, and she was totally understanding. I came back and made sure to tip her well, she deserved it. I asked if they served food, and while they don't, she went out of her way to recommend a Korean spot next door and Red Dog Saloon for pizza. She even said it was perfectly fine to bring food back. So I did exactly that, grabbed some Korean chicken, brought it back, and paired it with a hot apple cider cocktail. Perfect night. Great drinks, delicious food, good music, and genuinely friendly people.

I was up in VC for the highlands games. This actually could be a great dive bar if you're a local…read more The bar tender Melanie is awful. I have been tending bar for over 15 years. She pays attention to either the locals or her friends I would assume. Need to pay attention to drink costs. She tried to keep cash and gave me the wrong change then gave attitude when I wouldn't tip. With my experience tending I could tell she would over pour or not even ring up people and give free drinks away. Not sure if the owners are cool with that or not but with the great prices the bar offers I'm not sure there is a lot of profit. Anyways rant over as this just makes us actual bartenders who know how to make a real drink look bad.

They have two pool tables, free popcorn with all different kinds of salt and seasonings and gaming at the bar. Being a huge dive bar fan, I truly enjoy coming here. My only complaint is that it does get smokey in there if the doors are closed. But, when the weather is nice the air movement keeps the smoke down. They also have outside seating and occasionally they have live music.

It's quirky AF, but isn't that EXACTLY what you want? One part legend, another lore, add in all the best parts of a dive like colorful locals, super friendly staff, and cheap drinks, plus nostalgic and vintage vibes, and an enigmatic but eventually welcoming and warm owner, and you've got the Buck Inn. When you arrive, be sure to glance just past the bar and see the sign for "Lizard Xing" and look for the attack lizards inside. If you peek outside in the backyard you may see a casket. Not sure what it's for, and maybe don't ask, but certainly check it out and look around for other fun! Lastly, make sure you look above the last chair of the bar, next to the patio door. They call it the "Asshole Corner" and it was super fun to sit a friend down their and snap a pic without them knowing! We drove over the mountain on back roads in SXS UTVs to get here, and the effort was well rewarded. I'm not saying this is a destination BUT if dives are your thing, then make it one!
