The service was very good and it's a comfortable interior with great brick walls and fun decor. We ordered toasties which came on amazing sourdough with a very satisfying crunch. The fillings were good but needed some pickle or spicy contrast since there was a lot of richness. It was good but just a little too much. I would love to go back and try the sliders. The fries were good but I wanted a little more crispness. read more

Popular spot in town. As a heavy expensive drinker I've gotta say I'm never upset at my bill at the end of the night. Bartenders are always sweet and attentive and the food is GREAT!! It's always crowded bc it's THE spot! Nice inside. read more

We were in town to spread my parent's ashes and found the kind of spot they would have loved. Great service, good food, and a variety of beers to choose from read more

Great pizza takeout. Looked like a fun place to hang out and sink some suds, but alas, family waiting for the goods wanted pizza warm! Busy staff had my order hot and ready and got me served swiftly. read more

Small bar setting serving good, simple food In a warm ambience. I particularly like and come for their vegetarian calzone, although their primary focus is as a social bar. Service is quick and friendly. read more

Stray Dog Pub & Cafe - Stray Dog vegetarian calzone. Artichokes, tomatoes and vegetables in a ranch sauce baked in a crust - Pubs Near Me - Elko, Nevada

Very cool place. Our bartender was amazing. She took our bar order and food. The food was very good, and good beer!

This is a townie bar that has a couple dog-friendly tables out front on the sidewalk. Depending on the time of day, you will see all sorts of locals cruising the street and revving their engines as they go by. The food is actually pretty good (however they were out of pizza dough). The pizza must be good because a couple people went in a D came BA K out immediately when they found out there was no dough tonight. A couple drunk guys came out at one point and stumbled to their friend's car. One guy was on the phone and when he ended his call, he spiked it in the middle of the street like he had just caught the game-winning touchdown. Entertainment! read more

This was a nice little surprise to find in Elko. Kind of reminds us of Joe Jost's in Long Beach, CA, except it is out in Elko! The atmosphere was great, beer was cold, and pub snacks were tasty. The woman behind the bar was very hospitable. read more

Good food, reasonable prices, and the staff were all friendly and helpful. I will enjoy the Stray Dog again.

Poutine was yummy snd that's hard to find! Great service, neat old building just don't drink the tap water. I know, it's a bar, but we were traveling don't judge. read more

The Servers here are so nice and so kind. They HUSTLED. It was a packed night but they still got us our food and drink in a timely manner and were always so kind. They are hard workers! I was not a fan of the food. I ordered chicken tenders but they came out a bit wet and cold. The crunchy skin fell off the chicken in one bite and it was kind of hard to bite through the chicken. Outside of the food though, this place is a fun bar to find yourself at! read more

Excellent service! Excellent beer selection and excellent Jalapeño Poppers. The poppers are homemade and baked. If your looking to grab a bite to eat, pizza, hot dogs and great snacks and a beer, I'd definitely stop here. read more

Great service. Great selection of beers. Good food. I was able to order a dairy free meal. We'll visit again!

Worst place to go to. Horrible food and slow service because the cook and bartender want to chit chat. No one should stop here if your traveling on the highway 80. read more

can't tell you what the food taste like. Ordered over 2 hours ago through a delivery group. called the restaurant after it was 30 min past delivery time. I asked if our food was ready, thinking the delivery company was not picking up the order and I was just going to pick it up. I assumed that well over an hour since the icon said our food was cooking that it would be done. I was told they had a big dinner rush and they hadn't finished our food yet. another 30 min passed and I received an apologetic phone call from delivery guys saying they still hadn't received our food and the delivery person has been waiting this whole time. first and last time getting food here. had to send my kids to bed with a bowl of cereal instead of the sliders I ordered them. Edit-did eventually get the food, it actually tastes really good. Very mixed feeling right now. read more

Lucked out on this one...our trip to CA had a stopover in Elko and Stray Dog was just a short walk from our Airbnb to excellent pizza and 18ish taps. Very impressed! read more

This bar is great they are dog friendly and the food is great! The beer is soo cold and on a hot day yes!! We will be back. The service was great also! read more

Stray Dog Pub & Cafe - Combo Calizone - Pubs Near Me - Elko, Nevada

I had dinner here on a Saturday night. They have some local beers. The sandwich I got was unremarkable. The service was somewhat inattentive. This would have been a decent spot to just get some basic food, but that was before I saw the offensive, misogynistic poster with their business name printed on it. It wasn't just a poster they happened to hang up. It was something they intentionally made for their business. Come on. read more

Just stopped by the Stray Dog Pub for an order to go that we had called in. Got there a little early so had a beer or two, cold and tasty. They have a great variety of beers on tap, and a full array of spirits. Place was unusually slow for a summer Saturday, but Chelsie, the bartender greeted me with a smile and visited with me while. We enjoy the personal pizza's for my wife and because we can order a variety and not have. Mike and his staff have a gem of a business in downtown. DOWNTOWN ELKO NEVADA. read more

Eat place in elko to have a beer as they are non smoking. Good is pretty decent and good taps.

This place was really good! Ambiance is neat, friendly staff and a bomb Mediterranean pizza! Husband said the nachos were good too. I'd come back again! read more

Stray Dog Pub & Cafe - Pubs Near Me - Elko, Nevada

Good spot in downtown Elko. 4 stars for a decent tap list. 3 stars for the food. Good service, friendly and low key. I went for beer and wings and I'm pretty picky about wings. I like my wings a little crispy with good texture. The wings at Stray Dog were the opposite of what I like. They were big (OK, cool) but with really rubbery skin. Not good. Didn't finish my order. No carrots and celery, no choice between ranch and blue cheese. Just got some ranch in a little plastic tub. read more

Love the pizza and wings. Usually good service, and for Elko, this place is great. I like the atmosphere, and their are some pretty good beer choices. Give it a shot! Wanted to add... went here the other night, my wife ordered a White Russian. Took a little longer than usual to come out... then, I saw the bar back rush in the front door after having run (literally ran) to a local store because they were out of half and half. They gave us the drink, and comped it due to the wait. Fantastic service, they could have just said "we don't have any half and half" and we would have been okay. Love this place. read more

The bartenders are super friendly, and they have karaoke on Saturday nights! Drinks are cheap, and the selection is very good. I went to this place last Saturday when it opened at 3:00pm. I ended up coming back for karaoke at about 11:00pm, and met three nice girls who eventually took me to a strip club. Since the story surpasses a PG-13 rating, I just wanna say that The Stray Dog is fun, and it'll be my goto spot in Elko from now on. read more

There is nothing wrong with this place. However, is it the greatest place in earth? No. If I lived locally to Elko, it'd easily be a good go-to joint. The beer selection could satisfy all, and the pizza that I had was pretty delicious. The singular time I went to the Stray Dog, there was only the bartender acting as the server as well. Despite being understaffed, everyone was satisfied and the barkeep did very well. This review is like seven months old. read more

Note: only open from 3:00 Tried to come here for lunch, but was closed. I hate when restaurants don't update their times. read more

This is a pub style bar with a full menu consisting of American favorites like hot wings, cheesy bread and shrimp cocktail as well as build your own pizza. They have a bunch of beers on tap including shocktop. I had the cheese bread which was on a thick pizza dough baked until the cheese was bubbling and served with a side of marinara. It was good. It's right around the corner from the Western Folklife Center and Theater G. You can pop in for a bite before the show at #elkocowboypoetry. There's street parking, and a large lot around the corner. read more

I really, really want to love the Stray Dog again but it doesn't seem likely. Once upon a time they had a great menu and a simple business concept: a basic beer bar where you could get some quality grub. These days the menu changes often (as more items get dropped), the hours are random (Lunch? No. Holidays? Not likely. Dinner? Maybe.), and they've added annoyances such as karaoke, video quiz games, and live bands...which wouldn't be so bad if the venue wasn't basically a hallway (which it is). One reviewer stated that this used to be a funeral parlor, but that is not the case. It was a flower shop that later moved into the funeral parlor that was located where the "wedding chapel" now sits. read more

This place is nicely done up. The local beer, something mountain, tastes bloody fantastic after a hot day in the car. Food was not bad. As per usual, our new little boy charmed them all by not waking up, and just looking cute. Elko could be such a great town, but looks like they ripped half the place up to make a very large car park in the middle. The bars surrounding the car park have a couple of unsavoury folks stumbling around muttering "you think you're better than me?". On the plus side, we saw some very genuine looking stockmen with some v. groovy wide brim hats. read more

I'm partial ;) love this place!! We like to think we cater to everyone's tastes in beers, mixed drinks, and our own authentic "pub grub" including gourmet pizzas, sliders, poutine, and much much more. Lots of laughs and great times at the DOG!! Karaoke every Saturday night is always a blast! read more

Beer selection and the pizza is the best in Elko! This is my favorite pub in town. The staff is always fantastic and treat the newcomers as well as they do the regulars. I love that is it quaint and non smoking as well. read more

I don't understand how this place got 4 stars. The food was average, the beer selection was ok but not good, the staff was friendly but it's what's to be expected. This is not a 4 Star pub and the food really needs work. read more

Nice little bar with lots of character, we ate there and they had good well drinks. Lots of folks here watching the game, getting some pizza, and just smiling and hanging out. My coworkers went here for a couple nights and it was nice. read more

Came in after shopping several bars. First thing here is great service. Then add some good food that we got late, only because our bartender offered to make it for us. Then think about a great beer and whiskey selection and you know this is the place to come in Elko. Be smart, drink here! read more

Fabulous! The food and service were outstanding! I loved the vibe in there. Just what I needed on a Friday. Thank you!

The beer was cold... That's all I have to say in the good. The bartender had the personality of a rock. Never said two words to our party. Was in a foul mood and treated everyone as if it was their fault. (Breanna needs help) read more
