I may be extremely biased but I love this place! Maz and Annette are the owners and I love them! Once they get to know you, they treat you like family! Open late night and they have amazing drinks. Mimosa crawl, perfect! They have a Mexican candy shot that I have never heard a complaint about! Ignore the bad reviews! More times than not when somebody has a bad review, it's because they were HORRIBLE patrons and not the bartenders! Great music and great people as long as you checc yourself at the door! read more

Love this bar I hit it up every time I'm in Reno the staff is very friendly and makes you feel like you're welcome. The drinks are amazing and strong plus well worth the money I would say. The pool tables are very well maintained and only a dollar to play. I also like the fact that the atmosphere is friendly and not overwhelming nice chill vibes. read more

The Arlington Saloon - Great drink selection - Bars Near Me - Reno, Nevada

They have really stepped up this location. Through the many years of living in reno, this spot has changed ownership, names, etc. more times than I can count. They expanded this bar from what it used to be. It's much more open and there's way more seating. They've got a foosball table and also pool. The music was mostly country but we had a very fun time. read more

Staff is always so friendly and the drinks are awesome. If you want a song played just ask they will play it for you!

Had such an awesome and amazing time at the Arlington saloon last month! Went twice in a weekend! Loved it! Great vibes and drinks!

This is such a great bar!!!! I had such a great time. The staff is so fun. Annette is the best! I ABSOLUTELY recommend this place. I can't wait to visit again, when I'm in Reno. read more

Pours still short. Glassware still filthy. Taps still warm. Owner still angry at the world. But they are consistent in being bad so I guess Arlington Saloon has that going for them. read more

Don't let the poor reviews fool you. I went here maybe a couple months ago and had a great time. Unfortunately I got scammed on a fake bar crawl that this bar owner helped me realize. Shout out the owner btw for that. Overall drinks, music, and service was on point. You wanna just kick back and chill come here. read more

The diviest of dive bars, but in the way you like it. A great place to feel like a regular the first time you go. The bar wenches are wonderful, beautiful and they never let you go thirsty. They're better than that awful lame wife you have at home! Lots of fun themed nights and specialty drinks too. I suggest the Jello Shots! They dangerous! read more

I came from out of town. Went to another bar first that was highly reviewed and it was not for me. I saw a negative review for the Arlington that sparked my interest, and I felt like the bartender was in the right and didn't deserve the negativity, so I went to check for myself. This is was MY kind of spot. And the bartender who received the negative review was the person who served me. Would give 10 stars if possible. Goes to show that maybe you're the problem, not the bartender. read more

Love this bar! Great ambiance, clean bathrooms, killer drinks, best bartenders in Reno! Annette and Bailey! read more

The service from the bartenders here is always excellent. A truly great bar experience every time. They have the best pool table in downtown reno without a doubt. Not the mention the delicious free water that is triple filtered. I highly highly recommend this bar. read more

I work downtown often and Arlington is my go to place for an after work drink! Great drinks, good vibes and immaculate service! Best pool tables in Reno by a long shot! If you have a free evening stop in and check out one of the best bars in Reno! read more

Dude at the bar has no people skills. Acts like he works here but looks homeless. I played a song on the jukebox but when my song didn't play I asked if the jukebox was on and they said no....thanks no thanks. read more

I'm super drunk right now thanKS to a friend and the owner operators at the Arlington Saloon. My apologies In in advance if I don't come grammatically correct. In downtown Reno what was known as Monolith, Blind Dog and maybe other few names that I can't recall. you can find the new and improved ARLINGTON SALOON. Same layout as before ,but with now different staff , drink menu, and an extended side room where Hookava used to be. I really like this place more then what is was k own as. This bar has a lot of history. Comparing it now to what it was it's 200% better. I used to play APA 9 ball tournaments here with the shadiest pool table you can think of. Fast forward to present time their table is nice and straight ready for any professionals or ametures to enjoy. In the extended side room there's another pool table under wraps that's used for only special events. The Foosball table brings back memories of late nights and drunks games. The lighting is dim ,but the tables are well lit. Whatever sound system and playlist they have brings me back to when hip hop was really real. The bottle selection is very nice and ready for the mainstream selections or for the alcoholic professionals. My friend had a hard strawberry lemonade made with high-end strawberry sweetener that made it taste like real strawberry lemonade with no alcohol. Kind of dangerous ,but delicouse. We tossed back a few shots of watermelon vodka with a seasoned rimmed, mixed with Tapatio and secret sauce. Check them out if you like to play pool, listen to real hip-hop,and for specialty drinks. The spot for young adults and the more mature. Peace read more

The Arlington Saloon - a hand holding a drink - Bars Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Worst service I've ever had 0/5 if I could. Bartender waited until I was the last to serve me and complained I did not tip.

Margarita straight from the margarita bottle that I can buy from Walmart? Seriously? Nothing authentic about this place. Save yourself some money and get a real drink before you come here. read more

We used to love this bar. It used to be so much fun now there are some new bartenders who actually scared us away. I would not recommend any girl to go this bar in a small group or literally anyone . Staff is rude to the point of being uncomfortable and aggressive. Easily can get a drink at any other bar like our bar or play field. It really is a shame since it used to be so fun. Staff used To be fun and amazing and everyone loved their energy. Now, people who work there are yelling at customers. Absolutely not. We will never come back and advise everyone you stay away. The crowd is off due to the attitude the staff brings. There are so many better places to go who will not yell at you for no reason. read more

I've been here through many different changes in ownership and name changes through the years. The Arlington saloon monicker has kept the layout the same as the old Blond Dog Tavern with a full bar and creative specialty cocktails. We came in before having dinner in a Friday, so it was fairly early and the bar was EMPTY. The bartender seemed to be struggling a bit, but considering she probably worked early into the morning, I couldn't blame her. We ordered our beverages and I was surprisingly happy with my choice. The Hops & Rye has a nice depth of bitter with just the right amount of sweet and a little IPA flavor without being too overpowering. read more

Me my girlfriend and 2 friends went here last night. Same bartenders and staff all the time. So flippin rude, bartenders had rbf and when we would ask about a drink they would show no interest or be mad we were even ordering. I'm trying to play pool, can't find the pool chalk, tiny thing. Owner screams at me, "it's right there!!!". Like I knew. Not recommended if you wanna go somewhere and not feel like someone's breathing down your neck. Gotta be better. read more

Seriously the only place I ever wanna go to! The updates to this place are so amazing! Its always clean and my favorite night are when the children stay out at any bar but this one. It's definitely a place for adults who like to have a drink and be around other adults. Other reviews are most likely from children who ruined everyone else's time. I've never been let down there and the owner gives a shit about his establishment and his customers! Stop in and say hi sometime worth it! read more

5/5. Owner are dope. Much respected. Good vibes everytime. If you like a good bar on end nights this the vibe.

This place takes over from Blind Dog and Ampersand before that and Se7en before that. It's much brighter and livelier in here w a much less weird selection of TV programming, i.e., no oddball 90s movies. They keep the pool table and add hard Kombucha in addition to all the usual beers and spirits. Great, friendly service and vibe, and you don't have to worry about some old smelly dog trying to sniff your balls read more

The owners and his multiple bouncers are on one. Like low key crazy shit. Multiple accounts of verbal abuse to customers. It's not only disrespectful, but it's also unprofessional. I genuinely genuinely do not recommend coming here. The elder man, I believed name Naz, is demeaning, degrading, aswell as unprofessional. He lacks the genuine welcoming and good aroma of a saloon and bar. Take your time, money, and energy somewhere else. read more

Great bar, atmosphere, and staff. A fairly new bar fast becoming a staple of Reno. Early in the evening you'll find a chill spot with good conversation. As the night rolls in you'll find it packed, at times with a line outside. After other bars close out, their staff come here read more
