    Healthy pours, no nonsense staff, and lots of ambiance if you're looking for a local dive bar with…read morehistoric flare. Tim is a great bartender and rolls with the punches - whether literal or implied. The Mine Shaft is the a must if you are looking for night life in downtown Nevada City.

    The service at this place is trash, and the bartender clearly picks and chooses who he wants to…read moreserve based on what they look like. ​I was standing right at the bar waiting to order, and the bartender completely ignored me. He wouldn't even make eye contact and blew right past me to serve a white guy who had just walked up to my right. When he finally looked back over, he looked right past me again to my wife. She literally had to point at me and tell him, "He's the one ordering." ​While we were sitting at the bar (had to move because the overhead fans create a ridiculous wind tunnel at the tables), a Hispanic guy walked in. He was in a great mood, carrying a bag no bigger than a small basketball. The bartender immediately stopped him and said he couldn't have the bag in there, basically refusing to serve him. Since the guy was alone, he just left. ​It was a terrible look. Between getting blatantly ignored while standing right in front of the guy and watching how he treated the next customer, the bias here was obvious. If you aren't the right demographic, don't expect decent service.

    Kickstands up people, this place is a biker bar with style. The owner has a real affection for…read moreextravagant decor and I love it. So much to see and decor ranges from frogs, dogs and sea creatures and yet it works. Located in the low mountain area of Colfax and a bit off HWY 80 so there are more locals then travelers and I think that's the way they like it. They keep the food simple burgers and pizza - that's it. For drinks full bar and they pour a good strong drink. For those who like that sort of drink will find this the kind of drink they like. Main drink I saw being poured was Peach schnapps, Crown and Redbull. Now for the food, we ordered the large combination pizza. It was better than expected and we only got through half of it and took the other half home for lunch the next day. By the way the the bathrooms are sparkling clean and very unique. The tile work is amazing, true art. Would tell you more but come and find out for yourself. Parkings a snap and the views here are spectacular!

    Have been driving past for 30 + years, finally decided its time. It no longer is just a biker bar…read more We went late afternoon to grab a beer and burger. May be eight or so people sitting at bar. They have three bars. Two inside (very dark) and one outside on deck overlooking Cape Horn and Americcan River. We were the onlookers peopele ordering food. We both order cheeseburger and a fry to share. The fries were crispy and hot. Burger was undercooked and bun was soggy by the time i was able to eat 1/3 of it. I can tell this is a place everyone comes for the drinks only. I wish i could give it better a better review but just such a dissapointment. I love the facelift they gave their exterior a few years back but would reallly love to see the inside scrubed clean and updated. outside seating as well. well we've been but their will be no need for a return visit.....
