38 Best Cocktail Bars in Reno

“Love the food and the atmosphere!“

“Our party of 5 enjoyed every bite! First class service, very friendly and lovely atmosphere. The rotisserie chicken was awesome. Cooked perfectly. We loved the fried halloumi and savory doughnuts to start. Don't miss the pistachio baklava soft serve for dessert -- amazing!“

“Absolutely one of, if not THE best meals (4 of us each had different items) we have had. Lunch was amazing. Hot, fast, delicious and the combos of flavors, my God! Highly recommended!! Great margarita and fantastic service!“

“So much fun and the drinks are amazing! I recommend the espresso martini and the mint cookie drink with an extra shot!“

“innovative and delicious take on pastas and pizzas, great and friendly staff, attentive and prompt service. Their Boulevardier is on point and one of my faves.“

“I've never been to Naples or even New York but I've worked for old New York Italian pizzaiolos and have been making pizzas for decades now. This is the best pizza I have ever had. The crust is perfect in every way, it's the perfect thickness, perfect chew and the flavor is absolutely the best I've ever tasted. I don't know if it's the flour or the water or the conditioning it goes through or all three, it's just simply the best ever. The sauce is simple - lightly seasoned tomato sauce as you would expect, not overdone in any way. The cheese is real mozz, the best you can hope for. Blown away by the simple perfection of Cosmos pizza! (The Negroni on tap was wonderfull too!)“

“Really great food and wine! Super romantic vibes and a great way to enjoy live entertainment! We had the avocado baguette, mixed nuts, loaded dippers and arepa. The baguette was very good and fresh. The mixed nuts are a great options if just wanting drinks and something light. I really enjoyed the arepa but wish it came as more than 1. The loaded dippers were okay. Not my favorite. Overall, i think foodwise its a little overpriced and small portions. I understand the single use recyclable/compostable dishware but feels like it brings down the higher end vibe they are going for with the menu and decor. Will definitely be back but probably will be more just for drinks and light snack.“

“The atmosphere is just brilliant here. First we just wanted to have a few drinks here, but we definitely did not regret to have snacks as well. All the staff was very friendly and helpful, we had a very good time here. No matter what you pick from the menu, it will be great, I can assure you that!Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options.Parking: Easy parking in the area.“

“Kind of weird vibe bar. Tiki drinks, Uber uptown decor, steampunk/brewmaster bartenders. Got there early enough that all the tables were still empty but still had to go to the bar to order. Then once it filled up the bartender came by and checked on our table. But then it took forever back at the bar to close out our tab. My co-worker wanted a different liquor in one of their standard drinks and they refused to make it. Although they were making lots of fancy complex drinks. That seemed odd. I'll go back but doubt my co-workers would. It was mostly filled with dates or groups of women. So they nailed it if they were going for that.“

“I frequent the Fe. Never disappointed. The clam chowder last Fri 5/17 is THE BEST I’ve ever had. And I’m 72. I am eating my way through the menu. Choices I didn’t recommend are ones I have’t tried yet. Looking forward!!!I LOVE this place. Santa FE has fed me well since 1967. I have success parking at the train station. I feel so at home. Gaven and his crew are rockin’ it! Salud! ??????????“

“This is going to be an amazing restaurant for the North Valleys!“

“Love stopping here for drinks!! They have a huge selection and there is always something new for us to try! The bartender was friendly and the place was very clean and nice. Not too loud so you're able to hold a convo! I'm not a huge beer fan and there's still always something yummy for me to have. Will definitely be back“

“We were travelers who wandered in on a warm summer day and were welcomed by a crowd of locals, a friendly staff, and great drinks - what more could we ask for! We are fans of a good local dive bar and this one was a perfect place to grab a cold drink. There were all the typical beverages you would expect beers, wells, and mixers - but this place had a surprising cocktail list too - my favorite was the "Kick Rocks" and raspberry lemonade drink with an explosive candied rim - pop rocks! A trick I will be using at my home bar from now on!“

“Fabulous staff and the food is off the hook! Have the buger“

“Seriously so good! Our server was awesome, he mentioned being the manager so I think the place is in good hands. Food was outstanding and some of the best pizza we have ever had. We live in Winnemucca but will be back as often as we can be!“

“Oh wait, my following review is for their restaurant and brew pub: Super casual, great Tahoe-rustic decor. Party room that's really open anytime. Tap room next door, outdoor patios, good brews and food. My one and only wish...better fries. They use a sweet seasoning that disappoints every time. We don't go there for fries, but we go less because of them.“

“Came in before a show across the street at the Cypress. It was about 8:30pm on a Saturday. The place was about half full. The bar is nice and long for those of us who like to sit at the bar, there's some tables, a pool table, and lots of photography on the walls. The vibe is really fun and much like their sister bar , the hideout, it's a very welcoming staff and atmosphere! I believe there is a patio but we did not venture outside since it was freezing! Great place to start your night, end your night , or enjoy a drink while downtown“

“I felt bad for the bartender as it seemed like she was the only person working on a Saturday night a couple of weeks ago. This was our first ever visit, so maybe this is the norm. I found it annoying that I had to go to the bar to order drinks versus having a waitress serve us at the table we were seated at. It isn't a big place, but the lines got a little crazy when trying to order drinks, and a waitress would have made that experience better. We will return again. For what it's worth, my friends referred to this is the "cougar bar."“

“The Pepper Mary extra Spicy.... Habanero-Jalapeño Vodka, Celery Bitters, In-House Made Bug Juice and Bloody Mary mix. The Garnish is Fire! But, then again so is the Bacon Salt and Torched Bacon!! I highly recommend checking the Pignic Pub and Patio out!!“

“Small but FUN! I was there for a fundraiser, but will definitely go back as a stop along the way...“

“This is Reno's premiere cocktail bar. The first thing you'll notice when walking in a very large wall stocked floor-to-ceiling with high-end spirits. If this is too overwhelming for you, just talk to any of the staff and tell them what you of drink you prefer. They'll come up with something sure to please and extremely unique. If you're feeling a little chilly, try an El Chapo. Looking for a classic cocktail? How about a martini served up made with Monkey 47 gin? The staff take a lot of pride in their craft and it shows in every drink they make. This is really more than a mere bar. This is a pub where friends meet, discuss their daily lives, and catch up with each other. There's lots of places to get a drink in this town, but there's only one Chapel.“

“Very friendly atmosphere. Great entertainment“

“Atlas Landing is a great place to meet up with friends. The wine list is great and the employees are super friendly.“

“My husband and I had a belated anniversary dinner at Biggest Little Steakhouse on 10-19-2023. This was our first visit, and we were not disappointed. We were greeted by Brian who was very personable and had a great sense of humor. He explained the menu, providing many nice details, and explained their service model (we were sitting outside and after taking our drink order, he explained that we were to place our order with a staff member inside the restaurant and that our meal would be brought to us). We had a filet mignon, peppercorn sauce, and red wine braised mushrooms. The filet was very tender (Brian had explained that both the filet mignon and pork chop were prepared using a special cooking method) and the mushrooms were tasty – good enough to take home our extra. We also enjoyed the focaccia bread, although we preferred it with the herbed butter that came with the filet and olive oil & vinegar we requested after trying the special blend they usually serve with bread – nothing wrong with it, it just wasn’t to our taste. The service was excellent throughout – responsive without being intrusive. The warm cookies that were served with the bill were a nice finishing touch. We’ll be back again and are especially looking forward to trying the Beef Wellington bites and pot pie. We also liked that the music at a nice volume level and the style was reminiscent of a speakeasy. Don’t forget happy hour daily from 5-6 and again the last open hour!“

“Great speakeasy-ish bar in Midtown. No secret to getting in, just need to know how to get there. Cocktail list is extensive. Converse with the bar staff and they'll steer you in the right direction. You're not going to go wrong with anything. If you find something you need to take home they have a very well stocked liquor cellar with bottles to go- stuff you will find anywhere else in town though you'll pay for it. Cheers!“

“like being at a Hogwarts-style pub complete with a library of old books and board games. And of course, the drinks are fantastic! gotta try the chocolate cake shots -they are the bomb!“

“Fantastic food I had the Cowboy Cut steak it was cooked to perfection Erika had Chicken Piccata Our server Bonnie was great she was on us from the word go very timely and kind! I highly recommend this place…“

“This was my 2nd time in this location first experience wasn't that great because of the woman on shift. Today Omar made it a great experience and I am enjoying my Fat Tuesday drink. Thank you Omar for your impeccable customer service, appreciate it. My friends and I will definitely come back because of you.“

“Fun and comfortable atmosphere. Great people and nice bartenders. Khesandra, sweet and good with everyone. She has a eclectic taste in music always good tunes on the juke box. She also runs a pool tournament every Friday night at 7pm. She works Tuesdays, Thursday and Friday day shift and Alan very funny and good people. He works Sunday and Monday nights.“

“Great place to go. Scotty makes awesome cocktails!!“

“GREAT FOOD,GOOD SERVICE,NICE ATMOSPHERE“

“Popped in here on a Halloween weekend Saturday afternoon (dressed as Beetlejuice and Lydia), and we had been mostly having beers, but this looked like a place for cocktails, and indeed it was. Had some great seasonal concoctions, including a lychee one and a spiced apple one. The bartenders were cool, the atmosphere was nice, and the drinks were great (and reasonably priced.)“

“Love the vibe everyone is great and they have great food“

“Great atmosphere! Great people! I feel safe when I come into the bar alone. I have met so many people that I call family!“

“Small bar but it's open I think about 24/7 decent size seating area seating around the bar and they have one pool table pretty the bartender is very friendly all around good place to have a drink and play some pool or just shoot the s***“

“Server was very attentive. She noticed me and when I asked for a menu, gave it. When I was ready to order (body language) she noticed and got my order and we checked out right away. There is lots of seating. It's an island type bar with seating all the way around it in a rectangular shape. The selection of craft and on tap were great.“

“I've always loved this bar. It is incredibly underrated IMHO, and that's ok because it means more space for me to hang. For one, the location is perfect. North end of midtown, walking distance to restaurants and other bars and shops, parking surrounding the business, make this a home run. I like the small outdoor patio here. The high walls help you forget you're surrounded by other buildings and cars whizzing past. The interior is chill. There are long communal public tables with bar stools to sit at, and I enjoy seeing who is going to end up sitting with me when I choose this area. The bar is long and offers seating as well, and there are even a few small nooks with more intimate seating options as well.But we are here for the drinks, and these never let down and the prices are hard to believe, in a good way! I stick to the classics, and they make a mean old fashioned. Their spirits selection is diverse and they do have quite a few allocated bottles, and price per pour is typically reasonable too! This is such a solid local spot and I'm glad a special event brought me in again. I need to visit more often.“

“My bartender young as not only beautiful she mad a mean Long Beach. It’s a Sunday night and it quiet but people are friendly. There is the option to show off your voice with karaoke!! Definitely will come back next time I’m up to see my grandson who is the reason I’m here ! He was just born and I’m having a drink to celebrate his coming into this world!Thank you for the hospitality!Definitely stop bye if you have a chance“
