I love it here. I got the "ass juice" in a toilet cup, & the drink tasted similarly to strawberry juice. The bartender was really nice. I enjoyed the ambiance of the saloon, but I wish I was able to see a concert there.

Fun bar with a lot of cheap drinks. It may be in kind of a sketchy location, but that helps make it cool to be honest. Double Down Saloon isn't a country bar. More like punk and metal to be like it. They also play cool music videos. Avoided this place for a long time because I thought it was a country bar. It's actually not of course. This is pretty close to UNLV. Lots of craziness. The best thing is the prices. It's about $5 for cocktails. There's a shit ton of whiskey. Hip atmosphere. There's screens up all over the place and they play funny music videos like Cheech and Chong and that kind of stuff. Cheap drinks and loud music. It's a pretty good description of it for sure. There's certainly better looking places but who cares about that though.

Slipped into this dive bar before dinner, vibes were unmistakably fun and funky. Drinks were exactly what you'd want, good price, strong, and they kept coming! The crowd was a mix of super nice and super drunk, adding to the authenticity of the experience for 6pm. It was like everyone there was part of the dive bar's character. Easily the best dive bar in Vegas, no competition!

My friend had found this bar somewhere on the internet & wanted to check it out. I was a little hesitant after checking out the pictures on Yelp but I'm always game for checking out new spots (to me) in Vegas. We had gone to a show @ the Virgin hotel this past Sunday afternoon & had decided to head over here after. Its funny because I have been to another business right across the street & can't say I remember seeing this bar when I was there. I already kinda knew what to expect prior to entering as I had seen the pictures & read some reviews on Yelp. Placed looked like the pictures. We sat @ the bar & was greeted right away by the bartender Samson and he took our drink orders & I had asked him if I could get a player's card. He wasn't able to get me one on his 1st try some computer issues but then had checked the system & grabbed my ID again and gave me a card. We gambled a little bit & had a couple of drinks. I had asked what was in the ass juice but it was a secret & he wouldn't tell me...lol So that was a No for us, though the toilet bowls its served in is sooo cute. $20 if you want to purchase one. There was a pool table & a photo booth. Photos cost $5.00. I LOVE photo booths & totally forget to get some pics before I left. They have a little vending machine with some snacks in it. Thank God I didn't have to use the bathroom because I was too scared to go in there & touch anything yet alone sit on the toilet seat, which I wouldn't have after seeing the pics...lol I don't know how this place isn't a big infection risks due to all the stickers & I'm guessing all the little germs that can/may crawl under the edges but I'm guessing the state allows this. There were a lot of money bills hanging from the ceiling above the bar that had been written all over & I did notice off to the side there was 4 poker machines all together which seemed like a cool area, one of them wasn't working. There wasn't many customers in there. We were probably there around 7pm on a Sunday night. I'd definitely stop in here again if friend's wanted to check it out or if I was in the area. Samson gave us great attention & service. Thanks!

The Ass Juice with corn, great music, funky punk atmosphere. Sit at the bar and converse with the bartender. Place is epic. Even Anthony Bourdain loved it.

Rare 5 Star Dive Bar Review One of the great dive bars in the entire country. I have been traveling to Vegas for over 25 years.... it is the one place I continually go and fine new and interesting things to do. One thing that has been a "staple" if you will is the DoubleDown Saloon! "The happiest place on earth" as they call it. Yeah a dive bar through and through.... grungy, dark, dank maybe even a bit scary if you really look at it. But honestly you are doing yourself an injustice if you don't give it a try. This is probably the most non-pretentious place I have ever been in. Everyone is welcome and no one judges. You are there for a reason... to have a drink or two, or three.... or more! Their tag line says it all "SHUT UP AND DRINK!" So put your on your jeans, your shorts, you suit, your whatever and go. Belly up to the bar and decide what you want, they have most everything, bacon martini..... they claim to the the home of it.... yes I have tried it, but actually, go for the house drink... ASS Juice (AJ)! Yes, not the most delectable name, but it is really good! Don't ask for the recipe because it's a secret and all the bartenders have their own twist. Go at the right time of the day and get an AJ and PBR special! Plan on hitting it really hard while you are there... well, buy the puke insurance for $20! Are you getting the drift here..... it's all about going, having a great time and making some acquaintances that maybe you never thought possible. Play some old punk rock on the jukebox. Go on a night they have entertainment and it is always free! Go in the morning, go in the afternoon, go at night, doesn't really matter, just go. Let your guard down and just have fun. Buy the tee shirt, buy the toilet bowl shot glass, but the zippo to remember what a great time you are going to have, even if it is you and the bartender, just make it your time to have fun! I do, every time! Thanks

Made it back to Double Down after a 4 year hiatus to pregame for a UNLV basketball game in Nov 2023 and brought a newbie. Never EVER change!
