A local and long time regular is worried that one of her favorite Reno spots Davidson’s Distillery on 4th street not far from the bus station might have to close soon based on her own experiences.
She sent in these photos of regulars enjoying an outdoor game of corn hole, writing “they are not getting the traffic that they used to. I was here the other day and it was dead by 11 p.m. on Friday.
I love coming here because it has an old school Reno dive bar vibe but also everyone is really cool and nice here. The bartenders are all really nice.
Drinks are still reasonably priced unlike most of downtown and Midtown. A shot is $6-$9, they have draft & bottled beers and range from $4-$6. Mixed drinks are $8-$11. They have pool tables and decent bathrooms and slots.
They will have some bands tomorrow and I’ll get some more photos.
Also I love coming here on Saturdays when the bands are playing because it’s not a super huge venue and you can still dance like nobody’s watching."
Do you have a favorite place you would like to promote with photos and a description? Never hesitate to reach out with your reviews.
