My husband and I have come here 3 times in the last month. We first came a few years ago and loved it, but forgot about it until last month. We're obsessed with their onion rings and buffalo wings. They always have a great beer selection. We've also tried the Tavern Burger, Cowboy Burger, Nachos, Meatball Sandwich, and Pulled Pork Sandwich and they're all to die for. We have a baby who we bring in her stroller and there is plenty of space for it too. All around great environment with wonderful service.
This place is becoming one of my favorites! I've gone a couple of times and it hasn't disappointed. You walk into a casual dining area, there's also pool tables. It's been too cold to explore the patio area but I'm sure it's just as nice. Lots of yummy options to select from. My go-to order is Fish and Chips. If a place has a good fish and chips, 99% chance the rest of their menu is just as good. I like how the batter isn't overwhelming and they have a good crispy taste. The fries were cooked to perfection. Loved the tartar sauce, very flavorful. I like how they actually had a sour beer on tap-- thank you! We went during happy hour as well and it's a killer deal for the price! The artichoke dip was my favorite appetizer, I can't wait to have it again. The service has been great-- they were friendly and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. You can tell this place definitely makes an effort to have a good dining experience with delicious food. Go check them out!
Great space for watching sports. Good food and friendly service. They have a really nice outdoor patio with heaters and TV screens with comfortable seating.
They have a great variety of local ciders and beers as well as many other drinks. The food is quite delicious, and you would be amazed how good they are with their sandwiches. The gentleman servance was kind, Quick, and paid lots of attention to detail. It is a nice atmosphere inside with lots of Nevada decor.
Don't let the exterior turn you away! I thought we were walking into a dark dive bar but nope! We met up with some friends here and upon walking in I was so surprised with the cleanness, upbeat atmosphere and friendly service. It's a great place to watch sports and a bit to eat. The food is 2 bars above "bar food". They have healthy options as well as massive gourmet looking burgers. I had the veggie wrap with fresh cut fries and loved it. Portions are generous so I had leftovers. We will be back!
The outside is unappealing, but it's better inside. Typical bar feel with darts, shuffleboard etc. The service was a little slow, but the food made up for it. Tried the elk burger and it was good. There are quite a few menu options to include a meatloaf melt that I'll tackle next time. They have a few tvs that aired an NFL game. Overall good experience.
We are always looking for a different vibe for a dinner snack / happy hour. I have been meaning to get back to Bighorn Tavern since it had been quite some time.. We finally did and found that it is still kind of unique. Tavern? Yes. Locals spot? For sure. Dive? Yes and no in all the right ways. Casual, upbeat, and eclectic watering hole would round out a description. The happy hour is Mon-Fri from 2-6pm and features a little off of well drinks and basic wine, 50% off beer (they have Pabst Blue Ribbon) plus a food special of any 3 of their snacks (reduced size) for $15. The service was good and the crowd was lively. One note: The scotch egg is quite good but not traditional. It is hard boiled so no runny yolk goodness when you slice into it, in fact it comes opened.
This place is definitely the spot to watch any sports game. It's great for a big group or solo. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are always friendly when I come here. The food is fairly decent for bar food. The drinks are tasty and the price is decent. I love their burgers and mimosa deals
We have been here a few times but always for a private event. This time we did both the private event but then stayed and enjoyed dinner inside. They do have an amazing outdoor area with TV's and fire pits. It was perfect for the chilly day! Service outside was amazing and attentive. Then after the event we went inside and had dinner! Again our service was great. They also have multiple TV's inside as well as pool tables and shuffleboard. It is known for its "bar" atmosphere but very kid friendly as well!! We ordered the Scotch Egg as an appetizer and I got a burger. The scotch egg was slightly overcooked but still had great flavor. I would definitely recommend it. My burger was cooked to my liking and was pretty tall!! While it was a tad difficult to eat and slightly messy it was very satisfying! We will definitely return!!
