I was only there for a short time trying to see the boxing match between Haney/Garcia but it was one of the most hospitable times I've had in my life. Sandra (co-owner) went out of her way to accommodate us in only a Carson city person would do. A food truck readily available to feed the drinking crowd. A band was playing in the back so well I thought it was a record, and my only regret is that I heard about this spot earlier in my trip and that didn't have more time. During my whole time there I was floored with the hospitality of ALL the Carson city establishments. I look forward to visiting again sometime in the future, and I definitely look forward to spending more time at the Tap Shack.
This is one of the most fun places to drink in Carson City and it has a great local vibe that I absolutely love! It really is the kind of place that is easy to miss being that it's located off the main drag but that's part of what makes it so cool. It's like you're imbibing in a secret hideout meant for you and your friends. Inside the Tap Shack, there's plenty of seating at the bar but there are also high tops along the wall that make it easier to hang out and chat with friends. Of course, there's plenty of seating outside and a lot of fun to be on a nice summer evening. Drinks are reasonably priced, the service here is super friendly and if you follow them on Facebook, they'll let you know when live music and or food trucks will be there. I really can't say enough about how much I enjoy this place and whether you're a local or just looking for an enjoyable evening as you pass through town, I would highly recommend that you give it a try as well.
Nice bar, fair prices, great staff. Dog friendly. Nice patio great live music It’s the only place in Carson City I like to hang out.
Great time with Great friends. Amazing bands!!!
The vibe is more Bay Area bougie. Not Carson tavern style. Over priced and don’t leave soap suds on the drinking glass.
