The last dive bar standing in Placerville and a historical treasure! Amazing bartenders, small town feel and small town attitudes with a worldly welcoming vibe and old school prices. Gotta make it a pit stop on your tour of the gold country or passing through on your way to Tahoe! 😄 …

Great dive bar. Closes early when they feel like it. Or maybe bartender didn't show for their shift. Anyway, bummed that they closed at midnight in the middle of a drink and conversation.
