The White House — Restaurant in Carson City

This place is truly a hidden gem in the heart of Carson City. I've been meaning to check it out ever since they opened up a little over a year ago and I'm kicking myself for not stopping in sooner! Not only is the 1898 home that it resides in historic, filled with all kinds of antiques, photos and paintings to check out, it just just oozing with cool factor. Maybe because it was winter, cold and rainy when I came by with my wife but the place felt so warm and welcoming and of course, our bartender was super friendly and attentive. Heck, I even got to meet Travis, the owner of this place and found out that he used to live in this home and used his time here to fix it up into the White House that it is today. Now, I should note that the main reason for coming here is to imbibe and preferably with friends and they really have a great selection of beers and more importantly for me, bourbons to choose from and as you can guess, they do offer plenty of specialty cocktails as well. The main bar up front has enough seating for about 6 people and there's a cozy 4 person table by the lovely large window but there's also a second bar around back and with plenty of seating in the main room. That said, if you come by on a nice day, there's tons of seating and 5 fire pits outside to enjoy your drinks and watch the sun go down. There is a stage that does bring in live music from time to time and while they don't serve food directly, they do have an outstanding taco truck that parks out front on Thursdays and a variety of other trucks come on the weekends. Need I say, this is a place I would highly recommend you check out for yourself. You won't be...

Had heard such great things about this place so a friend and I checked it out on a Friday shortly after they opened. There were about 4 other customers. After about 40 minutes I got up to find where we could just get a glass of water since my friend was getting super thirsty chatting for so long, let alone being offered a drink by someone who worked there. The lady at the bar said she’d be right with us. I wasn’t sure why she couldn’t just hand me a glass of water but I went back to our table and of course we sat there waiting another 15 minutes with maybe 5 other people in the whole place. My friend got up and got us waters and shortly after we left simply because the service was so awful. The place outside where I parked looked like someone’s dirty garage. Idk what the hype is : / I’m glad they kept the horse statue but won’t be going back...

This is THE place to go for a drink right now in Carson City. It's low key, but very high quality and reasonably priced.

The staff is very friendly and know how to bartend. They have a good selection on tap, a massive selection of bottles and cans, all of the standard spirits, and have just about every niche liquor for any drink you can throw at them.

No food, but the awesome atmosphere makes up for it: There is generous outdoor seating and live music and they are pet friendly. The decor inside is stolen straight from THE White House and there are plenty of seats of various comfort to...
