The Tackroom is a quaint, dimly lit, well decorated bar in midtown. It has western decor with a Kentucky Derby Flare, and even serves drinks vintage derby cups! Not to mention, they open at noon on Saturday and Sunday which is wonderful! Sit at the bar, you will love the experience.
The staff at Tackroom is absolutely top notch, and works seamlessly together to ensure patrons have a memorable experience. The Bar Manager, Obie, is the mastermind behind all of the infusions, including Cinnamon Bourbon, Guava Cream, and the house Rum blend - just to name a few. His passion for his vision is clearly supported by his outgoing conversations with patrons as he offers samples of these incredible treats while cranking out the masterpiece cocktails in record time! Another bartender, Christian, brings out the vibrant experience through explanations of the cocktail inspirations and perfectly curated libations! The staff and their product are simply phenomenal!
The menu explores Signature Cocktails to include Derby themed names that do not disappoint! My personal favorite, Genuine Risk is a lovely well balanced cocktail showcasing Gin, Apple Brandy, Mint, Lemon and topped with a bitters soaked peach slice! The Catalog Through the Ages section showcases their innovative interpretation of classic cocktails from 1862 including some from the 30's, 40's and 50's! Such a fun marriage of history and modern day hand crafted cocktails! Have your heart set on something else? No problem, they will happily make you something special.
Theres nothing else that needs saying-- just GO, you will not be disappointed and may even chalk it up as a new favorite spot like I did! The quality of the cocktails, the energy of the staff, and the overall...
Read moreI feel like the Sacramento food and bar scene has definitely been stepping up it's game and getting better year after year and I will gladly put Tack Room on the list of hot and upcoming bars.
Seeing the videos all around social media with what looks like these well crafted cocktails, I was definitely intrigued. Located right next to Goldfields it's tucked in the corner and it was really dark so it looks like nothing is there (which we passed by a couple of times) but you'll see the bright green neon sign that says Tack Room right above the entrance.
I was greeted by one of the friendliest bartenders (I think his name was Bry). He was very knowledgeable and went through the menu with us. I ended up getting a Bees Knees at first and it was very light refreshing! It also came in a cute Flamingo glass. I ended up ordering up a couple more drinks and they were all delicious! I will be back to try the rest of their cocktails.
They have a Kentucky derby theme going on. There were a couple of TVs with jockey races that were from the early 2000s. They even had the 2000s commercials playing. Plenty of seating at the bar and tables . It kind of gave a speakeasy vibe and it's somewhere I can see myself coming in and hanging out with my friends. They also had a door that leads straight into Goldfields so if you're not ready to go home they got options!
A perfect welcome addition to Midtown. Great atmosphere, service and well crafted cocktails. I'll definitely be back and I hope to see this...

This equestrian-themed cocktail bar takes on imbibing like it's a History Channel documentary crossed with a Taylor Swift Eras tour, dishing out hits from the 1920s, 1980s, and even the early aughts.
They've got house-made concoctions that are so good, you know someone’s gonna try to copy ‘em.
I kicked things off with the Flameway Pho—shiitake-infused gin, pho spice-infused aquavit, Thai basil, and lime. It was like my mouth went on an international adventure. 🌏✨ But the Bubbling Over? A favorite amongst the girls, gay, and theys—vodka, guava cream, grapefruit, lime, and sparkling wine, topped with a smoke-filled bubble just begging to be popped. 🍾✨ It’s an experience. Luckily, it’s a short walk from the gayborhood, so get ready to make this your new go-to spot.
The bartender was friendly, informed, and had us sipping in style. If only everything in life was as easy as choosing the perfect drink at the Tack Room!
How I break down my star reviews: 1 - No. Not if it was the last thing on DoorDash. 🗑️ 2 - Meh. Maybe if I’m desperate, close, and high. 😬 3 - Mid. Not texting the group chat about it. 🤷♀️ 4 - Hella solid. Planning my next visit. 😋 5 - Shut up and take my money....
