The Stagecoach Inn — Restaurant in Vista

Little hole-in-the-wall bar in the Vista Way/Emerald interchange area. Prices are pretty cheap as I gave them cash for some drinks and let them keep the change, and the bartender was quite surprised. Do people not tip here?

They have quite a few pool tables. We went with a group of maybe 10 people for happy hour on a Friday (HH is 3-6:30pm). Bartenders were great. The patrons weren't too rowdy. We played darts and occupied what used to be the smoking room (last time I remember about 15 years ago). Now you need to smoke outside.

Parking is mostly in the back. There is some up-front but for security sake I wouldn't park there (break-ins more likely if no one is looking at your car, unlike the back parking lot which always has people outside smoking).

Drinks were good. Not too weak and not too strong. Try the "-196" strawberry seltzer in a can from Japan (made by Suntory). I think it was $6? Pretty good and 5.5% ABV. They had a Hazy IPA on draft that was pretty good. Few other taps too (SpaceDust, other domestics).

The Coach houses three 7ft. Diamond tables in great condition. There's enough room for a 4th table - something the Coach should seriously consider adding. Most people bring their own cues but the house cues are decent enough. Good mix of people, old timers, youngbloods, a few dogs ( service, of course) and the rest.

Stagecoach hosts APA and BCA Pool Leagues Sunday evening starting at 5:00 and Monday through Thursday nights from 7:00- till whenever league is over ( sometime between 10:00 and midnight). Tables are open for play after league. Free pool weekday mornings 8:00am until noon ( nice!). Also, on premise is a Led Zeppelin themed pinball machine! How...
