Visited this place while sightseeing through the town. It’s been very well preserved. The atmosphere is like that of being on a film set for an 1860s western. Live music on certain nights- check their website. There’s also a variety of appetizers, coffee and alcoholic beverages are

No food, do have popcorn though. But the employees, atmosphere, products and beverages are awesome. We always load up on stuff when we go there every year. Highly recommend for price and fun.

The Bucket of Blood Saloon in Virginia City, NV is an authentic piece of Wild West history! Stepping through those swinging doors felt like time traveling to the 1870s mining boom days. The historic wooden bar, antique decorations, and period photos create a genuinely atmospheric experience. I enjoyed a cold beer while listening to live piano music that perfectly matched the saloon’s vintage vibe. The staff were friendly and shared fascinating stories about the building’s colorful past. This isn’t some touristy recreation – it’s the real deal with genuine character and charm.
A must-visit stop when exploring Virginia City’s historic district!

Great place to sit a spell! We took the V&T Railway from Carson City to Virginia City and found this gem of a saloon!
The staff was very nice and attentive. The spicy bloody mary was excellent! The view out the back window was awesome! They have a good selection of food and drinks, as well as t-shirts, hoodies, slot machines, etc. Even saw a guy walking a pig outside the front door. Haha!
We loved the laid back old west atmosphere and the unique decor throughout. The hanging chandeliers were exquisite. And did I mention that bloody mary? Yum!
Highly recommend!

We stopped in for a beer and learned that their Bloody Mary is the specialty of the house. Corrie was our bar tender. She made the drinks to our spiciness-liking. They were so delicious that we had a second round. The band was fantastic. I requested the song JACKSON. Free bowls of popcorn. Notice the antique jewel colored pickle jars on shelf above the liquor bottles. I highly recommend a visit to this saloon.

Was told I had to have a Bloody Mary here. It did not disappoint. Nice view of the mountains and some live music. Nice grey afternoon. I liked checking Virginia City out.

This saloon has lots of charm and ambiance! They serve drinks, not food. We bought sandwiches down the street and then sat at a table and ordered drinks at the saloon. The best table is in front of a picture widow with a great view of Six Mile Canyon. Lots of Old West charm!
