Have You Seen the Zephyr in Midtown Lately?


1864 Tavern

The 1864 Tavern is currently under construction at 290 California Avenue. 1864 Tavern is the creation of two Nevada Air National Guard C-130 Flight Engineers. They are both veterans of the Iraq and Afganistan wars and proud native Nevadans. They invite you to come down to California Avenue in April and celebrate Nevada.

Pizano's Pizza

Construction continues at Pizano's Pizza, though they were not on site when I stopped by so no photos for now. However, I found their web site and menu online, and their other two locations are in Oregon. They join Slice of the Peak (during Baseball season), Noble Pie Parlor, Pizza Reno, JJ's Pie Company, Campo and a few others I may be forgetting because I am writing this at midnight.

Interior Demo Permit for Vino Building Downtown

An interior demo permit has been issued for 236 North Sierra, which is the Vino building.

    I like the new face of Zephyr. I'm still flabbergasted at how they kept the old name and changed everything else 180 degrees. Perhaps they should call it Zephyr Cocktail Bar or Boyd's Bar. They really do have one of the best mixologists in Reno and some of the best cocktails in town. I tell them, women like windows. They don't like creepy caves. Nice to see them open those windows up.

    Looks like Sierra Tap House expanded into the old Truckee River Eats and Sweets. The interior wall was opened up, ant there was a new pool table and tabletop style shuffleboard inside.

    Any word on what's going into that building next to the original Hub. Saw a sign on it yesterday reading 'Death and Taxes: Provisions and spirits'

    Death & Taxes is a new cocktail bar by the owners of Midtown Eats. They have been working on it off and on for quite some time. Should be good considering the quality of cocktails at their current place.
