Came here to see Marcos Reyes and Friends. It was a great event! The atmosphere was fun and divey! Which i love! The bartender was super friendly and offered great service. It was a packed house and they did a nice job taking care of their customers.

Love this throw back Bar. Hanging at Karaoke tonight with Bear. Adds fun to the Rustic decor and the Cool locals. Owner is fabulous, along with her bartenders make you feel welcome. Unpretentious atmosphere and good drinks, without killing you. If you want glitz and hipster vibes, Run the other way. If you want to relax, and get your chill cheers on. Come on down

Mrs Millie is the star of the show. she is friendly but firm in not let shenanigans amuck. She has put together a history lesson with the photos and art and made the old train station in a great environment. The saloon is clean and patronized by decent working class folks. There is decent amount of domestic and craft beers to please everyone. The bar is well stocked with a fair amount of premium liquor.Cash only but there's a ATM if you need cash.This a low key place but well worth your time. If your looking for a rowdy place - this isn't the bar for you.Give Mrs Millie and the saloon a chance and you will be surprised.

This place is one of the coolest bars I've ever been to. It's like an old train station hinky tonight with an amazing billiards table, one of the stiffest pours I've ever had for six dollars a drink, and they were running Stoli as the well when I was there. Bartender was super cool, and they even had outside seating and smoking. They didn't have live music the night I went, but they have a kick ass stage and wooden dance floor that my lady and I danced in most of the night can't wait to go back! Like I said I didn't get to see a show there, but their sound setup is top notch. I bet shows sound amazing.. Keep on Keeping on Rustic Rail!!

Attended the public reopening of this iconic Bakersfield venue and it did not disappoint. Very excited to see what the new owners have in store for this old fashioned honky tonk Bakersfield staple. The live music show opening night on Friday was genuine and refreshing. The dance floor is huge and sound is truly high quality. Super excited about more live music available in Bakersfield. They had a few opening kinks to work out. Giving five stars because because I don't drink beer and only criticism was that there were four of six taps functioning. Seems like an easy fix. Excited to see what they do with this place. We will be back for sure.
