The Trap

I've finally made it to the trap for the first time I know, I know.... I've been meaning to check this place out for several years now but it's over a 30 min drive from where I live. It's wild that the floor is slanted the way it is but it's give the place some charm and different and no you want loose you balance or fall unless you are 2 sheets in the wind. Lol! The trap is under new management and there is a nice outdoor patio with plenty of space especially if you want to enjoy those summer nights There is a wide drink selection of beers and a few selections of wine. There is limited parking but you can park at the school after hours. The service was fantastic and the bartender was so friendly had small talk and made sure everyone is taken care of. My friend and I had a great time and u will definitely come back to meet up with friends. What a great way to enjoy New Year's Eve 2024 really to walk into 2025. Happy new Year 2025 everyone and see you on Yelp! :)

Trap burger is sooo good was craving another burger and it was def worth it ! Alittle pricey but worth it $12 for a trap burger it's huge it's juicy it's flavorful! All made to order , and it was quick ! Ordered fries portion was so big I didn't need to get two orders , def can share them if you want! Seasoned well I ate waaaay more than I should have ! A must try in the pocket on riverside ! Just got take out didn't go inside ! Hidden burger place for sure !

Our 2nd stop for a new years beverage. The trap is a local watering hole under new ownership. As janky as ever with a new patio with heat lamps everywhere. The floor is still slanted so that hasn't changed. They have an "almost permanent taco truck, lots of pool tables and if you're in luck live music

This bar is definitely the place to go. Feels cozy and they have a great deal on beers!

Ok, The Trap has won my heart. It's our now go to spot and we know some of the locals by name. I even joined their pool league. Sarah is the best and honestly can't complain about any of the other bartenders either. They have their own food trailer that serves bomb food at a decent price. I'm obsessed with their BLTA, I've even considered getting it from DoorDash but decided to make the short drive and hang out instead. They also have daily specials like $5 mustard dog Wednesdays or fish and chip Fridays. Their "Trappy hour" is also pretty decent too.

Bennett Adam and Sarah are the best great service personable incredibly kool and karaoke here on Thursday and Saturday are super fun!!!!

It's been a while since I reviewed The Trap, so it seems like a good time for an update. This old relic survived the pandemic, the construction of a school next door, an unfriendly school owner, and the transition to new ownership. I think it's safe to say it will be with us for a few more years. The new owner have been a positive influence on the place. They've done some much needed renovations to the bathrooms, the back patio, and installed taps! That's right, the finally have draft beer. There's also some dart boards outside, new picnic tables, a new fence, and a food truck that's usually parked outside. They managed to do all that and preserve the local dive bar feel to the place. It's still a bit run down, unpretentious, and a cool place to stop for a cold one... or two... Who's counting!

First time at this bar, super fun environment for kings games as they offer $1 off your beer if you wear kings merch.

I stopped by The Trap the other night and honestly, the food and drinks alone have me hooked. If you love bar food, this place has it all--fried pickles, fried raviolis, club sandwiches, and tacos that are all top-notch. But what really made the experience was the bartender, Adam. He was super friendly and made the whole visit even better!

Amazing place, super friendly and amazing service, oldest dive bar in Sacramento, can be a sports bar plays all the kings games, pool tables and darts are available
