The Freight House

The Freight House is a relatively new addition to ‘places to go’ in Reno nightlife, and definitely welcome. They filled the hot-spot niche that incorporated sports, live music and food. I have been to the Freight House on several occasions, and each time it was for a completely different occasion.
• A date, we ended up taking part in the outside ambiance and enjoyed the night with drinks from the outside bar and played ping pong and sand bags (I think that is the name of the game?)
• A large birthday party, Joe ended up reserving all of Bugsy’s Sports Bar for an intimate and large celebration. Bugsy’s was an ideal venue, offering drinks, appetizers and enough room to socialize.
• Meeting for drinks, before an “interesting” night of Burlesque, I met up with friends for some appetizers and drinks at Duffy’s Ale House.
• An Aces game, the balcony offers great views of the field and a relaxed atmosphere where there is no need to crawl over people to grab another beer and pretzel.

Tequila anyone? Visit the Arroyo Mexican Grill on the bottom floor and partake in one or maybe two of their 100 tequila choices while noshing on fine Mexican food. The 250 Lounge has a more industrial feel with live music and views of downtown Reno.

If you have yet to check out the four establishments at the Freight House District, I suggest you make it a must on your summer to-do list. A heads up if you visit during a game, there is a small cover charge to get in, if you don’t have a game ticket…with a ticket you can freely pass in between the Freight House and the ballpark.
