Salishack Tavern

Great place !! Awesome people ! Friendly fun owners ! Clean and good food ! Can’t wait to go back

Perfect coast dive bar. This is on par with the Sportsman in Pacific City, though the food isn’t quite as good. Free pool and shuffleboard. Great atmosphere.

Nice peeps here. A good place for a beer

Our favorite dive bar! When we are in town, which is several times a year, we love going here. Nice locals — cheap beer. What more could you want?

Salishack Baby Yeahhhhhh! Tin Roof Rusted!
Salishak sits on the right side of the road as you head south on Gleneden Loop, which parallels hwy 101. there were several cars and trucks parked out front at 3:30 this afternoon. I thought there must be a good party goin’ on inside so I parked my car. As I walked toward the front door the stale smell of smoke from yesteryear was highly evident. As I stepped in, I could imagine that there must have been clouds of smoke to cut through to get to the bar before the ban on smoking went into effect. I don’t mean that in a bad way but this place just had that feel to it.
Several regulars were chatting it up at the «L» shaped bar drinking cheap domestic beer. I sidled on in, pulled up a bar stool and ordered a mirror pond (gasp!). I could tell all the people wanted to ask what horse I rode in on, why was I drinking a beer I couldn’t see through and what the heck brought me through the door! They were either too polite or too drunk to ask. I soon found out that it was the former. It was a very friendly group of regulars and I was chatting it up in no time about the weather, unemployment issue at the coast and the fact that NOAA was going to bring some good into the area ($$$).
There is a pool table, a shuffle board table and probably the biggest big screen tv on the central coast! A nice patio out back and signs all over the walls that cause one (me at least!) to chuckle with amusement. The owner is a very friendly woman named Patty who bought the place while she was in town taking care of her dying mom.
This is a dive bar to the greatest extreme and I mean that in an oh-​so-​positive, I-can’t-wait-to-get-back sort of way! I am a sucker for a dive bar, especially on just about any coast. I will return, possibly even this week!
And there really isn’t a tin roof, rusted or otherwise!
Cheers!
