Truckee Bars and Breweries
Who Doesn't Love a Great Drink After a Hard Day of Skiing?

Truckee Bars and Breweries! A great drink is the end of a perfect day on the slopes in winter time, or a great day of exploring all the outside activities that Truckee has to offer. (Share YOUR Truckee drinking stories below and become part of this website!)

When I first moved to Truckee, I was single with two kids, (1st grade and 5th grade), and I wasn't making enough money at the time to hire a babysitter to go out very often. My visits to Truckee now typically include a nice drink with lunch or dinner!

On a recent stay with my friend at her Donner Lake cabin, we stopped off at the Bar of America on our way back to the cabin for a drink. It was a great time!

Below you will find a listing of the Truckee Bars, and the Bars at the Village at Northstar that the Truckee Travel Guide will cover. I've also included Bars and Breweries from the Squaw Valley area since it is so close to Truckee. I will be adding additional information on each Bar and Breweries.
