“ Another of my favorite get a way bars. Located in Boulder city, this is my Monday night go to. Mr Manny hosts a comedy show every Monday night, which I just featured at. B rad and all the other staff are some of the best guys I've ever met. They are friendly, but let you know how it is if you break the rules, and for that, they have my respect. They offer pool, darts, some arcade machines, as well as a separate area put back. The drinks are great, great prices. They offer some snacks as well as cigarettes for you smokers. If you ever have a chance to, I highly suggest stopping in. Tell em wayne sent you. ”
“ No food but small, quaint, sports bar. Friendly atmosphere and the drinks were really good for a nice price. Went there for comedy night (Mondays) and had a ball. Parking was great. ”
“ Tourists from the UK and during a couple of weeks holiday in Vegas we popped over to Boulder City a couple of months ago. Me, my wife and a couple of our friends stumbled across this bar... wanted to go in as looked like the real deal Americana bar we’ve seen in movies (neon beer brand signs, big pool tables, bar stools (not a thing in England)). Didn’t disappoint at all. We felt really welcomed. Even created a bit of space at the bar so we could sit together. Oh and drinks were cheap as chips! Loved it. Heading back in May 2024! This place is number 1 on the list at sundown! ”
“ I love coming to this bar after work to relax, have a great drink for great prices. Patch is the best bartender ever! Great service, super friendly and makes sure everyone has a great time. We only go on when he's working, because without him it's just not the same. ”
“ I went to The Backstop with my sister last night. It happened to be comedy night, which we hadn't known, or expected. There was no cover, the acts were mostly very funny, the bartenders pour good drinks (drinks are cheap)! They have a few pool tables and I think I saw a dart board too. Perfect small town dive bar. ”
“ Fun spot to play, plenty of room for dancing and having a fun time. Pool tables are on point. Bar is a cash only bar but they do have an ATM inside with only a 2 fee. This is Definitely the bar that is open the longest in town. Stage is good and the bartenders are on par with the establishment. I will definitely be going back. ”

I wasn't able to stay for karaoke which is my fav but I'm sure it's great. Definitely come to this place, black white whoever (I'm black n felt welcome). Also the pour was everything!! ”
