Editorial Review for Pine Cove Tavern – by Holly Glasen
The Scene
The twisty stairs can be a little daunting on the way up, especially if you're contemplating the stumble back down. Upstairs, the decor is reminiscent of a ski lodge, with tightly clustered faux-marble-topped tables, dark wood, a gas fireplace and wall of windows overlooking E Street. The tables are so close that it can be hard to maneuver after that third shot. And you'll want a third; different drink specials run every night, ranging from $1 to $3. For more active-minded patrons, Pine Cove offers three dart boards. Nine beers on tap and happy hour from 2pm to 7pm, coupled with the Hot Spot game, make this an affable place to spend your money.
The Crowd
The business crowd usually clears out by 8pm, making way for the college crowd that surges in later.

forget about the happy hour listed in previous reviews...they were of the previous owners.and are not offered now.....Partner and I showed up for "Happy Hour" today 11/7....saw the bartender for about 20 seconds (as long as he could stay off his cell phone)...He did whip out some very lame drinks though and then disappeared...never saw or heard of him again...any more service wasn`t available...since we were the only people in the joint, i guess we should have made our own second and third drinks...I hope the young fella isn`t dead or something. I am sure that he is a very cool guy (to someone).. but too busy and indifferent to be social with middle aged patrons..I have lived in that neighborhood 1st in 1966 and have been in the Pine Cove illegally (under age) since 1971..they had much better service serving me when i was 18 years old.. Very sad to see a Sacramento ICON go down....There used to be people in there ALL of the time...every hour they were open. Now...ghost town...reaping what it sows.
