A fun restaurant in this historic setting. I had the well reviewed nachos and a sarsaparilla. The nachos were a whole meal. Well worth a visit. The staff was friendly and helpful. I will return.

Very friendly, excellent service. The owner has a lot of knowledge about the saloon and the area. They have cute little scrap books about the long history of the place. It was a great stop for us! This town is really neat to see. I wish we could have been there a lot earlier to explore. Most of the town is closed by 5.

Its a classy old bar that also serves food as well. Hamburgers, nachos and thing of that sort. Also, they have live music on certain days/nights. Its a nice place to take a seat from the heat and experience an old time bar atmosphere. The employees are very nice and the patrons are just happy to be here. Totally worth a bit of your time if your just passing through.

Nice stop every time we come to this historic setting to get a sarsaparilla. Yummy Have never tried anything but the sarsaparilla, but is a nice locale that feels like stepping back in time also. Staff had always been very friendly and helpful every time we've gone.

Bring your family for some historical fun at Columbia State Park. Bring your appetite to JB Douglass Saloon for some delicious Tri-Tip and Pulled Pork sandwiches. You've got to try their square, crispy Tater tots, draft beer options, sasparilla, and coders are also popular. The historically decorated Saloon with the stage coach can't get more nostalgic.

Haven't tried the food here, but there's usually good beers in tap, or bottles in the cooler. Great music often. Update: place has been closed for a while, sign was up at one time "Opening Spring 2025", guess that didn't happen. Hoping it reopens at some point.

Great spot for cheap eats. I had the amazing beef chili. Love the atmosphere, really felt like it was the 1800s.
