Pignic Pub & Patio

The Happy Hour Lowdown

Pignic runs happy hour Monday through Friday from 5-7 PM with $5 well drinks, $5 draft beers, and $6 house wine. But the real star is the food deal: a basket of 4 wings and tots for $10 with your choice of dry rub or Korean gochujang, served with ranch or bleu cheese. Those Korean gochujang wings during happy hour? That is the move.

Why You Are Actually Here

With 28 craft beers on tap, Pignic takes its beer selection seriously. This is not a place with five boring taps and a prayer -- it is a curated lineup of craft selections that rotates regularly. The gastropub food elevates everything beyond typical bar grub. And on weekends, the bottomless brunch at $24 for two hours of mimosas, micheladas, or bloody marys (with entree purchase) is one of the best brunch deals on the Riverwalk.

The Vibe Check

The patio is the whole point. Located on Flint Street in the Riverwalk District, Pignic has serious outdoor-hangout energy -- picnic tables, string lights, and the kind of atmosphere where you lose track of time. Inside is cozy and pub-like, but when the weather is nice, everyone gravitates outside. The crowd is neighborhood regulars, beer enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates that a pub can have great food without calling itself a restaurant.

Pro Tip

The weekend bottomless brunch is the insider play. $24 for two hours of bottomless drinks with an entree is Reno-level value. Get there early on Saturdays -- the patio fills up fast.
