Sundance Bar

I really like meeting my friends at the Sundance when they are in town. BUT the woman’s bathroom toilet is leaking all over the floor. Disgusting when the bottom of your pant legs get wet. I mentioned it to my friend and was informed that this has been going on for 2 years. COME ON OWNER… fix the dang toilet!

Never knew this place was more than just a bar — it’s got an amazing deli!
Ordered a large Italian sub sandwich — the one with mortadella on it (Al Capone?) — with EVERYTHING on it. Don’t think I’ve ever had a sub with chopped up veggies on it before and it was actually really good that way and even distribution (chopped pickles, tomatoes, peppers, etc). Bread was really good too! Large sandwich is at least 14″ long I’d guess.
Was amazed at how awesome the sandwich looked as the woman was making it. Good conversation too! Took it to go and ate it at home.
Upon opening the sandwich I could tell it would be awesome… it was freaking ginormous, tasted fantastic and really hit the spot. Will definitely be back again!

Great dive bar! The bartender is pretty friendly and heavy handed. The bar includes several dart boards (both traditional steel tip and soft tip) and a few pool tables. I also have to highly recommend going next door to their sandwich shop for a steak sandwich or a French dip.
Prices for drinks are really inexpensive. They usually have a number of drink specials.

Nice little dive bar. I had no idea this place existed until I asked a friend to meet for happy hour.
There’s a deli attached with HUGE sandwiches. The small is massive.
We had a lot of fun at happy hour and I anticipating a «next day» Bloody Mary visit for rough mornings!

Was glad to find a steel-​tip-​dart-​friendly bar so close to Carmichael! Nice folks, too! The place is short on décor though.

Used to love coming here before they put in the new dartboards. Now its overrun by tournaments :(Still a friendly place to get a cheap beer and round of pool, though!

I’m a fan of this bar. It is very friendly and fun on almost every night of the week. The kareoke is funny, DJ is friendly. Deli is Bomb, And the bartenders have a heavy hand! This is a one stop shop for your mon-​sun night outs!

Decent bar to hit at the end of the night. Fun karaōke nights here! Deli I have heard is really good. They cook bbq outside which also smells delicious!

Used to hang out here back in the day. Used to be a fun place with great karaōke and a good local feel. place has changed so much doesn’t have that feel anymore and stuff has lost it’s personal touch with customers

The Sundance used to be the place to be 10 – 12 years ago, kind of sad to see it now. That being said, it is a good place to watch NFL games on Sunday. They have free pool on Thursday and Sunday. They have a decent selection of beers on tap. The deli next door is excellent. Buuuut, the prices on beer/​alcohol is not great, they are not heavy pours, and there is no happy hour.

This place is gross, a total dive. My fault, I bought the Groupon for 2 sandwiches thinking it was a sub shop or deli, but of course I didn’t do my research. I had no idea it was a bar… Duh. In my defense, the Groupon was misleading — it said «Sundance Sandwich — Meal for two»…
I’m on maternity leave so I sent my hubby to grab food. He called me to say the menu online was not current… the person at the bar had no idea what I ordered because their website was out of date. I was so annoyed that all their info online (pricing, menu, etc) was incorrect.
The staff was extremely rude, so I’m not sure why they even bother serving regular food. I would never come back to this place again.
My sandwich was HUGE. But, it was soggy (covered in dressing) and the ingredients didn’t taste fresh at all. There was like 3lbs. of meat on my sandwich, so this meal would be good for a caveman that is starving and doesn’t care about taste or quality ingredients.

Great Sandwiches!
I’ve only been to their deli when I used to work out there awhile ago. They have an amazing selection of different types of sandwiches and always load up on the ingredients. They also offer tri-​tip sandwiches which is amazingly fresh and tender!

Meh. This bar is okay. I really only go because my friends for some reason LOVE this bar. I’m not too sure why. It’s cool that they have free pool on Sundays and Thursdays. I have yet to try their food, but I’ve heard from many people it’s really good. Keith, the DJ, Is hilarious!
I wish they would accept ATM. No one uses cash anymore.

My experience was like unto Rick D’s, but I was the Mrs. My BF worked here about 10 years ago and we were stoked to go back since he’d run into an old buddy that still worked here. We showed up around 9 on a Saturday night and ordered drinks from a very unfriendly bartendress… «What do you want?» in a decidedly business tone. Idk about you, but a bartender is usually a friendly, people-​type person. If I’d been paying, she wouldn’t have gotten a tip at all. Ok, maybe a small one since my drink was strong. The bar wasn’t full. Maybe 20 – 25 people. We both ran into people we knew forever ago and chatted up a long-​time regular that reminisced about how in the good ol’ days the place was packed. I learned that our unfriendly bartender was the bar manager! Holy Hell! No wonder the place has thinned out! The DJ, however, cracked me up and handled a very drunk birthday boy with style. Kudos! I’d have probably hit him. He was clearly annoying and in Mr. DJ’s way. We stayed maybe an hour and a half due to the BF’s disappointment in seeing «his» bar as it is now. Don’t get me wrong, we are fans of dive bars! Friendly, laid back ones. I don’t care if you have food or clean bathrooms. But for goodness sakes, make people feel welcome!
P. S. A sign declares that they do not accept credit or ATM DON’T EVEN ASK. Be prepared with cash if you venture in here. Again, not a problem… I don’t have a problem with cash only and I know you’re likely tired of telling people you don’t accept credit, but it comes with the territory. I’ve worked retail. It gets mundane, it gets annoying. It is also your job to sell booze and it’s rude to post a sign like that.

I checked this place out becuse its close to my new place. Clean, with two pool tables and three electronic dart boards. The bar tender greeted me nicely, although I kinda felt like the guy who walks into a bar in the old west and the piano player stops playing. I guess I don’t fit the regular Wednesday at 4 o’clock crowd profile…
Pluses:
I like that they’ve got 20 beers on tap including Lagunitas and Stella.
Clean, no typical bar-​like smells
They don’t measure the pours
Minuses:
Their Happy Hour (for beers anyway) is just 50 cents off regular price
CASH ONLY at the bar. Who does that these days? Minus one star.
Bathroom – see note below
You can order food at the deli next door, and you gotta pay for it at the deli next door. The deli does take credit cards, and the deli staff were cool and rung me up for $ 10 over so I could use the cash at the bar. Otherwise, there is an ATM in the back of the bar. I got the hot pastrami and fries, which they will bring to the bar for you and you can eat at the bar. The $ 2 basket of fries was huge, and tasty. The hot pastrami with provolone on French roll was just ok, but they made it how I wanted it.
The bar itself was quiet, with sports only on the TV’s and no radio or jukebox playing from 4 — 6 the afternoon i was there. I talked to an older regular who, after commenting I must not come here often, noted that I picked a good night to come in, as it was quiet. I guess it can get loud, although that was not my experience that Wednesday.
I also went Thursday night – free billiards and karaōke. This time it was definitely louder, but not deafining. The crowd was very thin, which to me meant it was a dead night or the place is not that popular…
NOTE: The men’s room door did not have a lock on it. There’s a urinal and a commode, but good luck on privacy using the commode-it’s right in front of the not-​possible-​to-​lock door and faces the bar!
Would be a two star «meh» for me but gets a +1 for proximity/​convenience to my digs.

Have been here many times to play pool and have a drink. I have not sat at the bar so cannot comment on friendliness of other patrons. The best thing about this place is the connected sandwich shop. Tri-​Tip sandwich is great. Not a bad place to stop and have a game of pool, drink and food.

Quality dive bar. This one will be in regular rotation from now on.
Took the group on a Thursday (duh.) and filled up a couple of tables. It was our second visit and this time we had saved room to have some dinner. Grabbed tri-​tip sandwiches (w/​au jus), garlic fries, and cheese sticks from the deli side and damn was it all tasty. The boys were happy. Food winner was the tri-​tip quesadilla, that’s what I’m getting next time.
Football game was on (more happy boys) and the atmosphere was dark, comfortable, and casual. Fussy types should avoid this place, you probably won’t like it. If you just want to relax with friends, come on over.
Tip: Keep your booze order to beer in the very tall mug, or a 2-​item cocktail (also served in a generously sized glass). Gin/​tonic, rum/​coke. etc.

The Mrs and I dropped in on a Friday afternoon to be greeted by a room full of hard looks, and how dare you bring her in here with all all those boob’s showing stares from the big un’s that filled the room. Upon slopping my drink’s together (vodka straight up with a luke warm red bull back), glaring at me like I was the anti Christ, snatching my money and walking away I came to the conclusion that the bartender (older gal trying really hard to look 20’ish) was the most miserable person we have ever met. We tried to sit at the bar, but finally just gave up, it was obvious we were not welcome here, nor was my money.
I will never step foot in this hole again, which sucks for them because they are close and have potential. We are always looking for decent bars near our home to have some fun.

Great sandwiches. Had the Marley, it was delicious. Lots of food, Let say that I should of went with a small. Good price. Little disappointed that most of my fillings fell out as I was trying to eat it. I guess thats why they give you a fork. :)
I would recommend you visit this wonderful place and enjoy the great food.

I have sung karaōke here, played pool here, shot darts here and gotten poo faced drunk here. Sometimes I did some of those things well… and, well… sometimes badly. But my most recent experience was when I met my dad here for fathers day. We had a couple pitchers of beer ($ 7 Coors Light, happy hour) while we watched the Nascar race and the A’s game. THEN we moved on to the bowling arcade game which I admit, my dad beat me 3 out of 5 times. He sucks! No wait, I guess I do! Then we played the WSOP arcade game and handed him his ass on a platter. Was it mean that I did that on fathers day? Probably, but I dont care. We had a good time.
