De Oro Mine Co

If you want to have a blast in Spring Valley this is the only place to go! This is the epitome of a small, local, watering hole that warms the soul. Have the pours, and live music are an added bonus

Super fun atmosphere! Everyone is there to have a good time. The bartenders were super nice and poured some great drinks. The prices are fabulous! The DJ plays a great variety of music and gets everyone out on the dance floor. The owners are very down to earth and take the time to mingle with the customers. Looking forward to the incredible list of live bands coming to play soon. Will definitely be back!

This to me is the perfect neighborhood bar.
–Drinks are cheap.
–Crowd is diverse but welcoming, young, old, white, black, brown, or purple you’re guaranteed to meet some nice folks if you spend a little time in here.
–Cozy but refined, with nice pool tables, many tv’s, comfortable clean stools, lots of signs and neon, nice tables and an awesome bar counter.
–Smoking patio.
–Owners and staff have always appeared welcoming, and make a point of getting to know customers new and old.
–Specials for events and football games with free food, or soup is often is available on the weekends as well.
If you’re tired of local dive bars like Shooter’s where most of the customers seem threatening, and the bar generally unwelcoming then this is an excellent alternative whether you need to take the edge off after a long day or you are looking to get completely turnt up!
Also. I think they’re going to start doing live music and karaōke soon which is generally a good time as well.

This is by far the worst dive bar I have been to and yes I have been to them all and worked in some of the best. THE OWNER sits at the bar and drinks all night, I have seen him there a few times and he is DRUNK. Starring at the customers and honestly made us feel uncomfortable as if we were not welcome there, funny thing is we live down the street and tipped the bartender well. The owner had an ap on his phone to skip the songs on juke box, we had just put $ 15 in there and he skipped our music. Next Visits he was there again and so drunk he couldn’t open up the door to the liquor room, I actually snap chatted this mess. Fumbling with the keys, dropping the keys and finally another guy came to open it up and get the beer for the bartenders. This could be a cool place but your bar will never be successful when you spend more time on the other side of the bar drinking your profits and making the customers uncomfortable. All of the people that were there were with us are also in the industry and were blown away by this place. the one positive was the bartenders were always nice and poured a good drink! However I will not contribute to this establishment again.

I liked the fact the music is always playing. A cool shaped bar, good drinks and cool characters. The bartenders are great. They have a new one and she has a pretty smile.
I’ll be going back soon. The pool tables are great also.

Always a fun place! Drinks are very affordable.

So much better than before and I hear there are more upgrades to come. The atmosphere is fun and the drinks are cheap. The bar definitely has the local bar feel and they make you feel at home once you walk through the door. I will Be going back to the bar as often as I can. I would recommend this bar to anyone.

This Bar is under new Ownership. I’ve met Fadi and Wayne and WOW how nice are they!!! Previously, this bar was run down a bit and the staff wasn’t as attentive as they should be… Now, it retains that «Local Bar» feel but it’s such an improved feel and that all starts with the owners. It made me feel like family the very first time. I found out that the owners have known each other for a long time and decided to make a go of this — GREAT DECISION! Fadi has multiple years in service industries and it shows. New Bar Stools even — that goes a long way. If you’re in the area, and want to stop by for a quick drink (or several) — go to De Oro Mine Company — I know I will be making this a regular stop1

We come here every weekend. We have a good time! Good people, good prices, good soup! Jillybean & Wayne are the best! Watch out for Kenny! Hahahaha. –Rick&Heather

New owners
Came here for a retirement party. The bartenders are super nice and accommodating. Nice little dive.

They’re still open… kind of, but this place is lame, lame, laaaame. When I lived in the area I would come here all the time, just cause it was down the street. Half the time they’d run out of the 3 beers they have on tap but the worst part… sometimes they’d close as early as 8 o’ clock! I don’t think they even open anymore till like 3 in the afternoon. Expect to see your fair share of tweakers and head cases who live at the half way house just down the street. 75 cents for pool seems a little steep when you can barely play a game cause the sticks are so bad. Sucks Piper’s across the street from here had to close down… now that was a cool bar.

Its OPEN! I have visited several times in the afternoon or early evening. The bartender has always been nice every visit. I never see anybody playing pool and the darts machine is turned off. it almost feel like half a bar. I haven’t been on the outside patio, assuming its mostly for smokers as that seems normal enough. I like the people watching and enjoy the ice cold, pulled right from the ice beers! Cheers. bartender was quick to toss trouble maker. I like that. the area has always been cheep but nice enough as there are a lot of mount helix folks who use the local businesses. not a bad deal. this bar is nice enough but could use something… come be friendly and get fuzzy.

It’s cool but closes early all the time an needs better music select on the jukebox… cdo is not a scary neighborhood… puss… and needs more beer selection

When I lived in the area a few years ago, I went to this place at least once a week. My bungalow was close by and the walk down there was a little scary. Casa de oro is GHETTO but livin is cheap. The bartenders were always awesome and remembered who you were. Once and a while they would buy you a drink or give you a shot of their new concoction. The bar has a pretty good local scene except this 40 or 50 year old bald biker wannabe skinhead that thinks he owned the place. It is fun to play pool there because if there are not any tournaments, some old pool shark can show you tricks on how to play better. It is a place that if you went alone and sat at the bar, it was always easy to talk to the group next to you and share stories. The bands were always just okay (greatful dead tribute bands ect) Is it that hard to get a decent cover band? Thats what I and everyone wants to hear! If your in the area try this place out.
