Discover this place

Located at 1607 Woodside Rd in Redwood City, CA, Saddle Room Bar is a local gem for anyone in search of a cozy dive bar experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, where patrons become friends in no time. Young Juhn highlights its friendly vibe, noting how the regulars welcomed him like one of their own. This sense of community is palpable, adding to the bar’s charm.

Former guests rave about the efficient and friendly service from the bartenders, making it a perfect stop after a long workday, as Todd Wilson mentions. The bar carries an old-school Western theme, reflecting the area's rich history, while its intimate and somewhat cluttered interior evokes nostalgia. Athanasios Rebelos describes it as a step back in time—a "hole-in-the-wall" treasure reminiscent of classic watering holes.

The back patio is a standout feature, providing a space for smokers and socializers alike, and Kathy Houlihan recalls a memorable gathering there, complete with good food and an excellent atmosphere. Whether you’re there to grab a drink, catch a game, or celebrate, Saddle Room Bar promises good times, lively conversations, and a touch of local flair.

Fun place to have a drink and watch the game. Very local bar, looks like everyone knew the owner. But everyone very friendly to a stranger like me.

It's a good old fashioned pub. Nothing fancy, just a nice comfortable place to have a drink and make a friend. There is a large outside area where you can smoke and have a drink, which is hard to find. It's my go to place after a hard days work. The service is the best !!

I’ve lived in San Mateo County for almost two decades and have heard tales of the Saddle Room, but this is my first visit. It’s a tiny, hole-in-the-wall, old-school Redwood City dive bar. As the name implies, it’s a western theme, and I assume it has a lot to do with all of the horse ranches further out Woodside Rd. I don’t know how true it is, but I feel like the Saddle Room was one of the few businesses along this stretch of Woodside Road remaining from when this was the southwestern edge of town. There’s a back patio that we did not explore. The bar inside is tiny, old, and cluttered. You won’t like it if you’re claustrophobic, but you’ll love it if you want to feel like you just walked into an old-time wagon trail watering hole. While enjoying our heavy pours, we heard different music, from country to 80s synth-pop, to which the same folks sang. There are sports on the tiny old-school flatscreens which are sufficient given the room's scale. Good times and we will enjoy stopping in again sometime.

We went there for a celebration of life for my brother in law. He had already made a menu of food he wanted served and had an open bar for 3 hours. We all were surprised to see how many people showed up and lots of his friends from many years ago. We had a fantastic time on their patio. The food was good and the atmosphere was fantastic. We had several picture boards for everyone to look at. Everything was great.

Great crowd the night we were there. Friendly and attentive bar tender as well as fun and interesting people to mingle with at the jukebox. An assortment of beverages and even some snacks. They have darts and plenty of open seating, inside or out. Convenient location with lots of free and safe parking. I've already been back with other friends.

Best place on the planet for a cold one or a stiffy, anytime, day or night, and weekends too. Everyone is cool, and all the girls are hot. No joke, when all your clubs or your therapist fails, the 'Room is your place to meet good friends.
