“ Great bar in the mountains with live music and amazing people ”
“ Applejacks is always a fun place to hang out with really nice locals. Stop in if you are over on the coast and want to go a little inland to warm up and grab a drink. Its always 10 degrees warmer in la honda so thats nice.They do occasionally have food and bands so its with it to call and see whats going on for the day if your not local enuff to just pop in and see yourself. It is a no frills place so if your looking for a blended daiquiri this isn't the place for you. Also it can be quite busy on the weekends, its a Very popular place for car enthusiasts and motorcycle riders. ”

“ Quick Beers and friendly people. No food. Pool table and fusbol great Firestone heater. Check out the back porch next to babbling brook creek. ”
“ Very cool old time bar with a great big deck out back. Live music on the weekends, good prices and a friendly staff. Stopped in with the fellas while riding and it was a great place to rest and wet our whistle. Just driving by is a mistake. Place has some history to it as well. ”
“ Awesome place to stop for a quick beer or a few beers. My buddy and I stopped by on our way back from delivering a vehicle and this place didn't disappoint. We were expecting a place where we could get a quick beer fix then get back on the road, but what we got instead was a place where we would definitely come back to. One person gave this place a low rating because it was "very loud". Quick tip for that person, stay home and drink wine in front of the TV. If you hate fun, this isn't the place for you. ”
“ Waited here for our friends to join us for camping trip in Portola. Got a couple of beers, chatted with the local crowd, and had a merry time sitting in the redwoods shade. They had a live band on Sat at 4-20 pm which we couldn't wait for, and Sun at 2 pm.. But a guitarist played some tunes which made our day. They're pet friendly and our doggo loved hanging with us on the patio. Not pricey & rustic ambience with friendly staff. ”
“ Just coming back from the first night of karaoke I've been there for. Never been much for karaoke anywhere..but it was an absolute blast! Fun, relaxed & I didn't sing but it's impossible not to have a great night with so many laid back & FUN people. Thanks, as always. ”
