Legit As Fuck. Hipsters despised. Beer and beer. No IPA. No AC. No fresh air. Cat hair, dust and Modelo is the import. Leon is The Man.

A true traditional bar! I don't know how old it is, but it's...intimate. Mr Lee, the proprietor, is a young elder who serves mostly locals and passersby. We enjoyed Vodka Sodas and Modelo Beers while chatting about the area and our trip in Vegas. The bathroom needs a face-lift. A charming bar indeed.

This is a must visit location for those who like the stories and adventures that travel along the desert trip to and from Las Vegas. Much like eating at one of the “Original” Del Tacos, or powering through “The Narcissist” or “Mannimal” at Apollo’s or having a cinnamon roll at Penny’s or steak and drinks at the Pioneer Saloon, Lee’s Tavern is a can’t miss for those that don’t just want to drive to and from LV but actually experience what’s around this tour that you’re on. Cheap drinks, the best no-frills Bloody Mary around and character in abundance. Hope you enjoy a new spot to share w/ your friends on your travels.

Long ago Yermo was a prospering community that centered around servicing motorists that were traveling along the Arrowhead Trail, many either coming to Southern California or traveling out to Las Vegas and Utah. As anyone who has watched the movie CARS can attest, once you get bypassed by the interstate there isn't much left to keep you a float, and towns and places like Yermo become more history than alive and thriving. Yet, sometimes in these places that time and travelers have seemed to neglect are little treasures that exist that people should discover and breathe life into again because they're just too unbelievably cool to not experience; case in point: Lee's Tavern in Yermo, CAIt's like a scene from a movie, the decor is old, the bar dingy, a cat and dog roam about freely, there's the wind and the dust and the odd local having a beer at 11AM on a Sunday. It also has one very strong and extremely to the point Bloody Mary; no there are no frills, garnishments or nonsense, nope, this is a working man's Bloody Mary, and after two, you will be absolutely ready to be back on the long road to Sin City. I hope everyone that reads this review takes a chance and pulls off the road to check out Lee's. You will discover that Lee's has its fans from all over the world and from all walks of life, but there's so many younger locals now that need a place like this in their lives and on their travels that I decided to post this for them (and of course for Lee's register and tip jar) For me this is a "must do" on the road to Vegas. I mean are you getting Del Taco at one of the originals, of course; are you getting a Gyro at the Mad Greek or getting White Castle burgers in Jean or going to the Pioneer Saloon in Goodsprings? Absolutely you are! Well make sure to add a new stop off at Lee's Tavern in Yermo to the your list of Vegas road trip points! If you love making your trips mini adventures then you'll love Lee's for sure, plus, and I can't believe I forgot to mention this, he's one of these grandfathered in establishments in CA where you can still buy a bottle (at the bar) to take with you LOL! We'll see you at Lee's!

If you like your bars with history, a little dust, and local flavor, stop in at Lee's Tavern. We passed through on a Friday for happy hour en route to the Mojave Preserve. First we were greeted by a cat, then by Mr. Lee (the place was empty otherwise). Beers were cheap and cold, the locals who came by were friendly and by the time we left the counter was starting to fill up with guys getting off work. We got some good tips on fishing and things to see nearby ... would stop in again if I'm back in the area!
