Overview

A gleefully eccentric two-story bar and music venue on Binghis Street, housed in a 50–60-year-old wooden building originally built as storage for a local lumberyard (since relocated). A large concrete dog statue stands outside the main entrance; plastic hammers of all sizes hang from the ceiling over the bar.

Décor

Owner Roy Goff's eccentric collection of memorabilia and "desert finds" lines the walls, tables, and booths, and hangs from the ceiling on chains and ropes — mannequins, giant plastic dinosaurs, fake Christmas trees, and a plastic half-size canoe among the highlights.

The "Dog Show"

Every night at 9 PM, the floor clears for the venue's signature event: patrons mount a giant plastic wheeled dog, grab a giant plastic hammer, and get pushed around the room by other patrons while trying to knock over as many mannequins as possible (some sandbagged in place, others hanging from ceiling wires — the dog can't stop, by house rule). Whoever knocks over the most mannequins wins a free round of drinks for themselves and their friends.

Music

After the Dog Show, the venue shifts into a full music program, featuring both some of Rwechyn Oasis's biggest acts and more obscure/ up-and-coming artists.

Food & Drink

Beers and mixed drinks alongside pub food: potato skins, fries (regular and curly), hot dogs, pizza, hamburgers, steak, and nachos — widely considered the best on the beach.
