My wife went there for the first time on 3/26/17 and the food was severely under cooked, which with chicken is horrible. One of her friends that with went her was already getting sick on the way home. When the wait staff was made aware of this they blamed it on the computer system.
Very disappointed! Your DJ Randy hit my parked car on Janury 28th, 2017 shortly after 2am. He had to be stopped by witnesses and failed to give the proper information. He showed an expired insurance card and has since denied hitting my car. If that's how I am going to be treated you can rest assured I am going to let everybody know, The Silver Spur is Not A Safe Place! Thanks a lot Randy! Have another drink on the job. Hit another car in the parking lot. And spin another lie!
Of the handful of line dancing places I've been to in TX, CA and OR, this is by far the best. There is never a shortage of line dancing songs, and people in the crowd are always helpful if you don't know how to move your feet. At midnight, the music switches and it becomes more of a regular club scene, but there are some die-hard fans that continue to line all through the night. Great find!
Review Source:I love the spur. It's a real country bar with great ambiance and good drink prices. It gets crowded but I never have trouble finding my way back to the bar although some nights the line does get backed up.
Most people there are not there because it's convenient, they come because they actually want to be there, and I think that makes the vibe really awesome and fun!
There are only two things that I don't like
1. They stop playing country at 12am so I usually leave around them
2. The DJ doesn't change the songs up too much.
But, if you're into line dancing and having a fun time it really doesn't matter. They also have lessons at 7:30pm as far as I know.
DONT PARK AT THE OTHER COUNTRY BAR THEY WILL TOW YOU
You can park in the auto garage's lot and the Spur has their own
There is a mechanical bull.
Don't run a tab because you don't have to be the person with the card to order and anyone can say "Hey put it on so and sos tab".
I never really go anywhere other than my 3 places around my home and never go anywhere with a cover charge, but I love the silver spur! I always have such a great time here, everyone I talk to out here just wants to have a great time and the line dancing is suuuuper fun! Will definately go back because I know its gonna be a good time each time I go back!! Love it!
Review Source:Went for a comedy show had a blast was a great place. I felt odd walking into what seemed to be a cowboy bar but it was a great time. They had great food specials also $1 toots and fries and even a $1 burger! The comedy show was great and the price was even better! (free.99) Drinks at the bar are priced right I got a bottled beer for 3 bucks and they staff was very nice!
Review Source:Was born and raised in Salem but had never gone to a bar here in my life since I ended up going to school in LA. Currently home for the holidays, I went out with some of the girls for a bachelorette party here and ended up having a blast.
It's a $5 cover charge, which I think is a steal compared to the $20 cover charge in Hollywood, and drinks are relatively cheap as well. Most shots are around 6-ish dollars and so are the mixed drinks. They have the basic beers on tap but nothing too fancy.
They play country music until midnight and you can expect a lot of line dancing, but it isn't nearly as bad as it sounds. Even if you jump in without a clue as to what you're doing, no one is gonna judge you, and let's hope they're too tipsy to notice ;) Once it's 12, they play contemporary and top 40 music.
You can expect a crowd of older cowboys and cowgirls and a bunch of students. I definitely saw some cougars wrangling in some of the youngins haha. All in all, a good place to have some laid-back fun.
WARNING: DO NOT PARK NEAR THE Â LONE OAK TAVERN. Apparently they have a stick up their ass and are completely bitter due to the fact that their tavern remains vacant and depressing while everyone piles into Silver Spur. If you are parked ANYWHERE near them, they find it necessary to go and have your cars towed since they have nothing better to do than to wallow in their misery. Two of my friends got their cars illegally towed, as there weren't any signs indicating they couldn't park there. It was $250 to get the cars back. Buzzkill.
Okay, I am very anti-cover charge. But if I'm going to be gettin' free square dance lessons all night to all the top jams, I'm in! :D Â
Other pluses of this bar/country club/pool table arena:
Hot cowboys.
Good tunes. (country until 12am, but trust me even if you hate country--after a few drinks you'll be SO sad you have nothing to line dance to after midnight!)
Cowboy boots = in in in!
Hot cowboys.
Anytime I'm in Salem and going out is in the stars...The Spur is top priority!
