Polecat Tavern is a “Place for Music” located on West Winnie Lane in the old Lamplighter location. The owners Keith Alan Barnett, an internationally known musician who performs at many local venues, and his wife Chrissi Barnett , a bookkeeper and graphic artist, opened Polecat Tavern almost two and ½ years ago on December 14th , 2023, just a day after Keith turned 65. “Most people think about retiring at age 65, but I started a new business.” Keith says laughing. “It's been great though, I never knew there was so much talent in the area.”

Polecat Tavern opens at 2pm daily, and has live music up to 5 nights a week with Open Mics, Acoustic Jams, & Karaoke, on Thursdays, Fridays, & Sundays. Solos, Duos, Trios, and full bands play every Saturday night. The stage is always available whenever there's nothing scheduled, and lots of musicians will come in and jam or rehearse, so you never know who you might catch playing when you come in.

“We've expanded into the next suite in the center and now have pool tables and a board game & puzzle table. We also have casino video games at the bar with poker, black jack and more. Since we are non-smoking, it's an comfortable alternative place to game without all that casino smoke and noise.” Keith says there's also a Gaming Happy Hour from 4 to 8 every night with specials when certain gaming combos are hit.

Our customers have referred to Polecat as the local 'Cheers Bar” as well as a “Working Man's” tavern. Many tell staff that this is their home away from home. It's so comfortable, welcoming and fun to come in and chat with staff and friends. Don't forget the Happy Hour from 3-5pm daily, where domestic beer and well beverages are only $3 each.

The Polecat Summer Concert Series begins at 7pm on June 6 th with The Gary Wheeler Band and runs through August 29 th every Saturday with Local Anthology closing out the series. Bring your camp chairs and picnic baskets (or order delivery) and purchase your beverages (no outside alcohol allowed) & snacks inside the tavern. Don't forget the sunscreen! We can't wait to see you there!
