Taverns have flourished along Santa Ynez’s Sagunto Street since 1906. Sixty years ago, four busy bars entertained the locals and visitors alike. These establishments were named Last Chance, the Bum Steer, Parker’s and the Maverick Saloon. While three of the four original taverns have since disappeared into history, the legendary Maverick Saloon is still going strong and continues to be a staple in the Santa Ynez valley. The Maverick Saloon has hosted some amazing acts over the years. In the 1990’s began the “Nashville2You” Concert Series that brought famous and soon-to-be famous stars to the Maverick; including Sugarland, Pat Green, Dierks Bentley, Paul Azur, Craig Morgan, Paul Thorn, Confederate Railroad, Jennifer Hanson, Rhonda Vincent, Jeff Bridges, Tanya Tucker, Wil Ridge and a many more. The Maverick Saloon has also been seen in several movies and television shows, and is also home to the popular “Tales from the Tavern” Concert Series, which runs in the Spring and Fall months.
