The recently renamed The Strat has a new taphouse on the way. Blvd & Main Taphouse opens next to the revamped William Hill Sports Book.

The dessert menu includes apple pie flautas, S’mores cake, toffee cake, and fondue for sharing.
Dave Otto, the pub’s brewer, created Jaywalker, a mild golden ale with a touch of malt sweetness, low bitterness, and a hint of Old World hop aroma. Two of Otto’s other beers, Sean Patrick’s Irish Red and Hualapai IPA of Golden Entertainment’s PT’s taverns, will be among the two dozen beers on tap. Other local and regional craft beers include CraftHaus Evocation Saison, Tenaya Creek Bonanza brown ale, and Banger Brewing Morning Joe from Las Vegas.
The pub features a space that pays tribute to the Arts District with pieces commissioned by local artists such as Manny Avila, Liz Lagumina, Biscuit Street Preacher, and Devin Valdivia.
Open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to midnight and Friday and Saturday until 2 a.m.
