Red Onion Saloon
A former saloon and brothel from the 1897 Gold Rush era, now serving pizza and beer, with a brothel museum upstairs.
Located at the corner of Broadway and 2nd Avenue, the building dates to 1897 and once served as a dance hall, saloon and brothel. It is now a retro-style saloon. Its specialties include pizzas (with themed options such as Madam Jan's, plus a cauliflower-crust gluten-free version), tortilla chips, seafood chowder and smoked salmon spread. Upstairs, the brothel museum offers a 20-minute Quickie tour led by a guide dressed as a madam, for about $20, and you can join while you wait for your food. The space is small, so expect a wait at peak times.
Opening hours
About mid-April–late September, daily 10:00 until evening
