2 reviews for Hillsider Saloon Cp
No longer the Hillsider 2, this bar has again changed ownership and names, it is now named "Slingshots".
This must be the 15th name this building has had in the 25 or so years it's been there.
For the most part I feel that the place has changed for the better, they cleaned it up a bit, although the previous owner did a significant remodel, the bartenders are friendly and responsive and the new owners appear to be making a real effort to keep the troublemakers out.
Pool tables(2), table tennis(2?) and darts(3+) are all in good shape.
A friend of mine was in town over the weekend and we wanted to shoot some pool so we tried this place out. There was a DJ playing a great mix of music at just the right volume and they were doing raffles with some nice prizes. Buy a drink they give you a ticket, it was a great environment for Cameron Park. The only thing missing was people! The place was nearly empty! I couldn't figure it out... maybe there was something else going on in town? (funny).
I will say that for the most part the people that were there were good looking and having fun, maybe it was too early for the crowd though.
I don't get out much anymore but when I'm looking for a game of pool and a beer in Cameron, I'll go to Slingshots.

Thursday nights. They are what make this bar. It is a picturesque small town watering hole that you would see on tv shows such as October Road. On Thursdays, one dollar beers plus the weekly beer pong tournament draws a large crowd. And, seeing half the people who you went to high school with is lovely as well! Yes, there are the few trashy brawls, which can be pretty entertaining! While the night life in SF cannot be compared to, Slingshots certainly fulfills that urge to shake your groove thing during the work week.
