September 8, 2026
Las Vegas – Sept. 8, 2026 – PT’s Taverns is expanding in southwest Las Vegas with the opening of its newest PT’s Pub at 8920 S. Fort Apache Rd., marking the company’s 74th tavern. Now open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the neighborhood tavern gives southwest Las Vegas residents a familiar place to watch the game, meet up with friends or simply make themselves at home.
Guests are invited to celebrate the new location with a grand opening party on Thursday, Sept. 10 at 5 p.m. During the party, football fans can catch all the action between San Francisco and Los Angeles across the pub’s 19 HDTVs while taking advantage of PT’s award-winning Happy Hour featuring stadium-inspired bites starting at $4.99 and 50 perfect off drinks. The night will also feature the exclusive $5 Pebble Punch, made with rum, and fruit juices with a splash of grenadine and garnished with an orange and cherry, as well as exciting giveaways for guests in attendance.
The 4,500-square-foot tavern features 19 HDTVs showing everything from Raiders, Golden Knights, Aces and UNLV Rebels games to marquee sporting events throughout the year. The tavern features 23 bar seats and 15 bartop gaming machines. Upon entering, guests are welcomed by vintage Las Vegas-inspired artwork that reflects the city's rich history and the warm feel of a neighborhood PT's. Also available at the location is a William Hill sports wagering deposit kiosk, so fans can place bets on their picks without ever leaving the tavern.
“PT’s has always been about creating local gathering places where guests feel at home the moment they walk in,” said Blake Sartini II, executive vice president and chief operating officer. “From seeing a familiar face behind the bar to making us part of their weekly routine, we’re excited to bring that experience to southwest Las Vegas with a tavern built for this growing community.”
The Fort Apache location marks PT’s Taverns’ second ground-up tavern build this year, following the opening of PT’s Gold Cadence in March. It is the first PT’s Pub constructed from the ground up in nearly 25 years, emphasizing the continued investment in new neighborhood-focused developments across the Las Vegas Valley. Built around the neighborhood tavern experience, the new PT's Pub offers a menu of crowd favorites, including shareable appetizers, burgers, wings tossed in a variety of sauces and dry rubs and freshly made pizzas alongside PT's award-winning twice-daily Happy Hour, available from 5 to 7 p.m. and midnight to 2 a.m.
PT’s Taverns’ linked progressives are also available at the new location, including 7- and 9-spot keno and 25-cent and dollar video poker. Since launching last fall, the taverns have awarded over $3 million in jackpots across more than 650 wins. The 7-spot keno progressive has hit over 270 times for more than a combined $1.9 million in jackpots and the 9-spot has hit four times for more than $150,000 in payouts, while poker progressives have awarded almost $800,000 across more than 370 wins. Guests can also play a 10-spot “Giant Keno Progressive,” which links the Fort Apache location with 65 other locations and more than 820 machines for the chance to win up to $500,000 on as little as a $1 wager.
