“Evening out needed to get a drink and waste some time before a concert. Found this place. We were quite surprised it was awesome! Had several ciders on tap, wine selection and food. Place is filled with amazing plants and old live edge wood which adds to its ambience. Staff was great and they were about to have an open mic night. Really neat place to check out.

“I wish I had taken a pictures of the AMAZING pizza but I ate to fast that’s how good it was.

Fresh ingredients with fluffy yet crispy crust. The customer service was also great, they truly care about making sure each customer enjoys their meal.“

“A to Z, this place is nailing it! Fantastic variety of food, 100% recommend their variety platter of sausage and more. The spicy cheese sausage was grand! The staff was so kind and attentive. Made friends around the fire and loved the beer! Will be there again! Prost!“

“Best place to have pizza in Tacoma, friendly service wonderful entertainment and great Neapolitan pizza.

Vegetarian options: The spicy green pizza and original Margarita are both filled with flavorful sauces, the pizza dough is full of the sweet almost savory flavor of wheat, mixed with melted mozzarella on top yum.“

“Shrimp and grits are amazing! Eggs cooked over medium, no snotty whites. Perfect! Bacon was crisp and biscuits were wonderful! Amber is a great server with a great personality!!!!! Thanks for a terrific Sunday morning breakfast!“

“Love this place so much! The owners have a way with keeping up with trends and giving it such a fun atmosphere!!! This is a great place to go for any occasion!“

“I support establishments that support inclusivity“

“Cockrell Hard Cider is one of my favorite spots in Washington! The staff and the management make this a wonderful place to bring your friends and hang out. They have great drinks, food trucks, trivia nights, live music, and sometimes even chicken races! :) This place is inclusive to all walks of life, no matter who you are. They also have the CUTEST dogs i’ve ever seen roaming the property. 💛 The parking is excellent and safe. If i could give more than 5 stars I definitely would.“

“After an already long evening we stumbled into this place - as it was right in front of our hotel.

What a great experience. Shill and relaxed atmosphere. Jessi was also nice and attentive and showed us how to use the tap. Tried a good variety of beers there. Nice concept and a nice ending to our evening.“

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!“

“Great atmosphere, delicious food, nice vibe and great craft cocktails.“

“great local spot, went, will go again“

“the service an food {says the cook}“

“BANGING💥 SANDWICHES! If I'm in the area I usually swing by for lunch and get the Ruben Sandwich. The place has been and for a while, I recommend getting a cold one while enjoying your meal. The place feels very rustic and full of history. The staff are some pretty amazing people. Sometimes it can get pretty packed but, I just wait it out personally.“

“Our bartender Ana was talented, friendly, and kind. We watched her make drinks! She is very knowledgeable and professional. She shared her love of Polynesian themed bars with us. Thanks Devil's Reef for the best decor, best staff and best Mai Tai.

Try the nachos or sliders. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Certain things remain the same, but there is a loss of spirit since original owners Jaime and Jason went South. Great staff as ever. The burger was excellent, the tacos were ok.
It was not busy when we went at 830 on a Saturday... But the music was really loud and I wasn't crazy about the album they were playing. The lack of musical variety hastened our departure. Certainly it's the staff choice on music but a whole hour of it wasn't for me.

2017 Review:
While it's become too crowded at night for me to venture in as much due to the college aged scene, I'll brave the neighbourhood crowd during the day for ToT's fantastic menu of sandwiches, salads, nachos and other yummy stuff. Great veggie selections - I order their Buddha Belly wrap most of the time. Delish!
The staff here is amazing. I'm a ToT fan for life!“

“Good vibes, friendly bartender. Stopped in for a couple beers on a Thursday night and this was exactly what we were looking for.

I do wish they has a better tap list than the handwritten labels on the wall that are difficult to read. Minor inconvenience though.“

“Good times Good times good times good times“

“Serves mainly pizza only other thing on the menu are paninis and salads. Growing up Italian I would have liked to see more panini options. Pies were small a bit greasy but overall pretty damn good. I didn’t get drunk there but if I was the pizza would have been the perfect remedy. The lady with the short hair served me I didn’t get her name but she was professional, friendly, fast, attentive and a great overall bartender and server. Drinks wee reasonably priced and specialty mixed drinks displayed on the wall with prices. Gentleman in the kitchen was also fast with orders cooked to perfection. Overall I would recommend coming here for a good buzz and a quick bite.“

“I’m recommending it based solely on service and quality of food. I have not been to this establishment. But I love tacos and plan to soon. I look forward to you serving me.“

“Dianne was amazing. We were visiting from out of town and came in at 10 pm on a sunday night when she was cleaning up for the night, but she welcomed us with a smile on her face and made us feel at home. Thanks Dianne. You rock. Great drinks, Great service.“

“I love this place. It has been the most welcoming place since I moved here. Look don't expect to get a full meal here but everything else is fantastic. The atmosphere, the people, the cheap drinks. All the bartenders (Kate, Shelley, Maat, Carrie, and Haelee) are all great! If you're looking for a dive bar to go to this is the one!“

“Great beer and atmosphere. Amazing!“

“This is a good place for strong drinks and good food. The waitress was awsone. The cook brought out our food. Very friendly gal. The nacho tots were perfectly cooked. What surprised us was that it wasn't greasy for bar food. My only complaint is it's not handicap friendly. All of the chairs and tables are tall. I have MS & my hubby had to help me up onto the bar stool. We would have sat outside where they have picnic tables, but it was too chilly.“

“Great atmosphere, amazing food! One of the best bars for great food, never disappointed!“

“This place is amazing! Had the garlic fries and onion rings plus a couple drinks, was delicious! Also, had my first experience of legally smoking a cigarette inside a public building here, that was neat! Will definitely be coming back. My only complaint is over the trivia. It is fun to watch and guess on, but the trivia app being used was full of AI generated images. Obviously it's not a huge deal, but personally, I don't really like seeing AI pics, as they're usually quite uncanny and give me the creeps lol. Maybe consider a different trivia program that doesn't use AI generated content? Otherwise, absolutely love this place and would recommend!“

“Chill place Love that they are open late“

“This place is perfect in many ways ! It is chill atmosphere parking is easy front and rear points of entry , one of the cleanest little watering stops around , bathrooms are extremely clean just a fun place ! My favorite reason Miller high life on tap and the owners are family 5 star“

“Rarely do I write reviews but feel this hidden gem deserves great praise! Our server Tanya was amazing… Very friendly with excellent service; menu options mainly burgers, salads and sandwiches with large delicious portions! The spectacular view of Mt. Rainier topped off our evening!“

“This place is great! The staff was amazing! It felt like we've been going there for years! We will be back!“

“Love this little brewery in my hometown.“

“Great staff friendly environment and amazing food“

“Absolutely love this place and all the food, tv game options and the pool table is always available. Friendly customers and always a conversation to be had. Staff is great minus one lady who always looks like she's ready to tell you your puppy died and is quite short and unfriendly“

“Great hotel bar with friendly staff. There’s a few good local beers on draft and plenty of bar games like pool, shuffleboard and board games too. Didn’t try the food so can’t comment on that but definitely a decent place to hang out if staying here night before a flight from Seattle.“

“Many Good speedy pool tables“

“Best soups ever for lunch!“

“El Gaucho Tacoma is our go to for every celebration! They have literally thought of everything when it comes to fine dining and ambiance not to mention the customer service and food is always 5 star! Highly recommended, thanks again guys, we’ll be back!“

“Friendly staff, great prices on drinks and food and lots of daily regulars who love it, too!“
