50 Best Bars near Milton

“Dave's is the epitome of a great dive bar—unpretentious, full of character, and buzzing with good vibes. The patrons here are a lively, eclectic mix, adding to the bar's vibrant energy. It's the kind of place where conversations flow as easily as the drinks, and you're as likely to make a new friend as you are to enjoy a night out with your crew. The music playlist sets just the right mood, and whether you're here to unwind or amp up, the atmosphere is always on point. The bar staff are cool and quick with a recommendation, ensuring your glass is never empty for long. For an authentic, no-frills good time, this spot is a winner.“

“If you get the popcorn shrimp, ask for the mango habanero sauce - has a bit of a kick after a few bites! The tuna melt and mushroom burger (with jalapenos) was great. We usually go for tater tots but here I'd recommend trying the potato Jo's (wedges)!“

“I always enjoy my time at Cider & Cedar. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. I loved the bao and look forward to trying the new menu! Love hearing live music in this unique and laid back downtown space. Check it out - you won't regret it!“

“We came here for a late lunch after doing an escape room. The food was really good! Two of us are vegan, one is vegetarian, and the other two are omni. Most of us ate vegan/vegetarian and really enjoyed our meals! The server was fantastic and our meals were really affordable (most of us spent $25 total). It is a dive bar, so the noise level was expected (it's hard to hear and you have to shout). It was also really dark in there. But nothing that would keep us from coming back! I highly recommend the vegan nachos! They were amazing.“

“My wife and I enjoyed a delightful evening at El Gaucho Tacoma as we celebrated our 39th anniversary. Shelly provided impeccable service and the food was marvelous! We particularly liked the special recognition on the personalized menu and card on the table. Thank you for making our visit a wonderful experience.“

“Wonderful atmosphere outdoors on the property of the apples. Food trucks are present and rotate between vendors. About 5-8 different ciders to drink. $6 for a 12 oz. cup of fresh cider. Sometimes they have live music but check the website for the food truck and music “

“Came into Bar Rosa with my husband tonight! FULL house! Our food and cocktails were incredible as always! Our servers were amazing! Very friendlyAnd accommodating. However there was this rude lady sitting with her family across from us complaining about the conversation of another table and how loud they were being. But honestly I didn't think they were being loud or obnoxious at all! This lady was being a total Karen. Scolded our servers as if they could control what the table talked about. They offered to move their table. Mind you the place is full and they refused. The lady tried to ask me if I thought they were being loud and I told her not at all. She gave me a rude glare for the rest of their time there. You could tell her husband was embarrassed by her shenanigans. The staff handled it very well!Best pizza and service in Tacoma! We will be back !“

“BIRTHDAY PARTYI had a great time throwing my son's 7th birthday party here. Staff were very nice and attentive to my parties needs and wants. nice cheep arcade games with great pizza. Make sure to ask for quarters to be ready ahead of time like we did. Highly recommend for kids and adults parties. Way more fun then a bounce house. Thanks for everything here... I can't wait for my birthday party here...“

“Oh this is a good place to hangout and have some good food and good drinks. Drinks are priced very good. Food is delicious. Service is awesome. The view is very beautiful when you go out to the deck. Karaoke is good. May be a bit loud for some but you can at least hear it and hear the person singing.“

“Came for Pliny the Younger night, but have been to RG many times! Service is outstanding and the taplist is massive and covers a great breadth, often including beers that don't always make it to WA. Restrooms are clean and spacious; haven't eaten here so food not rated.“

“I just experienced the Pub Crawl event over the St Patrick's Day weekend! It was an amazing time! This bar is already an amazing place to come, unwind, have some good fun, drink, drink and drink more and it's always a place to meet people and have great conversations!And the fact that they participate in events like Pub Crawl show that they are on the cutting edge and care about us... Me and y'all... Their customers! I highly recommend this bar for great food, drinks, social interaction and great people to conversate with!!!! Check it out ASAP!!! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!!Parking: Plenty of parking real estate around this pub!Wheelchair accessibility: They have wheelchair access.“

“Great neighborhood hangout. Our new place to play games, catch-up with friends. We had our BUNCO GAME NIGHT there. TV's, Music. Nice, Clean & Inviting.Parking: I parked 3 blocks away at City Hall because I was going there afterwards. There is a free parking lot 1 block away plus street parking, if you want to parallel park. ? I don't. I could walk there. It's only 7 blocks from my house.“

“This place has the best clam chowder I have ever had in my life! The lobster roll and the big will sandwiches were also amazing and the bread was so soft. Kind of had a sketchy crowd but didn't really mind that. 100% will be coming back!“

“Rachel and Sandy are truly remarkable! I adore the fantastic atmosphere at The Coaster with its delightful fair theme. Their imaginative dishes are incredibly delicious. From the food to the drinks, every detail and presentation is exquisite. I highly recommend and love supporting this locally women-owned business!“

“The service was top-notch! Our server was amazing and knew the timing of the meal and even suggested different drinks options when items weren't available.The atmosphere was lovely for a date night. It's cozy and intimate with a classy feel inside the restaurant.The tables for 2 feel very small especially when ordering a flight with food. It would be nice to allow smaller parties to sit at bigger tables so it doesn't feel like we're squished. We had some close calls with almost knocking drinks on the floor because there wasn't room at the small table.I'm spoiled with amazing steaks, but my $44 steak was just okay. The fat was hard and the steak didn't taste that great. My boyfriend's truffle burger was amazing though. We split his meal and I took my steak to-go.They offer a variety of flights, but I'm not sure why Elijah Craig is on it? Maybe it's just preference, but EC is not great. If they did a Four Roses, Johnny Walker, Macallan or even an Argbeg scotch flight would've made it more interesting and taste better than EC.I was so incredibly happy to see Pappy on the menu!!! However, someone bought the bottle so it was unavailable. So sad!! I first tried Pappy in Atlanta and fell in love. Sadly, it's so hard to find. Please leave the bottles for restaurant patrons to enjoy! The Weller's was enjoyable.The Arancini appetizer was delicious.It was nice there's a range of prices on the menu and they have a happy-hour until 5 or 5:30pm with delicious looking drinks on the menu.They offer dessert cocktails with chocolate and espresso - a nice change from the traditional sweets. I did order the olive oil cake though. It tasted oddly like fruit cake, so it wasn't what I expected. It was still good though.Parking isn't ideal at dinner time on a Friday night, but wasn't too terrible. We found street parking down the street and around the corner. But, this area does get busy. We got there around 5:30pm. I imagine it got busier later on, so maybe we just timed it right.Cute place. I'm sure we will be back.“

“Great little dive bar by the Tacoma Dome. It appeared that there was only a bartender and a cook on duty so we had to serve ourselves and order from the bar which wasn't a problem since it wasn't too busy. The cheeseburgers and pizza bread was great. Music was a little too loud for having normal conversation with our friends.“

“This is a must for happy hour. The nachos can feed 2-3 people easily and start at $7 I think. We usually try something new from the happy hour menu each time we visit. The habanero shrimp were alright but probably wouldn’t get again. The crispy Brussels sprouts were pretty good. The street tacos were a bit bland for my liking but not bad.The 4-6 happy hour only has deals on food while the one at night has deals on both food and drinks.My only complaint is that we’ve only gotten the complimentary chips and salsa once. Every other time, they forget. The chips come in handy for the nachos since the nacho chips end up a bit soggy at the bottom.“

“I've wanted to try this spot since reading about it in the local newspaper. Finally tried it tonight... and it exceeded expectations! Our server, Sara, was phenomenal. The food was fantastic. (Cheese soup? OMG!) The setting is super cool. We loved it and will make it a regular destination.“

“Coco joes Is the best place to go for great bar food they have the best chicken strips and waffle fries all bartenders that work there are always friendly quick with Service and make great drinks all three karaoke DJs are wonderful humans and the people there always friendly“

“No really the bar type but I grew up in the neighborhood , was looking for a great bar to visit for my first few times and I'll tell you feeling at home at this place ! Don't expect the greatest but definitely for a eastside boy very comforting !“

“Very busy most of the time which is great because I love ppl!!! Food has been good the few times I've eaten here. Philly wrap w/spinach wrap and Ceasar salad add medium rare steak have been my Two tried so far. Drinks are always stiff and the staff is friendly enough!!! Stop by to be in the crowd! Lots of Local L❤️Ve!!!“

“Swung by for the first time on Friday night. The drinks were good!! It was extremely dark inside, though, like almost pitch black. I couldn't see the decor well enough to appreciate it, because it felt like being at the Pirates of the Caribbean ride with the power out ???.There's a wall-height fountain with a stone facade that I thought was awesome, but it wasn't running at the time. The staff, esp the guy checking IDs Friday night was super friendly and kind :)Parking: Minute amount of street parking in the alley, probably mostly occupied by nearby residents, and most of the closest parking options are paid. Expect to walk the hills a little bit“

“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“

“This is really cool! When you arrive you check in at the counter and get your bracelet. Then you serve your own drinks! This means you can sample as many as you like and you don't have to commit to a drink you're unsure of. The indecisive person's dream come true! The staff were friendly and were kind in answering questions. You can sit on chairs around a coffee table or there is a table that has swings for chairs. Fun but can be hard to sit on for a long time. Next time I'm in Tacoma I want to come back here!“

“Our first time visiting and we are glad we went! A good hometown feel. The kids had the pancake kids meal which came with a drink and they chose hot chocolate. A mug full with a huge whipped cream top. Cute pancake with a side of meat. Don’t let the photos fool you! The kids pancake was plenty for my 11 yr old and the adult versions are, no lie, bigger than your head! We had great service from Ashley who always checked on us and made sure the kids were happy along with Betty who even gave the kids balloons once they were finished. I recommend a visit to this place.“

“We ate here late at night at the happy hour, the menu had good choices and the chicken tacos were really good. The waitresses and customer service is really good. I would highly recommend the street tacos and the guacamole. The bar area can get a bit loud with some customers. But overall, it was a good experience.“

“I was asked by my phone message how did I like the place? Truthfully, I didn't even go inside! I missed the address that I was looking for! But being that I will eat any food that is put in front of me, I can honestly say that I'm sure I would love the food and the great service here! Now, did I win any type of award?“

“I hear this place can get rowdy, no signs of it‍maybe late night?? The Billy Bs burger is fucking amazing too. First time trying egg in my burger ngl it's somethin And the bartender is awesome makes a very nice coke n rum From your local transgender“

“This place was cute, I went with some girlfriends and the wine we had was really good. My friends got some appetizer meat plate with cold cut, nuts and fruit, and a few other things that they said were good. I had the veggie melt( I am vegan) but I didn't care for it, not the owners fault or anything just wasn't my thing. Other than that we had a great time!“

“Oh My Goodness So Much Fun Place ever.! I be there Saturday Night with my husband and friends. 1 hour and half. Drink 2 beers and 2 water bottles total is $55.00 we can sing the Korean songs and American pop songs. My husband didn’t trust me when he been here before the Private room and can sing a karaoke. When he saw this Karaoke room and he was singing super duper fun and happy. He asked to me go there again lol. Birthday party, celebration, whatever you want Just go and singing.! The owner guy and lady are so kind and sweet.“

“Cute, fun hole-in-the-wall tap room. Amazing ciders and sours. Tried the bbq pork pans and Toms sandwiches, best sandwich I’ve ever had. Staff was super cool and friendly. Will be back just for a sandwich. Very clean in there too. 4729/10 reccomend!“

“When the chile relleno is right, I’ve found that the rest of the menu is pretty good, too. No discounts for military or seniors but the service and presentation offset a one star demerit. There should be a yes/no button added below for discounts. I tend to favor the venues with discounts. If I had known beforehand, we may not have selected this restaurant.“

“I had never heard of this bar before, I started coming when Sheri posted she was working here. I knew her from some other places so I was excited to check out something new and something close to home. We came a few times and really enjoyed the food. We came once when it was Sheri’s day off and the service was horrible. The bar had maybe 2 people, and there were 2 tables occupied. We were told we had to order at the bar. I could see the if it was busy…but why if it was so slow? We have definitely noticed a significant improvement since the previous manager left…not only more people but the people who work here just seem friendlier and the food has improved. My friends and I come often for the tacos on Tuesdays (which are so good) and we are happy to see the place so crowded and doing well!“

“Service was amazing, after my fair share of alcohol. Decided it was time for food.....I have doordashed .y fair share of food, but this was literally the best burger I've had in Tacoma so far. 5 guys, red robin, and Wendy's be damned..... definitely recommend“

“JJ was absolutely phenomenal. Great personality, super friendly, extremely forgiving to someone who had no idea how an actual barber shop worked (me, I’m the newbie) and holy s*** my hair never looked so good. He was so quick getting me done that I was truly shocked, in a good way of course. Need a cut? Go see JJ. Definitely my new spot.“

“Have been going here for 40+ years. The service is wonderful, food great, and clientele friendly. It’s consistent, reliable, and the staff decorate for every holiday. If you’re looking for a place you can always count on, this is the place.Parking: Has been a little challenging due to construction.“

“Just WOW! I haven't been to Auburn golf course in like 22 years. Wish I would have brought my sticks! This place looks gorgeous! The clubhouse is really nice and food and service was fantastic. Went on a Saturday night.. they had live music?? Group called Phase 5.. super fun.“

“We stayed nearby at an airbnb and found U Betcha Pub charming. I would say it's a regular spot for locals but everyone was super friendly and welcoming. The food is really good, it's "bar food" but that's what we wanted. We had hamburgers and chicken burgers both were delicious and generous sized portions. Decent selection of IPA's on tap which my adult son enjoyed. I like a nice cocktail and the bartender didn't disappoint! There's just something about that sign that felt nostalgic, we had to try. We went back a 2nd time too. Also great music, and the jukebox is one you can do by your phone. I didn't know but my kid did. Again, give it a try, service is excellent, food is great, and other customers welcoming.“

“Okay so, everyone is SUPER friendly and wants to make you feel welcome. It's old and not pretentious, the bartenders/servers will talk to you and share the history of the place. The drinks were decent, the food wasn't really there. They're super limited by having an airfryer and toaster oven type situation. Would I go back? Heck yes. The regulars were so nice and welcoming. Would I plan to eat dinner there? Probably not. But it's a dive bar, with dive bar food... the menu on Google is definitely not the menu you will find there. Go for a beer or two and make some new friends, it's worth the check out.“

“Dave,Kathy, and Olga are/were great friends of mine since 1986!Service is great!Food is greatBeer flows Plentiful and Cold!Pizza is greatSPECIALS are just that! But delicious!Attitudes are welcome!Conviviality cool and demented......what else can one ask for?Check it out@...... ( used to be Great Dane friendly as long as you feed it Fries)Cheers!Ozark; Mike! Lol“

“We like the ever-changing craft beverage menu and the variety of food items. I've had the Jamaican Rice Bowl twice recently - once with prawns and once with chicken. It was very flavorful both times. My only complaint and it's tiny, is we ordered coffee at the end of the meal and it was lukewarm at best. On a busy Saturday night, I didn't want to bother the server who I'm sure would have replaced it if I'd asked.“

“Place was extremely busy on Saturday night so there was a little bit of a wait to get seated. However everything else was absolutely amazing. The live musician set a really cool ambiance. And the food was fantastic. We started with the stuffed mushrooms which were probably the best appetizer I’ve had anywhere in a long time. I got the shrimp and grits as my main. I had never had that dish before and I was very pleasantly surprised. My girlfriend got the shrimp fry and was pleased as well. Portions were nice and big and the drinks were good too. 10/10 would recommend.“

“Absolutely love this place. Have come since I was a child. To this day, still great food, prices, and service. If you have the pleasure of going, ask for Dona. She is AMAZING. Sweetest woman ever. So helpful & quick to respond. Will be coming back again.“

“The food is great and the drinks are nice and strong. There is a nice selection of beer as well. I love the purveyors of this establishment so much that I couldn't call them staff.Also, just a note, karaoke is no longer offered at this location, and there are no foreseeable future dates.“

“Food is always pretty good, and great portions size an all American club sandwich with tots is enough for 2 people to share.Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely need to fix the wheelchair ramps and door thresholds, pretty difficult to move a wheelchair up and over bump dips and cracks on the ramp and getting over the threshold was even harder“

“Service was slower, but I think I was pow staffing levels, not effort.Kid-friendliness: I think the table next to us was celebrating a child's birthday. Everyone was enjoying themselves, and the kids had an activity to keep them occupied.“

“The vibe was amazing! Ciara was our bartender and she was awesome and very attentive! Her service was on point and her drinks she made are delicious ? I recommend the Strawberry Mule sooo good!! I highly recommend the Forum downtown Puyallup.“

“This place seems to have gotten an overhaul I got the boneless wings which were pretty dang good seems to have rather fair prices but I didn't get a chance to try much of the menu but a good little gambling place if you're sick and muckleshoot for sure“

“Great vibe, great music, great employees!!! And let's not talk about the food!!! My first time in, I had a Reuben with fries. 10, 10,10!!!! Alicia, Gina and Bruno the chef were amazing. I am a foodie am a tough critic. Thank you Bruno!!! I will be back and telling my friends. Congratulations Sean (sp) the owner, you have a gold mine!!“

“Nice brewery in downtown Kent. They have really good burgers, awesome service, and a very welcoming atmosphere. On Sundays,the kids can eat for $ 1.99, which is great for the wallet. If you're in the area, stop by. They would love to see you.“
