“Great cocktails, fab atmosphere, wonderful service. We’ll be back!“

“I absolutely love this place! The food is always delicious and the service is wonderful. Extra shout-out to Amanda who had our table on the night of the luminary procession. The place was super busy (of course) but Amanda made us feel like VIPs. Thank you so much for your attentiveness and letting us know about future events.“

“Haven't been in here since I was 15 and got a soda during the day when kids could go to bars until 9 pm.. I loved the atmosphere and it was a nice look inside. Nice staff. Well loved spot by the regulars. Will be back again. It is a convenient location that makes it easy to stop by while I am in town. Right on the bus line too and a hop skip and jump to downtown. Thanks for the cheap drinks!“

“The food, the service, the atmosphere... absolutely fantastic! I would rate this place more than 5 stars if I could! They have outstanding food, and the gluten free options are plentiful. I will definitely be back, and have also already recommended this place to several of my friends!“

“Perfect place for a romatic dinner or drinks out with friends. Live guitar music set the mood, we loved our wine flights and the food was fantastic! Friendly staff, warm atmosphere and great view!“

“So glad we found this place!!! Everything was amazing, from the fish tacos to the margaritas!!!“

“Terrific Drink“

“Food A+ perfectly cooked generous 12oz NY steak & Blackened rockfish! Flavor excellent on all sides. Server A+, this was our first visit and Victoria helped with all our questions like family. After ordering the wait for food was long but we were in no hurry. It would have been nice to have something to nibble on. We hadn’t expected the wait so we didn’t order bread or salad, everything is extra. The place could use something acoustic to cut the noise a notch, simply voices overwhelm the place. Music from the venue next door wasn’t a distraction, it was fine. Parking can be difficult. All in all, we will be back for the A+ parts make it way worth the visit.“

“I’ve had lobster bisque all over…this place is the best I’ve ever had in my life. We went for the first time this evening and will definitely return. Atmosphere was amazing, we had an incredible server and the oysters were the best- I had kummies and tried the shuckers choice which was a local WA choice and they didn’t disappoint. I highly recommend!“

“7/20/2024. Unassuming neighborhood pub, Nordic-inspired interior. Exposed wooden beams, wood-paneled walls envelop diners in rustic embrace; minimalist design embodies hygge—coziness and contentment. Chicken fried hamburger steak, a revelation; supremely fresh patty, tender beneath light, slightly sweet batter. Caramel-hued biscuits, fluffy, moist interiors; ample strawberry preserves in charming ramekins. Belgian waffle, enjoyable despite browning; fluffy interior bolstered by generous pour of real maple syrup. Unexpected star: fresh, sugar-dusted donuts, warm from fryer. Five delectable morsels per order, perfect for dunking into rich, bright Dancing Goat coffee—local Olympia roast. Petite ceramic creamers add touch of charm. Attentive staff ensure cups remain filled, needs met; friendly banter enlivens inviting atmosphere. (Thanks, Tish!) Glossy coffee cups sans saucers, side of donut preserves elevate experience. Cozy oasis seamlessly blends simplicity, comfort; hygge-filled haven for locals and visitors alike.“

“Best dining experience my mom and I have had in town, that either of us can remember. Seriously, tonight we had the happy hr steak tips and mushrooms...as an appetizer and same thing was ordered for my mom's entree!! I got a burger, it was superb. Thank you for warming our bellies and making us feel welcome and special. Excellent service! Will be craving red wine demi glace until we return.“

“We have been coming to this restaurant for many years and have always enjoyed finer restaurants and hotels. The food is consistent and the pork chops with basil butter are excellent, the clam chowder is not overly spiced and the staff are very professional. We drive a long way to eat here, even if we dont gamble.“

“some of the best chicken fried steak I have had in a long time, and the service was fast, today was my wife's first time there and she loved it“
