12 Best Cocktail Bars in Olympia

“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.“

“I was there last night with friends! We sat in the vault😉 It was private and fun ! Sam, our waiter was efficient and friendly …the drinks were very tasty too 😍“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“My wife and I both had the steak quesadillas, which were excellent. Very happy with the meal start to finish, the flan is flavorful and has a pleasant presentation.

The real star for me was the sangria. I first had sangria in Spain as a young Marine, and I've been ordering it wherever it's offered trying to find comparable. Jessica delivers perfection in a glass, the drink is both beautiful to look at and divine to taste. She really ought to make it by the barrel, she's got a gift.

I will most definitely be revisiting when I'm in area.“

“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.“

“BEST Bloody Mary around, and trust me, I have tried them all. The burgers are amazing, the salad, the specials, I could go on and on. All of that combined with attentive staff that always gets it right. Hard to find a gem like this, 10/10 recommend!!!“

“My girlfriend and I came here tonight for our anniversary.
This was our first time coming to 1889 Prime.
We checked in at our scheduled reservation time and were escorted to our table less than five minutes of arriving.
Our server, Tristan was exceptional. He offered the specials, his own personal likings, and held great conversations. Although the restaurant is upscale, Tristan kept conversations relaxed and easy going. The one downfall, we requested our steak to be medium and it came out as medium-well, but we did not send our food back. We informed Tristan and although it was obviously not his fault, he apologized numerous times and verified that we did not want a new steak. He did not get angry, argumentative, or disrespectful. Instead? He told us thank you for our honesty and feed back and unexpectedly comped us our creme brûlée. The food was delicious, the price was reasonable, and Tristan was a delight. These are the reasons we will definitely be returning to 1889 Prime.“

“Fabulous bartenders, especially on bingo night - always a good time!“

“This place is very quickly becoming out favorite place to eat dinner. The food is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. The prices are more than fair. All of that being said, the best part of coming to eat here is our favorite server, Tanya. She is friendly, professional, and an absolute kick in the pants. It's like dining with your best friend. Tanya, don't change a thing, you are wonderful just the way you are, thank you for such great conversation and laughs, we absolutely adore you“
