This place has the best chicken tendys! We love the 7day happy hour, great service, and willingness to host local events (shout out for our civic education / Constitutional day a few weeks ago). Parking can be tricky, but supporting a local hot spot is 100% worth it!

Was pretty quiet when we stopped mid day. Big bar, very open. Yet has 2 other rooms for more of a secluded setting.

I have know Nicole for years. She runs quality restauraunts/ bar/ taverns. Her employees are exceptional. Last night had dinner durring a club meeting. Kelsie, our server was FANTASTIC. Our drinks came oit fast and correct. The room was clean and spacious. The food was of the best quality, and served hot. Also priced correctly. Good prices! I recomend the place for Dates, Dinner, Lunch etc. Also for meetings etc. Ask for Kelsie and you wont go wrong! Tony Re

Nicole's is the best Brunch for Olympia every weekend. Nicole brought it back after stopping Brunch for a few months.
Great bargain for drinks and lunch, dinner, bar food options. My favorite is the Club Sandwich and Side Salad. The Side Salad is actually a salad, and not from a bag. I hate the lettuce and grated carrots for a Side Salad! Not here.
Today we had Brunch. I ordered the Veggie Omelet with English Muffin and Hollandaise Sauce. It was filled with sautéed zucchini, greens, tomatoes, and more. Topping off with their pickled red onions and home fries. It's a meal for two!
My friend had the Eggs Benedict and said it was perfect. My other friend was not feeling like eating, but decided on the Avocado Toast on Sourdough, and ate 50% because it was so good-- we all took half home for later in paper microwave friendly containers.
Yes it is a bar, no kids. But, it's the best bar, grill, and Brunch service in town. Happy Hour is a good deal, and this is the only bar I've recommended for single women or LGBTQ+ for a watering hole and safe space.

I found this place serendipitously while biking through Oly to somewhere else. It’s a gem of a place. The service is warm and welcoming, the old fashioned was spot on perfect and the apps are delicious, although I haven’t ordered anything else. I came back for a third visit on a not busy afternoon and had the side room with the comfy chairs all to myself. My next visit will be in the evening when they have live music. Highly recommend if you’re in Oly and looking for a chill spot to perch and imbibe.

This bar is fun! It has dive bar vibes without the gross smells LOL! It is clean and it is a great place for live music! They also seem to care about the Olympia community which is always a plus! I haven’t eaten there but I will be back!
Nice chill bar with welcoming ambiance. Breakfast was great. The featured drinks were solid. Glad there are spots like this in Oly ! :)

*edited to remove an additional star after continued disappointment. Food and beer was great all around; the lack of stars is due to the lack of welcome from the staff upon walking in. Our party of three made note b/c we were unsure if we should seat ourselves (is a bar after all). Told later we needed to wait to be sat. Interaction could have gone better. Would return though.

Easily the worst bar in the area. Drinks are bad and overpriced. Weird/bad vibes, and questionable clientele l.
