Best hangout in downtown Pullman! Great ambiance, great food, friendly staff. Can't-miss lunch or dinner the next time you visit Pullman! And open all during road construction.

This is a cool bar, atmosphere is old style bar. Pool tables upstairs. Their bar is good standard drinks. Bar tender was fast and friendly. As long as you’re not eating. Great place. When we got there they told us their kitchen was taking an hour for all food. Our hostess and same girl was our waiter, was great. She was doing a great job for someone that did not have a fast kitchen and food runner. We ordered the combo appetizer. And it came with minimal French fries. Not 1/4 pound as advertised.. almost comical the amount of food in the basket. Potato salad had hair in it. All the food came out in the hour as promised. But my house salad came out last. I had to watch everyone eat their burgers. So weird. Salads are the easiest thing on the menu. Had hoped for live music none on our visit on Friday. Mostly food not great. But good for a bar only visit.Vegetarian options: No Vegetarian options. Everything is cooked with meat adjacent. Fries share oil with meat.Wheelchair accessibility: Didn’t see any way for someone in a wheelchair to experience this bar.

Easter Washington is not a place you'd expect to find a good Reuben sandwich. It's not Jewish deli fantastic but it's pretty darn good.

The oldest bar in Pullman and one of the few with pool. The back bar is absolutely beautiful and worth the visit alone if you like old school all wood bars.Phenomenal place to grab a pint and a bag of popcorn.Catch jazz there every once in awhile if you are lucky.

Good food, but for a pub I'm surprised there was no redbull (Jager bombs are my favorite special treat) and always super

This place deserves five stars for just how long it's been in business in Pullman, Washington. I don't know if any of their establishment that's been in there anywhere near as long. This place has a decent bear selection in an okay menu. Irish style pub.

Awesome place to play pool! The upstairs area is entirely dedicated to housing the 3 relatively well-maintained/groomed pool tables. 75 cents per game, just in case you're curious.As far as the rest of, "what makes a bar good"... I can only speak to my own expense and opinion (obviously), but, in the short amount of time I've been frequenting this joint; I've been quite satisfied with the "atmospheric" elements. That is to say, it's a chill atmosphere with a polite & diligent staff that have yet to do or say anything to offend me. The typical crowd here? Well, it's Pullman. WSU & U of I right next door to one another. That is to say, and perhaps this is just my Old-Man Energy talking, but I calls 'em as I see's 'em, it's 90%+ silly College kids occupying the joint an any given night I've been here. So, while those days are long behind me at this point, I will say that despite they silly drunken antics; the "College Kids" are entirely tolerable, if not my cup-'o-tea.So there it is. My overly-articulated, yet still entirely subjective review of "Rico's".Rico's Public House (Owner):I was gonna shout out the classic Ms Pac Man arcade tower but were I to, I'd have to mention the *well-worn* joystick. I have yet to test it out in any official sense, but I can tell just by jiggling it. Granted, it's at least 30 years old at this point (I'm guessing).

Pretty decent place. Menu is not vast. Standard fare. Pretty nice atmosphere. Pool and darts upstairs if you want games. Drinks are good.

I've eaten at Ricos a number of times now, and the food is always excellent. The staff is really friendly and efficient. It's a nice relaxed atmosphere and many times they have live music. Drinks are very good too, and all is priced right! I highly recommend stopping in to Ricos!
