Atmosphere was good, but the food was questionable. My wife liked her fish & chips, but my Rueben was quite disappointing. It was served burned (black) on both sides. I showed our server and he immediately apologized and asked if I would like another. I declined since it took so long to get our order delivered in the first place. I must applaud our server though, since he then took it off our bill.

My friend and I meet here every month for brunch to have a “catchup conversation”. These can get a bit long. The servers are great about letting us sit while they keep coffee cups full and delicious food (waffles are amazing) coming “in stages”. I look forward to the dining experience almost as much as visiting with my friend.

We will definitely be back! The food, service, location, and ambience was amazing! We had a wonderful server too, but I can't remember his name. Thank you for an outstanding celebratory brunch experience! Our newly engaged Daughter and soon to be son-in-law had an amazing time too!

The 90s and 2000s party was happening and when we asked when it ended and it was an hour before and they still tried charging us $23/EA we left.....very shady

Always a good time. Friendly staff, great food and drinks, and a beautiful testament of architectural history.

The restaurant wasn't super busy when we were there but it felt like our server was having to help everyone else. Not sure if all the other servers were new or if there were computer problems with the bills, but our server spent most of their time doing things other than serving us. Long wait times for refills and getting the check. Such a bummer

We arrived at 12:30. We were a party of 6. Never been there before. We were seated inside the front door in the bar with an 8 year old. It was not crowded in the restaurant. We had no idea there was a big beautiful restaurant there! The food was ok but me sliders were rock hard. Pretty sure they were left over from the day before. We were so looking forward to this, what a disappointment.

McMenamins never disappoints. Comfortable beds, visually stunning art and decor with a great brewpub to boot!

perfect place to study, catch up with an old friend, or rest before exploring the tacoma waterfront. Fell for the thoughtful art adorning the space, and loved the seating arrangements as well. blown away by the servers attentiveness and polite attitude. look forward to visiting every time i slide through Tacoma
We had a balcony room overlooking the Spanish Steps. There was a concert in the ballroom but our room was quiet. Really enjoyed the old hangout tiki bar and the hidden speakeasy. Staff was friendly and efficient. We felt very welcome. The food was unique to the location and prepared well. Great vintage shopping right down the street. We went to Enigma Escapes room for a close-by activity and I highly recommend them!!! Also enjoyed the LeMay America’s automobile museum.

It was just ok. Our party of 3 decided we don't have any desire to return. The food was not worth the price. Atmosphere is interesting. We have been to other McMenamins and all agreed this one didn't meet expectations.

10,000 stars for Derek (our absolute favorite server at The Old Hangout tiki bar) and Wayne (super great front desk attendant who was there to give us our passport prizes even though it was midnight). Literally the best service ever, both made our entire night, please give them both raises, the staff here absolutely makes this the best location! 💖💖

Brought the whole family for the first time and we had a blast. Would go here again... enjoyed very much.

Had the New Denver Omelet and it was SO good! The Hole In One Breakfast sandwich is also a fan fave!
