Pretty cool bar with immaculate staff, shout out to Brianna our host who made us feel so welcomed, definitely inviting more people here
This place is so cool! So many different bars it felt like an adventure! Ended up getting drinks at the old hangout which is the tiki bar themed bar. Try finding the speakeasy if you go!
We had a family dinner in the pub followed by a self-guided tour of the whole building. Our server was attentive and accurate in taking our orders. The food was excellent. I think what stands out is what an incredibly complex, historic and quaint structure this is, and how wonderfully McMenamin's has repurposed it to serve the public. Our experience was memorable.

McMenamins The Old Hangout offers a unique dining experience with its impressive chandeliers and tiki-themed interior design. Located in the renovated Elks building, this fun bar features a lively atmosphere with a variety of seating options, including booths and a round fire pit table, suitable for both small and large groups. The staff are friendly and provide very good service, creating a welcoming vibe. The menu maintains its Pacific influence with casual bar-style fare such as fried items, burgers, and dishes like crab Mac& Cheese and the Jr's Jumbo Deluxe burger with cajun tots, which are highly recommended. The crab & shrimp roll, served with cajun tots, is also well-liked, and the Grit City Shrimp remains a favorite among regulars. Drinks such as the popular Zombie and the fun alternative RC cola add to the experience. For dessert, the Apple pecan cake and Brownie sundae are delicious finales. Visitors often remark on the fun atmosphere and good food, with prices averaging around $36 per person for food and one cocktail. Going inside McMenamins The Old Hangout truly feels like entering another world, making it a Tacoma treasure that offers good food, good service, and a great atmosphere.
