19 Best Pubs in Tacoma

“Went on a busy Thursday, the place was packed but the waiter/ bartender was very tentative and helpful. It's was a nice experience. The appetizer that I had was very flavorful and tasty it was a cheese salmon bake. I don't remember the real name. But if you're looking for a nice Irish place to get you Jameson and Guinness drink 🍸 😉 on this the place to be!!! Good atmosphere 👌🏽“

“I have frequented this place for years. It's a meet up spot for my old friends and myself. When they're in town, this is automatically where we go.
The dogs are phenomenal. I tend to stick to my favorites, which are the 6th Ave Strut & Ragin Cajun. Every once in a while I venture out. But my friends like different dogs and they love them. Dining in is so much better, but throughout the years, they've made takeout enjoyable. They used to wrap them up for takeout, which meant soggy buns. They now have takeout carriers, which makes it so much better to enjoy if you're not able to dine in.
Parking can be an issue, depending on what time of day or day off the week you go. However, it is worth it. I promise, you will find something you like, food or drink.“

“GREAT BEERS AND LOVED THE AMBIENCE! Would definitely recommend and go again!“

“Cozy atmosphere, exceptional service, and an impressive selection of beers and creative cocktails. The perfect spot to unwind with friends or catch a game. Hannah, Destiny, Gooner and Angele are the best & nicest bartenders I’ve met! Five stars, will definitely be back!“

“Honestly. I am shocked about how good this bar food is, and how friendly the staff is here. I typically dine or drink at upscale places, but everything here is made fresh, and it's pretty effing cheap. The drinks are great, they have a ton of regulars, and yea the crowd at night can be a little rough, but everyone respects. Day time drinking here is great as well! Been coming here the past month, never had an issue. Great pool table too! Music can be too loud at times though, which can be hard to have a conversation.“

“The food was fantastic. Our server Angie was on point, friendly and attentive. Drinks and beer were cold and strong. Loved it!“

“Terry's was always a solid choice for food and drinks in the past, but since their recent remodel and ownership change, BRAVO! I've had many options from the menu and have loved them all. My most recent choices; The Stranger, Proctor Poppers and Jo's a Mess all incredibly delicious! The service to fast & friendly, and prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend dropping by for a cold draft and a tasty starter or entree!“

“Awesome Staff... Great neighborhood Pub.

Food was wonderful... I had a their Smash 2 patty Cheese Burger / Tater Tots ( Man I LOVE Tots !!! ). My co-worker had their Nachos and Loved them also !

Lots of TVs to watch the current NHL & NBA playoffs and to catch the Mariner's baseball games.

Check Out the West End Pub, everyone. I think you will love it like I do.“

“If you never have visited any of the 50 plus pubs, brewery's restaurants ballroom's ot Historical hotels you are missing a big part of the Pacific Northwest most original, vol rful and down right unbelievable establishments around. The Elks was an old Elks club from when they were in their heyday. Rooms, Ballroom's, Bars, Hidden Rooms, sometimes hidden bars, food and drink. They distill a lot of their liquor brew all their own Beer and aged their own wines, all excellent. Food menu changes quarterly. Some seasonal food and they are absolutely masters of merchandising. Ask about their Passport and when you visit all of the locations and get all your stamps, the prize is a huge Tripster Party with lots of free swag. Thy it you will love it'“

“Nice area, but very hard to find parking. I like the outside seating and cozy chill inside atmosphere. The bartenders were very nice and accommodating even though they were very busy on a Friday night. The dreamsicle cider was such a treat.“

“On Wednesdays they have all day happy hour and they make a mean drink and for Easter they had an Easter egg hunt for adults and kids and I found 10 eggs and one drink ticket cuz they have tickets for the adults for drinks up to $10 and candy they also have a putt-putt golf course outback that they're going to have finished by the summer“

“Good times Good times good times good times“

“Stopped into Magoo's after a few days exploring Tacoma after many years, looking for something that felt like home coming from Chicago, and this place nailed it.

Tuesday night $2.50 tacos, $3 PBRs, and a true, unfiltered Tacoma vibe.

Jack behind the bar was outstanding. Professional, dialed-in, and handled everything like a high-end vet while keeping it completely approachable. One solid genuine bartender.

Five stars. Great spot, great energy, great people.“

“Delicious food along with super friendly and attentive staff definitely need to visit during the day next time to see more views definitely recommend it if you're in the area“

“bangers and mash, schnitzel, huge salads“

“I went to the pub today for the first time and I loved it the food was great, atmosphere was great, it has pool tables and pull tabs, and most of all the employees were amazing Bianca was awesome she told us about the food they had she was very kind and friendly. I definitely will go back“

“This place is soooo good! More than a couple of vegan options available. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Flying boots is very much so the typical dive bar. The drinks are reasonably priced, the clientele are all friendly, and the bartenders (while very busy at some points) are friendly.
I recommend they're jalapeno poppers and the cheese logs as all of those are made scratch in house.“

“We came to Dirty Oscars for a change of scenery. We live in Puyallup. Food was ok. We got dbl bloody Mary’s, the traditional eggs beni and the elk hash. Hollandaise was good and the elk, sadly was not very flavorful. The thing that sucked and pretty much ruined the meal was when we go the check we were basically charged for 2 bloodys each! $28 for a dbl Bloody Mary. Doesn’t make sense when a shot of vodka is just $8! Asked manager and her response was “I don’t make up the prices. This is ridiculous!” We won’t be back.“
