6 Best Pubs near Tenino

“What a lovely place with such a beautiful lake.“

“Fantastic experience. Was in the area for work and not used to this kind of place in California. Great atmosphere, drinks and food. The employees were extremely pleasant. And they have pull tabs! Reminds me of home back in Wisconsin. Absolutely loved my time here and will definitely return. Thank you!“

“If I had to struggle with finding something to complain about it would be that it felt dark. That would be petty. The food was really good. I suggest having them put some Spam on whatever sandwich you get. Service was on point and my drink didn't get empty. Check this little local place out“

“It is a pool hall so if you are looking for real quiet never mind. It's not real noisy but can get a bit raucous. They have a excellent seasonal menu besides their usual one. They have quite a selection of their own beers. My husband and I go quite often when we feel like not cooking. It's also fun to watch a movie and eat & drink sometimes.“

“I absolutely adore McMenamins Olympic Club. I have so many memories here—family stays, cozy getaways, and those perfect small-town adventures that just stick with you.

What McMenamins—and especially the McMenamin brothers—have done for the Pacific Northwest is something special. I always tell people they’re basically the Disneyland of the Northwest. The way they’ve invested in restoring and preserving historic properties that might’ve otherwise been lost is incredible. They’ve built a brand that feels cohesive yet unique—no matter which location you’re in, there’s a familiar warmth in the look, the smell, the atmosphere… and yet each place still has its own story.

And let’s talk about the Passport—it’s genius. I love it. I’ve almost completed it twice, and it adds such a fun layer to the whole experience.

This location, though, is a cut above the rest—even though there truly isn’t a bad one in the bunch.

My one honest critique? The service. It tends to be a bit lacking and could definitely use some attention. It’s the one piece that doesn’t quite match the magic of everything else.

That said, I’ll keep coming back. Places like this are rare, and what they’ve built across the Northwest deserves real appreciation.“
