50 Best Bars near Tukwila

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!“

“Amazing local scene venue!“

“Amazing food and quick service! I loved that we could order everything from our phones and the food came quickly. The creamy udon was like a creamy garlic sauce and the wagyu sukiyaki was a meal on a stick. 10/10!

Vegetarian options: They have some vegetarian options but it it mainly meat

Parking: It's in a shopping pavillion so plenty of parking“

“I had a great food and great service. I could not have asked for anything to be different. I loved the happy hour specials. I look forward to returning. I recommend a visit sooner than later as sadly the parent company has been closing even popular locations for more profitable chains.“

“Nice hotel restaurant. Plenty of different level seating. Food was fresh and service was very good. Prices were fair for the area. The fish fry was hot and tasty. The burger and fries was good. Plenty of special drinks and food choices from salads to steaks.“

“We LOVED the amazing options for vegetarians! Different lentil dishes, some spicy, some not. There was a cabbage dish, a beet dish, and salad that was dressed to perfection. The bread was a lovely sponge texture that held up for picking up food, but was still so soft to eat. Loved the variety of flavors and spice (or mild) in this plate! Lovely music and friendly staff! If you're looking for a vegetarian or vegan meal, it's amazing!“

“This is our 2nd time coming here. My husband ordered steak tacos and I ordered a chicken chimichanga. We both had black beans instead of refried beans. We will be back.“

“I walked in to numerous employees greeting me. Everyone working here was amazing. Melanie and Morgan really made me feel like the only person in Twin Peaks. The food came out exceptionally fast and is was pretty good. Cloth napkins are a plus in my book. Cold beer, great food and drink specials, plus TVs everywhere made it exactly what I wanted tonight. Keep rockin and doing great job everyone. Slainte✌️😎👍“

“this place is awesome. good food, good drinks, good service. dang, Seattle , you got some good food.“

“Great food and great staff. Always delicious beers and cocktails. Great plant based options.“

“Hidden Gem on Beacon Hill ✨
When I arrived at Family Friend, I honestly wasn’t sure if we were in the right spot. This hidden treasure only reveals itself by a small neon sign — unassuming, but absolutely worth the find. Once inside, I felt an immediate sense of warmth and comfort.

There was no hostess at first, but we were seated quickly by Sharon, whose smile and energy could light up any room. Her service alone deserves a standing ovation — patient, kind, and passionate about every dish she described.

🍲 Start with the Corn Soup (Rosary Style) — sweet corn, tender chicken thighs, coconut milk, onion, and garlic. It’s silky, vibrant, and layered with comfort and spice.

🥬 The Gollai Hågun Sope — mustard greens & kale in coconut milk and turmeric over corn. A vegan dream — not a large portion, but rich in flavor and nourishment.

🥟 Riyenu Empanadas — beautiful in presentation, though a bit too fried for my taste. The creamy green fina’dene sauce, however, was divine and worth the order alone.

🍹 Signature Old Fashioned — honey-forward and sweeter than expected; if you’re a traditionalist, you might prefer a classic version.

The outdoor patio was my favorite surprise — warm heaters, cozy art-covered walls, and an intimate setup perfect for date nights or quiet reflection. Accessibility was great, and while I wouldn’t call it “kid-focused,” it’s perfect for adults seeking calm conversation and quality food.

✨ Final thoughts: Modern, soulful, and filled with heart. A neighborhood must-try that feels like home away from home. I’ll be back to try the fried chicken and smash burger everyone’s raving about.

“We visited Radiator Whiskey for our wedding anniversary and had a delightful time. The bone marrow was especially amazing, and the server made us feel very comfortable and even readily helped with a minor substitution we requested. Great environment, felt very private even in a busy night.“

“We happened upon the Diller room on our way back from Pikes Place market … what an unexpected but fantastic stop! If you love bourbon (and we DO) this lovely historic bar is a must visit. The bottle selection is exceptional, and Shawn our bartender provided great pours and the most welcoming attitude despite how busy he was!! A true gem of an experience in the emerald city!“

“Such a fun place to grab a craft cocktail and some pho. The drinks were very unique and the pho was surprisingly very good. We also tried the Tofu Dip and the spring rolls. The dip was delicious but very rich and the spring rolls were very fresh. We definitely ordered too much food but it was delicious and a fun experience.“

“The Chicken Tacos were perfect! Great place to grab a coffee or smoothie in the morn, then get a sandwich for lunch. when you get off, work go back and have a quick dinner with a drink! they have parking!! (tip your servers, they deserve it). Great prices & convenient if you work, play or live in the area.“

“This place has amazing, succulent chicken (thighs!), tasty sauces, and a bunch of other great-looking items on the menu. Location is awesome too, on the walk from stadiums to transit, next to Trinity nightclub, right in Pioneer Square. This place should take off!“

“If I could give this place ten stars, I would! The food and drinks are the best on the block but it’s just a compliment to the great people who work there. No matter how busy it is they never forget you and make you feel right at home.“

“This place is a gem! Go now! It's outside of the fray of the market. The staff is so kind and attentive. A lovely break from sightseeing.“

“You must visit at least once! Cool decor, creative drinks, great food. Reservations recommended.“

“Had been looking forward to checking out rachel's ginger beer and we picked out two amazing flavors of ginger beer - Pink Guava & Cherry x Mango 😋 The friendly and fast service also deserves special mention! We returned the second day and got the pink guava vanilla float which was also pretty delish!

“Handcrafted Ginger Beer: They are known for their handcrafted ginger beer, made with fresh lemons, strong ginger roots, organic cane sugar, and high-quality water.

Variety of Flavors: They offer a wide range of flavors, including original, blood orange, white peach, pink guava, blueberry, and seasonal options.”“

“great bar! came here out of convenience & glad we did. ordered the prizefighter, white claw & fries. the fries are to die for & the sauce has an amazing zing. 10/10, 5 stars!“

“Highly recommend! The buffalo chicken salad was the best salad I’ve had in a long time.“

“Live music, good food, funky atmosphere, great staff, cocktails, and walking distance. What’s not to love. Check this place out.“

“I’ve always loved honey hole and will be the first to say the two owners between the first and current were awful. The new-ish owners are slaying though. Quality right back up there to call it the best comfort food on the hill. Get mama lils on the gooch and be ready to sigh in pleasure.“

“Great food great service great atmosphere 👌“

“Overall this was a great bar. Great cocktails, service, and atmosphere. What was shocking to me and hesitate to come back are the $25 cocktails. They do have amazing cocktails but wowza with tax and tip and spending $30 per drink, my belly is happy but my wallet is not. Don’t regret coming though!“

“8-bit Arcade said they were wheelchair accessible and guess what?! THEY WERE. Not only could I get through the aisles, but the bathroom set up was an example in inclusion!! The door was easy to open and lock, the sink was easy to get under, the doorway was absolutely wide enough to get in and out of and there was enough room to maneuver for my wheelchair inside the bathroom!!!! It was amazing. Plus the staff was kind, courteous and even gave us a warning when the loud speakers, near us, were used!! Absolutely recommend!! 🫶“

“service was very extremely welcoming and prompt. My first time here and I was craving Chinese food - I Ordered takeout which was promptly delivered hot in compostable and biodegradable takeout containers. No chopsticks or napkins offered. I ordered the egg rolls and prawn dumplings. I thought my appetizers lacked flavor; I couldn’t taste any prawns or the pork. I was so sad, but I would go back and try something else one more time….“

“Amazing home to the new monthly womxn's pinball tourney!“

“Great atmosphere, kid friendly, awesome selection, and great staff!“

“Been reading about this burger for months now, and I finally willed myself to go down there to check it out. I had the double tavern and the chili fries. I’ll start with the fries, crispy and hand cut. The chili and was great and the sour cream and scallions were a nice touch. Huge portions though so they’re great for sharing. Now the burger, I had moderate expectations based off reviews and pictures. I always leave establishments disappointed when I have higher expectations so I came in with an open mind. I decided to dine in because all food tastes better when it’s Hot and fresh, and it was just that. The meat was cooked perfectly, the cheese melted all the way through, and the sauce was nice and light. The onions gave it a nice kick as well. It was very good. Beware, although it is a double, it is kind of small, so you can definitely kill a couple of them before you start feeling full. It’s really good overall, and I’ll definitely put it in my top burgers in Seattle (probably right next to The Red Mill.) These burgers were also a nice change of pace to fast food burgers, more expensive and the fries are extra but really worth it if you want just a nice, juicy, messy burger. I’ll be back to try the rest of the menu items.“

“Great vibes, awesome decor“

“Welcome back to the neighborhood! We missed you.“

“Honestly my favorite pub in the whole city. I kinda wish I still lived in West Seattle so I could go here every week. Impeccable tap and bottle list that features not only local but many of my favorite European beers. Friendly bartenders. Coziest place in Seattle.“

“Historical saloon with tasty food and drinks. Also, great atmosphere for amazing live music. Highly recommended!“

“Loved the service and ambience, fun place to catch up on major WWE events! It was a random find to catch up with a vibrant crowd and enthusiasm accompanied by cocktails, on tap drinks and nachos! 🍻 They have a minimal Food menu: nachos with cheese and jalapenos, Hot dogs (2 options). But you can get your own food from other restaurants inside Lariat.
Booth seating, high stool bar seats or just lounge on the old charm seats.
Requesting Lariat to add fries to their menu!“

“I had the best experience coming here! From the host Dannon, to our server Anna, service was top notch. My party and I all had lots of questions and everyone was super helpful.
The food was as is described; comfort. The lumpia was a stand out as well as the veggie patties. Next time I will definitely be trying the Ube Bread Pudding.
As if the food isn’t enough - the drinks are very clearly thoughtfully crafted. I had the Pecadillo which had a mellow sweetness with a tart ending. Perfection, big thanks to my bar tender Daniel!
If you are looking for elevated drinks, Filipino street food, sandwiches, and generous plates - come find the little speakeasy on an unsuspecting corner of Cap Hill.“

“On April 17, 2025, we (my Swedish cousins and visiting niece) had some of the very best fish and chips ever under new ownership of experienced Seattle owner/fry cook Brian T. Brian has moved into sourcing extremely fresh seafood from our local Western Washington tribes. Look for this great spot in the Pike Place Market courtyard, entrance hall just north of the so-called "original" Starbucks!“

“Great pizza, great drinks and beer selection, and a cool, dark, macabre atmosphere.“

“Great spot in Pioneer Square! I've been twice and the food and drinks have been top notch. They also have an amazing coffee machine and a bartender who also has extensive barista experience, so always delicious. And if you ever partied in Pioneer Square in the 00's, you likely clubbed here at one point. Good times all around.“

“I’m not sure who had more fun at Growlerz, my dog or I!? I enjoyed great company in the sun, with a cold glass of suds. My lab went home happy as a lark and exhausted. Our experience was five star!! 😁“

“I’ve never been super into vegetarian or vegan food options but this restaurant makes me rethink my approach. They have a creative menu and high quality food. Everything I try ends up being my new favorite.“

“I felt like I was teleported in time to an early Nirvana performance during my visit. Central Saloon was on my Seattle bucket list and I am more than glad that I visited the venue. As a Nirvana fan, I was able to see where they had one of their first concerts ever if not their first concert. I enjoyed visited a music history site. The staff was also very polite, friendly, respectful and professional. I highly recommend visiting Central Saloon.“

“Wow! We capped off our Seattle adventure with a stop here...amazing service, outstanding oysters, and a wonderful selection of local drafts.

Of the whole weekend, this was the spot...we left asking ourselves, "why haven't we been coming here the whole weekend?"“

“This spot is incredibly unique. It's at the top of my list of things I miss in Seattle since moving away. And to be sure, if I'm visiting Seattle you will find me here!“

“We had a fantastic lunch at The Dandy! Tried the sardine tartine, mushroom frittata, and a shrub & soda, all delicious. The owner was very welcoming and recommended some great options. The recipes come straight from his wife, which makes them extra special. They’re now open for daytime service, and their wine collection is seriously impressive!“

“I support establishments that support inclusivity“

“Great drinks, really good food and a value and cozy chic vibe.“

“I love this place and the new owners make it even better. Good food, local fun and good drink prices, steak night Friday is hard to beat for the value for sure.“
