50 Best Bars near Tukwila

“Amazing local scene venue!“

“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!“

“Great spot! We always get quick service and leave happy. There is a lot of variety in the dishes offered, something to please everyone (including kids!). Chicken karaage is a favorite, and we love the drinks too. Will be back again and again!“

“This is not a typical Courtyard Bistro, they have a full restaurant. Staff was amazing, Savannah and Patrick. I ate here 3 times during my stay, everything was great. Calamari, Burger, Steak, Quesadilla. Great selection of local beers and spirits, overall a very nice bar selection for a Courtyard. Was not expecting that.
I also spoke with the manager to compliment him on the staff and food. I am hoping my job sends me back here in the future.
Oh and breakfast was also a good value and good food.“

“The food tastes great but they have to work on the presentation. The restaurant doesn't have a sign with the name so it might be confusing. I hope they will put a sign with the name ( we thought Google sent us to a wrong place🤔). The server was kind and friendly. I will probably go back to try another meal.“

“How do I put this... My wife loves these kinda places, and given the tik toc videos, we expected it to be a bit more risky. It was a more family friendly then we expected is all. That said, the young lady who helped us was great, the food was surprisingly good, and they have NA beers which is nice. I had to stand up cause my legs were falling asleep and the manger was quick to make sure we were ok, I was going to explain to him, but by that time I was full and tired so I might have been a little curt. I hope he didn't think I was being rude. I just needed a nap.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“One of our favorite places in Seattle to eat and chill.“

“Sometimes a place hits just right. If you’re lucky you can get a table by the window for that epic 1st and Pike people watching. Get some braised brisket and appreciate. I liked the space with the exposed wood ceiling and old school windows. Service was timely and friendly. I look forward to coming back to try the baked fontina cheese dip appetizer or the fried bread pudding.“

“Had a great time at Central Saloon. The bartender’s name was Carly, and she absolutely crushed it. She had full control of the bar and handled a busy crowd with confidence, keeping service smooth and maintaining a great pace the entire time. She never once looked stressed. She kept the night entertaining and fun while still running a tight, well-managed bar. You can tell she’s experienced, professional, and genuinely great at what she does. That kind of bartending makes the whole place better and definitely makes me want to come back for more.“

“Everything I’ve had here is so good! Feature items are always thoughtful and delicious. A regular menu go to is the twice baked potato, which is always so good. This weekend she featured a crab roll, which is one of the best I’ve ever had service is friendly and personal, and the environment is very cozy and welcoming.“

“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.

“Such a fun and comfortable hang out! We really like their trivia nights and the pet friendly atmosphere. The drink lines tend to back up on trivia nights due to the time based rush to get a drink before the game starts, but in between games it's a cinch.“

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

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

“This place has me hooked. Visiting town and already been here twice. The menu is amazing, the ginger beer is incredible, I can confirm the blackcurrant is out of this world good!
Great team serving quickly, no long waits, great drink served with a smile.
If you are in the area drop in here you won’t regret it!“

“great atmosphere and appetizers but pasta and mac and cheese balls we’re not good!! I had high expectations for it but definitely did not expect it to be that bad. I got a Italian soda which was fire but pasta… NOT GOOD also it was full within the first 5 minutes of opening and I went on a Friday“

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

“This place is so cool. Its wrestling themed and right across from tomb of treasure. Great staff and the hot dogs are good 2.
The arcade is even wrestling themed with great pinball machines.
The tables have really cool wrestling photos.“

“Located in the ❤️ of Cap Hill this intimate and eclectic sandwich shop is one yoy must try. Baguettes are the bread and the layers of condiments, cheese and meat is so flavorfu! Your tastebuds will thank you! On tap beer topped off the lunch! Service was quick and friendly and makes me want to go back!“

“PST has some of the best cocktails ever! Nothing else has even come close to what I’ve tried here.

Some cocktails do include ingredients like beef broth or eggs, so make sure to check and ask questions if you’re unsure.

The staff is incredibly cordial and always happy to explain, even though they barely seem to get a moment to breathe. It’s always busy, yet they stay friendly, smiling, and welcoming.

I absolutely loved their craft cocktails. My favorite from my first visit was the “Tamarind Ice.” Such a fun, tangy drink. The vegetarian banh mi sandwich was amazing too. The server was very friendly and made the experience even better.
Highly recommend and I will definitely be visiting again!

Walk into Pho-Bac and take the stairs to go to PST upstairs.“

“Great food great service great atmosphere 👌“

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

“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….“

“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.“

“You get your food elsewhere eat n drink there 🤘🤘🤘“

“We had such a blast at Boneyard Seattle! We hosted Jasper’s birthday party there, and it couldn’t have gone better. The space was perfect for dogs and people alike, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere made it such a fun and memorable day. Highly recommend Boneyard Seattle for anyone looking to celebrate their pup or host a dog-friendly event. They made Jasper’s first birthday truly special.“

“Oh my gosh!! Thank you so much for giving my sister a great birthday experience. She had the best time and only said good things about the venue, experience and team. I believe she said her server was Kieran. Leslie was fricking great. She helped me make sure Ramona had a great time from start to finish. They loved the food and maybe the drinks a little too much, lol. I greatly appreciate yall handling this experience for me and I am so grateful to be a part of the SPIN family!“

“I support establishments that support inclusivity“

“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!! 🫶“

“My new Seattle cocktail bar!! We dropped in for an evening cocktail, and the cocktails were so amazing that we had to say for a second. The vibe is lively and swanky—great for a date to friend catchup to solo drink. I’d highly recommend this spot for their drink (and ice; iykyk) quality, vibe, service, and overall prices.“

“Super fun hangout spot. Great shows downstairs.“

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

“Great vibes, awesome decor“

“I love this place. The themed nights here are great.“

“Place is fun. Good atmosphere, Great Vibes. Definitely a place you have to check out whether you’re a local or just visiting.“

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

“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!! 😁“

“We stopped in, on our way to Pike Place Market for a bite to eat and drinks. Food was actually pretty darn good for the bar food genre. Grilled turkey sandwich was flat delicious, fries were wicked good. Very respectful beer list, we did not partake in the whiskey, but whoa was there a selection. Bar was clean, staff was accommodating and friendly. I'd for sure come back“

“What a treasure of a spot! So glad we checked this out. The atmosphere and tunes are so well curated. I'm fussy, and asked for a custom cocktail and they did not disappoint. Can't wait to return with some buds. If you like unique bars with thoughtful decor and cohesive design this is the place.“

“I love the cocktails, the people, and the atmosphere ❤️“

“Love going here! The Bartenders are great and the owner is super friendly! Great place to grab a drink and some food!“

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