Best Bar in Tacoma
This is a scenario everyone’s been in. You have a few buddies coming in town and you really want to show off the Tacoma bar scene and expose them to the best bars our city of destiny has to offer. Depending on who your buddies are you may be headed straight to Mix or you might be getting your popped collar on at chopstix.. it really just depends…
So readers if you only had one bar you could take your crew to for the night what would it be and why? This what a really hard decision for me, how about you?
If I don’t have your favorite on the poll, just list it in the comments and I’ll add it. Show your support for your favorite bar and vote! The winning bar gets a big glass of google juice for when people search for “Best Bar in Tacoma”
Happy Drinking Tacoma

Parkway! For SURE! Great beers, great staff, good cheap food, and great crowd any day of the week. Consistently solid, never boring. Red Hot my #2 vote…

Acme Grub Cage is making a great comeback.
If you haven’t visited recently, it would be worth your time to try it for youself.

Michael, Thanks for putting this together! As somewhat of a Tacoma Noob… It’s great to hear of all these bars I haven’t been to yet.
