    Friendly staff. The burger was great and the store was very clean. I plan to go back again soon.

    I love this fast food joint. The fries are the best thing ever! Burgers are soo good. I give this place 4 stars cause I feel like their iceberg lettuce could be more fresh. We got jr bacon cheeseburgers and black angus cheeseburgers. They all provided amazing fast food euphoria on our taste buds. My father in law says they have good ice cream treats, but we didn't try any. The fry sauce seems to be popular, but I barely dipped my fries in it.

    Good local fast food. Love the fry sauce. And tots. My son always loves the chicken rings and fries. Better than McDonald's.

    Its ok. One time, their ice cream made me feel terrible. I don't like their ice cream as much as I like other ice cream.

    Stopped at Bill's Place while I was in Yakima and got an order to go. I was really impressed with…read moreeverything I tried. I got the traditional cheeseburger and added an extra patty. It is kind of like a smash burger, but the patties are actually decently thick and still have that really good grilled crust on the outside. The burger was cooked really well and the bun was one of the best parts. It is bigger and a little heavier than a normal burger bun, and it held everything together really well. I also got the buffalo wings and thought they were really good. You get a great portion for the price and they had plenty of flavor. I also tried the grilled cheese with bacon added. It comes on sourdough and was grilled perfectly. Really simple, but really good. The fries were also very good, although I definitely recommend eating them right away while they are hot. They did not hold up quite as well after sitting in the takeout box for a while. I only went inside long enough to pick up my food, but the bar itself was actually really nice. It had a much better atmosphere than I was expecting. If I am ever back in Yakima, I would definitely stop in again and actually sit down for a burger and a drink.

We've always sat in the main part of the Tavern, but the first person arriving chose to sit in the side room which seems to be a back-up supplies room with a long table for guests since it was quieter. It was quieter. No matter the sitting location, the service has always been great. I had the Reuben sandwich, and it was excellent--flavorful, well made, and generously portioned. Even better, they actually had horseradish available, which is surprisingly hard to find and made the whole thing even better for me. A solid, satisfying meal with plenty to take home half for the next day. I'll definitely be back.

    Love a good burger joint! Ordered the miners double burger with cheese (at extra cost)- all the…read morehand size comparison photos really don't even do this thing justice! It's HUGE! I had them cut it in half and my husband and I split it with a side of fries! We barely even touched the fries and were stuffed! It was a great burger! Lots of fresh veggies, if it were a single patty I don't know that it would have been as good because theyre thin patties, similar to McDonald's. We ate in the car which was a mistake lol. They're pretty messy, a lot of dripping and onions falling out etc- as a good burger should be!!! The regular fries were just like McDonald's though could have used a bit more salt... My diet soda tasted watered down, like the machine needed a refill which is a real bummer, especially when you're spending $5 on a soda. Staff wasnt terribly friendly- kind of felt rushed like I was unconvincing them or something. Thought $36 for a burger, fries, small soda and small shake was a bit much but again, we did split it and were stuffed so guess can't really complain too much.

The restaurant has a spacious sit-down dining area, and the staff was friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. As for the food, the sides were the clear winner. The tater tots were awesome--perfectly crispy on the outside and warm and tender on the inside. The burger is undeniably massive, but unfortunately, the patty itself was on the drier side. Given that it's their signature item, the burger definitely could use some work to match the portion size. Overall, it's a great hangout spot with awesome sides and friendly service, but the main event needs a bit of fine-tuning.
