My friend and I came here for a late lunch on Monday. We got the icy drops peach flavored and it was bomb. Comes in an ice cup which is cool and sugar on the rim. My friend did the chicken noodle soup and mac & cheese, she said it was good. I did the Caesar salad entree but it was a small portion. Overall, not bad. Our waiter was nice. Chill vibes, good place with lots of options.

WESTERN BURGER
Monica P.

Sports bar and brewery in the middle of Lakewood. Landed at JBLM earlier in the day and wanted a place to grab a beer and dinner. We were greeted and seated promptly. The waitress arrived equally as quick with water and menus. Appetizer and beers arrived fast as did the food. The chicken Avacado salad was fantastic and the burger was juicy and cooked perfect. Quick, friendly service, good food and lots of TVs to catch a game.

CALIFORNIA TURKEY sandwich with SIDE TATER TOTS: 5/5 super yummy!! In the background is a burger, but can't remember which one he ordered

This time it was a BUSY Friday night. We sat ourselves at the bar as there was open tables. Service was fast and our server, Peyton, was fantastic. The staff here are all great: friendly, professional, and kind. We ordered and drinks and food arrived and were tasty. We ordered dessert and it was great too. Bonus: if you add the store app you get free donuts. The entire experience was 5/5, definitely loved it. Ambiance is great at the bar: open seating with TVs and games played all around. It was super busy and louder than usual, but not too crazy. The tots here are 5/5: definitely order those! Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Outstanding!!

SMASH BURGER, MAC DELUXE BURGER,

Random friday evening, we were so hungry for dinner! Ive been to the one in Maple Valley before and also appreciated this spot as well. It was busy yet the bar had plenty of seating. We both had two different versions of their 'drop' drinks which were on the lighter side yet delicious and the food did not miss (their portions are always so huge)!

Evaluation of this establishment interrupted. Irish Death on tap.

We frequently dine at this establishment. It's one of our favorite spots. All our previous visits have been favorable. Yesterday we stopped in for a snack and beverage in the early afternoon. The place was by no means busy. We seated ourselves in a booth in the bar and watched for 15 minutes while no less than four employees walked by, doing a great job of avoiding eye contact with anyone at our table. Finally a server came and took our drink order. Cut to the end.... we decided to eat somewhere else. After waiting over 15 minutes for a beer (while sitting in the bar), we decided not to risk the inevitable wait for food. Sorry Hops -n- Drops, but it'll be awhile before we come back.

The fire pit in the outdoor, pet-friendly area.
Stacie S.

Good food, good beer, and great service! We love the pet friendly outdoor seating with the fire pit!! We will be back when in Salem, for sure. The ambiance and the vibe are casual and friendly.

Not the best experience but not horrible either. We came at happy hour and it was slow so there was no wait. We sat in the bar area. I ordered the mini fish and chips with a specialty drink. My partner ordered a smash burger and fries. We also had the rib tips as an appetizer. The food was good and I would return for that but the severs were pretty non-existent. We needed water and ketchup after our food was dropped off but no one returned so we could ask. We consumed everything as it was, paid and went to our movie. I'd like to try it at another time as it was my first time and everyone is allowed to have an off day.

I have never been to this location, I decided to try on a whim. Tried the mushroom burger, it came wrapped up in paper to ear, dripping in grease which did not improver over time. Halfway through I could not handle the grease anymore. My bun was saturated my hands a mess despite the paper to hold it with grease pulling to the bottom where my hands where due to gravity. The burger did have good flavor, mushrooms definitely sautéed, fries were decent. Just too greasy. Atmosphere was decent, lots of families seated around. Average, to loud, sound. Restaurant seemed clean and staff was pleasant enough. Found parking adequate. I don't think I would return anytime soon. My daughter got the steak salad. We felt that the price and amount of tiny chopped steak pieces, she should have had more steak. She did share the salad tasted good. Just a bit pricey for what you got.

JALAPEO CREAM CHEESE BURGER, CHICKEN TAQUITOS, BACON BURGER
Vanessa F.

The customer service was amazing despite the fact that there was only 1 waitress working the floor. We sat outside to enjoy the beautiful weather and our waitress never once forgot about us. She definitely made our experience a fantastic one. The food was delicious! The taquitos were light and crispy & our burgers were fresh and cooked well. I didn't care too much for the French fries though. Overall, it was a great lunch!

Does not look like a Patty Melt to me! Meat was so old and gross! Chips were hard as a rock. Just really poor quality of food.

Lake City Pub is one of my go-to places whenever I'm in the area--and one of those places I love…read morebringing someone when I want to treat them to a good time. The staff is consistently great: friendly, attentive, and somehow always there when you need something without making you feel rushed. I especially love coming here around the holidays. They really lean into the season and create such a fun, cozy atmosphere, complete with seasonal drinks and cocktails that make it feel like an occasion even when you're just stopping in for dinner. I'm a whiskey gal, so naturally I've worked my way toward their Old Fashioneds. They make a good one--balanced, not overly sweet, and exactly what I want when I'm sitting down with some comfort food. I've tried several dishes here over the years and genuinely haven't been disappointed yet. But I keep coming back to the Reuben. A Reuben seems simple until you've had a bad one. Too much sauerkraut and that's all you taste. Too much dressing and everything gets soggy. Not enough meat and you're wondering why you ordered a sandwich in the first place. Lake City Pub gets the balance right. The perfect amount of everything in every bite--savory, tangy, cheesy, crispy, and satisfying without any one ingredient taking over. There's a reason I keep coming back. Great people, great cocktails, great food, and a place I'm always happy to introduce someone else to. 10/10. Love this place.

My first visit to this pub was fantastic. The food was great, the drinks were even better, and our…read moreserver was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. The server, he was one of the reasons I was actually excited to come back. Unfortunately, my second visit was memorable for all the wrong reasons. Before we even sat down, we were greeted by the owner--or, more accurately, acknowledged as an inconvenience. The pub was nearly empty except for one gentleman at the bar, and she seemed far more interested in continuing that conversation than welcoming what appeared to be paying customers. It genuinely felt like interrupting someone's first date. When she finally came over, she somehow managed to be both smiling and incredibly hostile at the same time. It takes a special talent to make an entire group feel uncomfortable while wearing a grin, but she pulled it off flawlessly. The passive-aggressive Olympics would have awarded gold. I have no problem with owners having personality, but treating customers like they're a burden isn't a business model--it's a fast track to empty tables. Add in parking her Jeep in the closest customer spot right in front of the entrance, and it gave off the impression that customer convenience wasn't exactly high on the priority list. If the goal is to use the bar as a personal dating lounge, that's completely fine--but maybe rename it something like F-boy Island, Love Is Blind: Happy Hour Edition, or The Bachelorette Tavern. At least then customers would know what experience they're signing up for. To be fair, the place itself is adorable. It's cozy, unique, and obviously decorated with a lot of love. Between the Christmas lights, faux clouds, flowers, and whimsical touches, it feels less like an Irish pub and more like someone combined Pinterest with a Hallmark movie. Honestly, I'd hire her to decorate a little girl's bedroom in a heartbeat. After reading other reviews, I was disappointed--but not surprised--to see that this doesn't appear to be an isolated experience. It's unfortunate because the food, drinks, and atmosphere have so much potential. A welcoming attitude from the owner would had made all the difference. I'd happily return for the food and the server from my first visit. Returning for the hospitality? That's a much harder sell.

I'm finally on a streak on hitting the right stops! What a beautiful place next to the wasteland…read moreof Tacoma. The place is VERY beautiful inside. Most of all.... They have OUTDOOR SEATING!!! Let's start off with the MOCK COCKTAIL the Blueberry Mojito. OMG! It was DELICIOUS!!! It had a lot of flavors. Then came out the Beef Wellingtons. They were shooters. The menu says they typically come out in about 25 minutes. We ordered them anyway. Luckily for us they came out first. They were delicious!!! Nice and hot. The breading was nice and flaky. We will ordering these again! The shrimp cocktail and the salads came out. They were all good. However, my wife noted that her Avocado and Bacon Salad needed more Avocado and Bacon. Last the Garlic Ptarmigan Fries. The garlic level can be considered "Date Level". So, if you are looking for something more garlicky then this is not really for you. Salted Rim Bar and Kitchen was really busy. Especially for a Sunday night. They had a trivia contest going on so it was a little loud. However, with the business of the night they had enough staff to go around. With the staff being plentiful we were not ignored. As for the staff themselves they were all extremely nice and friendly. We will most definitely come back here again!!

And a Chicken Fried Steak breakfast, eggs over easy. And sorry, but I know my French Toast Bears Choice was the best. They use their awesome sourdough bread to dip and toast. Perfectly toasty with that soft luscious interior It's worth the drive. Are the scrambled eggs fluffy and flavorful? Yes. The bacon crisp and hash browns tender with a crisp crust? Yes. And my spouse was all about the perfect over easy eggs and chicken fried steak. But I swear by the french toast. Should have reviewed this place before, I mean it's been years. Seating was quick, even though they were busy. Plan on taking some home unless you are eating big (or burning calories). Black Bear Diner has one of the largest takeout container budgets in the industry. And who doesn't like two for one meals? Excellent selection of desserts (we always plan to take some home, cause we are always full). Restrooms are clean Service is good
