Honestly we go here at least once a week and it's always wonderful!! Its where I can always get a healthy meal. I know that sounds crazy for a pub on the verge of dive bar but seriously I can order a salmon filet with fresh broccoli, not frozen. They make their own dough for their pizza and calzones, should be on diners drive ins and dives! read more

This is a frequent Thursday night stop for the dragon boat team. First, know that it will be loud. It's a bar. If you want to have a conversation you will be competing with the volume of everyone else. No surprise. It's a bar. The service is friendly but can very slow. Be prepared for a wait on drink refreshes and food delivery. Given the business of the Hy Iu Hee Hee, this shouldn't be a surprise. The food is quite good. The steak chili in particular is very good. Tots with a side of blue cheese are a great app choice. The selection of tap beers is excellent. Hy Iu Hee Hee is a great local bar and I recommend trying it out to see if it's for you. read more

So probably about 20 or 19 years ago, this was the first place I ever had an alcoholic drink in public. Many of my friends were younger than me so I didn't get a chance to enjoy with many friends but I had one who luckily could go with me and we decided to start here. So I always remember that and this place is probably been here longer than I've even been on this planet. Randomly on a weekday morning after staying with family for the holidays, I decided to stop and see if they actually had breakfast. It was hard to tell from the website but they do! And it was darn good breakfast. I had The Benedict which was actually really good and completely worth it! My husband had one of their country fried steaks which was way more food than he thought he would get and he was very pleased with it. Definitely recommended for breakfast so far! I was glad that they were open on a weekday as well. read more

JP's Hy Iu Hee Hee - Eggs Benedict and chicken fried steak - Pizza Near Me - Gig Harbor, Washington

Sat at the bar on a Sunday. Staff took a while to get over to us. When they did, we were able to order quickly. We got joes special, which here has hamburger instead of the typical sausage. Interesting switch. Toast was tasty except for the burnt parts. Red potatoes were good but cut so large not all of them were cooked through leaving some pieces crunchy. DH liked the bison sausage, flavorful without being over powering. We frequent the Time Out so it was cool to see another one of JP's restaurants. read more

After several visits, the service is just too damn slow! Typically takes about 15 minutes to get your coffee and another 1/2 hour for food after you've ordered. I just don't understand why there is not more wait staff working as it's always busy. read more

Chicken fried steak was very good quality. I believe it is made with a ribeye. The bar gets pretty busy, so I suggest getting there earlier to get the best seating. Pull tabs are fun while you wait. read more

Stopped in for a togo order. Vehicle was hit from what was an over served person probably. no cameras in front of building owners won't help with locating hit and run. Park at your own risk. Outside could use cleaning reminds me of going to the transfer station with all the grease and grime all over the parking lot. Can't expect to much from a dive read more

A couple of weeks ago, a large number of us from a local club had its monthly club breakfast there. We had reservations but still it's a popular place and the fact that we were accommodated so quickly was amazing to me. Not only is this restaurant à great place to watch sports, it's located in a rural area so thé view out the windows is really nice. In addition, it was bustling but we were able to talk to each other without yelling. It was a wonderful place to talk and get to know new people. My breakfast was incredible and only came to about $25, and that was with a mimosa! Great value for the amazing food. We were given so much that I took half home for later. The waitress was running around like crazy and did a great job. I couldn't have done it myself. I will be taking people there for breakfast again, even though I don't live in the harbor. Well worth the small trip! I'd give it 10 stars if I could. read more

I came here for my friends bday brunch. We had a big party, I think there was around 12 people. I don't expect everything to be perfect when you walk in with a big party and I can tell the waitress was overwhelmed. We are a pretty easy going group though. The food was great and I was very happy with my order. The staff was definitely friendly and trying so hard to keep up with our big table. I appreciate that. The lack of stars comes from two specific things: The first - we ordered mimosas and noticed half the table received a mini split with their cocktail (same one) and me and one other woman did not. I don't like inconsistency. I've been there before and always received the rest of the mini split. The second star missing is because after the food was delivered, one person never received their entree. It would t have been a big deal except we weren't checked on again until after everyone else was practically done eating and that was the first chance she had to ask for her meal in which case the waitress asked if she wanted it "to go" she said - "no, I'm very hungry, I'd like to eat it here please." It came, and it ended up being find. Again - nothing that bad, but definitely a few remarkable items. I would still return, just with a smaller party. I don't think they can handle big groups and that's ok. read more

I have been going to this restaurant for 26 years for breakfast on Saturdays my friends and I either go there or we go to the garage in Bremerton. Today we sat at the large section at the restaurant our normal waitress that we have there as soon as you sit down, you get your coffee and your water and you can order today. We waited one hour for anybody to come over and give us water coffee. Finally, the waitress came over and gave us coffee and then walked away. We had to wait another 10 minutes to get her to come back to take our order then it's took 45 minutes for us to get our breakfast and it came out cold. We had ordered extra bacon. We didn't get one of our guests had ordered orange juice. He never got she never came back to offer us coffee another waitress went walking by with the coffee pot and was able to give us coffee. When the bill came, the extra bacon was on both of our bills and orange juice was on the other gentleman's bill. We said it we never got our extra bacon. He never got his orange juice. She said I'll take it off the bill so she took it off the bill. I asked her why it was taking so long to get Service and breakfast. She said they were busy. The other two servers that we normally see there one of them on a Saturday did the whole restaurant by herself and we never had to wait more than 10 or 15 minutes. This waitress was way over her head and she should've asked for help. I stopped and spoke to one of the other servers and it said why is it so bad today I said didn't you bother you to help her? I said yes we did and she said no she can handle it so I believe she was more interested in her tips and she wasn't service so the next week we're going back to the garage up in Bremerton. read more

Good fud! Great Bar Service! Can get very crowded for sport events Bar at times can be so busy, delays can occur. Bar takes priority over kitchen. Be sure to ck your fud order if ordering "options" or "restrictions." Kitchen errors can occur during busy hours. Overall, nice place, busy and friendly. Gotta Go! read more

We have been so blessed during our trip to Washington. My husband's stepmom lives in Gig Harbor so she brought us to this local watering hole. My bonus mom in law gave us an option to eat on the harbor over looking the water or a tavern. My husband picked tavern. Vibe: Cozy, cabin, outdoorsy, casual Service: Our waiter was nice. He had such a distinctive voice and personality. Service was a little slow though because we were a large party and so was another party. Food- I got the Wagyu burger with grilled jalapeños and tots. It was absolutely delicious, one of the best burgers I've ever had. Meat, veggies and brioche bun were good. My husband got the Hi Iu burger and it was huge. Of course I had to try a Gig Harbor Comet Pale Ale and it was delicious. Very smooth and flavorful. The sample platter is how everyone should do a sample platter, bacon wrapped prawns, bacon wrapped jalapeños, waffle fries..sauces to dip, ect. All 7 of us killed the plate. The fried pickles were a knock out. You can buy pull tabs to try to win $, from $ up to $2500 which is such a cool idea. Would have been a homerun and knocked out of the park, except they burned our nephew's Calzone and took forever to remake a new one. Otherwise, an amazing experience and I'd love to return to try other things. read more

After 9 years I felt like an updated review was due. At this point I'm completely bias so not much to update. After 10 years living in the harbor this has become my only go-too staple. Jax and Sam take very good care of us. The food is 90% good, 5% great, and 5%... I cannot say that about a LOT of places in GH anymore. This is just a classic watering hole with decent food and slow service. Just the way I like it. But really, Costco should subsidize these guys. I have spent more money than I should have "eating" lunch before shopping. I doubt I'm alone. read more

JP's Hy Iu Hee Hee - Doesn't get much better than this... - Pizza Near Me - Gig Harbor, Washington

Hy Lu Hee Hee means "Good Times and Lots of Laughter." The Hy lu Hee Hee is a Gig Harbor, WA local's hang-out that got it start as a Tavern in 1935. In 1958, the State condemned the tavern building and asked that the business vacate the premises, so they could build a new highway to Purdy. The business was rebuilt in 1983, in a new location, by new owners, which is where it has remained ever since. I have been visiting Gig Harbor since 1990, but my first visit to the Hy Lu Hee Hee wasnt until 5/19/23, which was a Friday. Although I arrived before 9 PM, the music was LOUD! I've decided to do a sound check via the app SoundPrint. It averaged 83 dB and got as high as 88 dB, which is considered Very Loud. That would've been acceptable if I had signed up to see a live band, but it wasn't. It was bad pre-recorded music, being played over blown speakers. I had to shout out my order. Everyone around me was shouting too. My server told me this is the norm after 9 PM. Unless you're already deaf, or enjoy the thought of shouting at your dining companions, I recommend you visit the Hy Lu Hee Hee earlier in the day. I have included a video, but it doesn't really do justice to how loud it was in person. I ordered one of the five house favorites on the menu, Fish + Chips ($17) - Breaded and Seasoned Wild Alaskan True Cod with Fries, House Slaw + Tartar Sauce. Compared to all the fish and chips I've eaten in Washington state, it was pretty standard fare. It was a generous portion of fries, and I liked the housemade tartar sauce. The coleslaw had decent flavor, but it obviously been made sometime ago and was swimming in liquid. Personally, I prefer Tides Tavern, which is another Gig Harbor local's hang out, but I'll be back at some point to visit the Hy lu Hee Hee. Next time, I'll just make sure to do it earlier in the day. read more

Go. It's by far the best deal in town. Great staff, food, and venue. TV's playing the game you need to watch and games everywhere. This place MAKES Gig Harbor. Literally the best thing in Gig Harbor. read more

I didn't have the best experience at this popular spot. Parking was an issue which to me is a good thing when tying out a new places. We found parking across the street so that was OK. But, after the beer arrived we waited for our food a long time as everyone around us that came in later was served first I realized there was a problem. Our food was given to the wrong table by the guy that came out of the kitchen since they ordered the other table ordered the exact same thing. I figured our order would be out soon after that but it wasn't. When I asked our waitress about it, she just shrugged her shoulders. I enjoyed the food when we finally got it but was very disappointed by the overall experiance. They were busy so I will give them a break but didn't appreciate our waitresses response to my inquiry about our order when it didn't arrive. I did enjoy the Rueben sliders and the Mac & Jack on tap when finally served but that was about it. I wasn't dissapointed with the food just the service. I may try it again but the whole experience kind of left a bad taste in my mouth. If I'm in Gig Harbor one of these days around Happy Hour, I may just stop in for a better experience. read more

When do many of gig harbor's restaurants seek to be going down hill the Hy Lu just keeps getting better. It's clean (for a bar) the staff is awesome, no matter the time of day or who's waiting on you (though our personal favorite is Jax) and the food is consistently good. I love the cod sandwich (though I ask for it to be extra crispy) and the Gorgonzola fries (pro tip - the the sweet potato fries with the Gorgonzola on the side). Their salads are yummy as well as the salmon sandwich. My husband is a big fan of their burgers and the Italian sandwich. For breakfast my go to is the veggie scramble or eggs Benedict but you cannot go wrong with their biscuits and gravy. And of course, a solid Bloody Mary. The pours are solid, staff amazing, food's delicious (and fresh, with lots of local ingredients). What more could you ask for?? read more

What a great bar! Fun place to watch a game with friendly staff, plenty of tvs, pull tabs and great food! The chicken wings are nice and crispy and the pizza is really good! read more

Food was a 4 and service was a 1. I get concerned when the server doesn't write the order down. She had to come back and ask again what we ordered. It was a little busy and took 45 mins to get our food. We were told our ticket got lost. This explains the soggy pizza we received. read more

Went in on a Saturday for a late breakfast with my family. We have usually had a good experience there - great dressings and good food. However, after we received our orders, the waitress never checked on us. We were out of drinks, didn't receive our orders correctly...but by the time we finally got her to help us, we were ready to go. We explained we had wanted more drinks and there were issues with our orders. She was out right rude and defensive. Very disappointing. read more

A long time customer of JP's. Love the food, especially the salads that are unusually good for any restaurant much less a sports bar. Unfortunately, ordering takeout over the phone is now impossible because the website shown by Yelp no longer links to JP's. As a result there is no way to access the menu online. It's a shame that a call to the restaurant results in being told that they don't care and that they no longer have a website. read more

Been going hear for years love the food love the vibe and love the memory's !!! Cya all soon fam

I've been going to this restaurant now for about two years. Could never pronounce the name of it, but the food is incredible. The service is even better. The ambience is great. I would tell anybody that I know to go there. The servings are big enough that two people could split them no matter how hungry you were.. read more

Gig Harbor's oldest and best tavern. Nice atmosphere, great staff and the food is exceptional and tasty! Never had a bad experience there. Gotta try the waffle fries with Gorgonzola sauce. My favorite! read more

Food is good, but service is not. Sam has waiter on us several times, and she has yet to smile, or greet us with civility. There definitely isn't a welcoming feeling in the place. read more

This is a great spot to watch Hawks games. The place was packed when we arrived, but the servers were able to find a spot for us with a great view of the tv. They also were accommodating in turning up the sound so we could hear the game. We ordered the bacon wrapped prawns, which were phenomenal with the chipotle aioli, along with some delicious chicken nachos. The service was great, and we will definitely be back. read more

Amazing service, selection and food. I've never had something there that I didn't like.

Alyssa c and Shanna M are the best! They are the cutest ever! So sweet and helpful! They made me the best drinks and recommended the best food. Would come back just for them!!!! read more

Service at the bar by Alyssa was great. She clearly loves her job! Also, I'm from the east coast and their clam chowder did not disappoint! That's the first time in 3 years on the west coast that I can say that. read more

I've picked take from here many times and the food has been good. Yesterday I called in an order and was told it would be ready in 20 minutes. I arrived on time and then had to wait an additional 25 minutes for the food to be ready because - as it was explained to me - one of the waitresses switched orders so that her customers could get their hamburger faster. Once I got home I found the wings were good but the hamburger was basically raw in the middle. Very disappointing experience and I imagine it will be quite a while before I come here again. read more

Been going there for about 30 years. It's changed a little bit in the last few years. The food has definitely gotten better. However, the service staff is awful. Why none of this has changed. I will never know. Me and my friends of about 45 people will never go back there again for as long as we live in the harbor and definitely will not recommend it to anyone. I just forget it's there now. It probably shouldn't be read more

I have been here a few times, and though the service is always slow - today was exceptional. If it wasn't for the awful service from rude staff today, this would have received three stars. Ordered breakfast and waited nearly 40 minutes! Asked my waitress to check on it and she got upset with me. People walked in, ordered, ate and paid their bill after I ordered and before my food arrived. Chicken fried steak was over an inch thick - there's a reason it's normally pounded and thinner.... the least they could do is trim the gristle ribbon. Worst I've ever had. I've been here a few times and the food is usually pretty good, but the testy staff ruined todays visit. If you just want a cold drink and sports on TV it okay. If you have two hours for a bad breakfast, this is your place. read more

Bar is a cool little place, plenty of parking. This was our first time in my sister invited us and said she liked the place so we stopped to get a bite she recommended the Burgers which were amazing, but when she realized who was waiting on us she said she don't write anything down and our order will come out messed up that's exactly what happened. Our server Jax had to ask us several different questions after being told a few times the order than when we paid our server put my friends card in her mouth not once but twice it was a very unsettling feeling. The ambiance is like any dive bar pull tabs, pool tables lots of windows bright in the afternoon. read more

JP's Hy Iu Hee Hee - The note my friend left for the server. - Pizza Near Me - Gig Harbor, Washington

Quickest service in Gig Harbor on a Saturday night. That's no knock on other establishments in Gig, just the facts. The food is prided on locally sourced and offers a great selection of comfort food. It caters to all ages but allows the adults a space of their own to enjoy a cocktail or enjoy your favorite televised sporting event(Seahawks and Mariners). read more

JP's Hy Iu Hee Hee - Adulting in the Bar... - Pizza Near Me - Gig Harbor, Washington

Another staple of the Gig Harbor area, but a bit lesser known. Since I have been going here they have had a few owners, but one thing that does not disappoint is their food. While it is mainly bar food, the pizza and hot wings are darn good. The hot wings are probably the hottest wings I have had in Washington. Buffalo Wild Wings you don't hold a flame to these guys. Great flavor, but you will definitely feel them the next day. :) Not the fanciest place, but they offer a decent selection of craft beer and wine. A few pool tables and always a mix crowd except late at night, when it is mainly young folks. Worth checking out if you find yourself in the area and you cannot find a table at Tides. I think you will enjoy them! read more
