    Rueben burger. Corned beef was extremely tough and lacked flavour. Burger was way over booked
    Robert W.

    Our server was pleasant and accommodating. One of my dining companions had shrimp scampi to say it was bad was putting it mildly. Swimming is wine sauce the mushrooms still raw. I had the Reuben burger. Corned beef dry and no flavour. Patty over cooked Salad was just fine. We do love live in the area so doubtful we'll be back. If we do we might consider with another dining option

    Soggy, oily fish :(

    The place has a nice atmosphere, the staff is pretty good but the food was BAD... we went on Monday and got the 2 for 1 fish n chips and some chowder. The clam chowder had a small portion, was lukewarm at best, and had a burnt taste to it. The fish was soggy with oil, and had an unpleasant taste and texture with a fat strip of cartilage or something running through it. The waitress/bartender was nice enough to swap it out for a couple of corned beef sandwiches, but they were dry and stringy. Three people came out to just under $100 for some bad food. Just not very good at all. I just wouldn't recommend this place at all. I also had a Mack 'n Jacks beer and it just tasted... odd. I dont think they clean their keg taps very often...

    Great place for most everything. It has four specific areas. Arcade which is kid friendly, Bar in the arcade which is parent friendly, restaurant area for everyone and a large bar area with a stage providing for live music, dancing & shenanigans. Overall, one of my favorit places. I, actually go for the music and dancing most Thursday's and Saturday's and some Fridays. If you see me say "hi"

    Wow! What a find! We LOVED the spacious seating, variety of arcade fun, separate bar area and grest service. We tried the fish and chips, pizza and burger. Highly recommend the burger! They have great daily deals too. Nick, our server was fantastic and on top of it. He was friendly and helpful with the gambling tabs we were curious about. We would come back in a heartbeat!

    Been a lot of staff changes and they don't have a door cover for bands anymore. It's gotten a lot better!

    My husband and I were in the area looking at houses and needed something to eat, so we found this place b/c it was casual and close by. When you walk in, there are beer memorabilia and flags that decorate the walls. I assumed it was like a English Pub, but they also have some german foods, so I will call it a "European" pub. We came in on a Thursday afternoon, so it was fairly quiet, but there were a handful of couples there. The space is very large - there is the large main space with the stage and a bar, then there is another room with tables and another bar and THEN there is an arcade. From what I got from past reviews, Purdy's has only been in this space for at least a year. I thought the space was well kept and clean. It has the dive bar feel, but it is not divey. To drink I got the Lavender Martini, which was a pretty lavendar color and I could taste the lavender. To eat I got a bowl of clam chowder and my husband got a cesar salad and a Meatsy calzone. The clam chowder was good - it wasn't the best I have ever had, but it wasn't the worse. My husband loved the calzone - it had black olives, pepperoni and sausage and it was large (but he managed to eat it all...I did help a little!). Jenny was our waitress and she was so sweet and nice. She had a fun personality.

    We used to visit Purdue when they were in the chalet on the 410 but since they moved (and Covid) we've been reluctant to be in what appeared to be an always crowded venue. We finally went today for lunch. The space is impressive and the decor is well done for such a large space. We also felt very welcomed by our server who was also the bartender. Nice easy going guy. It appears they have nightly specials and also a special drink menu, too, and there's a large arcade that I didn't go see. They also have tap tv trivia on the multiple screens throughout the space. I was disappointed in the food. I ordered a crispy chicken sandwich and it was served with just two tiny over breaded chicken fingers. I seriously doubt there was 2 ounces of chicken on that sandwich. Two Mickey D nuggets have double the meat that my $14 chicken sandwich had. Photos included for example. My friend ordered a wedge salad and added chicken. It was cubed but easily 4 times more chicken than my sandwich. I may be back but it will be for scotch eggs. At least then I know I'll get enough protein.

    I've been to Bumpy's before and always had great service and a good time. Typical dive bar and on…read morethe weekends has great energy and a mix of every type of human that walks the earth. - I don't know what changed from a few months ago, but our "experience"" last weekend was awful. My daughter had just turned 21 and we wanted to take her out, so about 10 of us headed into Bumpy's. The second we walked in we were greeted with eyerolls and a very bi**hy attitude from the bartender. Before we could even order, she yells "We don't serve anyone with a vertical". Okay - well apparently you don't like tips then? In Washington you can't get your horizontal until AFTER you turn 21. So that means the day of your 21st - you're going to have a vertical and probably will have it for the next 3-6 weeks after. Initially they tried to tell us it's the law. WRONG. The only law is that the establishment has to check the birthdate and the photo. The staff at Bumpy's wanted no part of that - which, how lazy can you get?! Call me crazy but I don't think many kids with fakes are going to get a VERTICAL fake! Use your brains Bumpy's. If the liquor board is on your a$$ for serving minors - it's not because you're serving people with vertical IDs. It's because you aren't checking the birthdate and the photo on the HORIZONTAL ID to begin with - and you clearly don't own a scanner. Zero reason to greet customers so rudely. Just bad business all around. Too bad, too.. We're good tippers. That bartender could've made about $300 just off us.

    My friend picked us up from the airport and practical joker he is, took us here for a drink. I…read moreshould mention that it's my first time in the Seattle/Tacoma area other than driving along the coast from Canada to LA several years ago. This is a typical dive bar with regulars at the bar looking hazily at their libations. Soft rock played in the background and lots of high tops beside the bar. I was asked to order and picked out deviled eggs and nachos! How could you go wrong even if they were so so? Well, the joke was on our friend because they were delicious! The deviled eggs had bacon crumpled on top with sliced green onions and were served on a bed of greens! The nachos were well covered and must have been prepared in layers. Dive bars can have great food!

    4.5 stars! Love The Mill! Have been coming here for years…read moreand the food is consistently wonderful. Brunch, Special menus for holidays, dinner, cocktails, dessert-it has all been top notch. This is a gem. Menu changes regularly so there is always something fresh and new. Prices may seem a little high for the area but the food and drink justify it. On my most recent visit we got 2 appetizers, two entrees (one was steak with shrimp add on), 3 desserts, and 5 cocktails for $250 which was not outrageous. Portion sizes are great. Food is full of flavor and cooked perfectly. We have sat on the restaurant side a few times but normally sit in a booth on the bar side. There is also a small patio off the bar in good weather. Bartenders are friendly and engaging. Plenty of parking and easy to get to. Only reason I knocked it a half star is the service on the bar side can be slow or feel forgotten about sometimes but it just depends on the time of day and if the bartender is having to do double duty or if they have dedicated wait staff in that area.

When we walked in, we had the option of going to the bar area or restaurant. We chose the bar. The place was spacious and had ample seating. We sat down and a gal came to our table to ask for our order. She immediately came off as very standoffish, but, all good, we were there to relax and enjoy. We ordered wings to start off with. Mind you, it was happy hour which she mentioned herself. Cool, thank you. The wings were decent but some were soggy. But it's all good. We then ordered an entree and more wings because we were hungry. Did another dozen wings in the buffalo sauce. Our waitress, Kalidawn, reiterating the wings were 2 orders. Didn't make sense but it did in the end as she was trying to separate the orders as "half orders" to charge more? When in reality, it was the same buffalo flavor for the dozen wings so it wasn't a "half order". Really? You're going to do all of that to get you an extra few dollars? She was already rude, dismissive, and bothered from the beginning. We try to look past these things but she was truly excessive. It's like she wanted to make a statement and hated that we weren't regulars. We ended up getting sick after eating here. The service was beyond disappointing and the food sucked, but we also got sick which was the cherry on the cake. We will never be back and hope others think twice. And to find out, Kalidawn is the manager at the restaurant. So don't even bother trying to complain about her horrible HORRIBLE service and attitude. She runs the place which makes sense as to why I'm sure they're struggling. Do better.
