Is it the ample bleu cheese crumbles, candied pecan chunks, or dried cranberries??? It's all of it. Maybe it's the low lights and inviting sense of brewery in the air. Maybe it's just the beer.

Place with a little slow, but that was only because I was there within the first half an hour opening. The place is very clean, very organized and they had merchandise and a very visually appetizing from within. The BLT came out and it was very good. The sun-dried tomato mayo was phenomenal. There was a lot of bacon and the tomatoes were very crisp and fresh which had added a bunch of flavor to the sandwich. I would definitely come back again if I live closer and check out more items off the food menu. I did end up buying merchandise which was a tin sign and some stickers to go home with.

But the inattentive and semi-passive FOH staff made it difficult…read more They're still a newer storefront in Oly, in time they may grow and reflect better customer service. Pros: Chill lounge/sitting area at the front corner with sofas, a low bar (accessibility friendly) and board games. Big tables to accommodate groups and various bar seating. Large brewery menu screens with large range and the food looked good. Tbh we came for brews so can't comment on food. The Wildman Beer brand was so-so. Some better than others! Cons: FOH staff interaction. Why we love pubs/breweries is because of the chill, friendly, conversational flow of FOH; their knowledge of the beers and/or cocktails, their passion for sharing it with new customers so they come back again and again ... this vibe fell short at Wildman. TL;DR Good for a basic group of people looking for a brewery experience in town with room for large groups. Not for those who are expecting an awesome brewery experience -- a la PDX, DEN, PHX, ATX or SEA.

But when I saw that they opened up a location in Olympia and Steve and I were going to Olympia for a show it made perfect sense to go to this new location. Downtown where our show was is super walkable and this brewery is right there. When we went in what escaped my attention at the Raymond location was that I was particularly impressed with their own mead selection. And the mead did not disappoint in the slightest. The first mead I had was their Oak Aged Classic Mead. Such fantastic balance in body and the oak flavor was truly impressive! I got another mead from the list, the Sneaky Bastard Meer. It's called meer I believe due to the five different kinds of hops they put into it. Great floral and honey flavored highlights! Our experience here was excellent! Steve enjoyed his drink selections as well! Definitely returning for more mead enjoyment!

The tots were so crunchy and had a great amount of Cajun seasoning. When I order tots at places I'm often disappointed because they're undercooked or very greasy or lack flavor, but these guys really nailed it. These tots were not greasy, as crunchy as they could have been and so tasty. Friendly service from the server with the cool short blonde hair and the rest of the team as well.

Before a show nearby we checked out the Spar Cafe. My husband and I are huge McMenamins fans and…read morethis was one we hadn't been to yet - perfect opportunity to get our McMenamin's passport stamped! The vibe here is identical to all of the other McMenamin's properties. Low lighting, eclectic, and lots of original components. So cool to see the pictures here from back in the day with little changed in the space! The barback here is super cool and you can tell it's original. Our waitress was great - she was nice and huge shoutout to her for recognizing we had our passports because we almost forgot to get them stamped (hate to say we do this pretty often). I always get their hazy IPA, it never disappoints. They also usually have good cider options for my husband which is always a relief since he can't do beer much anymore. The food at any of their properties is always pretty solid and that was true here as well. I went pretty basic and just got a cheeseburger, but it was delicious! Cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. Stoked that we finally checked out this location - we'd definitely return if we were in the area again.

Went here for my first ever burlesque show only! Got no food or drinks, but I did walk past the bar…read morewhen I entered, and I love the coziness of it all with the leather couch chairs in a circle. Reminds me of being at home with the set-up. Service was nice! Shoutout to the volunteers holding down the stage and ensuring that tips were being collected after each performance with mindfulness of the audience that they may be in the way of. They even offer exchanges for singles if you brought cash and want to break it. No need to stop by atm if you forgot to do so before the show. 15 minute intermission at the halftime of the 2-hourish burlesque show, which was enough time to do what you need. I think that they have bathroom here, but unsure of the cleanliness because I did not go. The stage that they perform at is cutely decorated with sparkly streamers and the volunteers do their best to clean the stage after each performed so that no slip-ups happen...and thankfully that did not occur during my time there! I like that the burlesque was prop-heavy for some performances because apparently it is not common in the burlesque scene. The emcee, dulce, did a great job to ensure that the crowd was enjoying their time while performers got ready. I wish that for the ticket, they specified how long the shows were. All tix said 1800 or 6PM start time, so pls look at your entire ticket order because you may be out in for the late-night show at 2100 or 9pm...espscially if that is what you ordered. anyway, the performers were super duper great. No complaints. Got my money's worth for my general admission ticket of $28.52. It is near the vip chairs, but vip got more crowd interaction with the performers dancing on them. if u want that, get vip tix! Not that much of a difference in pricing from what I remember. Another thing was that it would have been nice if they listed who the performers will be on the ticket order or on the front of the spot when you enter the door. Just better advertising would be nice so that even more people can see the talent!! Parking was good with the side street. Car did not get broken into...Read the signs, though! Usually, the side street parking is on the weekdays from 0800 to 1700, or 8AM to 5PM.

Now if I remember from what I read correctly the folks that run this place were employees of Wild Man Brewing which had a location here (but closed). After studying the tap list it looks like what they carry here primarily is guest tap beers and meads from local breweries and meaderies and doesn't appear that they make their own like the predecessor of this space. But that's okay as it's a really cool place. The guest taps they have are good... nice and cold. The food is good as well. I got a pulled pork sandwich... something that I haven't had in a really long time. I enjoyed it... it was nice and tasty! It was a nice sized lunch along with the fries. The people that work here are nice and friendly and the space here is fun. Definitely a cool place to come and hang out in!
