stopped in for dinner on a Friday while in Post Falls for the weekend-place has really good ratings so we gave it a try....AND WOW! This place was amazing, the food was SO delicious and really unique: there's something for everyone but with a great twist. I got the squash salad and it was one of the best salads I've ever had in my life. My sister got the kimchi pancake which was really gorgeous and yummy (I had to steal a bite) and my brother got a juicy burger-they don't skimp on the fixings. Kid-friendly as well-brought my 3 year old nephew. Will be back!! Highly recommended read more

YUM! It was soooo good, and the atmosphere was amazing. We had the nachos and next time we may just go back to eat the nachos as a meal, it was that good. The portion size was huge and the flavors were creative, fun and super tasty. We also got the burger with the sweet potato fries & the fish & chips, both were great. read more

Staff is friendly, but it's crowded. Very little privacy and the food is subpar. I ordered the Brussels and pork belly last time. Brussels were overcooked and it was super greasy. Meh... read more

Went in for a late lunch. The Cauliflower appetizer was great, better than what I make in my air fryer at home. Wife had the chilli and I had the double fried chicken sandwich . Both were excellent. read more

This is my second visit to the Republic Kitchen + Tap House. Their dishes are a unique blend of ingredients that stimulate the palet. I had their Republic Chile which was amazing. I added an IPA for my beverage as we sat outside enjoying the warm weather. If you want your meal to be uniquely different with amazing flavors, give this place a try. read more

Always a welcoming environment and savory food. I've been going there for leisurely office meetings for a few years and the service is great. read more

Cute place in a sweet little neighborhood. It reminds me of neighborhood restaurants in the South. We ate the Korean style fried chicken sandwich with the sweet potato hash browns and the bleu burger with fries. The fries and chicken sandwich were awesome, but the burger was a little overcooked...and this is from someone who likes their meat medium well. We also had the cauliflower appetizer which was incredible! We also had to wait an hour and some change to be seated after they said it would take no more than 30 minutes.. read more

Food was fantastic, staff was very friendly. We highly recommend the Jalapeño popper burger and the extra cheesy mac n cheese

Super great service and great food. Andrew took care of our table and we will definitely return!

Yummy cauliflower tacos - so good & good beer. Fun to take friends too. In summer outside dining. read more

Awesome atmosphere in a historic building and fantastic food. This will be a go to stop anytime I'm around. The gold medal burger is phenomenal! read more

Good food, great service, love the environment. They did raise their prices. Well behaved dogs allowed outside. Very nice outside in Spring, Summer, Fall if not windy or raining. Have Tap beer, cider & wine. read more

Found this gem of a restaurant tonight and we were impressed. They had great patio dining. The service was spectacular. Felicia our server made us feel so at home even when we were being super indecisive. She displayed excellent customer service and I feel like we left with a new friend. We ordered 2 drinks. One was a raspberry cider which was very smooth and delicious. The other drink was a huckleberry mimosa, also very tasty. Now for the food, the pretzel and cheese sauce was "stupid-good" as Felicia would say. The Mac n cheese was tasty and a generous portion. But... the topper of the meal was the amazing apple donuts. They were the best thing I ate all day. If you are ever in Post falls, Idaho this place is a must try on your list!!! read more

We came here for lunch on a Saturday based on Yelp recommendations. There were four of us in our party, and we were able to find a seat pretty quickly in this cozy little restaurant. We live right next to a state (Idaho) that is much more open than our state (Washington) in regards to the pandemic. I don't know if this is because we are used to a little bit of a different vibe going to restaurants in Washington state, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous going into this restaurant. Upon sitting down, the table seemed sticky, and water was delivered without any straws. Again, in a normal setting, this wouldn't be a big deal, but maybe we have been conditioned to something different where we live. I was also put off by the bathroom. It wasn't filthy, but again...during a pandemic, it did not seem to be very clean. The staff was friendly, but they did not check on us too often. There's a balance with that, but it's always nice to see if someone needs more water or if there's anything they could bring during the meal. I had the Republic Fish and Chips. I'll start off by saying that the fish was hearty, not greasy at all, and very satisfying. The fries were wonderful, too. They were perfectly seasoned, not greasy, and went well with the fish. I must admit: I was confused by the additional sides. The ginger scallion tartar sauce had no semblance to any kind of tartar sauce, and it was very runny. The side of kimchi and Sunoma carrots made no sense to me and seemed very out of place on this plate. The taste of those items were tolerable, but again...They just seemed out of place. Perhaps this is more on me than the restaurant. I'm all for people doing traditional dishes in new ways. For example, I am up for a new take on tartar sauce with fish and chips and a new take on coleslaw with fish and chips. But the tartar sauce, the carrots, and the kimchi, for my taste and opinion, just seemed out of place and distracting. I would've much rather had a variation of tartar sauce that still actually tastes like tartar sauce and a variation of coleslaw that actually tasted like coleslaw. I don't think I can fault the restaurant for this because A) I give them kudos for trying something different, and B) Maybe this is based on my own preferences and not at the hands of this restaurant. Regardless, it was a pleasant experience. The people I was with all enjoyed their meals, and it may be worth another trip just to try something different. read more

Came here with my loved one and was disappointed. She ordered the chicken sandwich and it was extremely dry and just barely warm. Her fries were cold as well. I got the republic burger, the burger was decent but nothing to write home about. My side order of fries were cold as well. The waiter was nice, however he never asked if we needed anything or how or food was. $5 for a soda? C'mon really? We spent $10 just on two beverages. I have no problem paying premium prices for food as long as it's good. $17 burger with no avocado or bacon. $4 to add avocado and $3 to add bacon. I total I spent $24 on my burger alone for something sub-par. read more

The service was phenomenal. The ambience was great and the burger was out of this world. Wish I lived closer so I could eat here every night! read more

This place has a small bit of my heart. A tiny little historical house in the heart of Post Falls where I have been treated like family from the first time I walked through the door. The food is delicious and I tell you this having tried many different items. Let's take a trip through my memory bank; duck drums that are so crisp and delightful, avocado nachos which are larger than the average person's head, hot sweet potato salad that is divine and available at additional cost with sandwich or burger, a bbq salmon dish with smoke fried potatoes that are light with the occasional crunch and the beef short ribs that quite literally dissolve in my mouth hole. I have had little issue with the food here and the menu to contain all the ingredients so what you read is 100% what you get! I enjoy the staff here but as a regular customer who is a creature of habit I come the same day/time each week and am typically either served by or conversing with the fabulous Mindy who manages the joint. I am so very happy this tiny bit of glory made its way to PF! read more

Waited around 10 minutes to be seated. Went into the bar where we were told to wait outside. No one ever came and as we looked around only one table actually had food. For their sake I hope this was an anomaly. read more

FUN FACT: This restaurant is owned by Chef Adam of Guilded Unicorn, Incrediburger and Eggs, and a few others! Also, they make their American Cheese in house. YUM. I've been here twice - once for a more healthier outing... the other for a cheat day. So they can accommodate. The healthy outing was for lunch and I had an amazing Kale Salad with a chicken breast! So flavorful. Not bland at all. Fresh. And they offer half portions if you'd like! Th most recent time was for dinner! Three of us had their signature burger while our other friend had the fried chicken burger and all was AMAZING. We each got the different style of fries that they offer and we loved it all. We did all think that their original was our favorite! But feel free to try them all like we did! We ended with trying the huckleberry blackberry cobbler and apple donut holes. THE DONUT HOLES DUDE. Hot, cinnamon sugary, balls of wonder. The dipping sauce is spectacular. I would honestly be down to come here just for dessert if I'm getting that. Damn. They are not messing around. It was funny because when we went to order dessert, the waiter assumed we were getting the donut holes... we WERE just going to do the cobbler but since he outright said, "We gettin' the donut holes?" Obviously we had to try it. No regrets. One note I have to throw in was we tried a Peanut Butter Latte Stout from Belching Beaver (a San Diego Brewery - represent!!). Mind blown. It's actually a light beer in color. The flavor is absolutely perfect. If you like PB... this is your hook up. They can also do it as a float... thinking outside the glass with two birds with one stone! The latte side is subtle but just perfect. Overall, the service was great, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere in an old house was just fantastic. You gotta try this place! read more

We finally made it to the Republic. It's my daughter's go-to place. Must say, we had a great evening sitting on the patio with cocktails. Food was outrageously good. Hubs and I split the Monte Christo, the northwest salad and the table shared the garlic cheese fries. Oh my, food was so very good. And despite a slight mishap, service was outstanding. Looking forward to returning. read more

We were in Post Falls and needed a meal. Decided the pictures looked great. Didn't know we were in for such a fantastic experience!! The waitress was kind and super helpful. The food was fantastic and the decor is exactly what it should be. That's for existing. Oh ya, and we ordered a mixed drink and it was stellar!! read more

The service and atmosphere was very nice. I was able to enjoy and take my time. Food came out hot and as ordered. The server and bartender were very friendly. Cooks did a great job and sounded like they enjoyed the job. Price was fair for the menu. The other guest were also enjoying their meals and time as well. Will definitely be back! read more

Service was a bit slow tonight, not sure why. Got our order wrong, took the burger we touched back and threw it in the garbage...it would be better if they have it to someone else at our table. Had to constantly ask for water and soda refills. We love this restaurant but tonight threw us off. read more

Three crispy cauliflower tacos were the perfect choice! Crunchy, sweet, totally filling and healthy! Compliments to the chef!! I had the crispy chicken sandwich Korean style it was very good little too many jalapeños. looking forward to trying the blue burger next time. Nice outdoor dining. in the house is really old and cool read more

It's Saturday evening and the website said they are open until 9 pm. We arrived at 8:04 pm and the bartender told us the kitchen closed at 8 and they wouldn't serve us. I noted the time and she said they were already closed. She didn't even ask if we wanted a pint or a side. She just had the attitude that we were out of luck. Very disappointing! I clearly would not recommend the Republic! read more

I have been there a few times and the food was very good. I love it in the summer when you can eat outside. The wait is an issue but I think the food is usually worth it. It would be nice if they could seat you a bit faster and maybe offer some type of small something to snack on like peanuts or something while waiting. Just a thought. I will most likely go back this summer. The staff always seems very nice. read more

They're not for picky eaters! They have a variety of flavor combinations that you don't usually see in restaurants around here. A few of our favorites include the pastrami fried rice, crispy cauliflower tacos, korean style sandwich, and their repub fries! read more

The food here. Some of the best in the area. The cauliflower appetizer is out of this world! Fried chicken appetizer, so delicious. I want to eat here every day and try everything on the menu. Serious compliments to the chef. If you're a Post Falls local... come here!!! read more

This place was recommended to me by my family and they raved about this place. I got the jalapeño popper burger with the crispy sweet potatoes and neither of them were as advertised on their menu. The burger was supposed to be stuffed with cream cheese and the cream cheese was just plopped on top of the burger. The sweet potatoes were not crispy, they were just cubed and slathered with a sweet sauce which was definitely not advertised. The service wasn't the best our waitress came to the table twice, to get our order and to give us our food but that was it. I probably won't come back here again because the food was not like it was advertised or how my family described it when they were here, which was not that long ago. read more

Good service. Small, but expected as it sits inside a historical house. Atmosphere was well done. The food was tasty and portions were fine. We had a party of 10 and most had the fish and chips. The regular burger was done nicely, as was the stew. The Monte Cristo was probably the favorite. The kids loved the macaroni and cheese but a kids size portion /price would be a nice option. It was a large bowl and $14. Prices were about what we expected ($13 Burger, $14 Mac and Cheese, same for fish and chips) except for the mac and cheese (too high). read more

Let me start with the aesthetics... I loved it! I love old homes, vintage dishes and old architecture. It was all so right. That pretzel was to die for and totally worth the second degree burns from tearing it apart. The beer cheese - yum! The Our-B-que was sweet, tangy, pickley shreds of pork. The garlic fries had huge WHOLE cloves amongst the fries. Whole! A little much for me, but the flavor was delicious. The fried chicken sandwich, Korean style, was good. Maybe the batter was a little dark but the meat was cooked nicely. My husband loved all the spicy flavors. Adding to the list to repeat. read more

We went here a year ago and still remember the GREAT food and ambiance! Someone puts extra work into the overflowing garden!

We've been several times now. I like the appetizer menu but am just not a fan of the dinner entrees. They are very bland and lack flavor even though they are described so well on the menu. The specialty drinks are very weak, stick to your drink you know or get beer and wine. I will come back for appetizers and wine but not dinner read more

The food here is amazing! It is the single reason why I continue to visit this place. In my own personal experience; the service leaves things to be desired. I won't get specific about any details, but there is great room for improvement on almost every aspect of the minimum requirements to be a decent server. Do better guys! You have something good here. read more

We had a really great time here. Food was great, staff was friendly, the only reason I give it 4stars vs 5 it feels a little cramped inside.

There is no way to describe the food here other than "awesome." The twice fried chicken sandwich is delicious, their beer selection is extremely flavorful, and I enjoy every time I come here. Your life will be better for coming here! read more

Food was great, service was even better! I was undecided on the menu and our wonderful server, Daisy, went above and beyond and brought out a sample of one of the menu items. Awesome experience, we'll definitely be back!! read more
