Great staff, reasonable prices and definitely a great place to go to chat it up with the locals. Not the cleanest, and I have never eaten here but if you're looking to play the jukebox, or the free pool table or just make new friends this is the place to go. Keep in mind, this is a tiny bar in a tiny Town so keep your expectations in check. read more

Spa Tree is a local granite FALLS bar. Their food is fried food, and it's not bad. Service is good to excellent. The ambience is fun especially on karaoke night. I enjoy going there. The price is a reasonable. read more

This place Rock! Great food and drinks along with great people and service! My family and friends go here all the time and we've even spent a totally rocking karaoke filled Christmas Eve there and had a blast! The burgers are delicious and the best around. I highly recommend SPAR TREE! It's a 10! read more

In town from NC for a wedding. Spouse was hangry and we needed an attitude adjustment ASAP. This is a local joint in a small town, could have been one of those "uneasy rider moments", but we were welcomed the minute we walked in. Super friendly bartender, cold beers, great burger, a famous Spar Dog, and some interesting folks--attitude adjusted. read more

A great dive bar to stop in after a day of hiking the Mountain Loop area. Free lot/street parking is available. Discover is an accepted form of payment. Must be 21+. Spar Tree offers a dart board, music, TV's, an ATM machine, pool tables (2), full bar and free WiFi. Food is standard bar food, deep-fried or burgers. My wife and I each started with a Manny's for $5 each. We shared the Alaskan Cod (2 pieces) & Chips for $9.50. The fish was panko battered and served nice and crispy. The fish wasn't greasy at all. The fries were well seasoned and firm. I dislike soggy hand-cut fries. I was pleasantry surprised to receive Broccoli Slaw in place of standard coleslaw. The only complaint that I have about Spar Tree is that I was over-charged for the fish. Menu lists the price as $9.50 and we were charged $12.50 instead. Our server promptly corrected the over-charge once I brought it to his attention. Overall, my wife and I will return in the future for refueling after playing in the area. read more

Little hole in the wall bar located in a small town with just over a population of 4,000, not to busy yet not to dead it's the perfect Friday night experience in a small town bar read more

Tried to love this place. Small town hang out. Have it a few tries. The food was tasty but the employees made us feel unwanted. We probably won't go back. read more

Love this bar! The staff are all pretty awesome! Food is really good! I love this bar!

Great service. Great bartenders. Hometown crowd. Don't come if you're looking for trouble or high class snobbery. Thursday, Friday, Saturday nights have the best bartenders. Melinda is great and the male bartender there are both great. Food is pretty good. read more

Much better than what I was expecting! I went in on weekday and everyone was very chill and the prices are reasonable. Cheers

This place was great. Food was great, (fish & chips fresh at almost midnight) bartender chick was just the right amount of cheerful for a tuesday night. My mom loved it and she doesn't usually like places where people are :) thanks! read more

This is the local dive bar with great bartenders and good food, nice covered outside seating.

Oh, Kathleen likes! Why? Pool tables galore, a jukebox that plays all my favs (GNR, Bon Jovi, Godsmack, Lincoln Park, Poison, Ozzy, Nine Inch Nails, and the list goes on), and friendly locals who invited us to join their pub crawl on a Saturday night. Lisa asked us what we wanted to drink before we sat down. Loved her for that b/c we were freaking thirsty after summiting Mount Dickerman. Food is not made in house, but Spur Tree partners with the soda and burger shop down the street, Cranky J's Soda Shop. Chef made us some super delish burgers and hand delivered them himself. I had the Goober burger with peanut butter. Oh how I love my peanut butter! And I am willing to eat it with anything and everything! The spicy fries are hands down much better than the string fries and are oh so good when you dip them in melted peanut butter. If you are on the Mountain Loop Highway and looking for a drink, tunes, and good time, then swing into Spar Tree. Why? B/c Kathleen likes! read more

Despite moving into town, my girlfriend and I made no real effort to visit this place because we figured the only bar in a small town, having no competition, probably wasn't anything to write home about. We couldn't have been more wrong. Joe is super friendly and he makes some amazing food. Completely disagree with the review that said this is standard "bar food". The first thing I said, in fact, after taking a few bites, was "This is so much better than bar food is supposed to be." This is my go-to for food in town from here on (Omega is good too, but it's friggin expensive). Haven't tried anything I didn't like, although I do wish the hot wings came in a much hotter variety. Big ups to the burgers and fries, and the fried seafood appetizers are choice as well. Oh yeah, and the pool tables are free. read more

i'm pretty sure there is no karoke cuz if there was i'd be all over it but the food was good and so was the drinks and the service as well

Spare the Spar Tree... Even with a new restaurant / bar in town Joe and his great Spar Tree staff still get my business over that other place. Outstanding burgers, fresh fries, great coconut prawns/shrimp. And great cheese sticks ... All above average. Give me more Joe!! With a beer. Never been let down here. read more

Was really great to see its back open & under new ownership!! such a great place!! Great food, good drinks and friendly staff!! new hot spot in GF to me!! read more

Spar Tree - Bars Near Me - Granite Falls, Washington

The Spar Tree Bar & Grill is a great place to eat, drink, play pool, or just hang out. The atmosphere is second to none and people are friendly country folk. The personalized dollar bills all over the walls act as mini time capsules and feelings of nostalgia overcome my being as I drink ICE COLD beer and reflect on the many crazy nights had at the Spar. The juke box has anything and everything you could want to hear. I've been going to this bar for a few years now and I can't believe how far they have come from when it first opened. The owner "Joe," keeps a very clean (Bathrooms are not like what you'd expect from a small bar in granite) and respectful environment, which is nice if you want to go on a date here, or it's your first time. I've also witnessed a number of disrespectful and unruly people being asked to leave, only after a number of attempts by bar staff to restore peace among patrons. Some of the reviews on this page are funny to read because I have witnessed some of these customers being out of line and then they are confused as to why they're being asked to leave. As far as the food goes, I don't think there's a better option in town. Try the black and blue burger if you're hungry, it's one of my favorites. If you just need a quick protein boost, the steak bites are delicious and its comes with a variety of sauces to choose from. The fish and fries are also good choices. read more

After a long day of hiking, we stopped by there, on our way out of town, and a gem of a place we found. Great service! Joey, the owner, and Sarah, the beautiful bartender, were all attentive and genuine. The bacon Burger and the Wrap were both kick-ass. Locals invited us to play pool, which we appreciated. Even though I did enjoy my experience, it's hard to give it a 5 star. Good job over all Spar Tree! Thank you. read more

Best burger in town! Joe was very pleasant, And has My favorite beer on tap! We will be back! read more

Great, friendly service. Upbeat Blues playing. Pitcher of beer and sampler platter for $30. Great for post hiking satiation with friends.

All staff have been wonderful!!! Absolutely recommend!!! Amazing food, drinks, and service is always on point!!! Always feel safe amd taken care of!!!! Thank you Spar Tree for being AMAZING!!! read more

The atmosphere is nice and is everything I would expect from a serious small town bar, from the friendly staff who take the time to get to know you to the decorated dollar bills covering nearly every inch of the walls from other appreciative patrons. Joe makes some truly awesome burgers, excellent brined fries and other options in their small kitchen. I quite often get a Black and Blue burger to go on my way home to Arlington, and I can't recommend it enough, give it a try. Another poster attributed the cooking to "Cranky J's Soda Shop," when I asked about this awhile back Joe had no idea what I was talking about, you can order shakes from the gas station just a few feet down the street but everything else is made in house. It also seems to be the local haunt for pilots and eccentric aerospace engineers if my many visits are any indication, so if you're a fellow pilot come in the afternoon and enjoy a beer, burger and conversation, or in the evening for music and pool. Dining and hangout options are quite limited in Granite Falls, luckily the Spar Tree is there and more than makes up for that. read more

Spar Tree fish n chips used to be AMAZING. Just ate here for the first time since new owner took over and the fish n chips was dismal. The fries are no longer hand cut like they used to be. The portions were small and the fish was flavorless. I won't be back. read more

Perfect end to a day summiting Mount Dickerman! Italian? No. Cafe? No. We wanted beers & burgers! We found the perfect spot at Spar Tree (I'd taken a pic of the iconic brickside sign on the way into town earlier in the day). Lisa served up some nice, cold $3 Hefeweizen's with a smile and so much personality we felt like we'd been coming there for years. Add in some friendly locals, pool tables, CD/Jukebox with enough metal and classic rock to keep the party going all night long. We were actually invited to stay all night, but I was strong and resisted. Spar Tree serves food from Cranky J's Soda Shop down the street - a killer partnership! I had the Classic Burger (dressed with a mayo/mustard-y sauce and all the fixings) and Spicy Waffle Fries. The chef came over personally from down the block to take care of us. There are so many hiking trails off of the Mountain Loop Highway that I'm sure we will be back at the Spar Tree many times this season... read more

I've been a regular customer of the Spar Tree Tavern for years and it's really improving under the new owner Chris. His staff is very friendly, the food is darn good, and Chris makes sure EVERYONE feel welcome (that was sorely missing in the past). Chris started "Weenie Wednesday" and "Taco Thursday" recently I hope he adds more daily specials. I'd also like to see some small, inexpensive appetizers because some times I feel like a snack. But when I want dinner the fish & chips are fantastic, so is the fully loaded Spar Dog. Good job Chris!!! read more

Wow!!!! Giving this place one star is generous, a group of us came in on Friday night and the bartender was a rude jerk!! I get that we aren't locals to granite falls but seriously, it's not hard just to be polite, the guy mocked us, muttered rudeness all before I had even gotten a drink, needless to say we left without finishing our drink, ps, this place smells of old spilt beer.. The place needs a good cleansing, this includes the jerk behind the bar. read more

Eh... It was alright. Not a fan of the food. Burgers were over done and way to salty. Same with the fries that had parsley or some tasteless herb glued all over them. Someone apparently wants to cook but, doesn't have enough taste bud balance to pull it out of the "Bar Food" category... And so there it remains... Nice people thou! read more

This is truly a great freindly bar. The owmer is working long hours and it shows. The bartenders are fast and personable and the place is exactly what a bar should be. Great food, cold beer, good selection on the juke. This type of establishment is what GF needs to turn it around. Tell them Zip sent you. read more

SPARTREEI is in amazingly fun place to Have a , cocktail, listen to music ,relax, or let loose!

After a full day of hiking in Mt Baker Park, I yelped bars in granite falls and the reviews for this one looked great. So we stopped off and walked in. The boys grabbed a pool table and us girls grabbed a table. There's a sign above the bar that says "order food and drinks here". Ok no problem. Before we had decided what we wanted a nice waitress stopped by and took and our order for drinks. Cool. Good music was playing. Seemed like lots of local folks were there. We got our drinks and a gentleman asked if I wanted a glass to mix my fireball and angry orchard. "Yes please" I responded. As he walked to the bar he shouted for the nice blonde one to "bring a glass to the girl. She needs to mix her drinks..." Ok. No problem. A little snarky but whatever. The nice blonde one came by again and asked how we were doing. My girlfriend ordered some food. After a few discussions about the flour wraps versus lettuce wraps etc she made her decision. Personally props to her for wanting a lettuce wrap vs a carb loaded tortilla. The blonde one came back out and said that she was told the wrap she wanted "wouldn't work" on a lettuce wrap. Ok, so a reg tortilla it is. No problem again. My fiancé and I wanted to order a burger. So he walked up to the bar to order as requested and next thing I hear is the guy yelling from the kitchen "there's a f***ing sign on your table that says 'no servers. Order at the bar'" which I thought was funny because he was at the bar... After seeing all the seahawk signage with pot leaves on it, my fiancé asked him If he indulged in 420. Not to be rude or to be nosey, but to offer to share. Granted he doesn't see the harm in asking folks, and doesn't understand why some folks get so upset about it... He's pretty liberal, just in case you couldn't tell... Next thing I hear is "you all walked here drunk!!" Really? After a whole day of hiking and driving, we are drunk? The only thing we'd had to drink was 2 jugs of water. Gods honest truth. At that point chests got inflated and words were said from both parties, and we were asked to leave. Honestly, I'm not mad that we were asked to leave, I'm upset that we were accused of being drunk from the moment we walked in. We offered to pay for our drinks and food, and were told to just "f***ing leave" Guess sitting down at a table and playing pool makes us drunkards. On the plus side, the fries are good and free... We ate them on our way home. read more

Been here many times over the last 9 years. Usually a great time. I ALWAYS recommend the cheese sticks here. Was here maybe 20 minutes today, hardly spoke to Joe, had a conversation about the history of the spar tree, and next thing I know my buddy is getting pushed out the door because he was belittling him? We really didn't talk to Joe but to order out drinks, not sure where things went south. read more

This is a cute place. Nothing intimidating about it like I initially thought. The drinks are SUPER cheap in price but HIGH in quality. I had a "Liquid Marijuana" after it was recommended to me. OMG...So yummy! I'm a fruity-drink kind of gal and this is my new fav! Plus it was $4! The food is good here too. Had the clam strips...very well cooked. Kudos to all! read more

Typical dive bar feel with what I would consider 'better than bar food' continuously poor service - we won't be giving anymore second chances! Hope management can weed out the poor employees. It's a shame, this was one our of favorite spots to grab a beer & pepper jack cheese sticks. read more

Loved this place! Had great fish and chips before heading off to hike to Monte Cristo and then enjoyed a fantastic burger after the hike. Excellent food and very friendly service by Kim. read more

As a new local to the town was looking for a place to hang out at. And I found it. I have been here twice and have eaten twice. Best bacon burger I have had in my life. I highly suggest it. Second time I had the french dip, which was really delicious. I deffinently recommend this place. However they only have burgers and sandwiches. Don't come here for a salad. read more

The Spar Tree and it's crew ROCK! This place serves the best burgers in town, great fries, wraps, wings, you name it. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu - and the customer service is great. When the owner takes the time to go around and introduce himself or just say "hi" to everyone, that is pride in ownership! They care about their customers and making sure they are happy. Highly recommend stopping in for something to eat whenever in Granite Falls. read more

The Spar Tree Bar & Grill is a must stop if you are in, or passing through Granite Falls. The owner Jo delivers some of the best customer service I have experienced in a long time. Supporting that excellent service is a great menu, with delicious burgers, wraps and my favorite, the Cajun steak bites. The kitchen is small, but the wait is worth it. Sit back and enjoy the music ! read more

Great little bar. Joe is awesom, food was top notch. Will look forward to coming back.
