Came to The Forum for a casual daytime meeting on a weekday, so I was lucky enough to be one of the few diners in the restaurant. Service was great and very quick, too! I've always been curious about this spot with it being right along the downtown strip, so I was glad to have finally had an excuse to check them out. The vibes here are laidback and just my type. Not quite a dive bar, but also not stuffy and upscale. A fine neutral. Loved the aesthetic with all the wood and low lighting too! Came here during lunchtime and their menu has a lot of tasty sounding options. I ended up going with a Club sandwich sans tomato with a side salad. When the food came out I was shocked - the sandwich is a hefty serving and cut in half, and I was only able to finish one half! The side salad... That thing was an ENTREE size! Portions here go crazy. The sandwich was delicious. Lightly toasted bread but not so much that it was cutting up my mouth. All ingredients tasted fresh. The side salad was also great! Overall a perfect sunny day lunch. Would definitely come back to explore more of the menu! read more

We stopped in here because the beef bisque had good reviews and i just had jaw surgery and could only eat soup. It was so good. I was jealous of my wife's burger which looked super juicy. Our server was a super nice guy and was on top of it. I also won bingo ‍ read more

Came out here w friends for my birthday; on a weekday afternoon, the place was nearly empty, which made it more personal. Loved the decor and dim lighting, we were inside at first but w the a/c on, decided to take it to their outside seating area, which was a fun vibe. Our waiter and bartender was so great and offered great feedback as we were sharing appetizers. The bruschetta was delicious and I typically don't like pretzels but the softness and consistency of the pretzel is everything. We had old fashioned then a spritz! read more

Great food and drinks, nice servers, and overall good vibes. We went on a Wednesday evening and really enjoyed the live music by The Pars band. read more

The Forum - Ponderosa and Cuban with tots - Pubs Near Me - Puyallup, Washington

Been a few times now. Always enjoy the food and the staff. Have only had burgers and fries so far, but each style has been really tasty. High quality ingredients. Happy tummy. Lots of yummy. read more

I met up for lunch with a friend at the Forum. We shared fried pickles which comes with a side of sauce, almost like a "Mac sauce" flavor. Really good! My friend ordered a Mac and cheese dish with meat added, while I had a soup and salad combo. The garden salad was a great size, I was surprised! A lot of other places give you a "side salad" portion, but this is a full sized salad. The French onion soup was perfect, my favorite. The staff were friendly and cool to let us eat and chat for a few hours. It's a cool place in downtown Puyallup for a bite to eat at a rustic style restaurant with popping music and great food! read more

This a cool little spot. It's getting more and more crowded as people find out how nice it is here. They have a decent menu bar in mind. This is bar food. Staff is good, but the weights for the drinks can be lengthy. It's a cool little spot. read more

I drive for Uber. I picked up an order last night. First I want to say that the kitchen manager was great! Courteous, very nice, and updated me on the status of the order constantly (it took about 20 minutes to get the order; busy Saturday night. HOWEVER... I will never be a patron of the establishment because of the cute little bartender. I sat at the bar to wait for the order, right in the center of the bar, right in front of her. I kept trying to make eye contact with her, was going to order a pop, but NEVER ONCE EVEN LOOKED AT ME. She was super polite to her customers, but simply refused to acknowledge I was sitting there iRIGHT in front of her. Little did she know I'm the best tipper she will probably ever encounter -used to work at a bar myself. When I walked in, even though it's a small place with a small kitchen, I thought what a great place it would be to come with my friends. But after sitting right in front of the bartender for at least 20 minutes and being completely ignored, we will never go there. Why was she SO rude? Because I was picking up an Uber order? Ridiculous. And again, VERY RUDE. This incident took place the night of sept 26th, 2026. read more

I know my boyfriend's aunt loves this place so I wanted to check out this spot as she has great taste in food. We stopped by on Sunday as their happy hour looks great and this is one of very few places that serve a Jucy Lucy. I got the beef onion bisque while my boyfriend got the Jucy Lucy. The soup was super salty, I could barely eat it as it just felt like I was slurping salt. There was also barely any meat in there and just lots of onion. The bruschetta that came with it was nice. The Jucy Lucy was the star though and it was delicious. The fries that came with it as well as their fry sauce was absolutely amazing. The service was okay. It seemed not too busy and it seemed like there was a table ahead of us in terms of receiving their food but it took some time. I did ask the waitress for some lemons for my water but she forgot and they checked on us twice. She did drop off a huge bottle of water when she noticed my boyfriend's glass was half empty. The decor here felt like a modern-rustic feel and they had some great music playing. The lighting is an intimate dim where you can see everyone and where you are going. The bathrooms here was clean and organized. I wouldn't mind coming back to try other items and drinks but was disappointed with my soup. read more

Went on a Sunday and we really liked the low key vibe, service was good, drinks are strong, huge salad portions and Juicy Lucy was a hit. I'd not order the tomato soup again, it's definitely made in house, but tasted more like a sauce than a soup. The toasted cheese was good. Large portions at fair prices. read more

Decided to go check out this place with my husband and didn't realize it's Friday night! It was so busy when we walked in. Glad we found a spot upstairs. The server was really kind and sweet! Got the good vibe from him!!! The floor a bit sticky but it makes sense since it's a bar and it's Friday night. We got Mac and cheese balls, and WOW They are HUGE! I feel like that can be a meal itself and it's way too much for 2 people if you having other food! We got Mai Tai and Raspberry Lemoncello Spritz! They tasted AMAZING! It didn't not taste strong but we felt a bit buzz after we done with the drinks! My Cuban sandwich tasted so good, the bread toasted perfectly, and seasoned so well. There was another server brought us the food and she gave us so many different dipping sauce to try!! My husband loved the burger, it has a kick from the jalapeño. If you like some spice, definitely try that burger. Overall, I had a good experience and we were vibing with the 2000s throwback music! read more

Great happy hour menu- vibe is nice and dim & music is great! Service has always been great as well.

Delicious! I love trying new places when I'm out of town and this place was so cute and had great food! Huge portions, I would share if I came again. The taco salad was amazing!!! The bruschetta was also very good! read more

1st time and most likely last. Service, ambience, Quality of food all great. Very Overpriced for bar food. I ordered the buffalo wings. It was the saddest plate of buffalo wings I'd seen. About 10 "kid sized" wings for $16! Yes, it's an appetizer. But I can list 20 restaurants that offer a plate of Buffalo wings for an app for about the same or less that are beefier and will at least leave you half full. Then to top it off the "lava cake", again "kid sized", was just sad for $9! Again when I think lava cake, I think Red Robin or BJs..... read more

My wife and I ate there last week, the Tachos were not very good, the sour cream made the tots cold and there was not much flavor. Maybe have the sour cream as a side. My club sandwich was 7/10 and my wife thought her Forum Burger was 7/10. read more

Food was great. Place was clean. Service was helpful. Servers were attentive. House infused liquor was very tasty. Jalapeño tequila was just spicy enough. read more

We really enjoyed the atmosphere but the food was not the best. The fried pickles I could not even eat, the amount of salt on them was brutal. Our Caesar salad had VERY dry chicken and they did not bring out silverware for both of us. We attempted to ask but had to get up and approach the waitors and three were in the back on their phones. They did have great drinks and you could tell the bartender was working her butt off! I think we may try it again for a second review. read more

The Forum - Old fashion - Pubs Near Me - Puyallup, Washington

Decided to give this place a try while we were in the area. Service was great, ambiance was great, but the food was a bit disappointing for me. I ordered the fish tacos and the tacos were literally just a fried piece of fish and flimsy small pieces of shredded cheese. Tater tots on the side were good, crispy edges and soft interior. My husband liked his burger though. He also ordered one of their spring drinks and liked it. Overall, might come back and just try something else or just come in for drinks. read more

After a morning of antiquing my friend and I decided to stop by The Forum. Perfect location in downtown Puyallup. We sat ourselves and waited just a few minutes before the waiter came to give us menus and get our drinks. Menu is full of yummy offerings so it was hard to choose. I ultimately decided upon Shrimp Po Boy and my friend chose the Bruschetta. We didn't wait long to receive our food even though the place was busy. The Shrimp Po Boy was very good with a nice soft baguette bread and the house remoulade was on point! Nice portion of shrimp too! My friend said the Bruschetta hit the spot. Plan on coming back soon. The only caveat for some is that there are no children allowed since it's a bar. Cheers and well wishes! read more

I've been wanting to try this place for awhile and it did not disappoint! I was most interested in trying the infused alcohol. The flight was amazing! We got the Pineapple Vanilla Infused Vodka, Blackberry Bourbon, Blueberry Infused Gin & Jalapeño Tequila. They were amazing! Perfect notes of fruit or spice. The Gin was herbal forward. My favorite was the Pineapple. Fruity, sweet, just delicious! read more

This spot had me dreaming about their fried pickles they next day! If you are a pickle lover, you must order their fried pickles. For cocktails, I ordered their infused tequilas: it was a jalapeño pineapple margarita. The first one wasn't as spicy as I would have liked, so I ordered it again but with added jalapeños and it was delicious! We just came here for cocktails but I'd love to come back and try their other drinks! Server was super friendly and attentive and their bathrooms are clean! read more

Food was so good -- the French dip was delicious. Our waiter was very nice and quickly served our drinks and dinner .

Food was good. My roommate said it was one of the best burgers ever. The root beer float was delicious. Service was pretty good, a couple minor delays in getting the check. But it was all worked out read more

Food was good and it's a trendy pub with good drinks. A little loud but as long as you are looking for that vibe it's a cool place to grab a bite and a cocktail. read more

Stopped in for Sunday lunch and a Bloody Mary, I had the Cuban sandwich with a side salad. It's an interesting version of a Cuban and it tasted pretty good but I'm not sure I'm a fan of this version. My friend had one of the burgers and liked it a lot. My Bloody Mary was overpowering, it had way too much Worcestershire sauce in it. I've eaten here before and both the good and drinks were better. The servers were nice and it's a nice space for some casual dining. read more

Drinks are a little weak. Service is always good. Nice local spot. Love the pretzels!

Yesterday we had the pleasure of meeting Allyson at the Forum in Puyallup. The food selection is awesome, it was hard to make a choice. Allyson is very informative and made great suggestions. We loved all of our food. Beware..large portions! read more

We stopped in here yesterday to grab a drink and something quick to eat. Oh my gosh! We did not know how big the portions were! Our server was super friendly. Everything tasted good, but I would probably opt for a half salad next time. Hahaha. It was just very heavy and I try and eat healthy. I actually ordered the bruschetta thinking my partner would be sharing it with me, but he was not interested. I would get that again if I had someone to share it with. So, unfortunately a lot of it went to waste and it didn't hold up later into the evening. The environment was very laid back and fun. I'm sure we will return. read more

My girlfriend and I stopped into The Forum for a light lunch before parting ways. Free street parking can be found. Discover is an accepted form of payment. The Forum is 21+. Happy Hour is offered Mon-Thurs from 2pm-6pm then again from 9pm-close. Fri-Sat from 2pm-6pm. All day on Sunday. Indoors is modest; not ideal for large parties. The Forum offers a full bar with fun cocktails for those who imbibe in them. A few local craft beers are also on draft. During our visit, my girlfriend and I each enjoyed a pint of Ecliptic Winter IPAs for $5 (hh) each. My girlfriend ordered a Soup Bowl of Butternut Squash for $8 (hh). She loved her soup choice so much that she ordered a bowl to-go as well. I ordered the Bruschetta for $7.50 (hh). Absolutely luscious! Our server was top-notch: friendly, efficient, confident and personable. Overall, I don't get to Puyallup often; however, I will stop into The Forum again if I do find myself in the area. read more

Good food, good beer choices, service can be a little spotty. Have had good and bad there. Good overall vibe.

The food was just OK and as usual in bars like this, they give you way too much... The servers were really nice.. & bartender ladies were really nice .. The dessert was mediocre. I had cheesecake with raspberry sauce and there was barely any sauce on the cheesecake. If you're gonna get raspberry sauce on something at least put some sauce on it ... I mean literally it was just like a mere tablespoon drizzled on my piece of cheesecake, which is not what I was expecting.. I guess I was just expecting something a little better. I don't think the price that I paid for everything was worth what I got... it was just OK. read more

Nice little hole in the wall. Had an amazing time participating in their music bingo. The host Bianca was the best!!!! Will definitely be back if she is!!! read more

I wondered if this Forum was a twin to Tacoma's, and while most of it very parallel to it, it's still kind of different. Obviously the Tacoma one is housed in a wonderful vintage bar. When I Walked in, I noticed all of the tables save for one, were taken. It's very cramped seating, with some upstairs that goes unused. I would be remiss not to mention that literally everyone at every table stopped to gawk, which felt really small townie freaky like. There were a few younger faces but most everyone had white hair, which later on made sense, as it was bingo night. That's your Thursday crowd, folks. I haven't been to the Forum since 2019 but the menu seems to be the same-ish. I do miss the poutine, though. The nachos were okay, but dry and didn't have too much protein. My friends cubano looked good and she liked it, as it's the item she always gets. Service was good, and drinks were fair. A woman with a bigger dog kept walking around and eventually sat and dined with the dog, so idk maybe it's dog friendly? It wasn't wearing the proper gear to assume it was an emotional supportive animal, so I'm unsure. Overall, I prefer the Tacoma location. read more

We had a group of 8 and they were able to accommodate us upstairs with out any reservations. We only stayed for some drinks and I ordered a cheesecake which ended up having freezer burn but they were able to take that off the bill. Overall great vibes, good drinks, and good service! read more

I was fortunate enough to have found this place on the recommendation from another shoe repair. That shop could not fix my dog's carrier. Ardesson Shoe Repair did a fantastic job of repairing the sides of a netting that my dog's nails tore. I was so pleased with them. I can't say enough nice things about the kindness, the friendly staff ( I think some of them are related). It is a blessing to have small businesses that take care of their customers. They repair shoes and sell some as well. Plus fix the odd thing that no other shop can fix. read more
