Tap House for Beer and Wine

Friendly staff, local residents, easy on/off to HWY 101. They often have food vendors and tap take overs

Dockside Bistro & Wine Bar - Rack of Lamb

Dockside Bistro & Wine Bar

Excellent meal, service (Cortney is great), and ambiance…read more Don't miss the Seafood Martini. Also loved their poached pear salad. The lamb entrees were delicious: rack of lamb (beautiful presentation) and lamb Bolognese. Departing, we looked at other diners plates. We considered the filet mignon and black cod dishes. Next time we'll get those. Filet is thick cut and cooked perfectly You can easily get two meals from that steak. Saw the black cod go by with a server and it looked fabulous. Great wine selection but they also have a full bar. We tried their house Manhattan and Old Fashioned and loved them.

My husband and I had a very disappointing experience for our Valentine's Day date at Dockside…read more My review was reported so this is an edited version without commentary on our subpar service. The food was delicious, an easy 5 stars, despite being served cold. My husbands ribeye was delicious and cooked exactly as he asked. The elk was AMAZING, melt in the mouth. I really wish it had been brought warm because it would've been so much better. They had roses on our table, which was very nice. The service on the other hand was incredibly disappointing. We arrived 5-10 minutes before our reservation and it was immediately evident that they were understaffed. The staffer who sat us was very kind and offered us a space heater due to the cold and being sat so close to the door. We agreed, but he did not come back with said heater. Our waitress was unprofessional (subjective experience bas been removed). We asked for the space heater because it was very cold inside, and she did bring one. Once the menus were given to us she came back 20 minutes after our reservation time to take our orders. Then we waited 90 minutes for the food to arrive. Between that time we had the wrong food brought to us on 2 separate occasions. She did the same thing with the tables near us. (Unprofessional conduct removed). She did say that a staffer had dropped out at 3 pm so they were shorthanded. But irrespective of the cause, it really soured our evening. I wanted to provide a full review of my experience but after my review was reported I will just say, this was only our experience. I've been to dockside before with much better service. But we will NEVER go again after this experience. I was looking forward to going to Dockside Bistro after not going for a few years and was so embarrassed having planned this special night. I talked it up to my husband and was very much let down.

Mark's Endless Sound Cellars is truly one of Olympia's hidden gems. From the moment you walk…read morethrough the door, you're welcomed into an atmosphere that is warm, inviting, and centered around a genuine passion for great wine. Mark is not only an exceptionally talented winemaker, but also one of the most approachable and knowledgeable people you'll meet. I honestly haven't found a wine he's crafted that I didn't enjoy. What sets him apart is his ability to share his expertise in a way that is engaging, educational, and never intimidating. Whether you're a seasoned wine enthusiast or just beginning to explore wine, Mark takes the time to explain the flavors, aromas, and winemaking process with patience, enthusiasm, and authenticity. My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed being wine club members and always look forward to the events. The sense of community, the outstanding wines, and the personal touch Mark brings to every experience keep us coming back time and again. Cheers to Mark for creating not only exceptional wines, but also for helping to contribute to Olympia's wine culture in such a meaningful way. Endless Sound Cellars is a true local treasure, and we're grateful to have it in our community! Cheers!

I want to call out the one star review by Melody P. I was at the winery when this occurred and…read morewitnessed the full incident, and I urge you to not judge this winery or its owner based on her review. To be clear, I have been coming to Endless Sound since shortly after it opened and am a wine club member. I was at the winery with friends this evening when I watched this unfold. Melody came in with a man and small child and was told to take a seat. Mark (the owner) was single-handedly managing 20-25 people while preparing for the wine and cheesecake pairing. Shortly after sitting down, Melody got up and went to the counter where she proceeded to verbally accost Mark at a high enough volume where she could be heard throughout the space. She did not allow Mark the chance to respond to her, nor did she ever try to engage with him in a less confrontational manner. After sitting, she sat and waited. She never tried to flag him down. Instead, she went straight to a verbal altercation with a raised voice, in which she made an absolute scene and embarrassed herself. She immediately ran to Yelp and left this review. Frankly, she should be ashamed. To call Mark a racist is also deeply problematic to me. As someone who has been coming to this winery since shortly after it opened, I have never once seen Mark treat anyone with something less than absolute respect and kindness. Melody's accusation has malicious intent, and frankly, maybe she was having a bad day, but Mark is a phenomenal human and welcoming to all. For those of you looking for a real opinion, this is an incredible local spot with great wines, awesome ambiance, a ton of cool events, and a wonderful and knowledgeable winemaker. Pay Mark a visit, you won't be disappointed.

4.75 stars. Northwest Beerwerks is awesome! First, they have an extensive collection of beers…read morefrom around the PNW in cans. Second, their draft list offers a variety of beers at a good price. Third, they have an awesome outdoor area. Fourth, and this is worth stressing for businesses in Oregon and Washington, they are INDOOR dog friendly! Yes, they don't have an internal kitchen and this decision is precisely why your furry friend doesn't have to die in the cold or get wet in the rain. Only suggestion I really have is it would be great to see a few more options for beer brewed outside the PNW (of course, this is NW Beerwerks so I get it). But seriously, this place is great and you and your hopefully very friendly dog should frequent it.

Such a great place to stop and enjoy beer or beer tasting!…read more They offer flights of 4 from the on tap selection which changes frequently depending on the season. There's so much seating in front, inside at the bar, inside at the nook rooms (it's a house converted to a tap room), as well are more outside seating on the side and in the back! The barstools are lovely and heavy. So sturdy and comfortable for being iron and wood. The service is always friendly and welcoming, offering suggestions and will go out of their way to try and locate a beer if you were looking for something specific (they may just have more in stock in their storage area so don't be afraid to ask if you want a beer that you don't see in the coolers for can/bottle purchase). This is just a great place to relax and enjoy! There's food trucks next door but I'm not sure what their hours are. I was there Sunday in the afternoon and the food trucks were closed. But you can bring in outside food anyway and don't have to rely on just those trucks.
