The experience was even more fabulous with Bri as our bartender/server. She is so lively and fun to be around. I love the large selection of drinks and also the patio option.

It's hard to believe I haven't reviewed this place yet. My husband and I decided to come here for…read moretrivia nights to be help quell my depression when the kids go to their bio dad's for the weekend. Then I saw the concerts, the art nights, the craft nights. It really is a social space with a ton of personality and the service is excellent. Often, I am mean girled with small businesses. Heck, I am mean girled in big business but that sucks less because it's cheaper and more convenient. The women who work here are kind to me and my family, even when busy and overwhelmed. The vegan cod is excellent. It's become a team name with my husband. I am eating the broccoli salad right now and am literally making love to it with my mouth. Is it the sunflower seeds? The red onions? Man, it's refreshing, small and guilt free (unlike my double screwdriver). This is a positive space. They help the community, no matter what they look like coming through the door. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Wild Child was a place I had in my list to try. Compared to a lot of other places I didn't have it…read moreon my list too terribly long. 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!

Had a great time at Oly Taproom and would absolutely recommend it. They have a really solid…read moreselection of beers with a nice mix of local and regional options, making it easy to find something you'll enjoy whether you're experimenting or sticking with a favorite. I didn't try the food on this visit, but everything coming out looked good, especially the pizza. It's definitely on my list for next time because it looked like the perfect pairing with their beer selection. One of the highlights was getting to interact with one of the owners during the visit. That kind of personal connection really stands out and makes you want to continue supporting places like this run by people who clearly care about what they're building and the community around them. Overall, Oly Taproom feels like the kind of local spot worth returning to again and again. I'll definitely be back.

The 2022 Bourbon County proprietors imperial stout is the finest of any stout I've ever tasted. The vibe in here is somewhere between classic taproom and 70's cafe.

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.

We were in Olympia for a visit to The Evergreen State College and since we were in town, a stop at…read moreState & Central was mandatory. We've eaten here several times over the years, this was the first time we eat dinner here. Fam. Let me tell you, the very reasonable lunch size portions? They're significantly bigger on the dinner menu. Almost disturbingly so Being able to get a selection of interesting regional beers is always a draw, tonight was no exception. And the pretty good lunch menu is expanded for the dinner hour - as well as the portion sizes being expanded. I ordered the fish and chips, my partner ordered the bar steak (which was New York strip), and her daughter ordered the salmon burger with fries. Because it was a special, we also got a giant order of poutine. Despite being in almost at closing, the service was absolutely spectacular. We very nearly had the place to ourselves, so the overall vibe was very homey and welcoming. As noted, the portions were enormous. I opted to finish my fish at the expense of the chips. My partner wound up with a significant take home portion as did her daughter. Couldn't possibly have been happier about our decision to stop in. Since we seem to have a new Greener in the family, I'm sure that we will be in Olympia significantly more frequently. And frankly, I am pretty happy about that, just based on being able to stop in here on the regular again.

Besides having a scrumptious menu, the server at lunch today, Cayla, was amazing. She was…read moreattentive, professional and friendly! I had a turkey, bacon, cheese sandwich and fries.

I have been to this location twice now and both experiences were awesome. The first time here Steve and I split a stout which totally hit the spot. The second visit was just as spot hitting when we got the Rongo New Zealand Pilsner. Flavor features with this beer are crisp and perhaps a hint of orange. I am very excited to see New Zealand Pilsners becoming more common as the first time I had one I was totally impressed and it's great to see this beer type steadily getting more popularity. This is another great tenant to the Tumwater Craft District Market. You can easily spend an afternoon grazing off of the good food and drinks at this location and Mount Olympus really adds more of the fun to that.
