    Really wanted to love this place. But the inattentive and semi-passive FOH staff made it difficult…read more They're still a newer storefront in Oly, in time they may grow and reflect better customer service. Pros: Chill lounge/sitting area at the front corner with sofas, a low bar (accessibility friendly) and board games. Big tables to accommodate groups and various bar seating. Large brewery menu screens with large range and the food looked good. Tbh we came for brews so can't comment on food. The Wildman Beer brand was so-so. Some better than others! Cons: FOH staff interaction. Why we love pubs/breweries is because of the chill, friendly, conversational flow of FOH; their knowledge of the beers and/or cocktails, their passion for sharing it with new customers so they come back again and again ... this vibe fell short at Wildman. TL;DR Good for a basic group of people looking for a brewery experience in town with room for large groups. Not for those who are expecting an awesome brewery experience -- a la PDX, DEN, PHX, ATX or SEA.

    I was at the Wild Man Brewery in Raymond a few summers ago. At the time I liked the beer well…read moreenough. But when I saw that they opened up a location in Olympia and Steve and I were going to Olympia for a show it made perfect sense to go to this new location. Downtown where our show was is super walkable and this brewery is right there. When we went in what escaped my attention at the Raymond location was that I was particularly impressed with their own mead selection. And the mead did not disappoint in the slightest. The first mead I had was their Oak Aged Classic Mead. Such fantastic balance in body and the oak flavor was truly impressive! I got another mead from the list, the Sneaky Bastard Meer. It's called meer I believe due to the five different kinds of hops they put into it. Great floral and honey flavored highlights! Our experience here was excellent! Steve enjoyed his drink selections as well! Definitely returning for more mead enjoyment!

    Nice comfortable place with beer, but alas, no food offerings. They have a food truck outside that…read moreI assume is open at some point, but not for us when we stopped in. It has some comfortable seating around, so we ordered beers at the bar and sat outside. They had 12 (I believe) beers on tap - 10 of thier own and 2 NA ones from somewhere else. As a self proclaimed beer snob, none were really that great.

    I visited Three Magnets Brewing on a Tuesday with the PMI members of Olympia, so my visit was…read morebrief, and I had about two beers. I can't recall the specific beer I had, but I know they were out of my preferred Porter. I didn't try any food, but it seemed like they had a lot of activities, such as scheduled bingo games. It seemed very team or family-oriented. The atmosphere was chill and peaceful, depending on the time of day. Parking is street parking , which I believe is free after a certain period. There are food trucks, but they close around eight, and I think the establishment does too. Be aware that if you enter from the Franklin street, there's no direct access, so you have to go around the building, which was a bit confusing for me. Other than that, I plan to return and check them out. They have some good drink options, but Olympia is quite a distance from Spanaway, so if I visit again, I might stay at a hotel nearby and enjoy the experience. I recommend checking them out.

Very friendly! We all got our drinks and coffee promptly and they even had oat milk for my lactose free butt. I ordered their giant breakfast burrito. Friend next to me got the salmon dish which ended easily being the best tasting dish on the menu. Our other couple friends wanted to split a dish. What did they do? Split them and have them their own bowl. How nice! If you're thinking of eating here I would recommend it!

When I called to reserve a table for 11, they asked whether we'd be paying separately and acted like that size of group wouldn't be a big deal. When we got there, though, the waitress seemed stressed and a little disorganized from the moment we arrived. She asked that everyone that wanted food order at the same time so that it was "convenient for the kitchen." As we were ordering food, I told her my husband and I were on the same check. She said no one told her we wanted separate checks (she hadn't asked). Some people's checks had extra items on them. The cod tacos and sliders on the happy hour menu were decent. They put groups of ten or more in the back by the shuffleboard table. It's pretty dark and you can't really hear the music playing in the main bar, but it was fine for visiting.

    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!
