It's a tavern. It's an inn. It's old. Like 1898 as one of the oldest bars in the state. All good things for a local drinking hole. There's nothing refined about it and walls are filled with...stuff. Everyone looks like they just came back from camping. But the vibe is neighborly friendly. Regulars that come everyday, sometimes twice a day. It is the most pup friendly bar in the county with fur friends cozing up to anyone for a free scratch. Be nice to the servers; rough but sweet on the regulars. read more

The Old Inn Tavern - Storefront. - Bars Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

I do recommend this place but I also love experiences of all ranges and the time we went here, it was quite a great one. We were in a large group and as soon as we launched through the door, we were met with curious eyes! The locals had set up in what I assume their regular spots and thus, wondered what this new crew was doing here. In no time, those curious became very welcoming! However, as we enjoyed some libations and a bit of pool... we were the ones joining the locals with eyes filled with awe and curiosity! A very young wedding party showed up and took the bar over but in a very cordial way. Many locals stayed but we left, given the gift of fun for the wedding crew! read more

Truly the best dog bar around! They have a dog gate right when you walk in and dogs can go behind the bar and anywhere. They also have an outdoor area with seating and a fire pit. Everyone who goes there loves dogs and it has such a great atmosphere. Maisey is AWESOME!! So friendly and great service! They don't serve food but Pilchuck is around the corner or you can door dash food in. They have chips for purchase and complimentary popcorn and nuts Beer is cold. I wish they would allow sound to be on for non Washington teams but that's my only negative and there's way too many positives!! read more

We use to really enjoy coming here. We were there a month ago. Stephanie was our server. My table ordered another round. There was 4 of us . She brought 3 drinks. This happened three times. Meanwhile she was sitting at a customers table hanging out. About a month later we went to the bar again. We were then rudely greeted by Heather on the curb and asked not to come in. Also Heather would get angry at me when I didn't bring my drink cup back (greyhound) . She didn't want to dirty another glass. Prices great!! Not good enough for that. read more

Wow what a great find. Super chill and unpretentious, down to earth kind and so professional and attentive. Just moved to Snohomish and this will for sure be our place. Thank you for a great evening, read more

Fun place to go to for late night drinks. Could smoke out back, they had pool tables and jukebox. Great atmosphere.

My girlfriend and I met up at the Old Inn for our monthly meet. Free street parking can be found. Discover is an accepted form of payment. Old Inn does not have a kitchen; however, Brava's pizza by the slice can be purchased. Outdoor food is also welcome. Old Inn does not have any surrounding restaurant menus on hand to help the local businesses which is a shame. Entertainment purposes one will find: several mounted TVs, pull tabs, pool tables, and darts. Old Inn is dog friendly and dogs are allowed off-leash while on the premises. During our visit, we slurped on a couple pints of Bodhi and Manny's. We ordered a 10" Mikey pizza from https://www.bravaspizza.com/ for $16.99. Staff was friendly and efficient. Overall, Old Inn is a good spot to drop into to grab an ice-cold beer without high expectations. read more

This hidden gem of a bar is the perfect Snohomish secret. Everyone there was so friendly and didn't mind our loud valentines darts. They're also pet friendly so we got a lot of adorable visitors while we were there! Will dry be going back. read more

The bartenders and the owner is someone you would definitely want to meet, they are the nicest people you could imagine!

Met up with some friends here last week for Christmas shenanigans and had a really nice time. It's been awhile since I hung out in a true dive bar, and I'd forgotten how much I love them! We got there early to snag the cozy couch nook in the back, and enjoyed incredibly affordable beers and cocktails while shooting some pool and listening to the jukebox belting out faves from the 70s, 80s, and 90s. What put this place over the top for me, though, was how dog-friendly they are. You can basically have your dog off-leash inside the bar (if you're comfortable with that). There's even a doggy gate to prevent any escapes out the front, and a fully fenced cocktail/dog garden in the back. Bonus for the free popcorn and allowing us to bring in our own food. (In fact, that's pretty much the only option for eating here as they do not serve food.) It got a little busy as the evening wore on - recommend getting there early if you want good seats. read more

Fun, friendly tavern with dogs! As good as it gets - with a Seahawks game on, Irish Death on tap poured into a frosty glass, and lots of laid back folk chillin. The pubs' patrons bring in potluck fare and there's popcorn and doggie biscuits. Indoors its warm and cozy. Out back there's a fire pit and smoking area. Love, love, love this bar!! read more

Part of me wants to give this place a hundred stars and part of me doesn't even want to review it because I want it to stay a magical secret. But, friends, here is my review, because a place this awesome with an owner this generous deserves to be recognized and celebrated. It's very laid back, casual, and you do you boo. It's dog friendly - and they mean it - and the drinks are cold and cheap. There are hilarious old-timey advertisements all over the walls, pool tables, and a beer garden for when the weather is nice. It's divey, homey, and I love it. I really love it. I went with a group of friends, we had a fantastic time, and then my dog got sick. The owner told me "don't worry, we're dog friendly," grabbed a mop, and no harm no foul. That has literally NEVER happened to me or anyone else I've seen at any "dog-friendly" place. Usually, they ask you to leave. Instead, the owner told me not to worry about it, and to sit back and enjoy my beer. They have all sorts of interesting beers, both on tab and in cans/bottles, and a full cocktail bar. It's BYOF, and there's a decent amount of choice in the area. The bartender was friendly, the other dogs were friendly, and the people in there were super easy to be around. It's got to be one of the better bars in the entire state that I've been to, and I would go back there in a second. read more

Air conditioning on a unseasonably hot day (or maybe this is the new norm?), cold beer, internet jukebox, friendly bartender, dog friendly, comfy chairs and stools and free popcorn and peanuts. What more do you want from an old Tavern in a small town?!? read more

The Old Inn Tavern - Pulled into the oldest tavern in Snohomish to wait on a client and beat the heat. - Bars Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

Horrible, rude service. I asked if the kitchen was still open and got, "We don't serve food. Well, we have pizza by the slice but it's not any good". Then asked for a glass of wine and got, "They're all cheap and not any good". Then sat at the bar for 20 minutes with an empty glass in front of me and finally had to go ask for my debit card back so I could leave. Ironically, the pizza and wine were not bad. read more

Perfect local tav for great beers and drinks .. attentive service, friendly folks. This is the best bar in Snohomish. Slightly off the beaten path ( not on the touristy streets) this place is on the backside of McClendons. Dog friendly. Beer garden out back. read more

The Old Inn Tavern - Bars Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

Was having a good time. Started playing music on the juke. I noticed they didn't allow rap... wow. Didn't have any problem with Metallica or post Malone but as soon as I tried to play Rick Ross or The Game that was a no go. Some discrimination going on. read more

First time in. Thought I'd try it and watch a little bit of the Mariners playoff game. Sat down in the bartender said hi. She was busy doing a couple other things I get it. Two regulars came in after me and sat down and she acknowledged them. She made their drinks and didn't even ask what I wanted. I turned around and walked out. She set the tone for the rest of the day I figured. If you guys are busy enough to where all you have to do is cater to your regulars that's fine. There's plenty of other places to go. I may give it another try in the future but not likely read more

Stumbled in, new to the general area, Bartender was nice, attentive and had a great attitude! Prices for cold beer are amazing and it's dog friendly! This is what a small town tavern is and should be! Looking forward to many more visits! read more

I love me a dive bar....ok that's meant with love but truly if you want to hang with the locals this is where you need to go! I was dropping a friend off for her birthday after we had an outing and she convinced me to stay. So glad I did! Drinks are cheap and good (I think my Vodka Soda was only $4?). People-watching is fabulous but truly it's all about the company you are with as well ;) Such a fun night! Can't believe I was a Red Tavern virgin until recently, but I'm usually passing by in the morning leaving the library with my kids ;) read more

Cold drinks, tasty snacks, great people... AND PET FRIENDLY! You couldn't ask for much more! The staff is great and you feel like your apart of a family when you come in. I highly suggest this local tavern to anyone and every one! Might I add there is FREE POOL and Dart League that is fun to be apart of. CHEERS!!! read more

The best dive bar in town! Cheapest drinks, laid back vibe, free pool, dogs and the coolest bartenders

Best bar in town. They love dogs and its nice to see familiar faces when we go. I love the dart tournaments they throw, We went for New Years and the owner passed around hats and necklaces and thanked people for coming in, which is rare. The bartenders are sweet and we love Loren. Also the drinks are at decent price, makes you want to hang around for another. Anyplace that loves dogs has my business. read more

Great Staff...cold beer! Bring in your favorite "to go" food and hang with the locals. Great dive bar.

So glad Snohomish still has a nostalgic locals tavern! Seems like the only one left Service is always A+. Please stay open!

A classic dive bar. Free pool, colorful locals, strong pours & dog friendly! Stopped by here b/c boyfriend was doing BBQ competition right down the street. So glad we did! The staff was friendly & they had some great specials ($3 craft beers on sundays). The decor was festive & there were a lot of fun little things on the walls. I wish this place was closer to home as I felt instantly welcomed and in a fun environment. Also, pretty sure there was an outside beer garden. read more

Tucked away behind McDaniels Hardware in Snohomish, this place is pretty great if you want to hit up a dive bar, and not have any spectators around to witness the act. There MIGHT be three people there , on a busy night. That may change soon, since Snohomish just eliminated their police department, whose H.Q. is (was?) located directly across the street...not so good for this bar's business,I'm sure. You may want to park at the library next door and walk over to the bar.. for the time being , anyway. Cold beer sold cheap, nice pool tables, a timeless atmosphere essentially unchanged since the 70s, (except for better TVs) ...everything you could want in an out-of-the-way dive bar, No kitchen , so just bar munchies available , although this is the kind of place where the regulars often set up an informal feeding station with somebody's favorite crockpot recipe simmering . They recently added hard liquor to the mix , for those of you who want something stiffer than beer. I personally feel compelled to drink Rainier in long necked bottles here, most of the time....to keep it "period correct" and all. Great place to drag some friends who think they've hit ALL the bars in Snohomish....because this one is easy to miss ! read more

What you see is what you get! Great atmosphere as in, divey-diveness and friendly regulars. The customer service was spot-on, drinks are good and the beer is cold. The BEST thing is they let you bring your well behaved dogs in if they are on a leash!!! I was greeted by a gorgeous golden lab! A friendly bartender, cold beer, nice regulars AND a golden lab??? 5 stars! read more

The Old Inn Tavern - A lot of open pool tables! - Bars Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

Love the old time feel of this place and it's pet friendly with a huge beer garden out back with a huge fire pit

Great old bar. But you guys needs to do something about the litter box of a restroom! Can hardly step foot in there without gagging.

They won't serve you if you're from out of state. My buddies and I felt like avoiding 1st St for the night so we moved on over here. The bartender denied us service immediately when she saw our VT licenses.... read more

Decent place, staff is very welcoming. Everybody that comes here knows everybody. Live music, free pool everyday. Decent drink prices. I will stop by again in the near future. They serve pizza, when there is pizza available. Downside no food. But there are plenty of restaurants available in the area. read more

The Bartender last Sunday just looked at me when I sat down and served 3 other customers that appeared drunk (and had been there for a while) before I was asked, "Can I help you?" read more

This is a cool little dive bar off the beaten path. We have been in a couple times to play pool and have enjoyed ourselves both times. Good atmosphere and attentive bartender. Oh, and the pool was free, maybe it was the time of day we were there, but they do have some free pool action going on, a nice plus. read more

I don't even want to give this place one star! Total inside job! Lost my husbands debit card....the bartenders who were still working called the guy the other bartender, who was no longer working, gave the debit card to and said he would be back in 5 minutes to bring it back. The bartender who gave the guy our debit card pulled up with the guy and said the card was at another bar down the street. We followed them to other bar and the bartender from the old inn handed the debit card to my husband. Either her or her friend had it the whole time and lied about the bar down the street not releasing it to them. Confusing story, but either use cash or don't go to this place! read more

I lived in Snohomish for over 20 years and drove past this place and never stopped in, I finally did last Friday night. This is a cute little red building behind the McDaniels Do it Center and next to the Snohomish Library it is a Vintage Bar that is just plain comfortable, not fancy, no stuck up people, no judging, just a place to come visit or watch the game. They have two pool tables, dart games, ping pong, pull tabs and a couple other games. There are plenty of tables to sit at or you can cozy up to the long bar and visit with the bartender while she is making your drinks, she is really a nice young lady and works her tail off making sure everyone in the place has what they need! They serve cold beer, wine and hard drinks at a fair price and (they just started serving hard liquor too which is nice since I am not a beer drinker). The bar and the restrooms were very clean which is a huge plus in my book! They serve warm popcorn for the salt factor with your beer, they don't serve other foods, but heck there are lots of places to eat in Snohomish before you come for a toddy. Stop on by and check it out, lots of parking on the streets. read more

Christina is an awesome bartender. She has her issues but has been a wonderful personality. Love the ability to bring a dog in. Dawn and delmys are also good servers. read more

Tried this place again. Dawns a great bartender. Loren an obvious regular is an ass and runs people off. He was with two employees tonight which just speaks volumes about the type of people they want here. In fact, it's Stewart's crowd because that's where Loren and the employees were off to. I wish owner would figure out that regulars are running good business out the door. You're on the trail. Go look at trails inn. Minimal issues, no asses running potential new customers off permanently and bigger business without the liqour sales. Too bad too. We love this place for the dogs but honestly, just not worth it read more
