The Viking - Nachos w/Philly steak & Motz sticks-the best! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Spokane, Washington

I try not to be critical, but The Viking was so underwhelming and disappointing, I had to write this. Showed up around 3:30 on Saturday. Not very crowded, maybe 6-7 tables being used. Grabbed our table near the bar. Waited for about 10 minutes before anyone came to get our drink order. Waitress/bartender came over, she was nice enough so no bad comments to her. We ordered 2 beers and a White Claw. Took another 10 minutes to get them. Ordered some beef nachos since they were 15% off on Saturdays. They came out in good time, but I gotta say, very lacking in flavor. I ordered Buffalo Blue burger, wife ordered BLT, and daughter got a Chicken Caesar Salad. Again, food came out in good time so no issue there, but all 3 meals were lacking. My burger was obviously from a frozen paddy, but not too terrible. Was hoping to get something to brag about, but not so. Wife's BLT was barely toasted and pretty bland, although she got regular mayo rather than the aioli, maybe that is the secret to the BLT. Daughter said her chicken was also previously frozen because all the chicken pieces were hard. Overall, was hoping that this would be a go to place, but sadly, we will not return. The quest goes on. read more

Everything looks great on the menu I had a hard time deciding. I don't recommend the nachos though. The chips were soggy. But we had a nice time and everyone enjoyed their food. read more

We got there right when it opened. Service was fast, food was hot and our fries were perfect. They had daily specials which today was wings (monday). read more

We were looking for a place to dine after attending an event, and this popped up on our radar. Glad we went! The Odin BLT was Amazing! Loads of bacon! The French Dips went over well, and the Strawberry-Lemon Drop was tasty. read more

Great visit to the The Viking before we went to the NCAA Women's game on Monday evening. It appears there are not many sports bars close to the arena that have multiple televisions. We wanted to come early and watch the Texas and TCU game, so we arrived a few hours early. Danica was so sweet and friendly and her service was incredible. We only had beverages, but the food menu looks enticing as well. Thank You Danica and the Viking Team. read more

Came to The Viking after our adult volleyball league for food and drinks. I usually order the mozzarella sticks tossed in Buffalo sauce (you get like five but they're HUGE), however, I was feeling very drained physically and wanted some protein. Ended up going with the chicken strips tossed in their Buffalo sauce with sweet potato fries! Best choice this week. It was delicious and hit the spot. 10/10 love this place. read more

We had such a great time, great food and service ! We will be returning ! We got the pork belly bites / steak bites and the special western bbq burger. read more

Man, what a survivor this place is. In the late 80s and early 90s, this was a place to be--and be seen. Hotties and Heros, all adorned in cheap a** White Shoulders/Aspen colognes, with everyone trying to get....well, you know. It has been several renditions of a dive bar over the decades, but regardless of ownership, it has had the staying power to be a good pre-game cocktail(s) before a sporting event at the arena, or just a nice local for friends to meet. Current crew are doing great; food is hearty for carnivores; and, the patrons are a diverse blend of well-dressed/mannered middle agers. What a nice, nostalgic little trip to my past this lunch was... read more

This is such a cool place. The staff and food were on point, and we had a great time. We fully enjoyed our food and dug the vibe of the place. read more

We haven't been here for quite awhile. It's still dark inside and they still have a lot of beers. There were 3 women behind the bar having a conversation while we waited to be acknowledged. Eventually we were. I had the house Margarita ($6 for Happy Hour) and my husband had a an Ayinger draft. The Margarita was super good - better than most at other places where they're $10. Since it was Tuesday they had a list of specials. We chose the 2 Street Tacos for $5 with ground beef. They were sooo good! They have a lot of interesting food on their regular menu so we'll try something else next time. Meeting my friends here next Tuesday, though! read more

Food was bad beer was.warm. service extremely bad. Horrible experience. Used to be good. This was the second bad adventure

This was our first time to this bar It was a Seahawks Sunday game so we went for their "brunch" food and to watch the game. The food was mediocre and they were out of chicken fried steaks. The gravy was dark and did not taste fresh. The customer service was excellent and the drinks were above average. The ambiance was great, a nice "local bar" in an area that only locals would find. We recommend you try the Viking!! read more

Looking for your new favorite dive bar? Look no further! The Viking has everything you need for a fun evening watching your favorite sports team.

The Viking - Totchoros - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Spokane, Washington

I ate her several months ago and the food was good. I met friends for taco Tuesday this week and the food was almost inedible. Everything was cold. The taco shells were cold and hard. I wont be going there again. read more

The Viking qualifies as a sports bar, lots of TVs with ESPN and games on. They have two pool tables and lots of tables and some bar space for patrons . . . the interior is a bit on the dark side but comfortable for me. Tap beers are listed on a chalk board and they have a lot of 'em (see pics) . . . I had the River City Red the first time in, but I went for the Golden Handle Blonde this time (was torn between the Blonde and the Hop Valley Pale Ale and the waitress got me samples); the Pale Ale was good but that Blonde was excellent! The Fish and Chips is my order . . . pretty much everywhere (note: some of the old menu pics show Mahi Mahi F&C, that's old info. Cod F&Cs now). The Fish was wonderful, nearly best in town, so close to my other favorite that it's hard to decide. The fries were very good and I had a few tots and they were good. read more

Stellar service. Super duper hot wings if ya like that. Great beer selection. No complaints. read more

I've been here a few times, mainly for the mozzarella sticks which are huge and worth the price since they are homemade! The inside is clean and rustic, pretty dark during the day but I like it. Their beef dip sandwich is one of the best I've ever had and has no fat! Their prices seem high at first but almost anything is these days but the quality in ingredients and preparation can't be beat. Tonight I dined in and got their Wednesday burger and beer special for $13, I didn't upgrade to a side for $2 because we also got the mozzarella sticks. The burger special comes with garlic aioli, house made pickles, American cheese, and a brisket burger patty. This burger was hands down the best burger I've ever had, especially for a simple one. The bun was also excellent. The meat didn't have a weird texture like a lot of pubs do, this was seriously great quality! My boyfriend got the buffalo blue burger and said it was amazing. We will definitely continue to support this place because of the quality and taste in their food. If their quality was like most other places I wouldn't come back because they are pricier by a couple bucks so as long as they keep the quality I'm totally cool with the price! Thank you guys for outstanding service and quality you can taste! read more

I ordered the fish tacos that I think were $16.99. Two tacos and very very little fish. Each taco had 2 bites that contained a trace amount of breaded cod. Definitely not worth the $16.99 price tag. read more

My bowling team and I decided to make The Viking our regular spot to grab a drink and some dinner before league on Thursdays this season. I feel like I have had a very good portion of the menu, and every time I try something new I am blown away. The food is not your typical bar food, most everything is made in house. There is a real pride and quality you can taste. The atmosphere is you classic fun sorts bar. The staff is amazing our bar tender/ server is a guy named Jesse who seems to interact with all his customers like he has know them for years. The drinks are great I love the old fashioned. They also have 24 beers on tap. I will make sure after bowling season is over, I come get my fix of the pork belly crackins and some amazing dinner menu. Bring your friends and enjoy this hidden little gem of great food and people! read more

I like a number of places here in Spokane but wanted a sandwich at somewhere I haven't been to before. Nice find with inside and outside dining available. Tried blue cheese fries and the Philadelphia Cheese sandwich. Both were very good very friendly and fast service. read more

Wow! What a great pub! As soon as I sat at the bar, the friendly bartender was there to take my order and explain the beers. I ordered wings, chose the extra hot sauce, he advised against it, I persevered, he suggested getting the sauce on the side, I did, I'm glad I did! The wings are huge here! I got a pound of them and it was about 9 wings. Very filling, oh so hot! I needed a Caesar salad to cool off with, so I ordered the wedge salad with Caesar dressing - equally huge and great flavour! The food here is relish! And while I didn't realize it at the time, the wings are half price on Mondays, making them $9. There is also trivia on Mondays (and Thursdays?) run by an engaging and well-spoken young man, with interesting and challenging questions and prizes! It was a great evening entertainment that cost me nothing! Hats off to this pub for excellent food, a huge beer selections, free entertainment and engaging, customer service focused staff! Fantastic! I wish I lived in Spokane! read more

My wife and I both love this place. The food we have tried is delicious, especially the wings. Rotating tap selection includes cider, pale ale, water (bud & coors light), and some Imperials. The story I heard is they recently (past year or two) were rebooted by a former employee husband/wife team along with a little support at the time. We're looking forward to many more visits. read more

Came in for Thursday night weekly special burger. $7 served with a side of fries or tater tot's. The worst burger I've ever tried, McDonald's is more satisfying. I am not a picky eater, as long as there is flavor I am usually satisfied. The patty seemed like it was a flavorless, old breakfast sausage, Over-dried. Very disappointing. Just because it's a daily special it should not taste like shit. Two star rating is being nice. Beer was good. I will stick to the drinks and the pool table read more

Weird location but the inside has a great atmosphere! Good selection of beer, although the glasses were warm and I probably got the bottom of the keg because mine was pretty flat. Nachos were delicious though! Enough for a meal for two people and left overs. Servers were very nice read more

Stopped in here tonight to try out their food. I ordered their steak bites. They were fantastic. They give you a lot of flavorful steak bites. The horseradish-blue cheese dipping sauce is delicious! We also ordered there blue cheese fries. They're battered and loaded up with blue cheese sauce, blue cheese crumbles, bacon, and green onion. Very tasty. Their beer selection is great. We look forward to going back and trying other food selections. read more

The Viking Bar (https://spokaneviking.org/) not a place for Service animals. today 2 of us veterans went to enjoy beverages and food at the Viking. We both have service dogs. The bartender/manager asked me for paperwork which is againt the law as I read it WAC 247-215-06570states: (c) service animals that are controlled by an employee or individual with a disability in areas not used for food preparation and usually open for customers, such as dining and sales areas, if a health or safety hazard will not result from the presence or activities of the service animal; Our Service animals are not pets. the provide a service due to our disability. An offical complaint will be filed. and I will not support such an establishment physically or by word of mouth. They offered for the vets to sit outside in the heat with there service dogs. read more

The ONLY reason they got 4 stars, is because when it came to the bill we waited about 30 minutes for the waitress to return with our card. We had a table of 6, lots of food and appetizers, lots of beer and drinks. Great bar, waitress was very cool until it was time to pay. Great personality, etc. The food was great! The BEST nachos I have ever had. Be prepared to share them... 3 of us ate off of this plate, and there wasn't even a dent in them! Great convenient location for dinner before Spokane Chiefs game or a Spokane Arena concert! read more
