South Tacoma · Seattle, WA · 5406 S Tacoma Way, Tacoma, WA 98409

bar-club

A neighborhood dive-bar-turned-music-venue on South Tacoma Way, named for the old South Tacoma Airport that operated nearby until 1975. In 2024 the owners added an adjoining Music Hall to the original tavern, letting it book bigger touring acts alongside its usual mix of local bands, DJs, and themed rave nights, while keeping the intimate, steps-from-the-stage feel.

What ravers say

75/100

Reviewers consistently call out surprisingly strong sound and stage lighting for a small dive-bar-style room, paired with friendly, fast staff. The recurring complaint is the room getting very warm and the bar being understaffed relative to how busy it gets on big nights.
