Really cool place to get drinks. Lots of personality and atmosphere. Not the best location, but nice as an alternative to the other crammed places downtown.
Adorable quirky little dive bar/kareoke spot. The cave is unbeatable. Can't wait to show this to some friends.
Karaoke 7 nights a week, no bad vibes at The Jive. All are welcome. Regular spot for Tacoma locals, must-see historical landmark for Tacoma visitors.
its a dive bar that is everything you would expect from a dive bar.beer lines need to be cleaned and food is tolerable. but it is the cheapest beer and food you will find in town
Old neighborhood dive bar with live music. A must stop if you are in Tacoma.
4 stars for an awesome staff who is attentive. It would be two stars for the worst drinks I've had in Tacoma. That being said. Fantastic burger at a reasonable price. Cook mentioned that the griddle wasn't up to hear to provide the sear and was spot with what it was thinking it needed. I'll come back but only buy beers here. Stuck to what's good. I learned my lesson. Great live music. Piano music this night. Burgers might be only on Wednesdays. It's a drive bar that's cleaned up ever so slightly. By divey, I do mean it's very divey with ripped seats and parts if the ceiling slightly discolored. But there's many dollar bills on the ceiling. You get the idea. I've been many times over the years, good shows in the past.
Definetly a dirty dive bar but has its weird charm. Saw this place I think on YouTube a while back and found it on accident. So we had to stop. Definelty will be back just because it's a weird cooky bar with history in Tacoma. If your looking for a super clean nice bar, this is definitely not it. But if you love dive bars, this is a must on your list.
Went to Bob's the first night on my trip to Tacoma - ended up going each night I was in town. Fantastic spot with a diverse crowd, karaoke, pool table, and a good range of draft beers. The new owners are putting a lot of time and money into the place; looks like the outdoor area has been recently renovated and more upgrades to come. Will be back!
Weeknight karaoke is a blast here! The locals are super friendly and the music hosts are great: they really know how to sing! But there’s no pretension and everyone is encouraged to relax and enjoy. Great brews on tap, very fun vibe.
Beautiful crowd.. best kaoroke in town.. nostalgic and historic.. this is Tacomas most famous historic dive bar!
