Nathan Fisher
month agoA cool place with great food and a friendly atmosphere! We were there on a steady day, so I don't know how it can be during events, but it seems to be a pretty popular place, and I can definitely understand why! The food was delicious, and they have a board of specials that all looked amazing, plus the staff were all friendly. I'd gladly go again!
Brian Babcock
year agoThis is a new favorite! Excellent food! Great service! Very reasonable prices (good portion sizes)! Great selection of whiskey and scotch. Everyone at our table loved the food and drinks. Fun atmosphere and friendly servers. We will absolutely be coming back to try more!

10 months agoHad a beautiful, delicious soft pretzel out on the back patio. The atmosphere was great and there was plenty of space for my dog and me. The bartender even brought out a bucket of water for my little pup!
Lloyd Robertson
8 months agoI love this place. The atmosphere is great, and the staff are friendly. That would be enough -- but you should go for the food. It is such great pub food.
Mitch McCann
month agoGreat Irish bar. Food is excellent quality, but portion sizes vary WIDELY. This is a place to ask your server about the portion sizes. If you follow European sports, this is the bar for you. Avoid on game days if you want a relaxed conversation spot, but otherwise pretty easy to have a conversation over meal and drinks.

month agoThis is a Rustic Pub with personality. It feels like a step back in time in Ireland. I Loved the soup- brisket curry!!! YUMMIEST

6 months agoYou can tell Doyles Public House has been seasoned with pepper, whiskey and handsome working men. The ambiance was friendly and warm like a grandfather's library, in a motion picture movie. Once smoked in deep oak and cigar or tobacco, it has the weathered look without the smell. It has the football champion team scarves and cool signage, ads, and old bottles of Jameson. We ordered a soft pretzel that came with a little thing of cheese and some stoneground mustard, which was delightful. What was most to my delight about Doyles was their smooth, non-bitter, beautifully poured with yummy foam on top, Guinness. Our bar maid was awesome and delivered me all different designs. A fancy thing I had never seen before. It was quite fun. I was fresh in Tacoma and feel like this was a perfect meeting spot for my local(ish) friend and I to meet up. I'm glad she recommended it, and I certainly hope to go back.

3 months agoAmazing place. Never had a poor experience here. Breakfast is especially wonderful. The make their own whipped cream and butter and it shows. Try everything. You won't be disappointed. Truly a gem! Outside patio seating for those with dogs.
Melissa Satterwhite
5 months agoThe Cajun menu was an incredible surprise. The head chef is from Louisiana and is a magician with Cajun flavors. I ordered the Crawfish Étouffée - Crawfish smothered in a spicy tomato cream sauce with steamed rice. Wow! This is a limited time menu, so visit soon. Doyle's Public House is a great pub full of interesting people, friendly servers and great beers on tap. I can't wait to go back.
Alicia Sessler
3 months agoOur local watering hole, and our favorite place to go for any soccer game. The food is absolutely fire too. The staff is amazing and they always makes us feel at home. They throw tons of fun events for holidays and it’s a plus that they have a parking lot for their customers, most places downtown don’t have that. We love Doyle’s!
