Reviews for Nicole's Bar in Olympia, WA
Went here for a good bite for the first time on a warm mid week evening. Went inside, and it was busy & VERY LOUD. A lot going... on with tables, & a group of 8-10 women in the middle of the restaurant were having a major cackle-fest, hooting &hollering!???? We smiled, looked around, almost left, but decided to get a drink and eat outside. Bartenders were super busy,and it was a energetic place. I was here when it was the Underground years ago. Small outside sitting area, but we ordered andenjoyed the evening sky. It's right next to the road, so the noise can be daunting at times. Got our food, very nice server, andthe salads were awesome. Good flavors, well appointed, and very tasty. Cold drinks, but you have to go in to get another as theydon't (didn't) come outside to check.. the other 4 tables were left with dishes that new patrons had to push to the side. Thiswas the smoking area we found out as well..ugh. I'll try it again.. Lively bar & place with good food. Lots of locals. Read more
Nicole?s is a solid favorite. Lovely neighborhood bar and restaurant. We love Nicole and all the staff + kitchen staff. Perfect... live music ambiance on a Friday or Saturday for dinner and drinks. Very good food. Happy dogs on the happy patio. And NeonTouch consignment shop next door is a plus! Thank you Nicole (and Michelle). We love you. ?? Read more
Stopped by for drinks and appetizers here on a not-so-busy Wednesday evening. They have an interesting line up of cocktails. We... ordered the Smooth Criminal and Way Down in Kokomo and loved both these cocktails. For finger food, we ordered their deliciousMac & Cheese, Cheese curds (loved the sauce that came with these crispy curds) & the spinach artichoke dip. They do have somebeer options but their cocktails menu looked amazing. This place is huge and they do have a small private room as well. I amsure this place is busy over the weekends. Service was great. All in all loved the vibe here and will come back. Read more

My husband and I had lunch here today and it was seriously the best French Dip I've ever eaten! The vibe here is great. Super... clean, welcoming and great service! Anthony was attentive and so friendly. We will definitely be coming here again when we arein Olympia! Read more
I liked this place. We found it on Google maps near our hotel where we stayed one night while passing through on our way to... Seattle. Expansive U-shaped bar, great for drinking, eating and watching sports on TV. Good drink pours and a decent bar-foodmenu. Service was kinda slow but they were slammed the night we were there and, it appeared, understaffed. Read more
My favorite spot in Oly for a drink with friends. Sara is an amazing waitress/ bar tender here and always gives us the best... customer service. Love the cocktail menu! Highly recommend the Into the garden cocktail & Put the lime in the coconut cocktail!The food is good and the burgers are really good. Good vibe and decent crowds most of the time. It is sometimes hard to find aspot in the weekend, it gets busy and there is live music. Highly highly recommend giving this place a visit!!! Read more
We have given this place many chances because the french dip is so good. But the service is always horrible, and the food is... progressively getting worse. 6 of us came out and only 1 got good food. My very cold fries were replaced with burnt ones and soon. Very sad. We wanted to come out and drink and eat. Will need to find a better place for food and service Read more
