Hannah's Bar & Grille

This stop at Hannah's, not too far off I-5, provided the most eclectic patronage I've yet seen in there.  That's a neutral statement.  It may be Olympia, home of funky Evergreen State College, but it has been more sedate at Hannah's on past visits.

So, back to the pluses:  an incredible mushroom Swiss cheese burger with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and some type of burger sauce, heaps of big french fries, and a Coke, for under $10.  Also, the service was, as usual, very friendly and accommodating.

Great place.  If you like cold beer & good food, this is the place to go.  Patrons are fun and if there is no place to sit, you stay and stand.  Great place to watch the Procession of the Species.

Stopped in for a quick drink on a Saturday afternoon, and the place was deserted! The atmosphere was definitely not what I expected. From the outside it definitely looks like a dingy/dirty dive bar, but inside is actually still just a nice and relaxed bar. Not dingy at all. Definitely points earned for being a low-key place when you're not wanting a crowd. Bartender was courteous enough. A couple good beers on tap. Not a place I'd go for a date or to show visitors the best that Olympia has to offer, but definitely has its place in the roster.

From the other reviews and what I saw when I was in there, the food might actually be worth a try. I will also probably be back sometime for the Saturday pool tournaments.
