Always have a great time here. Yeah, the service can get slow, agreed. But, the staff has been friendly to me always so no issues there. Great place to see live music. Not a bad seat in the house.Been going there for years.

It is a fun place to watch live music. It has two floors . Get there early if you want a table. I had Nachos was very large and yummy. Kind of crowded with sexy crowd for Helles Belles. It was memorable and fun .

You know what? Sure, you feel like youre drinking in a high school gymnasium, but the other bars on 6th are either: closed, doing the whole thing wrong, or are staffed with less than optimum employees (probably due to the pressure of the pandemic, but whatever).Ive been warmly welcomed at jazzbones each, and every time Ive gone there during these trying times. Ive never been treated poorly there previously either, though my visits are rare.Give em a try...

Fun little bar! We ended up here for my birthday. Low key spot with decent hip hop music and song requests actually get played. People were on the dance floor all night but it wasnt overcrowded. $3 jello shots. What more can you ask for?

Extremely fun place! No crazy dress code. The bucket drink is definitely my recommendation!!! Smooth and great price. Dj’s where playing old school and new school hip hop. Made me reminisce on every track they played. Two floors with tons of space so you don’t feel all packed w/people bumping in to each other all sweaty. Great place. Definitely recommend if ur in the nice part of Tacoma.

Great food and atmosphere. The drinks were affordable as well as the food and worth the price.I bought three food items and three drinks for a total of $46 and with even with a $10 tip I didnt break $60

This place is super fun for some of their themed events. The staff is on point. Management is always respectful and friendly. Recently I went there and they were having a day event for shopping. Jazzbones always has something going on for any genre of music or party. There are 2 floors with full bars. Theres a nice size stage where there are live bands or a DJ playing. I strongly suggest to follow them on Facebook or sign up for emails to stay in the know. Oh! And the food is delicious! When we go we have never set food back or drinks. One more thing, if youre on a budget, no worries. They have free parties too. Thats right NO COVER to enter! If youre visiting the Tacoma/Seattle area definitely add this place as a place to go.

Had a blast. Bartender made me a drink after I told her my likes, and she smashed it out of the park! Had 3 bands in tonight which I loved, and it looks like the regularly have events there.

Assorted crowd that makes you feel you can be any sort or type of person to be there. Great music, tasty bucket drink was delicious and the show @thecoleabz was amazing. Definitely will be going back again.

Love the seating. Very easy to see band. Food is good & prices are average. Saw Randy Oxford Blues Band is Amazing. Dance floor is fairly small but, everyone enjoys dancing right in front of the live band, and you still can easily see the whole band. Great atmosphere and pleasant crowd. Arrive early to find a parking.

Went to see Hells Belles! Wow! Show up early if you want a table. There is a VIP section that I will look into getting next time. It is a great energy in the room because it isnt huge. There is an upstairs section that has two rows of seats almost like a theater wit a view right to the stage and its own bar. Downstairs there are 8 tall tables and two short tables and a open area to the stage. The food seems pretty good, probably better hot, ours was cold but the server, whom was doing a great job being the ONLY server, was very busy and doing her best!My only suggestion is have more servers.WILL BE BACK!!!

It was dark and lifeless in this bar unfortunately. They had a fantastic band that came a long ways to perform for Tacoma. I am not sure why they didnt heavily advertise the band that night. Total missed opportunity.The venue is was just lacking enthusiasm and respect for the fantastic band they had performing.

Review №35

Appreciated the diversity of the crowd. All walks of life, dress up or dress down do what your comfortable with. First time in the place, and the flyer for upcoming entertainment looked to be all over the spectrum. Rap, jazz, comedy, rock, dj. I didnt eat but food looked decent. Drinks were cheap. Main floor was crowded we arrived after the show had started but discovered an upstairs area with another bar upstairs. (Possibly used for VIP for some events). If open, a good place to go if you would enjoy getting out of the hype. Good views of dance floor and stage up there. Liked the funky vibe of art murials painted on the walls .

Review №36

I absolutely love the jello shots I love. The music had people dancing but one issue we put in a request for a song because all they were playing with rap we love listening to all types of music we traveled very far to try this place and would love to have been able to listen to more than one song that was Mexican music when I put my request for a Mexican song they ignored it and put other songs on that people requested I kind of felt discriminated against and my three other friends wish they would have Incorporated more mixed-race music so people wouldnt feel left out

The whole vibe seems labored.Needs some new life for 6th Ave.Maybe some new groups that arent in the PNW all the time. The area and club was dead on a Saturday night.

Review №43

The venue is a lot of fun. Weve attended a number of reggae concerts and the atmosphere is always on point. The food is good. The bartenders get you taken care of. I like the two levels. Theres a dance floor and bar on the first floor and then a bar and viewing/seating on the second floor. Weve always had a great time.

Review №44

Not my scene.. with a name jazzbobes I didnt expect heavy metal.overall lack of ambiance and smallness. But the doorman was kind and reasonable. Also dislike the giant stamp for entry that is hard to wash off. Its the last thing I want my patients seeing when I return to work.

It is a pretty good bar. The staffs service was polite and fast. They have a good size dance floor. The DJ the night I went was pretty good plays alot of hiphop which is pretty typical. The bar has a very friendly atmosphere. I did not eat any of their food so I dont have any applicable info on food quality.

If you are looking for a good time in the Tacoma area then Jazzbones is the place to go! Such a great atmosphere and all the employees I have interacted with are very respectful and overall very nice. I haven’t had one bad experience at Jazzbones, it’s always such a great time.

Review №69

We had a great time here. It was nice that there was two floors with separate bars. When up on the top floor I kind of felt like VIP. The only issue was the drinks were a bit expensive at about $14 each and they do not sell beer by the pitcher but I guess that may be typical for a club.

Review №71

On New Year of 2019. The DJ was TRASH! He was not diverse in his music selection and I think other noticed that and kept leaving. He played dull music that people could not try get down to. It was lame. He played music that was too old and kept bouncing all over the place. I HATED it. Loved the place before this experience. Now I realize it is a hit or miss kinda place. Drink were good though

Review №76

Heavy pours. Definitely a plus. Fast if you go to the bar to buy. An hour and ten minutes to get food. Some servers say its because everything is cooked from scratch (ha). Just dont go theth to eat, however my starter was delicious once I finally got it!! That review below...I believe it. I dont think Id ever spend that much money for a booth there. Overall furniture is...fair at best. Like youre in a garage.

This place is f***** up. Purchased a booth for 10 people for $400 that included a house champagne and $100 worth of food. Tried ordering a grey goose bottle service for $250. The menu that Rachel emailed stated that the bottle service included 18% gratuity. During the Sammy J event, Joe, the so called manager said 18% gratuity meant charging for it. I told him that is not right. Eventually he said sorry that is wrong and that happens and he cant honor it. He told me he wont listen to me anymore. I eventually told the waitress II wanted to speak with Rachel. A representative for Rachel showed up to hear me out but didnt really. I explained to her and the security guards the situation and they kicked me out for stating the facts. What type of establishment does that.
