Meconi's Tacoma Pub

Most cities of any size have that one special place where the essence of the local spirit is captured and passed on to new generations. A place where out-of-town visitors upon returning home say “If you want to know that town, visit that place.” In Tacoma, Washington, that place is Meconi’s Pub & Eatery. Located right downtown in the oldest building on one of the city’s oldest blocks is a local Tacoma pub which boasts a true Tacoma atmosphere— part working class grit and part unabashed optimism for the future. Oh, and the food and drinks are pretty good, too.
