Reviews for The J&M Cafe And Cardroom in Seattle, WA
The sign outside boasted the oldest bar in Seattle...stopped in for a beer and a quick bite before a baseball game. Very well... priced food and drinks, probably the meatiest wings I've ever seen, and a half decent selection of beers. It was old and datedbut I'm guessing to really hammer home that oldest bar in Seattle feeling. Would definitely go back. Read more
Reviewing on just the drinks and vibes. Wasn?t there to order food. J&M is open and lively with a rich history. The bartender... that afternoon made a lovely manhattan! They also offer many choices of beer and their wine is on tap which was actually prettydecent! Lots of TVs for your viewing pleasure. Service was attentive but not aggressive, friendly and polite. You?re inpioneer square so parking can be a little rough but the prices are super decent given the area. I really enjoy J&M! Read more
Came here during their happy hour on Friday ... service was good but the food was subpar.. I ordered the chips and salsa and... got pick de gallo as their advertised "home made salsa" sorry but that's not okay salsa is meant to be dip-able ...I alsoordered the bbq bacon burger .. it came without any of the bbq sauce that it said it came with...had to wait awhile before theserver returned to ask for the bbq sauce .. burger was okay .. fries were too salted .. they have one pool table Read more
Quality American food and drinks at a good price given the location. Awesome service. Pretty great appearance and feel, too; I'd... probably give it 5 stars if it weren't borderline sports-barry. Read more
Great Seattle original. Great food, great atmosphere and great music too. This venue/cafe/bar was another very important place... for bands in the late 80s to make their mark. They throw down at the bar! If you order liquors, they gonna be strong. Read more
It's been around longer than I have! Very popular and happening... incredible food and Buffalo hot wings... friendly, happy... staff...and when I haven't showed up to watch a game...have walked into the bar to find that they have live music too! Back whenMarshawn Lynch played for the Seahawks: J&M bar did us a solid and allowed my daughter to bug, pester, and terrorize. I believeit's no kids after 9 not positive on the time. ;) J&M just gives off good vibes Read more
If you like jazz, you need to come here. If you like to hang out in a cool setting with friends, and have some good drinks (at a... good price) and good food (also at a good price), then you have to come here as well. Fridays and Saturdays are always crazynuts here, but for a good reason. They pump out drinks at the bar so quickly so you won't be waiting in line for a very longtime. Their staff is also super nice too, always walking around looking to get empty glasses and plates out of the way andasking if you want more. This is a great place to start or end your night if you venture down towards Pioneer Square. Read more
The J & M is an institution in a city lacking everyman institutions - it is worth a visit if only to soak up some of the spirits... that haunt the walls - you can feel a century of both good and questionable characters within these confines. The waitstaff isalways enjoyable and the food a cut above ?bar food?. I have been here more than hundred times. Seriously, I did the math:) . Read more
