Welcome to the website of Tacoma's Home away from Home! From it's very beginning, the Swiss Tavern has served Tacoma some of the finest pub food this side of the Atlantic, plus the tastiest brews to wash it down, and SINCE 1993, we've remained Tacoma's favorite gathering spot for music, dancing, parties, dining and of course, who can forget the BEER? With a selection of draught and bottled beers and other adult drinkables nearing 70 or more, the Swiss follows that age-old adage, "Variety is the Spice of Life."
