Parking is a challenge but the people are nice. Inside is larger then it looks. Pool tables and dart boards. Stop by and check it out. Only a band on Friday or Saturday nights would make it better

for a late night meal, it was awesome. not many other places' kitchens are open late in Renton; this one was way better than fast food.

Since they have new owners this place is legit good. Stop by here for first time tonight with friends. Fun place with music, pool, darts, and poker for customers. Food was fabulous and lots of vibes for all of us. For sure would visit again !

The best dive bar in town! A true local watering hole where the locals hang out at and have been going there for years. A small menu is available to oder food. The burgers are very good! The owner prides themself on excellent customer service and quality drinks. Pull tabs and pool tables to darts are available. Parking can be a challenge on a busy day but don't let that stop you from going in! A makeover has been done to clean up the clutter, replace chairs and such along with new paint and a nice clean look and feeling when you drive up to the bar and go in. A/C is available on those hot days which always makes enjoying a cold beer or mixed drink even better! TV's to watch sporting events and games is nice as well.

My husband and I popped in one Friday night around 10pm for a quick drink. The atmosphere was quite and not too busy. The bartender was very attentive. Overall very nice experience.

Love the atmosphere of the place when Andi is serving/tending bar. (Shes the happy bartender with the blue hair) She really is an awesome asset to this place. She really works hard and is very helpful and friendly and always keeps busy yet is attentive to customers as well. Thanks Andi!

Stopped in last weekend randomly because we wanted a burger. We were in a hurry because my son had to go to work so we picked the closest spot. The food was shockingly delicious. I had a burger...I think it was jalepeno burger. Probably one of the best burgers I've ever had. My son got the cheese burger dip, daughter got the breakfast burrito. They both loved their food. The drinks were also spot on. The bartender was very nice and gave great service. I wish I'd gotten her name. Definitely recommend and would go back again just for that burger.

I’ve been coming to Katie J’s Bar for the last two years and I love it! The atmosphere is very relaxed and the bartenders are always very knowledgeable and friendly. And to top it off you can’t beat the prices. They have pull tabs, pool tables, and darts. Courtney is the best. She always comes up with different recipients for their “Drink of the Day”. Today is a Blue Raspberry Lemon Drop! Would definitely recommend.
