It's a place of the ages. If you want a good buzz and find out what's going on with the neighbors that don't talk with you, this is the place. From drinks to food, I'd recommend this Orting pit stop!!! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 View all feedback.

What Joshua dislikes about The Spar Pole:
I recently visited this restaurant for the first time, and I have to say it has a nice atmosphere with plenty of TVs. We ended up ordering around $400 worth of drinks while playing darts and pool, and the service was decent. However, things took a turn at the end of our visit when the waitress came out into the street and yelled at us, telling us never to come back because we left her a $16 tip. It's important to not...

I recently visited this restaurant for the first time, and I have to say it has a nice atmosphere with plenty of TVs. We ended up ordering around $400 worth of drinks while playing darts and pool, and the service was decent. However, things took a turn at the end of our visit when the waitress came out into the street and yelled at us, telling us never to come back because we left her a $16 tip. It's important to note that we had to go to the bar to get our own drinks and return our empty bottles. The waitress only brought out the wings and fries once. It seems strange that they would prefer to lose the $500 we spent rather than appreciate our patronage.

I found the food options to be quite limited when I arrived, as everything was fried. Unfortunately, the greasy fare didn't sit well with my stomach. Perhaps the cooking oil needs to be changed. Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4

This is the best hidden gem bar to visit during the day in the county. The bartenders are attentive and whip up fantastic cocktails. While the food is traditional, it tends to be quite overpriced, but that's not on them. Price per person: $20–30. Food: 5/5. Service: 5/5. Atmosphere: 5/5.

This is a fantastic local bar with a welcoming atmosphere. The burgers are delicious and the service is exceptional. Expect to spend between $10 and $20 per person. Ratings: Food - 4, Service - 4, Atmosphere - 4. I highly recommend trying the Deluxe Hamburger and the Tater Tots!

The poppers were good. Price per person: $10–20. Food rating: 5/5. Service rating: 4/5. Atmosphere rating: 1/5.

Situated as a local hangout, the Spar Pole offers a lively atmosphere with ample TV screens. While patrons appreciate the great burgers and reasonable drink prices, the food quality leaves much to be desired, often being described as greasy or overpriced. Service experiences vary, with some guests enjoying attentiveness while others encountered issues, particularly regarding tipping and staff interactions. Improvements are suggested, such as upgrading furniture and enhancing the sports viewing experience. Despite its flaws, the Spar Pole remains a community staple, welcoming those seeking a laid-back vibe and the promise of potential culinary improvements.
