Kimo’s Sports Bar and Brewpub

The food was really disappointing and the service was even worse. Jon was our server and he was really disinterested in our whole party. Kind of sad. I ordered the Thai peanut wings and they were just wings covered in peanut butter. Absolutely nothing Thai about them. Beers were flat and underwhelming. Atmosphere was blah. Go somewhere else for your money.

I like this place. Fun ambiance, good drinks, nachos and fried mushrooms were good. Will be back

This place is great. I enjoyed a beer for $ 2.50 last night and had some Thai pizza. The food is good a bit greasy at times, but overall very satisfactory for a very good price.
There is plenty of room for activities. It is a huge with two pool tables and vintage video games. You have a great view right into the viewing room. Tons of sports memorable on the walls as a ex-​NFL player owns the place.
Although it is winter as I write this review, during the warmer months there is not a better place for outside dining. You are right on the Columbia River with an unobstructed view. This place is definitely underrated and helps make the Tri-​Cities great.

Used to love this place. Noticed that the crowd has died down and came back to see why. Ordered the Amber beer and it was flat, ordered chicken strips and they were over fried and terrible… sad I have to pay for this. The smell in this place wreaks. Yeah, if I could give it half a star I would.

Was looking for a spot to watch the Seahawks Sunday morning and have breakfast.
My wife, daughter and I ordered breakfast and everything came cold. We ordered hot chocolate and sent it back twice because it was cold. Food was barely edible. Disappointed but at least the Hawks won!

Been going here since they first opened. Its a place you can take your kids and not worry people will complain that they are being loud or behaving bad. Servers and bartenders are awesome, especially Ashley! She knows our favorite drinks, meal and always is kind and sweet to our kids. The food and beer are DELISH! we go almost every week and it is one of our favorite kid friendly restaurants!

I’ve been here for breakfast and lunch. Definitely expect enthusiastic sports fans if you come here! Food has always been good, their brews are good, and you can’t beat $ 3.50 Bloody Marys on Sundays!

Good atmosphere! Bartenders are super nice! Only bad part was alllllll the fruit flies… They are some flying over us plus some crawling on the bar… :(

I’ve been going to this establishment since 2001. Used to be called rattlesnake brewery, and Kimo took over several years ago. The wait staff have all been there for years especially the bartenders. I’ve always believed that happy employees are worth quite a bit. If they’re happy, it translates over to better service for the clients as well. There is a great variety of Premium craft beer, and they are by far the most economical in town. Their food is always delectable as well, and it never fails that we are greeted with a smile when we show up. I highly recommend them for both locals and tourists in town.

Love this place, the food is awesome, I don’t drink beer but know lots of people who love what they brew here.

Amazing food! Amazing beer! It’s a bar/​resturant and BREWERY.

The service was terrible. The waitress kept forgetting to put in our drink orders and we waited over 30 mins for 2 tacos! The AC was either broken or not set at a comfortable temp. We will not be back.

Want a place with a pretty view of the Columbia River, tvs with all the games, local brewing, amazing food, and friendly awesome service? Kimo’s is it! All the beers home brewed taste great, with the Screaming Eagle, Helluva Hefe, Honey Red, and Amber my top 4! For food, you can’t go wrong but for sure have the Kimo’s Signature Burger, Classic, or spicy tacos! Happy Hour prices of 2 bucks a beer, well you can’t beat that. The staff is fun and you know you’ll have a good time.

Came in after work to watch game 3 of the nba finals. It was pretty full but was able to find a seat on the sofas. I ordered the amber ale & the waitress brought me a porter or the darkest beer they had. I asked her if she brought me the wrong beer she said no. I tasted the beer and it was awful, not what I ordered. She didn’t seem to care if I was satisfied with the drink. She didn’t offer to get me another beer at all. I paid for my drink, left a nice tip & walked out. Very poor customer service, l might go back but I hope I don’t get the same horrible waitress.

So concentrated on people drinking they let the food just suck. Got a Cobb salad 10.00 for a half salad. GREY chicken and the other was just fatty no thanks
Okay so now to the 1.00 tacos I know it’s only a buck… but it was just greasy oily and not even resembling «beef»
She was very polite and removed the salad Won’t be back so sorry And the bathrooms were terribly dirty.

I’ve really tried to like this place. It’s got one of the best decks in town to watch the sunset on a summer night. There are some major drawbacks.
The service is hit or miss. Sometimes you have a server completely awesome and sometimes you sit and wait for 30 minutes someone to take a drink order; sitting at the bar doesn’t increase the service level. If it’s a busy night or a slow night, it doesn’t seem to matter.
The pizza is less than average. There aren’t many options if you have any sort of dietary restriction. The sandwiches are OK. The appetizers are average. The nachos are acceptable. Their food doesn’t lend anything to make up for the lack of service. I really wish the food was better.
Also, the only beer they serve is their in house brewed beer. That’s fine, I guess. I can’t think of another beer brewery pub that sells anything but their beer. It’s really unfortunate that this is terrible beer. I’m a small bit of a beer snob, and this isn’t touching white bluffs or Ice Harbor. I normally would over look this, and order wine. The problem is their wine in the glass is always rancid or horribly cheap and foul. Paying $ 7.00 a glass for some 3 day old 14 hands hot to trot blend is pretty atrocious. I’ve tried all of their wines, and none of them are very good. So, I moved on to liquor. I ordered a Washington apple shot with crown royal. The server was confused and the bartender messed up the shot, and when I went directly to the bartender, he messed the drink up again. They also have a small selection of liquor. Very standard on their call liquor which sucks. I’m a loyal Stoli vodka fan and when I come here and can’t have the beer or wine because it’s gross and they don’t even have good options for liquor or cocktails.
I really want to like this place. I keep going back because I love the deck and hoping it will become miraculously better.
If the owners read this, please fix this place, I want to hang out here.

While visiting a dear friend in Richland, we decided to head to Kimo’s as my buddy had been here before to watch football.
We were quickly seated and menus placed in front of us quickly as well. I noticed that Kimo’s had a nice seating area outside as well, which overlooked the river, but on this day, it was too cold to lounge around outside.
We ordered 3 different kind of wings, the Screaming Eagle IPA and The American’s Amber. The wings were pretty tasty, especially the traditional fire. I ended up placing another order of the traditional fire for our table as it was that amazing. As for the beer, I was not impressed at all. I don’t know if I just had a bad batch, but the beer was very disappointing. I would like to go back though the next time in town for the wings and to give the beer another chance.

You know how when you accidently have too much to drink and you spill beer on yourself and the next morning you are like «whoa… I smell like old, gross beer. What happened last night?». Well, that was my first reaction when I walked into this place. It smells like old, gross beer and nasty things probably happened in there the night before. I’m going to go out on a limb and say it probably has something to do with the fact that they are a brewery with floors that are carpeted from wall to wall. Beer and carpet don’t mix, friend. That armature hour yo. I think if they pulled that carpet up… the smell factor would no longer be a factor. Now, like most smells, I got used to it after a few minutes and was able to carry on my little visit without thinking about it too much.
So, yeah, they brew beer. And no, you have probably never heard of their beers. And yeah, the beers are cheap. There is a reason for all of this… the beer ain’t so great. I didn’t spit it out or send it back, but it isn’t winning any awards or anything. A few of their beers are just other beers mixed together to make a «new» beer. Clever… I guess.
We ordered just appetizers. Typical fried, bar food type of items. Nothing special going on here. But you don’t come into a place like this looking for 5 course dinners either. The menu fits the venue.
The service was good. We had a very attentive waitress that kept our glasses full. She even attempted to accommodate my request to watch the NBA All-​Star game by switching the channels for me upon request. I say attempted because the TV seemed to break when she tried to change the channel. Investing in some better media equipment might be a good idea for this place. You are calling yourself a sports bar after all… She was able to get the game on a TV quite a ways away from our table and turned it to us so that we could see. I’ll give her props for making it happen for me the only way she could, even if it was not my idea set up.
Would I come back here? Maybe if I was with a large group and just wanting some cheap beers. Other than that, probably not. But then again, I don’t live in TC area and I know there are slim pickins’ around there. Seems like as far as sports bars go, this is one of the only few in the area. It’s not too bad, maybe you should try it for yourself and let me know what you think :-)

Best bloody Mary in town, they make them very stiff and spicy. You will never know what you will find in the Kimo’s Bloody Mary. Also on Sunday they have $ 3 Bloody Mary’s.

First time eating at Kimo’s. My husband and I split the potato skins appetizer. They were average in taste, but appearance was horrible. We could have made better looking ones at home.
For our dinner dishes he had the Italian sandwich with homemade chips and I had the chicken taco salad. His sandwich had decent flavor but was very scarce with the meat. The chips were soggy with too much oil. My salad was appealing to the eye. The shredded chicken tasted more like canned chicken. The chips that came with the salad were so so.
The service was iffy. The man who sat us was friendly and had a strange sense of humor. But our waitress was very impersonal and cold. She was efficient, everything was served in a decent amount of time, but she didn’t seem happy to be at work.
I don’t think I will go back. There are plenty of other places to eat in the Tri-​Cities that are better and cheaper.
