The 24 Best Bars in Downtown Yakima Are Waiting to Be Discovered by You

The best bars in downtown Yakima are waiting to be discovered by you! Even if you've lived in Yakima for a long time, there's a possibility that you haven't been to every one of the bars on this list.

Yakima is a town of less than 97,000 people, with a population spread all the way from the East Valley parts of Terrace Heights to the outskirts of the road before you hit the tiny towns that stretch past Summitview Ave and Tieton Dr.

Find a Bar That Fits Your Vibe in the Heartbeat of Downtown Yakima

Some locals might say that downtown Yakima is "dead," but they are dead wrong in my opinion. It's hopping with life; you just have to know the right time to go. Tourists will want to go during the early evenings before the crowds start to die out after 9 p.m., but locals in the know will stay out until closing time.

We've got taverns, dive bars, swanky upscale bars, cozy nooks, gastropubs, and bars disguised as clubs to explore in the downtown Yakima perimeter.

Now that you've had a look at the top 24 bars in downtown Yakima, which one caught your fancy? My favorite ones to go to are Bill's Place, EZ Tiger, Purr, and Cowiche Canyon Kitchen.
