Absolutely love this place!! The food is amazing, it felt like a lot a love is put into the meal. The bartender does an amazing job on drinks. The staff is amazing. I love the chimichurri steak bowl, it's so tasty! It's my first time there and I'm excited to try more food on their menu. So glad they play great music too.

I cried yesterday because I couldn’t come get their house nachos. This place and the lively people that work here have single handedly quashed my need for antidepressants. Possibly the best bar in T Town. Affordable, fun, and with really great food.

I’ve been going here for a few years and it’s easily my favorite spot in Tacoma! I rarely want to go somewhere else when going out for either food or drinks.

This place is awesome.The place has a "horror" theme.The music they play is goth-adjacent.The staff is very... uh... distinct. In all the right ways.Friendly, but still matching the tone of the place.They have pool and pinball machines.It impossible to be bored there.I am systematically working through their tasty signature drinks and have yet to be disappointed.The food is Cuba-adjescent and works strangely well with the vide of the place.Even if it isn't you type of crowd, you'll enjoy this place.A must-do.

We loved the atmosphere here and it was nice to be somewhere that didn't blast only country music lmao. Food was decent sadly my partner and I have that cilantro aversion, so it made eating some of the things a little challenging but other than that it was great. Also incredibly affordable for the big portions and good food quality.

Excellent drink menu served by talented bar staffConsistently tasty menu items and specialsHorror and gothic decor all overAnd several goth/industrial nights a month make this one of my favorite places in TacomaUpdate December 2022:The Church Cantina still exceeds my expectations and now has two goth/industrial DJ nights! There's also more house cocktails added to the drink menu!Update December 2023:- random specials that are super delicious- expanded drink menu- more music and DJ performances- still covered in skeletons and monsters the way I likeParking: Parking lot is shared with other businessesKid-friendliness: Not kid friendly, 21+

This place makes my metal loving heart so happy. The people are dope and the atmosphere is appropriately witchy/goth/metal/punk. They also host some really good markets, which now that alma is closed will start being by go to.
