This is the best dive bar around. Karaoke most nights cheap drinks and happy time. Best bar any night of the week

Low intensity dive bar. Fun karaoke crowd. :) we didn't get food, just regular ol bar drinks.

I can't speak to the food, but the karaoke scene and overall vibe of the place and its clientele are so much fun. Baranhof is a neighborhood gem and a go-to- spot on the way back from dinner on date nights.

This is the greatest bar, though I haven't visited since the remodel. The stiffest drinks in town. I asked for a vodka soda and got a pint glass worth of well vodka with a splash of soda. Wow! Also, the regulars and the staff are salt of the earth. If you're not a snob or a hipster or a person eager to assume the worst of people, go and you won't regret it. Their karaoke night is fantastic and not crowded.

Doesn't matter if they remodeled to make it look all fluffy nice and welcoming. Baranof will always be a dirty dark dive with the stiffest drinks in town, and the hottest bartender this side of the Wenatchee Valley.

We stopped in here for a couple of drinks. It's a great dive. The place looks like it's right out of 1974. The old beer signage, sports on tv and vinyl seating. I loved it the second we walked in. It was also pretty cheap. We grabbed a pitcher and had a great time. Unfortunately we didn't get any food, but the beer tasted great and we were able to have a fun conversation. I'd come back here anytime.
