About this place Juniper Botanical Bar

Juniper Botanical Bar is a queer-owned cocktail bar that opened in South Tacoma in late 2025, describing itself as "cozy, kitschy, and queer." Founded by owner Al McKee, it pours botanical-forward cocktails in a relaxed, plant-filled room and hosts queer club nights and community gatherings. It's family-friendly in the early evening and turns 21+ later at night, giving South Tacoma a welcoming LGBTQ+ space away from the downtown bar strip.

Absolutely a fun cute accepting place to hang out at. I loved the patio! The food and drinks were really good. Definitely more of a snacking type place and not a full meal, but very wonderful. I’ll definitely be back!

I had an amazing time at Juniper Botanical! The customer service at the bar was outstanding—everyone was friendly, welcoming, and made the experience even better. A special shoutout to the karaoke host, Zoe, who did a fantastic job keeping the energy up and making everyone feel included. The other guests there on Saturday were also incredibly fun and welcoming, which created such a great atmosphere. This was one of the best Saturday nights I've had in a long time. I'll definitely be spending more of my Saturdays at Juniper Botanical. Highly recommend checking it out if you're looking for great service, fun karaoke, and an all-around enjoyable crowd!
