DRINK(s): Drinking at odd hours

Hanging on with Ben Dews and Alfred's Bubble Room

By Jackie Fender on June 13, 2011

Ben Dews Clubhouse Grill on Sixth Avenue should be number one on your list of places to start your day bright and early with boozy goodness. Or, maybe you're looking to top off an all-night binge with an odd-hour adult beverage? Whatever the case, Ben Dew's opens at 6 a.m. and promptly begins serving alcohol alongside some of the best breakfast specials this side of the sunrise.

And let's not forget another one of Tacoma's favorite institutions, good for serving up that tasty beverage at an odd hour, Alfred's Bubble Room on Puyallup Ave. Conveniently located near the Tacoma Dome (convenient in this case meaning perfect for that pre-work beverage and close to all forms of public transportation), you can start your day with an early morning Bloody Mary with breakfast. Or skip the breakfast and go straight for the Bloody Mary - start singing sweet music before the early birds do.
