Welcome to r/Tacoma, The Subreddit of Destiny. Much like the city, this forum is a dusty old jewel of Puget Sound.

Some spend all day talking about how gritty it is, others simply think this is where trucks were invented, but Tacoma is a beautiful city filled with art, food, beer, music, nature and people. This subreddit is intended to be a reflection of such.

Welcome! You'll Like Tacoma.

Pescatarian Pho

I’ve just moved to the N. Pearl St. area, does anyone have a good recommendation for vegetarian or pescatarian pho? I used to get a fantastic one at I-5 Pho, but they have been out of business for a year because of a fire

What are your favorite restaurants in town right now?

Question is broad on purpose, looking to get out of my habit of going to MSM deli > the red hot > mama’s teriyaki > flipping out on repeat

Late night date ideas

I’m casually dating someone with an opposite schedule from mine. He gets off at 8pm and I get off around 10PM on the nights we work. Finding fun things to do that aren’t just a bar is proving tough. We’ve gone to play pinball, sing karaoke, and open mic nights but would love to find more things that are open later at night or ideas for late night activities. Thoughts, Tacoma Reddit?

Highway 5 accident 11/8

Anyone know what happened to the person who was in an accident on the 5 last night? I was going home from midland around midnight last night and there was an over turned white pickup truck. A police officer and civilian pulled a body out. They weren't moving and I was the first car stopped on the freeway. I've tried to look it up but can't find anything. I hope they're alright.

Large Browns Point photograph - photographer?

We scored this beautiful, huge photo of the Browns Point Lighthouse. Anybody have any idea who does this kind of work? Must be professional given the scale is the print

Anyone going to see The Devil Wears Prada at Temple Theater?

The band, not the movie. My friends are normies that think metal is weird. Curious if anyone here is going and interested in connecting before the show.

Preschool behavior support?

Hi, I'm a preschool teacher new to the area, and was wondering if the city/county/state had any behavior support resources for a 4 year old? Where I'm from the county had a whole thing set up where a behavior therapist would visit the home and school usually once a week (sometimes daily for one-on-one support if needed). I found the ESIT information, but it's only for kids under 3 so not really helpful.

Suggestions for affordable veterinarian care for a cat?

Good evening neighbors,

Our family cat (10 years) has a lump on his tail that is quite sensitive. Looking to find an honest/affordable vet to examine and recommend next steps. He's an otherwise healthy cat who has never required medical care, so I don't know what a vet should cost.

Anyone have a favorite vet in town?

Thanks in advance for your input. We're grateful for it.

Anyone know what was going on over by fifty six and pacific

It looked like a memorial weather bunch of bikers and at first I thought a house was on fire, but I'm guessing that was just the smoke and garbage from the biker club. Anyone know what was going on?

Any worthwhile card shops to play magic?

I recently got into Magic: the Gathering and I'd like to know if any places are beginner-friendly and willing to tolerate someone like me with a pre-made deck that only knows some of the terms. This may be a long shot too, but I really want to buy a Necron deck, but they are really hard to find.

Edit: I really appreciate everyone's recommendations. Rest assured that I will personally visit each and every one of them!! Thank you, guys, who are also willing to teach me too!

WSU Football Official Watch Party

Greetings fellow Tacoma Cougs!

The Beach Tavern at Titlow has now been added to the list of official watch party locations.

Cougs play against Utah State on Saturday the 9th and kickoff is at 7:30.

I have seen various people ask about watch parties so I thought I would pass along the info. Maybe I’ll see some of you there.

Go Cougs!

Marine bio resource’s

I am 24 year old college student studying to get my BS in Marine Biology. I just moved to Fife Wa and have little to no resources out here in the area of my studies. I am reaching out to hopefully find someone or something that could point me in the right direction to get my foot in the door.

I am looking for volunteer opportunities, possible internships, hand on experience, etc… I have no idea where to start or what even I’m most interested in doing. If you’d be so kinda and help me out a little on information I’d be greatly appreciative!

Quantum Fiber

I use Quantum Fiber internet. It seems in the middle of the night we have periodic wifi outages where I have to reset my router multiple times. It works fine all day.

Is this happening to anyone else? Between like 1 and 3am.

It's enough of a burden that I'm playing with the idea of switching over to Lightcurve.
