This Stadium District restaurant changes again to focus solely on sports-bar concept

Tacoma, WALocal News

The TNT Diner article discusses the latest changes at a Tacoma restaurant located at 649 Division Ave. , which has transitioned from Poquitos Tacoma to Stadium Golf, focusing solely on a sports-bar theme. This decision comes after several unsuccessful attempts to diversify the space, including the closure of Poquitos and a previous concept known as Wally’s Wisconsin Tavern. Yes! Parade, the restaurant group behind these changes, has announced new operational hours—Wednesday to Saturday from noon to 9 p.

m. —and has discontinued Sunday service. The revamped menu, led by executive chef Kelly Wilson, now emphasizes classic sports-bar fare, such as hand-cut fries, wings, and pizzas, to attract a broader customer base. In addition to food offerings, Stadium Golf hosts private events and league nights to engage the local community further. The venue features Trackman golf simulators, providing a unique experience for patrons looking to combine dining with entertainment.

By consolidating its brand under Stadium Golf, the restaurant aims to streamline operations and enhance its appeal in the competitive Tacoma dining landscape. This strategic focus reflects the restaurant's adaptability amidst ongoing challenges since the pandemic.
