Night manager is horrible, as a manager downtown who comes in with other managers/bartenders trying to have good time but he consistently blocks us off at the door saying their not accepting new patrons on a Friday night, at 12:42pm. At this point we're sure it's personal. It's degrading to the business and hope it changes

Um, ive been out for 24 years, never kicked out of a bar before. I've been a bartender, a go-go dancer decades ago, guess things have gottenso sanitezed you can't even be buzzed. I used to kick people out for narcotics- thanks weird straight boys that made me stand in the rain for 30 minutes to get a lyft. Gentrification strikes again- another dead space.

Visited from out of town. Clique vibe. Just a basic dive bar vibe which is fun, we have great dive bars here in Seattle, but this was just kind of rough.

Security staff was aggressive in a place that should be welcoming. Choosing who gets to go in and gaslighting clients was not the way to go.

They’re a little aggressive at the fore here. Not the best vibes for somewhere people should be seeking out for a fun evening.

Always go to play pool and they have THE WORST cue sticks I've ever seen! Either get rid of your pool tables or simply replace the tips of the cue sticks!! There's no excuse. It's always been like that. Y'all just look lazy.

Very good drink & had fun at the pool tables. Two tables & 2 dollars a play/ 5 for 3 games , cheap drinks & good drinks for your buck!! if anything people/security could be a little better. No complete pat down or bag check. Lucky I didn't have my CCW on me but they didn't check anything. What server sais 'no tip no request'. That seems a little redundant to me to be begging for tips because you're havint a slow night. Had a phone stolen & nothing was done when it was stolen from my jacket on the floor. Security needs to be more strict with who they let in besides checking ID.

Are You kidding me? This place makes more than enough money to have decent cue sticks and hand chalk for Pool players. You have to pay 2 Bucks for one game, surrender your id AND leave a deposit to play a game, and this is the $#!t you get? Also, seriously? You guys can't fix the sink in the men's room so it's not constantly wasting water? Lastly, the bar is overdue for some deep cleaning.

Now that my clubbing days are mostly behind me, I find that the Depot is more my speed. While it can still get a little crowded, mostly during the hours of 10pm - 12am it dies down fairly quickly. We've been coming for the past few weekends just to play pool and haven't had any issues with long waits for one of their 2 tables to open up. Drinks are on par price and pour wise with other bars/club in the area. They do have an outside patio which is nice as well as an outside bar that is less hectic than the main bar inside, especially during the busy hours. Bathrooms are hit or miss. Mostly a miss though unfortunately. They are often disgusting with clogged toilets, toilet paper everywhere, urine on the floors and seat and I'm pretty sure all the white specs on the floor is booger sugar, if ya know what I mean. They do take cards now, so no need to worry about carrying cash only. Security at the door was also patting down female which I've never encountered but all good. And every time we've been there has never been a cover. Overall, other than the bathrooms we always enjoy our time here and continue to come back.

One of the best happy hours! I want to say it's everyday and it ends at 8pm. The ac is on in the front but obviously won't be on the "patio". They have two pool tables and you have to pay /ask one of the bartenders .

I don't see why this bar doesn't deserve 5 stars based on my experience! I came here recently on a Friday night and was immediately comfortable knowing the bar was mostly full of harmless gay men, as compared to going to hetero bars where as a woman I have to be alert 'cause you never know. The music was fun, the two bars downstairs weren't too crowded and the margaritas I ordered were just fine served in a full glass. The bartenders were friendly and nice. I like that there are different rooms at this bar including the main room you walk into that has a long bar, cocktail tables, and window seating, a room with a pool table, and a room that is enclosed yet open to the outside air and has patio access if you really want to be outside vs being enclosed in the metal cage-like room with another smaller bar and more cocktail tables. There's two single restrooms downstairs as well. I didn't go upstairs but definitely would in the future. I'm looking forward to going back for more fun nights.
