11 Best Bars in Ellensburg

“Small tap room, but comfortable, helpful staff, good beer and pizza!
We stopped here on our way to a show at the Gorge Ampitheater for a quick meal.
Was 2 pm on a Friday so wasn't busy, but had some steady customers coming and going. Beer was good and was able to try a few. We loved that they also had a wide cider selection.
Pizzas were great and the leftovers made from some great late night snacking while exiting the Gorge at midnight!
We even ended up walking out with a bit of swag. Nice find in a bit of an out of the way location.
They had a nice patio, but, when we were there it was chilly and windy so we elected to stay inside.
Oh, and, apparently they do some of the manufacturing for Locust cider, so you know the stuff they had on tap was great!“

“Stopped here in Ellensburg for the last 2 days of our vacation in Washington State/BC before heading back to the UK - loved the beer, the atmosphere and the welcome from the staff. They offer food too and the tacos were home-made and really good. Highly recommend a visit here - we had a really enjoyable evening.“

“Awesome vibes and great service
I don't remember your name, and I don't wanna get you in trouble, but thank you for the free fries and soda, it really made our birthday celebration feel complete.
We ordered the hungry mother burgers, which were perfection, great char, melty cheese everywhere, veggies perfectly balanced the double patties and were only ~11$
And a good mix of music heard some older titles mixed with things like Gorillaz great place, will be coming back with more money“

“The beginning of our visit was ok, our first server Laine was ok. She never asked us what type of hefe we wanted and the glass we got was chipped. But all that was reconciled when Hannah came in. She made us feel like part of the family and hosted us perfectly.“

“The new owners of Cornerstone Italian Kitchen have made REMARKABLE changes! The food is deliciously crafted by the amazing cooks, the drink specials by Jensen are magical ✨️, the atmosphere is cozy yet chic, and the service is friendly and warm. 10/10 recommend for everybody; date nights, family fun, big parties, AND catering! The live music in the summertime is a MAJOR bonus, too. 🎶“
