50 Best Bars near Kenmore

“Some of the best times with friends I’ve had at Tabs playing corn hole in the backyard. Or maybe singing karaoke, and laughing. Or maybe just grabbing a bite from their great menu, and catching up with friends. It’s a great place for an after work unwind, or watching your favorite sports team. (Go Hawks!) 💥“

“Best Bartender Ever sweet, Morgan is not like the rest. If she is not there go home.“

“Really lovely atmosphere in the lower level of the lodge at Saint Edwards Park, once a seminary and once the barbershop. Comfy chairs to sit in if they’re available. Great Mixology for the cocktails, friendly and attentive service! Ryan was wonderful.“

“Great neighborhood location to eat on Queen Anne.“

“The cocktails I had were amazing. Staff was awesome and very generous.“

“Such a fun place to grab a craft cocktail and some pho. The drinks were very unique and the pho was surprisingly very good. We also tried the Tofu Dip and the spring rolls. The dip was delicious but very rich and the spring rolls were very fresh. We definitely ordered too much food but it was delicious and a fun experience.“

“Very cool bar near Greenwood with delicious drinks. The bartenders are absolutely amazing and keep the vibes up in the already neat atmosphere. They went above and beyond to make each drink special. Comfy seats, clean bathroom, and various snack options. It is a small venue so better for groups of 4 or less.“

“We stopped by and ordered the carnitas fries and crab rangoons—both were seriously delicious. The fries were loaded and flavorful without being overly greasy, and the crab rangoons had that perfect crispy bite with a rich, creamy filling. You can tell they use quality ingredients and really care about what they’re serving.

The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming—it felt like visiting a local spot where people actually care about their customers. Their energy really set the tone and made the experience even better.

We didn’t try the drinks this time, but they looked super creative and well put together—definitely coming back to try those. Plus, the location is perfect for enjoying a sunny Seattle day. Great food, great people, and a relaxed, fun vibe. Highly recommend!“

“This location is truly exceptional! The staff is outstanding, with Daniel standing out in particular. He went above and beyond to ensure my group had a fantastic experience. I highly recommend both the ambiance and the service, especially Daniel and his remarkable hospitality!“

“Delicious cocktails and eats, friendly neighborhood place. cozy, when you can go inside!“

“Wonderful place where meat eaters and vegans can delight in a delicious meal. Great wine section and craft cocktails. Quaint wine shop to bring something home or scoop a gift for a friend on the way to the party. Be sure to try the butter pickles!“

“Love going to RGB every time we are in Seattle. This location just isn't it, though. The service is usually awkward and slow. Tables and floors were dirty this last visit. I'd still patron for the RGB, but it just doesn't compare to their Pike Place spot.“

“Nataly is such a great gal! We were made to feel that they were happy to see us. We had a really fun night!“

“Excellent cocktail. Good vibe.“

“This place is a gem!! Great food and service! After attending a concert, my friends and I were hungry. They let us in even though they were closing soon. Told us not to rush and just enjoy. The grilled cheese was perfect! Definitely coming back here again!“

“This place is AWESOME! Such a fun and inviting atmosphere paired with the friendliest team I’ve experienced in ages. The food is impeccable! You’ve gotta try it to understand. They’ve thoughtfully created an atmosphere that’s perfect for a group, date, solo or bring your grandma - it all goes! As a natural introvert, this is the ideal space for someone like me to meet others and have some vivacious conversations. I’ll continue to travel across three states to visit. If you’re closer to this local haunt, what are you waiting for??? 1,000 stars.“

“I love love love your ciders especially Excelsior. BUT EVEN BETTER IS THE APPLE PIE ONE! Please tell me there will be a six pack for those soon! They are incredible! I can only find them in the variety pack! Will there ever be just an apple pie 6 or 12 pack??? If not - what would it take for my entire family to convince you? Haha Thank you in advance. Huge fan. - Gina“

“Had a great time at this bar, the interior was really awesome, a spooky, eerie vibe! Loved it and definitely recommend stopping in for a drink!“

“this is the best bar in Seattle and has been for a very long time. it does one thing (sour/lambic/belgian ales), perfectly. the owner is so thoughtful and kind, and every time i go here i find myself appreciating a place that offers something so different than any other bar in town. this is not the place to bring a rowdy group, and I'm baffled by the suggestion in another review that they should add TVs - that is an insane thought, a complete misread of what the Stumbling Monk offers. it is perfect as is!“

“By far the best pizza in Seattle. Super chill staff and vibes. The Za is incredible. Some unique creations as well. Such a great variety of beers local and foreign on tap and bottled. They probably have the only outdoor seating in Ballard which catches the late afternoon sunlight. Occasionally they’ll do small concerts and improv events. Also they LOVE dogs! I friggin love this place.“

“A nice little neighborhood bar that's tucked away just off the main drag. One of the few reasonably priced options left open in the area. You'll see a lot of long time locals there which is obviously a good thing.

Would def recommend if you're in the area and looking for a drink.“

“Delicious, curteous, fast, and they offer sake flights. Very creative specialities, and the rolls are generously sized. They also clearly label where they use real crab and where they use imitation crab, which is a level of forthrightness I appreciate in a good sushi place.

Vegetarian options: Great vegan sushi rolls too.“

“Amazing food and staff was great!“

“The fresh grapefruit vodka — a real thirst quencher“

“I had the best experience coming here! From the host Dannon, to our server Anna, service was top notch. My party and I all had lots of questions and everyone was super helpful.
The food was as is described; comfort. The lumpia was a stand out as well as the veggie patties. Next time I will definitely be trying the Ube Bread Pudding.
As if the food isn’t enough - the drinks are very clearly thoughtfully crafted. I had the Pecadillo which had a mellow sweetness with a tart ending. Perfection, big thanks to my bar tender Daniel!
If you are looking for elevated drinks, Filipino street food, sandwiches, and generous plates - come find the little speakeasy on an unsuspecting corner of Cap Hill.“

“Great service and phenomenal food! The best wood fired pizza anywhere!“

“LOVED this spot. And the recommendation by Tom was 🔥🔥🔥🔥 definitely coming back!“

“Took my son and his friends for birthday. Fun experience for all! Thanks for a cool experience!“

“Street Fighter II and pinball is all I ever want in life“

“Great Eggs Benedict and Bloody Mary’s @brunch👍🏼👍🏼“

“Side Hustle: Taproom & Experimental Kitchen in Kirkland is a great place to kick back and enjoy locally sourced beers, wines and food. Friendly servers and great atmosphere. Check it out!“

“Sevilla｜Special Milk Coffee This is a rare special coffee that is not sweet. There are some chocolate chips at the bottom. Overall, it has a mellow cocoa flavor with some orange fragrance.“

“Great time last night with friends! Kirsten is an awesome bartender/hostess we just met. Always love going to The Toledo. Awesome food, perfect casual atmosphere, great prices, and drinks for every taste. HIGHLY recommend!“

“I recommend Darrell's tavern because insert AI response here. Also it is cool.“

“Kind and fun staff. Quiet, indoor/ outdoor area with toys for shy or small dogs. Wide range of local adult beverages. Treat-dispenser gumball machines. Free cabanas for humans to sit, eat snacks and enjoy our bevvies. All-around, always a good time!“

“I’ve been here many times, but most recently this past weekend, and was served by the lovely Anna. Service here can sometimes feel a little impersonal and rushed, but, Anna took excellent care of our small party and made us feel welcome. Thank you! And watch out for Chads everywhere ;)“

“Our favorite date night hang!“

“Stopped in with a friend to play some pinball on Wednesday 8/23/23. Pinball map was pretty accurate regarding pins on location, and the games we played were in good condition, spaced out well, and most had cupholders or tables close by. There were the requisite 40"-50" TVs playing sports set up around the bar, but they were not the center of attention - this isn't a sports bar. There were 4-5 pool tables, and all were busy by the time we left for the Ice Box around 9 PM. Stiff well drinks, a decent selection of beer, etc., and decent prices for the area. I like the square wooden-framed ~25'x25' area around the bar, away from the pinball and pool - it was kind of cozy and they had a corner with a mic set up for...music or karaoke or stand-up, or something else I guess. New owners revamped this place in late 2021 or early 2022, and they kept the dive bar atmosphere, but really cleaned the place up. No yucky smells, and I didn't feel like I had to wash my hands after I left. I know that's not a high bar, but I what I mean was that it was a pleasant and unpretentious place to hang out. Didn't try any food - maybe next time. Sorry, no pictures this time!“

“Great pizza, great drinks and beer selection, and a cool, dark, macabre atmosphere.“

“Loved this place so much! I consider quiting my teaching job and opening a ginger beer stand! Joking, but I would be a regular if a place like this existed in my hometown.
I was so happy when the bartender offered me to try a few varieties before I could make a choice. I settled on the pink guava, which was litely sweet and refreshing.“

“Fantastic spot with great food and servers. Loved the Hawaiian atmosphere and the bartender made a fantastic peach margarita! Will be back for the Mac salad and pulled pork!
Seems like a great spot to watch sports as there are lots of large televisions.“

“Awesome little place with great staff. Gavin made us feel like we were regulars and made a perfect Negroni for me. 10 out of 10“

“The food is so good you'll punch your own face.“

“Food is a side note, Covid-19 protocol and all. All I ever get are almonds, but they are served in a glass with a smile.Great selection of beer. Decent off premise sale prices. Cool in the heat, warm in winter. Too bad it is so far from my neighborhood.“

“The food and the people both working living and running it are alll awesome! Also some of my best friends in life are and we’re made here…. Like the hoodie say’s… Good talk!🙏🏽💖🧿“

“existing. *facebook wants more chars, so here they are...“

“Great gem of a neighborhood pub. They do a perfect rendition of the classic American pub burger, and the tap selection is diverse. I like how it's quiet enough to go alone with a book, but busy enough to bring your pals and have a nice evening.“

“A cafe for beer lovers! Quiet place for conversation. Amazing selection of beer.“
