“definitely great beer! i’m looking for Smoked Lager around Seattle area and found this gem! I tried both their smoked lagers and they are pretty damn good! the place reminds of good Ol’ town bars in the west! good vibes here!“

“Great local brew spot that everyone there makes you feel welcome once you walk in. The brew is really good and always rotating.“

“Game Day!! With Bickerson’s!!“

“I support establishments that support inclusivity“

“Your food and drinks are amazing! Had a burger with a BUN for the first time in a VERY long time! I'd pretty much given up on gluten free buns. The peach sour and the beer was delish! Felt so good to know I could eat anything on the menu and not worry about any cross contamination!“

“Great beer, especially their hazy IPAs. Friendly service and good food. The vibe/atmosphere was just okay, but we came for the beer. Also liked the loaded tots. Good location near many of Seattle’s downtown attractions. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.“

“Large brewery with ample indoor and outdoor seating. Great and knowledgeable staff who are always willing to help you work on a decision for the perfect selection! A wide variety of beer with ever present standards and fun seasonal creations!“

“We tried 8 beers here, and each one was different to the others and didn't match other beers from other spots. The atmosphere is friendly, and you can even be immersed in beer brewing in real time.“

“Five stars for being a great place to watch Arsenal FC win or lose with other Arsenal fans in a business with staff who really care about your Arsenal watching experience. They even added an outside television for the UEFA Champions league which was AWESOME because the other Arsenal pub had nearly 200 people standing in line outside more than 2 hours before the 2026 UEFA CL game had started and so we then headed to Machine House Brewery and saw they were also full inside and that they added the outdoor television!! It was a majorly appreciated addition and it felt like a connected community standing together outside watching our Gunners!

🎶 North London Forever 🎶“

“Came for the bingo, stayed for the jo-jos. Best catfish po-bo of MY LIFE. Will be back next week for bingo (it was cancelled when we showed up) and more Jo Jos. The beer was pretty good - a lot of IPAs but I opted for the Kolsch and the Coconut Porter (it didn't drink like a dessert porter which is what I prefer) which were very nice. A nice spot worth the drive.“

“Jellyfish Brewing Co. Makes the most delicious, inventive beer! It’s our favorite watering hole. And we are so happy it’s so close.“

“Thanks for making the new beer Mirror's Edge in collaboration with our Burien Run Club (Burien Run Walk). It is really good! You are always friendly and this is just a great place for us to meet on Thursday nights. I can't recommend this establishment enough! shout out to Blake and to the brewer Michael. You are amazing!“

“Absolutely the best pizza and wings in town. And the customer service Is the best as well. They go out of their way to make sure everyone is content“

“I went here before seeing MCR at T-Mobile Park. You'd never be able to tell from the outside, but this place is cooler than anything else in the area. The beer is delicious, and the vibes are next level. Do yourself a favor man, hit this place up.“

“Classic beach vibe - lots of outdoor seating including Adirondack chairs in sand. Not a huge selection of taps but enough of a selection. A handful of games available. Didn’t wow me but it’s the only brewery along the beach front so that’s cool“

“Great MicroBrewery! Staff & Brews are some of the Best out in the Industry!“

“Best Hazy IPAs in the Pacific Northwest!! The Laser Wolf hazy IPA is wow, such a delightful creamy mouthfeel, balance of fruit and hops, the best hazy I tried in 1 month of brewery stops in Seattle (Fast Fashion brewery’s hazy IPAs are #2 best). The Oktoberfest Marzen was also an excellent beer. The Georgetown taproom is really nice, dog friendly inside and outside with plenty of seating. The two beertenders were super friendly, we enjoyed talking to them. And the merch is super cool too, I bought a hat. The vibe is very community focused, they even had a cooking class one time we visited. There was easy and free street parking or you can pay in the closer lot. Highly recommend Great Notion in Georgetown!“

“This brewery had the BEST root beer on tap I have ever had on. I will definitely be coming back for some delicious root beer. I took some to go!! The brewery itself is beautiful and very friendly and welcoming. I would most definitely recommend this brewery to someone. The coolest part was that they had coffee brewing too!! How awesome. I loved this place. The employees were incredibly kind. 10/10“

“One of our friends described this very Seattle brewery perfectly: You see people playing D&D while the Seahawks are playing. Beers are brewed in house! We love playing games and hanging out here. Friendly staff and fantastic atmosphere. I mean, how can you beat hanging out, drinking and playing board games while watching sci-fi films / Seahawks games? Strangely to some, the most impressive aspect is the restroom setup. Gender neutral rooms with tampons/pads on hand for those who need them. For those who don't typically see this setup, it's kind of a big deal and helps this brewery stand out.“

“This might have been the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. Perfectly juicy thick piece of chicken, salted beautifully so you get little hits just when you want it, a well measured amount of sauce to highlight the flavors and not overwhelm.

The Split Pea Fritters were also fried to perfection and had such a fantastic flavor on their own but once paired with the sauce holy cow.

The brewery the restaurant is in was serving up pints with an insane level of balance. A great example is the coconut porter which most hit you hard with the coconut up front. Not this one, the coconut is a playful flavor through the sip making it such an easy drink to go down. Same with the lagers and IPAs we tried. Even the root beer was probably one of the best I've had!

The staff were so bright and inviting, happy to explain things even though they were busy. They were hosting a community non-profit for artists which made for a fun and vibrant atmosphere.

This restaurant hits far above it's weight, priced perfectly, cooked perfectly, fun and engaging staff, it hit every box I could think of. I have 0 notes about my experience here!“

“Tasty beers with a cool industrial vibe. A great selection of fruity sours packed with flavor. A black raspberry grisette stole my heart... Also, bonus points for being right under the SeaTac flight path. Super fun to watch jets flight right above the patio.“

“Probably the best alcoholic ginger beer I’ve ever tasted (the imperial). Shocked this was my first time trying it. But now that I know this exists, I’m sure it will be accompanying me to every backyard party this summer. Thanks for making a great product yall!“

“Cloudburst reminds me of how breweries used to be 10 plus years ago. They find some space inside the actual brewery operations. Set up a small bar counter and a few tables. Open the garage door and serve beer for a few hours in the late afternoon-evening, maybe four days a week tops. I miss that vibe.“

“I love ginger beer and don’t drink and I loved that this place feels like brewery with non alcoholic options. The white peach flavor was amazing. Staff were so nice and let us try as many flavors as we wanted to. Definitely worth a stop.“

“A massive thank you to Big Block in Sammamish and dynamo Kyle behind the counter for helping us pull off a fabulous engagement party. Venue was the talk of the town and many family and friends plan on returning to try the beers they didn't get to! Bride and groom each tried 5 and want to come back for trying the rest!
Truly though, thank you. It is such a fabulous space. Kyle was a pleasure to work with and made the day that much more fun for us and our guests.“

“Love it every time I go! Great beers, tasty food and the employees are all friendly, attentive and overall just awesome!“

“Jenny I. was our server. She did a fantastic job. We came to the brewery, after watching the Mariners beat our Cubs in the 9th inning, very disappointed; however, she was very friendly and made our evening. Her service stood out. We will be back….“

“Stopped in to grab a bite to eat and it was a nice place. The inside is surprisingly big. Got the Seattle Poutine and it was okay. I took a bite out of my friend's Smash Burger and it was yummy. I would have loved to try some of their beer but I was in charge of leading the group and didn't think it was a good idea to get tipsy beforehand“

“Order at the counter, and you can get chicken sandos and Rachel’s Ginger beer at the same place. Casual and very artistic atmosphere. Different flavors of Ginger beer, alcoholic drinks with the Ginger beer, blended drinks… so good! You can do a little sample if you’re not sure what you want. Good for a lunch or bite after work. Right across the street from spheres.“

“They have lovely outside fires where you can sip draft beer and much on fresh hot soft pretzels and stone ground mustard.“

“Best Hazy IPAs in Seattle!! Truly impressed at the creamy, juicy, flavorful hazies at Fast Fashion Brewing like Hot Pizza - seriously I pride myself on being a Hazy IPA connoisseur, I’ve been up and down the West Coast and Midwest enjoying them. Both the Hazies I had yesterday were delicious, super fresh, cold and left my mouth feeling pure joy. Sue our beertender was friendly and let us sip on a few beers before making our picks. They have comfy booth seating and beers to go. Check them out and support local breweries!“

“Great food and beer... amazing service!“

“Nice vibe, sucks that the one and only TV was broken on the night of the 1st football game of the season but we watched it on a phone. There was no AC seemingly so it was super hot and when you’re getting tipsy the warmth is that much worse. The cider is a mix of yummy and mid. We tried several cider flights, about 12 flavors and I only really enjoyed maybe 3? Anyways the food was great, my partner and I tried the circus burger, basket fries and the popcorn chicken. WARNING: it’s not really popcorn chicken. I was hella hungry thinking it was actually gonna be popcorn sized and so I ordered the 20 piece, BIG MISTAKE, if you’re one person, order the 8 piece. It’s not popcorn sized or even chicken nugget sized. It’s like even larger than if you ordered boneless wings at wing stop. Not bad, just ordered too much food and I unfortunately get the OPPOSITE of the drunchies! Attached photo for reference. It’s delicious though and so is the sauce.“

“had the French dip before the Seattle Thunderbirds game. very good, good service.“

“I wish we could have fully immersed ourselves here. As passport holders, we wanted to relax and take it all in, but we could find no parking with a big pick-up truck. We had one person stay with the vehicle up on a nearby neighborhood hill, while the rest of us hurried in and had a shot so we could get stamps. I couldn't really appreciate the place given the hurry up/shots/leave. I wish we could have taken it all in“

“This was a good brew pub with a wide variety of beer choices. The food options are pretty good and align with simple but tasty handheld. I had the fish and chips which the fish was good but the fries were underwhelming. They were just basic fast food style fries unfortunately.“

“We stopped by for a late lunch and the service was friendly and fast for a sit down restaurant. All our food was absolutelytop notch. My hot honey chicken sandwich in particular was perfectly made(see pic). It had great flavor and wasn't hot.(although I wouldn't have minded if it was at least medium spicy)

They of course have an amazing adult beverage selection. Their specialty mohito and IPA were absolutely delicious too. There's plenty of parking in the area and it's kid friendly, with a kids menu.

We've been here multiple times and always have a great experience and excellently prepared food and friendly service! I highly recommend Elliott Bay Brewing!(all their locations too!)“
