50 Best Cocktail Bars near Seatac

“Great hotel bar with friendly staff. There’s a few good local beers on draft and plenty of bar games like pool, shuffleboard and board games too. Didn’t try the food so can’t comment on that but definitely a decent place to hang out if staying here night before a flight from Seattle.“

“Love it! Will be back for sure ❤️“

“My absolutely favorite bar in West Seattle. Amazing atmosphere but please hire nicer people as bartenders, people who actually have customer service skills. Often get one bartender who is very rude and unpersonable, seems to hate her job. 💔“

“Fun atmosphere and delicious food!“

“Cool vibe, friendly servers & tasty food!“

“Scrumptious sandwiches! We stopped here on a Friday night on our way to pick someone up at SeaTac after asking for suggestions for a vegan place near I-5. I always crave a good vegan sandwich, because they are a rare find. Husband (plant-based at home, meat-eater when out) and I (plant based & ethical vegan) had the cheesesteak and BLT sandwiches and split them with a side of potato salad. Everything was phenomenal. It was impossible for either of us to pick a favorite of the two. The food wasn't greasy, which is a nice change since restaurant food is almost always drenched & dripping with oil. I love that they make their food from scratch & would love to know how they make their marinades for the seitan and tempeh. My husband raved about the food to several meat-eating friends and told them they would never know it was vegan. Despite our one cocktail & mocktail being in tiny glasses & not worth the price (husband questioned if his vodka soda had any vodka at all in it), I will want to return here every chance I get for the food. Cute place & fun vibe and I hope they have many, many years of vegan success ahead of them. I wish they existed closer to where I live, I'd be a regular for their sandwiches.“

“love sitting on the patio on a warm day and enjoying a cold delicious cocktail. The wings are tasty, the sunday cheesesteak is dynamite. they serve a terrific smoked old fashioned and many drinks on the cocktail list are spectacular. throw in friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere and you’re all set! love this place.“

“Excellent food and service“

“This is a great local restaurant with all the good feelings that go with,,,,and has the plus of truly interesting, tasty, well prepared and well served food.
I've been several times and everything tried on the menu is excellent.
Good for them for getting the NYT accolades, and the team is hustling even more with the increased flow.
Keep it up!“

“Where to begin; the food is phenomenal! This was my second time here, and my amazement just keeps growing. The first time I was here I was by myself and ordered the Bread &Oil, followed by Kalua Pork Mixed Plate. The second time (tonight) my wife and I had cocktails, the Cambodian Beef Skewers, the Chimichurri Steak Salad, the London Fog Crême Brûlée, with an assortment of outstanding cocktails and wine, and I’m sold! This is my place to go. Period.“

“Highly recommend! The buffalo chicken salad was the best salad I’ve had in a long time.“

“AMAZING Spot to come grab drinks“

“Great selection and wonderful staff“

“Walked by the night before and didn't have time to pop in after work, but took note of the cool looking new spot in GTown. Checked out the menu and my mind (and belly) wouldn't allow me to go another day without experiencing the enoki fritters, so a late lunch ensued with fritters and street corn today. Ridiculously tasty, will be back with friends and family to try the rest of the menu and I'm sure you'll be serving my coworkers (repeatedly) as well. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“A unique, fun, friendly indie wrestling bar. Good place to watch live televised wrestling or just hang out for a beer. Not a great food menu, but there is a good happy hour beer special 6-8. They air televised "live" wrestling at 8 instead of 5, so be there by 8! This is a truly one-of-a-kind gem.“

“My wife and I shared a variety of things because their menu was full of interesting choices and we couldn't decide which of the many great options to pick. All of it was delicious, in particular: the green salad had an interesting smokey dressing that I desperately need to know the recipe of, and the pork chop was cooked to perfection. Camp West is an overall fun camping themed restaurant... they even have s'mores for dessert!“

“Amazing food, highly recommend 🫓💗“

“The best Italian food in Seattle. The focaccia is probably the best bread I’ve ever had. The heirloom tomato and nectarine marinara is a revelation. I can’t wait to go back.“

“Cool spot, Old speak easy feel“

“Historical saloon with tasty food and drinks. Also, great atmosphere for amazing live music. Highly recommended!“

“Everything was delicious! We will definitely be recommending Circa to all of our friends.“

“An outstanding place for drinks and food. And, Trivia Night on Monday kicks ass.
What a fun place to be. The staff is awesome. They are charismatic and excellent at their job.
Check it out, and it's a fun time to be had by one and all.“

“I’ve lived on Alki since 1989. I’ve seen many restaurants come and go from this location. Lotus on the Beach is the best of them all. The ability to pick from a variety of Vietnamese and Thai dishes is its strength. The owner and staff welcome any and all critiques of the food and service.“

“If you’re looking for a slice of Seattle’s big-city vibe without venturing into the city, this café-restaurant is an absolute gem nestled right in Newcastle. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by an upbeat yet relaxed atmosphere with music thoughtfully selected by the staff, making you feel like you've stepped into a cool urban café. It’s clear the team has put a lot of heart into the upscale and welcoming ambiance.

The staff here are incredibly warm and welcoming; they go above and beyond to make every visit feel special. Annie, Bella, and Mikaila, in particular, always ensure our experience is fantastic. Their hospitality is next level, so much so that even my 4-year-old daughter loves coming here with me – she’s treated like a little VIP every time! They’ve created an environment that feels comfortable and inviting for everyone, whether you’re a regular or a first-time guest.

As for the food, the menu is as eclectic as it is delicious. There’s something for everyone, and you can tell each dish is crafted with care. The coffee is out of this world – rich, smooth, and full of flavor – easily one of the best around. And if you’re here for dinner, don’t miss the cocktails! They’re perfectly mixed, with unique flavors that match the spirit of the place.

This is not your typical suburban café, nor is it part of the usual chain-restaurant crowd. Every visit here is an experience, and you can really feel the love that goes into it. It’s a true hidden gem, standing out proudly among the standard options. Highly recommend checking it out for a taste of the city vibe right in the heart of the suburbs!“

“Very relaxing spot. Its nice to have a bar you can really chill at. I dig it.“

“I love the cocktails, the people, and the atmosphere ❤️“

“First visit to Jude's. I love it when you meet long-time staff who know the history of a place - Jada was our bartender - hope I spelled it correctly! She knew her cocktails too! If you read up on the background of this place, wanting to be your neighborhood joint, great food and drinks and ambience, then I think they are there. We had the mushroom etouffee with Cajun prawns, fried chicken sandwich, apple salad, and the beignets! I'm sure it is a personal preference, but I thought the beignets were better than at Toulouse Petit. Can't wait to try brunch!!“

“I first heard about Kanishka's Des Moines location through a friend who saw somebody raving about it in a Seattle foodies group here on FB. My friend and I went to check it out and, well, it's my new favorite restaurant. I've been here 3 times and Door Dashed it once in the past month. The food every time has been absolutely fantastic, and the portion size are quite generous. The appetizers are almost entree-sized; the first time I went there with a friend, we filled up on appetizers and had to get our entrees to go. Dish recommendations: Chicken 65 and Fish Pakoras for appetizers; Mixed Grill, Lamb Vindaloo, and Paneer Korma entrees. Also, listen to your host as it seems like they're always trying out new dishes that haven't made it onto the menu yet.“

“Best seafood boil I’ve ever had. So tasty and so much crab definitely coming back here again.“

“A totally secret little gem in Georgetown. I don’t want to say anything about it publicly because I’d hate to see it get too busy but I have to say something about it because it deserves to thrive. it is the go to place to pick up a great meal whether it be a cheeseburger or the perfect wedge salad. Curds or the loaded potatoes! the bartender on Thursdays is one of the cities best, funny and helpful. The crowd is local celebrities. If you haven’t been here, make a point to.“

“Great service and simple but amazing chicken sandwiches. The unique combinations of flavors in each option will make you want to try them all. If you just want a snack, the seasoned curly fries are a must. Then top it off with their delicious soft serve ice cream.“

“Great venue for a private event. Delicious food and vibe. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at the retirement event last night.“

“It’s our first time today. We got lucky coz every time we’ll go there the wait is always long. We had a good experience, the receptionist is very nice and very helpful too bad we forgot to ask her name. Our server is very good and welcoming too. And the food didn’t disappoint us. So happy coz this restaurant is just a walking distance from our place. We will definitely go back and recommend this place to our friends.“

“We came in there on Tuesday night I ordered the crab and prawn Tower salad and I have to tell you was absolutely delicious and I was amazed at how big it actually was I would order this over and over thank you very much enjoyed my meal“

“I’ve never been super into vegetarian or vegan food options but this restaurant makes me rethink my approach. They have a creative menu and high quality food. Everything I try ends up being my new favorite.“

“love this place! Great food and drinks!“

“Live Jazz in a secret location.“

“Stopped here on a spontaneous solo date on the way home from grocery store. sidewalk made for very engaging people watching on a summer’s eve. The service started slow, but improved; fantastic dining!“

“WONDERFUL housemade pasta, whole Branzino. Delicious Barbera. Great desserts, great service, amazing olive oil, which sounds funny, but it was really, really good. I would highly recommend La Medusa.“

“Went there at midnight after a concert, bartender service was prompt and friendly. ID'ed all of us as we entered (27-33y/o)
The tables and chairs themselves are standard diner chairs, nothing fancy but it gets the job done. Food and drinks were fast but we were one of three groups at the bar. There are a few pool tables and a bunch of darts.
Overall was a nice experience.“

“I don't understand why this place only has a 4.1 rating. The food, atmosphere and service was all amazing. My kids declared it their second favorite Mexican restaurant. Best birria tacos I've ever had. Kids had giant pork burritos. Everything was amazing.“

“Visited with some friends, ordered garlic burger medium with a little pink however it didn’t have any pink. Still was a good burger. Friends ordered fish and chips and they were a little bit overdone but they said it was still good.“

“I just moved to the neighborhood back in December and this has been my third time coming here & I love it great food, great service, drinks and the dessert was tasty I Highly recommend The Madador Restaurant“

“We tried the draft beers, classic burger, and tacos. The beers were excellent! The burger was decent but small for the price, with more fries than burger, and the tacos were just okay. The atmosphere is cozy, especially on the corner. They offer indoor and outdoor seating, though the outdoor area didn’t seem fully set up yet for cold weather (maybe it is still early). I’d like to come back to try their brunch options. Restroom was very clean and funny with all the memes playing on the displays.

Parking: Decent sized parking + street parking available.“

“Very nice hotel. Great breakfast, nice pool area. Large lobby at check in with places to sit while you wait. Restaurant had good food if you don't want to go out looking for a place to eat. Nice outdoor patio area. Safe parking garage on site.“
