A clean dive bar vibe but service is not kind or helpful. Unfortunately the big bummer was that the food was so gross.. and for $18 I was hoping for a burger that wasn’t very overcooked and with absolutely zero seasoning. The sloppy Joe was just mashed up ground beef and bbq sauce… that meal wasn’t even finished
Cool vibe and a t cool place to watch the game but stick to drinks on tap and don’t order the overpriced food

A fun night out in town has to include 9lb! If Shooting pool or shuffleboard is you thing, come on by! They also have lots of pin ball machines and great, delicious foods.

It's a great place to go hang out for affordable beverages and it's quiet enough in there to where you can actually talk to somebody.

First time I went in, it was great. The bartender there was really cool and nice but the second time there was a different bartender and she was mean. She seemed annoyed I was even there and told me they don't do cocktails despite me getting one from there just the other day, they were making cocktails left and right. I guess it depends who's working there if the place is any good.

Big servings, good prices, friendly staff! Love how dark it was inside, painted black and red. Bottles were displayed well and easy to see. So much stuff to look at on the walls and around the bar! Loved the Foo Fighters pinball machine! Some of the stuff hanging and on the walls even included some REALLY cool vintage advertising signs and swag.

This is all about the burger price. It was an absolute 5 star $10 burger. Now it’s a 3 star $18 burger. Nearly double the price for nearly half the stars. Sad!

Dark dive bar with a few rally fun games. Come try the signature home of the 9lb hammer porter.
If you’re looking for a chill spot with good drinks and no frills, 9lb Hammer in Georgetown is the place to be. This is a classic dive bar where you can just relax, grab a beer, and not worry about the pretentious vibes you might find in other parts of the city.
The decor is quirky and a little gritty, but it totally fits the vibe. The drinks are solid, and they don’t skimp on the pour. You’ll find plenty of local beers on tap and cocktails that get the job done without breaking the bank. The food is straightforward, nothing fancy just the kind of stuff you want when you’re a few drinks deep. Plus, there’s usually a food truck outside if you want to switch it up.
They’ve got a pool table, pinball machines, and a bunch of seating, so it’s a great place to just hang out with friends or chat up some locals. The crowd’s pretty mixed, with everything from artists to folks just kicking back after work.
Overall, 9lb Hammer is a solid spot if you’re looking for that laid-back, unpretentious Seattle bar vibe. Great drinks, good people, and zero fuss.

I enjoyed the dark ambiance inside with plenty of room to spread out. Great veggie burgers! The best I've had. They have some non-alcohol beers too.

The bartenders here exhibit discriminatory behavior and appear unwilling to serve patrons of color. This is the second time I’ve visited, and once again, they failed to extend basic courtesy to those waiting for service. I certainly won’t be returning, and I suspect they’ll be pleased to hear it.
