50 Best Beer Bars in Seattle

“Their local beer selection is impressive. The staff is friendly and very attentive. The food is exceptional and is reasonably priced especially for what it is. The atmosphere… awesome. So much investment in detail with the custom doors, furniture and decor. It definitely feels like a passion project. Seems like the best places are. I can see myself becoming a regular here.“

“Nice people’s and great place for have fun 😎“

“Excellent food. Wonderful service .. Recommend The Shambles steaks… all of them🙃“

“Cool bathroom. Nice location. Friendly staff. I didn’t have a drink but was told they were pretty good. Portions are large. Vegan selections are limited.“

“Chucks has a great selection of both canned beer and options on tap. You can always get a good variety here and they have new things to try all the time. They also offer 4-oz pours which is great for sampling things! Their food truck rotation is solid as well.“

“I have lived in Seattle for decades and never have i had a better experience than i did tonight at full throttle. the beers were amazing and the diversity of the selections available was truly impressive. that coupled with the amazing service given by the bartender, Lauren, made the whole visit even better. Lauren was an absolute pleasure to interact with and made me feel like I was a friend that she had known for ages! she’s got my vote for employee of the month! Would definitely recommend to any who enjoys great service and amazing beverages!“

“Excellent selection and knowledgeable friendly staff“

“U Wine Bar might be my new favorite Magic spot. I came in Wednesday night for the Reality Fracture prerelease and it was everything a prerelease should feel like — an actual wine bar, room to breathe, and a glass of cabernet sauvignon in hand while I cracked my sealed pool. The wine list is legit, the staff actually knows the game, and the whole place has a clean, upscale bar feel instead of the fluorescent lights and folding chairs of a typical game store. Plenty of space to shuffle up, and Friday drafts and Monday Commander nights to come back for. If you want Magic with real wine in a room that doesn't feel like a basement, this is the place.

Also it’s locally owned and partners with other local businesses to provide a curated and unique experience you won’t find elsewhere. Find some time while you’re there to connect with the owner, you’ll enjoy that you did.“

“Amazing Vegan 🌱 BBQ 🍕 and ranch dressing.“

“If you only hit one spot in Seattle: go here. The pelmeni will send you to heaven and the owner is warm and welcoming. Turgenev vibes.“

“This is a great neighborhood spot! The pizza is really, really good, and there's space to spread out and hang with people. The beer is a little spendy ($11/glass, give or take), so I skip that and get something from a nearby brewery if I really want it. But def go for the pizza and the chill vibes!!“

“This was the first place I seeked out in Seattle besides hotel. I had to cross it off my list. It was a great addition to the Seattle experience. They serve great beer, but I was surprised they weren't overrun with people. It was a weekday though, maybe it matters. They have 2 levels and a cozy outdoor patio away from the street. They offer (3) 6oz flights which is the way to go. I'm from Portland, Maine so I like the brewery vibe.“

“Everything I’ve had here is so good! Feature items are always thoughtful and delicious. A regular menu go to is the twice baked potato, which is always so good. This weekend she featured a crab roll, which is one of the best I’ve ever had service is friendly and personal, and the environment is very cozy and welcoming.“

“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!“

“A fun place to go for beer and golf.“

“We used Ravenna for our wedding weekend welcome party and it was a total success. Bobby was the best bartender we could ask for and the space itself was so unique and really added to the experience. It was super easy to schedule with them. And on top of all that, the beer is excellent and some of the best in Seattle.“

“Great atmosphere, kid friendly, awesome selection, and great staff!“

“great service and nice friendly people!“

“Love this place and simple food they got. The beer selection is intense and love the local community vibe! My favorite place in Seward now“

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

“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.“

“Rachel's Ginger Beer is one of my favorite places to grab a ginger beer. My favorite flavor is the Pink Guava. It's the perfect drink to enjoy before you start exploring University Village or as a refreshing treat at the end of your visit.“

“A warm intimate atmosphere with an open flame pizza oven invites you in. But you will stay, enjoying the staff, the people ,and the beautifully crafted food. Even a basic pepperoni and olive pizza will change your attitude about what a pizza should be 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.“

“Swung by Trailbend to wrap up a long urban hike and was super impressed by this place! I sat at the bar and the service was phenomenal - funny, helpful, and sharp. The drink options were pretty interesting and food smelled good, although I didn't try any. The decor inside was similarly impressive - a nice mixup from the brewery aesthetic of the area.“

“Fun neighborhood spot with food trucks. Great to bring kids. Large outdoor areas!“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“Best place for drinks. Great prices. Great food. Pinball and board games everything!“

“Great selections of beer, cider and wine. Typically have a food truck or two!“

“The water bowl is full and the pets are plentiful. 5 ⭐️“

“I’ve been here more than once and I’ll definitely be back! Great atmosphere and really great drinks. I’ve gotten a slushie each time and have been very happy with them all. My friend likes IPAs - so there are great options for both of us.

It’s street parking in a busy area so plan accordingly. There are restaurants close by. We’ve grabbed food and then stopped here after eating for a drink.

The most recent slushie I had from here was a white gummy bear prosecco slush - so good!! Come check it out“

“Worth a stop by, for a pint or a four pack.“

“Definitely a must-try spot! You have to try both the Ripe and Extra Ripe Hazy beers, our favorites! We love the laid back, chill vibe, excellent service, and great beer selection. Brit was especially friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Food and service was amazing. Highly recommend“

“Omg I just had the predator sandwich and it was amazing. This was the best sandwich I ever had and definitely made with love and friendly customer service . I strongly recommend 2 thumbs up.“

“We had Shugs Ice Cream at our team event and it was a total hit! The ice cream was delicious and the perfect treat for our group — everyone loved it. The team was friendly, professional, and made the whole process easy from booking to serving.

If you're looking for a fun, crowd-pleasing dessert for your event, Shugs is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend — we'd book them again in a heartbeat!“

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

“I have spent the last year ordering coffee beans from all over the US always with the intention of coming back to Seven. I recently received my order and prepared myself a double shot of Espresso Huli blend. Simply said it’s like coming back to heaven after deciding to take a walk through the wilderness. Thanks for doing what you do.“

“Had a fantastic pit stop and the bar staff are really friendly and know their stuff about the drinks. Recommend.“

“Delicious brisket pho for lunch today! Server was nice and service was great!“

“Very spacious cafe! Perfect place to work and it seems they also have a coworking model, so even better! Lots of plugs and different seating options. We got the salted maple and brown sugar rosemary lattes and they were delicious! Oat milk was steamed to perfection. Love that they make their syrups in house. The staff seemed cool.“

“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“

“Botteco Brazil is a nice spot to enjoy delicious Brazilian food. I really enjoyed my experience, and the food was flavorful and satisfying. It’s a great place to grab a meal and enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. I’d definitely recommend giving it a try and would be happy to visit again!“

“I love 74th and would never knock them down a star, but I do have one plea about the burger: the giant, hard bread just doesn’t work with it! The burger itself is great, but the bread makes it really difficult to eat. Can we please get regular soft bread as an option?! 🙏“

“It’s very comfortable. Feel is like a big treehouse , yet look close it’s beautifully built I like feeling no pressure to drink which In turn makes me want to have a drink. Love this place. One of the best things about lake city“

“Super glad I was finally able to visit this taproom location for Single Hill! Tried out their Yakima location earlier in the year and that was awesome, so I had high hopes for this Seattle iteration. The taproom is quite small, but they've made good use of the space and supporting the vibes. The on draft options I tried were delicious, fairly priced, and there was a larger variety available than I expected. 5/5!“

“The hazy "Kiwi" IPA best we had during our Seattle visit! Bartenders great at giving us traveling advice! Highly recommend!“

“lunch for 5 men today. all 12th man Burgers. they were legit!!!!!! onion rings Rocked!!!!!“
