“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!“

Here Today Brewery & Kitchen Brewery •
2815 Elliott Ave Suite 101, Seattle

“Such a great find! This brewery is tucked right next to the Olympic Sculpture Park, so it’s easy to walk past, but absolutely worth stopping in. The beers are excellent especially the Hazy IPA, which was super refreshing. Some options come in cans, though I was hoping for more on tap. The food selection was delicious, and I’m excited to try more next time. I’m especially looking forward to coming on a Wednesday for Vinyl Night, where you can play your own record for just a dollar. Definitely one of the best breweries to check out!“

Métier Brewing Company Cherry St Taproom Brewery • $$
2616 E Cherry St, Seattle

“A family friendly space. Good for loving parents to either little humans or pets or both. There is a separate kitchen that serves bites. You have to order separately, so the brewery shares the space. Not a place to be seeking royal treatment, but it is chill and I will definitely be revisiting for as long as possible in the future. A laissez faire experience.“

There’s even a food truck nearby with amazing BBQ, sausages, and pork — perfect combo with the beer. Excellent atmosphere, friendly people, and totally worth checking out. Highly recommend! 👌“

Obec Brewing Brewery • $
1144 NW 52nd St, Seattle

“I'm on the board of a community organization that held our annual event at Obec this year and our group had such a fun time. Wayne and the bartender staff all did a fantastic job making sure we were well taken care of. Our small event planning team mostly got to just relax and enjoy gathering with our community after we were done with our very easy set up. Stacey, who oversaw the planning for the event, was a delight to work with in helping us organize, answering all of our questions, ensuring everything was tracked, and even helping us coordinate a food vendor that served delicious tacos made on-site.

Also, I just really love this space... the giant Art Nouveau style mural on the outside of the building, the twinkle lights on the barrels in the event space, the secret door between the main bar and Side Pull Lounge with a library of vinyl record albums, and the lighting and wall decorations all make this place feel like it's thoughtfully put together and loved without being overly stiff.

We will definitely be back.“

Fair Isle Brewing Brewery •
936 NW 49th St, Seattle

“fair isle has rapidly become my go to brewery since they opened. a little off the beaten path means it doesn't get nearly as loud and "bro-tastic" as the other Ballard breweries. the beer itself is excellent and their experimental nature means their is always something new to try. the occasional food is always tasty. overall, fair isle is my favorite of all the Ballard breweries; a well hidden secret that I hate to share.“

Dirty Couch Brewing Brewery •
2715 W Fort St, Seattle

“One of my favorite seattle breweries! Great complex sours ranging from mild to lip puckering tart (although this is coming from a sour sensitive palate FYI), as well as stouts, ipas, braggots and more! Highly recommend for anyone visiting the Seattle area who enjoys beers. It's definitely worth the visit! My standouts (as of June 2025) include smoke show, rampart sour red, armchair philosopher, and Peter Peter pear eater.“

Ladd & Lass Brewing Brewery •

“Love this spot! Super chill neighborhood brewery with a great variety of beers. 🍻 Trivia night on Thursdays is always a blast, and happy hour (3–5pm) is a solid deal. They sell their beer in cans too, which is perfect for taking home.

Sometimes you’ll catch a food truck out front, but they’re cool with you bringing your own food as well. It’s a cozy, couple-owned place with an awesome community vibe. Definitely one of my go-to breweries!“

Be sure to get the story behind the co-op idea and name (initially they thought the concept would work like a Flying Bike 🤣)!
Friendly service, laid back vibes, and the hazy was crisp and fresh. Just won a medal for their porter too, but wasn’t in the mood.
Love how they develop and select their offerings…maybe co-ops can lift off, if’n you pedal hard enough!“

“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.“

“Great little local ‘small batch’ microbrewery. I had the ‘Queen Anne's Revenge’ (IPA) and the ‘Boathouse Wit’ (Belgian-style witbier), both were excellent. They also have a stand at Magnolia’s Farmers Market Saturday’s. Hadn’t tried the food yet. I will be going back. Dog friendly. Parking is tight on weekends so you probably will park on the street.
Please remember to not drink & drive!“

“Ah, there's goodness a foot and it comes in the form of a tap. Fremont Brewing welcomes all to their festive beer garden, and their liquid courage in the form of hop laced excellence. The enviroment is classic beer garden with that Seattle twist, picnic benches, flora, and food trucks. Yes, you must pair your drink with some edible sustenance, not required but I suggest it. It's a casual affair, so bring a friend or two or three, find some seating, and kick back and relax, good times await. That inner child you've been seeking to discover has just been tapped. It's deliciously good.“

“A consistently good, but rarely exceptional brewery. Perhaps my expectations are too high due to the history, head brewer, etc for this brewery, but I was expecting some truly fantastic IPAs. While all of the IPAs on tap were definitely above average, nothing blew us away in the way we hoped. Cloudburst definitely knows what they are doing, though. I expect them to be a pillar of Seattle brewing for the foreseeable future. Staff was fine, but not particularly friendly or knowledgeable. While we went in the middle of winter, it was approximately the same temperature inside as it was outside as well. There are a few kinks to work out as far as service goes.“

Lisa was very helpful, she showed us the space before we booked and answered all our questions. They offered a great variety of beers, ciders, and N/A options. We used the projector screen, and mic, and my family went nuts with decorating the barrels, super fun! We highly recommend Reuben's Barrel House for private parties/events!“

“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.“
