31 Best Brewpubs in Seattle

“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!“

“Space dust ipa recommended by the staff was amazing. Smash burger with curly fries was awesome. Service was great . It was afternoon and non peak but was slightly busy.
Bit overpriced and very high on calories. Couldn’t get calories count of my meal despite asking.
Overall great place.“

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

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

“great service and nice friendly people!“

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

“Jellyfish Brewing is a perfect local spot next to Green Lake Park. Great place to stop after walking, scootering, or wandering around the neighborhood. They had good beer options, cocktail options, and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend the Sea Wasp Scotch Ale and the Cannonball Oatmeal Porter 😋

Also, the pinball machines are a fun touch — though the Demolition Man machine did eat my four quarters, which honestly felt like it was performing a full capitalism thesis on the themes of Demolition Man. Still had a great time. Cool spot, good drinks, and a fun neighborhood vibe.“

“One of my absolute favorite breweries! The Gas Works location is hard to beat—amazing views, a great atmosphere, and you can even pull up by boat or drive in.

It’s always busy, which says a lot about how good this place is! The beer is consistently delicious, the food is just as good, and you really can’t beat sitting back with a cold beer and enjoying those incredible views.

Such a fun Seattle spot and one I’m always happy to come back to. 🍻“

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

“amazing place very cool!!!“

“I have been a big fan of Elliot Bay for 8 years now and I'm shocked that it took me this long to write this review. At this point I've had pretty much everything on their menu and most of it is amazing. The beer is always cold and delicious. But the staff is by far and away what caused me to write this review. The restaurant next door gave the reservation away for my birthday party and we were stuck scrambling to figure out where to go. Elliot Bay was so kind and moved some tables around for us so that we could all sit together, on a busy Saturday night. I call that going above and beyond. I'm so grateful!“

“Made a stop here on a brewery crawl. Lots of interesting beers that are different from what you find at a lot of breweries. We did find the service felt a little disinterested- You order via QR code which is convenient but our drinks were generally dropped off without a word from the server. Just made the experience feel a little more impersonal than breweries normally do.“

“Stumbled upon this spot on a Monday night when my friend and I wanted a quick bite after going to some breweries, and we were not disappointed!! The jolly sliders were amazing, but I feel like the fries were the star of the show! The aioli sauce that they have was so good with the fries too! The guy working the bar was very nice and had great recommendations on what we should get for food and drinks. I definitely want to come back and try the other stuff they have to offer.“

“amazing place very cool!!!“

“My first time being here and, Had a great time at Rooftop Brewing Company inside of the Jolly Roger Taproom! 🍻 I’ve tried a flight of the Old Seattle Lager 5%, La Azotea Mexican Lager 4.5%, Fresh Hop Amarillo IPA 6%, Tropical Staycation Hazy IPA 6.9%, and the Imperial IPA 7.5%.

My personal favorites are definitely the Old Seattle Lager and La Azotea Mexican Lager — both were refreshing, smooth, and easy to drink. I love getting to try the different styles they have available, and there’s a great variety depending on what you’re in the mood for.

Great beer, fun atmosphere, and definitely a place I’d come back to!“

“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.“

“Best place ever for the big time events!“

“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.“

“Elysian Brewing was a great stop! Tons of beer options, tasty drinks, and some really good food. The place was packed and buzzing with energy, with plenty of TVs showing the games. Definitely a lively, fun atmosphere and a great spot to grab a beer, enjoy some food, and catch a game. Busy for sure, but that just added to the experience. Definitely worth checking out! Great place to start the day before Seahawks!!“

“Great beer. But it smells quite badly in here — like last year’s grease fire. Recommend the beer but not the taproom.“

“Absolutely fantastic! We got and split the Fish & Chips and Communication Breakdown Burger with tater tots. Both were phenomenal. Those were THE cripiest fish I've ever had and perfectly cooked. The burger was delicious - and ode to a cheese steak sandwich with the grilled onion, mushrooms, and bell peppers. Service was spot on. And why is everyone so tall in this town! Loved our server.“

“Another incredible Mcmenamins restaurant!!
I can't say enough nice things about the tight crew. I do miss Fiona though. Hansa was our server the last couple times this week. They made excellent drinks, and were super personable. I highly recommend the wings. My goodness. They are actually made fresh, hot and perfectly sauced. The burgers, yes all of them are excellent. I get the one with bleu cheese, my partner gets the Backyard BbQ one. Get the seasoned tots. There's a variety of condiments to choose from if you ask nicely. The wrap was super tasty if you want something lighter and fresh.

Monday is Industry day so Happy Hour prices on drinks for industry workers.

Get the Lost Boys. (Halloween time exclusive) Some of the fellow bar mates when on and on about how creative it was. It's the perfect treat after a long day of school and physical training. Trust.“

“The food and beer were amazing great deals!!“

“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“

“best breakfast for an airport!! our server/manager went above and beyond, making sure our food was prepared perfectly.“

“Nice, casual brewery has great food to accompany your beer. I really enjoyed the fish and chips - two pieces of cod with nicely done fries - $20. The fish is beer battered. You pick up your food from a truck parked out front; they give you a buzzer so you know when your food is ready. I don't normally drink near beer, but I didn't want to drink at lunch - and Reuben's NA beer pleasantly surprised me. It was really good!
Staff does a nice job and the space is clean and comfortable. I had a nice lunch date with my friend, Dale, and will definitely return!“

“Needs work. Can we approach a food truck without passing back out of the metal detector protection zone? I like my food protected from metal. Also the beers out here are more than in the stadium during "happy hour"? Really? Not happy.“

“I came here twice. Once in the middle of the day and once in the early evening. I didn't eat. Quiet music and a few tables out on the street promote a nice relaxed atmosphere. It's my first time in Seattle so not sure if it's pricey as per the rest of the city but the bill didn't upset me. Staff are a mixed bag. Like all humans, can have bad days. 5 stars if not for that.“

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

“My family and I hosted my dad's celebration of life at the Elliott Bay Lake City location and had an exceptional experience. We rented out the downstairs Cascade Hall area and it was a perfect event space. We got to choose from an extensive catering menu, and all the staff were very helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend this place for any of your future events!“

“we had great food an the best service great job all around“
