The food is unbelievably delicious. They have the best burger in Seattle, and the drinks are incredible. The vibe is great, the service is top tier, and it’s easily my favorite downtown bar.

Stopped in for a quick dinner and was very impressed. The have vegan choices and things on the menu they can make vegan if need be. Just need to ask. The bar tender was great, just enough conversation but easy to chat with and didn’t try to linger. Got to try the polenta tots. Great snack and side for the vegan quesadillas! Beer was cold, looks like they had a great lineup of whiskey as well, so will be back to try the scotch! Hope you enjoy as well!

Stopped for a drink on our way down to Pikes place. Pretty cool place. I like the decor. Drinks are fun names. I got the pink eye drink and it was really good.

I've been staring at this eyeball light/sign for 7 years and finally went in. It's just ok.

My friend and I wanted to grab dinner and drinks before a show at the Crocodile. None of the cocktails were particularly interesting and while the menu had one or two interesting items, there wasn't much you can't find elsewhere. My friend got a pasta dish and enjoyed it. I got a quesadilla , which are hard to mess up. But it was a pretty small one for the price and they charged me extra for a salsa refill that probably came from a jar. I don't know, it just wasn't that great. I'd get something else if I return.

Service was weird because when we first came in, the bartender was very attentive. But as more people came into the establishment, we were quickly forgotten. They only had two other staff members that were also working in the kitchen, so it was impossible to flag them down. We never got the bartender's attention again and I had to get up from the table multiple times and walk over to the kitchen to get extra salsa, a water glass, and the check. It wasn't even that crowded. I don't know if it was an off night or if staffing is always this minimal.

Quirky interior that is pretty Seattle, with a glass panther collection, license plates, velvet art, and retro tables.

If you don't mind paying the prices for okay food then this is an alright spot to go before or after a show. It's convenient and has local flavor. But my meal felt very utilitarian, the service was not good, and I can't say I am rushing to come back.

playing punk music, serving great food, and their house / namesake IPA one of the best west coast IPA’s I’ve ever had. bleu cheese burger was perfect. side salad was better than most bars ever have. sweet potato fries were ideal taste and texture and the dipping sauce is exactly what I was craving.

I only wish the music was a tiny bit louder bc their selection was incredible.

Wednesday 10/22. Had to wait for over 20 min cuz bartender was at the crocodile show next door. Server ended up pouring me a drink and under poured it for a double. Bartender came back and over poured my second double… kitchen closed early.
Also got charged $66 for two doubles GnT w/ Hendrix…. One bottle of Hendrix like $30-$40, crazy. Terrible experience
