50 Best Pubs in Seattle

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

“With its peaked-wood ceiling, wood panel booths and winter sport décor, Sully’s Snowgoose Saloon in Phinney Ridge feels like you’ve stepped into a chalet in the Alps. The original bar, La Boehme opened in 1934, making one of the oldest bars in Seattle. It became Sully’s in 1995. I asked the bartender what was good, she suggested a Sully-Dog. I gladly accepted the recommendation. The large polish dog came on a hoagie roll with sauerkraut, chopped onions, mustard and relish. It was delicious and the service was great!“

“Should have gotten there earlier!“

“Streamline Tavern Forevahhh“

“Killer Tap list, dog-friendly outdoor patio, and delicious food!“

“So friendly and accommodating and the absolute best “bar” food I’ve ever had. The Bird chicken burger was phenomenal and the pork belly tacos were the best I’ve ever had. I will be coming back for sure!!“

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

“We just were looking for a drink and visit and this was perfect. Several outdoor options each with their own vibe. Has heaters everywhere so we enjoyed outside away from most. Inside was loud and warm and just where you would want to be to celebrate a local team victory. The wood-fired pizza smelled so good.“

“It seems I could rate it higher because I always go there when I'm in town, partially for the outdoor patio space which in good weather is great and still covered for less fine days, and I go there mostly for the changing beer selection than the food so I'm probably not the best for rating that.“

“Buffalo Chicken salad was awesome!“

“Good food and great beer conveniently located near the Luna Laundrymat!“

“Great place to hangout for sports games or meet friends for a drink and dinner. The Prime Rib Dip is amazing!“

“Friendly manager👍 great menu“

“As bar food goes, this place ranks on top. Finding anything in Seattle that isn't over priced is difficult. Good fried seafood at a great price in a small neighborhood bar.“

“old school real people laid back crazy“

“Dog friendly and food was so good.“

“I am delighted by this establishment and sad to have not visited here sooner. If you're in the mood for a dimly lit, intimate space that feels worn from decades of love with walls that could write books from the stories they've heard, do yourself a favor and check it out.“

“Love this place!!! It’s a great neighborhood pub with everything you’d want—GREAT staff (Bekkah, Ellie, and Joe are big reasons why we keep coming back), fun trivia nights, karaoke, and special events about once per month. Wide variety of rotating taps, liquor, wine, hard seltzers, and clever Jell-O shot creations. Brunch on weekends and tasty apps/ lunch/ dinner fare with a kitchen that’s open late. This is a place where everybody knows your name. We’ll be back to see our people soon 🤩“

“I ate here recently and very much enjoyed the cozy neighborhood atmosphere. Judging by the presence of the regulars, it seems this place is an integral part of the Tangletown neighborhood, and the servers are all about making everyone feel welcome. The food and drinks were great, the staff was attentive, and the vibe was straight up fun. I’ll be back for sure.“

“We came here for lunch one day - I was especially excited to try their tuna melt and it did not disappoint. It has a kick and the bread was toasted perfectly. Absolutely delicious. My husband enjoyed their burger and chips. Really cozy spot, good drinks, would be great to watch a game and enjoy some food.“

“I love the Maple. Great food and drinks but it’s personal! I’d been gone 1.5 years and Mattie remembered me! ❤️❤️“

“A great combo: Fantastic Food and Super Friendly Service! 💕 LOVE PUB 70 ❤️ you will too 😃 The Clam Chowder it’s delicious, Wings perfectly cooked and Yummy, Chicken Sandwich is fabulous. Go have a great time and delicious dinner 👍“

“Fun on gameday. Good food and drinks.“

“Great place to watch the Sounders!“

“nice staff and they have a great collection of drinks on tap, including some that aren’t normally available in the US! the cards work pretty seamlessly for self-serve and definitely save a lot of time compared to a normal bar. prices are very reasonable per oz.“

“Our food at the Von's Woodinville was outstanding and received great service from Ella. We hope she will be adding a star to her collection.“

“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.“

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

“My favorite place to grab a beer in the city. Excellent selection of imported belgians, plus some local drafts to cover most tastes. The vibe is excellent; if you're looking to drink some strong beer and have a nice conversation where you don't need to shout, this is your place.

No food, but you can grab Carmelo's right around the corner and come back with it (and you should).“

“Coo lil local bar to grab drinks at. I have a great time every time. However most of the times I have been it seemed really busy but the staff was always friendly and as attentive as possible. Food is pretty decent and the DJ is always on point. They also have karaoke from time to time“

“Delicious food, came out hot and fresh in 7 minutes. Didn't once think I needed ketchup/hot sauce on the taters; they were full of flavor. Super friendly and welcoming staff.“

“Great pizza, great drinks and beer selection, and a cool, dark, macabre atmosphere.“

“Beautiful interior, fun, relaxed place, solid drinks, great bartenders.“

“Beveridge place is a great place to grab a beer. They have a chill area where you can read a book or play a game and an area in the back with darts, foosball, and shuffle board with many TVs playing sporting events. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. They only serve snacks for food, but you can bring whatever food you like it get it delivered to you. We need more places like this!“

“Great staff, great food, great drinks, fair prices! Leave your attitude at the door“

“Visiting Seattle came across this pub great place“

“Admiral Pub does such a fantastic job of bringing people together. The Taylor Swift listening party was lively, fun, and full of energy. What really sets this place apart, though, is the sense of community they’ve built. Everyone feels welcome, the staff genuinely cares, and it’s easy to see that they put thought into creating a space where people can connect and have a great time together. I seriously recommend it to anyone looking for a bar that’s about more than just drinks and I can’t wait to come back for more events soon <3“

“Waiting for a ride into Seattle. Stopped into Latona Pub for the first time to hang out, watch the game and wait for my ride. Service is excellent, house salad was very good, dressing was perfect, and nicely dressed. Chicken Pot Pie, even better. Everyone is treated like a regular and with total respect. Will definitely recommend if you're in the area!“

“Great place to come alone, with friends or big groups. Excellent service and great drink both beer and cocktails as they have a permanent and rotating selection. Happy hour food and drinks.“

“I had a wonderful time checking this place out, the atmosphere was very welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly & knowledgeable. I truly enjoyed trying a variety of their offerings showcasing great taste and quality. I would highly recommend this establishment to any beer enthusiast.“

“I was in Ballard for nearby concert and wanted to grab some dinner so stopped into MacLeod’s a Scottish Style Pub. The pub was adorned with traditional Scottish decorations…flags, clan crests, pictures…etc. I sat at the bar and asked the bartender for a recommendation, who suggested the Shepherd’s pie to which I gladly accepted. I also ordered a Scotch Egg having never had one previously. The Scotch Egg came first and included additional garnishes of cheese and pickled vegetables. It was delicious; actually, the whole dish was excellent. The pie came soon after. It was a perfect portion for a light dinner. The dish was good. Very rich and flavorful. Interestingly, the mashed potatoes were a little cold, but the filling was too hot. Also, I felt the dish needed more salt and pepper. After I seasoned the dish, it was excellent. The service was fantastic!“

“Passes the vibe check after maybe 3 seconds. Great staff, clean, old school. Love it.“

“Because they let the regulars just be regulars —“

“I love this place and the new owners make it even better. Good food, local fun and good drink prices, steak night Friday is hard to beat for the value for sure.“

“Great German beers, friendly service, nice place to chill in West Seattle.“

“Ducked in for some happy hour fish n chips which were surprisingly delish. Flaky fish, crispy fries, nice portions - the trifecta. Great service too, and a laid back vibe (divey but not grimy); nice enough for a dimly lit pub. Beers were a bit flat though, which kinda disappointed me.“

“I absolutely love Prost! My partner and I have been weekly regulars here for several years. The vibes, food, and drinks are impeccable, and the punch card reward system makes it fun to drink there. We’ve each earned a shirt, hoodie, wall plaque, and stein, and several badges on each of our steins! The bartenders are so kind and welcoming. Sunday movie night is the best!“

“The Philly Cheese steak sandwich was hands down the best in the State of Washington! Tre's Philly Cheese steak sandwich I will travel for over and over again! Well flavored, put together perfectly and the love was in the meat, in the sandwich it self! I enjoyed talking to the staff, they are very good people, that make you feel welcomed! I truly enjoyed being there!“

“I haven’t been to this ale house in many years. The wife used to come up here a lot before we met when she lived in the neighborhood. The English pub feel was great. Very homey with great friendly staff. The food was a very good. The salmon was moist and flaky with amazing flavors. The Root Beer was smooth and sweet just there was I like it. I would come back here again soon next time we are in the neighborhood.“

“The burgers are awesome! 💞“
