Reuben's Brews - The Ballard Taproom

I enjoy some of the other Reuben's spots more (more seating, different vibes, etc) but this is still a solid brewery location and hits the spot if you want one of their specific releases.

Great beers and friendly barkeeps. What’s not to like??

Staff is 10/10

Great beer and a great outside patio.

Really great brewery with the nicest bartenders and staff. Great tasting beer. Everything is clean and there is street parking available. A big thank you to Nate Madsen for his support of the local youth soccer club. Thank you for donating to our annual fundraising auction and helping local kids have access to affordable soccer programs.

This is my second time at Reuben’s, few years a part, and damn…they upped their incredible game.

Enjoyed a Fresh Hop Crispy and Crispytown, both were incredible my drinkable and perfect for any sporting event.

What blew me away was the food. The fried chicken sandwich was killer. Not what I expected, was more like a tempura fried chicken than the overly breaded southern kind which was a pleasant surprise. The fries, they are fantastic, great place for dinner!

Best beers in town!

Great brews and great staff! 🍺 🍻 They also really care about and give back to the local youth soccer community. ⚽️🎉 This is definitely a local business to support.

I’m not one to leave reviews, but I had a terrible time here. After spending hundreds of dollars, the bartenders were so rude and treated my friends and I terribly. You’re much better off at one of the other breweries in Ballard

Been coming here for such a long time, always great beer, and always a great atmosphere. Grace and Adam, plus the rest of the crew are fantastic! Keep up the great work!

Their Czech-style Pilsner is one of the best pilsner's I've ever had!

Great selection of beers and other libations (cedars, sparkling waters and soft drinks). Wine is available too. The permanent food truck has a limited but good menu. The fish was crispy, the chicken strips looked good as well. Plenty of space with a good mix of indoor and outdoor areas. The space was accessible. Street parking only. Great people working here too.

What a brewery for the Ballard neighborhood!

Reuben is a big name in the craft beer industry. Without a doubt, they always have great beer on tap. I want to focus on the facility a bit more:

- Wifi is EXTREMELY strong with great coverage. The speed is from outside in the courtyard.
- Ample seatings both inside and outside. Clean and spacious. There's even an option to do some remote work standing up on their barrel tables.
- Kitchen on site with full menu.

What not to love? Remote workers' heaven!

Reuben’s Brews is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, the welcoming and knowledgeable staff make you feel right at home. The variety and quality of their beers are outstanding, catering to every palate with expertly crafted IPAs, stouts, and lagers. Their newly renovated spaces, both inside and out, provide a laid-back atmosphere perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet evening. The food truck outside offers delicious bites that pair perfectly with their brews. Whether you're a beer enthusiast or just looking for a great place to unwind, Reuben’s Brews is a must-visit.

I don't know why, but I was expecting to hate this place. Outwardly it is kind of a hipster Seattle cliche and generally those places are more a pretense of quality and authenticity than the reality. Well I am here to admit, I was dead wrong. That was the best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had. Period. And I am both an aficionado and snob when it comes to such things. Fries were also legit and everyone was super nice. Thank you Reuben's for a great lunch!!
