I love this place I haven't had a bad beer here yet.

Good beer, Terrible food . Was there for wedding reception and with 40 people to feed they took and grilled orders one at a time so guests all had extremely long waits to get any food. Kale salad and corn salad were gooey from being overdressed and kale had not been deveined so was basically too tough to eat anyway. Clueless about how to host a party.

Ken is one of the best bartenders and bar owners I've met not just in Seattle but in the US. Well crafted beer selection and incredible modern saloon feel. Best beer bar in Seattle

Fantastic place, great beer selection, warm staff, and damn good peanuts

Taylor Black

Cozy neighborhood pub with an incredible, intentional selection of local and international brew. Free peanuts and a floor covered with shells is an added bonus.

Great beer, good talks, very diverse. Yeah!!!great location with some solid beer. Chill and relax meet folks with a diverse background knowledge. Great sour beers definitely recommend this place.

Weird beer, friendly bartenders, and some random movie playing without sound in the background. It's a pretty small bar but it didn't feel unsafe from a COVID standpoint. I highly recommend the shelled peanuts. Whatever brand they sell tastes like you're eating peanut butter. You just chuck the shells on the ground - think of it as padding in case you fall.

I'm lucky as hell to have this spot up the road from me. Weekly, I'm impressed with the draft curation and bottles/cans to go selection. Covid has resulted in adjusted hours. A very enjoyable, chill drinking spot with cozy-dive ambiance.
