I booked this experience 6 days in advance and did a lot of research to decide where to go as it was a special evening celebrating both my birthday and our wedding anniversary. The day before the reservation I was called and told that they had accidentally booked an event and I would have to move my reservation or come for a “quick drink only” making sure to leave by 7:30pm. My reservation was for 6:45pm. I was left feeling uncertain about how this would be and honestly very disappointed. The server was kind and friendly and we appreciated her hype. However, we felt like we couldn't relax. I would be willing to go back and try it again just not on a special occasion night. My husband had to finish work early and rush to get ready so we could accommodate this venue and not the other way around, as it should be. We weren't offered any sort of gesture of apology at all either. We felt unappreciated and more like a burden. Very strange attempt at customer service, especially on a celebration night for your guests.

Superb, magnificent, and excellent! Tavern Law is a true Seattle gem — cozy speakeasy vibes, incredible cocktails, and bartenders who make you feel like an old friend. Every drink is crafted to perfection. A must-visit for anyone who loves great drinks and great energy!

Such a great unique spot- we wish we had this back home! All servers clearly love their job and so much thought was put into everything and every part of our experience from the moment we walked in.

The creativity of making a cocktail based on your tastes is wonderful. The server was great about asking as many questions to get each of our tastes dialed in, to create something delicious and unique. Changing one ingredient enhanced the next cocktail. The food was yummy, the balsamic glaze on the tomatoes was divine. The Mac n cheese needed some salt in the pasta itself but very creamy. Wonderful service.

Needle & Thread was so lovely. The service was excellent. The bespoke cocktails were my favorite. The bread pudding was phenomenal. The only thing I would recommend is bringing out each persons dish at the same time. I got mine a lot sooner than my partner.

amazing experience ! the team was very helpful making the surprise birthday event more special - and the custom cocktails were a HUGE hit!

It was a very unique experience. They truly do not have drink menus and just ask for what you like in general and craft the perfect cocktail for you! Thanks Dana for great hosting and Jacob for amazing cocktails! P.S. if you want to get in on a Saturday evening, start booking early, preferably as soon as you can (6 days before as per policy). Bookings fill up fast for the weekend.

Went to needle and thread, fun different experience but did not really feel welcome. Made the experience awkward. Like sorry I decided to come here do you want me to leave???? The decor was nice tho

It was the best experience at a speakeasy I've had in a long time. Lauren was extremely knowledgeable, personable and absolutely amazing!! I wanted to put them in my pocket to have around all the time. Thank you for an awesome time!!

Delicious cocktails! If you do a dealer's choice its so worth it, the bartenders are knowledgeable and talented at whipping up custom drinks. The menus have fun and imaginative selection with something for anyone! Great service and a fun vibe!

Will not be coming back.

I used to stop by occasionally for a drink and some food when I lived in cap hill. Came back here recently.

Either I somehow completely missed this in years past or this is new: a 20% service fee on the bill plus a 3% fee for using a credit card. The 20% isn't even an automatic gratuity, it's a fee. Sorry to our server, but I was not adding a tip on top of that.

Needle & Thread...perfectly curated cocktails based on your desire at the moment. Food was great but the cocktails steal the show. Atmosphere fits.

Soooo cute!! Loved the vibes and the drink was amazing too. They have a speakeasy on the second floor overlooking the general bar area, but reservations required!
