Its close to my house and the bartenders are nice. You wont have a bad time, the regulars are welcoming, and its the best place to visit on the week

I've spent some time in Teddys. For a couple of years, I'd travel to Seattle for work, & Teddy's was a convenient easy spot to grab an evening drink before I retired for the day. They sell drinks, they have tvs, outdoor ping pong, indoor pool tables. Bartenders were polite and served me with no issue. So, plus: dependable spot that serves alcohol. There's also a smoking area on the outside patio for those who do that.
I see people calling this a dive. Maybe because this part of Seattle is becoming gentrified, Teddys is seen as a dive, but no, I don't' think its a dive at all. I think its an aging sports bar in a neighborhood that has high rise condos being propped up left and right. In some respects, that might be part of its charm. It's a throwback to what normal neighborhood sports bars were like in Seattle. But it's aging, and I don't think the employees are keeping things polished like they once did. That doesn't mean its a dive though.
My times in Seattle visiting this bar were in August. Maybe their is a busier time of year, but I found the bar to be really sleepy and not much going on. I somewhat judge a bar on the kind of people I meet and talk to, but I really never found like minded folks or interesting topics here.
I think this is a fine bar for grabbing a drink, especially if you don't feel like 'going out', but I wouldn't go out of my way to spend an evening here. Your experience is what you make it: bring the right crowd and you could have the time of your life. I wouldn't show up expecting the right crowd to already be there though.

The bartender who wears the hat all the time (probably due to premature balding) has a serious attitude problem. Like dude you are a bartender treat your customers better.

This bar is a stand out place. Tonight I got kicked out, i did not feel like I deserved to get Kicked out, but this place respected the situation that it allowed me to respect them. Please be respectful to everyone - they are trying.

Teddy's routinely allows someone, probably a bartender, to illegally park their motorcycle on the sidewalk in front of the bar. This motorcycle is also extremely loud and can be heard from blocks away every time its inconsiderate owner rides around. Don't patronize businesses that show such blatant disrespect and disregard for the safety and well-being of their neighbors.
Not dog friendly No food but you can bring outside food in Seattle freeze for conversation

My go to dive bar. Love this place, bartenders are super sweet and are always looking out for people’s safety. Run by good people, make good drinks, and the smoking area out back is pretty fun. Teddys is a Ravenna staple, I hope they stay open for many years to come
Fantastic old school bar to drink and play pool.
