Absolutely the worst service. The bar tenders are always rude and extremely arrogant for no reason. I’m not sure who does the hiring there but for years in a row it’s always awful. It’s too bad too because the atmosphere and food is good. Worst service 3 years in a row.

With the name Octopus Bar, one would think maybe there’s some fried seafood here, but NOPE. I ordered the chum bucket, and holy salty. Easy on the salt, mate. The drinks were fine, but we had a short bartender serve us, and he was rude. It seems like he is like that normally—not very friendly, dude.
Tips: have fried calamari or clams as drinking food and smile yall.

What a fun vibe! We didn’t eat here, just grabbed an after dinner drink but the decor is super cool and the environment is welcoming. Super cute dive bar.

I live right next door and have come probably 10 times and spent ~$500 on drinks here.
This Saturday there was a bartender I didn’t recognize who had a horrible attitude. I hope she isn’t there in the future otherwise I might start looking for a new bar.

Had a really fun time playing trivia and met some cool people, but had never been carded this many times or as rudely in my entire life. Not sure if it was a one off, but my partner and I showed our IDs to the person checking at the front and as soon as I walked past him and he handed me my ID back someone from the bar screamed at us saying we didn't show ID...I looked right at him and said that I did, they just checked it and walked to find a seat so I'm pretty sure he heard me. A few minutes later he comes running from behind the bar to our table and yells at us to show our IDs from our seats and really aggressively grabs them out of our hands. I said again I had showed my ID at the front and he said "the guy said you didn't". He quickly handed them back and stomped away. I know I look young, but I'm 31...not trying to sneak my way into a bar at 6pm on a weekday for trivia. Very odd. Hope this doesn't happen again as that was really upsetting and we had a good time there otherwise, would like to return unless this happens again will likely find a new spot.
Ok, I walked into Octopus the first day they opened.. I was a several times weekly customer, chatted with the owners every visit, and loved it. Never an issue, brought 3 friend in tonight, after 2 1/2 years and unless you change ordering protocol I'll never step foot in here again. Two processes separate to order food and drinks, after 20 minutes of trying to order from the menu, after receiving our drinks we approached the bar, after attitude and argument we ordered. During the whole event, a woman came to the bar, ordered food and drink for her table, no issue. FOOD ordered. We left after one drink and the food and I used to spend hours here. I was tempted to just leave. Trevor, sorry, I was more than disappointed.

Reliable good time! I like the menu, service is always great. It's a bit loud indoors, but there is a patio if you want to have a conversation.

Went for their Saturday night queer event. By far the best queer space I've been to in Seattle so far. The bartenders? Very pretty, very mindful, very demure.

I expected some good fish and chips, but this place goes above and beyond. Everything made from scratch. The presentation looked like no other fish n chips ive ever had. Hand filleted fish, and the fries even sliced in a way that made this meal a 10 out of 10
