50 Best Bars near Shoreline

“One bartender, busy night, handled it like a pro. Despite the most uneven bar you'll ever encounter.
Solid bar food menu, only got snacks for a group not disappointed wish I hadn't eaten before to get a sando.

Solid neighborhood hang.“

“Great karaoke bar! Best in shoreline,WA“

“The best Caprese Sandwich!“

“Finally...a good Chinese restaurant in the north end. Great food, great service! We will be back!“

“Calm vibe. Many regulars from the Shoreline/North city area. .ost are friendly & kind folks. The crowd here is also diverse. The digital jukebox is usually playing. Great staff of lady bartenders (occassionally a male bartender) that mix great drinks. Beers on tap are out numbered by those refridgerated, so ask.
Several TV screens, generally airing sports.
Food is very limited to snacks like warm pretzels, corn dogs, breakfast sandwhich and a couple other choices besides bags of chips. Sometimes venders book dates and make pizza or burgers in the evenings. Othertimes the bar host and encourage potlucks.
Free & safe cell phone charging.
A covered outside table & seating oversees parking.
Many pulltabs inside to play.
It's an old building with nothing trendy and so it's considered a dive bar.

Parking: Respect the staff parking.

Kid-friendliness: Nope. Thankfully

Wheelchair accessibility: Parking lot, bar entry, bar area tables and poo table all are. Bathrooms NOT, they are down 1 or 2 steps and woman's room too tight to a squeeze.“

“Great neighborhood location to eat on Queen Anne.“

“One of our favorite places in Seattle to eat and chill.“

“We've ordered pizza from here 3 or 4 times so far, and it's spot on every time! Probably some of the most flavorful pizza we've had in Seattle, with fresh quality toppings and baked perfectly. Will absolutely be ordering from here again.“

“I discovered U Wine Bar on a walk in the neighborhood, and was immediately interested because it's a wine bar, but then even more interested because it hosts Magic events! It's a great space, good wine, good non-alcoholic options and wonderful people. The owner is also fantastic and friendly and will probably beat you in a Commander game. The environment is relaxed, casual yet classy and I highly recommend for wine and/or Magic.“

“This location is truly exceptional! The staff is outstanding, with Daniel standing out in particular. He went above and beyond to ensure my group had a fantastic experience. I highly recommend both the ambiance and the service, especially Daniel and his remarkable hospitality!“

“Rubys is a gem, quite literally and metaphorically, I guess. Tucked in an unassuming part of greenwood is a dog friendly, small seating, heck of a cocktail joint. Their menu and drinks change seasonally so it’s like watching all your favorite Game of Thrones character get offed. Sad, but necessary for growth and new characters. Anyways, this place is rad. Great service, great creative cocktails each quarter, and a friendly place to hang🤙🏻“

“Amazing atmosphere with great service. Drinks are presented beautifully and taste is 10/10! Food is great as well overall a great place to come in and play some board games, get some drinks and eat. Owner is very sweet and inviting definitely coming back.“

“Took my son and his friends for birthday. Fun experience for all! Thanks for a cool experience!“

“Wonderful place where meat eaters and vegans can delight in a delicious meal. Great wine section and craft cocktails. Quaint wine shop to bring something home or scoop a gift for a friend on the way to the party. Be sure to try the butter pickles!“

“Such a fun place to grab a craft cocktail and some pho. The drinks were very unique and the pho was surprisingly very good. We also tried the Tofu Dip and the spring rolls. The dip was delicious but very rich and the spring rolls were very fresh. We definitely ordered too much food but it was delicious and a fun experience.“

“Delicious cocktails and eats, friendly neighborhood place. cozy, when you can go inside!“

“Carl was amazing!! go see him in Tacoma!“

“The cocktails I had were amazing. Staff was awesome and very generous.“

“Love Rachel’s Ginger Beer! We always have a great experience here.

So many flavors to sample and Lily was so helpful in making suggestions for the ‘build a mule’ option. Get it to go or sit and enjoy with a modern diner atmosphere :)“

“Had a great time at this bar, the interior was really awesome, a spooky, eerie vibe! Loved it and definitely recommend stopping in for a drink!“

“Excellent cocktail. Good vibe.“

“Great pizza, great drinks and beer selection, and a cool, dark, macabre atmosphere.“

“My favorite place to grab a beer in the city. Excellent selection of imported belgians, plus some local drafts to cover most tastes. The vibe is excellent; if you're looking to drink some strong beer and have a nice conversation where you don't need to shout, this is your place.

No food, but you can grab Carmelo's right around the corner and come back with it (and you should).“

“Fun vibe and quirky unique decore. Friendly barkeepers. Separate pinball room with a good selection of machines and reasonable pwr play prices. Good food and some gluten free options for those who roll that way. Worth a stop in when you're in this neighborhood. Or a trip if you're seeking a decent meal, a fun decor, and a side of pinball.“

“A nice little neighborhood bar that's tucked away just off the main drag. One of the few reasonably priced options left open in the area. You'll see a lot of long time locals there which is obviously a good thing.

Would def recommend if you're in the area and looking for a drink.“

“Super cool vibes and mood lighting made Guillotine a nice cocktail stop before a recent trip. We sat at the bar and while I didn't adore our drinks (they were a bit overcomplicated for my taste) we had a nice time and I'd come back for another try.“

“The fresh grapefruit vodka — a real thirst quencher“

“Alice makes a wicked Paloma!! Go find out yourself!“

“Stopped in with a friend to play some pinball on Wednesday 8/23/23. Pinball map was pretty accurate regarding pins on location, and the games we played were in good condition, spaced out well, and most had cupholders or tables close by. There were the requisite 40"-50" TVs playing sports set up around the bar, but they were not the center of attention - this isn't a sports bar. There were 4-5 pool tables, and all were busy by the time we left for the Ice Box around 9 PM. Stiff well drinks, a decent selection of beer, etc., and decent prices for the area. I like the square wooden-framed ~25'x25' area around the bar, away from the pinball and pool - it was kind of cozy and they had a corner with a mic set up for...music or karaoke or stand-up, or something else I guess. New owners revamped this place in late 2021 or early 2022, and they kept the dive bar atmosphere, but really cleaned the place up. No yucky smells, and I didn't feel like I had to wash my hands after I left. I know that's not a high bar, but I what I mean was that it was a pleasant and unpretentious place to hang out. Didn't try any food - maybe next time. Sorry, no pictures this time!“

“Super fun hangout spot. Great shows downstairs.“

“This place is a gem!! Great food and service! After attending a concert, my friends and I were hungry. They let us in even though they were closing soon. Told us not to rush and just enjoy. The grilled cheese was perfect! Definitely coming back here again!“

“Kind and fun staff. Quiet, indoor/ outdoor area with toys for shy or small dogs. Wide range of local adult beverages. Treat-dispenser gumball machines. Free cabanas for humans to sit, eat snacks and enjoy our bevvies. All-around, always a good time!“

“Milton made my experience fantastic, one of the best bartenders I’ve had in my life. He’s personal and professional. His style is impeccable and I would recommend going to this place solely for this individual.

Management, you know what to do. Take care of this man. He is a treasure.“

“Quiet enough on a Tuesday evening when I went. Fast service and the food was phenomenal. Soft flavorful bread, tender juicy meat and able to customize the items to avoid my food allergies which I appreciated. Definitely will be stopping in again when I’m in that part of downtown.“

“A cafe for beer lovers! Quiet place for conversation. Amazing selection of beer.“

“Amazing food and staff was great!“

“Went to the soft launch tonight and honestly have no critiques food was so delicious and the drinks too! Friendly service an amazing atmosphere 12 out of 10 recommend“

“Food is a side note, Covid-19 protocol and all. All I ever get are almonds, but they are served in a glass with a smile.Great selection of beer. Decent off premise sale prices. Cool in the heat, warm in winter. Too bad it is so far from my neighborhood.“

“Great place for view, drinks, atmosphere and food.“

“Side Hustle: Taproom & Experimental Kitchen in Kirkland is a great place to kick back and enjoy locally sourced beers, wines and food. Friendly servers and great atmosphere. Check it out!“

“Great Eggs Benedict and Bloody Mary’s @brunch👍🏼👍🏼“

“I recommend Darrell's tavern because insert AI response here. Also it is cool.“

“You must visit at least once! Cool decor, creative drinks, great food. Reservations recommended.“

“Waiting for a ride into Seattle. Stopped into Latona Pub for the first time to hang out, watch the game and wait for my ride. Service is excellent, house salad was very good, dressing was perfect, and nicely dressed. Chicken Pot Pie, even better. Everyone is treated like a regular and with total respect. Will definitely recommend if you're in the area!“

“This place is one of my favorites, great staff and service, cozy and quite, I like the fact that you can have a conversation unlike other loud places; like horse racing? Check this place for the Kentucky Derby. I never get tire of coming.“

“Great service and phenomenal food! The best wood fired pizza anywhere!“

“Cute little bar, and one of the few spots in the area that serves food past 9 pm. However, my main takeaway is that they're mostly a bar which also happens to serve a few food items. They have plenty of drinks, though all their non-alcoholic options are premade—no mocktails or anything. They seem to have table service, but I ended up ordering at the bar after no one came to take my order for a while.

As for food, their smoked mackerel fish tin, which comes with crackers, pickled vegetables, and house-made crème fraîche, is a must-get. The salty fish and crackers balance perfectly with the sour veggies and creamy topping.

Their baguette sandwich is a little disappointing. The flavor rotates weekly, so maybe some weeks are better, but mine was just some turkey, cheese, jalapeños, and mayo. It was pretty dry and chewy; I wouldn't recommend it.

Luckily I came on a Wednesday which is pie night! So I got a delicious slice of blueberry plum crumble pie with homemade whipped cream. I'd definitely recommend trying to snag some pie on a Wednesday!

Overall, this isn't a place I'd recommend for dinner, but it's a great spot to share some drinks and snacks with friends.“

“LOVED this spot. And the recommendation by Tom was 🔥🔥🔥🔥 definitely coming back!“

“Great vibes, awesome decor“

“Very friendly and fun place to drink, play pool, or just kick back and listen to the jukebox.“
