“The best Caprese Sandwich!“

“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.“

“Great food and great staff. Always delicious beers and cocktails. Great plant based options.“

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

“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.“

“Very cool bar near Greenwood with delicious drinks. The bartenders are absolutely amazing and keep the vibes up in the already neat atmosphere. They went above and beyond to make each drink special. Comfy seats, clean bathroom, and various snack options. It is a small venue so better for groups of 4 or less.“

“We stopped by and ordered the carnitas fries and crab rangoons—both were seriously delicious. The fries were loaded and flavorful without being overly greasy, and the crab rangoons had that perfect crispy bite with a rich, creamy filling. You can tell they use quality ingredients and really care about what they’re serving.

The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming—it felt like visiting a local spot where people actually care about their customers. Their energy really set the tone and made the experience even better.

We didn’t try the drinks this time, but they looked super creative and well put together—definitely coming back to try those. Plus, the location is perfect for enjoying a sunny Seattle day. Great food, great people, and a relaxed, fun vibe. Highly recommend!“

“This is a gem worth the detour. The dough—made from organic flour—is light, chewy, and full of character, with just the right blister from the oven. Their in-house marinara is rich, bright, and clearly made with care—no shortcuts here.

The fridge wall has a curated selection of excellent brews and rotating taps never disappoint. A locals’ favourite.
Thanks for all your hard work Ballard Beer Box!“

“Super fun hangout spot. Great shows downstairs.“

“Amazing food and staff was great!“

“Best crunchy spicy chicken I had, I love that they have only drumsticks, and the order is huge. The cucumber poke was so refreshing and the pickled radish that comes with the order is so fresh and crunchy. The chicken sandwich was on the smaller side for me so I will definitely stick to the drumsticks. Miduem spicy is just right and I like spicy.“

“Excellent cocktail. Good vibe.“

“Nataly is such a great gal! We were made to feel that they were happy to see us. We had a really fun night!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Overall this was a great bar. Great cocktails, service, and atmosphere. What was shocking to me and hesitate to come back are the $25 cocktails. They do have amazing cocktails but wowza with tax and tip and spending $30 per drink, my belly is happy but my wallet is not. Don’t regret coming though!“

“I don't know how else to say it, but this place is solid.
The beers are cold and tasty, the food is amazing, and the staff... They are the main reason I keep coming back.
I'm not sure who does the hiring there, but keep it up.“

“The fresh grapefruit vodka — a real thirst quencher“

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

“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!“

“No food service, but there is a street taco place around the block that I often visit before enjoying a few drinks here. Several varieties of imported Belgian beers are the specialty as the name suggests. Small groups, few booths, quaint and quiet. Not much has changed since I first dropped in 20 years ago. I should visit more often.“

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

“I love love love your ciders especially Excelsior. BUT EVEN BETTER IS THE APPLE PIE ONE! Please tell me there will be a six pack for those soon! They are incredible! I can only find them in the variety pack! Will there ever be just an apple pie 6 or 12 pack??? If not - what would it take for my entire family to convince you? Haha Thank you in advance. Huge fan. - Gina“

“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!“

“I’ve always loved honey hole and will be the first to say the two owners between the first and current were awful. The new-ish owners are slaying though. Quality right back up there to call it the best comfort food on the hill. Get mama lils on the gooch and be ready to sigh in pleasure.“

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

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

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

“Delicious, curteous, fast, and they offer sake flights. Very creative specialities, and the rolls are generously sized. They also clearly label where they use real crab and where they use imitation crab, which is a level of forthrightness I appreciate in a good sushi place.

Vegetarian options: Great vegan sushi rolls too.“

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

“Amazing home to the new monthly womxn's pinball tourney!“

“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!“

“It’s a punk rock bar. They have rainier!“

“Great little dive bar with pinball that lasts forever and lots of vegetation options. No table service but the people working counter service make up for it.

Vegetarian options: Vegan burger, vegan hot dogs, vegan chicken sandwich. Dirty pub food but it hits right. 10/10“

“Our favorite date night hang!“

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

“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.“

“Sevilla｜Special Milk Coffee This is a rare special coffee that is not sweet. There are some chocolate chips at the bottom. Overall, it has a mellow cocoa flavor with some orange fragrance.“

“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.“

“Amazing cocktail bar focused on the wide variety inherent in Amari - think things like Aperol and Campari and Montenegro and Averna and many many others, each unique, with a few loose styles. Jeff the bartender uses his encyclopedic knowledge of the range of Amari to craft inventive cocktails. Even if you aren’t normally a bitter palate person give it a go.“

“My wife and I had an amazing dinner. Food was fantastic. Service was impeccable and couldn't have asked for a better night out on the town and an incredible dining experience. I Recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for moderately priced but amazing food. You will not be disappointed, this restaurant is going to be visited by us again next time we're in town“

“Welcome back to the neighborhood! We missed you.“
