50 Best Bars near Shoreline

“The best Caprese Sandwich!“

“Locals bar. Friendly neighborhood joint. As a local I can say we're happy to have it! Patio, food, TVs, good service and food, what's not to love? Noise level depends on the night, sometimes this place is like a cathedral, sometimes it's poppin'. The Cabin is nestled in a quiet neighborhood so parking might be an issue but don't make it weird and it won't be.“

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

“Great karaoke bar! Best in shoreline,WA“

“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.“

“My partner and I came in for our first ever Magic: The Gathering pre release event (beginner’s night) and had a really fun time! The owner Elijah has curated a super chill vibe and atmosphere, and one that is very welcoming and inclusive. I will definitely be coming back for future events!

Also a great selection of beer and wine!“

“This place is next door to us so we obviously order it pretty often. I've always gotten the pepperoni or the margarita. Today I tried something new the chicken tikka masala pizza and it was perfect. It's like eating the meal in slice.“

“Amazing food and staff was great!“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“A tiny Asian spot off the Burke‑Gilman that I always assumed was a coffee shop. We walked in and got pleasantly blindsided. The Brussels sprouts were the star! Crispy, saucy, with bacon! Our one dish came out huge, and everything on the nearby tables looked just as tempting. They’re still setting up their new bar area, so no taps yet, but the place already feels like a low‑key gem hiding in plain sight. The waitress was a sweet delight too! I’m going to go back when I’m not riding my bike and I can be full right out the door.“

“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🤙🏻“

“Home of the Bills Backers of Seattle. All Buffalo Bills games televised and watched with the Mafia. Everybody is welcome! Whether you live in PNW or just passing through town, come catch a game and support this awsome establishment. Beautiful Lake Union is right across the street.“

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

“I really enjoy the veggie corndogs, which are a pretty rare option to find at bars. They give you three, so it's a hearty dish. Service has been good each time as well. Caveat that the seating is a bit awkward, when they get busy and only two people are taking up one of the giant tables. But recommend grabbing your beer and killing time with pinball until a seat opens.“

“Great food and drinks plus excellent service… What’s not to like? 🥳“

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

“The agave drink from Rachel’s Ginger Beer was an absolute lifesaver and the highlight of my visit! It was incredibly refreshing and perfectly balanced. I added a splash of tequila, which turned it into the most delicious, vibrant cocktail.
If you order the Ma’ono chicken, do yourself a favor and grab a drink from Rachel’s Ginger Beer to wash it down. It was genuinely the best part of the meal. Whether with or without the tequila twist, their agave drink is a must-try. I’ll definitely be back just for this! Highly recommend.“

“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!“

“TL;DR Large selection of unique Belgian beers in a relaxing environment. A departure from what you’ll typically find in the neighborhood.

Great beer. Great service. Great ambiance. I’ve been stopping by here after work the past few weeks to bug the owner and learn more about (what I now know as of reading this listing to be selectively) Belgian beer. The owner is nice, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. This bar, much unlike the rest of its Olive Way counterparts, is a great place to relax and wind down after a long day. If you want a laid-back crash course on Belgian beer this is your spot.“

“Great ambiance, nice food, good drinks.“

“Excellent cocktail. Good vibe.“

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

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

“The food is so good you'll punch your own face.“

“its a fantastic lovely place to be.“

“We found this place on a walk around the golf course today! Somehow we wandered off trail and found it.
Great beer, a pool table and local dive bar vibe.
Apparently they’ve been open for 97 years!
Check it out, go for a pint and a game, and support a treasure. Gentrification has closed so many good dive bars. It’s nice to see one hanging on. We will be back!!
A fun afternoon adventure we didn’t plan on, that affirmed our faith in humanity.“

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

“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!“

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

“The fresh grapefruit vodka — a real thirst quencher“

“It’s a fixture of the neighborhood. You can go for a burger and beers to get the standard pub experience, but they also have much more than that. Their rotating menu is truly fantastic, from high end appetizers to fresh pasta to comfort food. It’s much higher quality food than I’d usually expect from a corner pub. I personally am not a fan of the live music because it makes it hard to have a conversation, so I prefer not to go on Fri/Sat evenings. But if you’re into that sort of thing it’s a good vibe.“

“Relaxed place with very friendly staff and patrons. They have a drink for every budget, from cheap well drinks to get drunk to high end cocktails. I've had great connections and dates here. If you miss guillotine you're missing out on one of the better bars in seattle.“

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

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

“PST has some of the best cocktails ever! Nothing else has even come close to what I’ve tried here.

Some cocktails do include ingredients like beef broth or eggs, so make sure to check and ask questions if you’re unsure.

The staff is incredibly cordial and always happy to explain, even though they barely seem to get a moment to breathe. It’s always busy, yet they stay friendly, smiling, and welcoming.

I absolutely loved their craft cocktails. My favorite from my first visit was the “Tamarind Ice.” Such a fun, tangy drink. The vegetarian banh mi sandwich was amazing too. The server was very friendly and made the experience even better.
Highly recommend and I will definitely be visiting again!

Walk into Pho-Bac and take the stairs to go to PST upstairs.“

“Wow! Perfect dining experience. Friendly staff, amazing food and drinks, fun atmosphere, I highly recommend this place! 🙏“

“I've been going to Amaro for years and it's consistently a solid choice. The ambience is perfect for gathering with friends or a date as it's easy to have a conservation without having to compete with loud music or tables that are too close together. The food prepared is well with quality ingredients and desserts are made in house. If you enjoy the traditional Italian preparation of calamari, this is one of the best renditions I've had outside of Italy. It's a starter, but I've occasionally ordered a double as an entree. Amaro is very accommodating with substitutions. Last night my friend didn't want risotto with her pollo arrosto, so they gave her a vegetable medley instead and it turned out beautifully. For a dinner house of this type, pricing is quite reasonable. The service is attentive and sincere, but often a little disjointed. They serve Caffe Vita, which is my favorite local roaster“

“The service at HineyHole was amazing. I have an extreme dairy Allergy and they accommodated my allergy and gave recommendations. The food was as good as it looks online! The atmosphere was light and energetic. Hands down I ha e found my spot when I visit Seattle! Thank you for the great experience.“

“You get your food elsewhere eat n drink there 🤘🤘🤘“

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

“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!“

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

“The broccoli 🥦 !! Always a favorite“

“Food is good not really amazing. The whiskey selection is huge, amazing. The drinks are unique and the happy hour offerings are really good if you're just in the mood for a snack.
If you're a drinker or into whiskeys this as the spot.“

“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!“
