This place was actually recommended to me by one of the regulars at Rider, so of course I had to…read moresee what the hype was about! We came here right after our nice dinner at Musang, and the place was already packed when we arrived. You can definitely feel that lively Belltown energy the moment you walk in with dim lighting, chill music, and that cool, slightly hipster lounge vibe that fits perfectly in the neighborhood. The entire staff was already in full Halloween mode, and the bar was decked out with festive decorations everywhere even the drinks were themed! Lol. It was definitely a fun surprise to experience that early in the season. The service was fast, and the bartenders were super friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. Drinks were beautifully crafted, strong, balanced, and totally on theme! Overall, Rob Roy totally lives up to its reputation with great cocktails, fun atmosphere, quick service, and welcoming staff. Perfect spot for a nightcap after dinner or if you want to feel like a local in the heart of Belltown.

Decent night club in Seattle. Came here on a Friday night and they had us wait in the first club…read moreuntil they opened up the main part at 11. Kinda annoying to be honest. The first club was playing terrible music with a bunch of 21 year olds standing around. The second club is pretty good. Music choice and energy is better. Just had an awkward space layout. VIP tables were not filled to capacity and drinks were pretty expensive. Solid night club but nothing special. Worth getting on the free guest list rather than paying the door fee.

In my experience, having a reservation gets you a great table, and walking in gets you a barstool. We had a res and were lucky to get a gorgeous set of chairs with a view. The covered outdoor area didn't look open to the public, so we were glad to have a spot inside. The bar is dark and moody, but still modern and vibrant at the same time. They have lovely, creative drinks. I got a pineapple tequila smokey cocktail and it was SO good! Drinks run about $20, but this seems more standard in seattle these days. They also have a lovely happy hour that we just barely missed, but would definitely come back to try. Such a great spot for casual conversation, good drinks, and a breathtaking view. Something about watching the boats and planes and the waves is just gorgeous. Note- the 20% tip is pre-loaded onto the bill, so any tip you add is on top of that 20%!

Great views and everyone should try it at least once and it's a great place to take out of towners…read more I went this past Sunday with a group of friends and while we loved the view, the prices are extremely expensive for what you get. You're definitely paying for the view. It was a great experience but I can find better deals that don't cost an arm in the leg. Also the music is terrible

The servers were very kind and were able to recommend drinks and offered blankets since it was cold the night I went. I got the vacation responder which was delicious and refreshing. The food is also outstanding - got the pepperoni flatbread and the artichoke dip with chips. I couldn't stop eating the chips and dip because it was so tasty. Recommend for a date night or catching up with the girls. I'll be back!

We ordered the whipped feta dip, the artichoke dip, the pepperoni flatbread and the prosciutto apple flatbread all of those were freaking delicious amazing. This place has so much potential if they improved their service. The service was so bad it took 45 min to get our first round of drinks. Our server was really nice but maybe stretched too thin bc she forgot to put our order in and threw away her paper that she wrote it on so she had to come re take our order. We had full intentions of ordering entrees from here but they were out of the main dishes. Just seems like the kitchen manager isn't planning well, staff doesn't have help from management. The only thing keeping this restaurant afloat is the view and the DJ

Old Fashioned - 4 stars Supernova Spritz - 4 stars…read more The lounge at the top of the Space Needle is all about the view--and that's the reason to be here. The drinks are nothing special and definitely not the highlight, but they get the job done while you take in one of the best panoramas in Seattle. The revolving lounge gives you a full 360-degree view of the city, so every seat feels like the best seat in the house. You can see all of downtown, the Puget Sound, and the peninsula across the water as the floor slowly rotates. It's an easy, relaxed way to take in everything without having to move around. Bottom line: don't come expecting craft-cocktail magic. Come for the incredible views, the unique experience, and the chance to see Seattle from above in a way that never gets old.

Who deserves 10 stars? The Loupe Lounge does!…read more Here is the story. If you have a long layover you can stay at the airport or you can be a rebel and venture into the city. I am a rebel with a food cause and opted to dine at The Loupe Lounge on my layover. Well, that was the master plan but coming from Maui, there were delays and my little mission was diverted. Abort? Absolutely NOT! Being a SUPER optimistic about everything in life, I rushed to make a 5:30 p.m. reservation at 7:00 p.m. I know, it was pushing it but for $150 a person I did not want this opportunity to go to waste. We arrived at The Space Needle and were whisked up to The Loupe Lounge. The host was not sure if they could still serve us so she rushed to get the manager. She must have gone back to NYC Fashion Week because here comes the manager looking like a whole GQ model, super trendy manager in the house! Well, he accommodated us, very cool of him. You're an Angel cause we were starving! The food was packaged to go, it was so delicious I'm super bummed that we didn't get to experience this in person. It was pretty in a box can't imagine what it would have been like in person! Beggars can't be choosers! The meal was fantastic! Caviar was packaged with ice! How accommodating and it passed TSA. Drinks were amazing and Andrea was the BEST waitress! Lucky we had her! Overall, if I'm back in Seattle this is back on my to-do list! Very cool experience and worth every penny! Honestly pretty cheap considering all you get! The drinks alone were worth it!

Deep Dive is my favorite cocktail bar in Seattle. The decor is incredible: Very speakeasy vibes,…read moreand every detail feels thoughtful and elevated. The whole space has this intimate, luxurious atmosphere that makes the experience feel special the moment you walk in. We tried the Japanese Breakfast, which is a savory cocktail and such a pleasant surprise. It genuinely has miso soup notes. It's very unique and creative. I also had El Boho (flavorful but not overly sweet). The staff are always friendly and very knowledgeable when it comes to recommending drinks. The prices are on the higher end, but personally I think they're totally worth it for the creativity and overall experience. This is the spot I bring all my out-of-town friends to because the ambiance, vibes, and drinks are just that good. Truly one of Seattle's gems.

I've been here a number of times in the past and this experience was different and something has…read moreobviously changed...maybe they are focused on tourists more than locals now? For one, the bar service was mediocre for my $26 cocktail. I get more conversation from the bartenders at the Red Onion.... And because they bartender wasn't paying attention, he forgot to put our food order in....probably didn't need it anyway, I need to diet. And then we get the check and they automatically add 22%...if you are a quality establishment offering exceptional customer service, you don't need to tell me what to tip...guess you are not. And they they have the nerve to ask me if I want to tip another 18%, 20%, or 25% when I sign the check on their Toast device... I'll go out for a quality cocktail experience at Needle & Thread, The Doctor's Office, or maybe the Red Onion, lol. But I won't be coming back here ever again.

Pretty dark place, but it made sense for the vibes. We were torn between the chicken jalapeno pizza and the pizza con carne, as they suggested. We just did a half and half, so that's what we did. The pizza con carne for me was a 3.5 out of 5. The chicken and jalapeno was a 3 out of 5. The pizza con carne had a good flavor, but it wasn't a great flavor, but the ranch was a must for me. The pizza con carne really increased the flavor of the pizza. The ranch did the same thing for the chicken jalapeno pizza. All the ingredients were very fresh, and the cilantro was very pronounced. I enjoyed that portion of it. It was a cool place, definitely great to go after hours. I would go again and try some of the other pizzas this morning. Overall, I liked it. The restaurant gets a three out of five.

The Fog Room is definitely worth checking out for the views alone. It's a great rooftop spot where…read moreyou can take in the city while enjoying a drink, and the atmosphere makes it a fun place to hang out for a bit. The drinks were tasty and well-made, which is really what you want at a place like this. The service also stood out--in a good way. The staff were kind and attentive, and everything came out pretty quickly, which made the experience smooth and enjoyable. The food, on the other hand, was pretty average. It's basically what you'd expect from typical bar food--nothing bad, but nothing particularly memorable either. If you're coming here, I'd recommend focusing on the drinks and the view rather than making it a full dinner stop. Overall, it's a solid spot for drinks, good service, and great views.

We incidentally went during the only week in December when they have their boozy eggnog. And that is what we got! 5 stars. Throw in a little nutmeg for a next level spiced drink.

Took off one star for their food.

Stopped into Shorty's across the street from Bangrak after lunch and WOW... this place was a blast…read more It's quirky as hell and I mean that as a compliment. They've got tons of pinball machines, but the thing I absolutely LOVED were the booths with the pinball machines built right into the tables. I've never seen that before and immediately thought it was such a cool idea. Definitely the kind of spot you stop into for a drink and then end up hanging out way longer than you planned. Overall just a really fun little bar with a lot of character. I'd absolutely come back.

Love this bar. We have been here countless times and it's great vibes every time…read more Lots of regulars. Smoking area in front of the bar. They have games, an ATM to get quarters to play the games, free condoms box above the quarter ATM. And my favorite part a Photo Booth! A great bar to me has a Photo Booth, street fighter, and private booths. This has it all. Love how we can have fun playing games, taking pics, choosing a song, and having great conversations in the comfy booths. Service is helpful. One night one of the games ate our quarters up and never worked so we let the bartender know and a few minutes later he gave us our quarters back. Staff is efficient and keeps the bar clean picking up any left behind glasses quickly. The bar is quirky and fun. Private and comfy booths, and lots of clowns everywhere. Sad clowns, happy clowns, creepy clowns, and more clowns than you can count! The bathrooms are unisex with plenty of stickers to look at. Always hand soap and toilet paper available even when busy. Hard working staff! Some areas of the bar like near the bathrooms have flashy lights and makes it feel like you're at the circus. The vibe is laid back and care free. Have yet to try the food so no words on that quite yet! Always a great time at Shorty's. Literally one of my favorite bars! Highly recommend!
