1. delicious pretzels 2. 1 liter beers 3. the brezel sandwich is amazing! however it's a little expensive (food wise) and there is no happy hour. it's a great place to kick back with a beer and a pretzel and watch soccer, though. read more

Prost is an excellent German bar. They have lots of great German beers on tap. They also make sure they have the correct German glass for each beer, since the proper glass adds to the experience of the German beer. The food menu is VERY limited, and you generally would not go here for dinner. However, if you want some good drinks and a great atmosphere, this would be great to go. The bar is kind of small, so its tough to get a table sometimes at peak hours. I've generally sat at the bar since that is usually available. The staff is always friendly. read more

Prost! Tavern - Bier - German Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Good beer- meh food. I ordered curry wurst and I don't recommend it. Call me uncultured, but I've never have had curry wurst that wasn't cooked. This wasn't cook. It was the equivalent of eating a cold hotdog w ketchup on it. Very gross and disappointing. The sandwich my friend ordered seemed 10x better in comparison. Service is legit and beer is very good here. Don't not recommend, but just don't get the curry wurst read more

German beer! Service was friendly, and the beer was good. We hadn't eaten at this nearby establishment becuase of the lack of vegetarian options. The cheesy pretzel was quite good. If they added some field roast sausage option, We would be back all the time! Kids ok until 9! read more

Fantastic! The ladies working there are the best! Beer is legit! I effing love this place! I take everyone I can to Prost!

After a day of hard work on Friday, we decided to treat ourselves and headed to Prost! a German-style pub on Phinney Ridge. Our friends absolutely love this place, so we met them there for drinks and dinner. I had a delicious bloody mary and we all ordered what our friends say is the best thing on the menu: the Brezel Sandwich. It features thinly sliced German Cervelat and Jagdwurst with mixed greens, red onions, cheddar, and swiss on a Morning Star pretzel roll, toasted and topped with horseradish aioli and stone ground mustard. I'm telling you, this sandwich is beyond delicious. My friend and I are both obsessed with sauerkraut, so we had the brilliant idea to order it as a side and add it to our sandwiches... A heavenly choice. I've been to Prost! a few times now, and it's always been full of people (but not packed), and the food and service has been great. read more

Christina with a K was the greatest bartender ever. She knew the beers we were looking for. She is actually German and really made us feel like we were in a German bar. We loved talking with her and loved their inviting enviornement. Very nice, very authentic. Best bartender ever. read more

Great place to watch World Cup soccer! Festive friendly crowd and always a good beer and great time! read more

Prost! Tavern - USA vs Portugal starts at 3pm! - German Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I am a beer guy who likes ales. However, this is the place for someone who likes German style lagers. The service is fast and friendly. You may have to wait for your beer a bit. I liked how the bartender waited for the foam to go down before finishing the pour. Added to which, the different receivers for the beers added to the place. Ceramic mugs for the beers was cool. I did not try the food. Given my positive beer and service experiences, I should go back. read more

6 stars! This place is such a gem! Appears to be a neighborhood bar with patrons who are familiar with each other; although such a casual and welcoming atmosphere. If you are looking for a place to have a great meal and German beer you need to come here!! Both bartenders were super sweet, beer selection was great, and the food was piping hot and delicious. read more

if you're in search of amazing german beer, sausages and pretzels, look no further. this place has an amazing set up, reminiscent of a traditional beer hall. and it's a sf giants bar - what could be better?? read more

Prost! Tavern - German Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Simply put the best environment to enjoy beer and good company. The classic beer hall decorations, wood furniture, incredible staff and perfect beer cannot be beaten. This recipe exists in all the great beer cultures in northern climates. And what it produces is an undeniably comfortable place to laugh, drink and enjoy life. I hope prost never changes I would recommend it to those with a deep love of conversation and classic beer. On a side note don't come here with a group expecting to order full dinners. The food simply augments and supports the beer, it's not a restaurant. The bartender has to cook your food so be cool and enjoy your perfectly poured German beer. Prost! read more

I was thrilled to find this place. I stayed in Germany awhile back and easily became addicted to the good strong german beer. I was told about this place by a co-worker, and I am ecstatic to be able to enjoy the good german brews again. OUTSTANDING! I had a dark chochlatey STRONG beer that had a kick to it. I'll tell ya. Would have loved to stay for more but I was buzzzzed. I'll be back FOR SURE. read more

Great neighborhood bar featuring excellent German beer. The place tends to get extremely crowded quickly. I like going in the early evening when the tables are full of friends and an older gentleman reading a thick book and working on his bratwurst but there's still a few seats at the bar. Otherwise, if you snag one of the two outdoor tables you're a lucky one and set for the night. Free pretzles to snack on and a couple of dart boards on the raised platform offer endless entertainment. read more

I had another Winter ale here, called Erdinger Weissbier. A nice tall dark wintery pack on the pounds before you freeze to death kind of thing. This is truly a nice bar with serious beers and serious special beer glasses. I saw many bearded males drinking courses of flagons of the winter ales. One can merely aspire. read more

I had the best time at Prost on Saturday. Prost is real small, so get there kinda early...my friends and I snagged a table when we got there a little after 9:00. Great selection of German beers on tap. In true German pub fashion, we made friends with the table next to us and all shared a giant boot. The way a pub night should go...also, what's not to like about pretzels and hefeweizen? My only complaint is that the place is too small so it's hard to get a table, but you just might be forced to sit by a stranger which could end up being fantastic. Also, their ladies bathroom is pretty clean so that's a bonus. read more

two kinds of mustard. need i say more? what's that? oh. ok. right. i guess that needs some context. sure. well...ok - so i'm referring to the bratwurst here. which comes with the aforementioned two kinds of mustard. and a mountain of sauerkraut. and - no bun. you do get some bread with it. so i suppose you could fashion a bun from the bread - but i think it's better just to go after the brat with a fork and knife. and it's an outstanding stomach-prepper for just 6 bucks. the beers on tap rotate here - and they are all impossible for me to pronounce and/or spell - but if you're a fan of german beers - this is your spot. it's also one of the few establishments that forces you to say the name with a little emphasis: prost! i can think of only one other spot off-hand that mandated the exclamation mark, and that was of all places - the boise public library. right there on the side of the building it says "library!" no joke. next time you're in idaho, check it out. i think it was an effort to make reading and thinking sound fun. i don't think it worked. bush has been elected twice. read more

Had an amazing experience at Prost last night. The bartender Cristina is an awesome German lady from Stuttgart. The quality of her service is unparalleled and she helped add an extra element of authenticity to an already authentic German Bier bar. If you enjoy well poured German biers, Prost and Cristina are not to be missed. read more

The unofficial "official" SF Giants bar. They even have old stadium seats. Tons of killer German beers in traditional mugs, great bartenders, traditional mustards and bretzels. A weekend must. read more

If you don't like German Beer then Prost! (German for cheers) is not going to excite you. However, if you do appreciate the subtle delightfulness of one of these brews imported from the kigdom of beer and served in that bier's appropriate glassware, this place will be your heaven as it is mine. A friendly neighborhood bar with interesting folks to talk to is my idea of a good night. Not all of the bartenders are as attentive as they might be, but after the first beer or two, concern over such matters wanes. Plus, many of the bartenders are excellent. read more

Ah, German beer, brings back memories of living in Berlin. Not too cold, not too warm, deep and dark, but you've gotta be in the mood. This is a decent neighborhood place for a beer and to meet up with friends. They have a good selection but pretty much stick to their theme. If you like giant, hot, fresh pretzels, you'll love these. read more

An absolutely great little German pub. I've only been late on weekdays and can imagine it getting packed on the weekends. The only downside really is the location, if I lived in Phinney I would deffintely start work on getting a Prost Members Only jacket, the last reward from their loyalty beer punch cards, which have 50 beers per card! read more

Used to go here when they first opened and I loved it, but I don't think I am cool enough any longer. About 6 months ago I went in, ordered a beer, got something other than what I ordered, bartender said I was incorrect. The guy next to me said she did the same to him. Then my girlfriend and I went in, sat at the bar, and the TWO bartenders wouldn't even come over to say hello even though they stared at us multiple times. I honestly am done. Customer service has become extinct at this place. I also will never go back, Seattle has a lot more bars and ones that will treat their customers better. read more

This place is awesome! I love their giant liters of delicious German beer!

I'm not sure how it happens, but every time I go to Prost, there's always a table just getting open when I arrive. And I always have a good time there. A favorite place in the neighborhood. read more

Good vareity of German beer. Very packed, Very lively, and free Ms. Pacman. Yes you dont have to negotiate the price with her or anything cause shes free, although my thoughts are is its just pacman cross dressing with a bow on. read more

I have tried to go enjoy the fantastic beer selection here at least 10 times. The place always feels right. The decor is excellent. The whole vibe is just right and then I sit there for 10 minutes before any acknowledgement. Nobody says "hey welcome!" or "be right with you." Instead I get nothing. No eye contact. Nothing. It happened again just now. I was so ready for a cold delicious beer. I sat right at the bar and the dude was swamped with 6 people in the place. I have lived near that spot and watched in change owners 5 times. I want to like Prost. I really do. I'm a regular looking Joe from Phinney Ridge. I wasn't pushing a shopping cart or anything unusual. I just don't get it. read more

Gag. I don't much like traditional german beers, or giant smelly pretzels (in fact, I almost have a phobia over pretzels) - I was here about 5 minutes and wanted to leave. You might find it your scene, but it's definitly not mine. read more

Just went here for Monday night trivia this week, and was pretty happy with it! Its a little small, so we were sure to show up about an hour early (next time, we'll try for even earlier!). Beer selection was great, crowd and service was friendly, and trivia was fun. I'll definitely be going back! read more

I love it here! A narrow, wooded place full of German beers and walls decorated with a moose head and rows of "stein club" steins and plaques honoring those who do a lot of drinking at Prost. The bar has a warm, intimate vibe and the staff have always been super friendly. Full disclosure: I haven't had any of the food (yet) and I've only been on Monday nights, but after a handful of visits I'm just such a fan of the Monday scene. Monday is their trivia night and trivia at Prost is a breed of its own. It's not run by any kind of company (like Geeks Who Drink, etc.) but rather by bar patrons, on a voluntary/rotating basis. Trivia this way is awesome! A little bit different each week depending on who's hosting, but always efficient (it doesn't take 3 hours) and no-gimmicky. Every player puts in $2 and the winning team gets the money. Second place team wins a "boot of beer," and that boot is BIG (2 liters, I believe). Tends to be 4 rounds of 10 questions each and teams correct each other's answers after each round (again with the efficiency!). Not sure I can ever go anywhere else for trivia. :) read more

I've been here twice, including once on a Saturday night with at least a dozen people, and didn't have a problem getting a seat or service. The selection of beers is expectedly German-only (or at least German-style), but they do have a full range from very light to very dark. The Spaten Optimator Doppelbock is dark, rich, and delicious. At $4.75 for .5L, the price is pretty good too, though you may have to point that out to the bartender, as we had to. The only food I've tried there (besides the ubiquitous mini-pretzels) is the bratwurst with sauerkraut, and the sauerkraut is absolutely amazing! Even if you think you don't like sauerkraut, there's a very good chance this stuff will change your mind. The bartender did seem a little surly when we first arrived, but she warmed up eventually and even made a joke. It was unexpected and caught us off guard, but we appreciated the effort and were touched. ;-) If you have several careful friends (so you don't break it and lose your $50 deposit), you should try drinking from The Boot, aka Der Stiefel. (Contrary to what movies like Beer Fest would have you believe, it's not actually called Das Boot.) read more

Finally able to snag a table at Prost on a Friday night, and I think my opinion might have been more positive before actually drinking here. One person was working the entire bar, so it was slow, crowded, and there was no table service to speak of. That might've been understandable, given the severe understaffing, but what's Prost's excuse for the inconsistency between the menu and what's actually on tap? One example: boyfriend ordered an Erdinger Dunkelweiss, only to be told that they don't have any Dunkelweiss on tap, just this dark hef from Hacker Pschorr. There wasn't any Hacker Pschorr beer on the menu, and no Erdinger on tap -- and call me crazy, but isn't Dunkelweiss...a dark hef? Also, the bartender just assumed the size of beer we wanted and started pouring...thank god she went with .5 Liters, I guess. Definitely, definitely recommend Die Bierstube over this place. read more

Friendly service, German bric-a-brac, good beer and hot pretzels.

The waitress at Prost was terribly mean to us. We came with our close friends one of which has Asperger's syndrome. She discriminated against us because of this. We will never visit Prost because of this waitress. She has red short hair, bangs, a nose piercing and a tattoo on her ankle. She refused to give us service even though we were polite, asked her her recommendations and she replied, "it doesn't matter what I think because I'm a different person". Get better staff Prost, because after meeting this terrible waitress, I don't plan on returning or telling my friends to go to your restaurant. I wish I knew her name because her discrimination toward my friend with a disability was completely uncalled for. We're all responsible hard working adults. I will continue to tell everyone about this experience until this bar gets closed down or she gets fired. read more

I can only vouch for the fantastic beers and the vast selection. A must for any beer drinker, especially those who love German style lagers!

Service was perfect. The drinks were tasty. It was not over priced and the ambience was exactly what I imagined it to be. They'd get a 5 if they had happy hour! read more

Friendly service from Jessica is always appreciated. Excellent beer selection!

Looking for a welcoming friendly neighborhood bar? This is not it. Waitress/Bartender was distracted and dismissive. There was definitely a "You are not a regular I and don't care about you" vibe. Family friendly usually doesn't bother me but multiple mothers walking around bouncing their babies non-stop is too much like a being in a daycare. read more

We didn't eat here but stopped in for late night drinks after dinner. If I remember correctly it was a weeknight so it was a little quieter and we had no trouble getting a table. I liked the place and it seemed like a great little neighborhood bar. Great beer selection and HUGE mugs, everything that you could want in a German bar. read more
