Had a great time here sipping on some beers with my mom while watching the padres mariners baseball game. Great selection of beer and nice ambiance.

This has become one of our favorite downtown hangouts before or after games and theater. The beer selection there is unique and delicious and offers choices beyond typical PNW IPA. Order food at the bar and grab it from the kitchen window when your pager goes off. Indoor-outdoor seating flows nicely with large windows and a couple doors and inside & outside seating areas to go between however you want. I was planning to stream tennis on my phone but since nobody else was really watching tv they happily changed the channel for me. I had a vegan reuben and fries with my beer and it was all great! We've started buying their brews from Fred Meyer too since discovering this place because we love out of town but really love it! Thanks for investing in a great vibe and bringing great brews and food options to downtown!

This is a nice, new quick-serve bar close to Pike Place Market. You order from a counter and seat yourself. They have a large selection of craft beers.

Citrus Hazy IPA

Great mellow vibe for a quick and fresh beer. In a great location for some relaxing walks afterwards. Wide variety of beers to choose from.

We stopped in for a beverage while we were waiting for our table to be ready at a nearby restaurant. We were relieved they allowed kids in the building. We had our 3-year old, an 11 and 13-year old in our group. We were able to find a big table for our group of 7 inside. They have a wide selection of beer, cider and seltzers to choose from. I tried the Juice Party IPA. It was citrusy and delicious. They have a few TVs that were showing football, so it would be a cool place to watch a game. We would definitely be back.

We hit up Reuben's Brews for burgers and to watch the Mariners game, and it was packed. And yet, our food came out lickety-split. Honestly, the kitchen must be powered by caffeine and good vibes. If you have not been to Reuben's, you order at the counter and then go find a seat and they will buzz you when your order is ready. The ambience is a a lively Gastropub environment. They also have heated patio seating for those crisp, Seattle days. The beer and cider selection is a glorious buffet of bubbly happiness. The staff were great letting us sample a few, answering our questions, and clearly knowing their hops from their barley. We tried the Winter Melon Vibes cider (refreshing, crisp, and possibly the spa water of ciders) and the Pumpkin Stout Latte, which had a bold espresso kick with a creamy finish that could make a barista blush. Now onto the Smashburgers. Perfectly cooked and seasoned like someone whispered culinary secrets to the grill. The sauce tied it all together like a love letter to taste buds. And the fries, Oh Em Gee. I'd buy the seasoning by the shaker if they sold it. Crispy, golden, dangerously addictive. As for sports fans: this is your happy place. TVs everywhere, so no matter where you sit, you've got a front-row seat to whatever game has your heart (or breaks it, depending on how Seattle teams are making you feel that day.)

Lots of seating indoors with some outdoor seating near the sidewalk. The place is decorated nicely and it feels really comfortable inside. They were playing great music. You order at the counter and it was not very organized as people were grouped and standing without committing to a specific line. The guy who took our order was not particularly friendly. My burger was delicious and my wife's chicken was just ok since there wasn't a whole lot of flavor. French fries were really good as well as my beer. My wife's mixed drink was lacking flavor though.

Staff is so nice, great energy! The location is great, with plenty of seating inside with a lot of TVs. The beer was great, with packs to go. The food was also good for a brewery with a low wait time.

Thank you to Derek & management!!! Our experience went from bad to fantastic immediately. Our food that was only a side dish was taking abnormally long, and we came to find out there was only one cook for a Seahawks home game. Staff was on this issue immediately. Derek was quick to not only get us a gift card for the inconvenience but ended up giving us a hoodie too! He was amazing! We will be back!

Classic Reuben sandwich
Kylie F.

Amazing Reuben sandwich, juicy meat, flavorful and the sauerkraut added a nice tang! Definitely fixes your craving for a good Reuben sandwich.

Jim H.

Beers are ok. Service is rough. You order at the counter but it's difficult when there is one bartender handling someone taking an extended period of time ordering and then the other just standing on the side staring at you and not doing anything, would have liked to order another beer, just not a welcome feeling... I'll pass on the service provided here.

Fish and chips
Brent

Decentd beer selection, fast and not too busy of a spot at Sunday on a 6pm. Pager style, and pick up food at the window. Fish and chips were hot and ready. Crispy with no soggy oiliness

Great patio outside Reuben's on 1st Ave.

Our server, Jadyn C., was incredibly helpful with his food and drink recommendations, and his directions on what to order were spot on. Everything we tried was delicious! We truly want to appreciate him for making our celebration extra special with his attentive service and great suggestions. The atmosphere was amazing!!

All the…read moreoutdoor tables were full when we arrived at 6, so we put our name on the list for inside and waited about 30 minutes. The oysters were the main draw for me, and they were totally worth the visit. Old Stove serves them with a savory watermelon sauce in addition to a traditional cocktail sauce--eaten together, it's a flavor explosion that I can't quite describe. We also enjoyed the garlic everything fries, which were delicious! We just had to try a flight to sample the brews. There are some really good beers available here, especially the Belgian blonde, citra pale ale, and the stout. I did not really care for the seasonal sour (grapefruit, I think)--to me, it just tasted like a sour and nothing more, but someone with more interest in sour beers would probably enjoy it just fine. Despite the busy night, our server checked on us regularly and was very personable, stopping to chat with us about the local sports scene. There's plenty to look at, inside and out. If you can snag a seat outside, you'll get to enjoy the waterfront. Inside, the decor is industrial but fun. Not sure if this runs all the time, but when we were there, the tvs were playing vintage beer ads, which was quite fun. They also sell some pretty good t-shirt designs. Overall, Old Stove Brewing is the perfect combo of good location, good food, and good beer. Definitely recommend a visit when in the Pike Place area!

I've reviewed a lot of breweries, and Fremont Brewing did not disappoint!…read more This cool spot has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. A truly legit outdoor space! They are kid and dog-friendly, too. We ordered an NA IPA (which they have on tap!) and their hop water (comes in a can). Both beverages were absolutely delicious. I love that this place is NA-friendly. They offer some light snacks and free pretzels, which is awesome for a brewery without a kitchen. There is a food truck on site, but it was closed when we visited. No worries, though, you can bring outside food, which is perfect since there are plenty of great restaurants in the area. I asked the bartender if they brew at this location, and he said they've moved all brewing to a different location in Seattle, but it's still super fresh and tasty beer all around. This is a spot worth visiting in Seattle or getting together with a large group for a few drinks. Plenty of choices for everyone!

Smattering variety of beer (1-2 offerings per "kind" of beer, non-alc included), so I'd say this place is more for vibes and location, rather beer-focused. That being said, the vibes were good! Random barrels and umbrellas, as well as maybe 10 or so picnic tables across the two outdoor patios (dog-friendly). Saw they also have private event space off to the side. Plenty of indoor seating as well.

Came here the past couple Fridays to get my weekend started and closing out a work week. The…read moreambiance here is intimate and the music isn't too loud which is great while sipping some beers. There are several beers and some ciders on tap from all around and all the ipa's I've tried here have been pretty decent. from there you grab your brew and have a seat at high top tables within the tap room. Again, the setting is mid-sized good for a couple groups of four and a few two person tables. Music is at a decent volume and is lit dimly making it decent for a date spot or just a place to have conversation without raised voices. Fridges line the tap room so you can mix and match beers, ciders and wines to take out which is cool. I like Bottleworks, I want to enjoy it more, but there are some issues holding me to 3 stars. The staff are...alright. Not bad, but I feel could be a little friendlier. Also they don't allow sample pours? This is a common thing at most breweries, but maybe it's because this is a tap room, but beers run a bit higher here - $8-9 a pour so that's annoying that you can't even try a couple. Lastly, they rotate things out it seems weekly. Some of the more popular options I suppose they keep but seems like a lot of turn around on the drinks so if you like something they have on tap, don't get too attached. Perhaps on subsequent visits It will improve, and I can boost the score here, but besides the decent beers and setting, it's just OK here.

One of the best bottle shops in the country!…read more I've had many of Bottleworks' anniversary beers in the past because they always team up with stellar breweries to make them.. but before today I have never visited the famous shop. It's smaller than I imagined it to be but every beer inside, from the draft list to the cans and the bottles are carefully curated by the staff. We grabbed a quick beer (Hill Farmstead, which is the first time I've seen this brewery for sale in the since I started this trip 6 weeks ago and Ive been through 4 states) Then we shopped for some cans, we quickly had to refrain from buying too much as the refrigerator in our van only holds so much. We ended up with a six pack and then grabbed a mystery 4 pack on the way out (mystery 4 pack was stellar). While we're shopping they opened a sour from Jester King and shared it with us. I honestly wish I lived a bit closer (Las Vegas is kinda far) because I'd be here everyday... Honestly, they have a whole cooler just for barley wine! The staff are very knowledgeable about beer and are very hospitable. Thanks for a great experience!
