    I love the idea of a Women's Sports Bar and I am very excited that there are now two locations. I've been visiting the Ballard branch for awhile, but immediately put this one on my to do list when I found out it would be opening. This location is also in a great neighborhood with many other things to check out nearby, it does have some parking challenges, but this neighborhood is very walkable and you might discover some other hidden gems nearby. I'm not super into watching sports myself, but have played sports all my life and I appreciate a place that recognizes that women are worthy of attention too. I do find myself glancing at the TV to see what is playing and admiring the skills of those who have gone on to play professionally. I usually bring my male partner and he seems to enjoy it equally. I will admit that I mostly keep coming back here for the food. I really like the Jackie's Baked Buffalo Dip, I've not had a dish like this anywhere. There are many other things I want to try, but I always end up getting this. I keep threatening to attempt to make it at home, but I never will. Drinks are also great. It's not too loud for being a sports bar. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. This location seems a tad bit smaller than Ballard, but still worth a special trip.

    Stopped by shortly after they opened for a Thursday Happy Hour. We knew they were coming soon but didn't realize they were open till earlier this week I couldn't think of a better place to have fill the spot of the old ale house. We stopped by for happy hour and enjoyed some very affordable classic cocktails and light bites of food - the menu has A LOT of variety. Staff was really friendly and was ready to talk about the menu and make sure we took advantage of happy hour while it lasted. I'd give them six out of five stars if they somehow got the ice tea from the old ale house - your mission should you choose to accept it, Rough n Tumble :)

    Such a cute space for a casual hang / dinner. It's seat yourself with plenty of bar seats and tables in the back (plus skeeball!) Great local drinks list and food was awesome ! I got the caesar salad with chicken and it was SO flavorful! Kale and veggies also seemed very fresh! Also they primarily play women's sports on the tv (professional and college) which I love!

    Loved coming here for the first time since it opened in Columbia City. The place is really inviting and attractive with plenty of big screen TVs and jerseys on the wall. Food was delicious and there were lots of microbrews to choose from. We especially loved the nachos and the kale Caesar we got as a side. The crowd was happy, chill, and diverse -- everyone was super friendly and happy to talk about the menu, what games were on, the neighborhood, etc. I felt completely welcomed, taken care of, and treated with respect. A super fun way to kick off a night cheering on the Torrent. A minor thing for folks who loved the fabulous Green Chile tuna melt served when this location was the Columbia City Alehouse: they advertise a green chile tuna melt in response to neighbors requesting it -- the tuna is the same flavor, but the presentation is quite different (open faced in a baguette) so just know that if you're looking for that same crunch and mouthfeel.

What they're known for is their Thai Sesame ribs. Well, at least the sauce on these were decent. Unfortunately, the meat was bone-dry. It was tough, chewy, and a slog to get through. Ribs are supposed to have enough fat. I don't know what went wrong here, but if that's what they're known for, that's not a good sign. The only good food item was the pub wings. These actually had a good buffalo sauce, and the meat was relatively juicy. The cheese curds were not cheese curds. They were ball-shaped mozzarella sticks. There's a difference. The tots were at least fine. Although lacking some crispiness Pretty much all the appetizers here are over $15 - so the only kind of good value is the tots for how much you get. Overall, you're going to need to buy a lot of drinks to get over how below-average the food is. 3/10

    Hours and hours walking around Seattle, we were hungry. Locals helped satisfy the hunger…read more People enjoying the bar side of the restaurant while our family of seven enjoyed the restaurant. By the time we had dinner, although hungry, it was past 8 and we needed to eat a little lighter and mostly had apps, so not sure how light that meal really was. Everyone enjoyed their dish. Because it was a bit cold, my younger sister got the fried chicken ramen. Fried chicken was not chicken katsu but fried chicken. The chicken was a bit salty while the ramen had a good amount of spice to it. Ramen broth was really good, especially on a cold night for me being from Hawaii. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was the cheese perogies. I enjoy perogies and haven't had any while on this trip to Seattle so a bit of a bummer. It was more like cheese ravioli. However best part of dinner was having the family together. And we ended the night on a good note. And the staff, so sweet. We appreciate you all for accommodating our family. See you all on our next family trip.

I do wish there were more protein added on since you pay extra for the protein but overall, this was a great salad. Definitely filling and worth it. Service: service is great very attentive customer service. Ambiance: I did not expect this eatery to be so spacious. There were people working on their computer. They were folks hanging out with friends for drinks and then there was others just so like myself reading a book or people watching.

    Came here for happy hour with some colleagues. The ambiance was nice and the patio was so nice with…read morefire pits. I ordered the rosemary popcorn, fried green beans, and cheese curds. These are the best cheese curds ever bc the batter isn't heavy like other cheese curds I've had. It's tempura battered so it's light and you can taste the cheese more. The jalapeño strawberry dip and ranch are good dips, but try them together and it will blow your mind. The fried green beans were okay. They did have a heavier batter on them and I wish they had the same batter the cheese curds had. The spicy dip was good! The rosemary popcorn was delicious! It had just enough butter and the perfect amount of rosemary where it's not overpowering. Once you get to the bottom, there's tons of butter and you just dip and soak it up with the popcorn. Also, PATTI was AMAZING!!!! She checked in on us throughout the evening. She's very sweet and I will be back bc of Patti!

Solid beer selection with rotating drafts, and if you're a soda guy, they use all Seattle Soda Company flavors (supporting local business). Had the brisket dinner tonight and that was a very pleasant surprise. Fall apart tender, amazing rich flavor, decadent sauce, with creamy mash. The seasonal veg was brussells sprouts which could have been roasted a bit more to crispy for me but that's a personal preference. This is way more satisfying than the food you'd get at your typical local bar. I've been to The Bridge a half dozen times and every time has delivered. Solid food. Good service. Great outdoor patio. Neighborhood vibes - the type of place where the bartenders know and recognize the locals, and the locals are regulars. I like that. It's a welcoming place, casual, laid back, and though I haven't been there during too many sports games, even when it's on, it doesn't seem to get too rowdy. Brunch is a must do, with options like the Benny flight. Definitely one of the less known brunch spots in my opinion, but even so, can still get busy so go early. Only reason I've done 4 stars is I've had a few times where service was a little slow. Would absolutely return again and again and have recommended to many friends. Keep up the great work team, may you be successful for many years to come.

I made a reservation ahead of time, but when we got there around 8 pm we realized we probably didn't need one because it was seat yourself and still pretty open. No complaints though, it made it easy to grab a table and settle in. The vibe was cool. Definitely a sports bar feel with TVs around, and as the night went on the DJ started getting set up which I can imagine makes it a fun spot on a Friday night for people meeting up after work or hanging out with friends. We decided to share a few things so we could try a little bit of everything. We ordered the catfish bites, lemon pepper wings, garlic parmesan wings, and macaroni and cheese. I'll start with the positives because the service was great. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, which always makes a difference. Food-wise, it just didn't totally hit for me. The catfish bites had a really tasty batter, but the texture threw me off a little. I personally like my catfish cooked a little harder, and these were a bit soft for my liking. The lemon pepper wings were a little too salty for me, and the wings themselves weren't cooked quite the way I like them. I tend to like my wings cooked a little harder, so these felt a bit soft and bulky to me (if that makes sense). The garlic parmesan wings were okay flavor-wise, but still similar in texture. The macaroni and cheese was okay. Nothing bad, just pretty standard. The menu itself has a good mix of comfort food and bar favorites like chicken and waffles, shrimp & grits, burger & fries....so there are definitely options to try. Overall, the service were great, the vibe was cool and I can definitely see this being a fun spot once the DJ gets going and the place fills up. The food just didn't quite land for me personally this time. I gave it 3 stars, but if Yelp allowed half stars it would probably be closer to a 3.5 for me. I'd still be open to coming back and trying a few other things on the menu.
