First visit to Smarty Pants. In a great spot in Georgetown with other great local businesses next door or across the street. Sat in the outdoor area next to the building which was nicely shaded. Picnic tables have fixed benches so not the best for larger/taller people but there are free standing tables outside as well. You are sitting right under a highway entrance so it could get loud. Server was very friendly and attentive. Food was wonderful. Went on Sunday and brunch items were available as well as the full menu. 5 people in the group and we all got something different and we all cleaned our plates. So delicious read more

I was wanting a good sandwich, so my friend recommended we drop into Smarty Pants. The sandwich was delicious and ENORMOUS. I had to cut it in half and still couldn't finish my portion. The fries were thinly cut and perfectly fried. It's definitely a dive bar vibe; this is exactly my scene. Friendly and attentive bar tenders were lovely, space was clean, everything was great. read more

We were referred to Smarty Pants by a family member and are so glad we decided to give it a try! I originally planned on ordering the Club Pants sandwich, but I asked our server what the most popular sandwich was and also what her personal favorite was. She recommended the Pit Boss, and I'm so glad I took her suggestion, it was absolutely delicious and definitely worth it! The flavors were amazing, and the sandwich was packed with quality ingredients. My partner ordered the Philly sandwich, and it was just as delicious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. The service was outstanding, our server was so friendly and attentive, even though we chose to sit outside in the 95-degree heat. We really appreciated her great attitude and helpful recommendations, which made our first visit even better. We'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Smarty Pants is a cool, no frills restaurant and bar in Georgetown. Located in a really cool area next to some awesome stores. There is no frills here- standard seating, typical bar. Food is fantastic- myself, and the three people with me all loved our sandwiches. Italian beef was delicious- I would pass on the potato salad. French Dip was scarfed down- one of my husband's favorite French dips- in his words. We all shared the chips in queso as an appetizer- was shocked how spicy it was, but was very addicting. My only reason for 4 stars is that two of ordered Moscow Mules and we were brought what we thought were Whiskey Sours- definitely not what we ordered. Our server seemed to be the bartender and server- so she was busy! Overall highly recommend for decent drinks and bomb sandwiches. read more

Food: we split the Chicago Italian Beef with provolone cheese and the Taylor Street Italian. The Italian beef was superb--wouldn't change a thing. The Taylor Street was mediocre--the cold cuts were whatever and it needed some sort of zing. For sides, the green salad with bleu cheese dressing was outstanding, thanks to the house-made dressing, but the chips and salsa were lackluster due to the stale chips. The salsa was good. Service was top notch--attentive, friendly, and timely. Ambience: I like old buildings, so this was right up my alley. The restaurant was clean and had an upbeat vibe. The seating was hard on the butt and back. read more

Picked up the road runner on iceberg instead of mixed green, one of the best salads I've had in a long time. Tons of chicken (more chicken than salad), fresh vegetables (slacking on the tomato haha) and super delicious dressing. This is my new go to! read more

This is seriously one of my favorite spots for brunch/lunch. The sandwiches are huge and the bread is so delicious. The potato salad side is an unsung hero. Seriously, better than my southern grandma's! The drinks are stiff, the staff are friendly and the vibe is very moto cool. Next time you find yourself in Georgetown, give this place a try. You won't be disappointed!!! read more

What can I say? It's an institution. Hits the damn ass spot every time. The Gringa is as good as a sandwich gets, and they might do the most solid Italian Beef in Seattle. And the people who get on here and complain about the chips are wack as hell, it's a sandwich place. read more

One of the best BLTs I've ever had in my life. I ordered extra bacon too, and crispy. It was well constructed and perfectly seasoned. Even the chips and salsa were delicious. I had takeout, but I'll definitely come back and eat in person. What an incredible sandwich. read more

Food is good and made to order. No pretentious food intentions here. You hungry they got you. Decent collection of spirits. Meg our server was perfect. She's no amateur. Interior is industrial with motor memorabilia with a couple TV. Patio. It has a couple cool shops on the block. 4*'s because of parking. Other than that ***** read more

First time here and we were not disappointed! Service was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. We ordered Breakfast Tacos and Chilaquiles Verdes.

I love this place. Came in for lunch and was instantly greeted by a friendly server named Mel. Since this was my first time she was quick to give me a thorough history lesson on this place which I believe she said had been around for 30 years. She also explained the sandwiches I was interested in on the menu and they were incredible. Chicago style. I went with the Pit Boss and it didn't disappoint. The ambiance is unique and is very much "biker bar" themed however the crowd was very diverse. They have motorcycle racing on all the TV's which is unique. Definitely will go back and the only tough thing is parking. Just like many neighborhoods in Seattle. read more

After a multi year absence, I met a friend here tonight for happy hour and - as far as the Georgetown dive bar scene goes - Smarty Pants didn't disappoint. It's still got that under-the-freeway vibe, strong drinks, a great taplist, and tasty eats. The service is more than friendly, and it's an excellent place to people watch as various local characters stroll the sidewalk outside. Overhead, 80s hair bands rock the speakers. Because, after all, you gotta fight for your right to parrrrrtayyyyy! Thanks, Smarty Pants, for still being you. read more

No frills bar with food. Good selection of beers and drinks are good. Dive-y joint with a little outdoor patio that is dog-friendly. They were a little understaffed when we were there but still super nice. read more

This place is dark and kind of depressing a good place to hide the food was mediocre, and if you just wanted to drink beer maybe meet up with some neighbors the service was OK as well read more

A great sandwich has great bread and Smarty Pants has great bread!! Look at all of the toppings that are included on the Taylor Street Italian! Bite after bite did not disappoint. The homemade potato salad is a must!! It has the right amount of flavor that it makes you want more! Service was quick and friendly! The patio outside extends the amount of people they can serve, as well as accommodate larger parties, if needed! Definitely recommend Smarty Pants!! read more

They got a really good Philly and a great Italian beef sandwich, which is hard to find. They have a great outdoor seating, the bartenders are really nice! One of the hidden gems in Seattle! read more

I love the food here. Always delicious and server friendly and attentive. I always ask my wrap to be cut in half. Today I was told they'd charge $3 to cut in half. Nickle and dime customers? That's why the 3 stars. read more

Delicious sandwiches. Their Bloody Mary really good and loved their Italian sandwich.

Came here over the weekend and was able to get seated right away. On the weekends, they serve brunch, but we opted for lunch when we were there. They have an extensive menu with salads, sandwiches, and other various food choices. I ordered the french dip and it was the best french dip sandwich I've ever had. The au jus was very flavorful and the bread had a good crunch to it. My husband ordered the Chicago Italian beef sandwich, which was also very good. I would highly recommend coming here and definitely plan to come back. read more

A motorcycle themed bar and sandwich shop near a record store and some other shops. I stopped late at night and had a beer and some eats. I ordered the tangerine turmeric beer which was light and crisp. For food, I settled on Ms Piggy, a French roll filled with pulled pork, slaw, cheese and bbq sauce. Maybe not the best to eat before bed but was quickly downed it was so good. My only complaint was that I ordered chili for the side and got the potato salad. It wasn't enough of an issue to mention and the potato salad was an option I considered. Service otherwise was quick. read more

Was going to a Seahawks game and didn't have much time. Great fast service! Amazing flavors. Great vegetarian options!

We stopped in on a busy Friday night. We were able to get a table, but bar service was much faster to get our order in. Our food came up super fast! I had the French Dip, one of my favs. This one had good beef portions, not huge though as I've seen elsewhere. Salad was very fresh. Hubs had the Troublemaker sandwich. Fresh & tasty. Great spot to grab a bite! read more

Cane in tonight for the first time . We were gonna go to A place down the street but they were having a Christmas party, so we came to Smarty Pants and we are so glad we did!! Service was fantastic and the food came out quickly. We had the "Gringa" and the "Troublemaker". Both were delicious! The French roll they used was light on the inside and had a delicate crispy crust. The crowd is loud and fun....which is what you expect. We are definitely coming back to Smarty Pants! read more

Over priced. No french fries when they offer sandwiches and the food is inconsistent.

Came for a beer and it was a cool atmosphere. The beer came quickly and I also got some nachos to munch on while drinking the beer. I can't speak for the rest of the menu but the nachos were good. Service was good and I would definitely come back to try other things on the menu. read more

'Ello Chaps, So the name Smarty Pants for some reason conjured up some notion that perhaps I was stumbling into a vegan or vegetarians' hot spot or the like - not really sure why - but the least expecting what some biker grub bar of sort. No no, not a Hell's Angel's kind of biker bar, but a motocross themed kind of restaurant and bar. The theming isn't over the top to but a turn on or turn off, and really it doesn't matter. From weekend brunch to M-F regular mainstays, they've got a great menu with a diverse set of offerings - vegetarian and gluten free too. Burgers galore, French dip, etc. Like it hot? They've got sauces. Loved everything about this place. Just a good neighborhood spot that hit the spot when hungry and craving a burger. Overall I give Smarty Pants Garage four stars out of five. read more

Although I have only eaten here ones time ever there not to bad of a restaurant. I'm sure they are very delicious not I got the bad end of the deal from ordering here cause my delivery guy picked up my food and didn't drop it off to me till 47 minutes after picking out up from the restaurant so it was pretty cold and cold burgers are not too great at all so maybe one day I'll have to go check it out again. Wish my experience wouldn't been a little better but there delivery person didn't do me in to great. There was no tip at all for him. Hopefully he don't do all his business like he did me.. read more

Bar / restaurant / biker hangout. It's definitely a find; sammies, burritos, breakfast items, a little bit of something for everyone. We opted to share a chicken sammie of sorts, with a veggie relish on a toasted roll, served with chips & salsa; quite tasty . Definitely will be back. read more

Went there for a burger - was told they don't serve fries. What kind of dive bar doesn't have fries?? Nice place but I can't say I'm Going back. I'm never in the mood for cold cold slaw or cold potato salad frankly as a side. Bizarre. Otherwise a nice place. The Zimbabwean bartender was a class act. Owners! - Buy a deep fry vat on Craigslist and I may consider returning. read more

Fun atmosphere! Good food and some local beer. Friendly staff. Had a kid menu and outdoor seating.

I love the menu and the food at Smarty Pants. The vibe is fun and it's a relaxing, comfortable place. The service is....OK. The servers are always friendly but there is not a ton of hustle. They are also weird about cash. I paid my bill with cash and exact change. The server wouldn't take the change and told me it's because they "just round it". When she brought my change back, it was less than I should have gotten because they round the amount owed up. It's a dumb policy. read more

Very surprised that I haven't reviewed Smarty Pants at all. We would all go to lunch at this little place quite often. Well, I had a chance to visit again to meet up with some friends. It really hasn't changed much, friendly staff, a good selection of beer, and overall great food. They have now two locations with the other one being in Burien. I've been to both.. and prefer the original Georgetown location. It really is the atmosphere of this location that does it for me. read more

Service was great and fast and they have a very large outdoor space thats comfortable and would be good for groups! It's a little pricy though and I would recommend beers/ciders/seltzers over mixed drinks. Food is okay but nothing to write home about. Not a bad experience by any means but probably wouldn't pick it over other options. read more

Hot sandwiches for the win! My colleagues and I visited Smarty Pants for lunch, and I enjoyed my meal. Known for their sandwiches, especially the hot ones, this place was bustlin' during the lunch hour on a weekday. Located in Georgetown, Smarty Pants is a sandwich eatery with a full bar. In addition to their sandwiches, they have some shareable items, such as nachos and Frito pie. But I encourage all to get a sandwich and make your side the homemade potato salad, which was almost as good as dad's. I ordered the special of the day, which was a turkey pesto sandwich with the homemade potato salad for my side. My sandwich was super yummy, especially since it was pressed; so it was extra delicious, with the warm pesto. I was also impressed with the homemade potato salad, which was served chilled and had its chunks. Nothing worse than a soft, mushy potato salad! It was chunky with onions, and was light on the mayo, so I could really taste the potato. The only bummer about Smarty Pants was the service. Not sure if it was because it was packed or what, but service was super slow. Our server took down our orders, but never asked if we wanted anything to drink, or even brought us water. My colleague made eye contact with him from across the room to get her lemonade, which she had to remind him of after initially asking for it. If you're in a hurry for lunch - this may not be the best option for dining in, so order ahead of time! Other than that, I would come back to Smarty Pants. It's a chill spot with awesome sandwiches and many local drafts on tap. Plus, there's a nice patio area for those nice days. Be a smarty pants and eat here. read more

Went here with a coworker for happy hour. They greeted us at the bar right away and kept asking if needed drinks or food. My coworker and I kept talking so we took forever to order, but she was patient enough. Anyways, their drinks are good. For my personal alcoholic taste, they didn't have a big beer selection. I had their quesadillas and they were delicious! There was a side of sour cream and pico de Gallo which went perfect with the quesadilla. Definitely a divey bar which is totally my jam! read more
