    I have visited this bar a few times and it always has a cool vibe, but overall, I am not a big fan. First the food is just ok. The burger looks delicious but consistently lacks flavor. However, the tater tots are excellent. While I have encountered a couple of great bartenders, my last visit was marred by staff who appeared extremely negative and angry. One cook, carrying something hot, unexpectedly came through a quiet corner in the back and started yelling at patrons to move, despite no prior traffic in that area for over two hours that we were sitting there. It would have been more considerate to ensure the path was clear before proceeding, as this incident unnecessarily put people in danger and caused undue stress as we were getting up and ready to leave.

    If you're looking for a dive bar, you've arrived! They have a little bit of everything you could be looking for. Outdoor patio with fire pits, happy hour, solid food, dive bar vibes, TVs with the essentials and much more. We live close by so we often order out their tavern burgers and fries, their fries order is a huge portion. The bartenders are attentive and fun. No frills, all the fun and no pressure, love this spot

    I only had a chance to have a drink but I love the low key vibe with bit of seedy pub ish feel. Outdoor has a little fire pit you cam sit around. I had a glass of cava and it was decent price. I would def come back again! Oh and it has a parking.... it makes a huge difference in this current seattle status

    Tavern Burger with shoestring fries
    Jim B.

    I really enjoy this place. the ambiance and decor are perfect for this part of the city and simply because of the age of this establishment. There are always quite a few people there no matter what time I go which is mostly for lunch or happy hour. They have definitely established a regular crowd over the many years. My favorite is the Tavern Burger. Substantial and only $7! and they have shoestring fries which are my favorite. Great service and will keep going back.

    Fish and chips

    We went to Star Brass on Sunday afternoon to get together with a group of about 8 others for drinks and lunch. Such a fun spot! The staff was so friendly and accommodating! They were on top of the orders, drinks, requests, fire pits. Everything! We really appreciated it all. They have great bar food! I ended up with fish and chips - definitely the best I've had here in the seattle area. The batter was nice and crispy, while the fish was fresh. I loved the shoe string fries as well! We also ordered some tots and onion rings for the table. The small size of both were perfect for about 4 people. Both apps were hits and we enjoyed them with allll the dipping sauces! We'll totally be returning to Star Brass! Such a fantastic option in the Georgetown area.

    Double tavern burger
    Jesse G.

    I've only been during the day or just after work - but I have always found it to be a laid back place to eat and hang out with surprisingly good food. I especially like the Tavern burger, or the double tavern burger - depending on how hungry I am. It's like a fast food burger but perfected - a perfect balance of meat and cheese and bun and not a bunch else. More complex things I have gotten on their menu have also been good. And they always have nice selection of beer and great bar tenders for mixed drinks. I like their big outside area - always plenty of seating. The inside is cozy and warm.

    Came here on a Wednesday night looking for bars in Georgetown good for groups. They have a large outdoor space but the inside is also much more spacious then I was expecting from pictures. The inside is cozy and the bathrooms are clean. Drinks were good and a great value especially compared to standard Seattle drink prices. For food we got fries (very hot and a large serving, enough for 2-3 people), steak bites, the house salad, and wings and were very happy with all of the above. Definitely want to try the $7 burger next time I come in! Service was great, all staff we interacted with were friendly and made the experience very positive.

    Veggie reuben & standard fries
    Teresa M.

    This was a great, semi-random find. I was down in Georgetown for other purposes a few weeks ago when I walked by and saw their sandwich board sign promising really cold beer. Right up my alley! I ended up going here on a weekend right as they opened. Vegetarian options are very, very slim - for the most part you can sub a veggie patty on a burger (no idea what kind of patty), or you can get a veggie Rueben, but I really like Ruebens so I decided to go ahead and give it go...especially for really cold beer! I was basically the first one in for the day, so service was super quick and friendly. I was disappointed that the beer wasn't really cold, but I got to try Jellyfish brewing (which is right down the street) for the first time and that was lovely. The Rueben, from a visual standpoint, left a lot to be desired. It looked really burnt and kinda sad, but they simply used a dark rye that ended up being really good with a perfect amount of toasty. Tavern sauce was also quite good. Just like everywhere else it's mayo mixed with....I don't remember what I thought it was?! Now I kinda want to try it again! From a vegetarian standpoint, this isn't going to be somewhere I frequent, but it has a pretty nice vibe and it would be great for a mixed group.

It's one of those Seattle spots I can keep coming back to and still feel like I'm having a proper night out.

The views obviously do a lot of the heavy lifting when you first walk in, but what keeps me coming back is that the experience doesn't stop there. The staff is consistently wonderful, the food and drinks hold their own, and the atmosphere makes it equally easy to stop in for a cocktail or accidentally stay much longer than planned. Bellafonte + hummus + the girls. Any day of the week.

It's hard to find something everyone agrees on but this place had a little of everything. we got there and they were in that weird in between time from end of lunch/happy hour, so the kitchen was closed. It was about a 30ish min wait but we were determined. It was a fabulously sunny day, people sitting outside so we decided to hang out and have a drink while we waited for the kitchen to open. So glad we stuck around because this place is AMAZING. The corn fritters our wonderful server recommended them and I could kiss him. They were so good. The oak salad was light and fresh, perfect for the day. Burger and fries were super hot and yummy. Lastly, the server was so great with our 2 girls. (Wish I would have gotten his name) He let them sit outside at their own little table and they chatted with the other patrons. (There was a couple with their dog sitting outside).

The restaurant was about half full when we arrived but was packed by 7pm when they have trivia game night on Monday evenings. The menu has many vegan and vegetarian options as it was originally a vegan restaurant. One of us ordered the bacon cheeseburger with vegan cheese and three ordered Banh Mi Salad, which was a dinner special. Two selected the grilled chicken as protein and one selected the grilled tofu. The burger was juicy and delicious. The salads were excellent. One of the best salads I have had, unique. The marinaded chicken was grilled perfectly. The pickled vegetables were an excellent acid complement for the salad with sesame dressing. Definitely a local favorite. Enjoyed the relaxed vibe of the restaurant. Server was very helpful in answering questions about allergies. Greatly appreciated. Highly recommended for great healthy food options, a good time and a chilled and relaxing evening!

One night, after a dinner nearby, I went here to try the soft serve. It was absolutely phenomenal. The choice of flavors isn't much, but the amount and variety of toppings is awesome. I went with the vanilla and chocolate swirl, with butterscotch hard shell and reese's pieces. Firstly, the texture was so smooth and creamy. It had a great mix of both flavors, and was at the perfect temperature. But the toppings are really what makes this. Hard shell is not something you find often, but being able to break this butterscotch and eat the crunchiness along with the melting ice cream was amazing. The excessive amount of reese's pieces added saltiness and even more texture to the overall thing. It was just wonderful overall. Given that, I was really excited to get the fried chicken sandwich, which I did a week later. Unfortunately, it was really bad. I was just confused at first. How could things have gone so wrong here. I'd heard a lot of good things about the fried chicken sandwich. Yet no amount of online reviews could rescue the reality that was in my hands. The chicken was just awful. There was a ton of breading, practically thicker than the chicken itself. But somehow it just failed to be crunchy - it just felt soggy with every bite. Over-breaded chicken is never a great sign, and the inside was terrible - barely even tasting like chicken. It was super overcooked; no juice at all. The fried chicken piece was also super thin compared to how large the buns were. Just nothing worked on this sandwich at all - including the excessive amount of mayo. It's one of the worst fried chicken sandwiches I've had. Price-wise, the chicken sandwich is actually not too expensive at around $11. The soft serve is about half that, but at a pretty good portion. It's tough for me to come up with an overall rating because the soft serve was so good, followed by a mind-bogglingly bad sandwich. I guess I'd only recommend you come here for dessert. 6.5/10
