We decided on two non-alcoholic options, a 0 ABV from Reuben's and a sparking hop-water, and both were excellent!

Overall, this is a nice spot to stop in with ample seating and friendly bartenders. We'll be back!

Independent Beer Bar is 21+ and dog friendly. During our visit, the kitchen was out of order; however, outside food is welcome. Beer/tap bars are quite trendy nowadays.

I had a Fat Orange Cat Baby Kittens Hazy IPA for $7. Pricing is fair compared to surrounding area. Our server was friendly and enthusiastic. I look forward to returning in the future with hopes to pair Russian dumplings with my beer.

In long Lately we've been seeking out places that are literally quieter--less volume on the music, more space between the tables, and so on. I'd been wanting to check out 5x5, anyway, since it's the only spot around with an exactly perfect rating score. It looked like it'd fit the bill for a low-key place, and off we went. We came in shortly after they opened on a Saturday (4:00 PM). You're in a larger business-traveler hotel here, aimed at Boeing and Boeing-sub folks traveling for work. The building looks kinda generic from outside, but there's plenty of parking, and the lobby has a high-ceilinged atrium vibe for sure. Nice floor tiles, nice carpet, tasteful furniture. Everything's in perfect shape. You don't feel the lounge vibe right away, but there's a gigantic fireplace ahead of you, warming both sides of the room from the middle. Around that, there are lots of sturdy, shiny tables under the lofty ceilings. Off to the side, there's a little lounge area, then another one. Everything in the lounge is bar-height seating, and there are a few flatscreens, probably showing the game. Most folks are in here, sitting around the bar in the middle of the room. We posted up at a table just outside the lounge. Lindsey was behind the bar, and cheerfully answered every single question we had about food and all their cocktails. She's super friendly and makes a great drink for sure. She seems to have a bunch of regulars who aren't staying at the hotel, which is a great sign, no doubt. We checked out the warm pretzel--such a decadent treat. The waffle fries (and especially the aioli that came with them) were awesome. The pizza was a great choice; we added pickled onions to the Speedway. The crust could be a little crisper but we took home what we didn't finish and it's great here, too. Service on food and drinks was really quick. The cocktails here can be really creative, and there are lots of classics with house twists on the recipe. They even have a pisco sour they've tweaked--that's a fair bit of work for a bartender to make mid-shift. We got 5 great drinks and 3 nice plates of food for $96, and I don't think we even ordered anything from the HH menu. This is a very easy place to add to the rotation.

It is part of the Staybridge Suite hotels here and this hotel in general, is always packed! We finally know why! The hotel inside is beautiful -- woodwork and a cozy ambience! The 5 x 5 bar & bistro is new. What it was before was an old theater. Matthew was a one-man show with two ladies helping him with carrying the done orders to the tables. It was actually quiet on a Wednesday when we had went. Only 3 tables occupied. We missed happy hour and settled on the regular menu. I had the chicken tenders (4-pc) with lemon pepper seasoning (oh my -- this was delicious!) along with sweet potato waffle fries. I also got the hummus plate -- fresh veggies and the hummus had feta cheese and olive oil too, yummy! My bf had the pepperoni pizza with cheddar cheese and topped with green onions. I had a taste of it and it was pretty good! My bf's mom had the fish burger with a side salad. Matthew was so kind and made a mental note of the orders. He even remembered my bf's mom saying 'no cheese' and he doubled checked with her after looking at the fish burger. Real nice guy and his service with the ladies was warm and delightful! They're forming an events room hall that will be done soon that used to be a pool area (so yes, no swimming pool anymore). They also have a nice patio area with long chairs and a nice mini bar/grills in the middle. I also had a limoncello cooler and my bf's mom has red wine too. We'd come back again!

This brewery is essentially a refurbished hangar so dress accordingly. It's a good idea to bring a sweatshirt or jacket to ward off the chill. There are a few TVs mounted throughout the hanger. Board-games are also available to play while sipping brews. Beer listings are displayed on a nice digital screen. A couple beers have a high ABV which limits those beers to two pours. There isn't really a kitchen; however, simple foods such as sandwiches and chips are available. Waiter service is non-existent. Orders are placed at the counter as well as picked up at the counter (beer & food). My wife ordered Audrey for $5 a pint. I ordered the Back Stabbing Bitch (2 pour limit) for $5 a pint. We both enjoyed our choices. For lunch my wife ordered the Traditionalist Polish Dog with original Tim's potato chips for $6. Can't go wrong with a hot dog. I ordered half a Big JW with a bag of jalapeno Tim's chips for $6. My sandwich was generously topped with meat and cheese and grilled to a nice golden brown. Tasty. We look forward to returning in the near future to slurp on some tasty beer while watching a game.

No real defects in any of the beers, which was a statistical impossibility, I thought. Were they my favorite all-time beers? No, but everything was very good to excellent, and is now my go-to brewery in Everett!

Yay! We are trying everyone's clam chowder and fish and chips. The clam chowder was deliciously adequate. Maybe with some sourdough? Alas... The fish n chips were breaded and not battered. I don't care how long you've been a restaurant, once a better prep comes along you shift and elevate. The chips didn't come with malt vinegar --although I did see it when we left :/ I shouldn't have to ask. The on tap beer definitely needed an upgrade. Waiter wasn't very educated on beers. View 100!

And what we get from Safeway actually tastes better than what we were served. Then I got an oyster shooter - absolutely disgusting, it was mushy and tasteless. Best part of this restaurant are the servers, and sitting over the clear water on a beautiful day. Our server actually felt so badly for us that he brought a complementary slice of carrot cake. This was incredible - it had caramel syrup drizzled on top. Seriously, the highlight of our meal. We are sitting at SeaTac Airport and my husband ordered fish and chips. Sooooo much better than at Ivar's. It is insane that airport food is better than a well know, established restaurant. A lesson here - do not eat at a tourist trap.
