    Cute spot with lots of local beers on tap as well as some tasty food, sake, and wine available! Laid back with nice service and an inclusive environment - good spot for an after work drink.

    A small, but varied selection of beers

    Vulpine is a terrific addition to a shopping center that has a lot to offer. Cozy and welcoming, we found enjoyable food and drinks, particularly impressive since the kitchen seems to only contain a panini press and a microwave. The Pumpkin Goat Dip was chevre based, and served warm. Sandwiches came out of the press with a perfect amount of crispness and warmth. The beer selection wasn't huge, but there was something for everyone. The local resident who introduced us to Vulpine said they may be expanding into the space next door, which should be a good thing, since there weren't a huge number of tables to accomodate the crowd that has discovered this place.

    Our first time visiting Vulpine Taproom. Great local hangout in the Lake Forest Park shopping area. While there we learned they are planning to expand to the recently vacated spot next door. Good vibes inside with a super helpful and friendly staff. I had a nice craft beer, my daughter had an Elder Tail drink and my wife had a Liquid Death Hop Water. Each of us enjoyed our bevies. We sat outside in the outdoor patio to enjoy the warm Summer weather and struck up a convo with a local lady who frequents the place. Vulpine Taproom features a variety of rotating taps with great descriptions on the chalk boards behind the bar for easy ordering and have a good selection of canned non alcoholic drinks as well. They even have a liquor slushie machine that seems to be all the rage these days. I can't wait to return to see the expanded area!

    The best way to enjoy Labor Day weekend? A couple pints of beers and ciders at Vulpine‼

    Nice vibe. Cool artwork everywhere. Long skinny inside area with 5 2 seater tables, 4 bar seats, & 6 bigger tables. Outside there are 6-8 tables too. All Rotating taps of tasty beers. I haven't had the food but it was fun watching them make orders behind the bar. I think we'll make Wednesday trivia a regular thing; the host is pretty funny.

    This is now my favorite place in the world. A real locals hangout without bad vibes or judgement or exclusivity. Everyone is welcome and the place is alive and vibrant. Josh opened this place last year and has created a cool fun space for the 21+ crowd to hang, enjoy drinks, food, games, and community. He is often seen in the floor helping pour drinks, handle the register, administer trivia, and participate in the fun runs! Where else do you see an owner being on the ground like this!?!? And totally enjoying it too??? Amazing. The place is absolutely on point with the fox theme. There is fox art everywhere, intermixed with PNW outdoor elements and decor. Local art is for sale and the member mugs are handmade by a local artist too! The beers and wines sold here rotate but are generally all local. They even serve ciders and make their own 3 cocktails, which they call "fox tails". Ahhh so cute. They host trivia on Wednesdays, vinyl night on Thursdays, run club on Friday, and art hangouts on Sunday. They have a board game library. They serve solid looking sandwiches, cheese boards, and soups. It's everything I wish for and I plan to make this my 2nd home. Really highly recommend you visit this place. It's amazing and you'll feel like a regular the first moment you walk in.

    Adorable fox theme is everywhere, which helps the place stand out from bars where the TV is the focal point.

I'm a huge wine person, but wasn't in a wine mood, so didn't get any, however, they had a lot of incredible wines to pick from. Our server was super sweet and attentive. We shared the mushroom melt and green salad. Both were so delicious. The salad was filled with tasty and fresh goodies. The sauce was really yummy. I love that our sandwich came with brown butter popcorn. The space is really cozy. They have shelves of wine, bar seating, and normal tables around. There isn't a bathroom in the space, but they have a key for a bathroom within stores it's attached to. There was street parking out front. I recommend checking this spot out for food and wine.

I'm here to review the food, which is great and unlike other menus in the neighborhood. Here, you will find "bar food" elevated so high it could hold its own among fine dining. My mom and shared a few plates: the Vinbero club, the spring pea risotto, and the kale Caesar salad. Everything was delicious. The club is packed with thinly sliced chicken breast, crunchy bacon, and fresh tomatoes, greens, and avocado. The contrast between the bite from the aioli on the inside of the sandwich and the sweet tartness of the balsamic drizzle on the outside was fun and unexpected. The kale caesar was very fresh with a great dressing. But for me the star was hands down the pea risotto. Perfectly creamy, vibrant green, and packed with fresh spring flavor. It appears they change up their risotto offering every so often, and it's gone now, but I will dream of that one until it appears again. Our server (maybe the owner?) thoughtfully split our sandwich onto two plates (hence why the photo only shows one half) and added the side of popcorn to both plates. A nice touch. The inside is a little small and dark though well-appointed. Their mini patio outside is crowded and uncomfortable. But they're doing their best with what the space they have. And truly the food is a standout in the area.

About 10 minutes from the Woodenville winery.

The heavenly aroma of freshly prepared food wafted through the air, teasing our senses and building excitement while the cozy decor instantly elevated our mood. With an exceptional selection of wine and drinks, plus captivating indoor and outdoor seating, it seemed every whim was thoughtfully catered to. Despite arriving at 1:00 to a lively crowd, we were seated promptly, thanks to the impeccable and exceptional service. Our server's remarkable attentiveness and expertise set the tone for a truly unforgettable meal, and another staff member exceeded our expectations, sharing delightful stories about all their special events, such as Happy Hour and Wine Wednesday, and inviting us back for dinner. She shared that the biscuits we inquired about were made in-house, a testament to the restaurant's pursuit of excellence. With customer service that inspires and leaves a lasting impression, we can't wait to return and relish the experience once more. I highly recommend the Biscuits and gravy, Eggs Benedict, or the Cottage Breakfast; all were truly spectacular! This place truly deserves a spot on your must-visit list, and I highly recommend it.

The ambiance its making me super happy by the time we step in. very nice restaurant. The food its delicious. But im very sad with the service. The server asking if we want the drink to be on the rocks or not? And we said yes. But the drink dont come "on the rocks". So We ask the server with the beidge color shirt,and he said our drinks its on the rocks. While on the rocks means a drink is served over ice cubes. When our drink its served on beer glass with ice that already crush or shake together with the drink. If the drink dont come in options "on the rocks" we're totally okay. Maybe saying "my apologies,the drink don't come in options on the rocks,should i make a change" or anything. But the server with the beige shirt teaching us that our drinks is served "on the rocks". It looks like he's teaching us back about our order. while our server its the one giving us the options for that. I do feel embarrassed about this. But it's ok. This place its just not going to be to our recommendation because of the server. Also the server should not took the menu and read whats inside the dish in front of us. When i firm about what i order. I think we are very in awkward situation. The server should more knowledge about the menu more than us.

I honestly don't get it, but I still tipped above 15% for the service regardless. Service was very attentive, so I do feel they deserve a reasonable tip. But if the restaurant needs the customer to help them pay for their staff with this added surcharge to the bill, then maybe it's better for the staff to find a better job. Seems strange to me. But anyways, regardless, I enjoyed the food quite a bit. I'm usually a pretty tough critique on Italian food since it's one of my favorite cuisines. So for me to say the food is good should say a lot. I got their chicken risotto and I was impressed by it. I also got an opportunity to try some of their pizza and the crust was done very well. Not a floppy pizza. They have a proper pizza oven for baking it. Very good! The restaurant atmosphere feels quite high end. Great for date night, business dinners, or a fancy family meal. The restaurant did feel a bit crowded and tight though. Especially with how busy it was. I honestly think this place has great food. I just hope the staff gets paid enough. Like, I'll tip! Just don't have me pay for what the employer should be paying them. Just have me pay them for their great service.
