Hooverville Bar

This place is divey, divey. We didn't get the chance to try their pizza since their toaster oven was broken, but we will be back before any performances at Showbox Sodo across the street. The night we went, there was a very young crowd, but imagine you get folks from all walks of life here. The bathroom was gross, but again, it's a divey spot. I liked the red booths and quirky decor, especially the chandeliers!

Dive bar vibes in SODO. One bartender and a large amount of people clammering to get a drink. So intensely crowded after a Mariners game. Fun vibes here though even though it was packed. Diverse age group as well which made this old lady (lol) feel ok to be out so late at a bar. Fun times and strong pours. Loads of televisions showing movies and sports. A dart board and two bar areas. We went to the back bar thinking it would be faster, nope. No worries. The one lady bartender was absolutely killing it behind the bar. Pouring drinks like a boss! Legit fun and good times here. If you happen to be in downtown Seattle and want to have a late night beverage come here. It is a full bar with a good choice of beers on tap too. Cheers everyone and happy Yelping.

This is a great bar located just south of the stadiums so it's a great spot before a Hawks, Mariners or Sounders game. They have a really good selection of Seattle beers and the mixed drinks are poured with a heavy hand. They also have a pool table and darts and several big screen TVs in the back room to watch the game. They used to offer free peanuts but stopped doing that during Covid, which is a bummer but understandable. Parking is also a bit challenging unless you want to park in the back, but that area is getting more sketchy these days. I would give this place a 5 star review but it looks like my credit card was charged for items I didn't order so I need to track that down, even though I didn't keep my receipt. I'm sure this is an error on my behalf, but still something I need to confirm.

I can't believe I'm going to say this but I was not expecting Hooverville to have such good pizza! The personal pizzas are the perfect bar food for one, or to share. I thought little to nothing of this bar before I came in, and now I'll likely be coming here for a bevy or two before games or nearby shows.

Came here for a work happy hour tonight. I am a dive bar fanatic and this is a great one. Can't believe it's my first time here. You can smell the old beer on the floor when you walk in. Good diverse crowd here and heavy pours. Good music playing too. Can't wait to come back again.

This bar was soooo much fun! Darts, pool, pin ball games with a great selection of drinks. Bet tenders were really nice and the energy was great!

stopped in for a drink and to use the restroom. I have been 21 for months now and they turned me away saying they don't accept my ID. Idk what kind of policy this bar has, but I am very irritated.

I love this place and think the name is right on the nose. I'm not implying it's a dump, by the way, but it does have its own character. If you are looking for a swanky place with fancy drinks - this is not your place; and that's OK! This place is great for people like me who feel a little more comfortable in what I think may technically be defined as a dive but honestly it's lovely. The service is great and typically comes with a pretty generous pour if you order booze (I swear that has not affected my judgement at all) and everybody there is pretty nice. The location could be better I suppose but if you are going to the show across the street at the Showbox I can't recommend it enough. WAY cheaper than the drinks inside and the pizza is great too! I'm a big Skee-Ball fan as well so I've spent more money on that than I'd care to admit... overall it's a really fun place I always enjoy coming to

The atmosphere is super cool and service is fast but I felt like i was annoying the bartenders just by being in there lol. My friend and i were situated on the far side of the bar, we ordered two shots and then i asked what beers were on tap (honestly because i couldn't see the taps or the menu) - bartender rudely replied "we have like 40 beers on tap." ah okay..so i walked over to the menu and found something. no biggie as im sure they get asked that all the timesecond thing - i politely flagged down a bartender asking if there was a small bar menu for food. they replied "this isn't a restaurant." and handed me a small menu of personal pizza options.although i am sure they meant no harm, but rubbed me the wrong way as i asked very politely. i would be happy to return tbh but will not be asking bartenders any questions.

Terrible service, rude bartender with the black hair, and pizzas are cooked in a toaster oven.
