Lobby Bar at REN

I came here for a Yelp event. The place has a swank and lively atmosphere, like a heartbeat, in an otherwise typical lobby. I'm always looking for a good cocktail and can imagine coming back. The bartenders were fun, engaged, and helpful. While not the most stocked bar, it seemed to have a lot of quality liquors and liqueurs. The drinks were creative and enjoyable. I was able to sample some bites and was delighted by the salmon focaccia sandwich. Based on location and quality, if this place had existed for the past decade, I could imagine having dragged my friends here to unwind, shoot the breeze, pre-game, or just try new cocktails. I still imagine I'll be back once in awhile, and highly recommend checking out the Lobby Bar at REN for a bits and drinks.

Met a friend who was visiting Seattle on a biz trip at The Lobby Bar. It's tucked away in a cozy corner of the REN apartment building and has a comfortable, welcoming vibe. We both tried a speciality cocktail and were super impressed by the flavors and presentation! This inventive spot stems from the Tutta Bella restaurant group team so same quality of offerings with a new twist. Our bites included a delicious Caesar salad and focaccia sandwich with smoked salmon, goat cheese and other delights. Highly recommend as a quiet, elegant spot to connect with an old friend!

Alex--the man, the legend. Great bartender! Super chill spot, you can actually hear yourself when speaking to people. The alcohol is pretty carefully curated, not like regular well drinks served at bars. They have happy hour all day Sunday and 4-6 other days. They serve great food, late night bites.. I got the Virginia focaccia sandwich which is burrata, heirloom tomato, basil pesto, arugula. My hubs got the salmon pizza, also very good!

This is the craft cocktail bar in the lobby of the beautiful REN in South Lake Union. So you can draft in behind a resident, or you can push the secret Lobby Bar button on the main entrance screen to be buzzed in.Once inside, take a moment to soak in the atmosphere. There's a bit of an outer space theme between the rocket-bear sculpture and the selfie-magnet astronaut-on-a-bench. Then head to the bar! They have an approachable menu of house craft cocktails fueled by creativity and inspired by the cosmopolitan nature of Seattle. There's an espresso martini like you've never had but want to, and several drinks that are for the more adventurous at heart.To pair with these delightful drinks, you have a number of shareable and small plates including customizable charcuterie boards with cheese, meats and tinned fish options! Great for any dietary restrictions. Fresh salads and serious sandwiches round out the heartier fare.So whether you want to lounge in the arm chairs, bring a group to their big table or chat with the team at the bar, you'll feel welcome and enjoy every sip and bite.

I live in the building, and this is one of the best features we have. Absolutely delicious cocktails and really interesting takes on some of my favorite foods - their charcuterie boards and sandwiches are especially good! Above and beyond that, the staff is incredible - so kind, friendly, and very well-versed in the art of craft cocktails. I highly recommend it!

Fabulous bar, swank and casual at the same time. The setting, food and drinks are just incredible. A very unique and creative menu that will not disappoint. This is the place to Wow your friends.

As a Concierge at the Hyatt Regency, I strongly recommend this amazing bar. Alex the bartender and manager, is very hospitable and knowledgeable. His recommendations are spot on and will guarantee to tantalize your senses. The experience is well worthwhile. It must fit a fantastic time!
