Reuben's Brews

Fairly accessible, well priced, and good quality food and beer! Located around the Ballard area, this place is located in the midst of many breweries. I only went here for beer as I am not too big of a beer person, but this place has a good variety - from IPAs to lighter hops to stouts (their BBIS). The beer can be tried as tasters in 4 oz cups, which is what I got, so I can try more variety. Note that it will cost a little more per ounce than if you get 12 oz, but you pay a premium for variety, which is fine since it isn't that much more. 3 4oz cups got me to a little under $10 after tax, which includes their stronger, pricier stout (BBIS with maple syrup). I don't care too much about their IPA but their BBIS is amazing - not carbonated, strong, a bit of coffee flavor, and a bit on the sweet side.For food, they have a food truck place called Reuben's Eats and I got the fried chicken sandwich original. For $11 before tax, it is a lot of food. The chicken is not the most seasoned but it was very crispy and juicy! Not the best sandwich but it pairs super well with the beer. My friend and I shared a ranch loaded special fries and we barely finished one order. It is good but they also give you a lot of food! We were originally going for the SRW special for $35 per person, but after finding out they only give you 3 4oz cups also as their pairing, we actually spent a lot less getting what we want (by half the price) and we were still very full.

Much-loved neighborhood haunt with excellent large and sunny outdoor area and even a few NA and non-beer options for weirdos like me. Their food -- from a very cute permanent food truck called Reuben's Eats -- is also quite good. Perfect for groups.

I didn't know what to get and I wasn't driving, so I started with a flight. I liked all the beers that I got, but the best was the classic Czech pilsner. The Smore stout was interesting but not what I was expecting. The outdoor patio area had a nice vibe but there was an event going on and it was kind of chilly (the fire pit was off). The inside was nice but a little quieter and empty.

When I tell you that I would drive all the way from Portland to Seattle to eat this salad - I am not kidding. The best chicken Caesar salad I've ever had, hands down. The chicken was perfectly crispy and the dressing was perfect! The brat was also so so delicious. The guys working the truck were super nice and the food came out quickly. I had low expectations and hoped for the best but I was truly amazed at how good this was! Wow.

After hitting up Great Notion directly across the street, we checked out Reuben's Brews. My dad wanted to go check them out and try one of their beers before heading back to our hotel.We sat outside at Great Notion, but we sat inside here because it was becoming a little chilly! I ordered an orange hard seltzer and my dad ordered their key lime beer (we were here specifically for that type of beer haha). I've been going for the fruity beer/ciders lately and the hard seltzer that I had was so delicious! It had that perfect orange flavor to it! My dad was so distracted by ordering the key lime beer he didn't even realize that there were 28 other beers on tap. He loved this beer so much that he decided to take a four pack back with him, which was also the case with another four pack he took back from Great Notion. They have four restrooms inside, with two of them containing baby changing stations, which is convenient if you have a baby in tow. They also have a food truck directly outside on their patio, titled Reuben's Eats.I really enjoyed Reuben's and I want to come back and try their other beers next time I visit Seattle!

Reubens has good food, good beer, and great service. Nothing more you could ask for from a brewery.

Maybe I recommend this spot. The strawberry rhubarb sour was delicious. This brewery suffers a bit from the Seattle freeze vibe I've grown to almost accustomed to. I'm referring to an almost unfriendly borderline don't bother me attitude that seems to be prevalent in the Seattle area. It's not necessarily rudeness but also not extremely welcoming. Anyhow, I asked about food as there is a food truck out front and the young said 3:00. The food truck did not open at 3:00. Boo. The tables were all sticky from, mmm, not sure, but the beer was delicious. And there were so many choices.I was just hungry and might have tried another beer if food had been available. I give this spot 4 stars as it had good beer and I would come back with a group of friends. It's definitely a friend place. Not a solo person place. Clean bathrooms though. Yeah. Cheers and happy Yelping.

Start your brewery crawl here. You won't be sorry.Excellent selection of beers. The Czech pilsner was very good (husband had that), but I had the Fantastic Summer lager (wow was that really good). Raspberry sour was also tasty (ordered by someone else in our party). Service was excellent, both in the taproom and out at the food truck that's on premises. And speaking of the food - superb! The fried chicken sandwich was absolutely delish! The pretzel is also very good - and huge. But that chicken sandwich - way too yummy for my own good!Nice atmosphere with multiple tables inside and out. Very comfortable and a great way to start your afternoon of ambling around the many breweries located here. Definitely one of the most memorable spots - both for the beers and the food.Remember, start here. You may not leave!

Nice selection of brew and causal seating for enjoying your adult beverage. Not special compared to the other places all around. Place x the street is better IMHO

Always busy. Always a good vibe. Tons of beers to choose from and they even have their own food onsite. We've visited in all weather and their space accommodates it all. There is indoor/outdoor and covered/uncovered areas. They also have live music on some nights. Reuben's stands out in the brewery district.
