"I love the beer they make but this was my first time visiting the brewery.Huge spot on the water (across the street from it) with lots of indoor and outdoor seating.The guy behind the bar was great! We ordered a flight of beer and he gave us a sample of one of my favorite beers from them (Rusty Nail).You can get free pretzels if you ask for them.The beers were fantastic, the spot was amazing and the beer tender was great.We would definitely come here again when we are in the area."
"Pretty cool place to hang out with games for young and older "kids".We had the pulled pork sandwich which was good, maybe a bit small on the burger buns but it came with a good amount of fried.The chicken sandwich on the other hand was bigger and also came with fries. The fries we supper crunchy, I believe they fry them in batter.There are tables and metal stools outside which are tall and uncomfortable to seat on, but we ate pretty quickly and played some of the games so that's a big plus.At last you order and pay at the door and you're given a buzzer. It's pretty self served from that point on."
"End the school year happy hour go to. You will find many teachers here come mid June. The pizza is cooked in a fire oven and so good!! Think crust and foldable. The artichoke dip had a bit of spice because it has jalapeños in it. Service is always on point also. Friendly and helpful when you can't decide between a beer or a cocktail. The vibes are super chill and total brewery culture with dogs and kids around. Parking is tricky here, but, you can find it if you don't mind walking a short ways. So happy the social committee at my school chose this spot for our end of the year social. Cheers. SYOP."
"I've checked this place out a few times as I am into pinball bars lately. It's a little hard to see what it is exactly from the street but it's worth the walk inside. Parking in this area is street only, there's some other establishments across the street. I really like the vibe here and it never seems too crowded, even when there is an event going on. It's got 2 separate rooms (one currently with older games) and a really nice outdoor area. It seems like they have different games every time I visit and I always find something I am excited to play. It's nice they have two bathrooms and some places to sit both indoors and outdoors. There's a few video games and an air hockey table too. They sell a variety canned beverages, beer, cider, etc (be sure to crush your cans) and some snacks. I recently went here for a show, this is not a place that I would have expected to be a good music venue. I even called ahead of time to make sure the music was being played inside as it was rainy out. I had no idea the back upper area was big enough to use as a stage. I had a really good time, plus the benefit of attending here was that even if I didn't like the music I could still enjoy myself playing some pinball. I'll plan to stop back in whenever I am in the area and will definitely pay attention to any future music events they might have here."
"I love this second location that opened up for Cloudburst Brewing! I went to the original location several times and always loved the beer I got there. So this other location definitely holds up. I don't know if I would say parking is easier... because I really felt like it wasn't but I knew it was worth walking for!I had two Cloudburst beers at this brewery. One was the Timbo Pilsner which was fantastic! I always loved their pilsners!The second one was a type of beer style I didn't often come across.. a Kellerbier by the name of Entshuldigung. Definitely different(but fantastic)but like all my Cloudburst Brewing visits the beer here has never disappointed me!"
"Super cute place! I love the aquatic theme and the owners here. Beer is local. They have a 'food bar' which looks great! They also have karaoke on Saturday nights! Definitely a great, unique spot to grab a beer."
"We stop off here on almost every visit to downtown Bothell. It's located right in downtown and makes the perfect place to sit if you have been out walking or biking around and need to relax for a minute, or if you happen to be staying up the street at the Anderson school. The beer choices are pretty good, lots of interesting options which change frequently. They often have a food truck out front, but looks like this may be mostly Fridays. They tend to have a lot of events happening as well, if you are into that kind of thing. I think we came once for beer and donuts, but I do pay attention to the events I see posted on facebook and often consider this as a reason to make it out this way. The majority of seating is outside in a tent which can be a little uncomfortable in colder weather, but they do their best to try to heat it. In the summer they were able to expand to the street out front, but not certain if that was a special covid option. There's usually quite a few dogs out there too, hence the name. It can get crowded, your likely to have to share a table. I always forget they sell bottled beer as well. Everyone working has always been friendly, my partner tries to taster too many beers and they always accommodate him without issue."
"Week 26/52 in my endeavor to try one new (to me) local spot per week! For those who don't know... I play darts. Bar darts, not steel tip. If you're ever at a dive (most likely) bar, and there's big, electronic dart boards? I play on those, competitively! It's not like the Olympics or anything. It's just a bunch of people who can aim decently but like to drink beer at the same time. We have leagues, tournaments, competitions, etc.Anyways, I digress. League is BACK "post-Covid" (although we're still very much in a pandemic), and our weekly league took us to JJ's! I'd say the atmosphere is very comparable to any other dive bar.Layout is nice, bar staff is really kind, and the owner is often there, hanging out and mingling with everyone! If you check in on Yelp, I think you can even redeem a high five or "hello" from him. LOL I haven't had food here yet, but it all smelled great. Drink prices are comparable to most other bars as well. All in all - it's a dive bar! And it's a great dive bar experience at that. Friendly people, clean environment... Can't really complain. Looking forward to playing here more."

One of my fav breweries in Seattle. Love coming and hanging out with friends or alone at this spot. They have ample indoor and outdoor seating which is covered so shields you from Seattle winter. Staff is always nice and they have a robust selection of great beer - something for everyone. I love their Nitro Dark Star, Summer Ale, Interurban and also they have a wide selection of non alcoholic drinks. They have a fridge with some sandwiches if you need to grab a quick bite if not feel free to get outside food here and enjoy their beer. All in all I enjoy hanging out here and will continue to support this deserving brewery!

So this is a weird one for me, this adorable little diner is located in Concrete, WA a tiny little town with very little food options. They have an amazing outdoor space, definitely a spot to bring friends and hang out. They have beer and ice cream, which are huge wins for me, and the people were incredibly nice. The food however was just ok. The burger was simple, nothing special, but fine. The garlic Parmesan fries had a delicious sauce on it, but some of the fries were hard from still being raw and some were perfect. The service was slow but they were busy, and their systems were struggling that day. Ultimately, I would give 3 stars for the food we had, but 5 stars in ambience and coolness. Perhaps though other food would have been better? Also my husband split a burger and an order of these fries and it was plenty!

This is a great spot for big group gatherings. They had several kid birthday parties going on when we went but still had enough space for others. They also have a huge outdoor area. Dogs galore were out there which is a bonus for dog lovers. The pizza was great! Had great pizza sauce. I love sauce! My friends thought the wings were good as well. Good beer with all the eats it was a good pairing. Great time after a day of hiking! Didn't have much interaction with the staff but whoever grabbed our dirty dishes was very nice.

Came here for an event which highlighted a sort of gem of a place in Fremont. Not too many arcades or pinball museums around so The Ice Box is great but doesn't just offer those couple things. Lots of events take place here. Of course, the Yelp event I attended, but they have live music nights, regular karaoke, Free play times, tournaments and probably more, which can be found on site and on the website. It's a great hang out spot where like the many breweries in the area, they'll serve up the beer, but you can bring your own food.What a great place to bring food too, particularly in the warmer weather though. There are outdoor benched seating making for an awesome place to hang out, drink some beers and play some games. Dogs and kids are welcome too.There are over 25 Pinball machines, and, on the website, there is even a link to strategies on how to play a lot of the games. I'm not great at pinball by any stretch but that is cool. Not just because there is help, but that for such games that even exists.Ice Box is definitely one of the cooler places in the area, pun intended.

One of my favorite breweries in Seattle!So thrilled with the Shilshole location opening and the close proximity to the Burke Gilman bike trail. Thanks to the new location I was able to get several visits in to Cloudburst! Their beers are delicious, hazy and so fresh!The tap list always delivers, especially if you are an IPA lover like me! My husband and I split schooners, so we are able to try everything on tap!! On location they have a great food truck, which is always appreciated in a day drinking session! The majority of the tables are outside, pretty much covered and even have heaters. Every season is enjoyable, but Summertime is my favorite time to visit the taproom. Parking is always a challenge, so I love to go there during the spring and summer when I can ride my bike. I love Cloudburst beer! Seattle staple!

Quirky, fun place with an otherworldly dive-bar ambience. Definitely a tropical vibe, but not a traditional 'TIki Bar'. Beer + wine and a self-serve Chili Dog Station with chips for food. Couple of TVs for catching the game and the owner\bartender is a super-cool guy.

Excellent choice of beers here! Someone in the group not into beer? Say what? There are wine options as well as ciders and delicious sours! They have a nice little patio area where you can enjoy your beverage and you are allowed to bring food from neighboring restaurants! We enjoyed a couple of rose pours here before I spotted the guava hibiscus sour from Payette brewing in Boise! So much flavor and the right amount of sour. Just how I like it! Right now they are practicing social distancing and allowing only one person in the lobby at a time with a second register at the back for ordering once you've been seated out back. There are so many good options available in this tiny footprint of space right off the main drag in Bothell. I look forward to future visits to this neat spot!
Visit Restaurant Page"What a difference a day makes. This place has come way up since my first review. The owner David has done an amazing job bringing this place back to life. The list of items that he re-did, remodeled, replaced and just plain fixed is a mile long. The atmosphere is one anyone can enjoy. Whether a regular or some one just stopping in for quick pint you will always find friendly staff and a great drinks. Not to mention this place is very easy on the wallet. Easily the cheapest drinks in North Bend. So stop in and grab a pint and make new friends."
"We got a mocha and a latte along with a chocolate croissant. The servers are very sweet and seem fun. The croissant was pretty good too. Unfortunately the coffee was a bit bitter and over roasted for my liking. But the cafe itself was beautiful. Wish they would improve the quality of their coffee."
"Ounces is the neighborhood watering hole West Seattle deserves We love to walk down with our kids and dog to grab a pint, a cheese and charcuterie plate, and a chocolate milk (if we're really hungry, the rotating food trucks become a heaven-sent). Rain or shine, there's both a covered area that feels like you're outside (with large screen tv for the games) and uncovered areas with a fire pit, and plenty of tables for meetups with friends. The staff is warm and friendly and the rotating beers on tap are very refreshing. Ounces is literally the perfect spot to just get away from home life/work life."
"Pretty small cave-like space with fridges of bottles and a bar for you to sit and drink at. I was able to find a few bottles I liked but there are specialty-beer stores around town with bigger selections."
"What a fun and friendly little, but more than coffee, house in downtown Snoqualmie. Always a great selection of coffee, always hot n tasty. I've been here a few times already, overdue for a review. I apologize, a picture of the coffee menu soon. Great choices for breakfast and lunch meals, always adding specials of the day. I tried the 'less boring grilled cheese, and with bacon and locally made apple butter it was definitely NOT boring, lots of flavors going on! Along with coffee, they serve kombucha, ciders, and local beers, so a little bit for anyone. Backside is an open patio for nicer days, nice n cozy on the inside. Art on sale hanging on the walls, and a friendly barista behind the counter ready to take your order. Always great to support local businesses. Definitely worth stopping by, next time you're traveling around Snoqualmie. Yelping on, God bless and Cheers!"
"I came by to grab a drink with a coworker who recommended this place. They have a large space that includes both indoor and outdoor seating. There are picnic tables and couch seats inside that face the TVs so people can watch sports games. Outside there are patio tables covered by tarps. There are very few parking spots right out front but there is street parking a block away where you can park and walk over.All their beers are brewed in-house and their ciders come from Soundbite Cider in Everett. I ordered the thor's hammer ($6.50) which was very creamy and chocolate-y. If you want you can also order flights that consist of four 4oz pours of $2-3 each. They don't have free samplers but instead it's a $1 donation to a charity.When I came here a lot of people were on their laptops because there is free wifi so it's a good place to get some work done too. They have food trucks parked on-site so you don't need to go too far for food. This is a nice place to relax and grab some drinks."
"Easy parking. Plenty of space including a back room for larger groups with a couple of picnic tables (and door open in warmer weather). Decent beer. Good service. Lacking in the food department unless a soft pretzel is your jam, but they don't mind if you BYOF. Bottom line: Good venue for good fun and games."
"Been coming here for a year and a half now.Food: 3.5 starsBeer: 4 starsMy "go to" is the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap with Tater Tots as the side.My husband's "go to" is the Prime Rib Dip with a side of Tots.Fries were delivered to me accidentally last time here and I can confirm the tots are still WAY better.Honorable mention would be the fried chicken sandwich.Beer selection is usually great but sometimes you come and things you want are bottom of the barrel or like today there's only one ipa at 9% and everything else else besides, Space Dust, that sounds tasty is averaging around 5%. I like coming here to drink things I can't buy at the grocery store.Would LOVE them to offer Sticky Monkey or Parabola (or other exotics) from Firestone walker (since they offer other basic Firestone beers occasionally).Definitely our favorite beer/food/pub in town. I have so much hope for this place. I am their secret cheerleader and know they are so close to making this place amazing."
"Had an amazing Father's Day Brunch! Dad's got to keep the 1L mug! That was such a nice gesture. Had been once to the Yelp elite event here and loved it. Hubby loves German beers and couldn't think of a better place to celebrate. We did not have a reservation but we were able to get a table on the patio. Our waiter was the best. Brought me some samples of beers to help me pick the one I liked. And just as I thought, I didn't go with any of them. Saw someone drinking a Spritz and decided I wanted that. He gave me the option of Marina Spritz and I went with that. Same as regular spritz but blue in color. We ordered the hall pretzel that was delicious. The florentine Benny and the burrito were both fresh and scrumptious. A small order of fries on the side. Absolutely enjoyed the brunch here. We will be back soon!"
"Good spot for brews. One of my go-to spots to stop by when I'm in the Seattle area. I enjoy their rotating taps. I usually try their hazy IPAs. They have A LOT of seating. Inside, outside, and upstairs.There is limited parking lot with other businesses, otherwise, street parking.A lot of great spots in Ballard for brews...but be sure to stop by Stoup Brewing!"
"Came by South Fork after a hike in the area and was so happy about it because it's been a spot that has been on my list for a minute. Good vibes and good food after a hike? Can't beat it!We tried the black bean dip, the brisket mac and cheese, and the chicken sandwich. Everything was delicious! I liked the bean dip more than I expected, and the crumbled feta on top was a great addition. The brisket in the mac and cheese was my favorite item we tried by far - lots of flavor and very tender! My boyfriend also enjoyed his chicken sandwich, although it was a little on the small side.They have a good selection of beverages here as well as a limited liquor selection as well as beers & ciders. After we ate we walked around with our drinks to explore the property a little bit and there's a fun detached, heated seating area with a large television. There's also outdoor seating which we would've taken advantage of if it wasn't sprinkling.We definitely plan on returning after another hike in the future!"
"Berliner Pub has such a fun and cozy atmosphere. They serve all your classic German grub like bratwursts, pretzels, schnitzels, curry fries, etc.. They also have like twenty different beers on tap as well as a number of cocktails and seasonal drinks.My favorites are the Prickly Pear beer (which tastes like a honey seltzer) and the Munich Noire Shandy (which is a seasonal winter offering that tastes like a Ghirardelli raspberry dark chocolate bar in my opinion). The prices are very reasonable- my boyfriend got 1L of Prickly Pear beer for like $8!Service is fantastic. All servers are super nice and attentive. They have trivia nights on Wednesdays and I think Karaoke sometime over the weekend?The place is family friendly, but it's mostly just adults in the evenings. They have a back patio open when it's not raining cats and dogs. The decor is Gothic/Medieval era and they have their club members' beer steins lined along the walls which is a pretty cool addition.Overall, 5/5 for drinks, 5/5 for service, 5/5 for atmosphere"
