Tuna melt is such a guilty pleasure; they put spicy peppers in it.. The fried goat cheese is amazing as well. Unexpected for the feel of the place but good!

Decent list with nano-breweries like Stoup and Reuben's starting to make the occasional appearance. Food a little pricey for what it is, but the Reuben is excellent and the tuna melt quite good. 21+

Great spot to watch a game! Local pub with great service and delicious soups.

First visit tonight. Ordered the Chicken Quesadilla which came with a small leafy-green salad. It was DELICIOUS! They have my fave cider, Blackthorn, which is hard to find! Definitely going back!

The chicken quesadilla was stuffed with pesto and cilantro. The seared prawns left a mild but lingering spice. All to pair better with the microbrews: about 20 beers, mostly from Washington and Oregon Read more

The cask ales are amazing. As are the tacos/Mexican foods on the menu - a real find with a local Queen Anne feel

Totally a local bar. If you're an "outsider" go with friends! Bartenders make good reccomendations for beer but not great shots!
Tammy McCrayJuly 7, 2016
The only decent drink prices are during happy hour. The food is so good though!!

Best Reuben in Seattle. Hands down.

Bartender gave us a sample of the Ninkasi Tricerahops Double IPA. It's amazing. Will definitely go back for more!

Schooners are the way to go if u want to try a lot of beer.

Ask about their cask selection and try to sit near the window!

The cask ales will transport you to jolly olde England.

Hale's Cream Ale on nitro is always a reliable choice.

Only drink the cask - the closest you'll get to proper beer this side of Landsend

Don't go unless its happy hour. $6.50 for one pint of flat interurban IPA.

The chicken sandwich deserves all the praise it gets. Try it with the cask IPA.
Diane TumanSeptember 14, 2010
From the tap: Hales Cream Ale is the smoothest beer you will ever have.

Awesome tea shop. Ask for Brett - he knows his teas!
Joe HeckJanuary 9, 2010
Make sure to ask them to put tabeuleh back on the menu. Goat cheese salad is a great light lunch.

The gumbo is always fantastic, but you must like your gumbo spicy because it is.
Stephanie Joy MiranJuly 28, 2014
Nothing special. Food sounds better than it tastes. Don't come in with high expectations. Their hefeweizen is good though.
Sean OliverFebruary 27, 2011
Try the Tuna Melt - Just spicy enough.

The burger is on bagette, and oblong, but with blur cheese it pretty much rocks.
