Belltown's oldest bar and Seattle's best jukebox. Hearty and chceap food served 24/7. Legendary men's room periscope with a clear view of the Space Needle.

Get the one pound order of tater tots + ranch dressing and share it with a few friends. The tots are the best I've had in Seattle and the dressing is more creamy then ranchy. perfect combination!

A mean made-to-order mac & cheese. Chock-full of five different cheeses, this mac elevates elbow pasta with the option to add bacon, ham, jalapenos or chicken breast to the dish. Read more

True Seattle at its finest. Great food 24 hours. Especially the breakfast. As local as you get.

Wow, the open-faced turkey sandwich was everything I wanted & more! Thanksgiving leftovers without the hassle. Sit outside for a great view of the Space Needle while you chow down!

Busy place, but we had fast service from bartender. Food was good and huge servings. Hubby and I split chicken fried steak and eggs, good. I thoroughly enjoyed a tall Bloody Mary at 8 am on a Friday!

Fried cheese curds and poutine are amazing. Great beer too.

Had the 2 combo breakfast with a LOT of sausage, best breakfast I had in years!

15 years vegetarian and BF's bacon looked so good, crispy and thick, I was tempted to have a bite! Delish egg dishes, friendly bartender.

Don't judge this book by its cover - the Halibut and Chips was excellent, some of the best I've had in awhile. Only knock is that I felt the portion could have been bigger.

Bloody Mary and nearly anything off the menu, though the Chicken Fried Steak is on point.

Gotta go here for Happy Hour. Deliciously unhealthy appetizers (don't forget the beer!) for less.
Katherine M.June 10, 2014
Total dive bar open 24h a day with band stickers all over every surface and loud punk music. Might or might not be your scene, but I love it.

Omg the burgers were great!! It’s a dive bar, you can tell it’s been there for a while… the servers were very attentive and the drinks were made well
Angie CapogrossiSeptember 26, 2014
Sit at the rail and order the corned beef hash with a pancake breakfast. Jameson with a butterscotch float and a side of OJ!
Billy GoodheartJuly 9, 2015
Waitress was nice. The Five Point French Toast with hash browns were both tasty and filling. They play some great music there too. Great atmosphere.

Great local bar. Not touristy at all. Good beers on tap and good comfort food. Great place if you wanna hang with the locals.

Had an enjoyable experience here. Customer service has been much improved and the menu is very amazing. Always ask for the special.
Bobbi SandmannApril 27, 2015
A great dive bar. Drinks were strong and you can get breakfast 24-7. Check out the French Toast.
André HopkinsJuly 26, 2014
Get the deep-fried cheese curds. But don't come here if you're starving. They cook in slow-motion here.

The turkey platter on bread & mashed potatoes is the best!Also, GREAT chili cheese tater tots & sliders.Stiffest drinks around too!
The Daily MealJune 17, 2011
Completing the look of this dive bar are duct-taped furniture, a jerry-rigged periscope in the men’s room, and an all-day-n-night breakfast menu to complement the 40-ouncers of Olde English. Read more

Come for the early happy hour – if you can get away with it. The $3 half eggs Bennie is a great deal. As are the $5 mimosas!
Rune BakkenMarch 15, 2020
Perfect when you need an early breakfast after flying in from Europe
Chris MetzkerMarch 26, 2013

The French Toast is to die for and the cheese curds were delicious. The Irish coffee was good but lukewarm.

"It's a dive bar that opens at six o'clock in the morning with breakfast happy hour from 6 to 9 am, which is pretty hard core."

Great happy hour spot but be warned it's always crowded and the inside can get hot and stuffy.
