Local brewpubs
Dad Watson's
(Fremont)
Dad Watson's, part of the McMenamins chain, has pretty good grub, a fun selection of board games and an outdoor area that fills up quickly in nice weather.
Elliott Bay Brewery
(West Seattle)
The beer is cold and tasty, the menu deep and the room smoke-free. Who could ask for more?
Elysian Brewing Co.
(Capitol Hill)
Yearning for wide open spaces, but also want to drink an exclusive craft brew? The Elysian is homey, friendly, and you'd swear dance recitals take place in the day at this spacious pub.
Forecasters Public House
(Woodinville)
Seattle's storybook success macro-micro brewery has a really swell pub located next to its Woodinville brewery. Tours of the brewery are offered twice daily.
Hale's Ales Brewpub and Palladium
(Fremont)
In addition to its renowned British-style handcrafted brews, Hale's has delicious fresh pretzels that are made on the premises using brewer's yeast.
McMenamins
(Queen Anne/Seattle Center)
This is a nice place to hang out, play some pool or a board game, and relax with a tasty, frothy pint. We recommend you try the thick Terminator Stout.
Pike Brewing Company
(Downtown)
This British-styled pub for the post-frat, sports-loving crowd is surprisingly unassuming and the grub above par. Try the fish and chips, and wash it down with the pub's distinctive IPA.
Pyramid Alehouse
(Sodo)
Enjoy burgers, pizzas, appetizers and perhaps, needless to say, first-class microbrews at this sports-fan favorite.
Redhook Ale Brewery
(Woodinville)
The Cataqua Public House at the Redhook Brewery is open daily, providing Redhook brews, pub food and live entertainment ranging from music to comedy nights.
Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery
(Downtown)
Regularly packed with the after-work crowd, Rock Bottom's brews may not be as tasty and thick as, say, Hale's, but that's a plus to some folks.
Six Arms
(Capitol Hill)
The whimsical decor of this McMenamins brewpub -- chandeliers shaped like starbursts and giant statue of its namesake six-armed woman -- makes Six Arms the perfect home base for beers with quirky names. Terminator Stout, anyone?
