The wings and cocktails are amazing. Everything else is decent enough to scratch the itch in their individual food categories like burgers or chicken and waffles. read more

The food here was so good!! I found this place on Instagram and came specifically for the Ube French Toast. We also ordered the Breakfast Mac & Cheese, and both dishes were delicious. UBE FRENCH TOAST - 5/5 I absolutely loved the French toast. The top and bottom had a perfectly crispy, crunchy exterior while the inside stayed soft and fluffy. The ube filling was light, creamy, and not overly sweet--I think it's made with cream cheese? It was the perfect balance of flavors. BREAKFAST MAC & CHEESE - 4.8/5 The mac & cheese was incredibly addictive and loaded with mushrooms, ham, and crispy hash brown bits. The flavors worked really well together. My only small complaint is that it was a little on the salty side. If it were slightly less salty, it would be perfect. We visited on a Sunday with a reservation, though there were still a few open tables around 2 PM. I highly recommend sharing your dishes since each one is pretty rich on its own. Pairing a sweet dish with a savory one made for the perfect meal! read more

Food - came in with my husband and my cousin and we got 3 different meals and then traded a little bite of each. we also got 3 different drinks and traded. and EVERYTHING WAS GOOD. not only that, but it was hard enough to even decide what to get because there were so many other items on the menu that i wanted to try, both food & drinks. this may be my new go-to spot. i had the chicken and waffles. the chicken was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. good flavor. and my waffle was fluffy and the perfect combo w/ the chicken. i'm actually not a syrup person, but this dish was improved with syrup. the slaw on top also paired well. my drink was the calamansi marg because i just love all things calamansi. but i tried my husbands fruity pebble drink and i liked that one even more. then i tried my cousins be like water drink and that was prob my #1. stay tuned because i will be back to try other items fo shooo. Service - excellent. even on a busy mothers day our food came out quick. we sat at the bar and the bartender was super friendly and had great recs. everyone was so chill despite being insanely busy. Ambiance - theres actually an outdoor patio area but we didn't check it out. indoor seating is decent and also space at the bar. could move some things around to accommodate a larger party, but prob parties of 4 are the best bet. read more

Service--exceptional. Attentive servers. We came early on a Sat PM. It wasn't as crowded but food did take a while to come out. Venue--cute ambiance. Plenty of parking. It's just a cute place. Food--this is a 4.3/5 stars so pretty good and I should've taken more photos. We got the beet salad with grilled chicken. Huge portions. Delicious. Also got the chicken Gouda sandwich special. It came with a side salad. Again, delicious sandwich. I would want to order every item on the menu to try. We got the ube waffle to split. It was good but could use more condense milk since the waffle was a little dry. read more

GREAT food and service! My sister LOVES their beet salad and I LOVE their steak sandwich along w/a beer ~ it's all good ;-)

Came here around 10:45 on a Sunday. I recommend they have a better system for waiting. I came first and about 10 people came in shortly after with no solid line. The waiter asked me to come up first and after we put our names in. The people behind us called us entitled and rude but I was just doing what we were told. Left a sour taste on our experience. We got the ube French toast and the silly belly. Service was nice resturant was dark. Food was plenty and very flavorful. Very unique taste, I highly recommend and would come back. read more

Ube french toast- 2/5 I was expecting the ube to be very loud but the ube cream cheese was very heavy on the cream cheese and I could not taste the ube. I was a tad disappointed because it was very hyped up in all these reviews. Breakfast burger with sinful tots- 3/5 it was just an okay burger, nothing to write home about. Great service though! read more

It is always a great experience at barrel and bacon, this was my first time trying their brunch and it did not disappoint!! Going in I knew I was going to order to infamous ube French toast which was amazing and not too sweet, perfect with the Ube cream cheese and coconut flakes! My wife ordered the chicken and Ube waffles and it was seasoned perfectly and went great with the sweet Ube waffles. Drinks were also amazing and my wife said the espresso martini was the best she's ever had. They only do brunch on Sundays so I expected it to be busy and made a reservation which I'm glad I did! Despite it being busy we had great service, it was only one server and one host but they were both handling the floor so well! read more

Barrel and bacon does a nice take on Truffles N Bacon in Vegas. Their take on the Ube French Toast combines sweet and savory with a cream cheese filling, this personally wasn't my favorite menu item. My favorite menu item was their loaded tots and Buffalo Mac n cheese. The server who assisted us was so kind and helpful and the space itself felt like a good middle ground between casual and romantic. It would make for a great first date spot! read more

From the ease of the reservation and the close walking proximity to my house, this was an absolute must try. We arrived early for our reservation and we were promptly greeted and offered an option of indoor or out? We chose to sit on the patio, it's a quaint little patio. The server was prompt very efficient and friendly offering a glimpse into the kitchen with bacon!! Yum we had to try the tots with bacon. You cannot leave here without eating the entire bowl. Then we shared the house, bacon burger pardon the forgetfulness on the name of it, the bacon took over. Bottom line: what are you waiting for? read more

Overall it was alright. It has a nice big parking lot. The vibe is cool and dark and you can see trains pass in the windows. The service was really friendly and chatty and nice. Overall I found the food just alright though. We were disappointed by the ratio of corn to chips in the elote. The wings were not very flavorful we felt and I couldn't even really tell they were tamarind flavored. The tater tots were alright, better than I expected. The mac and cheese was very gooey but I didn't know if the katsu added much to it bc it just got kinda soft in the sauce. I liked the taquitos. Overall alright food but not sure I loved the vibe and the location is a bit out of the way and not near other things. read more

Barrel & Bacon is basically elevated pub grub. The restaurant is dimly lit, casual, and comfortable. A plus is that they have a parking lot and our server, Carlos, was welcoming and friendly. The food came out efficiently and at a reasonable speed. First, we ordered our drinks. I highly recommend their Blueberry Spritzer Mocktail which tastes refreshing, citrusy, and not too sweet. We skipped appetizers and went straight to ordering our dinner entrees next. I enjoyed my Ube Waffle & Chicken (made with crispy ube flavored waffle, katsu fried chicken, apple slaw & sriracha-honey syrup). The chicken was boneless and evenly crisped and seasoned. It paired well with the ube waffles and a light drizzle of their tasty sriracha-honey syrup. The other standout dish is their Crab Mac (made of baked mac n' cheese, crab, asparagus, roasted peppers, serrano peppers, and crispy fried prosciutto). So creamy, savory, and went down smoothly! Their Ranch Chicken BLT Salad was perfectly dressed (composed of mixed greens with cubed katsu-style buttermilk fried chicken, bacon, tomato, onions, white cheddar, croutons, and tortilla strips tossed in ranch dressing. It was filling, tasty, and a great choice for a salad to order as a meal. Their Steak Sandwich (made with medium-rare New York steak, roasted garlic & thyme aioli, arugula, tomato and blue cheese on ciabatta bread) with a side of fries. It was simple yet flavorful! We didn't have any room left for dessert. Next time, Im going straight to dessert to try their famous NB'S ICONIC UBE FRENCH TOAST that was featured on the Netflix show "Fresh, Fried & Crispy". It is made of Ube French toast bread, ube cream cheese filling, coconut strings, ube jam & condensed milk drizzle. Yes, it totally sounds devilishly decadent and yummy!!! I'll definitely be back ;-) read more

I've tried to eat here before for Sunday brunch without reservations and was turned away :c but finally came back with a reservation! The place itself is kinda interbay/Queen Anne. There's a parking lot which is super convenient. The restaurant itself is dark and industrial-y. There's TVs above the bar which gives it a sports bar vibe too. We ordered the ube French toast and the salmon avocado toast with egg. The French toast was pretty good. The ube flavor is light, it's definitely overpowered by the cream cheese. But I still enjoyed it. It somehow didn't feel too sweet. The salmon avocado toast was standard. I liked the sauce on top. Gave it a nice tartness. Service was kind and attentive as well. Overall, pretty good place. Wasn't a standout, but would like to try their dinner menu sometime! read more

Came here for brunch on a very rainy weekend afternoon. Luckily it was not very busy and we sat down right away! The service was very friendly! We also loved the millennial playlist haha. I ended up getting the croissant-wich Sammie with Brie and jam and bacon. It was quite good. I also got a side salad and the truffle tots. The salad has way too much dressing for my taste so I couldn't finish it. The tots were nice and crispy. Portions were very nicely sized. Didn't try any cocktails but would like to come back in the evening for happy hour or dinner one day. read more

Ever so often in Seattle, I'm actually blown away by my experience. The uniqueness of the menu is intriguing alone. The Breakfast Mac & Cheese is A MUST HAVE item. The cocktails are worth trying and I mean all of them. The staff was inviting, smiling, enthusiastic the whole time. Overall a great space and change of pace for a Seattle restaurant although they originated in Vegas which makes sense considering the care and attention to details with the menu. read more

A friend had her birthday dinner here. I was excited because they've been bookmarked in my collections for a while. The Mac and cheese was so good, it has katsu chicken in and it was delicious! A friend had the tater tots and they were good too, but the Mac I will definitely be going back for. I want to explore their menu for sure. The Manhattan cocktail was so good too. The servers at the bar were so fun! They knew the menu well and gave great suggestions on the menu. It's a cute place inside. The location is hidden away which makes it a hidden gem. read more

Satisfied with this brunch - we tried a bunch of items from the menu, and most were pretty good (silly gang wings AND pork belly, bacon/brie sandwich, chicken tinga omelette, katsu + ube waffle, and the famous French toast). Weirdly for this crew (sweet-toothed all the way!), the collective consensus was that at the toast was our least favorite item. It's visually stunning, but heavy on the cream/halaya/toppings, and lacking in the actual toast (thin/rubbery texture, not at all fluffy). All of the savory items really knocked it out of the park, though! We definitely will come back for the katsu, the free/plentiful parking, and the excellent service. read more

I didn't know what to expect as this was a place selected by a friend local to Seattle. Located in an industrial type area which apparently is where the cruise ships port. Parking is available with in their internal lot which great since the street is quite busy. The staff was great and very personable. as I always do, I inquire what their favorite dish is or what they recommend to get off the menu. The food was good and unique with the touch of filipino cuisine. Would I go back? Probably? Definitely would get the Breakfast Mac again and the Ube Waffle and Chicken. I would want to try other items on the menu as well. read more

This place is tucked away in a little industrial area that had my husband not found it on yelp, we for sure would have just driven by it. We came on a beautiful day, so we sat outside in the back which is right up next to train tracks on the other side of the fence. There were some occasional trains, but it wasn't for too long that it ruined any of our conversation. The service was fantastic and they gave us great recommendations. The margarita was refreshing, but also had some smokiness. We also tried the Breaskfast Club drink that tasted like fruity pebbles and that was delicious! The food was the true star of the show. The ube waffle was so soft, the fried chicken was so crispy and the honey sriracha syrup tied it all together. I'm not a big fan of slaw, but the apple slaw on top was fresh and sweet. My husband ordered the Rawlin's chicken sandwich and the flavors of it all paired so nicely together, but he upgraded his side to the sinful tots and they did not disappoint! My favorite of the night had to be the sinigang wings. They were hot, cooked perfectly and I could have licked the bowl clean because the sauce was delicious! This Filipina definitely left happy and will be returning! read more

The most heavenly brunch that you need to try! Since they only do brunch on Sundays, the wait does tend to get long. I overheard them quoting a 3 hour wait for some small sized parties. Luckily, we had made a reservation ahead of time. Yelp Waitlist is also available here, which is nice. We ordered the Silly Gang Wings, Buffalo Mac, Pandan Mochi Pancakes, and the Ube French Toast. The buffalo mac stood out for me the most. It is a shame that this restaurant is not opened for lunch because I would love to come here just for that dish alone. It would also be nice if they had a way to order takeout online. I also really liked the pandan mochi pancakes but could probably do without the Lotus Biscoff cookies. I enjoyed the silly gang wings as well! I hope to return so that I can try more menu items. Free parking in a lot is a plus! read more

The crab cake BLT was flavorful! Plentiful, loved the thick cut bacon and brioche toast. It's large and a popular item. - cool atmosphere in an industrial setting. - parking was convenient and free in its own lot. - lots of choices on the menu. Everything looked delicious and hearty. I had a hard time deciding so I went with one of the popular items. - I want to return to try something else and their cocktails. -atmosphere is fun! The 80's music was fun and loud and the train runs directly behind the building ... also fun. I didn't mind it but if you're sensitive or looking for a quiet atmosphere it could be a thing. - they were down a server so I got they feeling they were overwhelmed. Lots of simple forgotten basics (forks, dry toast, coffee creamer) but we were patient and eventually got what we needed. read more

Small cozy, industrial-like place with Filipino-American brunch and dinner options. The place is a bit out of the way without a car, but there is a good amount of parking. I made reservations 3 weeks in advance for a Sunday brunch as they tend to be pretty popular (more so the place is very small). We were late and they were strict to the dot that they only hold reservations for 10 minutes, which is okay, they still seated us at the bar in a 2-top table which is about what I would expect anyway with a reservation. We got seated shortly and ordered the Ube French Toast and Breakfast Mac. I also tried the Ube Me that is refreshing and a bit tangy with a combo of ube and calamansi. The Ube French toast is the popular item here and featured. It is a bit on the sweeter side but it is very hearty and flavorful. The Breakfast Mac is a bit interesting as there were hash browns, alongside ham and bacon. I wished they gave a bit more meat but otherwise, it is the quintessential comfort food. Prices are a bit high but the food portions are large and hearty. I rounded up the review because of the outsized service, with water refills and quick food as they made a note to the kitchen that we were in a rush and needed to be out at a certain time, and the staff were able to make this happen without cutting any corners. I will come back again for a few more items like the wings. read more

Free parking lot which is nice that's shared with other businesses! Barrel and Bacon is a little small inside (max capacity is 49 people) and the restrooms are 2 unisex rooms shared with another business. Highly recommend coming during happy hour to try a lot of different things. For the two HH items, they were the size of a soup bowl. Everything else was big in portion so an entree and appetizers would be perfect. Service was good and no issues. Buffalo Mac: The amount of protein was generous and overall the dish was delicious. There wasn't a strong tasting of buffalo sauce and more like a hint. Sinful tots: The tots were delicious and had a slight truffle flavor. The bacon jam was reminiscent of BBQ sauce and overall a good item to share (or get it with a burger). TNB signature burger: The burger was very rich with a big piece of Mac and cheese patty. It wasn't that cohesive together and the bacon jam was the same from the sinful tots. Overall an over the top burger that was just okay. TNB iconic ube French toast: The French toast is delicious and you can taste the cinnamon. Regarding the ube, the cream in between was mostly yogurty and tart. I didn't pick up much ube flavor other than the use of the use halaya (jam) on top. read more

For those who love brunch, this is the spot! I've been here twice and have left each time wanting more. I was first introduced to Barrel & Bacon by Marie B., fellow Yelp Elite. We started with the Sinful Tots and I ordered the Breakfast Mac, and I was immediately hooked! The Breakfast Mac is baked mac & cheese with bits of bacon, ham, mushrooms, hashbrowns, truffle oil and topped with a sunny side up egg. You had me at truffle! Two weeks later, hubby and I visted and we started with the Fili Cheesesteak Rolls and the Sinful Tots - both are solid starters. For our entrees, I had the Ube Waffle & Chicken and hubby had the Chicken Tinga Omelette. Both dishes were tasty. There was a generous amount of chicken in and on top of the omelette. I loved the chicken katsu that accompanied the ube waffle. The katsu was crispy, juicy and flavorful, especially drizzled with the accompanying hot honey. I recommended to the neighboring first time diners those items I've already enjoyed and let them know that I couldn't imagine anything on the menu not being good. Once they received their order, they confirmed for us that the Monte Cristo and the Cinnamon Toast Crack Fries were good ... sooo, I know what I'm trying next! It's evident that a lot of care and thought goes into the preparation and presentation of their dishes. There is something for everyone here. Reservations for brunch are strongly encouraged and brunch is only served on Sundays. Staff are friendly and welcoming. The 80s music played overhead is a plus! read more

If you haven't hit up Barrel and Bacon in Seattle yet, you're seriously sleeping on one of the city's rising comfort-food legends. I first discovered them right when they opened, and I was honestly shook that the place wasn't packed wall-to-wall because the food slaps that hard. After our first visit, we were so obsessed that we literally came back the next day just to try more of the menu. And guess what? The owners actually remembered us. They even know our favorites now. That level of friendliness and hospitality is so rare, and it's one of the big reasons this spot instantly became one of my all time favorite restaurants in Seattle. And let's talk about the food. The whole menu goes crazy, but the sinful tots? The undeniable star. Crispy, messy, indulgent, and completely worth every bite. It's like someone took nostalgic comfort food and gave it a glow-up that feeds your inner child and your adult taste buds. Also, the restaurant sits right by the train tracks, and you can see trains roll by through the window while you eat. It's such a vibe! read more

They have a full bar serving up creative cocktails and lots of draft beer options!

The staff here are so attentive, friendly and helpful - ensuring that you'll leave satisfied w/ your drinks and meal! read more

First off, you will need to be very aware of the address and where this place is located as you will easily drive by it and miss it. You cannot see it from the street. However there are two entrances so depending on which direction you do have two choices. With your standard upscale environment, you are treated to some fantastic comfort/pub food. We were seated quickly upon our arrival. We used the reservation app within YELP to book our reservation. I had the bacon fat washed bourbon old fashioned. This was sublime. Being fat washed, the drink is smooth and ultra delicious. I started the meal with the Silly wings, which are deep fried, and coated with a sweet Tamarind sauce. You could have just given me a straw and a bowl of this stuff and I would have been happy. The wings, about 6-7 were extremely juicy and flavorful. I then stepped it up with the truffle mac&cheese burger. On a Chibatta roll, a burger is covered in a large slice of backed truffle Mac and cheese and then topped with bacon jam. People, this is something you really need to try, something you really need to have a big appetite for. Also had the sinful tots as my side. Finished it all off with the dark treat brownie covered in mascarpone cheese, and bacon jam heated up. Epic. With great service, quick and attentive, drinks that are sublime and food that will stick to your ribs and fill your belly, you simply cannot go wrong here. I must admit that I struggle to give this five stars. Not because they don't deserve it as they do, but giving great reviews means everyone else will want to try it and it will be harder and harder to find a great place that you can just pop into and call it your go to spot. But I would also do a disservice by not giving them the stars they so deservedly require. read more

A solid 3.5/5. We went for brunch. After seeing how great the food looked and how it was all over my social media. We made the trip out there after running an errand. We arrived before they even opened. There were a couple cars with people also waiting in the ample parking lot. Honestly had we not have known about the restaurant, we'd probably never have known it was there. As soon as the open sign was on, we headed in. So I've learned that brunch is somewhat a big deal in Seattle. We were asked if we made reservations, which we did not. And then was told to wait for 25-30 minutes to see if any of the reservations had cancelled. So we sat and waited. Sure, if the some reservations showed up. But there were at least 3 other parties of 3-4 walk-ins also waiting. After 25ish minutes we were seated. The restaurant wasn't even half filled. There was ample seats at the bar area. I don't know why it took over 20 minutes to seat 2 people, when I obviously wasn't a full house. Once seated, we ordered and waited. We got: Pandan Mochi Pancakes $18.95 Ube Chicken and Waffles $18.95 Pandan-monium (n/a) $9 We didn't go for the viral items, but we appreciate the fusion twist. The food was good. Nothing exceptional. Perhaps it's because what we ordered? Perhaps it's because social media had hyped it up? Who knows. I think if you're in the area with family or want to meet up with friends and don't want to pay for parking then go check them out. But probably make reservations if you go. read more

Barrel & Bacon - Chicken and ube waffle - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This place was good, but it didn't wow me as much as these reviews made it seem out to be. We made a reservation for a very late brunch, and were able to get seated immediately. I got the ube chicken and waffles, which was a smaller portion than I expected given the price. The waffle was extremely purple, but didn't really taste like ube at all. Though, it was fluffy and cooked well with a nice flavor still. The chicken was deeply fried and still pretty juicy, and I think the hot honey syrup on the side was what really tied it all together - that was delicious! I wasn't a big fan of the slaw on top though, it was a little to acidic / sour for my taste. The ambiance in here is nice, with a rustic feel to it. I appreciate the attentive service, but it was a little much here as we didn't really need our still half-full cups of water refilled to the brim every time we took a sip. It was all friendly of course though :) read more

A unique casual dining spot that offers a near perfect marriage of Filipino flavors to the favorite American food: burgers and fried chicken. Ube, the favorite asian yam, is ever present on their offerings. I got the drink on the special menu: up up and Ube. The coconut flavor is reminiscent of piña colada, a sweet tropical concoction that transports you to a warm and sunny beach front. In hind sight, I think next time I'll try other cocktails that don't share the same sweet notes as their food. We started with the sinful tots. As big fans of tots and fries, these are exceptionally yummy covered in cheese and bacon jam. To be fair, few things can taste bad covered in bacon jam. For main dishes we got the Ube waffles and chicken, and the B&B signature burger (on brioche instead of the regular pretzel bun). The chicken katsu is as delicious as is looks on the many review pictures. Crunchy without being dry. The ube waffle was ok, as we prefer crunchier texture, but it has good ube flavor. My burger was cooked perfectly and wonderfully covered in onion jam... I think by now you get the drift that the very clever operator here sets themselves apart with these delicious jams. A slight negative was the salad was overdressed. We saw some incredible desserts being served by the portions of our meals are so generous we just didn't have room for them. Service here was very prompt and super friendly. Fun music, kind of sports bar vibe. You can tell this restaurant was built with lots of love and care. It shows in their food and atmosphere. We are already planning to go back to try other dishes. read more

Tucked away off of Elliott Ave W, Barrel & Bacon is in an interesting row of businesses including a distillery and line dancing spot (but plenty of free parking too:)). There is very little signage so it does feel like a speakeasy in a way. Once inside, there is a small dining room, bar and a couple of TVs. The menu is comfort food with a Filipino touch, the bar and taps are well-stocked, and the drinks are some of the best, all at a fair price and delivered with great service. Start off with the sinful tots - tater tots tossed in truffle oil, shredded cheese, our bacon jam with pepperoncini and chipotle ranch. Tastes so good, and they also come in a smaller size for HH. Another great starter is the SIlly Gang wings, which is a play on sinigang (tamarind) sauce. The wings are crisp, sticky, sweet and a bit sour and just so good. The longanisa nachos are great for sharing and the the chicken longanisa is a nice touch that makes this a little lighter than beef or pork nachos. I also loved the burger here, with the onion jam, pretzel bun and bacon (of course). It's a decent sized burger but not too high so one can eat this easily. Stop by Whiskey Wednesday to try a nice bottle at a great price. They also do taquitos on Wednesdays which were a great snack as a second dinner one recent night. As for cocktails, they do have a barrel aged Manhattan which hit the spot. And you can't go wrong with a rye old fashioned. But the menu has a good selection of original cocktails or classics with a twist, as well as 8-10 taps with drafts from the PNW. The whole operation is run by a small team, who are very welcoming and passionate about their place, and during the past few visits, I have had a great time chatting with Gary and Angela. I love smaller businesses like Barrel & Bacon, and it's definitely worth a visit! read more
