Airport food is almost always WAY too expensive and usually pretty disappointing, which is why I normally plan ahead and bring something with me. That was not really an option after getting off a cruise with a 4 hour wait for our flight - so airport food it was. Gah. Seattle airport is way too crowded. But I found this little gem tucked away outside Terminal B, and it turned out to be a pretty great, albeit expensive, lunch. It is a little tricky to find. You have to take an elevator up to the second floor, but once you get there, it is worth the effort. Our server was T, Tee, Tea? I honestly have no idea how he spells it, but he was enthusiastic, friendly and quick with recommendations. He suggested adding avocado to our club sandwich, and that was a GREAT call. We also asked to substitute onion rings for the fries for an upcharge. He forgot, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise because the regular fries are AWESOME. Seriously, don't mess with them. The club sandwich and fries were easily enough food for two people. The damage? About $30 with tip. For airport food, that still feels painful, but at least this was actually GOOD. And there is another reason to seek this place out. My husband is a private pilot, so he was completely entertained by the fact that you can sit at the counter and watch planes take off from a level above the ground. Honestly, that may have been the best part. Great little spot, especially if you need to escape the madness of the main terminal for a while. read more

The western burger was amazing. Do not try the mocktail that is supposed to be an old fashioned. Best way to describe it was that it tasted like bubblegum, and it was $20. I probably should have gotten a real old fashioned for the price. I'm not sure what was special about the mocktail for that amount of money. Just buy the real alcoholic drink! The fries were great, a thick curly type. Great views on the upper deck read more

Well I'm sure glad they are just about done finishing up SeaTac airport terminal upgrades! After seeing all the new places to eat. I opted for Brewtop Social vs waiting 30+ minutes to be seated. I'd seen the enticing menu at the base of the staircases leading to the eating area, so I climbed the flight of stairs, yup goofy me they had an elevator around the corner!! Oops!! After climbing the stairs it was open seating, the bar seats faced into the bar not overlooking terminal or airfield. I opted for a view of the airfield, little did I realize this was family seating. After reviewing the menu again I decided on the LOAD BAKED POTATO SOUP and a hard cider from a local Puget Sound brewery. The service was fast to drop a glass of ice water, a since the A/C in terminal wasn't working the water was good to start. The soup arrived fast, but I was shocked when they didn't offer crackers or bread to accompany it! Before I could start eating I had to request/wait for a clean spoon as I don't like food caked my tea spoon (they don't have soup spoons). The cool (Not Ice cold) hard cider was served in a can, or served with frozen mug. What is hard to swallow was the 225% markup on the hard cider. The atmosphere/decor was pretty easy going. I'll remember next time to find a place to eat where kids don't run freely. Sorry, I forgot to get photos to present to you all. Overall, they could probably do some seating upgrades for the bar and family seating areas. read more

05/25/2026 My friend and I had some time waiting for our flight at SeaTac, so we wanted to get breakfast/brunch. Walked around and found this spot that was still serving breakfast for a few minutes. Took the elevator up since it's on the second level and we had luggage. We got seated right away, but it took a little bit to flag our server down. Thankfully we were able to get our breakfast order in just in time. We both got the Brew Top-of-the-morning Breakfast. It's a standard breakfast dish, except for their "sidewinder fries". The fries had a funky shape and were crispy. We had a nice view of the airplanes on the taxiway and runway. Overall the meal was decent, but a steep $24. read more

Brewtop Social - Brew Top-of-the-Morning Breakfast - Brewpubs Near Me - SeaTac, Washington

Brewtop Social is a new to me airport stop. I had time to kill before a recent flight and was enticed by the menu and the cute string lights so up the stairs to the fun loft area I went. I like that this spot has a little bit of a PNW personality and isn't as bland as other spots in the airport. Service was great and everything came out quickly during my visit. They have a solid beer menu with great local options. I had a hazy from local brewery Logan Brewing that was great and the perfect color for a hazy - you know it's good when it's the right hue! I will say that their food is ridiculously, unreasonably priced. Lots of the food sounds really good but I didn't want anything too heavy so I opted for a Blackened Chicken Cobb Salad. The salad was refreshing, good quality, and the chicken was cooked well. That said, I don't think it needed to be a $20 salad. I guess given that it's the airport it makes sense, it just seemed pretty pricey to me. It's a good little spot to stop before your flight, just anticipate some steep pricing. :) read more

Best chicken sandwich and cheese curds. And best beer selection! Friendly service. Highly recommend

I ordered the club sandwich. $28 for triangle kid shaped sandwich and fries. Food tastes fine, prices are crazy. read more

Brewtop Social - Menu. Prices went up again! - Brewpubs Near Me - SeaTac, Washington

I walked in and seated myself. A server almost immediately brought me menus. I wasn't certain on the beer, but he easily recommended me something and I enjoyed it. The food wasn't exactly cheap, and none of the stuff I was considering ordering had reviews here lol so I went safe with the loaded fries. It wasn't bad. Hot, crispy, savory twister fries. What cheese sauce I could taste was REALLY GOOD... unfortunately, it was 75% Ranch and only 25% cheese. I'd much rather have the reverse... the baskets have a sauce ring, the ranch could've gone there. Service was well paced and checkout was easy. read more

Have a long layover? This isn't a bad choice to stop at. The food is a bit overpriced for the quality but the beer offers a level of comfort that is expected from a west coast brewery. The curds won't blow you away but will meet the moment. read more

Brewtop Social - Cheese curds - Brewpubs Near Me - SeaTac, Washington

Ordered: Cobb salad with chicken, chicken sandwich with buffalo sauce, and side of cheese curds. Cooked to order. Very friendly service from Trung, obviously attentive and friendly. Went the extra mile. Clean tables. Uncomfortable chairs and loud music were less than deal. Used Priority Pass benefits, making the total cost quite reasonable. Have to take elevator or steep steps to come, go, and visit restroom. Overall pleased. read more

A great spot to grab a bite during a layover or at the start of your trip at the Seattle airport! They have a good selection of drinks and food. It's a bit on the pricer side, but that's typical for airport restaurants. The service was quick, we didn't have to wait long for our food. Our server was very attentive and kept our waters refilled, which was nice. There's open seating, and an elevator provides access to the dining area. It's fun to oversee the tarmac and watch planes operate and takeoff. read more

As expected for an airport bar, it's a bit pricey. Some of that can be offset if you are a Priority Pass member, as this is one of the very few places in SEA that you can use your benefit - check first though, this place only works for certain types of memberships. The view is great, you can see flight operations for multiple gates and the active runway while you enjoy food and drink. The food is also surprisingly good as well so all in all, this is a great place to waste some spare time in SEA airport. My service was very friendly as well. Next time I fly through, I will be sure to pop in for at least a beer to enjoy the view for a bit. read more

You'll find them in the loft area of the large atrium via either the staircase or glass elevator. I've found myself here twice on long rerouted layovers. Since they're open until midnight, I'm happy to have found a place to relax! I haven't had a bad beer here and they offer both a 16 and 20oz. They usually have a game up on their two large TVs and service is quick and friendly. It's a nice place to hide out when you're tired and need a place to unwind. I will definitely return. read more

Brewtop Social - Turkey Club with some spiral cut steak fries. Make a mayo, ketchup and hot sauce dip for them since they are too awesome for just ketchup. - Brewpubs Near Me - SeaTac, Washington

Came here before our flight for some beers. It was a little hard to figure out how service worked. We were told to seat ourselves at the to-go register and then waited around 10 minutes as we watched many servers pass us by. We wound up ordering at the register and a server did come by. Once we had a server, service was friendly and the beer was good. The decor is very cute and gives good views of the runways outside. Would recommend as a cool spot to hang out prior to a flight! read more

2nd floor casual restaurant in SEATAC. Great spot to get away from airport chaos and watch the airplanes take off. Service was slow but I wasn't in a rush. I had a few hours before my flight. I went to the bar twice to order a beer and they said I had to order with the waiter who just never came. When I finally flagged one down he said he thought I had left and the table I picked was only for large parties. I switched tables and finally ordered a beer sampler and loaded fries. Of course it's the airport so it's overpriced lol beers were just ok for me. Fries were good. I really liked being able to watch the planes take off. read more

3.5/5 stars. Really attentive service! Not a bad option for airport food, but obviously on the pricier side. My potato and leek soup was surprisingly small for $16, was hoping it would be a bowl rather than a cup. Heavy serving of potato, cheese, and bacon. The ambience was the best! Love staring out the large window and seeing the clouds and planes go by. It's a nice place to pass time and it's quieter since it's upstairs. You have to take the elevator up and the restrooms are downstairs. Overall a safe option! read more

Favorite place in the Sea/Tac Airport! I always make sure I have time to stop for a quick bite and a Brew when I am traveling through! Song is a server here that has waited on me before and he is great! Sitting upstairs above the just and bustle is a great way to relax pre- flight! read more

Not many options if you're gluten free. This is what $25 gets you. Not exactly what one would call a wrap. No sides that aren't battered and fried except for the $6.50 side salad upsell. No thanks. Plus they salted the crap out of it. Service was good. read more

This is one of the most unique spots in SeaTac, IMO. It is essentially on the rooftop of Salty's. You can come up the stairs or elevator to a view that overlooks the airport terminal. On one side there is floor to ceiling windows with a view to the runway and flight operations. I like the layout, there is a bar area, some odd levels platform, counters overlooking the terminal and tables in between. This last time I came up and seated myself. After a few minutes I was greeted by a very friendly server (Tarik) and the service was fairly prompt and always with a smile. I was a little bummed that most of the menu looked heavy with the exception of the salads. You can sub a salad on the side of the sandwich but it's an extra $6 and with airport prices, forget it! I started with the Kingdome Kolsch. It was crisp, with just a mild bitterness, and a clean refreshing finish. I opted for the fish and chips. It comes with sidewinder fries, obviously a name reflecting their unique shape. They were satisfyingly crispy, with a perfectly chewy middle and perfectly seasoned. For not wanting fries, I ate as many as I could! The piece of fish was massive, like a femur bone! The batter was crispy and crunchy on the outside, but also quite dense and spongy on the inside. The fish was firm, mild, and tasty. Maybe a little buttery. So overall, quite dense food but very addictive! It was the kind of meal you love when it's happening but slightly regret afterwards, leaving me feeling nearly sluggish. I would easily come back but probably try a salad, unless I have my traveling partner, then I would absolutely order this again and split it! Not a bad way to save a little at the airport. read more

This brewpub, located past Security Checkpoint 3 at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, has become my go-to stop when traveling to or from Coupeville on Whidbey Island. The biggest draw for me--beyond the wide selection of Washington beers--is the incredible view. Situated east of runways 16/34, it's a prime location for plane spotting, with Horizon Air operating just below. Like all airport dining, Brewtop Social isn't cheap, but I find the view alone worth the price of food and drink. A 16oz beer runs about $13, while a 20oz will cost you $16. Seating is open, located on the mezzanine level above the bustling terminal. From here, you overlook security and a variety of restaurants below. There's also a small bar at the top of the stairs. The staff is consistently attentive, promptly bringing menus and checking in. In all my visits, I've never experienced poor service. The food is solid. I always enjoyed their grilled cheese and tomato soup, but it seems the menu has been updated since my last visit in December 2024. This time, I opted for the crispy chicken sandwich--a hefty, deep-fried chicken breast that was juicy and flavorful, served with thick-cut fries. There are plenty of new menu items I haven't tried yet. The ambiance isn't much to speak of, as noise from the lower levels tends to rise. You'll often find live music below, and TVs near the bar and grill area. But for me, the massive floor-to-ceiling windows make this spot a must-visit. I highly recommend it, no matter which terminal you're flying out of. read more

Not bad, stopped by this place after landing in Seattle. This was one of the three dining options available with the Priority Pass. It is open-seating, so you arrive, pick a seat, and a waiter will come eventually. We ordered Shrimp Tacos, Bulgogi Philly, Asian Chop Chop Salad, Brisket Chili, and Roasted Tomato Bisque. I wanted to order coffee, but they only have that during the mornings :( The soups were great though and hit the spot after our flight. I don't think there was enough dressing for the salad, and it took a while for our server to come back so we couldn't ask for more. Overall, it was a decent option for dining in the airport. read more

Seated quickly like a VIP lounge above Salty's (take stairs or elevator up) in the post-security Central Terminal (between Concourses B & C), this pub has panoramic airfield views, Olympic Mountain peeks visible on clear days, and a breezy mezzanine setup perfect for people-watching flights. The local PNW brews were good, food was good. Good place for travelers or groups killing time--way better than the usual terminal slush. Service took time but food was good and fresh- so worth it read more

Hidden in the center of the Sea-Tac airport, up top with a great view! We had the salmon tacos and smoked wings with buffalo. The wings were excellent and the smoking and light fry definitely competes with the est sports bars, but this is an airport!! Fish tacos were average. I think what we loved most is we got right in (were at Salty's right below) and the staff was fast and friendly! Prices were reasonable, but still airport. Definitely taking a step up above and taking with 9/10 times over Salty's!!! read more

Solid 4-stars for a place to eat in SeaTac! If you have Priority Pass, it will get you a cool $28 off your bill! In fact, if you fly through SeaTac a lot, Priority Pass practically pays for itself! The tap selection is fantastic. FINALLY a place in SeaTac with decent drafts! You can also get some incredible views of the planes with the Olympics in the background. The food is...above average airport food. I will say that the chicken that comes on the salads is fried fresh and way better than the boring bleach-white chicken you get on most airport cesars. read more

For a big beer fan, this is one of the most fun places I've been to in an airport. If you find yourself with too much time in SEA and want a casual place to hang out and have some beers, this is it. It's located in the main terminal area and is upstairs but open to view the airport hustle and bustle below, or along the giant windows to watch planes take off and land. It was designed as a gastropub, with a great local beer list and pub foods. Almost everything was fried so I opted not to eat here, but had a few drinks. You can seat yourself; they have tables of various sizes plus bar seating along the windows and under the metal trees, or you can sit along the bar area that's semi-enclosed with TVs more like a real bar. The menu prices are reasonable, slightly higher as it's in an airport. I was thankful for a great selection of beers and tried a few. They offer a tasting flight of 3 for a lower price, but you can't choose which ones. They also have an accompanying appetizer sampler as well, combining the two is the best deal. Prices for full beers are expensive, but it's a large amount and glasses and lines were clean - everything tasted super fresh. I had two great experiences with server Aliyah, who was attentive and friendly. I also appreciated having her watch my bags a couple times to use the restroom (you have to go downstairs), as that's always an annoyance being a solo traveler. If you're in SEA and looking for a beer and fun place to hang out, this is it. read more

If you have Priority Pass, you are able to have $28 credited towards your bill. I came on an early Sunday morning and there was no line and I had my choice of seats. I selected a single seat that had an amazing view of the flightline. Staff were super quick to get to me and get my order and a steaming hot cup of coffee. I ordered the Brewtop of the morning breakfast plate. Scrambled eggs, home fried potatoes, bacon, and sourdough bread. The portion was pretty good and my bacon was cooked perfectly. The entire meal was covered by the priority pass credit. I made sure to leave a decent tip as the server was very kind and fast. read more

1/18/2024 11am -I was a little hesitant about this place based on reading the reviews about the service. However, I just got the Priority Pass for the discount so I didn't have anything to loss. My server was Cheryl, and she was super friendly and attentive! Checked up on me multiple times and is very personable. Food is priced around $20 a dish. Not crazy for an airport. Ordered the chicken sandwich and the meat was good, little too overly fried on the edges. The fries are the little curly jojo types. Delicous! Kolsh beer is $12 a pint. Pricey, but you get a nice view of the airport with it. Great place to hang out and work if you need to, plenty of outlets around. read more

This place has "seat yourself" policy, which is fine. But it took us awhile to get someone to approach us, and when they did, there were at least 2 people approaching us and taking our orders. Don't get me wrong, they were really, really kind and sweet! But it's a little confusing. Place was a little hidden, it's on the mezzanine above Salty's and they have limited seating. The good part is you get to see the plane as you sit so it was a good view. It was crowded but still acceptable. Food... here is why I gave only 4 stars. The food was a little pricey, and the portion was a little too small for what it's worth. It might be because I take it to-go (so it may not be presented properly and looked so small?) But it was a little burnt because the curds were oozing out in the fryer :( but the batter was really good though! I might come and visit again to try out their other dishes. read more

Brewtop Social - Cheese curds - Brewpubs Near Me - SeaTac, Washington

Excellent spot for an airport meal. The space is open, music in the background, great views out of the many windows. It has a nice vibe. Trung was our server - he greeted us right when we walked in and promptly got us water. He was quite attentive throughout. We ordered cheese curds - they come with a "spicy apricot" dipping sauce that we didn't find spicy (and I'm whimpy so that's saying something) and we also got a side of their ranch. It's not your typical ranch but still good. We also shared a potato soup and Caesar salad. I found the light amount of dressing on the salad perfect but Randy got a side of more dressing for his half. It wasn't very caesary dressing flavored but it was still good. Would definitely come here again. read more

They accept Priority Pass, order at the counter and they will bring it out to you. Just missed the breakfast menu which ended at 10, so had to go with the diminished lunch menu. Decided on the Brewtop Signature flatbread and Pulled Pork Sliders. I didn't get a chance to try the flatbread, but it looked good. The pulled pork sliders are decent. Nothing amazing, but will fill you up and has some good taste to it. Probably a bit expensive for what you get. read more

The service staff are super nice. And the food is consistently good. However, we went late this week and got takeout. We only ordered two items and they got the modifiers right (all sauces on the side). BUT they gabe us the wrong burger. Went again today. One server but it wasn't busy. We arrived first and three tables came after. Server served all of them before coming to us. (All the other tables were Caucasian, just sayin'). Too bad. This is a great chill setup. But two strikes out of four visits .... We ordered a sandwich and a classic burger with onion rings. read more

I came to Brewtop Social because they're a part of the Priority Pass restaurants, but I would gladly come here without it too. From the atmosphere to the vibe to the customer service, this made for a great stop while waiting for your flight. First of all, it's located upstairs in the central terminal, so you'll need to go up the elevators or stairs. Once on top, you pick your own seat with many of them overlooking the airport, which was a nice view. Plus, they created such an outdoorsy ambiance with the string lights too. There's also charging stations, which was convenient. I ordered the Flight & Bite ($22.50), which comes with a sampler of 3 appetizers and 3 beers --that's a pretty good deal, especially at an airport! The beer flight was a small pairing of 5oz pours, but honestly the perfect amount for me. For the appetizers, it came with Bavarian pretzels, beer battered cheese curds, and chicken wings. There were dippings for each and they left me pretty stuffed. I enjoyed the wings most as the Garlic Chili had a nice kick of flavor. Best of all was how friendly my waitress was and kept checking on me as well. read more
