We don't even drink beer., But the view, the…read moregenerally friendly and welcoming staff - and the only reason this is a four star instead of a five star is due to the anomaly of the one night we went in recently with friends from Bainbridge Island to show off seven seas only to have a fellow new to us "greet" us at 9:40 to tell us last call had already been called. He was nice enough to let us show our friends the space., But was already sweeping and closing, which, as a restaurant owner and Winebar owner, I can attest is a huge no-no. All winter we would drop in on Monday night after concert often as late as 9:45 with no to few other customers in the room and be warmly greeted and sold a couple of glasses of wine just so that we could chill a little bit but, we never stay very long. And the girls were always very welcome and friendly.. But after maybe 25 visits, we get this guy, in a room packed with people, not that late, not friendly, not sorry, so sadly we left, but did show our friends the beautiful patio with the spectacular steady water and full moon. We will be back, although it's been a long time now thanks to that guy, and look forward to giving a five star review because this place really is special and doesn't even need our good review because they are busy busy busy in a town with absolutely nothing going on. (We moved to Gig Harbor to put the gig in Gig Harbor, and we still will. But now that Anthony's has purchased the Tides Tavern, the Tides is open until 10 and is welcoming and friendly to people who show up all the way until 10 because they're good business people. Restaurant people, club owners, like us will never be the last people to leave so are very considerate about coming in late to a place.) .

Maybe I caught them on an off day, especially after reading some of the other reviews, but unfortunately the overall atmosphere felt a little unwelcoming. None of the employees seemed particularly happy to be there--there wasn't much smiling, conversation, or enthusiasm. I ordered a single smash burger, and the food came out pretty quickly. The burger smelled amazing while it was cooking, which had me looking forward to a flavorful smash burger. Unfortunately, it was almost completely lacking in flavor. It tasted like they may have forgotten to season the meat. I really wanted to enjoy this place, and maybe I just caught them on a bad day, but based on my experience, it was just an average visit.

The Washington Beer Blog states that Redd Dog is moving in later in 2026 and will be running a brewery at this location. It's a turnkey scenario. Redd Dog is already present in Tacoma as a U Pour taphouse on 6th Avenue hosting guest taps from other breweries but with them making the move here it is going to be a brewery. It's sad to see Black Fleet close. Their beers were very refreshing and they later on made craft sodas which were fantastic. They will be deeply missed!

This is actual brewery so they sell their beer can packs to go, as well as some Merch (apparels etc). Newest second location (Narrows Tasting Room) recently opened on Proctor district as well. If I were to get crazy picky, tasting of 1.0oz beer is still going to cost you a dollar. There's no "taking a sip" to see if you wanna commit to ordering a full pint, so just keep that in mind. My favorite here is Narrows Lager and Summer Lager is great too, and if you're an IPA drinker, Tempest IPA is a good option. They also do not prep food here so they got a Chex Mix + Pub Mix snack for $4.00 for about a small bowl, and some charcuterie boards. You can order some food downstairs/next door from Boathouse19 and or bring a small snack bag to nibble on. Parking is ample but can get filled very quickly, especially during Summer time when lots of wedding and other events are happening at the Narrows Marina warehouse, and I also see some food trucks parked by exclusively for those events from time to time. Lastly, they have non-alcoholic beers too! It's not their own, but I've seen them pour "Bero" canned non-alcoholic beer, so you do not need to be a beer drinker to enjoy the space here, but this place is 21+ only, which is another reason I love it here. Oh and last but not least, they have several rooms for event rentals, so I've seen many retirement, birthday parties and other events hosted in those rooms. Pretty cool! The room next to the bar area can be a bit noisy because of the exhaust fan running that is connected to the brewery room. All in all, a great brewery tucked in on the Narrows Marina that's worth a visit if you're in the area, and you might find me here too, just hanging out on a Summer evening : )

Walking along First Avenue in Seattle Washington, I happen to notice an old vacant building…read moresqueezed between two giant skyscrapers . It seemed out of place next to all the new modern buildings and business on the block. This was the only original building on the block. The whole block is redeveloped with new apartments/ condo's / offices / restaurants and museums. What story does this building have to tell ? This building was designed by a local Seattle architect by the name of Willian E. Boone . and completed in 1890 right after the "Great Fire of 1889 " and "YES "William E. Boone is a direct descendent of Daniel Boone. It architecture embraces (QueenAnne/Richardsonian Romanesque Style.) It is officially known as the " Seven Seas Building". Other names the building was known by were "Hotel Vendôme / Post Edward Building / New Hotel Vendom/ Salton Hotel and lastly the " Lusty Lady ". After being vacant since 1985, there is new interest by an local Seattle development company ( Revolve). Their plans are to revitalize this building into a new boutique hotel, with all of its original charm & character . What a happy ending to this story ! Thanks for reading ! Live/Love/Travel !

We didn't eat here so I can't speak to the food but the menu does sound decent. We're big sandwich people and that seems to be their speciality, so we'd definitely come back to try those!
