Good ol' 'couv is beginning to hit a beer-stride. It's no Beervana, but it's a table setter for the big hitter south of the Columbia River. Abstain from getting in Stephen King-like traffic and hit FDT. I figured the food would be pedestrian, but noooooo! A panini with crunchy peanut butter, fig jam, and mozzarella? Sounds bizarre, yes? On the menu it can be identified as, Riley's High Thoughts Panino. And while it may be bizarre sounding, it's amazingly good as panini's go. The way the tables are arranged could easily be changed to make the entry space more inviting, and I always vote against stools with no backs. I need a Strother Martin stool! The staff is convivial and they know their beer. Example: I gave them an idea what style IPA I preferred and the bar man enthusiastically offered four options. Worthy of Haiku!

Great staff, great beer selection. Beer knowledge is top notch and hands down the best tap house in the North bank! Been coming here since they opened and the food is amazing as is the choice of beers. read more

Super fun people, great beer selection and delish food. Service was outstanding! Had the hummus and chips - yumza. Great find in a strip mall near the interstate. read more

First time in and already I know I'll be back; good beer/selection and although I didn't have any food i could smell it as soon as i walked in -the menu selection confirms that THIS is the spot. Count me in. read more

It's in a strip mall, it's small, but packs a punch for what little it might appear to offer. I've yet to order food here, but the beer menu is a nice variety. In a really busy intersection of the freeway so easy enough to get to but parking can be tricky. read more

This place was so cool and had a good beer selection. They can whatever 16oz beer you want so you can take a fresh drafted beer home with you. They allow dogs outside as well! The food was a little spendy so we didn't get anything, but I'd definitely come here again sometime. read more

Final Draft Taphouse - Pubs Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Cozy little place and a reasonable selection of good beers. We didn't eat here but other peoples plates looked appetizing. Parking in front can be tricky, but for just a few extra steps, look around the corner. read more

Cozy, unpretentious atmosphere. Stellar draught selection. Simple menu, but executed to perfection. Great prices with a generous rewards program on top of it. Mike and the rest of the staff are very friendly and attentive. As a bartender, this is just the kinda place you want to work at, then hang out on your time off. This place is about as ideal as one could hope for on this side of the Columbia River. Check it out! read more

Yeah buddy ! Here bright and early to sample some nectar of the gods ! Not a bad brew in the house. Sample 4 different ones then buy a pint

So happy to stumble upon this new taphouse so close to home. We were pleasantly surprised by the great beer selection and menu items which pair well with the beer. The portions are decent. We had the meat and cheese plate and nuts and olives. Nicole was our awesome bartender and she was really helpful with navigating us through the beer options. The ambiance is perfect for a taphouse in my opinion. Met some cool people and tried some great beer and food. read more

We intended to try this place for happy hour and probably first quarter of the Seahawks/Kansas City game . We left after about 40 mins to get home on time for kickoff Where to start? Music is so loud that you have to shout over the heavy metal. With 30 taps you would think that the bartender would chat us up to see what we liked. Nope. We tried to order food when we finally decided on our own what we wanted to drink . She was actually talking to other customers while serving us so we had to raise our voices to get her attention . The beer was warm, the cider tasted soapy, the chips were stale and the salsa was mediocre. The food server was sullen and spent her time sitting in the customer section . No one asked us how we liked our food and drink. When we asked for our check, the bartender joked there was a 3 drink minimum. Seriously? That's the first thing she said to us since we ordered . We were hugely disappointed because we have been looking for a local . The search continues. read more

Love this place! So friendly. AWESOME beer choices, great food, and amazing staff! We love coming in. Thanks for keeping vancouver beered, Mike and Kimberly!! read more

Would be nice if this place opened before 3pm especially on Friday. Every time I've been by there it's closed.

This place is just great! The owners run the taps and they are very friendly, energetic, and funny. The rotation of taps is always interesting and very good. They have events on what seems like every night of the week so it's also a fun place to go meet a group of friends. I haven't had everything on the menu but what I've had has been very good. Don't be fooled by it's strip mall-like location -- Final Draft is fantastic! read more

I haven't tried any of the food yet- but 5 stars from me for selection and extremely friendly service. Also love that they allow dogs on the patio. read more

Go here for beer! Kim and Mike are kick ass people and do so much for the local craft beer community. Stellar service and the selection is awesome! They have outdoor seating, to go beer, and great convos! read more

Great beer, super chill environment, sweet music, great bartenders. I haven't tried the food yet so I can't comment on that, but this place is pretty awesome nonetheless. You should definitely check it out! read more

I don't even know where to start without sounding like a star struck teenager in love. This place is amazing, not only for their "at home" feel, but amazing food and beer selection. Mike and Kimberly have done a fantastic job of me into a beer lover!!! I'm always greeted with a huge hello and smile every time I walk in the door, and when I just cannot decide on a beer, Mike, and Kim are quick to offer suggestions or pour a sample. This is hands down the BEST tap house I've ever been to!!!! read more

My husband and I love this place! It's a nice little place to grab a beer and if your hungry some food. It's relaxing and everyone who works there is friendly. They always keep my drink filled and know their drinks! I always drink their ciders which are sooo good. I would recommend getting the grandmimosa if it's there. Its sweet and rasr just like a mimosa! They alternate their drinks and there is always a new one any time we go on. We have been there alot and every single time is great. read more

Between the beer selection and the absolutely welcoming bartenders, I can't decide what to rave about more. I had to convince my coworker to go because the location is in a strip mall, and we both are so glad I did. This is a place I would be at often if I was local. read more

Love this place. We come once or twice a week because the beer selection is amazing, the bartenders are friendly and very knowledgeable about their beer. The atmosphere is inviting and the food is yummy!! Best place in the area. read more

Dropped in after leaving best buy. I was in town visiting my mother and I wanted to grab a beer on my way home. This place was incredibly inviting. Excellent selection of beer! The server was very helpful. Neat little place. read more

Really nice place to stop and get a drink. Nicely set up, clean and inviting. They have a pretty decent tap list with something for everyone. Riley (not sure how he spelled it!) is a great bartender and made killer recommendations. We will be back :) read more

I work at Les schwab right down the street. This is my go to spot for grabbing a beer or two after work. The staff are friendly. The music is killer, and the beer selection is vast. One of my favorite taphouses. read more

This place will be on my must visit tap house list when I'm in Portland or Vancouver, the beer selections are to die for and the meat and cheese plate is a must! Say hello to Mike and Kim they will be famous for thier kindness and service. Come and say hello, you won't regret it. read more

I adore this brewery! The interior is beautifully designed, very upscale - but the atmosphere is warm and friendly! Huge selection of eclectic brews. The owners are down to earth very welcoming people. Twice I had the grilled cheese sandwich and it was delicious - thank you for adding the pickle! We ended up here last night after waiting 45 for tacos at FlyBoy Brewery and walked away hungry, I had food in front of me in 5 minutes. Definitely, one of my favorite tap house! read more

This place is quaint, decent beer on tap, the food menu....I guess I see where they are going, but I feel like it is more suited to a craft cocktail bar and not a beer place. I couldn't really find anything I wanted to eat so we left and went to a place that had better food AND beer. Nice little place, good location except for the speeding cars trying to get to Starbucks makes it kinda hard to get in and out of. The look and feel of the place are good, I wish them the best of success, but I do not see it as must travel to destination. They have a great start, they just need.....more..... read more

Awesome local tap house with a great selection of beers. Friendly staff. Great place to stop for a good micro brew.

Been here a few times since it opened..good selection of beer and ciders...ordered the meat and cheese plate and was pleasantly impressed! This is surely in my 'go-to' list of places for date nights. read more

Incredible knowledge in all beer, well rounded beer menu and the small plates they have are FIRE! I highly recommend the salmon over baguette! Was filling and so so tasty! Prices were reasonable as well couldn't ask for a better tap house to open up in the area! read more
