Great place to hang out to have a beer and play some indoor golf in a warehouse type of setting. It was a very casual and relaxing place to hang out. They even allow your pet doggies to visit. There's a wide selection of local brews, which I love. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The guys at the bar helped me make my beer choice. We purchased a round of golf after grabbing a pint of beer. The beer helps loosen you up. You're provided with a scorecard and a pencil. There are several colors of golf balls. I chose the yellow smiley ball... Grabbed a putter and went my merry way. They have mini tables at each hole so you can set your beer on when taking your turn. The courses are decorated with kegs and in some cases the kegs are part of the course. They are not very easy courses, which made it even more challenging and fun. We hung out for a bit after the round of golf to have more beer. The place does get busy but it's a fun environment. read more

Flatstick Pub - One of the holes at the Flatstick Pub - Mini Golf Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

I almost feel nervous writing this review considering the 5-star overall rating that Flatstick Pub currently has. Clearly people love this place, and that's okay, but it's not for me. While I think the idea is phenomenal, I do not enjoy the current setup. Flatstick Pub's big draw is that it has local beers on tap and mini golf in the bar. Yes, the beer is 100% Washington brewed and that is awesome. I probably would even consider going up a star if I was a beer drinker and found the taps to be amazing, but as a cider drinker I instead find it very lacking. With 20+ taps they typically only have ONE cider and it's usually something very off-the-wall like a black pepper cider. I just don't understand why they don't choose to cater to more of their customer base. The Pub also has food but it's a small refrigerator with pre-made sandwiches and such. There is nothing fresh which is kind of a bummer. The golf, which should be the star, is a awful. It's maybe the worst mini golf course I have ever played. It is not interesting and it's extremely difficult - to the point of not being able to actually get par unless you cheat. I would love to play a fun mini golf course with a drink in hand but this course leaves me going through the motions and feeling like I wasted my time. I've played twice and never enjoyed my round of golf very much. They also have a couple of board games on a shelf but they just haven't made an effort to really make that a focal point. It's an afterthought and the quality of the games shows. I really wanted to love this place but I just can't. If I'm being honest, I won't go back until they change the golf. Maybe you'll love it, but I don't. read more

What a fun pub! Stumbled in here on a day trip in Kirkland - I'd been curious about this place, as I have several friends who swear by it, so I'm glad I finally got to see what all the fuss was about. We ended up just splitting a sampler - they have a fantastic selection of beers & ciders, so it was fun to try some local ones we haven't had the chance to yet. We didn't end up playing any of the games, but definitely will next time. Shout out on the customer service front: the bartender accidentally charged me for two rounds of mini golf, and in addition to refunding me he also gave me passes for two rounds of free mini-golf. So, that was a nice & unexpected gesture! The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because I found it to be a bit dark & unappealing in here, ambiance-wise. We sat near the windows which was nice, but due to the location there are only windows on one wall and it's a long, narrow space so the back is quite dark & feels a bit dingy (though everything I saw was very clean). I'm excited to check out their new location in Pioneer Square! read more

Really cool place. I am a big fan of all the local beers, as I have not yet been to too many pubs around that focus on local breweries (maybe I haven't been looking hard enough). Either way, everything they had on the menu was local. The menus were are clever and tell you everything you need to know. They even have a meter that shows how much beer is left in the keg! I feel spoiled now and that every bar should have this sort of information displayed, just for fun. The bartender was extremely friendly and they had the beers out fast. I tried the beer flight, which was cool, and you get a sample of 5 different beers. Definitely worth it rather than trial-and-error with buying pints. The golf courses were creative and HARD. I liked it this way. This way you can keep coming back and trying to improve your score. Some of the holes could use a little more visual decoration, but the mechanics are there and the fun of having to plan out a shot is still there also. It's probably less maintenance for the owners since the pub is their main priority anyway. It's not trashy in any sense, just could be made a little better/more creative, with a story to tell for each hole. I will definitely be back. The location is nice and it's funner than just hanging out and drinking a beer. They still have that scene too, but it's nice to know you have options here (there is also bean bag throwing outside). It's a mini adult funland in the heart of Kirkland. read more

Ty or Todd, it was too loud in the bar. He was very unprofessional and discriminated my friends and I. I walked into the bar after showing up to Kirkland to see some friends and he cut us off as right as we walked in and sat down. I don't suggest coming here at all. read more

Lady and I had some free tickets for a round of mini golf that we won from our trip to the Seattle Bacon Eggs and Kegs so we decided to stop by for it. Apparently, we came on the wrong day... It was packed. It was a nice day out so of course a lot of people are out and about enjoying it, but I figure this place was gonna be a little bigger. I was wrong! If you don't make reservations on the weekend, you're definitely gonna wait. The girl at the check in was nice about it all and said they usually get busy on the weekends. We put our name on the list, which was only about a 30 minute wait. We grabbed our beers and just sat and hung out for awhile. BUT we changed our minds about waiting and wanting to play so we opted to go elsewhere and come back another day.... The place has a nice set up and for those waiting for to play golf, you can grab a beer and play some board games or just play with their mini games off to the side. Nice people though. Gonna come back when it's a little slower and not as packed to actually get a game of mini-golf in with some beer! read more

Great little gem in Kirkland. I really like the digital board of beer taps with quantity in kegs, social network check-ins and I really like that they only do local beer and wine!!! They have do have a beer sampler available so that is pretty cool as well because I really like trying local beer whenever I can. The prices for beer are competitive as well plus I noticed that they carried Bale Breaker Brewing cans. The concept of mini golf with bar is unique and cool. However the holes are little short and there is only 9 holes. At $6 a round I think that is a little high but I did notice they have unlimited night on Sundays. Possibly if they gave discounts on minimum beer orders or vice versa it would be more attractive. I will come back though when in Kirkland. read more

When I found out there was a bar that had mini-golf, I knew I had to go! We came when they opened around noon on a Saturday, which was great because it wasn't busy at all. They had over 20 beers on tap and let us sample a few until we decided which one we wanted. I got a porter and my husband got a pale ale. Both were very good. The only downside to this place is they have limited food (simple sandwiches and salads). However, you can order from other places and have it delivered so we got pizza from a place two doors down. After we had our beer and pizza, we did the mini-golf. I thought the min-golf was a little expensive with only 9 holes ($6 a person), but so worth it. The holes are not that big but they are very tricky, which I loved. Finally, we really appreciated their military discount. In sum, such a unique experience and a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon in Kirkland. read more

A good spot to play some mini golf and drink some beers. They have a cool course set up with lots of beer related items (basically I'm saying there are pony kegs involved). Awesome beer selection. They use the same system that one of my favorite bars in my college town of Eugene used (The Bier Stein). It gives a lot of info about the beers and the amount they have left as well (I tend to stay away from the ones that are almost out). I almost gave this place 4* because it was so crowded we couldn't get a table but service was awesome and I really enjoyed the experience. read more

It's a fun concept, and all the beer I've tried has been awesome. Staff is super friendly. It can get super busy in there, but that's a good thing. The putt-putt course is fairly small, but we were able to go through twice with our purchase, which made it fun, and it's great for competitive people. The Duffleboard game is awesome, too. The staff was nice enough to explain it to us when we clearly didn't read the board that explains the rules :-) We snuck upstairs and got takeout food at a local restaurant and brought it down to eat between games. They also have corn hole outside to play, and plenty of board games and things to do. And they allow dogs!!! Check it out for something fun and a little different than your typical bar outing. And all the beers are WA based, so it's nice to support local breweries and find a new favorite! read more

Slick stick Ambience: 4 Food: N/A Drinks: 5 Value: 3 The Flagstick is a slick new hangout in downtown Kirkland. It doors open out to the parking lot in Marina park. Welcoming passerby to stop in for a drink. The put-put part is arite, not the best or greatest, though enough fun (especially inebriated). They also have a bunch of board games and cards on hand for you. There are plenty of TV's close by so you can keep an eye on the Mariners or 'Hawks. The best part of this place is, by far, its unique beer selection and delivery system. Firstly, all beers are local to WA, all your local favorites (e.g. Hi-Fi, Black Raven, Bellevue Brewing), plus many from all across the state, from the islands to the cascades. Secondly, taking technology up a notch, they have a fancy beer tap system. The board is electronic; the price automatically adjusts according to the time (you never have to ask what happy hour prices are; when happy hour rolls around, the menu automatically changes). The board also monitors the tap; it electronically shows how much of the keg is left (from green, freshly tapped, to red, get it quick before it's gone). It's worthwhile just to take a peak. read more

Had a blast here, but we accidentally hit a guy in the head with a bean bag. He got angry and left, but we wanted to apologize for hitting him. We were having a good time throwing bean bags and he jumped into the line of fire, so it really was his fault. I really would have paid for his beer, but he walked out like a bitch. read more

Flatstick was really easy to work with for my company event. We rented out the mini golf portion and I want to believe everyone had fun? The course is a lot harder than it looks.. We were provided drink tickets & they came around once in a while to clean up during our event. Good price for the venue. You get to taste different beers before purchasing one. I also like that they're dog friendly! They also have board games for you to play. Be warned .. food isn't really served here (no kitchen) read more

I may be one of the few to think this, but I didn't really enjoy the experience here and likely won't return. We'd bought a groupon for two people to do all 9 holes and get two drinks. The drinks were fine (they only have one wit. Boo!) but it was fine. The holes themselves aren't as much "hard" as they are annoying. Random slots for your ball to fall into are everywhere. If there are any number of people around, you'll move slowly too - expect to sip your beer slowly if you want it to last until you're done. Maybe I wasn't in the right mood for this, but I got no enjoyment out of the mini-golf. As for the pub itself...it seemed like an average pub. Not sure I see the point to the giant TV telling you if they've blown a keg yet...I guess I just prefer a more traditional pub. read more

Pros: Inside Dog Friendly Miniature Golf Friend Hangout Beer Bar Lots of Parking Cons: No food menu - You will need bring your own food, order from a neighboring food establishment or order delivery. read more

What can you say about a place that has an excellent selection of beer and allows dogs. Love it! Short and sweet review.

I love this place due to the fact that it has a wide collection of beers on tap. Also it's a dog friendly place and a good place to go for some good games there read more

Doggy friendly. A lot of beer selection. Knowledgeable staff. Miniature golfing is also fun when you get a little glow.

I don't just hand out 5 stars idly. I ventured into Flatstick on a whim for a nice pint with a friend. The atmosphere is very casual and sporty without feeling like a sports bar. The emphasis here is definitely on Washington craft beer - and they only carry beer from Washington. The tap list is impressive, and the fancy tap board shows you the amount of beer left in each keg. As an added bonus, if your beer blows the keg then you are given a list of kegs available and you get to pick what they tap next. This is gives a very customer controlled feel to the tap list, and also adds an element of friendly competition among patrons. The mini golf is a great element as well, and taking your beers around the course is not only allowed, it's encouraged. My friend and I ended up getting sucked into a tournament (occurring every Sunday at 7:30) with a group of strangers, but ended up making friends with them by the end. My Sunday ended up being a total win. While they don't serve any food, they are following the new trend of allowing food to be delivered or carried in from anywhere else. Their main focus is beer and mini golf. And that's exactly what they deliver, and with gusto! read more

Quick and simple review: Awesome! Intimate space with 9 holes of mini golf, complete with beer tables at each hole (bc how can you be a respectable pub without that?!) amazing ciders as well for us beginner beer drinkers. I myself had the cherry cider I believe, and let me tell you, its amazing. Plenty of dogs were in there and they allow you to have outside food brought in. Someone had Zeeks deliver pizza right to their table while playing golf! Haha Its owner and ran by two brothers, both of which took the time to explain each beer and its taste and where in WA it came from. All in all, its a great little place, and honestly, I am excited to make it our new hang out! read more

This place it awesome!! Locally brewed beer and cider yes please!! The atmosphere is super fun! They have a 9 hole mini golf area and board games you can pass the time with! Great music playing! Just an all around fun place to go!! read more

This place was great, they were accommodating for a work party, they were very easy to work with! It has a fun atmosphere, mini golf, great beers and cider. Wish they had food but pizza place that delivers to them was pretty good, so no issues going hungry! read more

I have been to here from many occasions, from a birthday party, to trivia, to date night, to a Hawks viewing party... You name it, I've probably been here for it. Anyhow, this place is pretty fun! PROS: Local beers and cider - you can even try before you buy ALSO if you're DD (or knocked up) they do have a few NA drinks to enjoy. I am a big fan of dry soda so this really works out for me. Also, I am pretty sure I've seen people drinking wine here Dog Friendly - our pug, Walter is a BIG FAN! Trivia: Trivia nights here are really fun! Staff: Friendly staff who are helpful when you're having a hard time deciding what you want Board Games: They have a bunch of games there so you and your friends can just relax and have fun Mini Golf: I have done this a couple times and while it's not fancy by any means, it can be a lot of fun after a few beers CONS: Game days: It can be hard to watch games here - they don't have a lot of TVs and the ones they do have aren't very big. If someone tall stands in front of your table you're kind of SOL No Kitchen: BUT they do have a binder of menus for places that will deliver to the restaurant PLUS if they had a kitchen Walter wouldn't be able to come in No full bar: If you don't like beer, cider, or wine you may be out of luck I've seen people comment that at over 30 they feel really old coming here which I get. BUT I'm well over the 30 hump and don't really have any issues. read more

This place is super fun and great location. You have old video games , the putt putt course, Jenga , beer pong and more. The beer selection is always rotating and great selection. The staff is super friendly too. They have a yappy hour and yappy hour all day Sunday. I didn't give it 5 stars because it get so hot in there. They don't have central air and the two units they have do not put out that much air. read more

Had a lot of fun with my gf on date night here. Bartender was super knowledgable of craft beers, and directed us to a Guinness like beer. The mini golf inside is just a plus. We will be back for sure. Dogs are allowed, so if dogs aren't your thing, skip this place. read more

Great little spot in Kirkland to grab a pint and play indoor mini-golf. Huge selection of pints including ciders and even tasting flights so you can taste more. I wish they had more comfy seating and wasn't able to taste their bar food, but you can't go wrong with mini-golf and beer. I am terrible at it, but add beer and suddenly my 38 OVER PAR was hilarious! Still cracking up about tipsy wacks at balls. Bonus: They had board games too! Ha! Extreme Jenga after a few pints...YES!! We'll be back! read more

Great beer! This venue is smaller than the on in pioneer, but still fun. Great beer selection... bring your own food. Also... there's outside seating while you wait or finishing your beer post game. read more

I first came here for a Yelp Elite Event, and liked it so much that I've been back several times since. They have a fantastic selection of local microbrews on tap, which has changed a bit on each visit but never disappoints. There is some food available - just sandwiches and salads, but they are good. The mini golf is fun, with a beer-themed course and some very nice touches like little stands to hold your beers while you putt, and hooks to hold your handbags, too. I hosted a group here today, and the owner was terrific in handling the scheduling for the small group area. Since there's not a lot of food there, they keep menus so you can send out - our group had several pizzas. They have lots of board games on hand which is kind of fun, and plenty of sports on the tv's. It's a great spot to hang out with one friend or many, which probably explains why it's so full every time I go. read more

Fun place with a great concept. Realistically, this is micro-golf with no more than 2 putts needed to hole out (although I suppose that depends on how much beer one has.) Speaking of which, this is a place that takes its craft beer quite seriously. There are 24 rotating taps from the Pacific Northwest, each displayed with ABV, IBU, hop profile and current keg level on dual flatscreen monitors. It's also integrated with social media, so check-ins on Untappd and FourSquare are displayed. There are also selections available by bottle and can. The only knock is that they don't really have food. Potato chips and pretzels are the only real options. Be sure to eat up before hand, because if you like beer, this is a place you'll want to hang out at for awhile. read more

I found out about Flatstick Pub while searching locally for a mini golf course. I thought this was such a neat idea and had to check it out. I took my friends who were visiting from Oregon here and we had a great time! The course is small but they are tricky holes! 9 holes for $6 was worth it. I believe hole #6 is the one we all got stuck and eventually had to give up on! Also, I'm gluten free and they had one hard cider I could drink, the other was made with hops so skip that one if you're gf. The cider was spicy and tasted like jalapeno (it was tasty though). It had a kick to it, but in a good way! I don't think I'd drink more than one and it would have been great paired with some fries or something. All the beers were reasonably priced and locally made. I think it would be great if they started offering Omission beers by RedHook (still local) for some more gluten free options. It's hard to find gf beer, and ones that don't taste like crap. All in all, we had a total blast here and will be going back soon! read more

This place is awesome. I love the concept of all the local beers and the technology of showing how full each keg was. Came here with a group of 4 and we each got a different beer. They were all great. The putt putt wasn't as big as I thought it would be. Each hole small, but really difficult. It was a great time. I would recommend giving this place a shot. I guarantee you'll have a great time. read more

Can be hard to find a table. Have not tried to golf yet but always seems like a long line. Dog friendly which is awesome but hard to walk through at times. read more

They had a delicious beer called Ballz Deep. Need I say more? Huge selection of beer, nice collection of board games, friendly staff and mini golf. Really no complaints here! Nice addition to the Kirkland pub scene. read more

Great chill place to hang out and grab some beer or cider! Taps are rotating and you can check online for what's new. They have large TVs where you can watch the game or play a round of indoor mini golf. The big Jenga was also fun:) and when you're done you can go relax by water on a sunny day. -service was very friendly and helpful -prices are great, especially with a Groupon! -parking is pretty easy, lot out front or on the street. Public parking lot just a block away read more

I love this place. You can hangout with friends here, play several games, have some beers. Fun place. read more

Flatstick Pub - Mini Golf Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

See all

You gotta love flatstick for what it is and not fault it for what it isn't. What it is - a great neighborhood spot to hang out, play some games and grab a local microbrew or cider. They also have some great non-alcoholic options if that's your thing. What it isn't - a cocktail bar/restaurant. There are plenty of those in Kirkland to check out! What flatstick does, they do very well. Staff is friendly and the space is cozy. They have a couple tv's with sports on too. I love it here and I am so happy they opened a new location in pioneer square! Great pregame spot. read more

The first time we came in, it was at random. Yelp had told us about the Irish Pub around the corner (also cool) and we stumbled upon this mini-golf taproom. We stopped in near closing time on our way back to the car and spoke with the owner who was very friendly and even let us play free mini-golf since it was basically closing time and it was our first time in. We are here again on a Friday, and it is busy and loud (a good thing.) The service has been prompt, mini-golf is cheap and the beer selection is perfect. They have 24 taps. 22 of local craft beer, 1 cider 1 root beer. Prices are good, and flights of 5 good sized tasters are 12.50 which I consider to be a great price. Digging it. Edit: Fixed a typo and came back to say that this place is still rad several months later. read more

Great staff, great beer selection, great atmosphere!! Trivia night is a bit crowded but fun and everyone working there always suggests great drink choices. If you're around Kirkland and not visiting Flatstick, you're missing out! read more

I love everything about this place... 24 rotating taps of Washington craft brews makes it a beer fanatic's dream. A chill casual environment tons of games and mini-golf makes it a good place to hang out not just a place to drink. Regular events like Monday night putters league, Tuesday brewers night, and a geeks who drink trivia on Wednesday keep things interesting. Owners that are involved and interesting people to talk to are nice too. :) read more

I've only been here once, but I consider myself a huge fan already. When you have 20-odd brews from within the state on tap (including a root beer and a couple of ciders for those who aren't quite lagerheads), it's hard to go wrong. When you throw in digitized displays that show how recently each brew has been tapped, and how much remains in the barrel, I'm more piqued than usual. Add a 9-hole mini golf course on top of that, and I'm sold! I grabbed a pint of the Fremont Summer Ale, and my boyfriend got the pumpkin ale. I absolutely loved that they had a pumpkin ale available in the summer--and it was a fantastic one at that. After sipping on our beers, we played a high competitive game of mini golf--this course is not for the faint of heart, because we were both averaging 7's. Oops. Super fun, though, especially for a $1.50 a round with your beer on Mondays ($6 otherwise). I truly wish that we could've stayed for another pint each, but we were strapped for time. That's why I'm ensuring I'll be back for trivia night sometime soon. Oh yeah. read more
