4.75 stars. Northwest Beerwerks is awesome! First, they have an extensive collection of beers…read morefrom around the PNW in cans. Second, their draft list offers a variety of beers at a good price. Third, they have an awesome outdoor area. Fourth, and this is worth stressing for businesses in Oregon and Washington, they are INDOOR dog friendly! Yes, they don't have an internal kitchen and this decision is precisely why your furry friend doesn't have to die in the cold or get wet in the rain. Only suggestion I really have is it would be great to see a few more options for beer brewed outside the PNW (of course, this is NW Beerwerks so I get it). But seriously, this place is great and you and your hopefully very friendly dog should frequent it.

Such a great place to stop and enjoy beer or beer tasting!…read more They offer flights of 4 from the on tap selection which changes frequently depending on the season. There's so much seating in front, inside at the bar, inside at the nook rooms (it's a house converted to a tap room), as well are more outside seating on the side and in the back! The barstools are lovely and heavy. So sturdy and comfortable for being iron and wood. The service is always friendly and welcoming, offering suggestions and will go out of their way to try and locate a beer if you were looking for something specific (they may just have more in stock in their storage area so don't be afraid to ask if you want a beer that you don't see in the coolers for can/bottle purchase). This is just a great place to relax and enjoy! There's food trucks next door but I'm not sure what their hours are. I was there Sunday in the afternoon and the food trucks were closed. But you can bring in outside food anyway and don't have to rely on just those trucks.

If you know us, you know we live for a good dive! It was a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty scarce. There was a large group when we first got there but they headed out and it was just us a few others. Classic dive on the inside and a nice bartender as well. This place is a true TAVERN. No hard alcohol, just beer, cider, wine, seltzers. Prices were incredibly affordable - four drinks after tip was only $25! The beer garden area is chaotic and I mean this in the best way. Exactly the type of beer garden I wanna see at a dive. There was a ton of space out there too! The ONLY gripe we had was that the smell of the fryer was extremely overwhelming. Normally it doesn't bother me much but it was SO strong here so we opted to sit outside because just being in there to order gave me a borderline headache from the smell. Truly was a great find! We're never in the area so it's unlikely we'll return, but we definitely would if we found ourselves here again.

American family menu with optional kids and senior dishes. You can find sandwiches, burgers, pot roast, steaks, soups, and salads. I ordered the pot roasted with mashed potatoes and rice pilaf.

Never coming here again. Bartender was a super rude woman. Very awkwardly came up to us from behind…read morethe bar and said she had never seen us there before, made us go around the table and introduce ourselves by name. Very offputting start. Before i could even finish my sentence saying i forgot my ID and if its ok to show her a picture she cut me off to sternly say "no its never ok, actually" then went on to try to guess my age. We had to get up and leave. I understand not having an ID but she definitely had an attitude that screams i hate my life. Wont be coming back.

Nice selection of Oregon and Washington microbrews and a couple of ciders on their 12 taps. Amazing variety on the food menu! We had the pulled pork nachos, delicious and beautiful, topped with fresh corn, black beans, green onion and jalapenos in addition to the requisite cheese. The decor was very stylish and comfortable with inside and outside seating. Everyone was welcoming and friendly to regulars and first timers like us alike. What a wonderful little place!

Very glad we stopped by here on a recent trip down towards Longview and Kelso way…read more First of all I didn't know how much there was to Castlerock. I thought it was just businesses to the east of interstate, primarily for the road traffic mostly but the town hops across the interstate and goes west to where downtown is. And there is where Crosscut is. At first I had the interpretation that this place was a cidery but it's more of a tap house that serves guest taps for beer and cider. They also serve food as well. We got a couple smaller sized beers from their tap list. Breweries that were out of Vancouver,WA and Portland, OR. Those were very good! The nachos we ordered were good too. I think you can pick from two different options and we went with one where it had a pulled pork. It was more like BBQ nachos. Definitely something out of the ordinary but very appetizing and enjoyable! Nice location in downtown. We were here in the evening and most of the shops were already closed but would love to come back in the day for a drink and some eats while window shopping downtown.

While visiting family in Olympia, we wanted to check out the local beer. We have kids, so we ran a…read moresearch on Yelp for family friendly breweries, which didn't turn up many. Luckily, Top Rung was at the top of the list. Top Rung is located in an industrial area in a quiet part of town. Food Top Rung had quite a few beers on tap and offered some pizza options that they made behind the bar. I went with the HDR Hazy Sabro-Tooth Tiger IPA. The beer was served in my favorite type of drinking glasses, which are shaped like beer cans. The beer itself was very cold and tasty. 5/5 Service The bar wasn't too busy, but the staff were still friendly and knowledgeable. I only ordered one drink due to time, but still inquired about buying a glass, which they were sadly out of. 4/5 Ambiance The bar has a fire department theme and is decorated as such. They have ample inside and outside seating and even some board games. Very good vibes. 5/5 Top Rung seems like a brewery on the rise. They have all the ingredients to be very successful. If you are in the area, check them out.

The drinks were creative and there were even fun mocktails for the kids.

My boyfriend and I have been here once but only to check it out as we were coming up from Oregon…read more We have visited the Olympia location and have done trivia, ordered food and drinks and hung out at the location. We wanted to participate in the video game trivia that was hosted at the Centralia one and we decided to stop by 30ish minutes before they started at 7 which they did start on the dot. When you arrive, you go through the restaurant first and you are able to seat yourselves then wait until a server notices to drop off menus and take your order. The menu can be a bit confusing as they have some drink items on the regular menu and a secret menu and limited menu with food or dessert on the drink menu. It took a little bit to get noticed but we got a Hogwash potion and a Yoshi's Island for drinks as we had just had dinner elsewhere as the food prices here a bit much and not worth price but their video game or other nerdy themed drinks which some can be mocktails are fantastic. My boyfriend's Hogwash potion didn't take long and it was cool to see it opened with vapors coming out. My drink took much more time but it felt like it was more ice than anything as I felt like I had maybe four sips before it was all good. The trivia was great but they were having mic issues but it was also just hard to hear the host as we were sitting on the opposite end of where the host was. There are TVs that have the questions so that was very helpful. The service here is friendly but it would have been nice to be checked on more as I wanted to order another drink but their loss, I suppose. My boyfriend and I ended up getting first place but I'm also a little sad cause I didn't see a way to get points for our order today as I know they have a Toast reward system.
