This place is the spot during game days!! Zack always takes good care of our group!! We will for sure be back!!

Great place to go before any sports game since it's so close to the stadiums, Zack the bartender is amazing! Good cocktails and a nice vibe, lots of TVs to watch whatever game you're looking for. read more

Zack and Edgar are absolutely amazing! Hatback bar and Grill is a vibe and they make the best cocktails

Went for lunch mid week. Wasn't very busy and we had good attentive service. Cocktails were well done and balanced. Had a cozy feel in a high backed booth towards the back. Lots of large TVs but not too loud. Had fish and chips and companion had Chicken sandwich. Both decent portions. The batter on the fish was good and light. The fish itself was very mushy so guessing it was overcooked at some point. read more

In town on business one of the rare occasions I could bring my wife. We met one of her coworkers here. My first thing was we wanted to park For 2 hours. The lot at the restaurant said $5 an hour, ok but then the minimum is 12 hours, ouch $60 right off the bat. Then out of any dark beer, really no beer delivered on Monday? Plus they brew their own. The server was not too helpful and seemed shocked my wife wanted a sample. Service was slow our server was more interested in talking to one of the other servers. We got a pizza someone else brought it. We didn't have plates our server was mia there was a lady bussing tables we got Some from her. The food was good. I would never go back there if I had to park in their lot again. THANKS TO THE OWNER FOR REACHING OUT. It was one and done for us. We had two days in town before a conference in Redmond. We weren't looking for anything out of the review. Perhaps training servers that diners pay their check. I usually let some server inadequacy slide, but from start to finish we were in my opinion an inconvenience, that kept her from talking to a male server. read more

Attended a private event here in their upper level room! There was plenty of space, our own personal bar service, and the food was phenomenal!! Our party had a fantastic time and I would definitely come back! read more

Great spot to go to before a Mariners game. Service was slow initially but got a little better once we ordered. Didn't eat anything but drink selection was good. Cool spot and ambiance overall. read more

We came here before an event and were really glad we did. The service was fast, especially considering they ended up getting slammed and we had no idea it was going to be that busy. All of our food was good, and our server was super friendly. The only downside was that the nachos were pretty small and not really shareable. Overall, we'd definitely go back! read more

If you're looking for the best bartender in SoDo, look no further! Even during the busiest rush, Zack provided exceptional service with a genuine smile and positive attitude. Zack stayed attentive, friendly, all while making sure every guest felt taken care of. It's rare to find someone who can handle a packed bar with such professionalism and warmth. His energy and customer service truly stood out and made the experience even better. Thank you for going above and beyond--I'll definitely be back! read more

Zack provided an absolute flawless experience at Hatback today. From the moment we walked in, he made us feel incredibly welcome and comfortable. Five stars without a doubt!" read more

Great game day vibes! Zach at the bar always makes sure I'm taken care of no matter how hectic it can be.

Had an event here and never quite realize how big the place is. Inside absolutely beautiful. And expansive. Gorgeous bar and really kind people. Had dish and chicken and both were really good. Sides were veg, potatoes and they were equally tasty. Cheesecake for dessert and it was super tasty. Highly recommend this place! read more

In town for Padres v Mariners and found this place across from T-Mobile ballpark. Fast service (non game day). Great atmosphere, food and quick service. If going to a game I would definitely recommend. read more

I was going back and forth between giving this three or four stars... Maybe three and a half would suit better. The food was so so, but what a great spot for Mariners fans or just baseball fans in general. Really enjoyed hanging out here and talking ball with all the locals when I was visiting. Great service though from the staff, even though it was super swamped during ichiro's retirement ceremony weekend. Definitely would come back here and try it again. read more

Spent the day in the city and tried out this bar and grille. It's across from the stadium but it wasn't a game day, so it wasn't very busy. Our bar serves were amazing and friendly. We enjoyed watching the US Soccer team win. We order two Rainer beers bc it was a hot day and I ordered the three carnitas tacos. Wasn't very loud bc it wasn't very busy due to it not being a game day. read more

Hatback Bar & Grille - Drinks! - American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Best bar in the stadium district! Fantastic menu (get the Diavolo Pizza and thank me later!). Best part about it...the drinks! Zack is wizard behind the bar and he'll get you right before the game and keep you going after the game!! read more

Ambiance is good with a game day vibe. We sat at the bar. Received below average service. Both our meals were challenged. I had a crispy chicken sanwich. It was way over cooked and small portion. Worst one I've ever ordered anywhere. Super disappointing but I did not send it back. My partner ordered a salad with veggies, quinoa and added grilled chicken. The chicken was way over cooked and dry. A couple sprinkled carrots and mostly quinoa. Should have sent it back but didn't have much time before the game. If you go stick to the burgers or pizza. we likely will not return read more

Best pregame spot ever! Super friendly staff, kid accomodating, great menu, super tasty and fantastic bar. There are TV screens everywhere and wide open spaces to give it a super comfy vibe. Not to mention it is right across the street from the stadium!! There was no wait, but granted we got there hours before the game... read more

Zack H was THE BEST. Great service and very helpful! Let us try a couple of samples before deciding on our beverages.

NICELY APPOINTED SPORTS BAR ACROSS THE STREET FROM T-MOBILE STADIUM. Always a fun place to stop in for drinks, apps, or even a full pub style meal. Great hamburgers, fries, and a wide selection of craft beers. Excellent service. In a fun atmosphere. I highly recommend. Cheers. read more

Came here for some pregame drinks and despite the expectations - crowds, slightly higher prices that come with it, it was pretty good. On any day where a game or event is happening at the stadiums there is bound to be a crowd here, double that if it's warm out and the nearby Victory Hall yard/biergarten is open. Because of that I like how if you have a preference of seating (which includes indoor/outdoor, tables, counters) they will take your number and text you when it's ready. So that's what we did, wanting to be outside. In the meantime we sat at the counter, and this was good, bartenders were pretty attentive and had 3, to keep up with the demand of customers. About 20 minutes we were able to move outside. Beers are definitely cheaper here, so it's a given to have couple before game time. My buddy wanted an "Ultimate pretzel" and got one to share. Think of an Auntie Anne's/Wetzel's pretzel but it comes withmétier beer mustard and Beecher's cheese dip which is cool. Again, if you're coming to a game or event here, I'd recommend and I'd come back myself. read more

If you're in the Sodo area stop by. If you're not in the Sodo area, stop by, there's plenty of parking in back. Great place to watch games. Numerous large tv screens all over. I can only speak for the pizza since that's all I've had. It's too good for me to want to try something else. In particular I had the Diavolo pizza. Topped with Crushed Uli's hot sausage, soppressatta, mama Lil's peppers, mozzarella, and basil. Try it! The flavor will have you coming back for more! It has a nice little spicy kick to it as well. The crust on their pizza is so light and crispy. There won't be anything left trust me! read more

For a very busy Next door stadium bar, this place is chill and next level food!! Great on all levels, come early for an Ms game, park, eat and skip stadium pricing. You cannot beat the burgers and fries! 10/10 read more

Stopped in on 6/26/25 and the place was PACKED. We didn't even have seats at first, but Jeremy helped us immediately on the patio, with a smile. Our food came out quick, hot, and perfect! The salad was fresh, and the burger was AMAZING! Thank you HatBack crew, and especially Jeremy, the server extraordinaire. Seriously, he juggled 100 of us on the patio. Props! read more

Whelp I got a beer and some food and A nice big view of the TV showing the game! Im happy we won and the service was outstanding! read more

Absolutely love Hatback Bar & Grille! I also love that they are partnered with Metier Brewing, as it's one of my favorite local breweries. They have several of their beers on tap and some of the menu items also use the beer in their recipes which is super cool. The actual restaurant has a fun laid back vibe that makes this the perfect spot to pregame nearby events or games. You can also order from Steelheads Alley and sit in that space instead which is also a fun atmosphere. I went with the Hatback Burger which is basically their rendition of a classic cheeseburger. It comes with painted hills beef double patty, Beecher's Cheese, tomato-bacon jam, pickles bibb lettuce, on a kaiser roll. The burger was cooked perfectly and I liked the tomato bacon jam a lot more than I thought I would. The sea salt fries are also really tasty. Definitely one of my favorite spots to stop in before a Mariners game and I'm sure I'll be back once the season kicks off again! read more

Fun place for a birthday get together or any occasion to celebrate/have drinks with friends! Hatback is a large space with plenty of seating at the bar, booths and large communal tables. Our birthday group of 10 was able to comfortably move around and share tons of appetizer plates amongst each other. Some of the highlight dishes: - Mac n cheese (Beecher's) - hot wings - Caesar salad with added chicken - hummus plate - nachos The bartender made me a delicious Old Fashion. Friends of mine enjoyed other libations, beers. I would recommend this place if you're looking for a gathering space next to the stadiums before the game. read more

We stopped in for a quick nosh before a concert. We grabbed several appetizers and threw them on the table to share. Service was terrific, food was fast and hot. Nothing extraordinary but well cooked. The restaurant is clean and modern. read more

This is a nice sports bar to watch the local teams. They have a great selection of local beers on tap. I had their Impossible burger, which was very good. Service was friendly and attentive. Vibe is casual and lively. The only problem is the availability and cost of parking during Mariners or Seahawks games, since it is right across the street from both stadiums. read more

This was a great visit. We were seated right away and greeted with drinks quite quickly. My wife and I ordered onion rings and pretzels and dip for our apps and we each got a burger for our entree. The apps came quite quickly and a reasonable time passed before the burgers. By far the best dining food and nicest staff we've had in quite some time. read more

This is a welcoming place to join friends and family before games. I recommend arriving a few hours before your event. They have televisions everywhere so everyone can see their favorite sport. Drinks are from local breweries and wineries from around the region. There is a wide variety of seating options to choose from. The interior design is perfect for the Sodo Mojo experience. read more

Service was excellent, as was the food. One recommendation for management: The addition of a couple 'special' breakfast items for early Sunday Mariner game days. read more

I came here for lunch after a work meeting. I would say it was an ok experience overall. The burger was ok. It probably wont make the best burgers in Seattle list but they are probably not going for that. The ambience is good with big TVs and lots of seating. The service was good. I just thought the food and drinks were on the expensive side for what you get. read more

I have mixed thoughts, and I also don't drink alcohol. So if you want to skip my review, I totally understand. First up, service. Every employee I interacted with was SUPER friendly and helpful. But that wasn't the best part, the atmosphere was. It was super busy, but so spacious that it felt very inviting, uh, chill. But I have to say, seating is far and few between. It's tables mostly, which is nice. Alcohol prices were steep according to my buddy. His overall thoughts were, this only brings value being next door to Mariners stadium. We didn't try any of their food. Overall, this is a big spot that feels even bigger once you're inside. But that's about all they have, beyond great employees. My buddy and I had a good time, but there were people we were meeting up with (that we know well enough, but are acquaintances) and they weren't super enticed to stay for very long. Don't take this as a negative review, I have a positive opinion and memory of the place. I apologize if I've upset anyone. Thanks for reading. read more

This is a large open loft style beer hall with a Mariners shop across from T-MOBILE park. We stopped here prior to attending a concert. Outside is an outdoor beer garden with two food trucks. There is lively music with pub games. I put our name on the list and was quoted for a 1.5-hour wait. In the meantime, we went to the beer garden to get drinks. There was mobile ordering for their food truck. We waited almost one hour to receive our tacos from the truck after we were seated at our table and got our drinks. The tacos were tiny but delicious. The server was friendly but clearly overwhelmed by the number of guests. The banana daiquiri was delicious and the atmosphere lively. If you come plenty early and don't have expectations to eat right away, this is a fun place to hang out with friends. read more

I had the barvarian steak for dinner. It was really good for a sports bar. The atmosphere is really god even though it wasn't very crowded that day read more

Posted a review on here a while back and somebody said they would get back to me and make it right. I have yet to hear from anybody which tells Me You guys Don't give a s*** about service and you allow your employees to treat people like s*** and because of their political Views to Go back in or you can see my post. And I was told somebody would reach out to me to make it right? Nobody has reached out to me to make it right. So apparently you guys just look in the other way and sleep. It is under the rug. Tell the lot about how you guys treat customers. We'll be challenged everybody.I know not to go here read more

Ordered a gin and tonic and a titi and tonic. Both drinks taste like soda water. I won't recommend their drinks.

3 stars because, super pricey and so so food. It's hard to mess up a double patty smash style burger smothered in their special sauce, aka, 1000 island sauce. Almost to the point of gross. But it wasn't gross. It was tasty. The order was a bit messed up as I asked for a cheeseburger. No bacon. Ended up also with no lettuce, no tomato either. My favorite part of a burger. I know, I know...what's the point? Lettuce and tomato on a burger. I love a good, crispy iceberg and tomato slices, well, duh! I think the very nice waitress got confused. Because my dining partner asked for a burger, no cheese and no sauce, only mayonnaise and she got lettuce. Sort of confused. But I ate it nonetheless. A juicy two patty super messy burger. I chose to eat with one hand only due to the amount of sauce drowning the burger. The fries were semi warm and not salted as advertised on the menu as sea salt fries. Not sure if they didn't feel like frying up a fresh batch. For the price point of food, boo. Freshly fried French fries please! Didn't even finish the fries. The margarita was delicious though, and a $14 price point not too bad for downtown Seattle. Ambiance? Seahawks fans had the place full of loud football fans. Don't judge me, I'm not a huge sports fan. Televisions blasted all over with multiple screens and it was difficult to have a conversation. Now, no hard feelings as this is a sports bar. And a football game had just ended at the nearby Lumen field. So, I'm not hating on that. Just know if there's a sport event going on, you will not be able to have a quiet conversation with a dining partner. But the overall vibe was fun. There's an outdoor area too. Of If I come back I'm having a pizza. The wood fire pizza looked amazing and I saw dudes throwing dough and making fresh pizza. The table next to me was served a pepperoni pizza that looked so good! Overall, I won't rush back here, but, if you're in downtown Seattle attending an event, or concert, it isn't a horrible place. Parking is what you'd expect, local parking lots gouging patrons. Or street parking. I vote public transportation! SYOY! read more
