Beef Steak Tapa Bowl
Hayley M.

Let me start off by saying the vibes at Knee High Stocking are immaculate. It's moody, stylish, and on a night when it's pouring rain outside, feels absolutely like the place to be on a Friday night. The staff is similarly wonderful. Super friendly, helpful and offered great service. The thing that didn't do it for me was the food. Now, maybe I'm shooting myself in the foot here going to a Filipino speakeasy as a Filipino person myself, who's always held to the adage "the best Filipino food is from a friend's kitchen", but the mains didn't hit the spot. The tater tots that supposedly had adobo seasoning tasted like regular tater tots, and my two friends who got pork adobo were disappointed that it was dry. I will say that the lumpia was decent, and so were the calamansi zero-proof cocktails we ordered! The steak tapa I got I enjoyed, even if the garlic rice felt a little too soft. What raised our spirits at the end of a mid-tier meal was the ube bread pudding. I would go back for that dessert alone. Let me tell you, it was AMAZING, and because of that we went away feeling much better than we would've otherwise. Overall, an alright experience. I myself wouldn't go back for a meal, and if someone's looking to eat Filipino food for the first time, I'd recommend elsewhere. But for that ube bread pudding? Yeah, when that craving hits, you might find me back here again.

this is a really fun, intimate bar. kind of feels like you're stepping into someone's house, into their cozy, dim living room. it is quite exclusive though, seems like they only do reservations, which we nabbed day of, so it's not too hard to get. we did see people try to do walk-in and getting turned away. definitely a spot of smaller groups, as there were a lot of small tables, bar seats, and one larger table that could maybe fit 6 comfortably. drinks were delicious, although more on the pricey side. i especially liked my drink, the pecadillo, which was fruity and sweet, easy to drink! do NOT sleep on the ube bread pudding. wow!!! its the perfect night cap, such a delicious dessert to go with drinks. the bread pudding was crispy on the outside, mushy and moist (in the best way) on the inside, and comes with vanilla ice cream. a must get menu item if you come here... so good we had to order a second!

I wanted to hate this place. Knee high stockings are sexual fun things. But delaying gratification for a seat doesn't get my rocks off; we waited +30 min for our first round, with a reservation, on a cold January Saturday, with less than 40% occupancy. Unfortunately, for my disgruntled-ass, the drinks were very balanced and had flavor themes down. We got a fried rice dish, very nice for a late-night snack. So, well done.. your barkeep and chef are fine gentleman. Hats off good Sirs. But the vibes were off; this is the type of place a 40-something tech-bro takes a 20-something from Fremont to impress her before buying fentanyl laced coke from his 'reliable' corner store. I literally cannot make up the utter amount of total douche holes that are patrons. At least until King Douche left, after which the table next to us and the hostess all laughed at how horrible he was: we all proclaimed if we hear 'my ex-wife' one for time. All in all, not a bad time. Just a little slow for service and douche canoeing.

Loved this place! A little confusing to find given the exterior doesn't really show it's a bar. They had a small little sign and you press the door bell waiting to get let in. We randomly wanted to come here on a Saturday night not knowing you need reservations. Luckily for us, a couple were just leaving and they had seats for us at the bar. Our bar tender was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a blast talking to her and getting recommendations on drinks. I would come back to this bar anytime I visit Seattle. Highly recommend to come early or make reservations.

IF YOU CAN ONLY GET ONE THING HERE, YOU MUST ORDER THE UBE BREAD PUDDING!!! This dessert is tastes like HAPPINESS! The texture is THE perfect chewy brownie, served warm, and it's sweet while not being too sweet. I regret not getting two because I'm not local to the Seattle area and I am STILL thinking about this bread pudding. It even tastes good COLD if you bring your leftovers home, just incredible. My friend and I only ordered drinks and desserts since we had just came from dinner at another restaurant, so I can't speak for the food here. The service is super friendly, our server was also the mixologist and she was very accommodating to make the drinks to our liking. I can't remember the names of the drinks we got, but the blueberry infused vodka base drink was definitely the favorite. The whiskey sour was not bad, but quite strong. We stopped this speakeasy around 10pm on a Thursday night without a reservation and upon ringing the doorbell a few times my friend and I were seated immediately. I will definitely be returning when visiting Seattle again!

The lower/cellar is always so beautiful to behold and have a cocktail in.

One of my favorite speakeasies by far. Besides the drinks and ambiance, the food offered always presents great bites to eat or snack on.

I"ve always been a sucker for exceptional cocktails served in a speakeasy atmosphere, so when I heard about Knee High Stocking I was really excited to try it; it did NOT disappoint! The door is unmarked and hard to spot. When you find it, you need to use a doorbell to be let in by the doorkeeper. I really liked the vibe once we were inside, and the three of us were seated right away (we had a reservation) and enjoyed watching the bartenders do their magic. Extremely patient, knowledgeable and friendly, our bartender recommended a specialty cocktail for each of us. Through the course of our time at Knee High, we each had two cocktails, and both of mine were excellent! Tip: The place is open until midnight on Friday and Saturday nights. If you come on either of these nights, reservations are strongly advised. Despite the fact that we were there on a Friday night and stayed almost until closing time, we didn't feel any pressure to leave, even when we were virtually the last customers left in the bar :-) While I really enjoyed sitting at the bar, when we come back I'm going to try and snag a table downstairs, as that area looks very cozy and semi-private. Regardless of where you end up sitting, Knee High stocking is an awesome destination to head for if you want to some speciality cocktails and a speakeasy vibe. Highly recommended!

Lady in the Streets, an anise forward cocktail!
Alden C.

Such a great restaurant and cocktail bar! It is totally into the speakeasy thing where you ring a doorbell to get in. Reservations are really recommended here as the place isn't really all that big. The cuisine is Filipino inspired and it is so very, very delicious! Steve and I shared an order of lumpia which we always love but we especially loved Knee High's version! For my actual meal I got the Chicken Adobo bowl. It was so very delicious, flavorful, fresh and a sheer delight to eat! For dessert we got the Ube Bread Pudding which was excellent and finished out an extremely satisfying meal. But we wouldn't be getting the full speakeasy experience if we didn't get some cocktails so we didn't leave that stone unturned at all. I got The Lady in the Streets which was appropriately described as an anise forward cocktail which it certainly was. I personally love anise so I didn't hesitate at all to make that my first cocktail choice and it was wonderfully surreal to my taste buds! Pear of Gibraltar was my second cocktail. It too was a wonderful thrill but I liked the anise one best. I was tempted to get it a second time actually but the cocktail menu was so intriguing I had to try something else. Truly a wonderful, wonderful dining and drinking experience. In the end the bill was far from cheap but everything was a sheer delight and well worth it!

It's been a minute since I enjoyed an evening at Knee High. Great company, fantastic food, and drinks. Sadly I was so wrapped up in conversation I forgot to take pics. It means I will need to go back. Three hours, many appetizers, a couple of mains, many inventive drinks... and very good service. We were seated in one of the downstairs rooms, which we had to ourselves for most of the time. I had several drinks, including one made with a cherry-rose shrub. Craft cocktails with the right strength and taste for all the drinks. One of my friends had the Purple Haze with smoking lavender. We had many rounds of select cocktails where we told our server what we wanted as a base, and she returned with some great creations. The food is a fusion of Filipino cuisine with some modern takes. I've spent much time in the Philippines, and everything is the mark. As a vegetarian, I enjoyed the eggplant adobo and veg lumpia. Take your time, make your reservations well in advance and bring friends to enjoy a memorable evening.

A cute speakeasy chill bar perfect for hanging out with friends! I've been here a couple times for craft cocktails. The inside is decorated nicely and is a stark contrast from the unassuming outside. It took a while for our drinks to come but that was okay since we weren't really in any rush. The drinks all had very interesting flavors and were super enjoyable. I think it was on the pricier side ($20+per drink), but if you go during happy hour it's $4 off select drinks. We also got some food which I was not impressed with. It was a pricey and the portions were small. A lot of the foods we're very acidic. I enjoyed the lumpia and chicken wings. If you come here I would stick to the appetizers and definitely get the UBE BREAD PUDDING!

Last year, I met my Brazilian teammate in-person for the first time. To my surprise, he was very interested in speakeasies and wanted to go to a few together while he was in SF. That planted a seed in my mind about visiting speakeasies when I travel, so here I was in Seattle for 3 nights looking for speakeasies! I did not have a reservation (you should reserve via text okay!!) and it was okay because I went alone and sat at the bar downstairs. The vibes were immaculate. Very old-timey and dark and I loved the wallpaper patterns, art, plants, and chandeliers. Gives off a mysterious, cozy vibe. I enjoyed my flan which the bartender recommended and a Weekend in Miami cocktail. Service was friendly and fun. I'd recommend coming here for a cute date night or girls' night out.

Exterior
Charlie T.

It is a cool speakeasy type bar that has some well crafted cocktails and Filipino style snacks. We were seated in the basement level, which had an intimate vibe to it. The bartender was pretty good and gave a good recommendation on drinks. The snacks were a perfect sharing size, and the desserts were tasty.

Purple haze
Zina P.

The waiter / bartender is SO RUDE. He told us to "hush" multiple times even though there was two groups who were significantly louder than us. We asked for a napkin because we spilled a drink and he said "you'll get your napkins when you get your food with the utensils" we literally just wanted a napkin to clean a spill. Not a good experience at all. I've heard some of my friends say they have had a really good experience here. We didn't try the food unfortunately because the table next to us advised us against it. They had ordered their food and waited about 45 minutes just for their appetizer to come out. We heard them ask the waiter if they could order their entrees and he said one minute and didn't come back for about 20 minutes. Otherwise it's a nice intimate little speakeasy. You ring a doorbell to get inside. Pretty spacious on the inside and very dim. The purple haze drink was very good.

Capitol Hill

As a self-appointed connoisseur of speakeasies (a title I awarded myself after extensive…read more"research") Needle and Thread sits comfortably at the top of my list. While reservations aren't technically required, let me save you some heartbreak, make one. They only open reservations six days in advance, and this place fills up faster than brunch spots when the sun comes out in Seattle. Totally worth the planning. The experience starts downstairs at Tavern Law restaurant, where you let the host know you're headed to Needle and Thread. From there, you're directed to a mysterious locked door next to a telephone. Yes, an actual phone. Pick it up, give your reservation name once someone answers, and bam! You're buzzed upstairs like you've just passed a very classy secret test. Once inside, you're greeted and escorted to your seat, and the magic really begins. There's no drink menu because why limit creativity? Instead, the staff plays cocktail therapist, asking about your favorite spirits, flavors, and moods. Based on your answers, they craft a completely custom drink tailored to your palate. Every cocktail we tried was spot-on. Balanced, intentional, and clearly made by people who treat mixology like an art form rather than a guessing game. Bonus points: You can request the coaster they took your order on, which lists the ingredients so you can attempt to recreate it at home (results may vary depending on your confidence and liquor cabinet.) Not to be overshadowed by the drinks, the Sockeye Salmon Crostini was a fantastic fresh, flavorful appetizer and the perfect companion to a night of bespoke cocktails. They have other heartier food as well, but we had dinner reservations elsewhere for the evening. Between the immersive entrance, outstanding service, thoughtful drinks, and authentic speakeasy atmosphere, this isn't just a bar, it's an experience. If you're in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, Needle and Thread is a must try.

Instagram : @yeapeats…read more I was excited to try Needle & Thread since it's often described as a speakeasy, but the "hidden" aspect didn't quite live up to expectations. Unlike other speakeasies that feel truly hidden, you actually just walk into Tavern Law, check in with the hostess, and let them know you have a reservation. They then guide you to a telephone where you repeat your reservation name before being let upstairs. It's a fun concept, but not especially secretive, and they're pretty strict about not letting you up early unless it's very empty. Once seated, we actually waited almost 20 minutes before being served with no acknowledgement. We ended up having to flag down the manager just to bring attention to our table, which was disappointing given the experience they're aiming for. The waitress asks a series of questions about your preferences--likes, dislikes, and flavor inspirations--so the bartenders can create custom cocktails for you. If you're knowledgeable about alcohol, this is probably a dream. If you're not (like me), it can feel a little intimidating, but our waitress was patient and did her best to guide us through it. The drinks themselves were excellent. Even the shots were customized, which was a nice touch. The vibe upstairs is chill and relatively quiet, making it a great place to relax and talk. Food is the same menu as downstairs at Tavern Law, so nothing new there. The only downside--and unfortunately a noticeable one--was an interaction with the female bartender (not our waitress). Based on the questions we were asked, my friend gave a mix of savory and sweet preferences, since we were told these were just inspirations. However, the female bartender came over sounding visibly annoyed and said, "So do you want savory or sweet? You're giving contradicting answers." The tone felt unnecessarily rude, especially since we were just following the process as it was explained to us. Overall, the drinks were great and the concept is unique, but between the delayed service and that negative interaction, it definitely put a damper on the experience.

Another 10-15 mins go by and I had to ask "do you know how long our order will take to which she seemed to get annoyed. It could have my energy because by that time I was annoyed. I'm not sure what happened to our original server but he must have gotten off. About 5-10 mins goes by and here it comes. That confirmed the table next to us got our order because of how long it took. They never apologized for their mistake. Doing all that time they never came back to see if we would like another drink. I had to flag someone down. The clincher was we got our bill and there was 22% service charge. That was on me because if I would have seen it I might not have gone. I'm not a fan of automatically charging a service charge. I'm a great tipper but it must be earned. By than I was really annoyed and thought to have a conversation with the manager but let it go. I would not go back. The craft cocktails are spendy but I had no problem with that because they're creative and they earned it by being creative. But the energy and the environment wasn't like the other speak easy bars I visited. It was boring and to top it off the service charge of 22% and the service that came with it sealed it for me. Make sure to read the website on their thought around the 22%.

Roquette was a surprisingly small space with a wonderful vibe serving up "destination" bar-worthy cocktails. It reminded me of some of the neighborhood gem cocktail bars that I'd frequented on the East Coast. I grabbed a seat at the bar. Roquette's lineup of cocktails were varied in flavor profile using a wide range of spirits. They also served non-alcoholic offerings which looked equally intriguing as their boozy selections. I started off with the 99 Problems ($28), which, unfortunately, I forgot to note what was in the drink. It was boozy, clever, inventive, and most importantly delicious. My second drink was the Imperium Old Fashioned ($24) made with Westland Whiskey "Roquette" Barrel, Clement Cask Strength Rhum, Old Delicious Apple Brandy, Pineapple, and Spice. It was an excellent, boozy, balanced update to the classic Old Fashioned. Although I went with drinks off their menu, I have no doubt that any of their skilled bar professionals could've crafted me a wonderful cocktail if I had simply requested a classic or something on the fly based on my choice of spirit and desired flavor profile. Yes, the prices on the two drinks I ordered were pretty steep, but they were comparable to prices I've paid in Las Vegas. Plus, I don't have a problem with paying a premium for a well-made cocktail made with premium ingredients in a comfortable, welcoming setting (the drunken guy next to me who tried to engage with me in a political discussion excluded). Bottom-line: Roquette was a revelation. It served up two of the best cocktails that I've had this year. I can't recommend it enough and it'll be at the top of my list of places to hit the next time I'm in town.

This one you could taste the rum more and overall it was a really enjoyable drink and experience - "See A Light" which is a non-alcoholic option and the taste was just as good as the presentation. Came in a lovely angler fish tiki mug with the light and everything! The taste was complex and something that thought went into creating - "Four Boys" another non-alcoholic option that was the coolest visual as it came in a "steaming" crock pot.

There was a lot of thought that went into the presentation of each of the drinks and I love that attention to detail. Since it was around dinner time I did want to order food and drink. They did not have the Kikisoba (they ran out) and that made me sad, but I was able to order the Rumba sliders and a basket of fries. I'm not a huge sliders fan, and I did order the caramelized pineapple on the side. The sliders were incredibly flavorful and the perfect size. For anyone wanting to visit Seattle, I do highly recommend this place. It's a really cool vibe and the food is really good too.

Phocific Standard Time is a small speakeasy located on top of Pho Bac in Downtown Seattle. It's a…read moresmall bar area with seating for about 15 people I would say. I would definitely go early if you want to make sure you have a good spot. A lot of their drinks are more asian inspired with infusions of different flavors you wouldn't find in other bars. I would definitely come back but parking is a pain since it's in DT Seattle. Sanitation: very clean (5/5) Staff: (4/5) Chyrsanthemum Martini (4/5) This was really good and smooth. It is definitely more liquor forward but it has more of a floral aftertaste. I would get this if you want something faster to drink as it's only 3oz. Cooling Water (4/5) The Cooling water was a nice drink as well. I would definitely say the flavors were a little light on this drink but the frozen lychee that was a cute garnish. Xa Lad (5/5) I thought the salad was really good with the dressing, the croutons were a little too crunchy on some of the parts. I would definitely order this again cause it was a good portion size. Nachos (5/5) The crab nachos were really good, the cheese sauce had some fish sauce infused into which gave it more of an asian flare. The way that real crab meat was incorporated was good as well. There was an assortment of veggies that tasted slightly pickled that made it a little refreshing. I think if they decided to do wonton chips, it would put it over the top but still very tasty overall.

This is a Speakeasy bar located on the upstairs of a regular pho and banh mi restaurant. Upon…read morewalking up, the staff asked us to use the tablet for queue despite no on waiting ahead. The space is small, with a main center bar area and few small tables around so I understand that it could just be crowd control. The menu had a lot of fun drinks and snacks, including pho in a cup, presented like an instant cup noodles ramen. We ended up getting a few things to try. Overall, enjoyed the creativeness of the drinks and vibe. Prices are a bit high, but we had a good time!
