Went to Ladd and Lass for the first time last weekend and it was fantastic! I had two beers, a Helles and a Czech Pilsner. They were both crispy, delicious, and totally hit the spot for a warm Seattle day! The staff was super friendly. More than happy to answer questions so we could pick beers we'd enjoy. The space is open and clean. Tons of seating options, a projector, games, and lots of amazing snacks. I was SO happy to see they had Gochiso snack mixes!! These are my favorite and so hard to find. It's awesome that they are carrying a local snack brand. Can't wait to come back and bring my dog next time! read more

In short Gorgeous lineup of beers made as well as you can make beers. Outside food is welcome, the ballgame's on the tube, and you can play shuffleboard and other stuff to wile away the hours. Regular trivia nights and other events. Wines, ciders, seltzers, and candy also available. In long When he first started selling beers, he made a lot of saisons. For some of us, those dry, funky Belgians are where your palate finds home after trying every beer style. Only some of us, though. They can be hard to sell after a while, especially these days. So now the lineup here runs to lots of gorgeous, refreshing lagers, some explosively-flavorful hoppy stuff, and the occasional big chewy high-abv ale. For a saison whore like me, this is kinda like learning Michelangelo doesn't paint anymore, he just gets down with sculpture now. Not a tragedy by any means, but we still feel the absence. But why are saisons not the huge seller that IPAs are? Well, in part, 'cause old heads like me cut out beer. I did, anyway. I came out of retirement yesterday afternoon to try Nick's beers 'cause they had a Washington Cheese release event at the brewery yesterday. (Can't wait to try those, by the way). I checked out a landbier, german pils, west coast pils, and a hazy IPA. All wonderful, refreshing, and without flaw. We had a couple other beers at the table, along with a seltzer and wine. There's nothing here I wouldn't have again. The space is a good size--seating here, bar back there, brewhouse off to one side, more seating up the ramp in back. They had the Olympics on the flat screens and projector. There are board games and cards near the bar, and shuffleboard upstairs. This was another brewery before, and that brewery put in the shuffleboard table and at least some of the brew equipment. You can still see the name of the old brewery here and there. L&L is an even better source of beer IMO. Somewhat infamously, this space was also a funky dive bar and a, uh, gentleman's club in decades gone by. No trace of either of them remain. The folks who run this place are friendly and fun, and there aren't too many places making beer this good. They even have a great knack for designing cool labels (all done in house!). Highly recommended. read more

I find myself stopping off here semi-regularly. I guess it's been this brewery for nearly 4 years already, but I did make it to the previous brewery a few times too. I appreciate that they open at noon on the weekends. It's close to the freeway, but street parking in this area can be challenging, but this is walking distance from the light rail station. It's usually not too crowded and I have never had trouble finding a place to sit. They seem to always have new things on tap and its kind of fun to be so close to the brewing tanks. There are games available to play (shuffleboard too) and a big projection screen if you are hoping to watch a sport. The sun shines in thru the window at the right time of day and makes it seem like a really cheery place. One thing that is unique that stands out is the bubbly water available self serve, if this is not your thing they will get you regular tap water behind the bar. I enjoy the variety of beers from IPA, to sour, to Barrel Aged Barley Wine. Of course there is regular wine, cider and non alcoholic options too. I appreciate that when I visit it never seems too loud and I am still able to enjoy a conversation. Best of all there are multiple bathrooms. read more

I have had L&L 'bookmarked' for quite a while. The reason it's taken so long to get there is the location and lack of parking. We decided to get a LYFT ride so we didn't have to worry about the parking situation. We noticed a parking lot across the street. Not sure how much they charge but at least parking doesn't have to be an excuse not to go! Since it was our first time, we got a sample tray. We were very impressed! All the beer we sampled was very good! We then jumped into pints. My pint of choice was Shifting Latitudes. It was a delightful, low ABV hazy pale ale with a great taste! The Midnight Carnival was my second fave. It was a roasty but light tasting Czech Dark Lager. We spent at least 4 hours here the first time. Drinking lots of great beers and playing cards. We enjoyed it so much we Lyfted back a few weeks ago. I had the last pint of Shifting Latitudes before the keg blew. My second pint was Pink Pony Girl. I'm not typically into blondes, but this one was so good!!! I had 3 pints of it! Ladd & Lass has become one of our favorite local breweries! Great beer and a fun place to hang out! read more

This is in the old Floating Bridge Brewing location. It's a nice space because it's far enough off the ave/away from campus that it has more of a family/neighborhood feel to it. Space isn't huge but unless there's an event it's usually not too crowded. They have a projector screen to show games etc in the upper seating area. Outside food is allowed. read more

Had a pleasant experience at Ladd & Lass. The brewery is spacious with light amounts of decor, games to play and encouragement to bring your own take-out food. I stopped in as I'm always eager to try a new brewery. I briefly spoke to one of the owners who stated they'd been there for two years. I came on a Saturday evening to a decent number of patrons from groups of friends to a family with children who were playing board games (which are available to play). I am always looking to enjoying a nice juicy IPA, and I noticed here at Ladd & Lass they had four. I could've sampled them but decided to go straight for a flight. My impressions of them were average. The best of the bunch was the "Rainbow FTW" IPA which has slight notes of pineapple, guava and more as well as portions of money from pours of this go to a cause. The others just didn't hit in the flavor or aromatic department. Perhaps they'll rotate out for some newer additions will come that will be more hit and finish. Beyond that, the atmosphere and service are great here. read more

So glad I made it to Ladd & Lass Brewing! There was a brewery here previously but I feel like it's improved considerably since Ladd & Lass opened. For one the tasting room seems brighter and I feel like the quality of the beer is better as well! For this brewery I had three of their beers all in which I really enjoyed! I had a pale ale here to start with which was great. It was a great representative for this style of beer! After that I had a hoppy pilsner which I also thoroughly enjoyed! Sometimes hoppy pilsners can be too hoppy and kills the biscuity flavor but that wasn't an issue here. Good job balancing the flavor! Finally I took home a crowler of the Sweet and Light which was a coffee lager which was subtle and sweet. The sweetness was well handled and wasn't too overboard. Steve enjoyed it too! Very good beer and another reson to go to the University District! read more

Ladd & Lass Brewing - Silence is Golden ~ Kolsch - Breweries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I have always been curious about this brewery since I always pass by it in the U-District, and I am so glad I finally did. My only regret is that I wish I had gone here sooner! This brewery is family and pet friendly, and the customer service is superb. Although it is a small hole-in-the-wall brewery, it has an intimate setting. Be sure to get here early because tables will fill up rather quickly. If you are not a beer drinker like myself, I recommend the boysenberry lemonade cider. It was refreshing and delicious. This is the perfect drink for the summer season, and it's right around the corner! I will definitely be back. read more

Came here for their trivia night on Thursdays and really loved the atmosphere here. The staff was super friendly and helpful when we asked questions about the beers. They had good options as well for my friends that don't love beer and prefer cider or sours. The location is a bit of a walk from other restaurants so they'll sometimes have food trucks outside with great options to pair with your beer. Also they're dog friendly! Limited street parking only in this area or there's a paid lot next door. Read the street parking more carefully than me; I ended up with a parking ticket :( read more

Absolute gem! I stopped by here before a husky game and this is a wonderful brewery. I'm jealous of these Seattle neighborhood breweries living on the eastside. The tap list is varied and excellent. There is something for everyone here, and half pours are available to let you try a number of beers at a reasonable pace. There are snacks and games available, and a couple of tvs with sports on. Besides the beer being fresh and having excellent complexity, the ladd and lass running the brewery are wonderful hosts and conversationalists. So far it is just a husband and wife duo here, and I had a great conversation with Jessie while I tasted a few of their brews. I need to find more excuses to get back here. read more

Ladd & Lass turned out to be the much needed, air-conditioned oasis we needed on a hot, 93 degree day! I generally go for sours and their It's Always Sunny was A+++. It was super refreshing and crisp, and so good that I didn't think twice about ordering my second pint. They have a ton of games, a shuffleboard table, and are dog-friendly. What else can you ask for? read more

We enjoyed our experience trying out this brewery. They offer flights which was nice for sampling beers and ciders on their menu. The bartender was super friendly and knew everything about their menu. I would definitely come back here if I was in the area again. They do not serve food, however if you wanted to order delivery they allow you to bring food in. My favorite beer there was the Jasmine Rice Lager. read more

A modern and relaxed take on a completely local brewery. They offer six one of a kind beverages in different varieties to suit an individual's preference. If you're looking for a quiet place to converse or just to hang out I would recommend lad & pass brewing! They also have some board and card games if your friends want to kick it in the evening. There is also public transit just around the corner as well as a public parking lot within a one minute walk. read more

Wow, these guys are displaying legit skills. Their palette of styles is very wide, from a UK-inspired dark mild (updated with, ahem, carbonation) to a stellar example of a west coast IPA. I tried 7 of their beers and I would call all of them 5 star examples. So many of our major breweries offer 8 IPAs and a porter. It's rare to find a brewery, especially right out of the gate, paying homage to this diversity of styles with thoughtful and clever current and regional twists. I have a friend who doesn't drink IPAs. Whenever we go out, it's like bringing the vegan to the steakhouse. The available choices are an afterthought. Here, he can have an excellent Vienna lager. Beer enthusiasts, come here. They deserve to succeed. read more

Wow - gorgeous new place. Beer is yummy - worth trying a couple different kinds, and it's not just "varieties of IPA" - and there's even wine on tap. The vibe is very modern and airy, plenty of sunlight, lively but not too loud to have an actual conversation. The owners are a husband and wife team , Seattle natives, and are super nice.

Ladd & Lass has officially made my favorite beer of all time - their coffee ale is phenomenal! Silky smooth, so aromatic, and incredibly delicious. This fantastic new brewery is worth the trip for the coffee ale alone, but every other beer is fantastic as well! My friend and I are visiting Seattle and were looking for local breweries, and this one checks all our favorite boxes - friendly owners, board games available, and DELICIOUS beer! We got two flights of 4 and tried everything. Our favorites were their hazy IPA, kolsch, and coffee ale. Ladd & Lass is a new go-to spot for every time we are in Seattle!! read more
