    From the food truck
    Sonia S.

    Cool spot. Idk how I have missed this place all these years, but finally stopped in. Saw some food trucks on the corner and decided to stop and try one for lunch. Decided that we could just eat our lunch over at Beerwerks. When we walked in there was not a soul insight. Started browsing and someone came upstairs from their storage area. Asked her if they did tastes (as other reviews have specified that they dont), and she said yes. We tried a few and decided on our pours. It was a bit cold and gloomy out and was told there was a fire pit out back. We did some walking around and saw that there are many little seating areas to hang out with your friends in. We decided on a covered seating area with a fire table. Couldnt get the first one to light, like the starter didnt work. Couldnt get the second one to work, may have been out of propane. We went inside and told her about not being able to get the fire going. She was like oh one needs a lighter and provided us with one. She also said they have blankets if we are cold. We were then able to go back out and start our fire and chill out a little while we ate our food. The food was not very good (from the smokehouse bbq truck)...but the beer was good and the fire was a nice touch. Lady behind the counter did not seem very engaging, or friendly. Maybe she was having a blah day. We plan on coming back--hopefully the weather will be nicer and we can pick a better food truck.

    The outdoor seating definitely sold me. I like their endless options of wine and beer. I love that it is pet friendly and you can tell that the locals really appreciate this place.

    Front counter of pure beer joy.

    Best place to have a beer without all the noise from TVs. Clean and full of amazing beers and great customer service. Pet friendly with outdoor sitting and food cart's next door

    30+ taps including delicious stouts and ciders, and dog friendly. Relaxed and friendly vibe.

    Awesome ambiance and very dog friendly! The beer and cider selection were great, as were the outdoor fire pits. Our two dachshund puppies also enjoyed their visit

    Want great Craft Beer? Head to Northwest Beerwerks in Olympia. It's located on Steele Street in between Pacific Ave & Martin Way, near the Martin Way Diner. What I Love: 1) Huge selection of craft beers on tap, 32 taps to be exact. 2) Great place to meet up with friends. 3) Friendly bartender that wants to find the right beer for you.

    This place is pretty dope. Olympia/Lacey area could use a place like this for sure. Oly tap isnt too far away but competition is always good and more options is never a bad thing. They have a lot of seating and cool little areas to drink. They have excellent tap selection and my god some of their older barrel aged stuff is ridiculous. I saw a 2018 rusty nail. Almost bought it on the spot. I look forward to making more trips after upcoming Ultimate games. Also as an added note very dog friendly.

    Nice stop in Olympia. They have a nice selection of local beers from around the state. It is located in a renovated house which is a cool idea, one I haven't seen before. Overall, it was a good stop I would stop by here again.

    Liked both beers

    Just stopped by for a quick few beers tonight. I had the pineapple lime cider. It was great. I'm not much of regular beer drinker to let you know a lot of details. Front, inside and outback was clean and a friendly bubbly bartender. Just sitting at the bar we seen several regulars. No food but able to bring your food in. Normally a food truck is open outside but it was closed went we got there. Area located inside with 2 tables and games. Umbrella outside and it was a nice evening.

    I've always driven by this place and wanted to stop. I finally went with a friend and now I've dubbed this as my favorite place to relax and chill. It is apparently there are "regulars" but people are friendly and chatty in this open seating concept. There are opportunities to share a table and get to know someone or grab an lawn chair and sit back and people watch. No food is served here, just wine and beer. The tap list is always different. There is a good truck next door but it's not always open. People bring theirs dogs, games and settle in for a relaxing time. Extra perk: state workers get a discount!

    One of the sitting areas. Plenty of seating available.

    Is this brewery family/kid friendly or 21+?

    Good evening Ashley, we are not a brewery, but we are a craft taproom and therefore licensed as a tavern, so we are not allowed to have minors on site. Thanks for asking.

It was cold the day went but, if you get warm weather, try for their outdoor patio. I ordered the lemon rosemary hummus (delish) with gluten free crackers and it came out with lots of sliced veggies, olives and pickled carrots and onions. A great value! My main course was king salmon and it was perfect. I ordered a lemonade and was disappointed that the tall skinny glass it was served in was full to the top with ice, so there was very little left to drink. My husband enjoyed the Cesar salad he ordered, tasted like a traditional Cesar. He tried the special beef cheeks and found them to be very fatty and gelatinous. He wouldn't recommend them. They did have a N/A beer option he was happy about. Service was attentive and friendly.

The food was definitely fresh and tasted good, but nothing to rave about in comparison to the price. When the weather is nice, their outdoor seating seems like a nice dining experience.

    I want to call out the one star review by Melody P. I was at the winery when this occurred and…read morewitnessed the full incident, and I urge you to not judge this winery or its owner based on her review. To be clear, I have been coming to Endless Sound since shortly after it opened and am a wine club member. I was at the winery with friends this evening when I watched this unfold. Melody came in with a man and small child and was told to take a seat. Mark (the owner) was single-handedly managing 20-25 people while preparing for the wine and cheesecake pairing. Shortly after sitting down, Melody got up and went to the counter where she proceeded to verbally accost Mark at a high enough volume where she could be heard throughout the space. She did not allow Mark the chance to respond to her, nor did she ever try to engage with him in a less confrontational manner. After sitting, she sat and waited. She never tried to flag him down. Instead, she went straight to a verbal altercation with a raised voice, in which she made an absolute scene and embarrassed herself. She immediately ran to Yelp and left this review. Frankly, she should be ashamed. To call Mark a racist is also deeply problematic to me. As someone who has been coming to this winery since shortly after it opened, I have never once seen Mark treat anyone with something less than absolute respect and kindness. Melody's accusation has malicious intent, and frankly, maybe she was having a bad day, but Mark is a phenomenal human and welcoming to all. For those of you looking for a real opinion, this is an incredible local spot with great wines, awesome ambiance, a ton of cool events, and a wonderful and knowledgeable winemaker. Pay Mark a visit, you won't be disappointed.

They have a little corner in the back that has clothes and stuff for sale, and a little video of bob ross projected onto the wall. I really liked the ambiance. Service was super warm and friendly. The "Seattle freeze" is definitely just a Seattle thing haha. I ordered the turkey pesto waffle sandwich with a side of loaded baked potato hash browns. The sandwich was not bad. I thought it was a bit on the drier side and could've use more pesto, but still good flavor. The waffle is gluten free but I really couldn't tell. It's also a bit sweet, which made me wish I got a sweet waffle. The hash brown was definitely the star. The top and sides were crispy, and loaded potato flavors really came through. Loved the fresh chives and sour cream. Overall, really solid spot! Now I want a sweet waffle haha
