Owners are great, and the space is amazing. There is a cigar shop next door, which is very convenient.

Great private cigar lounge right on the water. If you're looking to smoke a cigar most definitely the best spot in Seattle.

5/5 starts the Owner and associates are absolutely amazing. They go above and beyond. I only go to…read morethis location. They are amazing. The selection here is above and beyond. They have only the best product and the value is amazing. I will continue to go back to this location because there is great value in the services they offer and in the product.

10/10 recommend! This is my new Go-To!…read more Pros -Customer Service and Personable Staff -Great Pricing -Decent Selection Cons -Not the cheapest in Seattle but this place is still my go to because it is still cheaper than most places and the staff are amazing! Otherwise I have no complaints My significant other and I have been here on multiple occasions. First time, I bought a nice small glow in the dark bong from them for a good price! Abdullah helped me get exactly what I was looking for and provided me with extremely friendly service. First time my significant other came in, he came to buy some cigs and he also received amazing service from Abdullah. Abdullah was also very personable and friendly and made us feel comfortable. Second time we both came in together and we bought some vape supplies. Mohammed let us know what's good and even helped us figure everything out. Mohammed is very personable, friendly, made us feel comfortable and went above and beyond with customer service. Selection They had a nice big selection, included half of it in the video. Value More on the cheaper side compared to most smoke shops but not the cheapest in the city. But because of the amazing customer service and personable experience, we don't mind spending the extra few bucks as it is so mininal. I believe the value is 10/10 because they provide such amazing care. My significant other and I both have agreed to make this our new smoke stop shop as this place has exceeds our expectations. Overall I HIGHLY recommend coming here! 10/10

A quite little bar with an extensive rotating tap menu. We were looking for a quick place to grab a…read moredrink after a long day exploring the city and this fit our needs perfectly. Many interesting beers to choose from and friendly service. A decent sized cooler as well if you don't see anything you like on the tap menu. You have to put a card down to start a tab and remember to go close out before you leave. Lots of cozy places to sit and watch a game on the TVs or nice two person tables for conversation. $4 Ranier pints on tap, a great local place to stop for a beer!

Hard to believe it's been more than half a decade since this place opened. They've used their time…read morewisely, without a doubt. When they began, they were a wonderfully weird little enclave of beeriness along this tawdry strip of Aurora. After years of perfecting their craft, cultivating a clientele both locally and far beyond the city limits, investing their profits carefully, and stockpiling an OCD-esque retinue of fermented delights to serve not before their time, Über is now...a wonderfully weird little enclave of beeriness along this tawdry strip of Aurora. They've added to it, certainly, though the footprint inside is still the same. They added the little sidewalk courtyard a couple years ago, and added the planter boxes around the same time. After some unsolicited overnight editorializing from the local Crackhead Gardeners Club, the ambitions of those planter boxes have been scaled back rather markedly, but the pleasant al fresco seating option remains--covered and railed in. Inside, what used to feel like a kooky house party with a fire table in the middle and big bottle coolers behind the bar now feels like a stylishly kooky house party with a fire table in the middle and big bottle coolers behind the bar. The refined blue on the walls now suggests a tony library at a gentleman's club, so be a gentleman, for heaven's sake. The multi-ton zebrawood beast of a bar suggests locales even more exotic than Aurora ("Where is that wood grown?" "Africa." "Noooo...*zebras* are from Africa. Where is zebra*wood* from?" "Under the ze..." Never mind.). The walnut ceiling-support beam suggests...that spending a butt-ton of extra money on fine hardwoods is worth it sometimes. Gone are the colossal tap towers that used to protect the bartenders from: archers, trebuchets, and being able to see customers. Well, the Delirium Tremens tower is still there, over the inlaid Scrabble board, but every bar needs a pink elephant on the corner. In addition to Scrabble, you can also play Backgammon under a heavy layer of resin, if you get the right seats. But what matters most here is the beer. And this beer selection is truly a matter of great import. Hundreds of bottles line the cooler racks, with a fair emphasis on rare and small batch big American beers and a freighter full of bigger (i.e., more alcoholic) European stuff, both classics and newer releases. There are also tap handles, now bundled together in a phalanx of malty infantry on the back wall, which boasts a luminous interweave of glass subway tiles. Such design flair! ("Yeah, I have the gay gene when it comes to decorating." You just can't make this stuff up. You can only catch people when they're loaded and write it down for blackmailing them later.) What's particularly cool about the tap lineup is the new War-Games-like array of monitors above the coolers, listing all kegs in the order they were tapped, along with the next three on deck. No more scrambling for a little green book, and wondering if you should hurry up and order a given beer in case it might kick before you get to it. The staff here has been wise and powerful since day one. This shows no signs of abating. I often hate coming in here when it's busy simply because it means less chance to shoot the breeze with them. Or throw a Frisbee. What no one bar can change, though, is the local color on display outside, along Aurora Avenue North. More than once as I have sipped a tasty beverage here, young ladies have walked back and forth and back and forth past the windows of the establishment. I figured they must have been running errands, or moving, or something, but they were never carrying anything, so it's hard to be certain. That motorized pageant of humanity, the Metro #358, stops right outside the sidewalk patio here. When a 60-foot limo rolls up, it can easily block every window in the place, making you feel like you're in a dark little cave (well, you are, not even figuratively speaking). When that 358 shadow settles over the room, what you are is an easily-distracted baby seal that just noticed the great white swimming over you and blocking out all your light. Those squealy bus brakes are the hoots of an owl in the dreams of a mouse. Über is one of the oases in a stretch of road that Seattle forgot. (Not on accident did Seattle forget this scrofulous motorway, either.) There's a bit of character lately to some businesses around here, and there's even a high-end spot across the street (PCC). You can bring in your own food from anywhere, though PCC and Beth's are natural choices, and Aloha Ramen is a personal favorite. There's a book behind the bar somewhere, full of take-out menus. Just ask for it. Every industry needs places that push to offer the best of everything. Über has very few equals, and no superiors, especially when you count the square footage. You can get lost here. Probably you should. The 358 can always take you...elsewhe
