Fremont Brewing is a community hub and one of my favorite places to hang out for a casual date or…read morelarge group meet-ups. They have ample indoor and outdoor spaces that are perfect during the summertime and pretty much any time throughout the year because of its flexible layout, fireplace, and scattered heat lamps outside. Fremont Brewing has a nice selection of beers on tap, non-alcoholic options, and cans for sale as well. Kids and pets seem to also be welcome and are not frowned upon! Their resident food truck is Smash That Burger which pairs well with their beverage options. Check them out the next time you are in the Fremont neighborhood.

Visited here, because we wanted a place to chill for a few hours before our flight back home. It…read morewas a beautiful day, so we were really happy to find a place with a nice outdoor patio. Everything was fine until an employee came up behind us, reached over our shoulders, took my partner's still half-full drink, and threw it away. Didn't say anything. Didn't explain why. We were so stunned in the moment, we didn't think to argue. Even the other patrons sitting next to us also looked really startled. It was only when the initial surprise wore off that one of them spoke up and said, "I think it's because your drink can't be in the can. It has to be in a glass cup." Now, I wasn't with my partner when they ordered their drink at the front counter (I don't really drink much, and I was in the bathroom at the time), so whether the situation was: A) my partner paid at the counter and took the drink (still in the can), thinking everything was a done deal or B) the employee at the front forgot to pour the drink in the apparently required glass cup before giving it to my partner ~ I have no idea ~ Whichever scenario it was, what I DON'T understand is why the employee who took the drink couldn't have explained the situation to us and offered a glass cup in the moment? Or why an employee didn't stop my partner from walking away with the drink at the very beginning when he purchased it so that it could be poured in the requisite cup? Bare minimum: why was the apparent rule not explained at any point? I tried looking for signs in the patio area that stated the rule after the fact, but I could not see any. Maybe I'm blind?? Maybe this is a Seattle thing? But if it's a Seattle thing, why did the people sitting next to us (who seemed like locals) also seem surprised by the behavior? Even if at least some of them were maybe aware of the rule, at the very least they seemed just as startled as we were to witness an employee take away a customer's ~already paid for drink~ no explanation. Disclaimer: this was back in late February-early March of 2026, so if they have since added such signs - great, perfect, love it - but I only just got around to writing this review now. 7 months later. Because I suddenly remembered and felt the need to warn others who plan on going here (especially if you're from out-of-town and they haven't added signs): make sure your drink is in a glass cup or else someone might come up behind you and throw it away.

Super friendly, casual and family friendly. We stopped in at the new location in Ballard and…read moreenjoyed it. Hubby had the chicken sandwich which was "tasty" while I had the taproom burger which was nice and not too big. The Russian dressing is off the chain and perfect for the shoestring fries. The Evan Williams 'Bourbon & Butterscotch' ice cream was thick and creamy. Amble outdoor seating offers both covered seating with levered ceiling, as well as outdoor fire pits perfect for summer seating. There was a family with young children who were happy in their own corner of the patio. I spotted the outdoor screens for sports coverage. And, they're dog friendly! This one definitely checks all the boxes!

I can attest as I had the fish sando and that was life changing. Perfectly cooked. The crisp really stood out on the breading and the jalepeno aioli tied everything together. I also got some beers to go as they had a great selection. Also, don't sleep on the onion rings. Crazyyyyyyyy good. Can't wait to make it back!

We sat at the bar and our bartender was super friendly (even passed us a deck of cards), great recs, and good energy. We got some chicken skewers to start which were very tender and also got hot dog and smash burger which were good. The beers were the star--so many options. The Oktoberfest was really good. And highly recommend getting the rodenbach classic red ale because it was very unique. Would love to be back sometime!

However, we waited a super long time for food which was not great given we had a show to run to. We ordered burgers and a pulled pork sandwich and for the amount of money, they are extremely disappointing. The burgers/sandwiches are smaller than a McDonald's burger which is so sad. The pulled pork itself was kinda dry and the flavor was fine. Fries and tater tots were fine as well. Nothing amazing. Overall, was a little sad with the experience. The food was super overpriced for the food, and the wait for food was extremely long. It probably makes for a good hangout spot with the happy hour, huge space, and numerous tvs, but idk. Not for me

They have air hockey and a decent selection of video games and pinball. I suggest bringing cash to exchange for quarters on the change machines that are there. There is an ATM machine that takes a physical credit/debit card to withdraw cash to exchange for quarters but I'm guessing they'll charge a fee. Check their open hours online. In general, all ages are welcome until 8pm. Beer, cider, non-alcoholic drinks are available and a few other goodies. Including 2 groovy bathrooms on site that are of course covered with stickers. Such a super cool and fun place! I think you'll get a kick out of it, too.

No heating elements necessary on this day as it was hot and humid in this early afternoon. I was impressed by their board that lists everything on tap with ABV and IBU as well as prices for all ranges of sizes that they offer. They had 2 stout options and I tried a 5 oz. Extra Loud Irish Stout Nitro ($3.50). Lady bartending was friendly enough and answered questions well, although my 5 oz was 4 oz of foam when she handed it to me, so patience before drinking was necessary. If you like Guinness, it very much reminded me of that, although I prefer my stout more sweet and less coffee-esque.

They happened to be having an event with live bands and were donating money from drink sales! There was a good crowd and all the live music was actually enjoyable! There's a food truck parked outside and we tried the carnitas, mole, and tinga tacos which were all very tasty. Unfortunately they ran out of a lot of options by the time we got there around 6:30pm. The bar is right through the front doors with a smaller room to the right, and bathrooms and the large hall on the left. The bartender was super nice and we liked our drinks! We agreed that this is a place we need to come back to more often, especially in the summer when it's warm and we can enjoy the outdoor area!

Wish I asked for a name but the guy working was so friendly. My only call out is they don't have much for food (the website was a bit misleading, we were under the impression they had their full menu) - only hot dogs and food trucks depending on timing. That being said, they have a carry in policy so had we known we could have brought our own!
