Lucky envelope pineapple whip sour
Laura H.

I haven't been to The Parkway in years. I forgot how many beers they had on tap! Such good stuff. The staff was super friendly and the vibe is very chill.

French Dip, subbed salad for fries. Great sandwich!

Our neighborhood pub. We love it here so much. Great beer/bartenders and such a cozy vibe. It reminds me of "cheers". It can get really busy on Friday and Saturday nights. I also love having lunch here on quiet afternoons. The food is always fresh and delicious. So many local rotating taps, too. And love the casual outdoor seating when it's nice out.

This was an accidental date night find. My husband and I had to take my daughter to a concert in town and we're looking for a low key dinner date spot, and found this little gem. Service was great, food amazing, atmosphere 10/10 the front was a little more quiet where you could easily have an intimate setting for a date, or read a book, where is the back is a little more lively! Amazing beer selection and staff was so kind and helpful!

Came here with my family while in the Seattle area for a long weekend. We love a classic tavern and this place delivered. Great beer selection, wonderful atmosphere and service, menu was no fluff and food was delicious. Will be back!

Bacon cheeseburger with salad
Mona R.

We absolutely love parkway tavern. It's a great local hangout spot with super friendly staff. I can't say enough about how wonderful the staff is here. We used to come in often after work (pre-covid) and they always knew what our orders were and would bring it to us Today a couple of my coworkers and I decided to have lunch at parkway. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger with a side salad. The food was prepared quickly and it was so delicious. The burger was juicy and tasty and the patty was a good size. The bacon was just the right amount of crispy and the cheese was perfectly melted on the patty. I wish I could capture the smell in the photo. It was heavenly.

What's the average age?

I am 42. I see some older and some younger. Let's say 42 then.

Do you guys have a dart board and if yes do you supply the darts?

I may not be the best resource, but I believe they have digital plastic tip dart boards. I believe they have darts for it. I cant say 100%. I know they have a pool table and a shuffle board.

Are the pool tables level?

Yes. They are level and the felt is fresh...

Did they get replenish their missing pool balls?

No missing pool balls.

The atmosphere is kind of dive bar, but with really great food and cocktails. The tots, which are…read moremore of a croquette, are always amazing. We've also enjoyed the brussells sprouts. On our most recent visit we tried the nachos, and they were honestly the best nachos I've ever had. The cheese sauce is amazing- not some gross canned stuff. The chicken is perfectly seasoned, and the ingredients are layered throughout so you're not stuck with a bunch of plain chips. It feels silly to be gushing about nachos, but they are next level. It's not cheap, but well worth it!

Dirty Oscar's Annex - Disappointing Experience on 6th Ave…read more We came in as a group of seven, and unfortunately the experience went downhill quickly. First, the service was poor and disorganized. One of my friends arrived early and ordered her drink, but it didn't arrive until after I had already received mine -- even after she asked twice. We also had to wait far too long for basic things like napkins and forks because we weren't given enough for everyone. The most frustrating part, however, was the automatic gratuity. At no point were we informed -- verbally or on the menu -- that parties of 6 or more are charged an automatic 20% gratuity. We only discovered it by carefully reviewing our checks. And to make matters worse, the so-called "20%" was not actually 20%. It came out to 24.1%. When we questioned it, the person who said she was the manager claimed "the computer does it automatically." We are a table full of teachers -- and the math was definitely not mathing. We understand and respect gratuity for large parties, especially when the service is great or when it's clearly communicated. But charging more than the stated percentage crosses from poor service into a billing integrity issue. To add to the frustration, there is also a credit card processing fee, which again was not clearly disclosed on the menu and only appeared at the bottom of the receipt. This absolutely should be visibly posted before ordering. They did offer to refund some of the charges, but we declined because it would have taken additional time and we had an event to get to -- and more importantly, it doesn't resolve the core issue of lack of transparency. She also gave each of us a $10 gift card, but again, that doesn't resolve the issue. And honestly, what good is a gift card if we don't plan on returning because of such an awful experience? Overall, this was a very disappointing visit, and not one we would recommend based on service and transparency alone.
