    Dog friendly!
    Lizzy S.

    Had a great time at Phinney Station on a Sunday evening. While there are a mix of kids and adults there, there's enough space to find an area where you can get what you're looking for -- more quiet, or part of the action. They also have covered areas and some indoor tables as well. The employees were very nice and helpful when trying to make a decision about what local beer to get. I liked that they have some onsite food options, but it seems like you can also pick something up and bring it over. There were also plenty of pups there and they all seemed well behaved! It was great to be able to bring our dog with us on a night out. Overall, we'll definitely be making our way back to Phinney Station!

    A better name might be: Screaming Baby and Running Toddler Taproom... Yes, it's family friendly, but couldn't there be a section for those of us who would like to be able to hear a dining companion without the shrieking of babies and toddlers? Seriously. On the plus side... the polenta fries are beyond delicious - scrumptious crispy fries served with honey and sprinkled with parmesan. My Mai Tai was mighty tasty too... Phinney Station - please consider an "adults only" section...

    Went here Friday after 5 PM. I would leave extra time to find parking if you're driving. There's a lot of seating upstairs and downstairs. Didn't get to try the food trucks, but they seem to have a pretty good selection . My partner got a beer and I had a really good slushy. they had three or four different types of alcoholic and non-alcoholic slushies.We got our drinks right away and got a nice seat upstairs. May be crowded at times, but we had a lot of fun doing a mini crawl in the neighborhood.

    Looking at main bar front. Felt slightly lacking

    Food trucks outside made it cool. Service was bland. The girl was trying her best. It's a couple food trucks with great seating and a bar-ish (look at the pics). If you look at it for a bar to just hang and watch a game there's better in the area. It's a cool spot but lacks personality and reminded me more of a juice bar with your patio as seating. Parking not too easily available.

    Structures FVZZ on tap! Hell yes! Enjoyed on the rooftop deck!

    My husband and I first found Phinney Station during the Greenwood car show over the summer. They weren't technically open, but they did have a mobile beer truck onsite for the car show. We loved the vibe of the place and looked forward to visiting when it was open! Well yesterday was the day we finally made it back! Well LOVED it! They have great beer options (a few of our favorite breweries: Structures & Ravenna!!) And if you aren't a beer connoisseur like me, they have the whole gamut of options!! Including (and not limited to) cocktails, mimosa bar and slushies (I think at least 6 slushy options!) Perfect spot to meet friends or family. (Family friendly so they do have non alcoholic options as well!) We sat upstairs on the deck. It was a colder fall day, so the overhead heaters and gas fire pits on the tables were a nice (and needed) touch! I was actually surprised with the amount of seating indoors and out! We will be back, regularly! We loved the vibe & the options! We have friends that come from out of town often and this is definitely a place we will be taking them!!

    I have no pets or kids but enjoyed my experience here. I live in Ballard but we come up to the Phinney/Greenwood neighborhood from time to time to do our weekly walk. We were just down the street cause I had to pick up a bag of coffee for a friend on the east coast. We had walked by earlier in the year when Phinney Station was under construction. It is definitely a neighborhood space and they knew their target market. All the little touches that definitely cater to families with children. The low restroom door handle, stool in the restroom so a child can reach the sink and large changing table. We didn't make it upstairs we sat outside at a picnic table. My friend and I don't mind being around animals or kids. There are some yard games outside and a fire pit. We were there on a nice weather day, curious to see how many people visit when the weather hets cooler and wetter. The outside is well covered but hope the fall and winter months don't effect business too much. There is a Mexican/Asian fusion food truck for food. They seem well organized, have buzzers so you know your order is ready. Food was decent my friend got the fish and chips which cane with a side of caramelized pineapples slaw. I had the Bulgogi steak salad. I would agree the slushy drinks are on the sweeter side but $12 seemed like a decent price for them, and they have a list of other non slushy cocktails and beer and liquor to select from. I didn't think the wait time line for drinks was too slow for how busy they were on a Monday. Staff were friendly. Like that there are wait stations for you to put trays, garbage etc. Well marked compost and garbage bins. They even have a cup for your straw wrappers at the bar. Was a nice casual space that we we probably visit again if on the neighborhood

    If you are a childless cat/dog lady like I am, then this place is not for you. It's marketed as a family friendly establishment and wow, the families really said "bet" on that. Cool cocktails at a good price, but the daycare atmosphere really kills my vibe. Bummer because the rooftop patio is cool, but I can only handle so much shrieking from the children.

    My husband and I went there for our first time tonight and the service was amazing! We had a burrito and 3 different tacos from the food truck - they were fantastic. My husband often gets burritos and he said this was the best he's had in over a year. The cocktails were wonderful and our server, Vinnette, was awesome!!! We will definitely come back! #phinneystation @phinneystation #buzzybooth

    This place is such a vibe! I'm glad to finally check it out on a bustling Friday night. Its design is like a Barbie Dreamhouse with all the hot pink trim throughout. They have 2 food trucks/pods there right now. Culina being one of them which serves up exceptional food! I love their Smashburgers, Garlic Fries, and Polenta Fries that is an award winner and it's obvious why. Keep in mind that Culina is only here a few times a week. Phinney Station was very lively on a Friday night with both adults and kids present. So, yes, this place is family-friendly. There is ample tables and seating on two levels that are basically open-air, plus a few pinball machines upstairs, and an outstanding bar where I ordered a refreshing Frosé. I think you can eat here year-round because I spotted a lot of overhead heat lamps. Street parking only. Leave your attitude and worries at the door. What a cool Phinney Ridge business!!!

    How I heard of this place: Having been under construction for months, and on our walking path, we witnessed the space going up and many in the neighborhood eagerly awaited its opening. Type of cuisine: A food cart serving Mexican food is available at the patio. Inside, "fancy" slushies, some containing alcohol, a couple not. Ambiance: A fun outdoor space, turf covered patio with umbrella seating and space heaters (for the coming cold weather), as well as a small turf space for lawn games exist outside. Follow the line indoors, where open air is welcomed on warm summer days, to a bar-inspired seating area under the cover of a roof, which doubles up as the floor to the upstairs covered patio loft. Upstairs, patrons will also find a lounge area for indoor seating, alongside pinball machines. The space is very new and modern and carries a cool aesthetic. What I ordered: Not being people who consume alcohol, we selected two of their three non-alcoholic options - strawberry lemonade and watermelon. The third was a margarita flavor, which seems to be made with non-alcoholic tequila, a flavor that wasn't at all one any of us enjoyed. The watermelon was powerfully sweet in a fake watermelon way, similar to a watermelon lollipop, but with ten times the sugar. The strawberry-lemonade, too was overly sweet, but at least had a hint of tartness with the lemon flavor. What I loved: That you are able to sample flavors prior to committing to one. Why I loved it: The space is cool and open and has a nice vibe. The ice-y beverages made for a fun treat on a hot, summer day. Cost: Overpriced. High.

    We came here for the super viral Steak Easy pop up and it did not disappoint! There's a lot of…read morereviews saying that the wait times are long but I don't think it was that bad. We arrived right at the opening time and there was a line, but it moved pretty quickly and we got our food in about 30 min. As for the food quality, these were some of the best steaks I've had in Seattle at this price point. $15 for 4 oz steak frites is a great deal, and they really load you up on the fries so you get full even with just a 4 oz steak. The steak is cooked perfectly edge to edge pink since it's sous vide. They get a nice sear on the outside so you still develop a good crust and deep flavor. It's super tender and I love the fat cap adding a beefier richness. The best sauce by far was the Sichuan Au Poivre. It was creamy, rich, and had a light citrusy peppercorn flavor. The highlight was this sauce with the fries. The sauce soaking into the beefy tallowy frites was amazing. My only complaint is I wish it had a stronger peppercorn flavor. I also liked the duck breast with the au Poivre sauce (maybe even more than the steak).

We came right when they open and was 14th in line. The guy took our orders and then we find a seat and wait for our food to come out. It still took about 10-15 minutes before food came out so it can be a wait for those that were still in line. The place filled up fast and it was busy and lively. I was actually very excited to try the duck, but they said there was no duck available at that time so I was already disappointed, even though it was on their updated menu.... We decided just to order the 8oz steak frites with chimichurri sauce. Presentation was good, but food was mediocre at best. The steak was chewy and tough, it was bland. The fries were fine, but nothing extraordinary. The sauce didn't do anything. My husband, usually doesn't like sauces had to use ketchup and mayo to "season" the dish... We ended up didn't finish and pack the rest for home and went down the block to get something else to eat. Maybe I came on an off day but it was not worth the 35 min drive.
