Nice line yp
Peter L.

Ridgecrest Public House is tucked away in a residential area, which also is home of the eclectic Crest Theater. It's a nice spot to grab a brew solo or meet up with friends, as they have a great tap selection (18 or so taps) as well as some wine options. The place feels like a great neighborhood spot, as it is lively without feeling too crowded or crazy. Service is quick and friendly, and there is usually a food truck in front for dining options.

Despite this being not too far from me, I have embarrassingly not been here before this past month-- both times were due to school event planning meetings with other moms who live closer to this area. First time was on a Friday evening in mid-May and since I was on a dry month did not drink but got a half order of the cheese knots (3) w/ their housemade cheese sauce. It's actually from the Drumlin pub menu (next door) and made by Kaffeeklatsch bakery on Lake City Way. The second time was on a Wednesday afternoon in mid-June. This time I did drink a couple of glasses of sparkling rose wine. Food-wise, this was dinnertime and I ordered a RIDGECREST sandwich, ($10; Grilled cheese with provolone, cheddar, mozzarella on Kaffeeklatsch sourdough) and did a side sub of soup (+$4; Tomato soup- Like marinara, with tomatoes, cashew cream, oat milk, optional parmesan cheese) Food was basic pub food, but I love the neighborhood casual vibe. I peeked at their food truck lineup on the website, which somehow I missed both times I came here and it looks impressive. Next time I'll have to wander out to the curb and try the food truck scene.

One of my favorite pubs in Seattle. It's a perfect place to hang out and get a drink. They have great food now too. They have yummy food trucks as well. Great service. Good selection of beers, board games, etc.

This adorbs little beer hall in Shoreline is a super-popular neighborhood watering hole featuring an impressive line-up of draft crafts, plus wine and cider too. During my recent visit on a soggy Saturday evening the place was full to the brim with people (and even a few dogs) enjoying tasty pints and a Mexi-Cuban food truck parked outside. No, the Ridgecrest doesn't have food, but their rotation of food trucks is on point (check out their website link on Yelp for all the deets) and would definitely be a reason to keep going back. There's seating inside and out, and it's self-service so be ready for a line at the bar if they're busy. I really loved the neighborhood feel of this place, in a way that I thought "Hmmmm, I wonder how much houses are in this area?"

First visit to Ridgecrest Public House and was primarily there to check out the food truck they were hosting, CheBogz Filipino Food Truck from Federal Way. That's a long haul to Shoreline! However, I was pleasantly surprised with the interior, well patronized pub with folks at the counter, large party at a mass table, as well as, singles and pairs. The bartender in particular was very friendly and well versed in products served. The Sea Cider Wolf in the Woods was well received. Nice that they host a variety of food trucks and allow outside food to be consumed onsite. They provide a calendar so you can try a variety or follow a favorite. Even saw someone come in with a box of Jimmy John sammies. Variety of beer, wine, ciders, and soda available. Bummer there was no Rachel's Ginger Beer during my visit, but that a minor blip. Nice find in Shoreline's Ridgecrest neighborhood, diagonal from Cafe Aroma and around the corner from the Crest movie theater.

Lots of beers on tap.

Nice atmosphere, plenty of beers on tap - 22. Well organized menu with 6 categories. Lots of combinations of flights of wine or taplist of beers.

Tasting flight. Love the cranberry cider.
Jocelyn H.

Good customer service, very friendly staff. Love the wood work and the atmosphere. The tasting flight was good, my favorites are the guava and the cranberry cider. Lots of beer selection. I love how they allow food trucks to park up front and be able to eat the food inside the pub. Will definitely come back.

I made it home safe tonight. Thank you! I appreciate your service! Drinks were tasty and the staff…read moreis nice.

I am giving this little place five stars for two reasons: one is the amazing, welcoming attitude of…read morethe place, and the other is because I only drank soda and nobody cared. Mesh, the bartender was so amazing, friendly and approachable. I came into this little place with a feeling of history. You see, my mom worked here for years in the 70's, 80's and early 90's. I loved that the bar is modernized just enough to make it comfy, but with enough of the old feel to make it feel as though my mom was still there. As my mom passed away several years ago, I walked in with tear-filled eyes and Meesh totally understood and even allowed me to play my mom's favorite song on the juke box. So, with Lyin Eyes on the awesome and modern jukebox and the neon booze signs on the walls, I could actually feel my mom in the room, telling her infamous dirty jokes. I shared this with everyone, and we all raised a glass in her honor. Tequila shots for my companions and a water shot for me! I love that they serve hard alcohol here, makes for a nice variety in drinks and patrons. Now, on this particular night, there were only 3 others in the bar (maybe 4), but it was a great atmosphere. The entire place is super clean with updated bathrooms with the doors I'm sure were there when the place was built. Now, I don't drink and have never really been a regular at a bar, but the welcoming environment and friendly Meesh, I am certain I'll be back again & again. If you are in Kenmore, stop in for a nice beverage, good conversation and homey atmosphere!
