    Slushies
    Rebecca Q.

    Friendly staff with such a wide selection of beers, ciders, kombucha, and slushies! It was a hot day so we loved the Mangonada and Gummy bear slushies. Lots of dogs and kids outside!

    Valerie S.

    Great, chill place to grab a beer or a drink that's dog friendly! They've got plenty of TVs but seating is limited. There's quite a wide variety of beers on tap plus slushies like Frose and Prosecco available. Red Mill burgers is just next door which is convenient if you want a burger and fries with your beer!

    Cherry Pie Slushie
    Wendi K.

    This spot was POPPIN on a Friday evening. Lots of drinks on tap as well as beer fridge with lots and lots of drinks. The cherry pie slushy ($11) was very sweet (low in alcohol), giant, and refreshing. Loved the whipped cream and graham cracker on top. I also picked up a THAI COCONUT JELLY FILLED DONUT sour beer. Like what?! I couldn't not. Pricey though. Dog friendly so got to peep lots of adorable pups.

    Saké Winter Margarita

    Good vibe! We came for drinks on a Saturday evening. The vibe was low key. We didn't hand to wait for a table. Loved the feel of the Winter Margarita. It was topped with cranberry and rosemary. 2 easily disappeared. Our family lives close and recommend this taproom. It did not disappoint.

    What a cool spot to grab something to drink. My spouse got food next door at Red Mill and I came here to grab a beer. I ordered the Cloudburst Party Emojis and it was light and crispy. It's a perfect 5% beer to start the day and watch a little bit of the game. It is a very chill spot to enjoy some food and drinks. This spot stays open pretty late considering others in Phinney Ridge. It was walking distance from my family's and was nice and clean. There are plenty of options to choose from whether you like beer, wine, or frose.

    Looking for a great taproom in Seattle? Then head over to Ridgewood Bottle and Tap near Phinney Ridge & Greenwood. They have a great outdoor patio to enjoy a cold beer under the sun. Their taproom inside is comfortable and inviting. Great beers, great service, excellent vibe! Tip: Order a burger at Red Mill Burgers next door and bring it over to the taproom. Bringing your own food is encouraged! Cheers!

    Sour beer slushie
    Torrie N.

    Ridgewood is awesome! During quarantine, I ordered beers from them (via online site) - super easy! Just show up and your beers are there ready for you to pick up! Love the variety of beers that they have (including some fruit/sours) and that they're lesser known breweries located in other parts of the country, so there's no way I would have discovered them otherwise! You can also consume your beer onsite and there are many to choose from. They recently opened up the inside - outside seating is available too. Sometimes they have food trucks (Tip: follow them on IG for the most current updates on the boozy slushy flavors and other happenings, etc.) They also have boozy slushies which rotate flavors but they generally have one that is a sour beer one, one cider one, and then a rose one (I think). I almost always get the sour beer ones --really unique flavor combinations (e.g. Blueberry cheesecake) - super refreshing especially in the hot weather!

    Prosecco slushie
    Courtney F.

    Cutest place, inside and out! OK OK I'll share more details about what I mean by that. Inside: workers were phenomenal - so nice, so patient, so helpful. They have a wide selection of canned beers to buy if you're on the go, and lots of great options on tap as well. I actually ordered one of the slushees (Prosecco), and it's nice to have one other option for non beer drinkers. It's also connected to Redmill burgers, so this is a great option for eats since they encourage outside food if you're hungry. Outside: looks so cute, lots of outside seating. One problem is parking (but this is typical for seattle breweries). I was able to find parking a couple of streets down and walk.

    Heated outdoor seating
    Janine J.

    A quaint little brewery on the curve of the street. Normally, I would've ordered a flight & sampled the beer. But too cold & rainy today! I saw a sign that said Mulled Wine so I stopped. Still not allowed to sit inside but they had outdoor seating available. They do provide heaters outside but it's still cold for me. However I did sit and drink my Mulled wine outside & it warmed me up perfectly. Before I left, I ordered the other hot drink special, Buttered Sake. It was also delicious! Will definitely be back in the Spring or Summer to try the beer!

    Frose
    Jennifer L.

    I am always always looking for a new spot to chat it up with friends and I am so happy my friend suggested this place! They have a great selection of beer but I especially lovee their Frose! There's a decent amount of tables to sit at outdoors but more standing room! It's all first come first serve though. I would wish they disclosed that buying the Frose also meant purchasing their jar with it, and apparently you can return the jar to get $2 back. I didnt know this until my friend let me know, but other than that it's a lovely place

    Jennifer L.

    Great location, super chill and lax ambiance, service is good, and nice variety of beer and cider. They also have slushees and wine as well. They have a cooler full of single beers to buy for take home. I noticed that many of them were on tap. It's family friendly so you can bring your kids. Ridgewood is located right next to Red mill burgers. I noticed that most people there would order their food and have a beer while waiting. I prefer IPA's and beer that have very fruity after taste. I ended up going with an IPA and my boyfriend got a flight. The flight consisted of mainly IPA with one pale ale. All the beers we got were refreshing and more on the lighter side. The great notion over ripe was more hoppy and tasted very piney. I really liked my 16 oz pour of stout mother of exiles.

    Frose and Prosecco frose
    Maylee W.

    Very happy I found Ridgewood- my friend lives a block away and so very convenient to walk and have a refresher in the afternoon! We brought our own signature Ridgewood mason jars to try out the slushees - frose and Prosecco- both were refreshing. I drank most of it and didn't really feel a buzz but overall enjoyed my froses! Next visit I'll have a seat outside and enjoy the ambiance.

    Frosé with and without gummy bears
    Sienna G.

    I was a little hesitant to write this review since Ridgewood is the best kept secret in town! We had a friend come to visit this past weekend during the worst Seattle heatwave since 1945 (106 degrees outside!). On Saturday, we somehow dragged ourselves to the zoo to show her a "good" time. After seeing barely any animals due to the heat, and feeling fairly delirious ourselves, we searched for a nearby bar with prayers for AC. This is how we stumbled upon Ridgewood. For the next two days, myself and my 2 friends holed up at Ridgewood enjoying the AC while getting a nice afternoon buzz from the variety of slushees offered. After sampling all 4 of their options, the frosé and the sour were our favorites. The bartender (Alex I believe?) was super friendly and brought us water refills, as well as topped off our slushees with delicious gummy bears. His service was above and beyond which we appreciated given our heat exhaustion. After seeing a dog there the first day, I brought my puppy with me the next day so she could bask in the cool AC as well. Miraculously, we all survived the heatwave and I credit part of our survival to Ridgewood :)

But I have only recently stepped inside to do Too Good To Go late night pickups on 10/16/25 and 11/6/25. This is one of many newer businesses along the stretch of Stone Way N from Seattle's Wallingford to Fremont neighborhoods. This is a nice, intimate spot with welcoming staff. There are both table and counter seating on the main floor, additional seating on the upper floor. Pleasant, cozy ambiance with wall art, merch, and low light. Quite a large variety of wine bottles to imbibe onsite or peruse for purchase and takeout. Judging from my TGTG pickups, they have a great baked goods source/purveyor whether from onsite or obtained elsewhere. I've been able to enjoy quality baguettes, artisan loaves, sweet and savory baked goods. This is indicative that onsite menu items are high quality to accompany any apps/small plates/charcuterie plates and glasses of wine. I look forward to someday an actual onsite visit to experience this first hand.

I've enjoyed a chocolate cake with delicious chocolate ganache for dessert. Carrot cake and shortcake with fluffy whipped cream are lovely as well.. that's the good stuff.

We opted to dine on the prior, and they even adjusted the heat down when it became too toasty. Delightful to sit sidewalk adjacent and enjoy some rays of sun. Rosemary focaccia was complimentary and came with a pat of whipped butter. The butter was relatively flavorless, and the bread was average.. My friend swears by the spaghetti carbonara and it looked fantastic. Well studded with pancetta and a beautiful presentation. They were out of rigatoni (odd, but I'm flexible) which typically comes with the spicy sausage dish. The pappardelle were cooked perfectly. You could not have done any better. The sauce? Absolutely delicious. Hearty chunks of sausage had a great flavor, with a wide variety of mushrooms. The sauce was creamy with a light kick. Thé sprout garnish provided just the right textural difference and freshness. Fantastic dish. I'd order this every time and not be disappointed. The wine was good. I selected a newly arrived Sauvignon blanc, but it could have been colder or crisper to do it justice. Thé grappa afterwards (bartenders choice - Nardini Riserva) was delicious. Just the right amount of strength to get your attention, but finished with a hint of pear and vanilla flavor. Yes, you could consider this to be oricy for "just noodles" but they're phenomenal. The quality and freshness of the ingredients, combined with the attention to detail and the great team are what makes this five stars. Worth every dime.

The server said they often have them for pairing events, so depending on timing you might catch fresh oysters too. Compared to other wine bars or tasting rooms in town, Aluel strikes a rare balance: serious about wine craft but laid back in vibe, welcoming instead of pretentious, and offering well curated bites that elevate rather than distract.
