Sluggers is one of my favorite pre and post game watering holes. It can get absolutely packed, but the bartenders are fast, friendly, and incredibly good at what they do. There are a few booths against the wall and bar stools (at the bar), they also have an upstairs area. If you time it right, you can usually find seating. If you go just before or after a game, expect to stand with your drink. read more

A big shoutout to Slugger's for being one of the few restaurants that still knows the meaning of Customer Service. They made a minor mistake on my sandwich which they immediately fixed. Now most restaurants would have left it at that and called it good. Slugger's went the extra mile and took it off the bill. read more

Sluggers Seattle - French Dip & a Bloody Mary. - Sports Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Sluggers has a special place in my heart. We've been coming here for years after various sporting events and there's just something so....magically chaotic about it. If you go when it's busy it can be overwhelming - although I'm not sure I've ever randomly come in when it's not (because it's always after the Seahawks or Mariners). As long as you're in a good mood, the bouncers and staff will return it. I've seen things get pretty ugly (as expected) when people are overly intoxicated. But every time we've been in it's been good - we always get lots of cheap beer and macaroni and cheese bites - and they aAre the best I have found in the area. So if you are looking for a post game snack (or a place to watch the game if you don't have tickets) - this is the spot. Just set your expectations ahead that it may be busy and roll with it, and you'll have a great time. read more

Immediately upon walking smelled of urine. Staff made me feel incredibly uncomfortable as a women.

Sluggers is a great Seattle landmark! They have survived all the ups and downs that the city hands restaurants. Food is great. The staff is friendly and the service is really incredible for how busy they always are. It's covered with sports memorabilia, which makes the ambience so cool! There's a lot of new places to go to in SoDo, but I will only be going Sluggers! ! read more

This place is exceptional! The service is quick, attentive, friendly, and engaging. The numerous TVs mean you can watch about any game at any time. The extended hours mean you can watch international games that are in the morning. The food is good, bar is well-stocked, and the vibe is great for the sports crowd. Extra special goes out to Shelley and Sal, who went out of her way to make me feel like I've been a regular for years. Kudos! read more

We visited this place a few weeks ago during the Seahawk Divisional game. It was crowded, fun, and had excellent customer service. We love the energetic and good vibe of this place. Thanks for your hard work. read more

THE traditional stop before, during, and after any and all Seattle games! Two levels of seating and family friendly. All things Seattle sports team memorabilia cover the walls of this historic and longstanding bar. TVs galore, so there's no way you're going to miss any televised sports event even if you tried. Bar food is as expected, drinks are the perfect solution to any hangover or one in the making, and staff is amazing - especially bartender Matt S., tell him I sent ya! Mushroom Swiss burger with tots = YES. Chicken tenders are thin, so don't expect juicy cutlets. However, they have KRINKLE FRIES!!!! Krinkle fries are a dying delicacy in my opinion and I LOVE that they serve them here. Sluggers will always be THE game prefunk spot, after game hotspot, and during game alternative. They are the only spot in the area with NFL Ticket games airing during football season. LONG LIVE SLUGGERS! read more

Best buffalo wings in the city HANDS DOWN honestly im not from the PNW but so far it's been hard to come by some really good wings. I love them so much I order them every time w a cold beer. The wings are so juicy & crispy and I actually like that they put the buffalo sauce served on the side. GO HERE....GET THEM LOL this place is a hidden gem forsure & a great place to watch a game! read more

So I see so many negative reviews here about certain wait staff and the owner. Service my group received during our visit was excellent. So I would say the type of service you may get could vary! Our waiter was amazing. Just the right amount of interactions with us and was very friendly and cool. We were here for lunch and this venue is surprisingly huge once you get inside. I always passed by this place and thought it was some sort of a to-go pick up place (or a hot dog place) but I was very wrong. It's a full bar/restaurant with lots of items on the menu. If you order one of their sandwiches or burgers, it comes with a choice of side salad, tots, or fries. Prices were very good for how much food you get. I ordered the Western Burger and chose tots as my side and it was stupid huge lol. The issue was... I thought the food was very mediocre. I think the food lacked seasoning. Fries and Onion rings were good but the tots and the burger were just....okay. Also the burger had too much BBQ sauce. 5 for service. 2 for food. This place is on par with Elysian (right next door) in terms of food. Burb's Burgers around the corner is much much better. read more

Popped in here for a beer before the concert and was impressed. The space was lively with lots of people hanging out. The bartenders were spot on with prompt service and happy to help with any questions. Though I was in a time limit this time, I can't wait to come back and hang out more before soon. read more

Tried to take down my review multiple times OUR WAITRESS WAS DRUNK and accused us of not paying for drinks we didn't order. Hopefully this one won't get taken down will never return to this bar. Much better bars in the area read more

Fun atmosphere but the food was sub par. Ordered a veggie burger with fries, the veggie patty was mushy and the fries were wimpy. my husband ordered the peanut butter burger with tractor tots and he enjoyed both. Don't think I would come back. read more

Old school cool bar in a easy location around the stadiums. Servers handle the crowd as well as one can. When it's packed it's a bit tough to walk through but you find your spaces. read more

Terrific place! Great food. Kid friendly. Atmosphere prior to Sounders game was packed! Food was excellent. Many choices. Great tasting and excellent spices. Clean and friendly people working. Large portions of food and plenty to eat! read more

Bouncer here threatened to beat me up when I asked jokingly him where the stairs was. He did not beat me up when I confronted him later, but did throw a fit when he realized he was caught. Overall super uncomfortable experience. No jokes here. Edit: Adding more context since I have received two notices that they have tried to remove my review. I attempted to resolve the matter at time of the incident but they were unwilling. Came here after a Mariners game. As I was getting my ID checked a group of women were leaving and were asked why by the bouncer. They said it was too crowded and he asked if they checked upstairs. They didn't know about the upstairs and went up. This somehow upset the bouncer who muttered to my group about how stupid they were. I didn't realize how upset at the time and made a joke about the obvious stairs. This also somehow really upset him and he said when he gets off his stool he was going to beat me up, but more explicitly. My group left after going inside and feeling uncomfortable. We left out the back. I came back later to confront the bouncer and ask to speak with someone. Bouncer refused to grab anyone, claiming he let me in so I shouldnt be upset. I called their number to speak someone, a manager said they would be right out. Never came. Assistant manager came out to smoke and de-escalated, said the manager was never actually going to come out. I'm never expecting a doorman/bouncer to be in a great mood. Their job is hard and they have to deal with a lot. However, I think it crosses a line when you start making violent threats at people. This is my actual experience when I came. When speaking to the assistant manager he told me the doorman had been here ten years and theyve been around for 26 so weren't too worried about the reputation. Now, I keep getting requests for my review to get removed. read more

Recently attended a Mariners game and my friend were in search of a place for an pre-game adult beverage. We stumbled upon this on our walk to the stadium. The bouncer outside checked our ID and welcomed us in. From the outside I would have never have know what a cool spot this was. We ordered double bloody Mary's, perfection! What a totally cool sports bar! Wall to wall TV's with sports on. Walls are decorated with some unique sports memorabilia. A very cool 2 story venue that I would definitely go back to! read more

Exceptional sports bar. The location other than being inside of the stadiums, is as close as you can be. Great burgers, draft beers and atmosphere. Highly recommended! read more

Great atmosphere. Perfect sport to enjoy the game and drink some beers. Food was really good and they were very attentive with service.

Look, this is a great spot BUT they serve Guinness in a plastic cup on game days I asked for a glass and was told no...not cool.

A classic, dive-y sports bar which has the optimal setup for watching a game -- it's essentially a long tunnel with seats on one side and TVs on the other. The staff was attentive and checked in on us often. The tater tots were great and easy to share and snack on. They were also kind enough to leave the bar open for a bit longer so that we could finish watching the games, which was much appreciated. read more

Stopped in as we waited for family prior to a kids event. Food arrived "pipping hot" (fries too). Gotta tell you not only was the food hot but it was excellent. Had the French dip with grilled onions. So good. Team members were friendly and on point taking care of patrons. My hat is off to your employees. Would definitely recommend read more

They were really busy before the baseball game, but managed pretty well. The bartender came out to our table a few times to get our food and drink order, which was nice. He did a great job keeping up with everyone! Solid bar food and cocktails. Will definitely go back read more

First things first I want to say that I love Sluggers. I've never seen them overserve a single person in my patronage of the bar. It gets busy like every other popular bar, to be sure, but I think it generally does a really good job of catering to its customer base. I found this originally on Yelp forever ago & was surprised I hadn't made this review earlier. Do yourself a favor and order the Bacon Jalapeño Guacamole Burger w a side of tots, extra guac, if that's you're thing! Now, to my gripe. For context read the latest 1-star for this establishment. I wish you could comment on other reviews otherwise I would be making this a separate post. So I too happen to be a Sounders fan and went to Sluggers this last Saturday night May 27 to grab a bite n watch the Sounders Red Bulls game. I was in line to close my tab behind some guy w a friend next to him. I noticed he was trying to pay for his ~$30 something meal w a $100 bill. The brunette bartender noticed she was out of $20s & said she'd have to be gone for a few mins to snag some bills from the back that she didn't have in her till. She literally asked him if it would be easier for him to use a card or if he minded waiting a few minutes. He got offended at the inconvenience of either & started arguing w the bartender bc he didn't like that she gave him a choice of what would be more helpful to him? It made no sense to me. The customer was not a people person and the bartender was trying her best. So I come on this site to review Sluggers well & I see a review from the guy who I'm like 99% sure I was standing behind based on the wild review he left. Chuck, I have to say you can't read the room at all to save your life & it sounds like you enjoy making up stories about customer service staff to make you feel better about yourself online which is sad. I guess you couldn't put together that Bartender 1 was having a rough time during a busy evening night because green crop top Bartender 2 was s***faced and useless. I saw you tip one whole dollar in cash to the bartender that was keeping the place running that night and I think you're an a*hole. That is all. Sluggers is awesome. Chuck is not. Lol read more

I went there shortly after an M's game started, 12 April '25, so the crowd had thinned. The service is great, but simple pints of a lighter beer in a plastic cup for $10 isn't a place I'm going to make my watering hole or even come back to any time soon. It's got Seattle grunge going still for sure. The layout is a long bar and tables opposite, all in a long hallway or alley, if you will, type of setting, and it works. I didn't check out the bathrooms so no report there. read more

Sluggers Seattle - two men sitting at a bar - Sports Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Went to sluggers for the first time before the sounders game. The service was great and accommodating since we had a fairly large party and was constantly in the walkway. We had their tots and beer. The tots were super crunchy and well tasted like what tots taste like but it was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The beer selection was great. We'll definitely be back if we're ever in the area! read more

Best, friendliest customer service in Seattle, as far as I can tell. I have been to a lot of cities, and Seattle overcharges for everything and under-delivers at every turn. This is really the only place that felt like they appreciated my business and made me and my wife feel like we were not bothering them by coming in for a drink and a bite to eat. If you are going to be close to the ballpark/arena area, please spend some money at Sluggers. I was a server for 10 years of my life, and my expectations are pretty reasonable. When it comes to dining out, a nice greeting vs. a grunt is not too much to ask, is it? Thanks, Sluggers, for being the friendliest place in Seattle to enjoy a beer. read more

Great service for only 2 people working with a full place. Lory is so amazing with a scale the entire time. The Philly cheese steak bomb.

Busy game day, but service was amazing. Being 4 people ordering drinks and wanting to split entrées. I cannot be more happy with how they handled the bill!! Also the bartender realized that we didn't seem to be happy with our bloody Mary's, very mild. He offered to replace them. You don't often see that in the sports bar where they want turnover. This has been our place for years and will continue to be our go to many more years. read more
