Patio
Diana C.

The drinks were pretty interesting and unique. We had one beer that was a hybrid with a Riesling wine and one that tasted kind of like a creamsicle. The servers were super busy. They were efficient but seemed understaffed. Some of the tables were a bit dirty because they were trying to catch up. There's an inside, covered patio, and outdoor patio to choose from which was nice to have options. It did not appear dog friendly though on the patios.

Great knowledgeable bartender, hoppy IPAs and a good selection. Cute interior with side covered area great for groups (with heat lamps) and an outdoor uncovered area as well. Big windows and decent lighting throughout

Chips and green salsa
Jaynne L.

Came here this past Saturday to hang out with some friends. There was seating inside and the tables were distanced apart. There's also an outdoor area that's partially covered and partially not covered. The food was so good! We had fried cat fish tacos and chips and salsa. The cat fish tacos were a little small and it was topped with purple cabbage, cilantro, and cotija cheese with a side of lime. I was surprised the catfish was in small chunks rather than a bigger filet. It's nothing bad, just different :) The chips and salsa were so good! The chips were light and crunchy with the right amount of salt on it. The red salsa was more mild and the green salsa was SPICY which was more of my jam! The service was great from the food, making sure people are masked when ordering at the bar, beer/wine.

Vienna Lager + covid rules

The tacos here are everything. Strange right? Beer was good. Craft cocktails are seasonal and sounded delicious. Speak easy vibe inside. Great music, aesthetic, service, and they are extra thoughtful towards covid. I loved this spot! But back to the tacos .... best in Seattle so far. The fried catfish was the #1 pick in our group. Must go here, support local, enjoy!

My flight at the bar.

AWARD-WINNING MICROBREWED IPA, PLEASANT, AMICABLE SERVICE. A great variety of beers and some wine from a sister company. I enjoyed chatting with the bartender over my flight of IPAs. They have a minimal menu, and I availed myself of the tuna melt. OK, not the best tuna melt I ever had, but really, you're lucky if a brewery sells food at all! The tuna salad was good, and the cheese was melted, but the tuna salad was cold. I did finish it as I was famished, and it tasted good, but I wish it were hotter. The beer was great, and I got a growler of their basic IPA, which is the award winner, and you can see all the medals it has won hanging over the bar. (See photo). There was not much else to mention except that it was not too busy and was very quiet when I was there. So, great beer, nice variety, pleasant, friendly service, but the food fell a little short, and for those reasons, I am awarding four stars. BTW, if you enjoyed my review or found it useful, funny, or cool, please don't hesitate to click the little button to say so, or better yet, go ahead and friend me. So go on! Press that button, and never miss one of my epic reviews in the Seattle area and beyond. Excelsior!

Saison from Standard's sister brewery - so delicious!
Sandra S.

This is an awesome spot to come to for a beer and during the warmer months they have a nice outdoor area. We ended up ordering the Baetylus saison and it was so good that we ended up buying 3 bottles to take with us. Highly recommend!

Ask the Community - Standard Brewing

The website currently only lists what kind of beer is in the bottles. Anyone have any write-ups for what kind of beer is in the cans?

Not on the website. It’s complicated and relates to how our POS parses the information for reports. Modern problems :/ If you scroll through our Instagram, all of our can releases can be found there with a description, though.

They have a decent kolsch and schwarzbier to complement their IPAs, stouts, porters, and whatnot.

CAGETTE WINE BAR: WHERE CABERNET MEETS CABLE CROSSES…read more Listen, while other wine bars in Madison Valley are busy being pretentious about their French pronouns, Cagette has transformed itself into the Gold's Gym of grape juice. Their sommelier doesn't just wear a tastevin around his neck - he wears it WITH A WEIGHTLIFTING BELT. The wall of vintage Gold's Gym Venice Beach photos mixed with First Growth Bordeaux bottles is nothing short of INSPIRATIONAL. Arnold's famous posed double bicep shot is perfectly positioned between the Châteauneuf-du-Pape and the Barolo section, creating what they call the "Pump & Pour" corner. Their wine flights are served on custom metal trays shaped like weight plates. The "Franco Columbu Collection" of Italian reds arrives on a mini bench press rack, and you have to complete three reps before they'll pour your Brunello. The dedication to the aesthetic is STAGGERING. You haven't lived until you've experienced their "Muscle Beach Merlot Mondays" where the sommelier spots you through a vertical tasting while shouting encouragement like "LIGHTWEIGHT BABY" and "AIN'T NOTHING BUT A PEANUT" between sips. Their wine descriptions include both tasting notes AND the optimal rep range for maximum gains. The "Lou Ferrigno Lounge" area features leather seats made from recycled weightlifting belts, and every wine glass has grip knurling. Their coasters are miniature versions of the original Gold's Gym logo, and they refuse to serve anything less than full-bodied wines because "light wines are for WIMPS." Their "Pumping Iron" wine club (which meets in what they call The Dungeon, a clear homage to the original Gold's basement) requires members to deadlift their wine allocation before taking it home. The sight of someone clean-and-jerking a case of Grand Cru Burgundy is both terrifying and beautiful. Five stars for creating a space where wine snobs and gym bros can finally coexist in perfect harmony. I've witnessed heated debates about both proper squat form AND proper wine storage temperature, often in the same conversation. P.S. Their "No Pain No Pour" policy seems strict, but you haven't lived until you've seen someone do burpees for a better pour of Barolo. P.P.S. The bathroom mirrors are positioned at optimal flexing angles, and the hand soap dispensers are shaped like dumbbells. ATTENTION TO DETAIL. Note: This review was written while watching their sommelier demonstrate proper clean-and-jerk form using a methuselah of champagne as a training weight. Special Addendum: To the customer who complained about the mandatory flex pose before entering the reserve wine room - this is about CULTURE, Karen. Final Thought: Never has there been a more perfect fusion of fine wine and fitness culture. It's like if Joe Weider opened a wine bar and Franco Columbu was the beverage director. Remember: Every wine glass comes with its own "PR" (Personal Record) tracking card, and yes, they do measure your wine lifting form. No kipping allowed on the Bordeaux pulls. Warning: Side effects may include excessive use of phrases like "crushing it," "lightweight baby," and "yeah buddy" while discussing vintage vertical tastings. P.P.P.S. Their new "Swole Somm Certification" program requires both blind tasting skills AND a minimum bench press requirement. As it should.

It was oddly charming since I rarely go to dive bars so felt like this was all a little novel. I ordered a tequila soda and didn't really like it. I didn't specify what kind of tequila, so figure it was just the house stuff and that was why it wasn't to my liking. The guy was cool about it and said he could make me a new drink or add some pineapple juice to give it more flavor. They do not have food, but if you are nice they might give you a cup of cashews from the nut bar. We went for karaoke and it was great vibes. Fun songs, welcoming environment, cool set up. I don't always feel comfortable doing karaoke in public with a bunch of randos but felt good up there singing one of my favorite songs. People were all cheering and having a great time. Def a fun community here.

Don't expect service, they're pretty no-frills so it's get your drink and vibe type of place. I will say other patrons and some staff were much more friendly than I was ready for. This place is definitely run down, a little old, and stinky, but that's what's charming about this little bar, they're not pretentious or try-hards here, despite the area they're in. We were sad to learn that they don't sell any food, just drinks, pool, games, and vibes.

I had been to Communion before and was excited to finally take my husband. The menu had changed up…read morea little since my last time but everything was still really good so no complaints there. It is a small spot (sorta) so you kind of get in where you fit in. We ended up at the bar and honestly it worked out perfectly. Our bartender was friendly, engaging and just made us feel right at home. Another staff member came through at some point and was equally as kind. The service all around was great. Now let me talk about the food because that cabbage had no business being that good. I know that sounds random but it was my favorite thing and I did not see that coming. The mac and cheese was delicious, the fried chicken was really good, and my husband was all about the rice and black eyed peas (surprisingly). I also ordered a non alcoholic drink and even though I cannot remember the name it was really good too. The only minor thing was that one of the items, I think it was the hush puppies or cornbread, came out a little lukewarm. They mentioned it can be hard to keep that particular item hot, and flavor wise it was YUM so it was not a dealbreaker. Everything else comes out fresh as it's cooked so just know timing can vary by dish. It did get crowded toward the end and they politely let us know people were waiting outside. They handled it with so much grace it did not feel uncomfortable at all. I will definitely be back. Already curious about what will be on the menu next time.

This was hands down my favorite meal of my weekend trip. I found this spot through TikTok, and it…read morecame highly recommended. We didn't have a reservation, but after about a 10-minute wait, we were lucky enough to snag two seats at the bar. From the moment we walked in, the vibe felt warm, welcoming, and genuinely hospitable. The seating seems intentionally designed to bring people together, and you could see it in the mix of large groups, couples, and even solo diners. Like the name, it had a "communal" energy that made the space feel alive and intimate. The hostess, bartenders, and our waitress were all phenomenal. They were attentive and easy to talk to. Also, the playlist was good. It really added to the overall experience. We started with the sweet potato hoe cakes, and they were absolutely amazing. I loved the texture. They were soft, pillowy, and balanced. They weren't too sweet, even with the honey butter. I wish I'd ordered more to go because I haven't stopped thinking about them. I'll have to try recreating them at home. For my entree, I ordered the stuffed trout, and this is where things really took off. It's a whole fried trout stuffed with a seafood dressing (shrimp, catfish and oysters), and it immediately caught my eye on the menu. I'm not used to eating whole fish, and I don't think I'd even had trout before, but this dish was mouthwateringly good. The fish was crispy, hot, and perfectly seasoned. The béarnaise sauce really set it off. There were so many layers of flavor and texture, and everything just worked together perfectly. On top of that, the presentation was stunning. I posted it on my Instagram story and immediately had people asking where my food was as from. This meal was very memorable. I have zero notes. The ambiance, food, music, and service were all top-tier. Side note: There is a 5% "communal" surcharge added to every bill. The money is used to support staff benefits, the support staff, and the line cooks. This is separate from the gratuity. This surcharge is clearly explained on the menu, and I really love and appreciate the transparency and that they care about the employees. But yeah. Super good. We love a good meal and we damn near left there skipping.
