Been coming here for years... hell even got married at the round table by the window. The food (tavern burger is fire), the energy, the whole vibe...it's all there. This place oozes authentic, original Seattle soul, standing as a welcome sanctuary against the soulless, corporate establishments taking over downtown. Thanks for existing. read more

Georgetown carnival is today, and I thought I would frequent of the local businesses. I brought in about one iced tea that I had bought somewhere else. And the barmaid said You can't drink that here Started explaining the rules and regulations about not being able to bring anything into an open bar.I respect that she said you could put it in your bag in a more aggressive tone than I appreciated, but I did it anyway.I ordered, and then I said, can I get a beer? Her response was.I don't really want to, but yes, my patience at that point had run to its end, and I said, Look, we got off on the wrong foot and I don't want this to go on So we had a great day, and I left. There's a limit to just how much snark I will take before it becomes uncomfortable. I walked a couple of doors down to my favorite Mexican cantina and had a great lunch with great service. At the bar read more

One 40 year friendship. One salmon burger, one BLT, one order of tater tot's (with cheese sauce!). A Spicy Pineapple Shrub and soda. Fantastic service and ample time to catch up on our lives. Shout out to Star Brass Lounge for being the best place for lunch and friendship. read more

I have visited this bar a few times and it always has a cool vibe, but overall, I am not a big fan. First the food is just ok. The burger looks delicious but consistently lacks flavor. However, the tater tots are excellent. While I have encountered a couple of great bartenders, my last visit was marred by staff who appeared extremely negative and angry. One cook, carrying something hot, unexpectedly came through a quiet corner in the back and started yelling at patrons to move, despite no prior traffic in that area for over two hours that we were sitting there. It would have been more considerate to ensure the path was clear before proceeding, as this incident unnecessarily put people in danger and caused undue stress as we were getting up and ready to leave. read more

This used to be one of my favorite places to go but it just isn't the same since they killed off the beet sandwich. That sandwich made it a great place for vegetarians--not just making a fake meat version of a meat thing but a legit good thing that happened to be vegetarian. Now the options for vegetarians are meh at best unless you are happy with sides. Bring back the beet sandwich! read more

Food was average atmosphere is dark. If you wanted to go someplace and hide for a few hours great place to do that service was OK. Food was eat edible, like bar food. read more

Great dive bar. Excellent cocktails and tavern burger was superb. Half order of fries are plenty and the music is very entertaining.

Burger, fries, and tots were absolutely spot on. The bar is a great vibe, but a bit small on the inside. The outdoor patio has a lot of seating and multiple TVs which is a rarity in the greater Seattle area. Service was quick and polite - will be back again soon!! read more

If you're looking for a dive bar, you've arrived! They have a little bit of everything you could be looking for. Outdoor patio with fire pits, happy hour, solid food, dive bar vibes, TVs with the essentials and much more. We live close by so we often order out their tavern burgers and fries, their fries order is a huge portion. The bartenders are attentive and fun. No frills, all the fun and no pressure, love this spot read more

This tavern burger is one of the best in town, and for $7! Also get the tots with cheese sauce-delish! Love the ambience here. It's dark with a 70's vibe. Comfortable, like a neighborhood bar. We stop in every time we're in Georgetown. read more

I only had a chance to have a drink but I love the low key vibe with bit of seedy pub ish feel. Outdoor has a little fire pit you cam sit around. I had a glass of cava and it was decent price. I would def come back again! Oh and it has a parking.... it makes a huge difference in this current seattle status read more

I really enjoy this place. the ambiance and decor are perfect for this part of the city and simply because of the age of this establishment. There are always quite a few people there no matter what time I go which is mostly for lunch or happy hour. They have definitely established a regular crowd over the many years. My favorite is the Tavern Burger. Substantial and only $7! and they have shoestring fries which are my favorite. Great service and will keep going back. read more

We went to Star Brass on Sunday afternoon to get together with a group of about 8 others for drinks and lunch. Such a fun spot! The staff was so friendly and accommodating! They were on top of the orders, drinks, requests, fire pits. Everything! We really appreciated it all. They have great bar food! I ended up with fish and chips - definitely the best I've had here in the seattle area. The batter was nice and crispy, while the fish was fresh. I loved the shoe string fries as well! We also ordered some tots and onion rings for the table. The small size of both were perfect for about 4 people. Both apps were hits and we enjoyed them with allll the dipping sauces! We'll totally be returning to Star Brass! Such a fantastic option in the Georgetown area. read more

Great place.. went for dinner but they have a very limited bar menu only. Extremely busy

I've only been during the day or just after work - but I have always found it to be a laid back place to eat and hang out with surprisingly good food. I especially like the Tavern burger, or the double tavern burger - depending on how hungry I am. It's like a fast food burger but perfected - a perfect balance of meat and cheese and bun and not a bunch else. More complex things I have gotten on their menu have also been good. And they always have nice selection of beer and great bar tenders for mixed drinks. I like their big outside area - always plenty of seating. The inside is cozy and warm. read more

Came here on a Wednesday night looking for bars in Georgetown good for groups. They have a large outdoor space but the inside is also much more spacious then I was expecting from pictures. The inside is cozy and the bathrooms are clean. Drinks were good and a great value especially compared to standard Seattle drink prices. For food we got fries (very hot and a large serving, enough for 2-3 people), steak bites, the house salad, and wings and were very happy with all of the above. Definitely want to try the $7 burger next time I come in! Service was great, all staff we interacted with were friendly and made the experience very positive. read more

Good bar with a good burger and fries. Full bar and resteraunt with a patio in George town. NO MINORS

This was a great, semi-random find. I was down in Georgetown for other purposes a few weeks ago when I walked by and saw their sandwich board sign promising really cold beer. Right up my alley! I ended up going here on a weekend right as they opened. Vegetarian options are very, very slim - for the most part you can sub a veggie patty on a burger (no idea what kind of patty), or you can get a veggie Rueben, but I really like Ruebens so I decided to go ahead and give it go...especially for really cold beer! I was basically the first one in for the day, so service was super quick and friendly. I was disappointed that the beer wasn't really cold, but I got to try Jellyfish brewing (which is right down the street) for the first time and that was lovely. The Rueben, from a visual standpoint, left a lot to be desired. It looked really burnt and kinda sad, but they simply used a dark rye that ended up being really good with a perfect amount of toasty. Tavern sauce was also quite good. Just like everywhere else it's mayo mixed with....I don't remember what I thought it was?! Now I kinda want to try it again! From a vegetarian standpoint, this isn't going to be somewhere I frequent, but it has a pretty nice vibe and it would be great for a mixed group. read more

They must not get good tips because they sure act like they don't. To be honest, this is the kind of customer service I expect from a server who gets paid more than they are worth... be better. The tavern burger was good, but overpriced for its size. Fries are good. Ambiance: dimly lit. Hipster music. The men who work there have beards and wear flannel and the women have mullets; but neither seem like the type that could change a tire; let alone, swing an axe. You look cool... but just aren't cool. Be better. read more

Good food priced right. Great beer choices and big outside eating area that was comfortable and clean. Excellent casual gathering place!

Came here by chance to chat with my girl, while the boys played pool nextdoor. The drinks were great; the alcoholic slushie wasn't too alcoholic and therefore enjoyable but beware of brain freezes, and the other cocktails were equally dangerously delicious. The bartendress was kind enough to share her custom cocktail with us too, and it did not disappoint. read more

Met my daughter here for dinner and very pleased. Service was very good and the burgers are very good. I found out this is owned by Loretta's so that is not surprising. I ordered the Chipotle Steak soup with some tots on the side and it was fantastic. Plan on coming back soon. read more

Pretty cool hang out spot for good food, great vibes and friendly customer service. Buffalo wings were great and the burgers are done perfectly. May look ordinary but the flavor is outstanding. read more

I didn't feel very welcome here. The area outside was cut with random vendors and a quick marriage booth. Loved the horseradish sauce with the onion rings. Amazing burgers. I'd eat here again. Onion rings are perfectly crispy. read more

The bar you need and the bar you want. It's got fantastic no fuss food. It's got the beer and drinks you're looking for. The patio is huge if you get good weather sit there. The inside has lots of space as well. The service was quick and friendly. Come in, grab a drink and enjoy. read more

I just love the side of the wall seating where you can sink into the cushion and have your back to the wall. Must be genetic from my Texas linage as this really feels like a western saloon. I like the inside, but they have an outside seating too. The vibe is chilled during the day hours where you can come and settle in, drink a few and watch some sports on the televisions. There's gobs of comfort food to be had, but I ended up having their $5 burger and fries. Then, immediately realize I need another $5 burger as one isn't enough for me. The meat is hand made patty grilled to perfection on a griddle with a toasted bun. You really can't get a better simple burger then what's had at SBWL. I've dropped by a few evenings and this place becomes more of a honky-tonk atmosphere where you can do some serious drinking as they have a full bar and some great drinks. This is definitely a great place to hang out in Georgetown and if your coming to this area, you should put it on your list to stop by. read more

Star Brass Works Lounge is a little dive-y, but a pretty relax place to get a drink and cheap happy hour food. It is right next to the mobile park vintage shopping area, so it's in a nice area. The service was pretty great! The woman there was very nice and accommodating. My friend just ordered drinks and went back to her seat, while my other friend and I ordered food too. She came back to check if out our friend wanted food and thought she forget her order! That was pretty nice of her. I ordered the pretzel plate and I felt a tiny bit fancy in this dive-y bar. The Pretzel was nice and warm, and not oily, compared to other pretzels I had. The cheese sauce could use a little work, it was kind of liquid like and needed more impact of flavor, but overall not a back plate. They have this amazing happy hour deal! $6-7 beer/micro and you get a hamburger! It's a pretty basic hamburger, but it's a pretty awesome deal. read more

Jules Maes and 9 lb hammer don't have anything on star brass. Kelsey is vibes, demure, mindful. Also pretty cute

Star Brass Works Lounge has lots of cheap beer and food options! I came here with my sports team after playing a game on a weekday night and there was tons of seating options available. I got a burger ($7) and a sour beer ($7). The burger was pretty average and sort of small, as expected for being so cheap. The sour beer was good also. They definitely messed up a few orders at our table but we had a big group. Overall, a pretty average bar/lounge in the middle of Georgetown. I wouldn't seek out the place but prices are affordable and has decent vibes. read more

Had a great night with friends: Good Atmosphere Friendly staff Food was really good Drinks were also really good Prices were fair Will be returning read more

Brittany the bartender literally wanted me to end my call before she was even willing to take my order. I even put my phone down and my call on hold and she still wouldn't take it. Went next door instead. Much friendlier environment. The owner of this company should rethink staffing ppl like her who r on more of a power ego trip than managing professionalism and business transactions. Bartending is directly related to customer service and that requires interpersonal communication skills. Brittany definitely lacked that. read more

I love Star Brass for many reasons. The service is always quick and friendly, they have a great happy hour, and a good mix of drinks. Having a severe sensitivity to light, I REALLY appreciate that it is quite dark inside but also has a huge outdoor patio. I've tried a big portion of the food menu, and everything I've had has been delicious and reasonably priced. Parking can be a bit of a challenge as the paid lot fills up quickly, and street parking is hit or miss. read more

As always this place is amazing. Updating with a new photo. The outdoor seating has also been expanded with a patio cover and heaters. Sadly the heaters were all off and no propane but it was all great otherwise. Service is amazing and food and drinks are fast and delicious. read more

Great little spot in Seattle away from the Seattle of Seattle. Has a nice down to earth feel. It had quite a few regulars and people of all different ages. read more

Awesome staff, burgers, and drinks. Add the great patio and this has become by default after work spot. I typically get the double tavern burger, tots with cheese and one of their rotating slushy drinks. I'm usually wary of slushy drinks being way too sweet but that is definitely not the case here. Highly recommend going here with groups as well on a nice afternoon as it's generally not too crowded and you can find a table outside with a good deal of nearby parking. One downside is as a parent and this being a bar, we can't bring our kids with us but that's more a Washington State thing. read more

My fiance brought home burgers from this place once months ago and I remembered it was so good so we decided to go back to eat outside on their patio. They have a really nice outdoor space where you can always bring your puppy if you want! We came with friends and ordered a few appetizers to share along with the Tavern burgers - fries, onion rings and buffalo wings. I was sad they were out of the tater tots! The Tavern burger was good, but smaller than I remembered and for $7 each, I would have expected more. But it was still overall a good burger. Inside of the restaurant was more like a bar and very dim with some music. Nice chill place to go with friends. read more

At first, the menu seemed affordable. Yay. But when the food arrived, it turned out to be false - portions were small. Service and ambiance was OK. read more

This spot was on the docket to come by during a Saturday night b-day celebration. We hit up a few other bars beforehand but birthday girl decided to come here before ending up at Kittens Cabaret. This place is chill, great dark interior, immediate greetings from bartender as our group walked in, luckily for the 7 of us we got a good spot to sit at. We already ate so we weren't hungry but quite thirsty. I especially like that being in Georgetown, they have local Georgetown Brewing on tap. Love me a "Johnny Utah"!!! (especially from Point Break). I don't need to know about the faint notes, hints of this, nose of this, color of ale, it's finish, blah blah blah.... I am not a beer snob whatsoever, as long as it taste good, I'm with it. Anyways, we all had a good time getting a few rounds in and relaxing etc. Wasn't ridiculously crowded so it was easy to hit up the restroom when you break the seal. Good sized room up front with tables and a backroom with some tables and a shuffle board to play. Staff was super friendly, quick on getting us more rounds, and easy to chat with when coming by. Glad to have come by to hang, definitely one of the spots to hit up when in Georgetown. read more
