Great place to gather! Family friendly, dog friendly, easy to make reservations! Hosted my dog's 11th birthday party here!

Beautiful space with lots of great options. Great place for large groups or after work happy hour. Really liked the open space and bright sunshine from the windows. read more

Liked the overall feel/environment of this place. Like that they have board games for you to play. Beer was great and they have a good selection. The only downfall of this place is the lack of food. Would easily be 5/5 if they had food available. read more

Wanted to try this brewery out after finding it on Yelp! Plenty of beers on tap as well as root beer. I believe there were a few options that were non-alcoholic as well. There is a food truck out front (check their online menu) as well as a dumpling/noodle food truck that's always there I believe. There were plenty of seats and definitely is a dog friendly place! read more

Stoup Brewing - Capitol Hill - Drinks (IPA, root beer on tap) - Brewpubs Near Me - Seattle, Washington

It is a laid-back brewery with multiple seating areas and gaming tables/stations. Board games available, open layout with gender neutral bathroom area. You have urinals, toilet designated spaces, and a large sink. We arrived around 8 pm on a Sunday, so we didn't get the opportunity to catch a food truck. You are allowed to bring in outside food or have something delivered. It's also family-friendly, so kids are welcome. There is a reserved area to host private events/parties. Check out their website for more information. read more

They were open today, 24 December. That is two stars right there. Between friends catching up before they head out for a few weeks, and those who either don't celebrate Christmas or have little family, it was nice to sit, mingle and enjoy a beer and the po'boy truck outside. Thank you, Stoup for being open! This spacious brewery has plenty of beer hall style seating. I enjoyed a delicious porter. It was full bodied and tasty. My husband's non alcoholic raspberry Italian soda was the real winner! It was the best I've ever tasted. Outside food is welcomed, no kitchen here. There are games, for those who are interested. Music also plays overhead. Lots of space and grace to hang out here. This is just what Cap Hill kisses First Hill needed. It should be on your Saturday hang out must do list! See website for more details. Parking on street. read more

Good beer hall! They had a few ciders and cocktails as well and I'm pretty sure you can bring your own food in. Great place to catch up with friends and have large groups. You can also try before you get any of the beers. The bartender was friendly and let us sample before we chose. I got the Yonder something and loved it (fruity and not too tart). read more

Went here for a after work meet up. A pizza party if you will but it was fun, unlike at work "Pizza parties" This Stoup as a nice open concept compared to the Ballard location. I kind of like that about here at the Capitol Hill spot as it's easier to move around, get water go for more drinks etc. The tables are large and it was no problem as about 20 people from my company showed up and it looked like various other groups were doing something similar. Beyond this it's Stoup. With an array of IPas. Only thing dropping a star were the pourer's at this location just seemed low energy. The ones in Ballard seem more friendly and eager to pour some pints. read more

Great space with lots of room indoors and outdoors. Lots of different kinds of events going on so always a festive atmosphere when you go. Great for larger groups. read more

One of my favorite plays to stop by on cap hill! They offer sparkling water and hop water on tap for non drinkers! Large space that has lots of seating for groups of all sizes from retirement parties, birthday parties to mah jong matches. Prior to this space being a brewery, this used to be an auto repair shop i think. The outdoor courtyard sort of seating with Large garage door is a nod to that past. Even thought they dont sport any food options of their own, Plenty of Clouds szechuan has their food truck permanently parked in this area to offer food service. However, other food trucks rotate on the street for more food options in addition to the many restaurants in the Pike/Pine corridor. Outside is welcome here! For those of you looking for a place to plug in and get some laptop work done, there are a few scattered power outlets but are hard to come by. Great friendly neighborhood gathering point! read more

I'm still sad about Optimism leaving but it's nice that the property at least stayed occupied as a brewery. Popular space for large gatherings; they do take reservations. They sometimes have small food vendors/trucks in the courtyard area, and they also allow food from outside. The beer is normal Stoup stuff--tends to be IPA heavy, but they have some other options too. read more

Great setup and friendly staff. Beer selection was poor unless you love IPAs. Realize it's the "in thing" and wish the fad would end. Great set up, just wish you had a diverse selection. read more

Came here for a "welcome event" for a wedding, and boy did Stoup Brewing blow it out of the water!! A few different points to make: - The staff and servers were excellent. They moved quickly with a large party, yet still could find that balance of being professional, kind, warm, and helpful! - They allowed us to bring in our own food, woo-hoo! - The options for drinks for this event was absolutely wonderful; of course I'm not sure how the hosts chose it/how much they paid, but we had an open bar and could get anything on tap - an awesome option for those who may want to host something here - The space they reserved for us was gorgeous! Although I don't live in Seattle, I'd be happy to return to this venue whenever I'm in town. Definitely stop by and check this place out!!! read more

Really chill place with your typical walk up counter. A lot of seating available and a kids play area. A few of my beers tasted like just beer and not as strongly the flavor profile listed. Still enjoyed our time and my drink. read more

What a cool place to hang out. Massive brewery with lots of options. They are nice to let you take food from outside. And they are kid friendly - they actually have an area designated for the kids which is awesome! Bathrooms and clean and staff is friendly. We ended up ordering food from the yummy tummy Thai food truck outside and it was delish! Great place for group hangouts. Yes it does get loud though. read more

Came here to meet up with a few friends and grab some drinks. The one thing we heard about this place before coming was that you can bring your own food so we stop by to grab some burgers and fries next-door before coming in. We were planning to grab food from the chicken truck out front but when we got there, they were sold out so I was a bit unfortunate because we were really looking forward to it. But AnyWho, we got in line and all ordered our drinks and were luckily able to find a table for our big group. It was a good time and the ambience is really nice. There's a lot of big groups so also something to know as well. read more

great!!! the food was decent but i all the pride flags made me so happy it was so nice to see my flags hung up and not just one progress flag :] it was really chill and the server, somebody with bleached hair and shiney nail polish, was really nice read more

I was shocked, I drove there just to buy their summer beer. I Parked and ran to the brewery. I bought 8 beers and the total was $39.72 for cans to go. So LAME! Most breweries the beer is cheaper than a grocery store, not this place, the beer cans to go cost more. I will never go back. read more

So glad to see Stoup Brewing get a location in Capitol Hill! I usually could only go to their taproom in Ballard. This location is where Optimism Brewing used to be. I have paid two different visits here before sitting down and writing a review. I knew the beer would be good so no question there prior to the visits. Out of the two outings I have had three different beers of theirs here. Going off of those two outings here I tended to like the dark beers better. The three beers I had was the Cervecita Mexican Lager. Probably not my most favorite of this type of lager but J am very picky with Mexican Lagers. Flavor highlights with this beer were a breadiness, and crispness. The Export Stout was another beer I had and this one I really liked. Nice and dark the flavor features with this stout is coffee, a roasty flavor and a well balanced sweetness. On the other visit I had the Robust Porter. Again similar flavor features as the stout with coffee and roastiness but also rich and a perfect beer to have had on the rainy day that we were out and about! On one of those visits I had to buy a Misfits inspired hop t shirt which I was thrilled to get from the brewery! It's all about the swag! read more

It was exciting that they carried a "sour" - not most places do and it's my preferred drink. Low stars was for super rude service from not just one worker but both workers serving- sorry we came in to spend money...jeez.. read more

This brewery is now on my list of FAVS Breweries. With an area for kids to play and board games, the setting is perfect IDEAL place to chill, have a beer, bring your own food and play games. LOVED the beer - it was light, crisp, and strong. Even after two beers you will not feel bloated. read more

Attended a happy hour event here as part of a conference I attended. Ordered the stout after sampling the porter and stout, and LOVED it! The space has plenty of space to spread out! There are A LOT of IPAs on the menu, so if that isn't your thing there won't be a ton of other options. read more

Really cool vibe inside. It's huge and fits whatever you're looking for. There are lots of tables that were hosting trivia on one end, a work party on the other end, and plenty of other seats for this that's don't want to do any of those events. Beer is great and there's always a good food truck outside. read more

Optimism is now Stoup Capitol Hill. Really cool large open area. There was a seemingly endless option of seating on the ground floor and mezzanine too. There were board games, long tables for drinking games, and cool view of the brewery equipment. There was a huge selection of IPAs on tap (which are my favorite!) My favorite being the OverHOPensation IPA. read more

Spacious brewery in Capitol Hill. There is also an outdoor spot which is enclosed with 2 food carts. Dog friendly.

Huge place! Across from Chipotle and you can bring in any food you want. It's a great place to get out of the rain and have fun conversations with friends. Plenty of places to sit and many many many different beers to try. There must have been over 20 different beers on tap. Probably more. And the wonderful beertender stayed patient and friendly even after my 5th sample. I tried the Please and Thank You beer. I also tried a really tasty citra. Neither disappointed. Even though I wanted to try them all, I left the poor beertenders alone after my 2 beers and dozens of samples. We decided to go to a Mexican restaurant around the corner and not try the food truck. But I can't wait to come back and try some others. read more

We came here to meet friends (we're from out of town) and brought our four-year-old. What an awesome brewery!! Spacious, kid-friendly, SUCH good beers, great bartenders, clean. Cute puppers as patrons. Nice people all around. I also liked that the families gravitated towards one area - where they have a kids set up (yay) which, I believe, makes everyone happy. A kids section and a non-kids section. Those of us with kiddos aren't bothered by other wild children nearby and we're all in one part, condensed and contained-ish. The food truck which provided chicken sammichs was delicious. I wish we had a Stoup in Columbus! Thanks for the wonderful evening! read more

The beer is drinkable, but why on earth would you have your one regular food truck be a NOODLE truck???!!!!! What in the world is that about? You serve beer!!!! You should have a food truck that serves something a little heavier!!! I swear I don't understand this decision. NOODLES?????!!!!!!!!! Ugh!!! read more

I was happy to hear when Stoup was taking over the old optimism location in Capitol Hill. The location is wonderful - so many seats and so centrally located. The beers here are excellent with so many options. There are beers ranging from lagers to sours to IPAs. I feel like there's like 20 options on tap, so there is something for everyone. It is a standard brewery where you order at the counter and pick your own seat. There are often food trucks outside to get a bite to eat as well. read more

Great variety of drinks, easy to visit, cool people, and great service at the bar! We'll be coming back again! read more

SO... we will travel for good beer. I want to start with that. My husband and I are vacationing and decided to take a Lime scooter to Stoup. My first time on a scooter and I wasn't feeling it but Hubby said it would be worth it. 23 minutes later we were there. We arrived around 1:30pm on Monday, 3/31. Hours online and on the door states it opens at noon. Unfortunately, the doors were locked. Saw someone in there, knocked, no answer. Tried calling, no live answering. I mean, if the hours have changed, update those hours for your patrons. Did something random happen? A car broke down? The power went out? Your dog needed to go to the vet? All good reasons! Just post a sign and we'd understand. read more

I visit breweries for the beer and the beer here and at all Stoup locations is first rate. Cap Hill is a vibrant neighborhood and Stoup taking over after Optimism Brewing closed is pretty cool. I've read some blasting about the tipping change - different owners and different beer and different business practices. If tipping is your beef - don't tip, it's not state law. The beer prices reflect what is current in Seattle. Folks that bitch about beer prices haven't visited NYC lately! I enjoyed the German Pilsner. There are lots of good food offerings in Cap Hill - it's such a vibrant neighborhood. read more

We were here for a private event. Service was friendly and efficient for our party. The party space was comfortable with couches, chairs and small standing tables too for the guests. What blew all of our minds there was the bathroom. A hallway of stalls for both men and women. Each stall private, even if using a urinal. It was just different and interesting! Not mad about it in the slightest. I wasn't super excited about the beer options but they had other options like wine and cider available which was appreciated! read more
