This was my first experience with a "do it yourself" tasting room. If you haven't seen one before, you provide them your credit card first to open a tab and they notice you a plastic card like a hotel key that you use to serve yourself how much and whatever kinds of beverages they have on tap. There is a wall of glasses in different sizes to suit your needs and over 50 beers, ciders, ales, kombuchas. Etc. on tap to explore at your own pace! They didn't have any food to purchase but they were making fresh popcorn available to munch and cleanse your palette for feee. We used the small tasting glasses to try a variety of their offerings and look forward to coming back for more! They have TV's so you can watch the game and the day we were there there was a painting class going on that had the whole room packed. So, if you're looking for a low key way to host a group where alcohol is available they are clearly a great option! Give them a try! read more

Tapster Seattle - Wine, hard kombucha, cider - Beer Bar Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I love these types of self-serve drink places because you get to try a variety of drinks! From beers, wines, and even alcoholic and non-alcoholic kombuchas -- there's something for everyone here. I'm first and foremost a kombucha girly, so I tried a few of them before getting a full glass of what I really liked. I also had a glass of a dark beer that I really liked with lots of notes of chocolate and coffee. They also had an alcoholic lemonade that was super dangerous at like 12% and super sweet. The food selection is lacking, but we did order a pretzel that come with a yummy and spicy cheese sauce. The ambiance is really chill, clean, and has a cool swing set. When we were Yelping where we should go for a light bite and some drinks-- all the other spots around us weren't giving us the vibe that Tapster did. Service was great, it was my first time so they explained how the cards work and encouraged us to try different things and how all of the taps were organized. Don't forget to leave you drink card in the box before you leave! read more

I've been to a few self serve places like this, but never one with the ambiance and the selection that Tapster has to offer. It's a bright space that feels friendly and welcoming from the minute you walk in, plus who can't help but smile at people sitting in swings with full drinks. Tapster makes it easy, you get a card attached to your credit card, grab your preferred drinking glass, and go to town. They had several cider options, including a really unique key lime pie cider that was perfect for the 80° day. Add in friends, good music, and for us, a view of the activities on the lakeside? Perfect way to kick off the afternoon. read more

Tapster Seattle - Beer Bar Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Located in the busy area of SLU (South Lake Union) parking can always be a bit of a challenge. There's a few street parking and parking at a paid lot at The Center for Wooden Boats, if you're lucky. A few friends and I came here on a Saturday early afternoon. Once we got there, we noticed there was a Paint n Sip event going on. Walking in, we noticed there was still a few seatings and tables off to the side near the swings. If you don't already know, Tapster is a bar where you pour your own drinks! You walk in, put your card on hold and staff will give you a linked card to charge your credit card with the price per ounce that you pour. Thought this was a cool and fun idea. You pour as much and as little as you'd like. Ambiance was a bit loud because of the Paint n Sip event. So chatting with friends was a bit difficult, because we had to compete with the 20 some people and mc painting instructor. I did like the decor of Tapster. The swing sets to wooden blocks and sports team flag. Loved it all! It was nice that they had games you can play with while there like jenga and ring toss. As for the drinks, I did find a favorite in the Nitro Peanut Butter Milk Stout. Tried to be adventurous and try other taps, but I found some seemed a bit flat in taste. Upon leaving, to close out your card, you drop off your Tapster card in one of the three tip boxes (18/20/22%). Although we didn't know this at the time, but you could close it at the register as well and opt to tip a different amount. Overall, the experience was good. Hoping next time the taps won't be flat like they were. read more

I visited Tapster on a Friday afternoon with colleagues, drawn in by its chic and youthful vibe. Drinks: With over 20 taps offering wine, beer, Kombucha, and hard seltzer, Tapster's self-serve concept allows you pour based on preference. Opening a tab at the bar grants access to a pink card for scanning, allowing for exploration of various tasters before committing. Pricing: Drinks are priced by the ounce, averaging around $+/-0.50 per ounce (wine options are pricier), translating to at least $10 for a pint--steeper than your typical brewery or bar. Customer Service: The staff were friendly and patiently explained the process. Overall, Tapster offers a fun experience, but its pricing might deter regular visits. read more

This isn't the first time I've tried a place like this where it is a "pay as you pour" model. Not a bad idea, but seems more of a novelty to me, a different way to try several different drinks or mix and match at your leisure. How it works is fairly simple, your payment is synced with a card they give you. You place it in the slot over the tap levels and pour as much of a drink you want and be charged by the ounce. The value by ounce ranges from so you may or may not be getting a good deal. I got full pour IPA and sampled a couple others by a couple ounces or so which came to about $12 after closing the tab which was about right. Again, I think it's more novelty and selection here as I' could just as easily go to a brewery and sample selections without paying and when I'm ready get the pint(s) I want. I think the aim is for a younger crowd here given the aesthetic as well as the crowd in here. read more

Drinks: 5/5 | Service: 4/5 | Experience: 4.5/5 This bar is a great way to socialize with friends or for a happy hour as there are many tables and many that were longer as well. Your credit card gets swiped at the beginning and then you are handed another card that will you need to use to fill up / self-serve drinks. There's a wide variety of ciders / beers / kombucha, even and different-sized cups. You pay by the ounce, which I think is very worth it. read more

Tapster Seattle - Beer Bar Near Me - Seattle, Washington

My coworkers and I came to Tapster for their Monday night trivia, and we had a great time at this bar we all were trying for the first time! They have a really cool concept where you get to pour your own drinks. You go up to the cashier, give them your card and ID, and they hand back to you your card and ID, along with a specific card to keep track of your drinks. You then choose your drinking vessel, and help yourself! You can see the prices of everything while you're pouring, and you also have a chance to try a variety of things! I'm not a huge beer drinker, but they had a variety of ciders, seltzers, and kombuchas. I tried two types of cider and both were great. They even had a seasonal chaider which was my favorite. I didn't try any of the food but definitely may in the future. The trivia was also great! They use a Sporcle system, so someone on the team needs to have their phone out at all times. The questions were harder than expected, but it was still a fun time! They have two games every night, but my group left after game 1, at 8 PM as we had a long day at work. But I'll definitely be back, just to visit the bar! read more

This bar is a very creative concept. I've never seen a self serve bar before. This is definitely clever. The vibes are good, as is the customer service. The decor is bright & upbeat. The swings are a cute touch. Super fun! I'm not a huge beer drinker, so I had a couple of glasses of Rosé when I came here. I wish they would've had more wine options. I'd come back if I was in town. read more

A Coworker recommended this bar and I'm glad we made the trip. It's located in Google Valley across the street from Art Marble. Tapster is unique in the sense that you check-in and a pay for a card similar to that of a hotel. That grants you access to all the dispensers of wine and beer. Depending on how much you pour is what you will pay when you end your tab. Very unique. Setup of inside the bar is pretty office "break out room", with flares of fun! It's a nice feel based on where it's located so I get the style. Staff is friendly and this is the 1st place in Seattle since visiting for work that played a Hip Hop song. Appreciative of being in new areas but I will say after visiting Seattle I always wonder where to go to hear some Hip Hop. I'd visit again for sure for the music and the unique way of drinking. read more

Tapster Seattle - Beer Bar Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I've been to Tapster on a few occasions so far and I have enjoyed tasting different beers and ciders. There are various seating areas inside where a group can gather. Inside there are swing seats and a swing table, long communal tables in the middle, smaller tables on the sides, and a large wooden set of stadium benches. Outside there are a few adirondack chairs and high bar stools. For beverage offerings there are many beers, a few ciders, a few wines, and a couple of kombucha options. Upon arrival you go to the register and hand over your credit card in exchange for a 'tap card' that is used to keep track of your tap pours. On the side wall there are pint classes and smaller tasting glasses (maybe 3 or 4 ounces?). However they don't have any flight carriers so that makes it a bit more challenging to try multiple options at the same time. The taps on the wall describe each beverage and the cost per ounce. The liquid pours out quickly and the beers tend to pour foamy after a bit so it can take awhile to get a glass full. It's also really easy to forget your card in the tap slots and many people do so. The tap card is attached to your credit card so be very careful to avoid accidental misuse by another patron. It can get quite busy on some days with people from nearby offices stopping by after work. Tapster isn't set up for true beer connoisseurs to talk to bartenders and learn about the selections. It's more of a serve yourself and chat with friends location, and that works for most. This location doesn't have a kitchen but there is a popcorn machine and some bagged chips for purchase. Patrons are allowed to bring in outside food too. read more

Tapster Seattle - Nice outdoor patio space - Beer Bar Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Complaining about the service at Tapster Seattle is pointless, because there really is no service. It's essentially self-serve beer and pay at the register once you have had your fill. So, it was a beautiful day in Seattle today, and I wanted to drink a beer in the sun somewhere. I went to South Lake Union and was pleased but surprised to find that, with all the brewery and restaurants closing in downtown, Tapster was still in business. I drank a beer and soaked in the sun on the outside patio. I finished my beer and went inside to select my next beer, and discovered that my choice was dry - the keg was blown, or empty. I went to the register, and nobody was attending the station. I looked around the bar looking for someone that might work there, but didn't get a response. So, I walked behind the register a couple steps into the back. I saw a couple girls standing there chatting, and waved at them. Hi! I said, just wanted to let you know that the beer tap I selected is dry. Well, she proceeded to let me know that I had no right to step behind the register...and it was downhill from there. What the fuck is wrong with people today? I wasn't threatening. I didn't raid the register. I just wanted to get someone's attention. And I was asked to leave the premises. I will never step foot into a Tapster, anywhere in the country, again. Before posting this review, which I have never done before, I was prompted to select a rating star. Unfortunately, no star was not an option. read more

Really great spot to try all the beers/ciders you want! I'm not a huge beer guy so this works out great for me. The integrated tech to track how many ounces you pour for yourself is pretty cool. The interior is bright, clean, and basic. There's a corner with nice rope swing chairs that I'd like to try someday. Would definitely come back. read more

A self serving wine and beer place in the heart of SLU, literally below Google office! There are more than 50 taps where one can choose what they like- non alcoholic drinks like Kombucha and ciders are available as well. It's BYOB- so you can go wild! You get to Tapster, they check your ID and take a card for the tab. Once you get the Tapster card activated, all you have to do is go to the tap which you like, tap with the 'Tapster card' and get your drink. It gets calculated in Oz and let's you know the price. Lots of seating and cute swings as well. Definitely a place with friends as it gets loud with talking and music. read more

Liked the concept, pay per ounce. You can try a lot of different options and see what you like. However, in my opinion none of them were good or amazing. The lager which I somewhat liked was just average. I wished they had some good and refreshing beer. Might not go again. Note: On an average, it will cost $10 per glass (during Happy Hour) read more

Came here just by chance while waiting for a dinner reservation. Such a fun concept!!!! I'm not the type of person who can finish a full beer so getting to try small amounts of ciders, sours, and cocktails was such a vibe. Genuinely liked everything we tried. Staff was super friendly and it smells like popcorn. Will be back again :) read more

This place features over 50 different types of drinks on the tap - wine, IPA, sours, ciders, imported beers, seltzers, other beers, kombucha, soda, and more! You get to pour as much or as little as you want and try a variety of different drinks. The smallest reasonable pour is 0.6oz, based on my experience with just trying out almost everything in this place. You get started with a card, $10 minimum spend, and you grab a cup. Then, you place your card in the indicated slot and pour the amount you want. You can wash your cup at the drain area before you try other drinks. The prices per ounce vary from $0.15 for soda to $1.50+ for some wine / Delirium Red, mostly in the range of $0.50-$0.80 per ounce for IPAs, etc. There are tables with swings which were pretty neat, though you cannot do actual swinging as there is not enough space; this applies for the swings with the wall backdrop "today is the day!" which is pretty Instagrammable. It is neat that they stop you from pouring too much at certain spend intervals - this can ensure you do not accidentally over pour, and also doubles up as a way to make sure they do not over-serve you. However, I can see that it can get annoying for people as you have to go to the cashier to unlock it. In the end, you checkout with the cashier to pay your desired tip, or you can express checkout to pay 18%, 20%, or 25% and they will tack on that amount as tip at the end. Overall, I really love this place, as I always embrace variety. The bonus is that this place is also pretty and there are many good selections of drinks on the tap here. It can get a bit pricey if you are not careful, but you are also paying the premium to try a variety of drinks. I probably have expensive tastes but I really really love the Delirium Red - a little tangy but also fruity for beer. So while I tried most of the drinks here, I got a lot of the Delirium Red. The tab ended up to be around $77 before tax and tip (but fortunately it was on company dime as I went for company happy hour) read more

Love the entire idea of Tapster - just wasn't too fond of the selection. There's definitely a variety of drinks available, just couldn't find the one that clicked with me. Alongside the main alcoholic drinks, there are 4 categories of non-alcoholic beverages with three options each. For example, cold-brew may be one category and there would be three types to choose from. When I first came when Tapster first opened, I believe you paid for a card with funds to use. Now, it's revamped for the better. You get a card and then it tracks the volume you pour out. At the end, you close your tab to pay. If you forget, you'll be charged for your drinks alongside a $10 fee for loss of the card. What I love most is that Tapster cuts off service for your card at a certain point and requires you to check in with the register. It's really cool as it helps regulate somewhat, although it's not perfect because we all have different tolerances. I just think the idea and awareness was excellent and while it seems like something obvious to incorporate, most places wouldn't think about it (as it feels less important than other design decisions). read more

I love the concept..being your own bartender & pouring your own alcohol! :) For someone who really doesn't like the taste of beer & strong alcohol in general, I really liked that I had the option to pour myself just a small amount of alcohol to taste, instead of having to buy a full size drink that I may not like. So this is how Tapster works: ~1st go to the front counter to give the cashier your cc & you will then be given a Tapster card to use that is linked to your cc. You will not be charged at this time. It's basically like opening a bar tab. ~You then will grab a clean glass from the wall that has a variety of different sizes & shapes to choose from. Next , put your Tapster card in the slot of the alcohol you want to try out & you then just pull down the lever to pour your drink. Each of the drink options do show the price of that particular drink & just depending on how much you pour yourself, is how much is then added to your Tapster drink card. So sorry if I'm not explaining this w/ the best clarity but let me blame it on my "drinking & Yelping" at the same time! ;)) So back to my kinda confusing review ;)).. there were some drinks that I would pour myself that were only $1-$3 at most because I just wanted to taste it & didn't want a full glass, in case I didn't like it. Other times, I would pour myself a full glass of a beverage that cost about $4-$5. There are many drink options to choose from (white & red wines, sour, IPAs, beer, ect) & for my husband, who loves trying out different types of beers/alcoholic drinks, he really enjoyed himself at Tapster & we did go a few times to hang out while we were in Seattle on vacation. The decor is super cute & perfect for taking those IG pics, complete w/ swings hanging from the ceiling, pink neon signs, & plenty of natural wood seating BUT I do have to gives a heads up to all my grown folk that the demographic of the Tapster regulars is made up of 20-somethings so basically my hubby & I, were about 20 years toooo old!! We have twins who are 21 yrs old, so needless to say we didn't hang out very long at Tapster both times that we went because it felt like we were drinking w/ our kids & their young friends! (Insert laughing out loud & rolling on the floor emoji ;)) Lastly, to close out your tab/checkout you had 2 options: 1) Express Checkout by putting your Tapster drink card in one of the 3 locked boxes marked either 18% gratuity, 20% gratuity, or 25% gratuity & depending on which box you dropped it in that additional percentage would be charged to your card plus your total drinking amount. These locked boxes are located by the door as you exit. OR 2) You could go to the cashier & close out. Doing it this way, you get to choose the tip amount you want to give, if any. Hope this info helps! ~Rebecca out read more

Tapster Seattle - 09/02/2021 - Beer Bar Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Tapster definitely has something good going on! Their idea of self pouring is great. Came in on a Saturday night and it was a busy night. There was plenty of seating inside and outside. You provide them with a credit card/debit card to put on file, and they provide you with a card to use for your pours. You first start with selecting your style of glass. Then move on to inserting your card, and pouring your choice of drink. I was able to get some different tastings varying from Hard Kombucha to several seasonal IPA's. Great selection of music and throwbacks hit the cherry on top! Wish I had a local Tapster down here in SoCal! read more

What a fun place! Conveniently located in the South Lake Union area. You are charged a $20 holding fee I believe, to obtain your card to start "tapping." You then go to a wall and select what glass you want and then the tapping and pouring begins! They have several options to ensure that everyone has something for them: beer, wine, ginger beer, seltzer, root beer, CBD seltzer, kombucha, and cold brew coffee. They charge you by the ounce, so take a look around to see your price. Make sure you keep the card in the tap slot even while you pour before removing your card. Pro tip: don't lose your card to avoid getting charged an additional $10. They have TVs and amble amounts of seating indoor and outdoors. They have swings that are a fun spot to click a few pictures during your experience. I think this is a fun spot to visit as a tourist or even for a local. As a local, I'd come here to grab a few drinks before heading out for the evening because this allows everyone in a large group to find something good for themselves. I believe they don't serve any food, but I did see snacks like popcorn and maybe candy bars or something. Keep this in mind to make plans for food before or after visiting. read more

I love the concept - there was a self pour bar in the city that I used to live in so it is great to have one here now. They have probably 30+ beer taps, a third or so of which are IPAs, but they have a nice selection of other options too. I particularly enjoy their rotating sours, which are sometimes difficult to find on tap in Seattle unless you go to a sour-specific brewery. They also have some wine taps and nonalc taps. They have a medium size indoor space, and a decent size patio with heaters and a roof. It gets crowded starting around 6 on weekdays. Overall I think this is a great addition to the neighborhood. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that they have started adding a mysterious 5% before-tax service charge which the don't show you until you get your receipt. We should absolutely pay restaurant/bar workers a fair wage (if that is in fact who the fee goes to - it's not clear what it's for), but be honest about it. Either tell people very clearly when they first get a swipe card that there will be a 5% fee, or just raise the prices on everything 5%. Given that you pay per ounce, most people probably would be fine with an increase from, for example, 80¢/oz to 84¢/oz anyways. To me, the extra couple bucks isn't a big deal, but being sneaky isn't cool. read more

Super chill, fun spot to come to! There's an outside patio and the inside vibe is trendy, fun, and relaxed. How?--- You grab your tapster card at the front register and put a card on file. You pick any drink that your heart desires and if you're like me.. you're going to like not having to drink an entire beer and try it first. -- Pour any amount you like while leaving your card in the slot (I accidentally was tapping the card and didn't notice the slot so you don't have to be silly like me and multitask pouring a drink and tapping at the same time.) Return your card to the register or return buck or else you will be charged a fee. There are 3 return buckets at the back that are labeled "18, 20, 25%" gratuity, but if you would like to just choose your own gratuity-- just return it at the front :) I loved that there were swings inside with good music while the outside patio had a beautiful view of the lake. Selection is worthy of beer lovers, some wine, kombucha, even soda and coffee. I will definitely be back when I'm in town thanks to my brother! read more

Finally made it to Tapster on a recent weeknight. It was busy, but there was plenty of not-terribly-butt-friendly seating to be had. I enjoy the open tasting concept, but I was not blown away by the selection. There wasn't really anything out of the ordinary or hard to find on the menu and I was annoyed that at least three taps were pouring tastebud-abominations like Budweiser (I don't recall if it was actually Bud, but three very similar shit beers.) Decent night out, kind of felt like walking into a college party with one or two 40ish-year old chaperones. read more

Cool spot! Self-serve beer system that allows you to pay for the ounce. But what's awesome is the drag bingo every 5-7 pm on Sunday. The person that does it keeps it entertaining and funny. Add that with the Instagramable swings, you can keep a variety of people entertained! You're not going to be able to fit a huge group but it's a nice cozy spot for a group of 4 friends or less. Also easy ice breaker spot for a date. Prices are roughly $0.50-1.00 per oz which is a pretty good deal to try as many beers as you want. $10 minimum per person btw. Most of the beers are from the PNW and they have ciders too. Definitely recommend! Parking can be a bit tough but there is parking on the street if you're lucky. Also my gf got the final bingo and got 50% off her tab! Yasssss read more

I love the "pour your own drink" concept of Tapster! It's a little harder to pour a beer than perhaps a wine or cider, so I stuck to non-beer drinks. They usually have popcorn but their machine was unfortunately broken. Our group easily got a table on a Saturday night, and though it was busy, it wasn't too loud or cramped. There are games and swings that make this place a bit more unique than your typical brewery! read more

I always appreciate places where you can sample different beers, ciders, and kombucha. It's great because you get to try different things and don't have to commit to a whole drink. I wanted to come here for the swings but they're not as comfortable as I would've thought. They have a $10 minimum which was pretty easy to spend. Every time you pour, it tells you your total spend which is nice. read more

Tapster Seattle - Beer Bar Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is a fun bright place underneath the Microsoft sign near South Lake Union. Very lively atmosphere with swing seats and outdoor seating and a wall full of pour your own wall taps. And if beer is not your fancy, they have ciders and kombucha. I like the concept because I never know what kind of beer I want so being able to try so many, in small portions if you choose, is fun. They do include notes about the beer and you can see the cost as well. The downside might be that every beer drinker I have met loves to talk to bartenders about the beer, and they usually can do a little taste for free at a bar. But this is a new idea that works for me, because I am okay discovering beers on my own. I did find that when I used the small glass, the beer was difficult to pour and foamed quite a bit, so try the larger glasses. You return your pour card in a box depending on what tip you wanted to give the attendants. Great atmosphere, views, and a nice chance to try a lot of beverages without getting plastered. read more

They have a decent drink selection, from beers to ciders to kombucha and cold brew coffee, so there's something for everyone.

We clearly did not leave our little section next to the swing the entire time. All the beers I tried were really good. I like the self pour as I was able to slightly fill up my glasss to 1-2oz and taste all the different offerings. Not a huge cider person but my sister raved about some of the ones she tried. She mention it rotates so we'll def come back another time to see what's new. I would also like to mention we went earlier in the day to avoid being there when it got busy. I think we planned it out perfectly because around 3pm it started to pick up and people were coming in. read more

This is a nice open space with seating both inside and out. It just happened that the day we visited had drag bingo and I ended up getting a 15% off my check from winning. I enjoyed sitting on the far end where the swings are, but there are plenty of regular tables as well. The card system is easy to use, but you can build up a hefty total pretty quickly. Even with the discount from getting bingo, our total for the two of us was almost $80 including two bags of chips they sell at the counter. All the small tastings add up with a lot of them being almost a dollar for an ounce.
