Set in a charming, rustic old building, the menu is surprisingly interesting. From burgers to ahi poke. We had edamome which were a bit messy to eat but had fantastic flavor. We both ordered the appetizer poke for our lunch. A beautiful plate of food, generous portion, and great flavors. I loved the house made "chili crisp" as an accent, as well as the pickled ginger. This was fun and so satisfying to eat.

The entrance is delightfully well-done, and our faces lit up when we walked into the bar - intricately detailed and authentic enough that a '20s dress code could be reasonably enforced. We were seated immediately, and the cadence of service was immaculate: our appetizer came out just after our drinks, and the entrees appeared as we were taking the last bites of the appetizer. But I wasn't thrilled with my selections. The Rum Punch was served at room temperature and the jalapeño popper chicken sandwich was drier than the description suggested. My partner got the Jalisco Fizz, which she says paired well with the mushroom pasta, and really enjoyed the salmon deviled eggs. At $11-14, the drinks are priced well, but the food is overpriced. The jalapeño chicken sandwich was not a $23 sandwich, and a tempting lobster/shrimp roll was listed at $35. Overall Speakeasy Saloon is worth making an evening of. Dress up and sip on whiskey drinks in the low light with loved ones.

The patio faces one of the main streets so there was lots of good people watching. I ordered a beer flight and was very satisfied with all four of my selections: Prickly Pear Kolsch - it was creamy and easy to drink, bursting with prickly pear flavor; just the right amount of tart and sweet. Lightly Buzzed Honey Lavender Blonde - my favorite of the flight; it was very hoppy but light and refreshing and well balanced by intense lavender flavor and a smooth honey finish. Get it! You won't regret it. High Five Hefe - lighter/less hazy and more hoppy than most hefes it made for a unique and complimentary beer on my flight. Pommeroys Citra Pale Ale - a perfect West Coast IPA. To eat, my pup got the Lucky Dog hamburger (which the chef pre-cut) and loved it! He chowed down in less than a minute. And I got the Mac & Cheese Burger (sub a veggie patty) with the Garlic Fries. It was a very indulgent meal to say the least. The burger was loaded with so much Mac & Cheese that I couldn't even put the top bun on it and pick it up. lol I had to knife and fork the whole thing which was totally worth it. The Mac is a classic home style recipe (think Stouffers but better). Their fries are shoestring and super crispy and salty. And they loaded those up with an amazing garlic aioli and Parmesan. I got a side of their house-made curry aioli and was obsessed with it. Every fry that didn't have sauce or parm got a dip in that deliciousness and I added it to quite a few of the burger bites too. All in all, a great brewpub that I look forward to returning to in the future!

Temperate Habits is one of my top choices in MV when I'm craving good food and a good beer. And now…read morethat they've got their brewery operation full up and running, it's a good spot for both. Not just a brewery, women-owned TH is also a taphouse featuring an assortment of tasty local and regional beers, wines, seltzers, and ciders. You'll find anything from their own house-brewed beers to local favorite breweries from around Washington State. I like going here with The Dude, because they've always got at least a couple of good IPAs on tap for him, as well as more mild choices for those of us who aren't as into over-the-top hoppiness. What sets Temperate Habits apart, though, is their excellent menu. From quirky options (like their famous mac 'n cheese burger) to more traditional offerings (like my favorite, the caesar salad with salmon), there's something here to fit most tastes, and most budgets. We love going here for lunch, grabbing a couple of pints, and splitting one of their tasty cheeseburgers. I'm also a fan of their appetizer brussel sprouts, made (of course) with Skagit Valley's finest. They do have an outdoor patio, which is a good place for people watching (but can get kind of loud as it's right on the street). Going solo? There's almost always a spot at their friendly bar!

It's funny, as many times as I've been to the Trainwreck (which is right next door) I've somehow never noticed Gene's! This is a cozy little spot, with a true friendly and neighborhood feel. The place is full of regulars, and has a couple of pool tables in addition to a nice long shuffleboard table. (The shuffleboard could use a bit of sprucing up, to be honest...it's kinda warped but hey, that makes it fun to figure out I guess!) We usually just get a couple of beers, and they have several good ones on tap - including Manny's from Georgetown Brewing in Seattle, always a local favorite. They also have a full bar and, apparently (according to some Yelp reviews) they have food too, but I don't recall seeing any menus during our visits there. I will have to check it out next time! The service is always mega friendly, and the entire place is clean and not too "divey".

I'm going to get right to it. The staff were slow and very un attentive. Took forever to take our order, refill water or wine. Pretty much non existent through the entire meal Tables are placed to close together in some areas. Which makes for uncomfortable conversations. Unless you turn up the music. Owner was there making rounds, which was nice. She definitely cared and wants the restaurant to succeed. It just seems a bit off. Not sure if it's the servers or the environment. Food was stellar though. I will not complain about that. All of our meals were worth the $$$ Will we come back? It's a 35 min drive. So probably not. Would I recommend it to locals there yes. I lived in the town for 13 years. Give this place a chance. You need something like it!!! Plus the owner cares
