REVIEW OF NEW OWNERSHIP, LATE-2017: I have SO MUCH LOVE for the fact that this place is a gluten free/celiac HAVEN! Seriously, it is the ONLY place I can walk into and know I don't even have to THINK. Sure, they have a couple of gluten items that I can't have, but the majority of their menu is a free for all for me. And has variety. And is DELICOUS (Jonesy is a master...and Amber's homemade pickle spears....omg). I always tell everyone that Kenji and Amber had my back and taught me everything I know when the celiac kicked in, and saved me YEARS and YEARS of heartache (stomachache? delerium?). Down to which boozes are safe. They're my heroes, and just opened their own bar/restaurant down the street from me. This is my haven, in a way that the place they worked before this and got the owner to install a dedicated GF fryer was my haven. My only one. They deserve to be shouted from the rooftops for this. Just had to shout that out. This is my "normal" place. I have only one. read more

They have been consistent and friendly with their services during this time! As always, the food and drinks (especially the spicy chicken and pickles) are top notch. A welcome environment and great atmosphere with cleaning and social distance protocols! read more

Kinji the owner was very friendly and informative. If you like a laid back atmosphere, an excellent bourbon selection, and good food, this place is for you. This area of town has a lot to offer as well. It's a nice place to just walk around and explore. read more

Great vibe but very mediocre food and drinks (cocktails were bordering on bad). Having lived in Nashville for 2 years, the hot chicken here doesn't even compare. The ambience is very Nash though, and even the employees look like they were shipped over from Tennessee. I'd definitely come here for a night out with friends because of how cute and cosy it is; just don't expect anything other than average level bar food & drinks. read more

LISTEN TO ME NOW! This little gem in Fremont has been revived. New owners. New chef. New menu (cocktail and food). New vibe. Great atmosphere. I'm loving the shrimp and polenta right this minute. read more

Great food and great atmosphere! Sunday brunch is 10/10. Only bummer is long waits occasionally but it's 100% worth it!

Awesome service with great food. Fried chicken is exceptional - mostly deboned, except for the small part of the wing. Choose from regular or spicy. Also love their meatloaf sandwich. Mac and cheese is hard to beat, too. New owner, Amber, and her staff always make us feel welcome, as this has become our new go-to place for lunch, dinner, and/or drinks. read more

Haven't been to Triangles? Well your missing out, Friday's are my favorite day to go. It's busy yes, but food and drinks are great! Friday staff. Jacob is my favorite! He keeps us coming back! read more

TLDR: The Barrel Thief is something like a block away. Go there instead. I tried out the Triangle for the first time since 9 Million Dollars in Unmarked Bills closed and was not impressed. First off, it was far to loud. The guy next to me tried to start up a conversation, but I really couldn't hear him. I glanced at the menu and although a few interesting selections appeared that were not at the Barrel Thief or Brouwer's, those few amounted to exactly 5. The menu was simply shorter. Furthermore, the staff were less informed about the offerings, having to go check to answer my questions about ambiguous whiskeys. The staff was fairly attentive, though they filled my glass with ice water, which seemed like a clearly wrong decision given that I was drinking whiskey neat. My impression is that this is not a bar for people who want to appreciate spirits or have intimate conversations. I was there though, so I followed my M.O. and ordered a half pour. The bartender had no problem with this request and eventually returned with a very large half pour. The bar was not using snifters (no joke, if you are serious about whiskey, Brandy, or at least Scotch, you should be drinking out of these. I know, right?!), but the pour seemed on the large side, so I figured it was a fair compromise. When I ordered another half pour though, the bar keeper insisted that I had not ordered a half pour before because she would not have served one to me. So, that is pretty tautalogical. This was my first drink of the evening and and I distinctly remember asking for a half pour and waiting to take a sip of water until my order had been accepted in case I needed to walk out. The bar keeper clearly was in a groove and not paying that much attention to what I said. Further evidence of this was that when I pointed to a somewhat unusual menu item and asked about it, stating its name (which had a unique element to it) while pointing to the corresponding bottle on the shelf, the bar keeper went over and indicated a different bottle. Then when I pointed out that the item on the menu was incorrect, the bar keeper casually dismissed it as a labelling error. What? So I ordered it anyway because I had wanted to try it and the bar keeper bullied me into paying for a full pour. Despite that, I really enjoyed the whiskey and intend to buy a bottle, though I don't think that says much about the quality of Triangle. Of course, a single pour costed roughly 20% of the price of the bottle (in contrast, my first drink costed closer to 30% of the price of a bottle) and I really was only thrilled by the first half pour, so this was not a terrific outcome. I left a slightly generous tip because I realize that the bar keeper has a difficult job, but it really was not deserved. Needless to say, I will not be coming back and will encourage my co-workers not to go here either. At least when I do not enjoy a $30 half pour of Scotch at Bouwer's I can appreciate that the price is at market level and that I did not need to pay for a full pour. And, of course, the Barrel Thief has a great selection of liquors and a couple of terrific staff, as well as a better atmosphere and lower prices. And there is no problem with half pours. Don't visit the Triangle. Compared to the Red Door, the prices are competitive and at least Triangle has something on the menu worth drinking, but that is pretty much the only thing that could redeem Triangle in any way. What fascinates me about my emotions following this experience is that while I have often left an establishment thinking "this place deserves to go under (such as after I got deathly ill after using Jai Thai's disgusting bathroom) or "this place deserves to stay in business" (such as after I had an amazing doughnut at Donut Factory), this is the first time I have left a place thinking "they deserve the opportunity to fight to stay in business, but I hope they fail". read more

Definitely a neighborhood favorite. Great staff, killer cocktails, and great food. Get the hot chicken or the hot chicken sandwich! So good!

Under new management- huge improvement. Both the food and drinks were delicious!! I had the hibiscus paloma. Will definitely be back soon! read more

Awesome bar. Got a cool vibe. The bartenders, especially the guy with the blond hair, all seem like they love their jobs and have a good time doing it. Service was quick, the food was tasty and you simply cannot leave without trying an Old Fashioned. They're amazing. One of the best I've had in the city. Their food menu is small but good for snacking, and if a meal is what you're looking for I'd suggest their chicken salad sandwich. The bartender recommended it to me and it was as good as he said. Came here on a Saturday night, had a couple drinks with my friends. Left happy. Would have liked to stay but we were bar hopping. The music was rad. They were playing some sweet late 90s/early 2000s pop punk, and the playlist was choice. Will be back. read more

Great food, great place, great service. The place is very homey and cozy. Seating everywhere, and we could sit wherever we wanted. We were given a drink and food menu that had lots of different variety catering to southern cuisine. The food was amazing. It hit the spot when it came to the sausage plate, ordered mine with cheesy grits and a garlic spread with biscuit. The food came out super quick so that was pretty neat. Can't wait to come back! read more

Great happy hour. Enjoyed the popcorn chicken and deviled eggs. Service was good and prices fair. Recommend for happy hour and brunch.

What was once a run down bar called 9 Million in Unmarked Bills now has new owners...and wow does it make all the difference in the world! Such a pleasure to walk in and see a super clean bar with a laid back vibe and experience excellent service. The liquor selection is also top notch, and the food was on point as well. Glad to see this Fremont staple brought back to its former glory. Bottom line...come drink here. You won't be sorry. read more

My review will not do this place justice. The staff was beyond helpful. After a short conversation with the bartender, he was able to recommend a few whiskeys I would like. (I think I found my new favorite (whiskey and bar)) The fried chicken sandwich was recommended by the regular to my left. It did not disappoint! Great service, great atmosphere, great locals. I live in Tacoma and I'm already planning my next trip up. read more

Only one day in Seattle and we got a recommendation for Triangle Spirits. It's in a funky little neighborhood with friendly people and interesting statues. The atmosphere was a blend of southern country and chic with a friendly staff and a comfortable feel. The food was delicious and the drinks generous and well made. It's a winner! read more

See all

We ordered their fried chicken dinner for Christmas Eve and it was amazing! We had the kale salad and mac and cheese for our sides and they were fabulous too. We'll be back for sure! Thanks! read more

The new ownership has taken a great location and made it into a truly great bar. We had a couple happy hour cocktails and the truffle popcorn ($2!) which were all delicious. Everyone was friendly and helpful and it's clear how much effort they are putting into turning it around. read more

The overall atmosphere was great, but the bartenders absolutely ruined what was supposed to be a special night. I was there with some friends, having a good time, and I went to order a round of drinks, and the bartender told me I was cut off for not tipping. I was confused, because I had only placed one order prior to this, and I was very sure I had tipped. When I asked if I could confirm they had gotten my previous tip, the bartender and I looked through the receipts and confirmed I had, indeed, tipped. But they informed me I still would not be served. I didn't raise any argument, as obviously there wasn't a point, but this was extremely unprofessional, unfriendly, and insulting. read more

Amber and Kenji have brought the life back to this bar and thankfully gotten rid of the stupid name it temporarily had.

My friends and I came into Triangle Spirits after having a few beers at Add-A-Ball. Our bartender and waiter was awesome. We started off with French Fries and Mashed Potatoes. Both were delicious, but what stole the show was the sauce for the fries. The sauce was so good, I asked the waiter if it was possible to get the fried chicken tossed and baked in the sauce. He was skeptical at first, but asked the kitchen staff to do it. I am not sure if it is a regular item or not, but my God was it fantastic. Easily the best chicken I've had in a long time and probably one of the best food I ate while in Seattle. Furthermore, the drinks were perfect. Not too strong with full of flavor. Overall, fantastic experience and great spot. read more

I came here on a Tuesday night (it was not busy)with friends. We walked right past the bartender when we entered and was never greeted. We sat at the bar for a few minutes watched the bartender clean glasses and do dishes so I finally asked how he was to see if he would serve us. We were never offered menus or if we wanted a drink. He sat water in front us of and walked away. After several more minutes of no service as we watched the bartender put up glasses we walked out and on our way out the he shouted "hey guys"! Well hey bartender it would have been nice to get a beer! read more

We got takeout and it was perfect! Great portions but more importantly it was packed with care. We ordered poutine and gravy was on the side. Add that to the crispy fries and we are in heaven. Chicken was excellent, crisp with some spice! Green beans were spicy and cooked to perfection. Usually everything is soft and steamed when you get it home with takeout but The Triangle did it right! read more

Don't let the name change fool you, it's still the same owners from 9 million in unmarked bills. I thought the food was a rip off both times. I just bought there $12 gumbo special, even recommend by the waitress, same quality and quantity if I bought a can of soup at the grocery store. The place looks cool, but there are so many other better places in that area that have better food, beer... read more

This bar was such a pleasant/random find... we were walking towards a different destination when I felt a need to grab a drink and quick restroom break; however, we ended up staying way longer than expecting. Kenji (forgiveness for misspelling) was our barkeep and so unbelievably kind and warm. The atmosphere was not incredibly busy anywhere for the day, and he took the time to get to know our preferences on cocktails. This resulted in 4 very unique and incredible drinks! Not to mention that the conversation was great as well! All the staff were smiles and ready to serve! We were disappointed we ate a plate of fries previously to sitting, because they serve a poutine that looks INSANE, but I digress... we had the deviled eggs, and being from the South, it felt that we were home. Cannot say enough positive things about this gem! Cheers! read more

Fried chicken is off the hook. Had the family bucket recently and got universal thunks up from the fam!

Just going to get straight to the point. The owners are amazing. The food is absolutely bomb. Happy hour is off the chain. Deviled eggs for a buck? Cmon man. Tried the hot fried chicken sandwich and let me tell you...I lived close to Nashville and they blew my mind. Best.place.in.freemont. Period. Drinks are on point, super warm atmosphere, cool decor...not to sound like a artsy geek. Musician owned, great couple, of you are within an hour drive and don't hit this place up you are wasting your time in Washington. read more

I really liked this place, but I found it to be a little pricy for the food. We had the shrimp and grits (which was awesome), but I found it to be a little pricy. Overall, it was a great experience! I would defiantly go back for the drinks, but probably not the food due to the price. Also, beware the pictures of the menu on here are not accurate at all. It is far more pricy than the listed menu would suggest. read more

I go every Thursday after work. Ambiance is a 10/10 easily. Gimme that cozy vibe. Bartenders are friendly and attentive. Menu is centered around delicious fried chicken. What more do you want from drinking hole? read more

Excellent place! I had a mimosa and eggs Benedict so good! My boy got a chicken sandwich and it was super huge! The service is nice and the place is super cute! I loved it :) read more

This is such a great spot. The fried chicken sandwich is incredible. Get it "hot." Ask about the off menu stuff too...like the fried chicken Benedict. read more

We were delighted on our first visit to Triangle Spirits. The owners have lovingly created a new restaurant in this historic building in the heart of Fremont and not to be confused with the previous 9 Million in Unmarked Bills. They have one of the best happy hour menus in Seattle. Love the deviled eggs, green bean salad, and meatloaf sliders. The burgers are great and they have some of the best prices on happy hour beer & wine. The service is prompt and attentive. We met the owners who actively work the restaurant and have extensive experience in running restaurants. We look forward to trying more menu items. Would definitely recommend this place! read more

Great place to have a whiskey. This place is located in the Fremont District of Seattle. Everyone has a great time at this bar-tavern. We will be back read more

Amazing food and atmosphere. Service was fast. Best margaritas in Seattle. Can't wait to come back.

We had our small wedding reception in the back "triangle" room and it was perfect. Amber and her staff were exceptional. When organizing the reception she was super responsive and accommodating. Our server during the event was attentive and prompt. On top of this, the buffet the chefs laid out was beyond our expectations, the next day what we continued to hear was the chicken was the best most had EVER had. If you are thinking of booking the back room for a small event don't hesitate, I can't recommend it enough. read more

Great staff, great fried chicken, and tasty fries. This is a bar with really good food. Ask the bartender about bourbon options / he's an expert!! read more

Stopped here while visiting from California a few weeks ago. The location is in a cool part of Fremont. The bar is very hip, staff is super friendly, and the food was delicious and fresh. We had the shrimp and polenta and meatloaf sandwich. Both were amazing!!!!! Next time we're in the Seattle area, we'll definitely be back. read more

Don't have a lot to say, I'm afraid, since my friends and I came into this place, barely half full, and waited 15 minutes before leaving. Why the quick exit? While the bartender seemed to be reasonably and understandably busy mixing drinks, his two servers had their hands full chatting with each other. Luckily, they got us some menus a minute or two after sitting down, but that was the extent of their service. No greeting, no return to see if we'd like something: no, their conversation seemed too pressing for that. Okay, that's not fair: the conversation actually seemed pretty mundane. Which made their seeming refusal to come back to see if we'd like to order all the more perplexing. They looked at us a few times, like they might check to see if we wanted to order, but then started putting away glassware and changing the lettering on their sign above the bar. That's cool. We had planned on getting dinner and drinks between the 3 of us, so I'm sure that $80-$90 tab wasn't worth their time. read more

Great place - surprisingly delicious drinks and a great menu, while maintaining a comfortable, laid-back vibe. Will definitely be coming back. read more
