Very limited menu and staff were not helpful. I had the cordon bleu fold and it was not good. Too much bleu cheese, chicken was chewy and stringy. On the plus side they made a decent "hot" buttered rum. It was warm but otherwise was a good flavor. If it was hot it would have been better. It took 20 minutes to get it so it may have been hot so I can't blame the bar. It was not overly busy but service was slow. When asked about the menu they seemed disinterested. Overall not an experience that would give me a reason to go back. read more

I just left a super positive review a few months ago and we've been going here often and we love their pizza and salads. Just we noticed this particular server...she was wearing crop tank top. Hair is messy ponytail. It's okay it's her style or she wants to show her tattoos or whatever. She brought 3 dishes by herself in her arms, and our salad bowl was touching her armpit. It just felt disgusting and nasty. The table was sticky and we all lost appetite. A lady at the front desk was keep picking her lip. I'm not asking them to cover up, but if you guys are serving food, servers should at least look clean. Don't try to carry all the food at once if you have to use your armpit!!! We were very disappointed. read more

I'm a big fan of this place up north. They had this drawing raffle thing going on (only on the last Wednesday of every month). Be prepared to possibly win something. The food is great. Very pub-like atmosphere. The pizza is huuuuuuuge! I'm so grateful to my friend for introducing me to this place read more

Yes!!! They've got good selections of beers. It was my first time visit that place and ended up having this delicious, delicious pizza there they made from scratch with everything on it. Omg I'm coming back for such pizza night again! The restaurant-pub is very cozy and modern city feels. That's my style! The service was friendly and well managed with timing of its servicing per customers' tables. read more

Service is great, food is really bad. We took my cousin, who is from out of town, here for brunch. They people are really sweet and accommodating. But the food definitely has something left to be desired. Almost all of my party did not like their food. First, they took FOREVER to get the food to us. I ordered eggs benny, and the eggs were legit hard boiled eggs. I asked for new eggs, and, again, the food took forever so my ham and beer bread were cold by the time my new eggs came. They kept saying their kitchen was short staffed. I hear you and have sympathy for that, but get it together. I would avoid this place. read more

Came here to meet a friend for dinner. We got artichoke spinach dip and a pizza to share. First, service was not the best. Seated very quickly, but no warm greeting. No ice in water, straws or napkins given (i later requested napkins with our food). Server took the dinner menu after order just the dip and had to ask for the menu back to order mains and she did not seem happy to. After being served food the waitress came about 1 min in and asked if everything was okay and we said yes. An hour later, no water refills, no check-in. Soon enough I got up to use restroom and she came immediately to ask if we wanted the check (without even asking if there was anything else we wanted... drinks etc). We declined and paid the check and left. Kind of weird service experience, no manners or inviting feeling. Now to the food. Artichoke dip was very good. Pizza had good toppings.. you can do half/half. But the pizza was complete burnt and rock hard. Im a crust person and didnt even eat the crust it tasted like charcoal. You could bang the pizza on the table and it wouldnt bend. I would have told waitress but... we went an hour without anyone stopping by our table. Maybe she will notice when we left our food and didn't take leftovers to-go. Kind of unfortunate when you come out to tip for nice service and better food than what you can make at home. Maybe we just came on a bad night. read more

Nearby restaurant to try from the Hampton hotel. Great fresh salad ( sometimes hard to find when traveling a lot for work). Server Rebekah was great and offered me more tea bags and honey as I was nursing a cold. Very thoughtful and kind. Thank you for your service! A great little find! read more

We were in town just for the night and needed something that had a vegan option. Found Watershed and decided to go there. We were seated in the bar fairly quickly and ordered some food. My husband had mac and cheese and I made a vegan pizza. Food came out fairly quickly and my husband devoured his meal. My pizza was VERY bland. Atmosphere was cool and staff were pleasant. read more

I like coming here before a movie! They also have deals where they sell you tickets for the movies for $10!

Our PTA Board met at the Watershed for a very pivotal meeting. The owners were extremely lovely in coordinating with us to create a space where we could meet and hear each other. The wait staff were attentive and accommodating even after we had more than expected people and some individuals arriving later than others. They split our checks many ways and never batted an eye. In addition, the food and drinks were awesome, as always. We are so grateful to have owners and employees who care so much about our community and who do so much to give back. Thank you! read more

Great place for just hanging out & having a bite to eat. Pizza was great as was the pear, Gruyère, bacon sandwich.like the fact they have many alcohol free drinks. Jazz was playing Sat.night which was also enjoyable. read more

Delicious cocktails and excellent food in this treasure right by the IMAX theater. Service was friendly and the atmosphere sitting outside was perfect, Even in the pouring rain, in the covered area. I recommend this spot for groups or just yourself. read more

I visited Watershed for the first time and it was great! I reserved a larger table and the owner Kelsey was really helpful with the reservation process. The service was great and everyone loved the food/drinks! I especially appreciated the non alcoholic and vegan options! I'll definitely be back when looking for a happy hour space, all my coworkers loved it! read more

Once a while after work, I do come here to grab a drink and work on my stuff on my laptop. "Fast internet" It's a great location and it's close to where I work. They have a good happy hour menu and etc can't remember all the details. I do remember you get a $1 off for their "Well drinks" good deal! I haven't tried their food yet but probably will do next time. Friendly service, some of them free poured my drinks which is a plus and some don't which is alright as well lol! Overall, a great place to go for a beer or drink! read more

Great menu that includes gluten free items. Nice outdoor seating. Trivia night on Tuesday is always fun.

This past Friday at my company office we had a beer exchange which happens about once every month. The beer exchange went so well on my way home back up North from downtown Seattle, I decided to stop at the Watershed Pub & Kitchen with my father. I have never been to this establishment and was surprised that I had never been or seen the place. The location is kind of difficult it being across the street from the Northgate Park and ride and below the Thorton Place apartments. When you first walk into the Watershed you get a warm welcoming and comfortable feel about the place. All the employees there were very friendly. Their beer tap list was phenomenal and my father and I server noted that they don't only serve pizza and that their grilled cheese was famous. It was happy hour so I ordered a beer and the famous grilled cheese and my Dad ordered the Margarita pizza bites which ended up being basically a whole mini pizza. Both were very delicious. By the time it hit 5:30- 6pm the place was packed, bar top was full, it was fast paced a lot of bartenders and bar backs, drinks were getting poured it was an active fun, Friday evening. I couldn't believe I had never been to this place and I instantly messaged my 3 siblings saying we all needed to come here soon it being at Northgate which isn't far from where we all stay. I will be back very soon. read more

I just got laid off from my job earlier this morning and my family wanted to guarantee I got outside to do something fun and different to lift my spirits. We ended up at the brand new Watershed Pub and Kitchen earlier this evening. What a great find and awesome addition to the urban village of Thornton Creek/Northgate! Impressive entrance with the customized iron work. Bright industrial interior tempered with wood work, smooth banquettes and tables, and eye catching lighting. A wide variety of seating arrangements are available to accommodate singles, two tops and upward, and groups. Plus folks with kids are able to dine in designated areas. Sports on the TV screens, an area for darts, and upstairs section too. Evidently down the road there will be outdoor seating to take advantage of the view of the Thornton Creek Watershed. Genuine welcoming vibe from the restaurant staff. Our family enjoyed our friendly and knowledgeable wait person, Janna, who helped us navigate through the menu choices. The husband tried the Tieton Wild Washington Cider ($6) and the kiddo had two glasses of root beer ($5). Husband had the Optimus Grind sandwich ($13) which had San Marzano tomato sauce, basil, pesto, finocchiona salami, Canadian bacon, Mama Lil's peppers, mozzarella and provolone on a toasted Macrina roll. It also came with mixed greens that were lightly dressed. Dressing choices include ranch, red wine vinaigrette or honey lemon. Me and the kiddo shared an 18 inch Delizia Martino pizza that had Beecher's Flagship, blue cheese, parmigiano reggiano, goat cheese, and mozzarella on an olive oil base ($18). We were allowed to have half the pizza with goat cheese, while the other half had the above toppings but with added bacon. Loved that the pizza was piping hot and a chewy, delicious crust. Managed to have some leftover slices to box up to take home. The food and beverage menu will guarantee that everyone in your party will find something of interest. Lots of beer on tap, in cans, and tall boys. There's also cider, wine, cocktails, and other non-alcoholic offerings. Food is of high quality ingredients and locally sourced whenever possible. There's a variety of appetizers ($13-15), salads ($6-9), sandwiches with salads ($10-13), and pizzas ($13 and up). Hours are generous for nearby workers, shoppers, commuters from the Northgate Transit Center, movie goers, and the surrounding neighborhood. Another great dining option in the immediate area! Sunday - Thursday 11am to 12 midnight Friday - Saturday 11 am to 2am Excellent find and look forward to many more opportunities to return with family and friends. Mission accomplished where this evening's experience deserved the five stars. Congratulations and welcome to the neighborhood! read more

They only seem to be able to handle about half their tables (leaving the rest empty). The host said it would be a 10 minute wait. Turned out to be longer, and looking around while we waited, it just didn't seem to be a happy place. So we left to go to a place where we felt welcome. read more

Met a friend for dinner and wine for some girl talk. Last minute changed to here since traffic trying to get anywhere else was out of the question. Had to wait a bit since if was dinner time and also a game was on. Notice the build out and decor as it is in a newer building so your typical retail commercial space that has no character. But they did such a good job trying to make it fill less commercial and more of your neighborhood bar restaurant, using lots of wood and comfy furniture. We ordered a pizza with two flavors. Half was Mama's: san marzano tomato sauce, mozzarella, mama lil's peppers, cascioppo brothers italian sausage, parmigiano reggiano and fresh spinach. The other half was the Ricotta Salsiccia: san marzano tomato sauce, mozzarella, cascioppo brothers italian sausage, ricotta, bell peppers and garlic. We definitely had leftovers :) I like my crust a little more crispier in the bottom but overall it's a good pizza, dough has flavor, toppings were good and enough sauce for me to not complain. Both were yummy, I had a slice of each. Plus we split a bottle of red wine. Service was friendly and great. A nice spot for the neighborhood to grab a bite to eat. read more

Watershed Pub & Kitchen - Pizza was . Half Mama's and have Ricotta Salsiccia - Pubs Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Hard as heck to find. Stick it out though as I think it is worth it. This place came up in a search I did in my local neighborhood, so I wanted to give it a try. It took me about 10 minutes to find it as there is no sign, and it is not near the other restaurants in that area. Look on the SW corner of the building near the creek. Anyway, they have a great selection of rotating beer taps, and the bartender was both nice, and knowledgeable about the different beers. I ordered their soup of the day, which came with a great piece of cheesy bread. Both the soup and the cheesy bread were quite yummy! The pizza's looked really good too. It is a nice place to just hangout in a low-key environment, and has free Wi-Fi. Give it a try! read more

Watershed Pub & Kitchen - Nitro Imperial Red Ale. Hoppy, with a nice cream finish. - Pubs Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is just what the Northgate shopping area needed! I have been here three times now and have been pleasantly surprised and pleased each time! Their pizzas are 18" huge and definitely good to share. Plus they let you half/half it if you are vegetarian and trying to share with a carnivore friend! The salads are also ample in size and fresh-sourced farm to table yummy! Beer selection is great for everyone - gluten free? Check! IPA? Check! Planning on seeing a movie at Regal? Come here first to get your $9 tickets - regular price over there is $12.50 for evening showings! Then come here after for $1 off a drink for everyone in your party - just show your ticket stub! In the back area there's a place for live bands to set up and play on Sundays and when they aren't there you can play darts. Music selection has always been on fleet of you ask me. Last time I was there they played all the good stuff from Weezer's blue album. The time before that they played the Fleet Foxes, Cold War Kids, and the Dodos. Looking forward to coming here many more times in the future! read more

Watershed Pub & Kitchen - Breakfast burrito and Bloody Mary! - Pubs Near Me - Seattle, Washington

If you plan on going to see a movie at Thornton Place in Northgate, this is a great place to grab some food & drink before the show. It's a little tough to find, but there are signs to direct you, it's on the backside of Thornton Place. Came here on a Saturday afternoon for lunch before our movie, nice looking space, new, clean and relaxing. Sitting at the bar was comfy as well. Menu looked good but the pizzas is what caught our attention. So we decided to order the "Mama's Pizza". Quite tasty, freshly made with delicious tomato sauce, yummy sausage, those lil spicy peppers, plenty of mozz and topped with a spinach pile. Pizza was nice & thin, perfect for folding to shove in your face. The pizzas are pretty large, I think they are 18" so its plenty for 2 people. Service was fine, atmosphere was nice, on certain Saturdays, they have a DJ playing some old skool hip hop cuts from R&B to 90's rap etc. DJ came over to admire our lovely pizza, we tried to share with him but he already had lunch. If I see him at a club, Ill be sure to remind him of our pizza encounter. Overall, I liked this place, definitely a spot I would come back to. Pricing was fine, location is great, and food was tasty. read more

We've been here a couple times over the years and each time we've we waited almost an hour for our food, (45mins +) and it's pretty pricey too. The food tasted good though, so maybe just order far in advance! read more

Most amazing grilled cheese I've ever had! Omg! I hymned and hawed over the menu for a long time. Probably longer than most. One of our friends said "don't get the grilled cheese, you can make that at home!" I made him eat his words. I got the classic grilled cheese with ricotta cheese and chicken added, and tomato soup. LIFE CHANGING AMAZINGNESS! My friend and my husband both got the Folds, which are basically calzones. When they came out though, they were just pizzas folded over. My friend was jealous over my grilled cheese. Ha! Glad that's what I went with! Amazing grilled cheese, and a huge portion! Pricey for grilled cheese,$11 + $1.50 for the added chicken, $1 for the ricotta and $1 for the tomato soup. Expensive ass grilled cheese but well worth it. $5-$11 for beers. I got the Boundary Bay IPA it was $5. My husband and I paid $40 for lunch. Pricey, but delicious! read more

This is an AMAZING place to be. Great place , great food , perfect environment to be in . Service is great too. They were so friendly.

The times I've been here have been marred for reasons ranging from the very mediocre food to the generally inattentive wait staff, but this Saturday we didn't even get as far as a table. We stood for a while waiting for the hostess and waitress standing an arm's length away to react to our presence, but despite making eye contact a few times, neither of them spoke to us or approached us. This gave us time to remember all of our other visits and all of the time we've spent there trying to get the attention of our servers and waiting for mistakes in our orders to be corrected. One visit stands out for our having been scolded by a waiter for seating ourselves according to a sign at door directing traffic to our section. No one was seating customers that evening and this waiter spent all of his time waddling around the house and shouting to his coworkers. During that visit, we were served cold food by another staff member and the waiter never returned to our table. Once we had time to think it over, we realized that a weak restaurant with foot-dragging servers wasn't deserving of yet another chance for our business. We left without ever even hearing the voices of the hostess or waitress near the door. They had been engaged in a whispered conversation together the entire time we waited. Crossing out the name of this place in permanent ink. read more

Charming place with great service warm and Welcoming and a nice beer selection. The small Combo Pizza was really good with great Chewy but tender crust and the Grilled Cheese Sandwich and tomato Soup we could've kept eating more and more of those sandwiches. read more

Came here for happy hour on a Thursday (starts at 3pm) with a large party (greater than 10 people) and we got seated immediately. There wasn't anybody in the pub at the time. Drinks: I wanted a light ale and was open to suggestions. Apparently it was our server's first day and although he didn't know the beer selection very well, he recommended the Alaskan White Ale. It was smooth and not too hoppy, so I have to give him props for his suggestion! Food: Right when I saw their happy hour menu, I knew I had to get the half grilled cheese with tomato soup. Been craving this for awhile and there's this one place in San Diego called "Bread and Cie" that has the most amazing grilled cheese/tomato soup combo you will ever have. This place wasn't as good but it definitely satisfied my craving! The cheese was gooey and the tomato soup was creamy and delicious. Some places I've been to tastes like their tomato soup is out of a Campbell's can, so at least this place has some legit tomato soup. Some people in my group got the margarita pizza and the garlic sticks, which weren't anything special, would not recommend getting it. Service: At first, the servers were very attentive and came frequently to check up on us. They gave us good recommendations but as our visit progressed, they came less and less frequently. When we asked for the bill, they were kind enough to split the check (which apparently they don't do if they're busy, but since they weren't that busy, they made an exception). We waited for half an hour, literally, for the checks to come and a few of us needed to leave ASAP to make it on time for work. Overall: 3 stars for their subpar service and their mediocre food. Definitely have had better, but obviously we just came to get a few beers and weren't even thinking of getting food. read more

Watershed Pub & Kitchen - Social distancing outdoor seating available! - Pubs Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Alright, Watershed...you've grown on me. When it first opened, I was not a fan. Probably because one of the first times I came, there was a dude playing loud folk music and I couldn't hear a thing my friend was saying right next to me. I just had a bad first impression and didn't come back for a while. Fast forward a few years, and whether I changed or it changed, it's now my wife and my go-to spot. Living just above at the TP apartments, it's no mystery why we started coming more often. But Watershed quickly grew on us. The many beer choices. The friendly team. The overall relaxed vibe. It's become our friendly neighborhood drinking hole. Foodwise, you got some solid sandwich options and a few good salads, but what they're best at is the pizza and pie folds (a pizza folded over itself slash basically a calzone) They also have family spaghetti nights (I think Tuesdays?) which my wife and I still need to try It does get a little loud when they have live music, but hey - they're supporting local artists so can't really hate on that. read more

Host, manager, server all made the guest feel like a burden for just walking in. We love the cold beer and delicious food, but won't return or recommend based solely on service. read more

Get the beef stroganot which has pieces of beef mixed in with elbow macaroni and gooey cheese. It is so filling yet so good! They are well known for their pizzas which are crispy crunchy and totally worth getting! I love the spicy chicken pesto with red peppers. It is mild spicy to me. My group also got the Waldorf salad which had fresh spinach, strawberries, goat cheese and about 5 chicken slices. It was missing the walnuts. They also have a decent menu of beers, wines and hard liquor drinks. You can also get snoqualmie root beer here in a pitcher. Not sure how much it would cost to get vanilla ice cream for your root beer float though. They were very accommodating for our group and placed us outside on a nice summer day. What'd even more convenient is that it is next to the movie theater. read more

TLDR: not a fast paced place. Comfort food. Loud echoey atmosphere filled with conversation. Very descriptive menu. Great place for snacking and chatting. Wouldn't come here for normal meals. Service: wait to be seated (for the bar too), order at the table, check brought to you, you will be watered. Service seems a bit slow--seems understaffed because the servers seem a bit frantic. Food takes 20-30 minutes to come out after ordering. Award Winning Grilled Cheese: very hearty and coma-inducing. Flavorful but I felt that there were too many grilled onions. Coconut Lemonade: tastes a bit like watered down lemonade. There really isn't any coconut flavor at all. I was pretty disappointed. read more

Average pizzas, meh service. Decent pizza option for catching a movie, skip the salads. Pizzas have a decent crust and aren't soggy. Liked the Parma pizza but didn't care for the Mama's pizza. Limited appetizers, no sides. Salads are bland and uninspired - pretty limited salad selection. Have visited a couple times with underwhelming service both times - be prepared to wait several minutes to be seated even if restaurant is half empty, hostess is likely nowhere to be found. Service appears to be a consistent issue in recent reviews. *12/22 response to Ben C: I've sat both downstairs on the right side in a booth amd recently upstairs. Recent visit was Sunday evening 12/17. read more

Love this place. Brunch, lunch, dinner. Their grilled cheese is amazing, and they have good gluten free options.

On a rare night out my husband and I decided to catch a drink before a movie. It was obvious that this was a popular spot by the line out the door so we grabbed a stool at the bar. This was a great move, as we got to enjoy watching the expert bartender make some great cocktails for other guests. I was in for our own treat when we asked Charles to come up with something light and summery and he delighted me with a hibiscus-infused cocktail that was as beautiful as it was good. We liked it so much, that we went home and ordered a bag of hibiscus flowers to try to make it on our own. Thanks for the inspiration and great time Charles! We will definitely be coming back to Watershed and make sure to sit at the bar. read more

Decent place in Northgate. I don't mind eating here but I personally wouldn't recommend it or go out of my way to eat here. PROS: good location, connection to the community - charity events, trivia night etc, pretty good food, local beer. CONS: inconsistent food, menu could be labeled better i.e. spice-level etc., Overall: I think not my cup of tea, but I know a handful of people who like eating here! read more

Our favorite place to eat before hopping on the link! Obsessed with the BLT pie fold over and Caesar salad! 10/10 food! Staff is very friendly but s ervice can be slow. They've been fairly busy every time we've come so plan ahead so you're not late. Love the rotating menu. We've tried a few seasonal things and everything has been delicious! read more

Fun little place for happy hour. It's got plenty of seating and a neat menu (mostly mac-n-cheeses, pizzas, and variations of pizzas). There are some TV's up so I'm sure people in the area come to watch sports games and such. Everyone in our party ended up getting the "famous" grilled cheeses, which were pretty good and come with a small cup of nicely seasoned tomato soup. The menu was slightly confusing, in that the grilled cheese on the menu is located right under the beer bread sandwiches section that also says "served with a side salad." Since ours came with soup already, I guess that means it doesn't come with salad. The $2 to add pepperoni to a grilled cheese also seemed a bit excessive when you're already paying $11 for a grilled cheese. Happy hour deals were alright, $1 off some food and $1 off well drinks, wine, and beer. 1/2 grilled cheese with soup is on happy hour for $7, so that's probably the way to go if you just want to try the grilled cheese and some other items. I enjoyed the pretzel that I ordered. Service was okay. We didn't order drinks this time and I felt like our server was slightly snooty because of it. They serve brunch too, and have fun events and trivia some nights. I'd come back to try some of their other food items. read more
