So many tasty food and beverage options. Situated inside an old firehouse, they have a full bar and plenty of seating for everyone. We decided to have my graduation dinner here and they were able to take reservations for a large group. They also have a few large tvs in the place so you can watch the local sports games while you eat. There is also a stage for live music and the establishment is also welcoming to families with kids.

Pretty cool place with quite a bit of seating. We had the spicy chicken wrap and the chunky burger. Both were good. The wrap wasn’t very spicy but was big and filling. I’d probably try the club or blta next time, though. The curly fries were a nice touch. We arrived after two big parties and were told we would have to wait a bit for the food, but it actually came out pretty quick. It was pretty loud, so if you’re looking for something quiet peek in first and see if there are lots of big groups.

I went here with friends for a Friday night. The building was formerly a fire station. The interior was bright, warm and inviting. Their wait staff were pleasant and gracious. There was plenty of seating, though most filled up by the time we left.

I love this place! I come here pretty often for happy hour. Everyone working here is really nice! Danielle is awesome! All the drinks are great (and a really good price, especially for Ballard), I always get a Peachy-O and some shareables. Definitely recommend!

Oh how I miss the Hi-life ! Especially after coming here for ” happy hour”. Portions are either way too big or way too small. The service was great, a bit awkward, but nice people. The Mac and cheese had blubbery bacon with watery cheese sauce, and my salad was fresh but they over loaded it with greasy chicken. The cheese curds with jalapenos and asparagus was laughable @ a whooping $16 a plate. Everything on the menu seems previously frozen. Almost $100 later( only had one beer) and I regret to say I won’t return. Also hire a new dish washer my waitress had to change out our plates and silverware twice. Best advice is to model what Hi-life created and I thought was successful.

The portobello tacos were delicious! I also thoroughly enjoyed the Lavender Bees Knees drink our waitress, Danielle, recommended. My boyfriend thought his French dip sandwich was pretty good also. A little on the expensive side – $18 for two small tacos. Great service and the old building is fun. Vegetarian & vegan friendly.

I love this spot – best happy hour in Seattle! The menu is amazing and there’s always a new soup to try; pozole, chili, sancocho, etc. All of them are so tasty. The staff is extremely friendly and constantly working together to provide excellent service for the entirety of your visit. Drinks never go empty here!
