Brouwer's Cafe Seattle

With more than 60 draft beers, another 300 in the bottle, and an impressive Scotch selection to boot, this isn’t some amateur college bar — though weekends do bring the lugs who chug.

The Hunt Club Seattle

You’re an old-fashioned girl. Mostly because that’s what’s sloshing around in your stomach. Grab a classic cocktail at the rustically elegant establishment in the plush Sorrento Hotel. Happy hour twice daily keeps the martinis flowing.

Twilight Exit Seattle

Enter through the bar’s alley door and leave the workday behind with blitzed-out patrons, surprising bar food (deli sandwiches), shuffleboard, retro basement-style decor, and, oh, hefty pours that’ll really transport you.

Bathtub Gin & Co. Seattle

Marked only by a small brass plaque in Gin Alley, this prohibition throwback could easily be missed. Once inside the romantic hole-in-the-wall, classic drinks and decor will be all you need to get back.

Tavern Law Seattle

A mahogany bar, legal books, and leather booths make a good case for drinking historic cocktails at this classic pub. Dishes like braised pork belly and fried oysters deliver favorable verdicts, too.
