Here's the Happy Hour:
Days: Everyday! Yep, the weekend too.
Time: 4pm-7pm
Deal: $4 and $6 pitchers, $3 appetizers, $5 pizzas

I know all the presented happy hour info for certain, but I will get more details within the next week, but still, as you can see, it's a good deal.

Folks, if you want variety, this is the place to go! Try to do it on happy hour, or it's going to cost ya. Although even after happy hour, I'd say you can get a couple of beers and something to eat for about $15. Otherwise, you'll find the beer to be $3-$5, cocktails $7-$8 and food (with a few exceptions) $7-$9. More detail below.

The service was slow at the bar. However, once I found my group, the "service" (uhh...drink service) waitress was relatively prompt and courteous.

The restrooms were very clean, and of average size. Nothing nasty there.

The atmosphere was semi-industrial, but enjoyable enough. There was very little seating on the first floor, but the 2nd floor had more seating, a semi private booth-like area and a pool table.

The whole nine yards:
As soon as you walk to the front, you'll see a big smoker's area just outside the building. Yeah for smokers! Go outside and smoke...damn it! It's not 25 feet away from the door, but then again, I don't think anyone is obeying that part of the rule, but I am very thankful for the indoor portion. Ok, ok, more stuff.

I walk in and I noticed the industrial like atmosphere, bar in the back, band to the right, big crowd in front. At the bar, you'll find an assortment of goodies, including Strongbow in a bottle, YES! For those of you that don't know the bow, see my entry about Strongbow. Like I outlined earlier, actually GETTING the Strongbow took forever, but I did get it.

The variety at the bar is as deep as it is wide. There are 11 draft beers to choose from, $3-$5, some are PBR, Miller Lite, Mack and Jack, Alaskan Amber, and Guiness Stout. There are 5 different white and red wines (each), and ports. In a bottle? There are 9, $3-$3.50, you know you want some Red Stripe, Amstel Light, Heineiken or Strongbow, to name a few.

There are 8 specialty Cocktails, ranging from sweet to sour, to bitter to citrus, from $7-$8, a bit on the pricey side. The food has a wide range as well - 7 apps, 5 salads, 7 sandwiches, 10 pizzas and 3 calzones! We the exception of a few salads and apps, the main prices are $7-$9. The exact menu is on their site (link at the bottom).

I walked upstairs to find lots more seating - good, said pool table - good , and said semi private booth, so you've got a variety of options of things to do while you're drinking. Mix with the main floor people, sit at the bar, go deaf to the band, sit upstairs, gawk from upstairs at the people downstairs (perhaps straight down fellas?), play pool, or get cozy with a complete stranger in the booth. It's variety folks, eat and drink it up at this Seattle bar and lounge! Just remember, for the love of all that's holy, IN MODERATION!!!!!!!!
