Georgetown Bars for Your Evening
Jules Maes Saloon
Begin with a sense of history at Jules Maes, widely described as Seattle's oldest bar, whose roots reach back to 1888 when it opened as The Brick Store. Anyone curious about old Seattle drinking rooms will find the main draw right there in that long past. Order the giant mozzarella sticks, which have become the house calling card, and settle in with friends who want food alongside their beer.
Star Brass Lounge
Head next to Star Brass Lounge at 5813 Airport Way S, a bar with a loyal following among Georgetown locals. Local beer takes the spotlight here, so it makes a natural stop as you explore what the area brews. Come for a relaxed neighborhood feel rather than a scene, and let the night slow down for a round or two.
9lb Hammer
Rack up a game at 9lb Hammer, a classic dive and the sibling bar to Star Brass Lounge, where the pool is free and so are the peanuts. That easy combination makes it a favorite setting for casual nights with friends. Most of the taps pour Georgetown Brewing beer, so you can taste the neighborhood brewery's lineup without leaving your barstool.
Georgetown Liquor Company
Turn up the volume at Georgetown Liquor Company, which brings a punk rock attitude to the neighborhood. The kitchen turns out vegan pub food, a welcome choice for plant based eaters who still want something hearty with a drink. Expect loud music, a laid back room and a crowd that likes it that way.
About Georgetown Brewing
Think of Georgetown Brewing as a different kind of stop, since it is a brewery rather than a bar. You will spot its beer all over the neighborhood, especially on the taps at 9lb Hammer. Check the brewery's own website to see what it offers visitors.
Before and Between Rounds
Start your Georgetown bar crawl in daylight to make the most of it. Swing by Oxbow Park to see the Hat 'n Boots, a landmark roadside attraction that was moved to the site. Nearby, Georgetown Playfield is a Seattle Parks and Recreation park set among some of the area's best known landmark buildings.
