A sibling to the Hilltop Ale House in Queen Anne, this is the kind of place that, if you lived nearby, you’d find yourself in several times a week. It’s as comfortable as a British country pub, with an ambience that will make you feel like an instant regular – plus there are dozens of outstanding beers on tap.
