Pike Pub & Brewery

Downtown, Pike Place & Waterfront


Leading the way in the US microbrewery revolution, this brewpub was an early starter, opening in 1989 underneath Pike Place Market. Today it continues to serve good pub food (mains $15 to $26) and hop-heavy, made-on-site beers in a busily decorated but fun multilevel space. Free tours of the brewery are available.

Friendly bar staff will help you pair beer with your food.
