"When I stepped into the connected Crossbuck Taproom, the atmosphere was decidedly more casual—televisions aired the hottest sports games and the space felt like a neighborhood spot—yet you can order from either the taproom or the steakhouse no matter where you sit. Crossbuck Brewing, which Thiessen helped found in 2018 alongside Walla Walla Steak Co., reinforces the operation’s ranch-to-table ethos (its spent barley is even used to finish cattle at Thiessen Ranch), and the taproom shares the same Woodinville address and hours: 13205 NE 175th Street, open Wednesday through Sunday, 3 p.m. to 9 p.m." - Jade Yamazaki Stewart
