"If you’re looking for a calmer place for you and a couple of strollers, you’re in good hands at Rooftop Brewing, which is a quieter, serene spot—and as the name suggests, is technically located on a roof. Take in the view of Queen Anne homes, at least one small sliver of Lake Union, and/or a giant boat. Their IPAs succeed in particular (don’t miss the Tropical Staycation) and be sure to show up on a Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, as that's when you'll catch the incredible smashburgers from Smash That Burger Co." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
