Hatback Bar & Grille

"With a trip to Hatback, you get a location convenient to the Sodo stadiums, great beer, and food that’s just OK. This huge warehouse of a sports bar has so many TVs that they could play every Olympics event all at once, plus a Seinfeld rerun. The menu has the typical offerings you’d find in such close proximity to astroturf—like pizza, burgers, and various dips, but we aren’t jazzed about any of those. If you’re in the mood to just drink, their selection of local beers range from Fremont Brewing’s lush IPA to Métier’s coconut porter. Walk in with a large group of friends, grab a pint, order a few decent appetizers for the table, and then simply walk across the street to the game." - Kayla Sager-Riley

"Hatback Bar & Grille is already home within the Boxyard, the sprawling development in the old building that formerly housed Pyramid Brewing." - Harry Cheadle

"The Mariners’ new restaurant Hatback Bar & Grille will open in August in the old Pyramid Brewing building, just across the street from T-Mobile Park in SoDo. Hatback will feature American classics like burgers, pizza, and oysters, and its signature colors (royal blue and gold) are a tribute to the baseball franchise’s original uniforms. The name is also a reference to Ken Griffey Jr., one of the Mariners’ greatest players." - Mark Van Streefkerk
