Just The Tap

Great find while searching for spots to get beer on Untapd. Somewhat difficult to find, but they were nice enough to keep putting signs that even though it looks like you’re heading into a dead end alley you are in fact almost there. Great concept with the pour your own beer which isn’t new, but they made it way more fun making everything out of wood. I’ve been to a few places with individual taps, but this one you get a key fob which activates the tap and then there is an old school cash register type counter tracking your ounces. Best part is after you stop, it flips all the way back to 00 with a very satisfying clattering noise. Really fun concept and well executed. I’m concerned people may lose the little key fobs, or break the tiny little hooks for hanging the fob over the tap, but I’m sure they can work that out. Think there were 20 beers and ciders on tap but at least 5 were kicked or out of order when I was there. A great mix of styles and varieties with some fun local finds. I actually didn’t try the food but there were some creative pizza options for sure. Really cool atmosphere as well with a few different seating areas, some communal and others more private. Really great spot and will be back when I’m visiting Seattle for sure!!

Step into a beer bar where you can pour your own drinks, feast on pizza and Brazilian BBQ, engage in board games, and enjoy a few rounds of pinball. It's worth noting that some of the pinball machines may have technical issues. The diverse beer selection caught my attention, but unfortunately, the pizza fell short of expectations. While not bad, the flavors were lacking depth and the slices were smaller than anticipated. This unique concept has potential, but it didn't quite meet my expectations.

Wow, wow, wow! We had no idea what we were stepping into down a long corridor to enter.. but I am SO THANKFUL we did! My wife and I live in a small town in Alaska off the road system so our options for a fun night out are quite limited on the daily.. We went to Seattle for a long weekend in the city a few weeks back and decided to check out a few spots we haven't seen yet! Just The Tap was so fun!! Even at 230pm 🤣 Pouring your own beers, so you could pick how much or how little you wanted.... Board games are plenty, and some of the nicest staff I've met in the Pacific Northwest so far! We did not have a chance to try the pizzas but they looked incredible! We're going to save that for the next time we go back!

This place is such a breath of fresh air when it comes to bars and taverns. There's so much to do here that you could easily lose track of time. There's a board game room, a pinball arcade room, a neon glow in the dark room and a main room with long tables where one could sit and share a drink or meal (pizza) with friends or friendly strangers. Also, you're charged by the oz. for beer, so it's just a really cool concept.

Stopped in after seeing a sign down by pikes place. Very impressed with this place. Underground speak easy vibes. The self pour beer wall was made by the owners! Super easy to use and made drinking beer more hands on. There’s a whole room for pinball and beer pong. Fun swing room that’s glow n the dark & black light. They have a room for events. Loved the vibe. Gonna get friends together and make a night of it. Didn’t try the food but it smelled and looked delicious. So glad places like this exist in Seattle! Y’all are doing great work here. Be sure to come check this place out! Cheers

The self-service pay by-the-ounce tap is an awesome concept. Great way to try as much as you like of each beer. The staff was friendly and informative. The pinball selection was excellent. The space room was particularly cool. My only complaint was the by the slice pizza was a little small but it's $5 in downtown Seattle, what do you expect.

Self serve beer taps, pinball, games and fluorescent lit beer pong. This place is so rad! Shout out the the toilet paper in the bathrooms, 10/10 for softness and 10/10 for cleanliness. Thanks y’all!!

Pour your own beer with attached kitchen and pinball. Great tap selection on the day I was here with my family visiting from Ohio. We wandered past on the way to find something to do after leaving the market. Open to all ages! Our kids love pinball and I love beer. The pour your own concept is really cool and not something that we have available back home. The 18 pinball tables held my 4 kids attention while my wife and I got to sit and enjoy a few drinks. There are clean bathrooms, and a couple of separate dining areas (one was playing live sports) for you to enjoy as well. Thanks Aaron! We wish you the best of success!

This is an hidden gem, the prices are great and it's absolutely amazing. I will definitely be back next time I come to Seattle.

The ambiance is really cool! There's a variety of options for groups of all ages. They have a beer pong room with a speaker, pinball, board games, swings, and more! The bartender was doing his best but it was a bit of a long wait with just one person. The pizza was ok - I wish they'd do slices of all of them. I did like a lot of the beers and the self-pour method!

Very cool venue! We happened across this place while wandering around downtown Seattle.. we like beer so we decided to check it out. It's one of those places where you get a card and you can pour your own beer from the taps, as little or as much as you want. We like trying new and different beers so we love these kinds of places. We got our card and ordered a couple of slices of pizza. We tried some beers while we waited for our pizza. The pizza wasn't very good, it was kind of like a wet noodle, I like my pizza crust crisp. But the venue is cool, different themed rooms: space room, pinball room, etc.. it would be a cool place for a private event. All in all cool place, good selection of beer and cool themed rooms.

Been back several times and it keeps getting more awesome than before. Love this place overall. The ambiance is great and there is a swing room, a pinball room, and a place to play board games (more to come). As far as the food goes, the pizza is creative and the fries were fantastic. My favorite pizza is the pulled pork pizza followed by the mushroom pizza. However, I've had most of the menu for pizza and it's never a bad choice. For dessert, the banana cinnamon pizza hits the spot. Also, do not forget the Brazilian menu which is beyond tasty if you want more of a full meal. As far as the beer prices go, they are reasonable. You can pour as much or as little as you want from the taps. I was able to try the majority and on average a pint came out to about $6-$7 a pint which is well worth and on the average. However, in this case, you do not have to buy a whole pint of something you do not like. The prices are displayed on each tap before you pour so you can control the price as you pour. For the service, it's fantastic! The staff are friendly and very helpful. They have buzzers for when you food is ready so you can enjoy the other areas and not have to wait around for the food call. For the spaces, you can choose to chill in the swing room, get your game on in the pinball room, or play card/board games. My favorite is the pinball, where there is a wide selection that will keep you entertained for hours (or just play 007). If you are visiting the area or are a local, stop on in and spend some time at a local owned small businesses. There are events starting (like pinball leagues), etc. It's worth checking out and to keep checking out as it grows. #supportlocal

This place is super super cool! Kind of a strange entrance and a bit confusing but once you find your way in it's super cool. We rolled in and the cashier was extremely friendly. He explained everything to us super well and was super welcoming. They have a ton of great beer options and a lot of ciders actually, which em turned out to be really fantastic. They have food which we didn't try but options for Brazilian BBQ and pizza. The space room and pinball room are both really cool. The pinball room can kind of suck your money up pretty quick at $0.75 per game but it's still quite fun. They have some big tables for large groups and tons of games so you don't have to spend the money on other stuff if you want to just hang out and drink beer. Overall this is an awesome little spot in Seattle and would definitely recommend a visit!

This bar in Belltown is so underrated! With beers and ciders on tap, hard liquor, glow pong, glow-in-the-dark swings, football streaming, and pinball machines, there's something for everyone here. The service was super top notch and friendly. I'd definitely recommend coming here because it's awesome!

Great idea. Super fun to sample beers I would never order. I tried 2-4 oz of a couple beers before settling on the North-West Beer Lager. Hubby started with a Pilsner then drank IPAs. Efficient and friendly staff.

Food was good at least my friends loved pizza and I loved the fries. Beer on tap I gotta try next time. I liked the service and ambiance was relaxed. The guy went out of his way to accommodate us even after closing, what a guy

The pizza in this place is pretty amazing! They have sweet ones that make your jaw drop!! This is my FAVORITE place to grab pizza and some beer! Also the cool games make it very special!

Ambiance is good, concept is good, unexpected prices are not. Ended up paying $38 for (3) beers. You can go up the street to black cat and get (5) beers for the same price. Tipping system is a little unusual. Tipping for pouring your own beers/cleaning your own glass didn't sit well with me.

I went on Saturday. I was there at 11 when they opened. (Quick tip... Be there when they open can part by the door.) We sat in the space room. We got a 1/2n1/2 pizza. 1/2 Meatza with Pineapple and 1/2 Veggie. I have to say this pizza was awesome. It made most othe pizza joints seem like they all shop the same stores for ingredients. On the Veggie side.... Big fresh mushrooms on the pizza. It was beautiful. The Meatza it was layered, and so beautiful. We took it with us. I finished my 1/2 today. 1 piece I microwaved was good. I also baked left over piece in oven. OMG IT WAS GOOD. The service was nice. They have a space room. Very cool experience here is my TikTok video I shot. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT81uDgJv/ We had to leave, but I'm going back

Fun place, yummy beer, good pizza. Love that you can taste different beers in small amounts. Kid friendly so met up with friends and the kids played pin ball and board games and had a great time too.

The food was AMAZING! Steak and fries with chimichuri sauce-- AND I loved the experience! Great service. Awesome vibes. Great space to chill and have a few pints! #noregerts

IPA to cider,very unique experience! fries were great as well ;) We were privy to taste testing , owners r awesome:) best wishes and hope2 c u next visit !

This place is amazing. I haven't found a similar place that you can "hang out" in downtown. There's couches, a swing room, tables and a big screen, a pinball room, and they are also slowly adding MORE rooms. The pizza is phenomenal and so is the Brazilian food. The beer? I love that I don't have to get a full glass and can have as much or little as I want of each. Somehow their ciders are amazing considering I don't typically love ciders. The staff is always helpful and kind, and there are lots of games to play if you want (from uno and joking hazard to the hook swing game, you'll find numerous things you like!) This is truly the hidden gem of Belltown but it shouldn't be hidden. Check it out and you'll fall in love. Promise. This is a place to come with friends and chill, you don't feel pressured by servers and it just feels so fun no matter what you are into.

Checked this place out yesterday, and it was a lot of fun! You can get a whole pizza or buy any pizza by the slice, which is great for those of us who don't like to commit. Pouring your own beer is also great for the same reason. I tried every single item that was on tap, and I shared a slice of the curry chicken pizza. Drink wise, I ended up mixing two of the ciders, which was so delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful. They have board games you can play, pinball, and local artwork up. The swing room was occupied by another party, but that only gives me a reason to come back again. I don't understand the complaints about the prices. The information is very clearly available, and it's not fair that people are leaving bad reviews because they can't math. This place is definitely worth checking out, grabbing a slice and at least doing some tastes of the beer, mead, kombucha, and ciders.

Great pizza. I had a Brazilian chicken curry with jalapeños and onions and sour cream. Weird combination, but so good. I travel a bit and try to taste pizza everywhere I go, this was very unique and I will be back again for the Winter Classic. I was there in May for the Kraken/Stars playoff game and found your place by accident when I saw your small sandwich board a few blocks away chained to a bike rack. So glad I found your place!

Be prepared to reach into your wallet for some expensive beer pouring! Paid for a large pizza, which was delicious, and (5) beers totaling $120.00. Cool concept, great chef, good music, just need to dial in the prices for the beer or we will not be back.

Great vibes, easy to keep your glass full and try new and interesting drinks you otherwise wouldn't. Good selection of boardgames and pinball machines too. Staff has always been friendly and engaging.

Beer selection was good. Pinball was 75 cents a game which was nice, but oddly no music was playing in that section of the venue and the change machine had no change in it. They are located in a basement so there are no windows. I didn't like that I could not find a clearly labeled alternative exit besides the way I came in. I got turned around on the way out after visiting the restrooms. I didn't buy any food so can't review that. The website did list that all ages were allowed, still I was disappointed they allowed kids here since the place looks sophisticated with all the woodwork. I'll bring out of town friends here while we do our pinball tour of the city. Staff was nice and friendly!

Food is okay but the beer experience and weekly events make this a real nifty place! Definitely worth checking out

It's a cool and fun place to go in Belltown seattle. We had a few beers from the beer wall, and the coolest thing about it was that we didn't have to order a whole pint to taste lots of different beer types. There you pay by the ounce and the more high-end beers we just got to taste it one or two ounces, since we are not crazy drinkers. And then we tried 8 or 9 beers and didn't drink that much. Cool concept and no wait at all. Along with it, we had some pizza slices and come on?! Churros pizza? You've got to be kidding me? It was the best of all times. Hands down to this place. Next time, I'll bring my brother's family to play some pinball with the kids.

Cool speakeasy vibes with nice tap selection, pizza and Brazilian food. Love the trippy swing room, pinball and plethora of boardgames. My new favorite Belltown spot.

Super cool spot to hang out with friends!! I love the vibes, and all the different rooms make it such an easy bar to bring anyone to because you have so many options for things to do.

The opposite of boring; definitely a unique place to get a drink. Excited to see what else is to come.

Super fun space! Lots of different rooms to visit, and great beers to try! We settled in the neon swings room and visited the pinball room as well. Nice to be able to taste as many beers/ciders as you want. Prices are by the ounce, so be mindful as you pour your own tastes. If we were local I know we'd be here often!

This place is a great edition to the neighborhood. Ample and varied beer selection, a fun set of pizza by the slice, and we really enjoyed the variety of pinball machines too. Super friendly staff, looking forward to returning!

Absolutely loved this place! They just opened up and have a great selection of taps on. The entrance is a little hidden but past the gate, through the door and down the hall you'll find a little check-in bar desk where you can get your key fob. Once you go over to the taps you hang your fob on the hook and your tap will light up, allowing you to pour. Fobs do have a limit of I think 32oz before you have to check back in and get a new one, I believe to control the amount and rate of consumption. There were several seating rooms and while I did find the separation of rooms odd, I think it allows you to sort of select your experience. They have a great pizza selection, and it's somehow also a Brazilian steakhouse. There's a wall of games, a swing room, and a piano. I think they're still finding their groove but overall we love the idea for this place and can't wait to see how they settle in.

Came here very excited to try the spot & pour myself a beer but very confusing with communication of how to pour beer or how to get your food. Food was good but seemed like the employees didn't know what was going on. Summary: confusing

Brazilian steakhouse meals, phenomenal pizza, incredible deserts, black light rooms with swings, pinball, and games galore. What more could you possibly want for a great evening? They even have a pour it yourself beer wall. Best $25 steak you'll ever pay for. And a load of games and laughs. I couldn't ask for a better place in the city. It's quite the hidden gem.

Very friendly and inviting ambiance. A great hangout spot on a rainy day, with plenty of board games, card games, beers, and pizza. Staff is wonderful as well. Definitely will be back!

Saw this tap room on Tik Tok so we gave it a shot. Well worth the visit! The Brazilian food was amazing! The whole place was just cool, pin ball machines, glow room & table top games! If you're in the area highly recommend.

I had to come back because of the great service and good vibes. JOSH was absolutely incredible. He gave great recommendations and was extremely attentive to his customers. The swing room is awesome! This place is a must if you're in Seattle!!
