King Leroy

First time at King Leroy and overall pretty good! The Seattle Dog and Chopped Cheese both had great flavor, though the chopped cheese definitely needs sturdier bread—it fell apart quick. Jalapeño hush puppies were solid, just could’ve used more cheese. Wanted to try the wings but $18 for 6 felt a little steep, so I’ll be back during happy hour to grab them at a better price. Flavor-wise though, they’re on the right track and I’d come back to try more!

Stumbled into King Leroy while on a solo day running errands. Sat at the bar which was extremely comfortable and inviting with comfortable chairs. The bartender was super friendly and served up a great dirty martini! Ordered the Jalapeno cheddar Hush Puppies- which if I being honest I found salty and a bit undercooked. Definitely not a bad experience overall however, would definitely return!

Giving this place one star seems too generous. On a visit to Seattle we wandered into this place in the hopes of getting some food and drink. Sure, we found seats at the bar, but after that we were completely ignored by the TWO people behind the bar (while others were getting served without issue). We eventually got our first drink, and then were once again ignored while everyone else was getting refills and food. At one point one of the staff spent a ridiculously long time replacing the letters on the tap list board instead of possibly checking to see if ANYONE (we were literally directly behind him) needed any drinks/food. The service quality was non-existent, and the overall attitude seemed to scream pretentious unless you were a regular. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! There are SO many other genuinely friendly and welcoming establishments in Seattle there is really no reason to go here imo.

Perfect comfortable place to visit if you’re in the neighborhood. Good positive vibes. Friendly employees and patrons. Modern low key hip hop music was playing on this visit. Burger place next door as well but they also have their own food.

Yummy cocktails! Definitely on the pricey side but this place is a vibe. If you don’t get seating near the front at the bar, there’s more seating on the Great State Burger side.

Good dive bar. We went on a Wednesday and not crowded but it’s cool. The wings are good and nachos were cool. Just a spot to check out while on travel to Seattle.

Right in the heart of Amazon SLU, King Leroy has a trying to dive bar feel to it, except it's clean, has huge natural light windows and some interesting cocktails. Didn't try any of the food here but it looked good. Bar service is quick and attentive. One tip: it may look big but the acoustics of this place is loud, so keep that in mind.

Came here for dinner and drinks and it was super chill! The bartender was cool and friendly and the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend the hush puppies!

Food was meh. Service is super slow they are so understaffed so for service they tell you to go wait in line at the bar for drinks when you get have a table. Lots of tech bros but pretty basic.

We came to King Leroy for happy hour which ends at 6p. The wings are really good. I got my wings with the buffalo sauce and it was great. It's only 6 swings, so we also got the tater tots. The tots are decent, but not super filling - probably wouldn't order them again with just two people, but would be good to get for the table with a lot of people. Great value especially at happy hour. Quick and easy, order at the bar and they bring food to you.

Came here on my lunch, got extremely slow service at the bartop. Ordered a really huge and bland chicken sandwich. I wasn't in a hurry at all and it still felt like forever to get my bill and a box!

True what they say, service isn't particularly friendly unless they know you. But otherwise, a chill spot to post up for a beer or some bar food in an otherwise very tech overrun area. You can order a burger from next door and bring it over. A+ Seattle decor.

I went to King Leroy on a weekend evening, and every weekend there is an all day happy hour. This means that the chicken wings and tater tots (along with cauliflower wings) are half off, and I ordered the chicken wings with buffalo sauce and tater tots with habanero honey sauce. I thought the wings were nice and crispy but still retained good flavor and were juicy. The buffalo sauce seemed to have more of a vinegar flavor, so I wasn't the biggest fan of it. The tater tots were also crispy, and I enjoyed the habanero honey because it was more sweet than spicy. I really appreciated how the food came with moist towelettes. King Leroy has a very casual setting, but it's still good for conversation. You order at the bar counter and can sit down at one of the booths or barstools. There is limited booth seating, but the barstools at the counter were comfortable and had back support. It is 21+ and you're expected to show your ID at the bar counter right when you walk in.

Of all the pub style places in the area (I.e., SLU, Belltown, etc.) I have liked this one the best by a long shot. They have a diner feel with the decor like the vinyl seats and jukebox, but still modern enough. Very clean and tidy. The HH specials were also better than usual with the half priced food and several discounted drinks. Many NA cocktails too! We thought the food was well done and super reasonable with the HH prices. Lots of vegetarian options and vegan ones. The cauliflower wings were a HUGE portion like they gave me a whole head of cauliflower so definitely for sharing or hungry hungry hippos occasions. Mine was the latter so I was happy and enjoyed the honey habeñero sauce. The bartender was super friendly and helpful and checked IDs at the door, which was nice too. Also this spot is dog friendly indoors and we enjoyed greeting our fellow pooch patron on the way out. Would definitely come back!

Cool space. Yucky food. It's an order at the bar type spot so nothing against the bartender who also brought our food out she was friendly. Had to go back to the order line for a knife for the concrete hush puppies... we were so disappointed because we were looking forward to them.

Favorite work happy hour spot. It has the good food, great bartenders, and decent prices I want from my favorite dive bar, and it's in SLU!!

Stopped by for a quick dinner while staying in the area. Atmosphere was pretty good. Food was mediocre. Service was kind of lacking no follow up on how things were.

Cozy small bar in the Amazon area that serves decent food and good drinks. Best of all, if you work at Amazon, this place can connect to the Amazon WPA WiFi, so if you're oncall, you won't have to connect to a VPN and can work directly from the WiFi which is super convenient! The prices are also not too high so you won't feel too bad ordering a lot of stuff during a team outing. The best drink I tried was the Pina Colada. It was their rotating slushy cocktail so they might not have it anymore, but if they do, you have to try it. It was super refreshing and I barely tasted any alcohol. I mostly just got the sweet and tangy pineapple flavor with hints of the aromatic flavor of coconut. The chicken wings here are also pretty good. They came out really hot and crispy so you know they're fresh. I wish they were tossed in sauce instead of sauce coming on the side but otherwise it was a solid chicken wing. Most of the food and drinks here were solid, nothing outstanding but still pretty good. Overall, a nice place to come during a team happy hour.

Try their new pumpkin spice margarita slushy while it's in season Great bar with lovely staff and tasty food! Also they ARE open on weekends, disregard what Apple Maps says

This location is one of 10+ restaurants owned by Nathan Yaeger, who strongly thinks that companies with offices downtown should force their workers to come in, even when those people live far away and are perfectly capable of doing the same work from home: https://www.geekwire.com/2024/businesses-around-amazon-hq-are-bustling-a-year-after-tech-giants-return-to-office-mandate/ Being forced to commute somewhere you do not need to be is effectively a tax, it is a reduction in income, it also causes a ton of traffic and pollution for everyone living in Seattle and the immediate area. It actively makes everyone's lives worse EXCEPT rich business owners like Nathan, who advocate for other businesses to subsidize their profits by FORCING people to come to where their business is. They lobby politicians to make that happen. Rather than work to make the area around their businesses affordable to live, they want "tourists" from outside the city who they can charge more Why do businesses get to advocate for taxing ordinary customers, and reducing their income, and expect to be rewarded with more business? Why should I watch Nathan try to steal from me, and then happily patronize his business? I will not patronize ANY business owned by Nathan Yaeger, and I hope others join me.

Great spot with a chill vibe. It was busy without being too loud and we had no issue with timely service. The food is supplied by great state burgers next door and we ordered the nachos to share. Very tasty queso on top! The bartenders were totally cool with us requesting multiple dipping sauces to try. The habanero honey was a fave! The cocktails were yummy and pretty average Seattle prices. $11-15 bucks a drink. We will definitely be back after work!

Stopped by after work for happy hour and was very pleased! Servers are very friendly! Loved the option to sit outside and enjoy Seattle summers!

Great Bar, Great Atmosphere, Good Wings. The wings are like a fried chicken style. I had them with the Buffalo Sauce. Also had a Boundary Bay Red Irish Ale that was great.

expensive horrible food for small portions. I ordered the chicken wings and the breading was so dense and dry. Did not taste fresh at all. I don't typically write Yelp reviews but this place was a big disappointment.

From the location to the staff to the food: it doesn't get much better! I went with the chicken wings as they had it front and center on the menu, and they were whole wings, buttermilk fried. This isn't your moms bar food by any means. And the rosemary lemonade was house made. It's nice to have NA options

Awesome little bar--super nice staff. Beer selection is solid, and the food is great. Really nice atmosphere, SLU-local crowd. I think this place is (currently) really under-appreciated--it's usually not too crowded, and I think that'll probably change as folks figure out it's a cool place.

Unfortunately, this was SUPER disappointing. My friends and I had high hopes since this is a Renee restaurant, however, the food was mediocre at best. We were expecting elevated bar food, and it didn't meet the mark. The fried chicken was bland, the artichoke dip came with a basket full of broken chips, and the jalapeño poppers just tasted... off. Overall the food was bland and lacking flavor/seasoning. Hoping this place can turn it around. Really wanted to like it!

Stopped in for lunch because all other restaurants in the area were booked with reservations. No wait here! Ordered the taco salad and it was soo refreshing on a hot day. Quick service and great food. Restaurant is small, sat along the window bar and got to people watch a bit as I enjoyed my meal.

Great food, love the nachos and Buffalo cauliflower. Come here often for hawks games and can't wait to see the scene for Mariners season!

Great ambiance but I have to be honest...the food was terrible. I ordered the 3 wings and tots. The tots were fine but the wings were a big disappointment. The chicken tasted old and they were very tough...almost as if they were not fully cooked but they were. This was probably because they were very big wings that probably would have tasted better if they were cooked longer. Lastly, the wings also had way too much breading. I tried my best to eat them but I could only eat one. Because of the size, my recommendation would be to brine the wings for 3-4 hours to tenderize them and add flavor.

horrible. bartender completely rude. asked about drink selections looking for an after dinner drink. he was not friendly and was very short with us and rude. definitely won't walk back in this place.

Came here on a whim for the Seahawks game, so food wasn't at the top of my list. But surprisingly, I think I may have found the best nachos I've had in the city. A couple things stood out for me- For one, they used a combo of regular shredded cheese but also used queso sauce! 2nd, instead of piled high on a plate, they went attention to detail here, and it's served on a rectangular tray with all the chips spread out evenly. So each chip or bite is all the ingredients together, instead of cheese and meat here, only veggies on another chip, one chip too soggy, etc. It was a very nice touch. The other thing I tried was the fried cauliflower wings. Amazing flavor and crunch. Paired with buffalo wing sauce it was incredible. I go through stretches where I try to limit meat consumption, this is high on my list of things I'll come by to eat when I want to splurge but stay veggie only. (I didn't ask if it's Vegan, so make sure you ask if that's your goal). Overall, great experience, staff was great, nice location across the street from the Amazon Globes, I'll definitely be back to try some more stuff, (Customers near me said the Fried Chicken sandwich was very good too).
