New Kenmore Stoup food special is GREAT. Sticky Sesame Ribs and a mountain of Sesame Olied Slaw. Another delicious, and affordable meal from the kitchen master. The meat falls off the bones, the sauce is semi spicy Asian influenced. Paired with the new very Hazy brew, it was perfection. Well done my friends. Y"all need to get it while you can. Yum!

Had an awesome time at Stoup Kenmore! Met friends on a busy Saturday and snagged a spot upstairs. Loved the vibe—indoor and outdoor seating, even a fire pit! The Toast app made everything so easy: scan, order, and pay right from your phone. No waiting for servers or splitting checks—super convenient! Beer selection was solid, with taster sizes available. The NW Red and All the Berries cider were hits. Food-wise, the pizzas were killer, especially the Crushable with pesto drizzle. Meatball sliders were tender and flavorful, and the crispy cheese on the buns was a nice touch. Great food, drinks, and service—highly recommend!

Super delicious meal and beer here today. Service is cool cause you can order from your phone or the server. The nachos were amazing. The fries and good sauce were amazing. The ceases salad was actually amazing so loved it here basically. I had the Mexican lager and it was amazing too. We will be back!

The venue is really nice, modern, and spacious. 👍 In summer, lots of outdoor seating space. Stoup usually has some very nice brews on tap. Today had a couple only, but no big deal. Stoup is one of the better breweries for true West Coast style IPAs! Keep the faith (。•̀ᴗ-)و ̑̑✧

It's my HH place across from work. Hard to beat a $7 old-fashioned and $7 burger in this economy, and both of them are excellent. Bartenders/waitstaff are always right there. I live in W. Seattle, so since they have a gigantic parking lot it gets an extra 3 stars for not having to park 6 blocks away.

This is my favorite Stoup. They have a great happy hour EVERYDAY 3-5 and GF options on food and drink. The nachos are an amazing deal at $6 which is enough to share or eat the whole thing (as a meal of course). The nachos have a unique flavor and it is spot on. NOT your typical cheese on half of them, come out congealed, tastes like a refrigerator type of bar food. I love sitting at the bar which gives a nice view of everything going on. I’ve never had bad service here. If you sit at the bar, order from any of the attentive bartenders, the app can be confusing especially during happy hour. It must be a great place to work because the faces are familiar and everyone is happy and nice in an I recognize you but I’m not going to make you feel guilty about being here again type of way.

Beer and food place with a well designed and inviting interior and outdoor seating. You can order through their website using three QR code and it's one of the better ordering systems I've seen. The menu has a good selection of drinks and food, we came in after lunch, so unfortunately we were to full to try any larger dishes. The crab chips were a bit too spicy for us, but you can add comments to your order, so I'm pretty sure that can be adjusted.

Winter Lager is really good, smooth, on the maltier and sweeter side and low on bitterness. Has slightly higher ABV for a lager but is great one. Cauliflower wings and pepperoni pizza were good too. Ambiance is great, good vibes, ample seating space. On the pricier side for the food. Good place to try.

We happened to be in the area and searched for breweries and this popped up. Being new to the area I had no idea that Stoup had multiple locations. They still carried that small brewery feel but did have a number of options. This particular location was pretty nice. Nice outdoor area to sit at so you can watch your kids as they run around the concrete area outside of the brewery. Beer was pretty decent. I'm and IPA and sour guy and they had some good drafts. The food was pretty good as well and complimented beer nicely. Loco Moco (5): Great flavor! I mean, how can you go wrong with hamburger patty topped with a fried egg and gravy? Happy Hour Nachos (4): Also pretty good. Good toppings Cauliflower Wings (3): It's basically fried cauliflower. It's good if you like fried cauliflower. Overall, excellent place for some beer or groups or families to hang out.

I generously give 3 stars because we've been here before. Our experience this time was a 1 star silly based on the hostess as we never got seated and left. She told us an hour when we got there, okay that's fair party if 5 at 6pm. 4 tables remained empty the entire time we were there waiting 40 mins.during this time I over heard the hostess tell Different people different things. Like you can order drinks at a specific spot at the bar (would have been nice to know) then we heard her tell someone else there is open seating upstairs again would have been nice to know. So I mentioned the tables are still empty since we got there and she said oh well no one is responding to me to seat them. So we just decided to take our party of 5 and hit up Copperworks.

Beers are great here, recommend trying them out. The food menu needs some more options and a few of the items offered need some flavor kicks-improvements. Still a good place to hang out

Service is great, nice atmosphere. Beer is good and server let me try a couple before I chose a beer. We ordered the Philly cheesesteak and Korean BBQ sliders. Chef is Filipino here and they have lumpia but I decided I was in the mood for sliders. Food and beer both good.

Stopped by for a late lunch and it was meh. Got their special which was a Philly cheesesteak, but it didn't feel like it had much cheese on it and the hoagie was kind of tiny underwhelming. It also didn't come with fries so it was just a really expensive tiny sandwich. Partner got their smash burger, which tasted weird to him, but I don't think it was the beef that was weird. It was the actual sauce that was on it that kind of changed the flavor of it. It almost made it taste kind of sour or just a strange flavor profile. It was also pretty undercooked for a smash burger, a lot more pink than I expected. Their fries were OK although I wish it was just a little bit more battered or fried, they didn't have enough of that crunch.

Stopped by for happy hour. Lots of seating inside and outside Service was friendly and very quick. Our food and drinks came out fast! Our server was super nice. Loco moco was good but a bit on the salty side. Downside was there was a ton of flies inside.

Stoup brewing offers good beer and tasty snacks! I came here with a group of friends and we each had one beer and shared a couple of appetizers. For food, we got the cauliflower wings and lumpia - both were delicious and came with great sauces. I ordered the sandals and flannels hazy IPA and was not disappointed. If you're looking for brewery vibes with a sizeable food menu, look no further!

This is a really nice Stoup location right in Kenmore. What's really cool is that very often you get seaplanes that fly over the brewery which is really fun. The seaplanes are SUPER quite, not like a jet plane The beers are really good here as well as the food. We had the nachos which were really really good as well as a pepperoni pizza. The pizza was also good but the only thing is that it was extremely expensive in my opinion ($28...) just not used to that pricing for pizza... Otherwise a really cool spot with nice indoor and outdoor seating. Very expensive pizza but really good Great nachos Good beer

This place has a great vibe . Ideal for family dinners or a meet up with friends. They do have patio seating. The food is decent. Nachos were great, crispy cauliflower was bland and our entreès were decent. Service was ok except that we had to wait really long to get our bill! Kids menu is ok-ish. There is a decent selection of beers but I did not find anything like a light ,crisp blue moon-ish style one nor a non-dry cider variety.People in my group mentioned that their IPAs were decent. Overall a good place to hang out.

Stopped by Stoup for a quick drink and it was good. The service was a little slow but it was a pretty busy Monday evening so it was nothing unexpected. The food smelled great but unfortunately we didn't order any because we had dinner waiting for us at home. We are looking forward to returning for happy hour and trying more things off the menu. What really stood out to me was the $5 happy hour menu section. When I saw that, I texted my best friend immediately and said that we need to come and try happy hour. Looking forward to coming back again!

Cute location in Kenmore. Plenty of outdoor seating, great on a beautiful warm sunny day! Service was good. There are some fountains nearby where the kids can play. I had the jungle bird cocktail which was pretty good. We ordered nachos for the table but agreed that it was too spicy and the chips too oily. The chickpea salad was a popular choice on our table and people enjoyed this!

Came in on a Weds. and didn't realize that the farmers market was going on so parking was a bit tough. The place was packed but we got in quickly. Our server was very friendly and you have the option to order on Toast or wait for someone to come to the table. We both decided to get smash burgers and fries. I asked for a side of ranch and it was an odd color/taste for ranch and $2 so I'd pass on that. The burger was delicious but I took off the sweet pickles. Waffle fries were good also. I also had the citrus IPA which was refreshing. I'd come back again and try the pizza next time.

Got 1 growler of German lager. 30$. The beer was good. I probably will return. The server was chill helping me and he filled the growler up completely no head.

First off, long time STOUP patron and that won't change. Just a bit of quality control I hope finds its way up. We got take out (Sure shot and kids pizza). Got it home and it was pretty burned. The pizza was almost a throw away to be honest but we had to eat something. Kids wanted nothing to do with it and my wife and I choked it down. Please find a way to create a standard of what is and is not exceptable coming out of the oven STOUP. Paying $30 per pizza has to come with a much higher expectation from you and your customers. Please take this message as quality control and hope we meet again soon.

Fantastic people and delicious beer! It is pretty loud in here and not exactly a place to roll in on your own. It's all delicious, it's just very lonely when going in alone and almost too loud when going in with friends.

Pros - beer, aesthetic, kids coloring menu, fries Cons - scattered host, poor ordering app, slow service, food, live music choice Deets - We arrived and waited in line for ~10 minutes to be seated. The host was overwhelmed and said it would be a while. We asked about sitting outside; he said he hadn't realized there were seats out there and sat us. A guy was playing an odd selection of live music outside the entrance, a genre we couldn't pin down. There aren't servers, just a toast app to order. We tried for ~15 minutes to load various parts of the menu and thought we were in the clear before the app ended with "failed to fetch" after putting in our card info. We waited another ~10 min to order at the counter and paid while there. Beers were brought out after ~10 min. The mosaic fresh hop was tasty - I'd get it again. My partner liked the Citra IPA as well. Neither spectacular, but solid beers. Food came after another ~20 minutes. The sloppy joe grilled cheese had a really nice toast of the bread but everything else left a lot to be desired - bland meat and sauce, not a ton of cheese. The corn soup was also meh, reminiscent of watery corn purée that could have used more corn flavor. The smash burger meat was over done on the edges. The redeeming part of the sandwich was the pickles. The fries were the only food item I'd order again - they were crispy, salty, tasty. Would not come back here to eat, but it could be a fun stop for a beer on a night much less busy.

My group came too close to closing time and didn't want to order any food, so we just stuck with drinks. However, I will come back to try their food. The cocktails were just okay, I think next time I'll just do beer. So you order on your phone and you also check out on your phone. Some people see this as a con because there's not a lot of human interaction between the customer and staff. On the other hand people find it as a pro because you get your own privacy and you're not being interrupted. The staff was friendly and provided our drinks quickly and did answer questions we had. The parking is okay, I think there was about 10 parking spots on the side of the business. There's also street parking.

In the mood for nachos and these hit the spot! The "small" was definitely enough for 1 and would be a solid appetizer for 2, maybe 3 depending on appetite. The add-on chorizo was delicious! Ordering online at the table via "Toast" was simple; the app was smartly organized and user-friendly. I went during dinner time on a sunny Saturday so the wait time was at least 30 minutes. I skipped that by opting to eat at the bar. I tried the "Dark and Stormy" cocktail which had a good amount of kick to it. The staff were friendly and attentive but not annoyingly so. I could see 1 big screen with a random sporting event on; otherwise the decor is standard brewery-comfy. Lots of parking but it also fills up. Outdoor seating is available and the play area out front would be perfect for kids. Prices as posted on their site.

Great brewery in Kenmore! Came here on back to back days with large groups of 8 and 16, and both days were pleasant experiences. They utilize an awesome QR code system where everyone can use an individual code to open up their own tab, and food/drinks can be ordered straight from your phone to your table. We found this system to be ultra efficient and we never had to leave our seats for drinks. The food was also pretty good. I ordered the salmon rice bowl and this was surprisingly delicious. Salmon cooked perfectly and tons of flavors in the bowl. $25 may be a bit high but to me it was worth it. For drinks they mostly have beers and wines, only 4 cocktails available. They also do not serve alcohol straight up as their cocktails are premixed with alcohol. Service was solid, everyone we interacted with was friendly for the most part and they worked fast and efficiently. It's a pretty great brewery that I would love to return to!

Really great place to stop in for a beer and a bite to eat. We came on Sunday afternoon and it was pretty busy but no problem getting a table. Service was good and the food was really delicious! The roasted beets are SO GOOD! We also shared a pizza and it was wonderful.

Stoup is now one of our favorite places to go with the kids! Outside of Stoup is a big area for the kids to run around and huge rocks to play on. There's also a coffee shop on the other side of the big area outside that we have yet to try. At Stoup there is spacious seating and great staff! It's an "order and pay" experience through Toast Tab on your phone, different than a normal services restaurant, but it allows you to eat and pay without waiting for someone to close out your transaction. It's easy for groups too since there's a QR code per seat at each table that allows you to create your own tab or pay with a group. We've been there a few times, but all the food has been great so far. We've ordered the Brass Monkey pizza (extremely good crust and flavors), the kids cheese pizza, shishito peppers, smash burger, waffle fries, nachos (with carnitas), kids smash burger and the grilled cheese and crispy pancetta sandwich. The beer is good too, lots of options! They also have dessert, like soft serve, but they were sold out when we went last time. Parking was easy, there's street parking everywhere.

We sat in the outdoor patio area next to the community water fountain. The area was full of families with small children. They looked like they were having a great time. Nice place for couples with young kids. Kids can have fun and the adults can still have some of the brew pub with friends experience. Could be a bit frenetic if you're just expecting a beer and a burger at a brew pub. Service was decent. Food choices were limited. We had a couple of salads (the only two on the menu) and they had lots of potential but not executed well. They were mediocre. Beer was good and lots of choices.

Yelp
Every time I come to this part of town I go here I really enjoy it the menu is cool it's got your staples and outside the box stuff too which when I'm in the mood I love the option I haven't been disappointed yet. It's kid friendly my son loves it. I don't drink so can't talk on that but my friends seem to love it but they could just be alcoholics lol service has always been good. Safe bet for you and family.

Received wrong sandwich. We ordered pizza and chicken sandwich (with the sauce on side) + fries. Never opened the wrapping until we got home.. come to find out they gave me a burger instead. No big deal, Drive back and they correct the order and gave me the chicken sandwich. Get home and open it fully to eat and it is absolutely DRENCHED in the sauce i requested on the side. The sandwhich isn't even edible at this point with the buckets of sauce they put on there with a tad bit of pink still in the chicken, which I noticed after I bit it. Almost as if they did it purposely. Just awful because these are the same places that still ask you to tip for takeout nope will not be returning both meals and pizza sucked for the price

Walked in with the intention of getting a Poke bowl because it was one of the few gluten free options on the menu. I then realized that it didn't mention fish. I asked the waiter if it had fish and responded in a rude tone saying that poke is a way of chopping food. Not fish. (FALSE, but anyway) I brushed it off and asked if I could get a burger with lettuce buns and again, no. I asked if anything on the menu could be made gluten free. The server responded in a smart tone, "The GF on the menu means gluten free." I have been gluten free for ten years now. The experience was insulting and I do NOT recommend unless you want bad customer service.

Yelp
Ok, this place is tight. It looks like from opening they've changed their menu options and the food is bomb AF now. Ordered the carnitas nachos, bulgogi sliders & a kids grilled cheese. Ooooo they were so bomb. The kids grilled cheese was gourmet af! & the waffle fries are still good. Definitely a neighborhood fave.

Yelp
Crispy Chicken Sando is not crispy. Just a reheated chicken tender on a bun...for $18. $1.00 extra to sub the fries for a house salad which is just ten small piece of romaine and two tomatoes drowned in dressing. Staff were friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the food is less than good.

Lin, that's what went wrong. You're going to want to sit down and grab a cold beer to read this one. Without this experience, it would be 5 stars. We've been here many times and have always had a great experience with staff, food and beverages. I have no complaints with anything nor anyone, aside from Lin. It was a gorgeous day and we were enjoying our beverages in the nice weather. We hadn't been there for 35 minutes total. Lin asked us if we were ready for another round, we weren't quite ready yet as I still had to about 1/3 of my beverage left so we responded not yet, however, Lin let us know that there was a long line of people waiting to be seated. Not only was there NO LINE, there were empty tables. We were caught off guard and processing that she's pretty much telling us to leave. It hits her that she responded unprofessionally, so she began to backpedal by offering us to stay longer and take our time, but the damage had been done and it left a bad taste in my mouth. I asked her for her name, to which she hesitated for a few seconds and said "Deli". I doubled checked the correct pronunciation of her name and she confirmed it was "Deli". I'll also note that she had a great rapport with the table beside us and I believe it's because the lady at the table did her hair or knew about her liking red hair. It could be because they also had food at their table and we only had beverages. I went inside to speak with the manager to inform her of what happened. The manager agreed that she, too, would be upset if that had happened to her. The manager was great and I should've taken her name, but "Deli", aka as Lin, had us feeling unwelcome and uncertain if we're coming back. We left without me finishing my beverage that still had about a 1/3 to ¼ left. Their cider was delish, by the way. But Lin? She's a hard pass. She's a poor representation of the Stoup brand. It only takes one person to ruin the experience.

Great place! Efficient staff and really good food! Brussels sprouts are sooo good and their pizza is as well. They rotate their menu's so not always the same items. Nice outdoor space and right near a splash pad type of set up for the little kids in the summer. ( nearby coffee shop) Only issue, am not a beer drinker and they only have a few cocktails on tap. wish they had more of them!

Bri G.

Yelp
Pretty neat little place with tasty food! I sat at the bar with my husband but am excited to come back with the kids as it is a very family friendly place. The salad was absolutely delicious and service was quick. The gentleman working the bar area was not very friendly, which turned me off, but maybe he was just having a bad day. I'm looking forward to coming back!

Great place to meet up and get drinks and food. A couple of vegan options, and they usually take away and add new things. I wish they would offer a vegan pizza option, hint hint. They have beer, wine (love the sparkling rose), and mixed drinks as well. Check it out!

Richard G.

Stoup's people are the best. I love to sit and enjoy their wide variety of brews while chatting with the staff.

Somewhat expensive for the value of the food. Excellent service, though. We will most likely not return just due to the price point.

Had to meet someone to drop off an item for sale and this seemed like a great place to do business. Granted that it was nearing closing time on a Sunday evening, so the crowd was a bit light. The new mask mandate doesn't kick in until tomorrow, but it seemed that most folks were socially distancing and the staff were fully masked. Good on y'all. Picked up a 4 pack of their stout in cans. Growler service is available but unfortunately no crowlers. Seemed like a cool place to hang out with the usual bar fare. They also had soft serve ice cream on the menu! Prices seemed a bit high to me, but I haven't eaten in the area in a year or so. Will need to revisit to try their food.

We rented the Kenmore location's loft for a wedding rehearsal dinner and it did not disappoint! The space itself was stylish, clean and well maintained, and the staff that served our drinks and brought out our pre-ordered food were excellent. The drink selection was fantastic and the food was delicious as well (we mostly just had pizzas and salads). It was the perfect location for a laidback rehearsal dinner. One thing I would like to point out to any future guests is that the loft does not have an elevator and is therefore not wheelchair accessible, or accessible to older folks that can't go up and down stairs easily. But if that's not an issue for your group, I highly recommend it!

Todd O.

Yelp
The food was good and I personally like their self-serve ordering style. The wait staff was mostly helpful and easy to find floating around, to get plates and to-go boxes. Food prices are a little high (the kids menu is adult food at lower prices; consider utilizing it), but that's mostly expected anymore. High enough this is going to be a "once in a very long while" place. The real issue is that they default you to 20% tip for staff that really only exists to bring your food out, and they calculate the tip *after tax*. Watch your bill, calculate your own 15% tip pre-tax, and put it in the "custom tip" field. And remember, that's a custom dollar amount, not a percentage. Don't go putting 15 in the field thinking it's a percentage when you intended to tip $9 on your oversized bill. At least it's better than the Seaplane place that was here before. Families are clearly welcome here and not shoved off into a dark, stuffy corner. Lots of families there around 6pm. Edited to add: I dropped another star because the Toast service they use for self-serve ordering and paying *will* spam you. There was no option to opt out of non-receipt emails, and sure enough the next day there was Stoup in my inbox. My bad for not using a throwaway spam address, but also shame on Stoup for bad behavior with no notice or opt-out option at signup. I don't care that, "Toast is not Stoup!" They use the service, they get dinged for the service's bad behavior. Find a better service.

If you are looking for an actual brewery, this isn't it. All the breweries I've ever been to have had open seating. If you are used to that, as well, just a fair warning that you need to go inside to be seated. I found a spot, sat down, talked to a server (who only asked what I'd like to order and didn't mention anything about needing to see a hostess to be served), ordered food on the app, and was finally approached by another server who told me that my food was already being made but that I had to move to a barrel because there were people "in line" somewhere. Y'all did the best you could, but please put some "please come inside to be seated" signs out. Would save everyone a lotta heart ache lol. P.S. there were open tables the entire time I was there and as I was leaving. So, I'm not exactly sure why I was moved. Staff, food, and beer were good otherwise.

Fun and lively Kenmore outpost of our Ballard favorite! We were in Kenmore for the weekend and wanted to check this location out since we love Stoup Brewing and are actually having our rehearsal dinner next year at the original location. This one is definitely more of a " brewpub " than a brewery. You have to give your name upon arrival and they show you to a table. In our case, a table wasn't available for 30 minutes so we went across the courtyard to Diva Espresso to wait. There were lots of families with small children out enjoying the sun. This is definitely a great family spot for those who have little ones. Once we received a text indicating that our table was ready, we were surprised to see that the " table " was really just a bar-style outdoor counter with bar stools. This meant that we were sharing close quarters with another customer seated there. It was a bit uncomfortable given COVID--even though we were outside. It just felt like a weird solution to cram people together and call it a " table. " On to the food: The menu includes burgers and pizza (uses local flour too) as well as other dishes like salads and sides. We ordered two burgers and two sides of waffle fries along with our flight of IPAs. We loved everything! The burgers were juicy and the sauce they topped them with was BOMB. It was almost like a wasabi-horseradish mix? We also loved the fries (came nice and hot) and all the beers we tried. They have a good selection here, for sure! One more thing before I forget: looks like they allow events in this location too (I'm sure smaller right now due to the circumstances!) but we saw a baby shower happening upstairs in a private area. It seems like a great option for an intimate event space.

I want to love this place so much! We absolutely loved Seaplane. Their food and service were incredible. Unfortunately Stoup does not fill their shoes. I really hesitate to write a negative review during COVID, but this is now my third visit at Stoup. I've always enjoyed their drinks, but the food is almost inedible. First of all, their service model is unique at best. It's all online, which is cool, but I'm not sure how people who aren't tech savvy navigate the menu and online ordering. The online platform has very brief descriptions, leaving a lot of room for questions and interpretation. If you're lucky you'll be able to flag someone down who can fill in the gaps. The food is very marginal. Looks pretty in a picture but most things I've had are hard to eat. I had a square slice of pizza that I couldn't fit in my mouth, and it was too hard and stale to gracefully fork and knife it. We've tried their shareable fried chicken meal, and they do not provide proper utensils or individual plates. There was no room for bones or dirty napkins on the combined plate, so they just ended up in a soggy nasty pile on the table. The chicken was soggy, the hush puppies were bland and the Mac you better eat fast because once it cools it turns into a brick of cheese. So disappointing. We spent the ride home reminiscing about Seaplane and how much we miss it. Come to Stoup for the drinks, go elsewhere for your meal.

Talk about a great location! Stoup Kenmore is everything I want, and more out of a taproom! Their expansive tap list, for starters! They rotate beers quite frequently, as I've noticed every time I visit, they have new beers on tap to try! My husband and I like to try ALL beers, so we always go for samples. I will say that their sample prices are a little outrageous (hence the 4 star out of 5 review). In my opinion, samples should be $3.50 or less. Unless of course there's a specialty stout, or sour. Our last visit, we didn't have any food so when I was closing out the tab, I realized how pricey the he samples were. The burgers and sandwiches don't come with fries which I thought was a bummer. I think all burger fare should come with a side. They charge $3 if you want fries; or $4.50 for a salad. Pizza slices look delicious- but I wish they had more selection than pepperoni or cheese. I'd love to see a Hawaiian, or a meat lovers slice added to the "slice"menu! Overall, I do love to visit Stoup! The atmosphere and experience is always great.

I was very impressed with this new location and the ambience is great!!! The food was so good and I was so surprised to see some negative reviews. There was a huge group of us and no one complained. We were seated outside since we had a dog and they had heat lamps to keep us warm. I didn't care for the online ordering especially when we had a huge group and the food didn't come out all at the same time. I'm not a fan of that cause one person is done with their meal and another person just gets their meal. I know it was busy and each table had their own table number when ordering and we had four tables. Just not a fan of that. I like the old school way and everyone gets their food at the same time. The beer is good and many choices to pick from. The staff was super great too even though it was a very busy night for them. We will be back!

This place may be a bit too high tech for me. I sat at the bar. Since it is a brewery I would have liked to get some beer recommendations, but there was no interaction with a human possible prior to ordering. You have to order from your cell phone, manually type in your credit card info (also a hassle), then someone drops off your drink. Same with food - order on your phone and someone drops it off. You can't ask for advice, or recommendations. Food and beer was fine but it was just not a nice experience.

Update: Within minutes of this post, the general manager reached out, apologized and comped our dinner. Her immediate response, apology and total reimbursement was unexpected and generous. She brought this from a bummer experience to an impressive recovery. Adding another star. Thank you, Stoup. I hope to give you another try. Original 2 stars: Take out experience was disappointing. They forgot the added on fries and dipping sauce that they charge additional for. When I realized this, I called to inquire I was told " you can come pick it up or I can reimburse you..." There was never an "I'm sorry". I chose reimbursement ( didnt realize at the time that the sauce was missing). Joshua said " ok!" He was about to hang up. I asked if I would get an updated receipt or notice of the change in charge. He thought so. I didn't feel confident about his response. It sounded like they were busy when he picked up. That is nice to hear. What I was most disappointed in was the lack ownership and no apology. I did tell him that i was disappointed and he said "he knew and will rely message." Later I realized the sauce I paid extra for was also omitted, but it's not worth the call back. I also tipped them 20% at the time I placed the order. Disappointing. Regarding the food, the fried chicken was very moist, has a mild flavor and is heavy on the breading. Mac and cheese has a good kick to it., very creamy. Hush puppies were hard, couldn't cut them and very chewy. In past orders, I'm a big fan of their salads and appetizer snacks. Ive always been a supporter of Stoup. Went to the grand opening. Love the redo from Seaplane. Good variety of offerings. Great atmosphere and easy to order and pay with limited interaction. Friendly staff. Great outdoor space. But I've heard a lot of negative reviews about their service- food didn't arrive, poor follow up and inflated prices. Unfortunately I experienced that tonight along with very underwhelming food. Bummer.

I sort of hate this restaurant, lol. Was excited to get another restaurant in Kenmore, but this ain't it. Ambience is pleasant. Staff is amiable I suppose, but they don't spend more than 17 total seconds with you (I actually counted!), since they've outsourced all the ordering and payment-info work onto you, the lucky customer, via cumbersome phone app. But you still better tip the beanie-enthusiast hips employees! At a rate of $47/minute of work. Food is fine (expensive as hell, OBVIOUSLY). Appetizers cost about $3/bite. Burger was tasty--very similar to a Dick's Deluxe (just $15 more expensive, nbd). Nachos cost $24 lololol. But whatcha gonna do. Not enough competition nearby. I reckon.

Great brewery, but it's usually packed. Long wait times when it's busy, great food and beer though!

Enjoyed our visit here on Father's Day 2022. Food was good, Smash-burger & fries was outstanding, chopped salad my wife had was good but not chopped, a lot of whole leaves and way to many garbanzo/chi chi beans. Beer was awesome, had the German Pilsner and Mosaic Pale.

I stopped in here for a business meeting a few weeks back and found it to be a really enjoyable laid back atmosphere worth some great noms. It's in a super convenient location in Kenmore and right next to a fun fountain that kids love to play in. They have both indoor and outside seating. The inside has a nice casual atmosphere where you order your brew and food from the counter and they bring it out to you. They have a great menu labeled for allergens and everyone i spoke with was very knowledgeable about the menu when I questioned on gluten free items. We ordered a few snacks to share and really enjoyed the delicious Lemongrass lime peanuts (they were way better than I even expected), the fabulous loaded nachos, the gluten free chicken wings, and a really great salad with chicken. The drinks and food were all excellent and I was so happy to have so many gf options. We'll definitely be back again soon for more of those delicious wings and nachos!
