Pike Pub

"When Pike Brewing launched in 1989 (then called Pike Place Brewery), it was among only a few independent craft breweries in Seattle. The rest of the city has long since caught up, but Pike remains a pillar of the community. Some of its beers can be found in stores, but if you haven’t visited the labyrinthian brewery next to the market yet, put it on the list. Not only is its maximalist beer ephemera a wonder of its own, but the brews themselves somehow taste better below street level. Pike has a few other locations now, but consider this one a must." - Brianna Gunter

"Pike Brewing announced this week that it would no longer be producing beer at its location in the Pike Place Market area and would instead be brewing in a new SoDo facility." - Harry Cheadle

"Come to The Pike Pub for American gastopub classics: hand-formed burgers, unique pizzas, fresh salads, and grass fed Harlow beef burgers, all carefully prepared and reflective of Northwest tastes. Your friendly and knowledgeable server can recommend Pike beers from our diverse line up, local wines, ciders, and spirits to pair with your meal."

"People come to Pike Brewing to duck away from the crowds of Pike Place Market, enjoy one of the world’s most extensive collections of beer memorabilia, and to get a full view of Pike’s active brew kettle. But they also come for the beer and a satisfying food menu that includes crab chowder, pretzels, burgers, and pizza. There are also several vegan and vegetarian options, like the mushroom veggie burger. You can’t go wrong with the Space Needle IPA as a crisp counterpart for any of the bites. If you prefer people-watching over Post Alley, head upstairs to the cozy Pike Fish Bar for fresh-shucked oysters and steamed manilla clams with Pike Place Ale." - Brianna Gunter

"Others receiving $5 million or more in RRF money in the Seattle area include Pike Brewing." - Gabe Guarente
