Great, iconic place downtown with drinks and some food. I go there to see bands and it can get loud in there (bring ear plugs ?).There's also a hot dog vendor outside for that late night Seattle Dog.There's a 3% card fee if you pay be credit card.

Great place. The food was a bit lacking. My baked potato resembled a puck and was overpriced. The drinks are poured well, so that's good. One of the stalls in the ladies doesn't lock, so when you're here, bring a bathroom buddy!The bands that played were awesome ? great lighting and sound.Phantom Racer comeback show!

Loved the atmosphere and the music in this place, but what would you expect of a place with so much history?

Half dive bar, half music venue with lots of history. Menu was pretty small and missing some classic bar food staples, but the food we got was pretty good and draft list had some solid options.

The Central is not only an iconic spot in Seattle, it's also my favorite local bar. I always feel welcome here, the staff are all fantastic and wonderful. It's a great place to check out new and upcoming bands or just catch up with friends. It will definitely remain my go to spot for as long as it's open.
