I've been to Lantern a couple of times to meet friends. They have a lot of tables inside, but depending on the time of day, they may fill up. Also note that the place is kid friendly and the stroller and kid contingent tends to dominate the place earlier. If you want to avoid that, that grouo tends to clear out towards 7, consequently freeing up tables.About the beer: when I go to a brewery, especially in the PNW, I tend to eyeball their IPA selection. In the two times I've been to Lantern, what I've noticed is that they haven't had an IPA selection. That isn't terrible in itself, and it kind of forces me to expand my choices. I've had pales and sours (which they had a couple of the times I've gone), and had their gose the last time, which all of us enjoyed.For food, there's usually a truck. Last time was a nice Mexican truck, which was really quite tasty.Parking sucks. Arriving around 6:30 increases your chances because the folks with kids and their SUVs tend to be heading out at that time.

Cheap flights but not a fan of any of the 10 beers I tried

Stopped in for a pint and was not disappointed. And they are dog friendly!

I stayed in a hotel room last night and it happened to be right next to this brewery so I thought I'd check it out.I got the 10 beer sampler so I could try all their beers and it was only $20, not terrible. So I tried each one and hung out in their decently large space. The abbey double was really good! The rest were fine, nothing totally outstanding to my specific flavor palette.I noticed a ton of fruit flies flying around which was annoying. Then I noticed they kept flying into my beers and drowning themselves in there. Probably not the worst way to go but absolutely not ideal for wanting to drink my beers. I told the server and she didn't seem to be surprised or care so I just left with 10 beers that I only took a sip out of each. Very disappointing experience.

Fantastic local brewery. Creative, delicious beers and a great family and dog friendly spot. Owners are absolutely wonderful. We love Lantern.

The beer is fantastic and the vibes are chill. They bring in some fantastic food trucks and have board games. Everything you could possibly want from a neighborhood brewery.

As usual - 7/20 - great place and good beer - cannot miss the stout, the BBQ truck was the best - best I ever had, Smokestack Lightning BBQ !!!!!!!. But, may be it was a bad day, the person behind the tap, was very curt, like she was forced to work there. Regardless, 5 ⭐️+ and great place and fresh beer

Local brewery great for social gatherings. Food choices are limited to whichever Food Truck is onsite for the day, but the drinks are plentiful & very affordable. We liked the fruity scents and really enjoyed the Ch'Boum for its cherry nodes & Pomegranate Sidra for its slight tartness. Aside from drinks, Lantern is dog-friendly and has outdoor seating; all the more to love amongst us locals
Great beer and awesome atmosphere. Beers are fun and flavorful. Also dog friendly which is great!

I love this place. It’s always chill and I love the beer selections because funky Belgians are my jam (beers, I can’t speak to the people). Seems to be a popular after school stop for parent+children.

Nice quiet brewery in North Seattle off Aurora. Good rotation of food trucks and on Wednesdays they have a novel board game rental vendor there. Beers are not the normal IPA/Pale you get around Seattle so it's a nice, tasty change.
