Nice beers, had the ciders tonight, which were pleasant

Great, but pretty expensive. One beer and one wine (with tip and tax) is $24. I get it, independent owner and the micro brewery competition is tough. But the prices make it hard to come more often.

TLDR: Not dog or baby friendly. Would recommend families heading to ounces or west Seattle brewery or future primitive instead for a more relaxed family friendly experience.We used to love this place and came all the time for trivia but now that we have a baby (15 month old) it’s no longer possible. Our 15 month old was walking up and down the ramp not bothering anyone and we were told she couldn’t “play” in the bar and that she needed to remain seated. Unless you have a baby of the age or temperament to remain seated for a meal I’d recommend heading to any number of other breweries in the area. We always have a good time at ounces and west Seattle brewing on Fauntleroy or alki. At ounces and the west Seattle brewing on alki dogs are also welcome! At good society dogs aren’t allowed in. Or babies of walking age either it seems ?Won’t be coming back to good society sadly! It’s just a pity to have one of your go to places ruined like this. Especially as new first time parents who have a hard enough time getting out of the house. Overall it was a very demoralizing evening._______UPDATE: after posting this review the manager (probably) commented on this review asking me to reach out. This was for the public’s benefit only as I did reach out and received no reply. Very unprofessional. It’s clear somewhere in the past few years management changed because you can see google reviews from three years ago saying how baby friendly good society is and that they have toys around. Most certainly not the case now.

Welp. Wanted to like it here. Took us 60min to get all of our food ( pretzel, tater tots and a brat). We had to ask where our food was. Understandably so, technology happens and our ticket didn't make it to the kitchen. HOWEVER, we had to go up there and ask where it was (not busy it was a Wed 6@night). It came 10min later which was lovely- HOWEVER we wanted to leave before music bingo happened at 7. So all of our food had to be boxed up. When asked for a break off our bill considering the absurd wait time we got comped .... The tots. The cheapest item. We had 3 beers!!! We tried. Omg did we try! We played trivia at our table hoping and being patient. When asked for something off our bill the bartender was real reluctant to do it and made it seem absurd. I get it. Times are weird. People are weird but damn what a let down. Own the hour delay in our very easy to make food. Also so many damn kids. Ew. We will try again for the good beer because it's served right away!

The beer itself was wonderful; one of the better Oktoberfest beers I've had; very comparable to Ayinger. I like more variety in my very favorite breweries but this was solid nonetheless.

Walking in West Seattle on a beautiful sunny Sunday and I ended up here. On accident? Nope, thank you Yelp for the brewery recommendations in the area. The vibe here is super cool and fun here with many choices for beer. I had a sour which was super refreshing and just the right amount of sour for a sunny day. Based on previous reviews I ordered the pretzel. My pretzel experience was not favorable. It was hard, almost stale and I had to soak it in the cheese sauce to take a bite. No problem here, perhaps it was an off day for pretzels here. The service was super friendly and the vibe excellent. Clean restrooms, open seating with loads of room. The outdoor area is huge! Probably a remnant of COVID outdoor seats. The heat was kicking up so I sat inside for the air conditioning. I look forward to more fun vibes in West Seattle. Cheers, happy Yelping.!

Great local brewery in West Seattle! They have a few gluten free (non beer) options and have added a few gluten free and vegan snacks to their limited eat-in menu as well. Typically best for a drink before or after dinner. Ample indoor seating (we jokingly call it the baby brewery because it easily accommodates many strollers) and excellent outdoor seating on the street that is heated in the winter. All around good vibes and a solid all-season spot.

This is a new find for us. Loved it. My husband and I really enjoyed The First to Fall Grisette while we snacked on the yummy Brewer’s Board. High ceilings, party lights strung indoors, large (and smaller) tables so you can meet up with a large group of friends. You can see the brewing equipment. Large wall displaying a local artist’s work. Clean bathrooms. Friendly, well trained service staff. Covered outside area which also have party lights. Well definitely will return.

This is the best spot! great beer, service and you have to try the hummus and brewers boards. The ambiance is really chill and you can have a large group and still hear each other.
