The staff makes this place. The GM and the bartender were so personable and I feel guilty for somehow not getting or remembering their names. They make a great relaxed atmosphere and the food was pretty good as well.
My husband got the Ghost Pepper burger and I got the BLTA. They bothe were satisfying. We came back the next morning and ate breakfast and I forgot to take pics of that. We both got biscuits and gravy. It was good. My only change would be chuncks of meat in the sausage gravy. Almost forgot we got pickle fries and they were hot and tasty. Yum!
This place is connected to The Executive Pacific Hotel where we stayed and was very convenient for us while we stayed there.
Popped in to grab brunch the other day and loved it! The bartender was friendly and personable, the food was amazing and drinks were on point. We were shocked there place wasn’t packed! Definitely a great spot to grab brunch in the area! The pickle fries are perfection, breakfast burrito is beyond delicious and service is fun and fast!
Disclaimer: I got carryout twice, so can't comment on the dine in atmosphere.
I'm from out of town and stayed at a hotel near The Lodge, was looking for easy carryout options. I picked up from here twice, once trying the steak sandwich and the next time the ghost steak burger. The food was very good, cooked to order, and the service was prompt. When I arrived to pick up my order, both times, it was ready to go.
If I had one complaint, I'd say the steak on the steak sandwich could be cut smaller. It was delicious, but the large cuts of the steak had me pulling out one big chunk with one bite, then eating portions of bread and toppings with no steak.
All in all, would continue to dine here.
Great spot to chill and have a drink. Stayed at the hotel upstairs so it was very convenient. Prices reflective of the area. Staff is great, very kind and have positive attitudes. 10/10 recommended the Raspberry mule
We stopped in for lunch after a long cross country flight - and we’re so glad we did! Both bartenders were friendly, there was a great atmosphere, and the food & beer were delicious. The prices were also extremely reasonable (especially when comparing to other restaurants in the area). Give this place a try!
The food was excellent. They offer quite a selection of beer, wine, and spirits. You can tell your meal was made by a well trained team in the kitchen. My burger came out perfectly cooked. The fries were the perfect level of crisp and tender. The service was the only hang-up for me. For the volume of customers, I would have expected a faster greeting and overall service time. The staff are perfectly friendly and helpful, but for a central location like this, I would expect a cut above. Overall a great spot and definitely worth your time. It appears they can accommodate larger groups and the bar is a nice spot to grab a quick bite. It’s the best place I have tried downtown so far.
I am sure this place is amazing, but my experience was hopefully a fluke. Went in about noon, was told no seating until 1. They were swamped, just a bartender and 1 brand new server. Where I come from, you don't just shut down your restaurant because you're busy, but Seattle is a different breed. When we finally did get our food, it was delicious!!!!! I'm writing this review because if they are slammed, come back, it's worth the wait! Staff was friendly and comical! Worth the wait!
Stopped in to watch a game and was disappointed that the lodge was playing music instead of the game commentary. It was playoff game 7 for basketball and hockey plus a NY-Mariner game and you played a music soundtrack. I had one quick drink and left to find a sports bar playing the game with sound. Disappointed but a cool bar overall.
Good food, good service, decent beer selection, solid back bar stock, plenty of televisions for sporting events but not set up as a sports bar...
This place is great!
The very nice yet cozy lodge-style ambiance (the name is quite literal, not tounge-in-cheek) allows for conversation even when crowded.
Not cheap, but fair pricing given the quality of good and comparable prices at similar venues around downtown Seattle.
The Lodge is an old standard for me and my coworkers and will remain so for many years to come.
Cheers!
Ok time here on a very busy Saturday. Taps were all out, and the staff was doing their best to get orders and food out. Service was very rushed and harried. We actually ended up leaving to go to another sports bar because it just took long to get drinks ordered and utensils delivered. Some more staff and working taps would have made this a 5 star place.
