11:30am-11pm Sun-Thu, to midnight Fri & Sat; 5)
A sibling to the Hilltop Ale House in
Queen Anne, this is the kind of place that, if you lived nearby, you'd find yourself in
several times a week. It's immediately comfortable, to the point that you feel like an in-
stant regular - plus there are dozens of outstanding beers on tap, and the food is miles
above usual pub standards.
