Wow! Almost afraid to post too much about the experience so it doesn't get overrun but I can't help myself. Excellent good! Best pub food I've had. I ate up front on the sidewalk but will definitely do the hidden beautiful back deck next time. The mocktails are delicious too!

Mac and cheese ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- I really liked this! And I'm not a Mac and cheese sort of person!French dip bahn mi ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- good but could only have half, was quite richGochujang wings ⭐⭐⭐⭐- so good, I'm not a huge wings fan because it's hard for me to eat, but pretty solid flavor- love the salad it came withRosemary fries ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- so goodMoscow mule ⭐⭐⭐⭐- nothing spectacular

My husband and I found this awesome pub through the Kuto app. Absolutely delicious drinks, friendly service and the Gong Bao stir fry was the best I have had - the tofu was cooked perfectly and the sauce was fantastic! The outdoor patio is gorgeous as well - such a cool spot to hang out - we will definitely be back!

They used to have a good burger here but WOW they have gone down hill. Paid $18 for $5 happy meal quality burger. Avoid this place. It's awful and overpriced.

Atmosphere goes to the back with a beer garden feel. View of the street and folks there are on point.

We were there for a wedding rehearsal dinner. The food was very good and the service was fantastic. Not typical bar food. Everything was great. I highly recommend North 45.

The covered back patio is really cool and a great addition to the already cozy interiors. The food is very good, especially the Gong Bao Stir fry. And despite tasting great, the Banh Mi french dip sandwich is disappointingly small.

One of the better all-around bars in the area.With a rotating tap list, surprisingly decent amount of seating (they have a massive outdoor space put back that is heated & covered), solid cocktails, and relatively good food for a bar too!There are TVs inside and out back.Service is also usually quite nice too. Just be mindful that they have a lot of space to cover, so give them a bit of grace - but even with that being said, they're usually quite on top of things.I tend to find myself coming back more often than not. Especially with an indecisive group that just wants to stay in NW.

It's been a few years since I've been to North 45 and I was pleased to see the back patio in full swing / fully covered with heaters. They have done a great job taking advantage of the outdoor space and making a safe and fun environment. Service was prompt and very friendly. My Old Fashioned was made to perfection! My 4 of 5 stars is because the chorizo muscles were not as good as I remembered. I raved about them to my colleagues and they just were not as flavorful as I had expressed. Poor quality chorizo? Too much broth? I couldn't put my finger on it, but consumed them all the same. They weren't bad but they weren't great either.

OK aside from the dingy look to this place they do try to do a great plate.Service is good and I can see the dedication to a healthy neighborhood Pub.Keep it up North 45, you have a good thing going.. just have some tweeking to do.
