It's a nice Americana sports bar. The food is stick-to-your ribs good and it has plenty of vegetarian and vegan options for their sandwiches.
Colin was a great server/bartender, very attentive without being overbearing. The food was overall pretty good but I still want to love the smoked wings more than I actually do. The seasoning was patchy at best and the wings were fatty. Still a good place to watch some sports, sip some brews and hang with the Columbia City locals though!
Friendly wait staff, good food!
One of our go-to places in Seattle. Great food. Friendly staff. Nice place to watch sports events.
One of the rare sports bars that exists in the city. Plenty of TVs and your typical average to below average bar food located in a walkable neighborhood. Friendly service and can become crowded. Good ambiance.
The breakfast burrito was out of this world. Good prices, the owner/bartender is a cool dude.
Rookie's Backyard still exists on Google, as well as Rookie's Bar and Grill. The problem is, the menu is completely different with little to no vegetarian options. We drove all the way over to this restaurant from the east side only to walk in, see the menu, and realize we'd been duped. Look up Rookies Backyard on Google...beware, the menu is not at all the same.
Not bad at all. Strong drinks, nice folks, good pub fare.
Watched the USA v MEX qualifying game here and had a blast. They were pretty busy and I didn't get a water refill for a while. The sandwich I ordered had yucky gross lettuce on it but I don't remember seeing that on the menu. But other than that the sandwich and fries were great. I also got a dessert, the bread pudding, which is probably the richest dessert I've ever had.
