Underbelly

📍 Gay bars in Seattle

6.6

Underbelly is a distinctive underground bar in Seattle’s Pioneer Square, blending cozy ambiance with a laid-back yet engaging atmosphere. Known for its craft cocktails, the establishment excels in personalized drink-making, often tailoring creations based on preferences—whether you’re sipping a Moscow Mule or exploring their house specialties. The space is split into two areas, connected by the bar, offering a seamless flow between casual dining (think pizza, breadsticks, and hot pretzels) and lively conversation.

The staff’s attentiveness and historical insights about the building add depth to the experience, though service consistency can vary. Early evenings often mean a quieter, intimate setting, while later visits may bring a livelier crowd. While generally welcoming, occasional lapses in hospitality remind guests to approach with patience. A solid choice for those seeking a mix of underground charm and quality libations.

Jake was amazing. I ordered my usual, in Moscow mule, and it tasted delicious. When I was just about done with my beverage, he came to ask me if I was doing all right (respectfully attentive). He then asked me what I do like and if there’s anything I do not like in a cocktail and proceeded to make me a fantastic drink tailored to me. Would recommend!

Headed here on a Sunday evening before an event. It was super early so I wasnt surprised to have the place to myself. Garlic bread was absolutely amazing! Drinks were great too, and bartender even made up a delicious cocktail on the spot. Will definitely stop in next time I’m in the neighborhood! I’ll probably stop by after my event for an after drink!

My wife and I stopped here after the underground tour. The tour guide mentioned the establishment as a good place for some drinks. We tried one of each of their 4 house cocktails. All were delicious and unique in flavor! The staff was very friendly and informative about the history of the building. They even let us see their underground building surrounding. Thank you!!

Ignored at the bar (it was not busy) when my friend was finally able to order she was met with and annoyed and rude vibes from the bartender who didn’t say a word to her while she ordered. 2 white guys ordered right after us and they immediately made their drinks. They did not make our drinks! we walked out after 20min.
