WILDROSE

So cold. I went on a Tuesday night and I was freezing. Not sure if they don't have a heater or don't run it or were, but it doesn't do anything? Basic bar. Decent atmosphere. I like all the art they have up and the chairs were pretty comfortable. Decent vibe. I'd be interested to see how it was on a weekend with dancing and more people. Drinks were on the smaller side (lots of ice) but pricey.

We had a lesbian bar for years here and it closed in 2024, so when I travel I look for what has become a unicorn since the pandemic. The Wildrose didn't disappoint. Spacious and funky with a mellow vibe. Friendly security and felt safe. Now there is Joe!!!! Best bartender ever. Efficient, kind, smart and great to talk to. I would go back to Seattle to hang out with him. And, I am hoping that either of these two books are correct: "Pig-Tail Days in Old Seattle" or "Soiled Doves: Prostitution in the Old West?" If not, I have access to all libraries and sources too through work, so feel free to lmk.

In this day and age, it's difficult to find bartenders who are kind - especially on capitol hill. Riley fits the bill. She's kind, attentive, makes great drinks, and recognizes you as a human being. Panda (security) is also great. I've seen him, after hours & on his own time, breaking up a fight - because he cares. He puts himself in danger, for the sake and security of others, because he cares. Even off the clock. & It's nice to be able to feel safe. People like this are rare, and appreciated Thank you! ❤️

We came 3 times before and it was fine but then…. A girl got upset because I shared some stupid dance tips and they treated us like shit. It’s supposed to be a safe space and that includes a bisexual woman with her husband just having a good time. Not cool. Won’t go back!

Unfortunately a lot of straight men taking up space here recently. Cover is cash only, $5. Music is very hit or miss but the door staff is great. Very dive bar ish, could probably pull in some better DJs because we often hear the exact same set.

Great queer bar with fun events, great energy, and amazing people. The bartenders are always friendly when it’s a quiet Monday or a busy Saturday night. I love the diversity of events there, you can find something for everyone.

I was really looking forward into spending time at this bar. I flew from California, my cousin flew from Canada and we met in Seattle. And this is one of the things I wanted to visit because we don't have one right here in my area. I had the most horrible experience. I was very disrespected, they had trivia in one room, and we saw a couple of empty chairs. We went to go sit down, and then the guy that was holding the group told me and my cousin that all the seats are taken? And he pointed with his finger to the other room, which is it was empty with tables and chairs, and he said you go sit over there Ladies and then we feel like we were put in a corner in time out the drink was awful. She put water. Inside my old fashion, it's supposed to be just whiskey.And I told her I asked her how she would make and it sounded good then I saw her at the end, splash water in it made it terrible, i asked her.Why would you put water in it?She said to loose up the sweetness i was very disappointed, very hurt.And I do not recommend this place. I really was looking forward to visit it . Googled it months before we went.
