This bar used to be a Gay Bar where the current Grand Hyatt is located. When that property was bought out, Sonya's moved to its current location and went upscale with a nice interior and great view of the Sound. Now the place is changing to a het bar which is okay but why does the staff need to be rude to those people who were semi-regulars but now feel unwelcomed? The bobbed blonde bartender in the back bar wasn't rude but perhaps just truly ignorant in the basics of good service and simple manners. She alone has caused several in our group to never return to Sonya's which is a shame. For a Saturday night, the place was not quite empty so perhaps the economics of the place doesn't require a steady clientele. And the bars continue to decline.

My husband and I were in Seattle for a week and were lucky enough to stumble across this bar on our first day. Mostly locals frequent this bar; we felt like we were at Cheers. I assume the bartending staff have changed since the last review was written in 2005. We met 4 different bartenders and all were very friendly. Locals and bartenders alike were eger tell us what not to miss in this awesome city. Don't miss the view from the back bar! Beer is very affordable here too.
