What People Are Saying About Summit Public House

In Short – Don't expect a fashion show at the Summit--patrons visiting this tucked-away tavern go for comfort, not cool. The hardwood interior is as comfy as customers' clothing, and the magnet-covered fridge doors make it feel even more like home. There are 22 beers on tap--and the scoreboard-sized list on the wall makes it easy to digest the selection. The lone pool table is a popular source of entertainment, as is the old-school Galaga machine.

Years of enjoyment!

by michaelseattle

I've been going to the Summit since it became a bar. The owners, previos & new have always been very pleasant and attentive. Location (4 blocks from my apt.) is perfect, and you can smoke & drink on the patio out front. Love the fact that it's dog friendly (mets LOTS of canine friends!) Music is mostly good (I'm a little older than the average patron there-Classic Rock is my bag) and I can't thank the Summit enough for introducing me to my favorite Belgian beer - Hoegaarden !!

  • Pros: Friendly staff/beer selection/location
  • Cons: too many other people discovered it/ often overcrowded (only reason 4/5 stars!)

Like to be abused by cranky rude bartenders?

by karen222

I read the reviews here saying the new owners are better, so I decided to go check them out.

Now I think maybe the owners wrote those reviews themselves. The woman tending bar had a really bad attitude, and sort of passive agressive. I thought she might not like her job but I asked my friend who told me she WAS the boss! I was shocked. I have a TV and refrigerator at home, so if I go to a bar it's to be around cool people, relax and have some fun, not to be mistreated! To be fair the other male bartender/assistant that brought my food seemed quite nice so if he reads this - it's not your fault and I hope you can find another place to work soon!

  • Pros: The exit sign is clearly visible
  • Cons: Everything
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
