What People Are Saying About The Sitting Room

The Scene – Intimate tables and a well-worn sofa and chairs blur the lines between cafe and living room at this eminently comfortable Queen Anne bar. Gently glowing lamps cast shadows across the burgundy cement floors and golden walls. Regulars drink wine and eat snacks at the zinc-top bar, or settle in with friends at tables for signature cocktails and affordable dinner plates. The front window, an old garage door, is thrown open on sunny days--enjoy the breeze and pretend you're in Paris. – – The Draw – European cocktails kickstart the menu, including versions made…

Cozy neighbourhood bar
by thirstydml at Citysearch
Cozy, continental atmosphere, friendly staff, great food and drink! Having immensely enjoyed over a dozen convivial evenings at The Sitting Room over the past 3 years, we have only praise for this bar. The Happy Hour is a great value and the food and drink is of excellent quality. The Stella is cold and fresh. and we are always greeted warmly by the friendly bartender and the owner. If only we had such a place in our neighbourhood in Vancouver, BC!
- Pros: Friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere
- Cons: It's not in our neighbourhood!

Beautiful, quiet and romantic
by JohnPostlethwait at Citysearch
I have been going to The Sitting Room for about a year now and it is still one of my favorite bars in Seattle. The name is exactly what you should expect here: A place to sit, chat, relax and enjoy the company of those around you...
The food is always amazing and while it may be a little more expensive than the sliders and endless tots you're used to what you get is infinitely more pleasurable.
The employees have all been there as long as I have been going there which really says something about a place. The owner is an amazing, friendly man and is there every day when the bar opens. The employees are all extremely friendly, outgoing and easy-going which is exactly what I look for in a place that is supposed to be about good food, good drinks and good company to enjoy it all with.
I'll keep coming here.

A great place, usually
by trueseattlite at Citysearch
I've been going to the Sitting Room for about 8 months, since I moved from the U-dist. to Queen Anne. I always found the place to be charming, with great drinks and eats. Great servers and bartenders-most who have been there for years. I was there last night-it was a sat. and I witnessed some of the trashiest behavior I have ever seen. A group of people celebrating a party took up half the room and kept trying to order coors light, vodka red-bull, sliders and french fries. The Sitting Room is NOT that kind of place. White trash orders aside, they were pushy, rude and insulting to their waitress who has served me many times and I found to be sweet and very helpful with the foood and drink specials. This poor girl-(sorry server, I can't recall your name but you have red hair and always wear great heels), went through this abuse all night and I can only hope they tipped her enough to have put up with it-though from what I could tell they were too busy disputing the cost of their tabs to get out of paying that they were probably bad tippers as well. We witnessed them take their shoes off and walk around barefoot, sit on the floor, and lick frosting off cupcakes they had brought in and then throw the wrappers and half eaten cakes on the floor! Where are these people from?!? Certainly, not Seattlites. What self respecting Seattle inhabitant would try to order chicken strips and a coors light at a wine bar? Long story short: I hope the next time I'm in the ambiance isn't ruined by WT girls and jack a$$ guys and my friend and I can enjoy our wine and cheese board without the circus.
- Pros: great food, lovley drinks, excelent service
- Cons: when people "trash" the place.
