The Scene – This tavern offers the ultimate cross section of its hip, happy neighborhood--from the jukebox that finds Tammy Wynette commingling with the Smiths, to the buffalo head that hangs over the bar watching tattooed punks eat grilled cheese sandwiches. Linda's also features occasional appearances by a diverse selection of local DJs spinning everything from classic country to '60s surf rock. Snag one of the tall wooden booths and hang out all evening. – – The Draw – Though hard alcohol is served, a pitcher of beer is pretty much the standard and makes for a…

YES YES YES LINDA'S TAVERN ATMOSPHERE
by ultron at Citysearch
YES! YES! YES! TO LINDA'S TAVERN!
Me and My Darling Spidey and I hung out on the deck and ate sliders (keep them coming) , fries , crown and coke - THE BARTENDER's Original American name is translated into English as "MAKES GREAT DRINKS", We had a merry time, everyone was so nice and nobody gave us attitude, fellow patrons were friendly, nobody was rude or asked for autographs, and you still find the washroom after kicking back a few. THERE IS NO PLACE WE WOULD RATHER BE to be seen and be casual in Emerald City. It is the only place We would recommend. The Last place Kurt Cobain was seen in public..
- Pros: Casual Get together on the Hill
- Cons: we can't stay forever

Hipster bar accomodates regular peoples
by kindofamused at Citysearch
Don't get me wrong; I really do love Linda's for all that it is. But if you have a hard time with hipsters, and I mean the ULTRA-hip hipsters, this might not be the right place for you. Faux-"lodgie" atmosphere is warm and comfortable (and hip). Kitchen provides tasty fare to match. Beers are ALWAYS of the most superior quality (the friendly bartenders will usually let you taste before you buy). If it's too crowded inside, head out back; and if it's chilly, crank on one of the propane heaters (you don't ACTUALLY need to ask the bartender to do it for you). The bouncer is usually overly smug (one drunken evening I was denied entrance because I fumbled when presenting my ID). All in all, Linda's is awesome. I've been there on 1 star nights and I've been there on 5 star nights. Give it a try!
- Pros: Great beer on tap. 7-9 happy hour.
- Cons: Frequently overcrowded.

RUDE!
by lesliechristison at Citysearch
When the bartender is rude and condescending about your drinks and all you want to do is give her your money to enjoy your refreshing shots but she wants to keep running her mouth, thats not my idea of a good bartender. Not to mention the bouncer was rude as well and as a heads up just make sure you dont open the door too hard because or else they will rip you a new one. Their slogan goes something like nice place for nice people! THATS A LAUGH!
