Pro Palate Works for Pub and writes reviews...how convenient

by edddulac

No pro palate I dont own a restaurant. Just want people to be aware of my experience. Read all reviews...the real ones have low score. The ones that sound like a written commercial are that.

• Pros: read all reviews

Best Burgers and Seet Potato Fires in Seattle

by Wapuka

This is a great neighborhood pub with wonderful food. My girlfriends and I love to go to Buckley's to hang out and enjoy ourselves. Buckley's has the best salads and hamburgers in Seattle. Buckley's has a nice friendly atmosphere and the staff is very friendly and efficient. There are always lots of locals. This is definitely the best place to eat very good food at affordable prices in the lower Queen Anne neighborhood area.

LAME Sportsbar- LOUSY SERVICE,...

by jamesdevaney

LAME Sportsbar- Went to watch NCAA March Madness Tournament and they did not even play the volume of any game as the bartender was more interested in listening to his raggae music than having any volume for the Duke game against Belmont. If you like fern bars that do not care about sports, fans and want poor service go to this lame pathetic place with lousy management at least on this opening day of a real sports event.

• Pros: NONE
• Cons: LOUSY SERVICE....

Horrible Service; Sub-Par Food

by seakobi

About 4 years ago, I lived in the neighborhood and this place was wonderful. After attending this past weekend, we WILL NOT be going back.

The server had two tables (we were one of them) and we had to beg for additional coffee and fetch our own additional place settings, etc. There is a shrimp and grits dish where the menu claims is made with sweet potato grits - but the sweet potatos were non-existant. Frustrating because that was part of why we ordered it. Some of the other dishes we ordered were just alright - nothing to send a postcard home about.

We were asking so many questions (coffee, etc.) the server was done with us before we even had our order taken.

Very disappointing; we will not return.

• Pros: Sports TV
• Cons: Service, Service, Service, accuracy of the menu

Best damn sports bar in Seattle

by ProPalate

eddulac, do you own a competing restaurant by chance? I have been to Buckley a handful of times since discovering it last year and I have never been disappointed with anything, except maybe finding a seat during a good soccer game or other sporting event. The food is not only far above average for a sports bar but better then a lot of up-scale restaurants in the area. The beer selection is second to none and the bar tending staff is the friendliest in the city. A must go if you are a sports enthusiast or just like a great meal.

• Pros: Food, service, sports and beer
• Cons: free parking

Service, Quality and Value

by junglefish

Discovering Buckley's was a zen moment for me. I first sought it out when they were progressive enough to be ahead of the smoking ban and I have loved it ever since. The environment is equal parts cozy living room and sports den. The pub food is excellent and I have yet to go have a bad meal. I recommend any of the salads and I never ever go wrong with the chicken club.

The place is well managed and the bar tenders and staff go out of their way to make you feel at home. If you are looking for a friendly watering hole, in a fun and more grown up environment than the typical downtown lounge or club, this is your place.

• Pros: The food, staff and beer selection
• Cons: bar area can get crowded, so I guess the secret is out

clever bunch

by eddulac

This clever bunch was able to move the bad review down a few notches and their wonderful piece of self advertisement back to the top. City serarch?...are you being impartial?

• Pros: ...
• Cons: being open

Best burgers

by jubbjubb1

I love Buckley's. I really think they're the best burgers in town. Now that we can all get over the novelty of "American-style" Kobe burgers, we can focus on real quality -- that's what Buckley's is all about. And, it's not just the perfectly ground, flavorful beef they use; the bun itself is worth note. It's just a little different than your typical bun, but soooooo much better. Their other sandwiches are great and several of the ap's worthwhile, but it would be a sin to miss their burger. Otherwise it's a good brew-type pub, comfy and woody --by the way, did I mention how great their burgers are-- that's easy to find and parking's not bad considering how close they are to Seattle Center.

• Pros: Great staff -- incredible burgers
• Cons: I haven't figured out how to get burgers for free yet

Dog Friendly!

by intranzit

It's rare to find a restaurant that will let you bring your dog on the patio, but mine was welcome and given a dish of water to drink while we ate. The food was great, the drinks were delicious (try a blueberry lemondrop!) and our waitress was friendly, and made us feel really comfortable.

• Pros: Friendly staff, dog friendly, good food and drinks
• Cons: None
