    THE most refreshing/sophisticated/heart-warming/sexy/delicious drinks in WS. This is a gem, the bartenders are super knowledgeable and friendly as well. This place is classy with a sort of speak-easyvibe. They recently started having food vendors outside for those who enjoy having an appetizer. Great neighborhood spot.

    Cozy little cocktail spot with great menu and delicious cocktail. We ended up going here on a rainy evening so it wasn’t crowded. A lot of different options to choose from, and the cocktails were great

    I just had my mind blown by the creativity, quality, and overall attention to detail. Cassandra and Cara are WIZARDS of cocktail creations. This is, by FAR, the BEST cocktail bar I've ever solicited. The amount of unique, delicious cocktails on the menu speaks for itself. Why have you not visited? You need to go.

    Stopped in late one night for a drink after getting dinner across the street, and had such a good time!! It’s pretty small & cozy inside, but they do have an upstairs loft area where you can sit as well. There was a pretty big menu with many cocktail options and plenty of unique flavor combinations I’ve never see before! I love the creativity behind their drinks and how the staff get to create their own and have their names listed on the menu. Makes it such a fun experience and more interactive seeing what people come up with!! If you’re into craft cocktails this is definitely one place you want to check out. It’s very dog friendly, you can bring your dog inside which is always a plus!

    Craft, seasonal cocktails and cute drinkware. The drinks are on par with SF/NY speakeasy and cocktail spots, but the vibe and staff are far more approachable. Almost impossible to try only one cocktail. This is a must visit for any date night or catch up.

    Cute and inventive cocktail bar in North Admiral. My partner and I met up with two friends for cocktails at The NOOK. The drink menu features inventive cocktails categorized by flavor profile and a fair number of mocktail offerings. We arrived at the bar on a Friday around 8:30pm and found seating for four fairly easily. We stayed until about 11:30pm and the bar had mostly emptied out. A nice place for meeting up with friends or a cozy date.

    Very nice bar in West Seattle (Admiral Way) with a plethora of delicious mixed drinks and beer on tap. Has a very intimate vibe, perfect for convos over drinks that we all missed so much.

    For a long time, the West Seattle cocktail landscape was a bleak one so I am glad that this neighborhood gem opened up and I hope that it is wildly successful so that it stays in business and encourages other entrepreneurial cocktailers to open up similar spots this side of the Duwamish. The service was friendly - these guys are clearly passionate about what they do, and the cocktails were creative and tasty. Their versions of classic cocktails were true to the originals and often had a bit of a unique flair, which I appreciate. My only complaint is that they close at midnight on weekends, which I do understand though since it is in a pretty quiet neighborhood.

    We stopped in while out for a walk. It is cozy inside, there are spots upstairs but we didn't see that area and there are a few outside seats. The cocktails were very good, plenty of options including non-alcoholic.

    Delicious cocktails and a variety of interesting options to pick from whether you prefer sweet or spicy. The bartenders are friendly. The atmosphere depends on when you visit, we've been when there are lots of groups gathered with their dogs (happy hour timing) and other times where it has more of a cozy date spot, romantic vibe (evening).

    A great date destination. The bartender was *fast* and made great drinks. It was relaxed inside on a weekday night, I loved the view of the trees from the second floor.

    I went there to grab a bite from Tim's tent today and decided to have an IPA on tap there. Glad I did! Very cool staff, layout, and one of the hidden 'gems' I would had never known about if Tim didn't tell me. We'll be back for sure.

    Great drinks in an amazing atmosphere! Come on a Friday night and check out the live music and make sure to come hungry and try out Cooking With Timmy outside! His burgers and sandwiches are some of the best around!

    This is my favorite bar in Seattle. The drinks are great. The bartenders are warm and fun. The space is cozy and unique. I always enjoy going and spending time there. Cassandra is the absolute best! I also really enjoy how the menu changes with the season, yet keeps the staples. Don’t be afraid to experiment here! The bartenders know their liquors well!

    Another great place for drinks and snacks. These guys do a bunch of creative cocktails with a slew of house made infusions. There's plenty of traditional offerings and plenty of more unique drinks to reflect the season. Great staff and as the name implies, a cute and cozy space.

    Excellent place. Great cocktails, with some new and intresting flavours. The banana bread old fashioned is awesome

  • 5/5 Joey R. 1 year ago on Google
    The Nook very classy place great cocktail's & non alcohol drinks were very unique. Small food bite's inside Tim's tent outside didn't eat but smelled outstanding. All staff were very friendly and beautiful people was turned on to the Nook from my friend (Trinity) & wish I would have stopped by sooner. Would highly recommend the Nook to anybody & everybody; a true Gem of a place right in West Seattle!

    Such a fun, cozy spot! The cocktail menu was polished and fun. We were snacky and our bartender recommended the chicken salad - so good!! I don't even like chicken salad normally but it's different in the best way.

  • 4/5 Sarah S. 1 year ago on Google
    Cozy nook as advertised. It's like sitting in someone's living room. Delicious and pricey cocktails. Had a Manhattan that was very good but interesting glass... maybe compact to fit b the space? Only had tapenade to eat and it came in a cute mason jar and was very savory. Didn't give 5 stars because it's a little high brow for West Seattle.

  • 5/5 Natasha K. 1 year ago on Google
    Some of the best and most creative cocktails in West Seattle, in the coziest atmosphere. I discovered The Nook years ago (under the prior ownership), and the new owners have kept it going, and it might be better than ever. Definitely a spot worth checking out, especially if you’re in the North Admiral area.

  • 5/5 Ashlee H. 2 years ago on Google
    What a cool place. Super cozy and great ambience. The drinks were amazing. Classics and new drinks I've never tried. Friendly service. They also have a small snack menu. Will definitely be back.

  • 5/5 Steve J. 2 years ago on Google
    Best cocktail bar in West Seattle. It’s a small super comfortable space with a little outdoor seating. No real food to mention, but great mix of custom cocktails and a bunch of in-house infused liquors.

    I have been wanting to go to The Nook for months. I check thier insta account to see their weekly specials and they look amazing. Stopped by on a Friday night post midnight (yes this place is open until 2 am) and there were barely 5-7 folks seated. We got comfortable on the 2nd floor in their cozy couch and ordered their specials - banana bread old fashioned, brittains cartel, phuket! Lets drink, negroni azul and nook hot toddy. All the drinks were amazing!! It was fun to watch the bartender make some fancy drinks there. All in all we had an amazing time at The Nook. Highly recommend these folks. I will be a regular for sure.

    Super unique bar with a wonderful bartender and delicious cocktails. Would definitely visit again when I'm in Seattle!

  • 5/5 Damyon R. 2 years ago on Google
    Alana! She is possible the best bartender I have ever had! She is a east coast upstate New York riot. She is so funny and has the best possible palate for creating her own cocktails and making you feel like you are at home. She is what the book is and should strive to always be thanks Alana and the Nook!!

  • 5/5 Monica M. 1 year ago on Google
    Omg the best!! So impressed by the young bartender gal!! She had us try Mr. Roboto, omg I think it was the best drink i had ever had! Delicious! I so wish they served more food! Loved it, kinda like a speakeasy atmosphere.
