    our lunch waitress was very slow, and we thought very new. We were there for nearly 2 hours for lunch on a not so busy day. This was a first because usually the wait staff are fantastic!

    2nd time we have come here for a nice lunch before a matinee at the 5th Avenue Theater. Service was very good and cheerful.

    Elephant & Castle has become a regular stop for my family when we are in Seattle, and it never disappoints. The food is delicious, the service is wonderful, and the atmosphere is high energy and exhilarating.

    Having recently visited Scotland, I was missing a taste of the UK. So I took a chance with this pub tucked under a Hilton. I was greeted warmly, seated out of the way at a table by the window, and waited upon by a mustached gentleman who offered up recommendations that were nothing short of spectacular. Jameson chicken, penicillin cocktail from the bar, and a lovely bread pudding with golden raisins (I'm not a fan of raisins, and this was delicious). While I ate, I was surrounded by the ruckus from the bar as a crowd watched a hockey game. While some patrons found it intolerable, I felt absolutely at ease.

    Had a great pre theatre meal. They had us out in time. Everyone (vegetarian, pescatarians and meat eaters) was happy with their meals, cocktails and dessert. Great choice and I’m happy they are still a great dinner spot in downtown Seattle at a reasonable price.

    Great place to watch the Super Bowl after attending ACT Theater since it was only two blocks away. Service was good considering the place was packed for the Super Bowl. Food was also good for a pub. The sausage rolls with curry ketchup were a nice treat. Poutine was good with lots of cheese. Leek and potato pie was a bit bland. It needed some seasoning. The Highland whiskey flight was excellent.
