Feedback Lounge and Beveridge Place


Feedback Lounge Bar

Yesterday, after much anticipation I tried the brand new Feedback Lounge in West Seattle. Carly tipped me off that it opened April 25. The Cobalt carpool (Matt, Vic, Owen and I) headed there straight from the hot 50 minute commute. We were lured 90% by the promise of a Sunn Deck, which we all envisioned to be rooftop. Sadly the Sunn deck turned out to be a very tiny porch off the back, that we told was 'closed'. When I told our waitress how sad I was by this turn of events she tried to get the owner, saying "I told him people would think it was bigger!" The website does say it's only 40 feet big, I guess I just wished it was a rooftop deck.

It really didn't matter. There was so much to take in. Original rock tour posters from Led Zeppelin to Montley Crue. The promised Rok Box with its belly full of rock memorabilia. And the appetizers were delicious.

Next we checked out the "new" Beveridge Place Pub, which left its location to the Feedback Lounge and moved about 10 feet over. New location made a huge difference. It is beautiful. Bright and spacious. Dog friendly. I love the Beveridge Place Pub, I wish I were a regular. It's one of the places where the bartenders know everyone by name and neighbors look forward to running into one another.
