Glad we came here. We were working from out of state. We always search for a good sports bar, when we call it a night. Bud Light (that’s our beer) on tap amongst lots of others. TVs all around . This place did not disappoint. The patio has TVs there too. I saw the pictures of the breaded wings online… SOLD. That’s what we ordered. Crispy. Yum. Our bartender was attentive. Whenever a new customer walked in, he was on it. Thanks for the hospitality, Rob. Prices on the menu have changed, though. (It says so on a sticker in front of the menu.) We learned that as we were leaving. Would’ve been nice to know that from the gate. We save our receipts for work.

The food take out was quite instantaneous.It was remarkable moment for me. I was overwhelmed with all kinds of fuzzy emotions for the way the bartender expressed his love for me as I left pub. Trustworthy guy!

The chicken nachos are great. The beer selection is pretty thorough and tasty. Atmosphere was fairly quiet, understandable for a Thursday. Service was a little slow considering. Overall, Ill be grabbing beer here again Im sure.

Great tasting food, and my hubby really liked the cherry coke. Waitress was very nice and friendly. Good selection of pull tabs. They also had darts, a few arcade games, pool and a pinball machine.

Super tasty food. Good tap list. Yummy cocktails.

So tasty. Everything we were looking forWatermelon vodka was pretty good but wish it was more watermelony

Ordered from doordash and ordered the cheesecake AND THERE WAS MOLD ON MY CHEESECAKE. HOW ARE YOU GONNA BE A QUALITY RESTAURANT WITH MOLD ON THE CHEESECAKE. I wish it would let me upload pictures.

Bbq Chicken pizza was tasty, pool tables and great beer selection

Nice neighborhood tavernGood food/atmosphere. They had things on menu that were discontinued and some things they were out of because of a busy Friday night.

Great little bar. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Karaoke and pool tables.Felt like being at home. Will visit again!

Dude the chicken wings here are like crack. Perhaps the best wings Ive ever had at a restaurant. And they are pretty a cheap order at $20 for 20. Need I say more???

The food and beer are good but the service is very very poor. the bartender takes orders and brings them to the table like for the dogs. with a displeased face. I understand that this is a bar, but personal not friendly. 0 tips, 0 stars

This is the place you want to go if you want to meet people from all walks of life and just want to have fun, have a drink, and have some decent food.

Outside propane fire pit table in the back, lots of beer on tap, including a delicious porter, burgers, and popcorn shrimp. It was a great place for a small retirement party.

Not a fan of the service, asked for a beer and some wings at the same time... waited a little over 45 minutes just to have the wings come out first and they completely forgot about my beer... service would not acknowledge me at all after that and when I got up to ask for my receipt it took an additional 20 minutes and I literally had to ask 3 different people for it, just so I could leave. Not coming back ever... this is my first and only review I’ve ever written that’s how bad it was.

Luis represents what’s best about the experience at pub 85!!

Awesome beer selection! Great pub/comfort food. Plenty of sports and very attentive servers. Dont miss the fried green beans!

Friendly staff and great bar food

Great place to watch sports tons of energy

Great bar, good but cheep pool tables

1st time here, the burger was decent and the drinks were good, cant wait to come back during football season. Tons of tvs

Decent late night bar food if youre on rosehill.

Great food & great staff!

Ive been here about 1.5 hours. Ordered a beer, and it came quick enough. Told the (apparently only) waitress that is also like to order food. I was told to hold on a sec as she walked away. About ten to fifteen minutes later, as my beer was approaching empty, she came back for my order. After ordering my food, it came in a reasonable amount of time. I ordered another beer when it arrived. After that, despite multiple attempts to flag her down she did not come back to my table for at least 30 minutes. All I wanted was some ketchup and ranch, but she was completely oblivious to me or anyone not directly in front of her.Food is mediocre. Not great, not terrible. They DO have an incredible selection of Washington brews. So I guess they have that going for them....... .

If you want the best food and service. Why arent you here yet?

Good selection of beers (pandemic permitting), good food.

The staff is unbearable and rude.

I stopped in excited to try some microbrews and get some food to go. The waitress was great, but the microbrew samples were meh. Anything that wasnt a standard beer available in the store just wasnt very good. One of the samples was entirely without carbonation for some reason.So realizing there wasnt much to be had in the way of decent microbrews, I ordered a burger and salad to go around 10:20. By 11:00 I had the burger but no salad, and the guy behind the bar was yelling for everyone to get out, and that any remaining food orders would be given outside. (Seriously???) That just wasnt going to happen, Im not hanging around outside a bar at 11PM for a salad after already waiting 40 minutes, so I just left.When I got home, I found that my burger was completely pink throughout. This is safe for steak, but not for ground meat, though some people choose to take that risk out of personal preference. No one asked if I was OK with a pink burger, and not wanting to get sick, I ended up with a couple growlers of standard off the shelf beer, an otherwise empty stomach, a much lighter wallet, and a sour opinion of the place. Im currently microwaving some ramen and will not be returning.

My friends and I always have a wonderful time at this bar, weve been coming for years! Eric and Luis are fantastic, super friendly, quality bartenders. Eric makes one amazing breakfast shot and Luis makes an delicious lavender lemon drop! I do miss Tim a lot since he left though. They are all great bartenders :) Karaoke with Sandra Dee and Wayne is always a blast and they have a great selection of music! Sandra makes delicious cupcakes too! Darts, pool and great food. They have 4 different rotating ciders which is great for me as I love ciders. I love getting to try new local ciders and they have a large selection of beers too. I would definitely recommend coming out and bringing friends.

Ordered off door dash and all the food was messed up Im highly allergic to tomato specifically asked for non and stated I had an allergy and it seems like they put more on

The staff here has always been super friendly and professional. They have a good base of regulars that only come in cause of the bartenders that they have. I will be recommending this place in the future.

Great little spot

Visited on 2/19. Didn’t stay long but the gentleman bartender was absolutely awesome. A lot of bars in this area are very hipster and not very inviting this bar right here is a great thing to have. Will definitely be back.EDIT: The bartenders name was Louis, best bartender in Redmond hands down, either promote him or double his salary, dude is all time....👍👍

Blegh

Macaroni and Cheese delish!

Great bartenders tim hayley erik alway make great drinks very friendly staff I stop by to see them...

Use to be alot better

I have been going to Pub 85 for many years with my best friends. We’ve had good times, relaxing days, birthdays, bachelorette parties and celebrations there. It is our number one favorite place to go in Kirkland for a good time! Louis has a way with mixing drinks that never disappoints, always full of flavor and tailor just for me! Going there is like seeing family and being able to be in a safe place no matter the reason. I love the food, the chicken salad being my most favorite! With darts and pool, karaoke and football, there’s never a shortage of things to do! I love this bar and recommend it to anyone and everyone!

Erik is the best! We’ve been coming here for years and he looks after my friends and I all the time. One of the reason we keep coming back is because of him. He has outstanding customer service skills and we appreciate him so much. So good to have him back!!

Good selection of beers, friendly staff, unfriendly and seemingly always unhappy owner/Manager. Don’t think I’ve ever seen her smile, and when I’ve talked to her there has never been a smile or kindness/friendliness of any kind. Bathrooms leave something to be desired.I hear the Cobb salad is good.

Michelle, Luis, Eric, Ashley & Sam are amazing. Ive never had a bad time when Ive come in here. The staff is always welcoming & friendly. The drinks & food are great, and multiple tvs devoted to sports. The atmosphere is always fun and inviting.

Pub 85 is truly a neighborhood bar. Everyone is extremely friendly, excellent customer service, great food, and updated bar. This is really like a neighborhood bar as everyone knows each other at this location and it is generally open seating due to the large size of the bar. All TVs are able to be changed as desired as all boxes are on a separate network box. During Football season, you can watch all of the games that are occurring at the same time. Definitely one of my favorite bars in the area.

This is my go-to neighborhood bar. From football to karaoke on Fridays, its such a great vibe and the staff are amazing. Eric and Luise always make you feel like family. Their burgers and quesadillas are great!

Staying here at the Willows Lodge & we ordered from Pub85 through UberEats. The food was horrible! We ordered far ahead but due to uber eats & how long it takes it didnt get picked up for drop off until they close i assume. Burger was OK but couldve been hotter.. Place is only 10min or so from the hotel with how cold the food was.. Terrible

Love this bar! The atmosphere is great and the people are very friendly. Bartenders are awesome! Erik and Tim are the bomb!

My girlfriend enjoyed her ice with a side of Rum and Coke

A local dive sports bar that is a fabulous place to grab a beer and meet people. Dont expect to be waited on hand and foot but youll get a strong drink and full pint every time. 40 beers on tap, growlers filled, lots of sports on the TV (every Grizzly game!), pool, darts, outdoor seating. Good place, good people.

Salad!

The staff did not seem happy to be working there. The service was slow, maybe under staffed. The food was decent bar food.

Good food great service

Went there with a couple of coworkers on a Friday night. Very local atmosphere with a lot of regulars. I ordered a honey ale and it was pretty good. The bartender are super friendly.

Awesome place! Sam and Michelle are great and they make the best burgers. Come drink beer here

I came here to watch the Seahawks game. Good atmosphere, several big screen tv’s to watch football games. Every beer imaginable on tap, good food and service.

Every time I have been in there I have enjoyed it. It is always packed there, and a lot of times its groups of people. It can be difficult to get a pool table or dart board for that reason.Always a great beer selection. Our back there is covered and non covered if you would like to smoke while you enjoy your beverage.Parking in the front is limited.

Good

You are never welcome here. To be fair, the wait staff is very friendly and tries to do a great job. Unfortunately, their manager is one of the meanest and unhappiest people I have seen in a while. She is rude and acting obnoxious for no reason and this translates into unhappy personnel. There are plenty of good bars around - this is not one of them. I would stay away

Nice selection of ales and the food is really good. Great neighborhood hangout. Too bad I dont live closer.

Pub 85 is awesome. Always have fun. I just had the $10.99 Thursday steak special. One of the best steaks ever. The baked potato was awesome. The burgers I have had here are always awesome as well. Check them out. Lots of video screens to watch the games. The menus and offerings are on some of the screens. I love it.

Came here for a lunch to go. The lady getting order is so rude and makes extra charge without informing properly. Samsung pay works with the card reader but keep refusing to use it for the payment. I ordered cheese burger and billed for bacon cheese burger. Menu shows side salad will add just $1.59 and she charges $6 for dinner salad. Never want to come back!

Fantastic local pub. Good people, lots of beer, strong drinks.Great place to watch a game.Taking this up to 5 stars after the steak sandwich I just ate. Delicious.

Luis is great!!!

If I could give negative stars I would! I found this place on Google with quite a good rating and convinced my BF to walk down here for dinner and drinks. Unfortunately, it started with a ride person behind the bar, without a smile or welcome, what do you want? Wasnt thrilled with that response. My boyfriend ordered his beer by number (since they have like 40). She said whats the name of it?As if she couldnt be bothered to turn her head and look up to read the name. I also noticed the beer taps have both the name and number on them.) but because they only have a TV menu at their waitress serving station, we got our beers and let the woman know we were planning to also order food and are sitting over there. 45min to an HR later after a growling stomach, no server no food or even refilled beers in site, we walked to where we had ordered and asked who manages this place. Hahaha..now I get it..my first interaction was with the owner. Now I realize why I spent 10 instead of 100 at this place. The service was job existent and no greating, no thank you or smile even when I gave them my money for the beers! Dont go, dont recommend!

Tim is quite the human being. Open minded yet grounded down to earth type of cat...as well as a phenomenal bartender....and its the morning after for me.I was & am very pleased with him.. .Let me shine his nuts a lil more;)

Quality food with a great beer selection. Reminds me of all the good parts of the Midwest and it has free pool 7 days a week! Truly a Kirkland watering hole hidden gem admist the pretentious and overpriced alternatives

If I could give less than 1 star I would.... they do not follow through with phone orders, completely ridiculous that they can’t complete 1 little phone order!

Go there when Megan is bar tending! She is hands down the best!

This is the local watering hole if your up in the east side area. Good food, solid staff. So many beers on tap. Liquor selection is on point, and Mondays 5 dollars you call em!

Staff were very nice. Problem was there were not nearly enough staff for the number of people there. Also the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting so it makes us suspect on how clean there kitchen is.

Food was solid (had every fried food imaginable, so standard bar food). The selection of drinks was good but if youre a beer fan there is a LOT of fun things to choose from.The servers were friendly and knowledgable but they had nowhere near enough support for a Seahawks game. Again the servers there were GREAT but there was only one there for the floor with over 70 people out there at the same time (not counting the people at the bar).Will go back for the cleanliness, solid food, great beer, and good service...but if its busy and theyre understaffed again I might go down the block.

Laid back atmosphere, love that I can sit outside and play bean bag toss!!

Only one pub

Love this place! Great food and great service. Perfect place to watch a game

Tim and Sam rocked it!!! My friend and I just moved here and those two made us feel at home. Once Tim quoted Dexters Laboratory I was sold. Great drinks and nuthin but a good time!

Great place to meet people

Good basic bar food with an excellent selection of beers. Nice to watch the game and we will probably be back to watch a Sounders game sometime.

Great place, great staff, great food and drink. I come here all the time after work and the people are always friendly and the food is always good

Great beer selection. Friendly bar tenders. Good food.

This is a sexist establishment. When a woman won Pub 85s fantasy league, they changed the rules to make another team manager the winner... AFTER THE SEASON WAS COMPLETED! This is outrageous and they would have never done this had another man won the league. They are crooks.EDIT: The bartender/commissioner has stated he will make this right. Update will be posted upon his actually doing so. The bars owners behavior towards the winner is still disgusting, but at least the staff is not as bad as its leader.

Good bar food, relaxed, casual atmosphere. Nice bar staff. Tim is the best!

Nice pub full of regulars. Would rate 5 star if the karaoke was better.

Drinks was great. Atmosphere was good.

Best Mushroom burger and service

Straight forward, quality neighborhood bar. Good bar food, great prices and contrary to the older posts on poor customer service, the staff are very friendly. Were relocated from over seas and are very happy we have Pub 85 just around the corner.

Used to come for sports and it was a good place. Came in yesterday afternoon. They have a touch tunes juke box. We put on James Brown, Aretha Franklin, etc. the bartender (blonde, mid 40s woman) called out her disgust to our musical selection. Bar regulars then went customer to customer asking who put on the music. One man aggressively tapped on my husband’s arm to ask him if it was us who played James brown. We said no out of fear for our safety. We then paid our bill and left. This bar is not a place I would recommend.

Its bright and energetic. Sports bar with fun people

Seems ok, but the karoke night lady is whack. Even number of both genders in bar but so many more guys singing, and sets were ridiculously long, so youd only sing once maybe twice in a over two hour time. My friend tipped over ten dollars and didnt even get a second song, so tipping doesnt matter to her. Food was basic, drinks were fine. Company was great! All in all, ok trip.

It was ok. Food ok. Service bit less than ok, had to go to the bar to order during Seahawks game

Super friendly staff ... clean and smells good too ...Even noticed clorox wipes being used on the bar ... always good to know they like it clean

First off it smelled horrible in there second off they are very rude to you. We sat down as a family and were given weird looks from everyone especially from the bar tender. My brother was underage and she rudely asked for everyone’s ID and then made a huge scene and was extremely rude about it which was unnecessary. We will never be returning due to her attitude towards us.

Love Tim!! Hes the best and the food is pretty good for bar food

Classic pub. Good food, great drink selection, hard working staff.

Great Service and drinks, dont forget that yummy food as well.

Great place to have drinks a good time karaoke is amazing and bartenders are awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Great selection of draft beers. Micro brew Central. Weekend nights could be loud with karoake.

Great drinksRiddled with mosquitos. Ended up going for a few hours and found mosquitos alive and dead in the bathroomFlew in the door (left open)Also- if youre drinking alcohol youre more likely to get bittenI came back home with 13 bites

Unquestionably phenomenal bartenders!with positive attitudes. Great environment

Beer was good. Light pilsner. Burger was ok.

Tasty sandwiches (try the burger dip or the philly cheesesteak). Excellent selection of taps.

Employees there are friendly, funny, and attentive! Love this pub

Eric was an amazing bartender, definitely recommend coming to this place!
