Columbia City Ale House
4914 Rainier Ave S, 723-5123

The owners of the Hilltop Ale House and the 74th Street Ale House have done it again, crafting a cozy neighborhood pub with a vast selection of microbrews and fantastic food--this time in Columbia City. The Ale House, warmed up with rich wood paneling and hosting the occasional live-music group on a stage near the front windows, is a huge draw for folks in the area. Go to debate politics, catch a baseball game on television, have dinner, or just chill out--all over beer, of course. AMY JENNIGES
