The Pine Box is a familiar staple of Seattle’s beer scene, and for good reason. Located an easy climb from downtown or an easy descent from Volunteer Park, the Pine Box is housed in a building that was once a funeral home known for hosting Bruce Lee’s funeral in 1973. With comfortable booths and plenty of room, the Pine Box has one of the best-curated beer lists in the city—including hard-to-get kegs like Holy Mountain, Cloudburst, and Machine House, as well as a smattering of great out-of-state and even international beers. They recently had the famous Rodenbach Grand Cru on tap, a Flanders red ale made in Belgium that consistently ranks as one of the best beers in the world.
Their happy hour happens daily from 3 to 6 p.m., and it gets you $1 off every draft or a pint of Firestone Walker’s DBA for $4.
