Reviews for Chainline Brewing Company Taproom at Urban in Kirkland, WA

This used to be one of our favorite breweries in Washington. They used to make fantastic IPAs and their Hazies were top notch... and always fresh.\n\nOnce their old location closed and they opened Urban, it was just never the same. Not sure if there is someGoogle backing at their two locations and therefore no need to be innovative or have the best brewers but really wish it wouldgo back to their old selves. Read more

Edit: Well apparently, a new location is slated to open up right back along the CKC, probably within a stone\'s throw of the old... location. This is great news!\n\nNo longer a bicycle pub. I sorely miss when this brewery was right alongside the Cross KirklandCorridor and had front and back bike racks. The front rack was inside, away from thieving eyes. There used to be a back patiothat gave a great view to the corridor and the lake and was a welcomed site to cyclists passing by. It was the perfect location.There was no other place like it in the area.\n\nEver since it moved to the new location, that cycling spirit seems to have beenlost. I blame Google for demolishing the old brewery building for more office space, though I don\'t know the wholestory.\n\nThe new location has no indoor bike parking and there\'s no proper space to chain my bike to that\'s close to thebrewery unless you want to chain it to some railing. Where is the dedicated bike rack?\n\nFeels like the bicycle-based namedoesn\'t really fit anymore.\n\nThey still do beer well, but the bicycle spirit really died when they moved. Read more

They always have a good mix of classics and new seasonal beers on tap. The rotating taps are always fun to try and often... delicious! There\'s a decent selection of snacks but I think you can also bring your own food if you want. The outside patio isgreat on sunny days. Read more

Asked the beertender to top off my beer once the foam died down and he said no and I said oh okay. We?ve been here multiple... times the last two weeks and it?s always been filled up. His response was ? welp don?t know what to tell you?\n\n?? great beerhorrible customer service tonight which is a bummer since usually love this place and visit often. Will think twice beforereturning. Read more

Excellent brew selection and friendly staff in a pleasant atmosphere. Seating inside and covered outside.

I?ve been here countless times and it?s always great.\n\nThere?s ample seating inside and out. The outdoor seating is covered in... the fall/winter. It could use heaters, but a warm jacket does the trick.\n\nThey are super dog friendly and will provide waterbowls upon request.\n\nFood is tasty. I?ve ordered a few pizzas and the guacamole.\n\nBeers are fabulous - juicy, crisp, fresh.No complaints. Read more

Nice and pleasant outdoor seating and great beer to top it all. We went for hazy IPA and IPA. Both were tasty and worth the time... spent there. I really wish they could stretch on their closing hours. 8pm is little too early given on sunny evenings in summer.I would visit it again during fall evenings mainly because of their outdoor seating ????

Kicked off my Eastside brewery tour with Chainline. Def a solid place to visit. Of the beers I tried the hazy IPA (tune up) and... their black lager (limited, not pictured) were my favorites. The pretzel was giant and super good, served with cheese andmustard. Really nice outdoor seating and tasty beers makes this an easy living spot that I?ll be coming back to! Read more
