    Wow. I'm blown away by the mixologists' talents. Needle and Thread surpassed my expectations. First off, love the ambiance. It's cute and cozy, just the right setting for some really good drinks. Good music in the background to set the mood with lots of small groups. A great place for a date or catching up with friends. My gfs sat at the bar, which is the prime spot to watch the magic unfold. I'm so impressed by how attentive and detailed the mixologists are. This is truly a craft and they have it down. It's really hard curating bespoke drinks on the spot for each person with very different flavor profiles. They nailed the drinks! OMG. I was so happy. Even their bar snacks are great. The olives and popcorn chicken were delicious. I can't rave enough about this place. This is my second bespoke speakeasy experience. The other one is in San Diego. Both are amazing. It appears the bespoke experience is the next phase of speakeasies and I'm digging it. If you know what you like, then this is the place for you.

    This is the place we bring friends to from out of town. Highly recommend because it's such a unique experience. There's no menu and they get better at making drinks to your taste the more drinks you order and more input you give. The bartender did different riffs on seasons for me after asking about my preferences and it was amazing! It's a very intimate setting and we all had a great time at the corner table. We also had some snacks because you can order off the tavern law menu, and I highly recommend the Mac and cheese.

    After two experiences, both of which were amazing, I'm already looking forward to returning again! The second time, the drink they made for my friend was so good, we couldn't stop talking about it the rest of the night. Our server even gave us the ingredient card and I will definitely be bringing it back to request again. I prefer bourbon drinks and all but one here was a hit! I highly recommend Needle and Thread as a place to bring out of town visitors for a fun and unique drink experience. Just remember to make reservations!

    What a wonderful experience and by far the best drinks my groups and I had during our visit to Seattle. This place isn't just a place to grab a drink and feel like you're in a hidden bar. It is truly an experience that is meant to be individualistic. The friendly staff greets you and seats you after you've phoned in that you are there. The staff member sat us down and then got down to our level to ask for our drink preferences to make sure they nailed the drink our palate desired. I felt as if it were a drink experience and a therapy session in one. And what the bartender prescribed definitely did the job. The wait for the drink is a bit lengthy but it is all part of the experience and it is more than worth the wait when your drink arrives. My entire group agreed that it was the best drink we had on our trip to Seattle. We made this place a priority and I am so glad we did. Wonderful staff, amazing drinks and definitely a speakeasy. It's nearly impossible not to be completely satisfied when you visit this place.
