Linda's has a quirky atmosphere and a rotating selection of beers from obscure to local to safe/popular. Fun specialty drinks and the food is good.
Roomy for a small bar, good music and neat patio.
Great Cap Hill chill spot for drinks. -

Linda's pt. 3, apparently. But opinions evolve as you learn when to go somewhere and when to avoid it, what to order, how attractive the servers are...
Anyway, after the Grilled Cheese Incident I stopped trying to come here for brunch. No point dealing with harried, pissy waittresses and people filming their thrift store shoes on Super 8. I also make it a point to not come on Fridays or weekends, because I don't like having to stand around by the pool table.
What I DID start doing is coming decently early, say 6:30 or 7, on weeknights. And ordering hot toddies, Fireball hot toddies, and some sort of hot apple thing from the very nice and very nice looking young man who seems to be serving every time I'm there. He's also enthusiastic about hot drinks so how can it be anything but a pleasant time? Linda's, you're upgraded. But don't get complacent.Listed in: My Girl Wants To Party All The…

Met up with an old classmate from 7-8 years ago and we came here for happy hour on a weekday. They have a great happy hour time slot, from like 5-8pm and it's pretty quiet up by the pool table and booths in the back so you can chit chat. Our server was very nice and checked on us just enough, not too much, not too little. They've got a happy hour specials on both drinks and food, very cool. We ended just having two beers each and sharing the chicken strips and fries - delicicous! A must try.
I've also been here on the weekends for drinks at night, very festive and lively, lot's of hipsters, lot's of fun. -

I came here for the Yelp Ugly Christmas Sweater Party. Luckily Riss had a sweater for me, so I didn't feel left out. The irony of the sweater made me feel more hipster. I think being a hipster is a requirement, but then again it is the Hill.
They have Happy Hour from 7-9 pm. Which is pretty much the coolest thing ever. Sure, I rarely go to Seattle during the week, but if I did, I would definitely stop in here. Cheap beer and cheap food is always ok by me. I just had a Manny's, because the waitress didn't really seem to know the beer selection, and I couldn't be bothered to get up off my ass and walk to the bar to see the 12 taps myself.
They have lots of $5 food specials too. I went with the chicken strips and fries, and for $5 it was a good amount of food and pretty good. They also have sliders which were apparently good, and a Happy Meal. The toy sucks, but $5 for a cheeseburger and fries is worth it. They also apparently have good deals on pitchers of beer.
The server did an awesome job of getting all of our food and drink orders and keeping all of our bills straight and getting everyone separate checks, which is impressive since people were coming and going over a 3 hour period.
Overall, a decent place to meet up with friends and make an ass of yourself and enjoy some cheap drinks and food on the Hill. -

Do it for brunch.
Do it for happy hour.
Do it when you're drinking.
Do it when you're drunk.
Do it when you want a BIG ASS plate of Nachos.
This place is an institution.
This is the last place Kurt Cobain was seen alive.
This place has veggie sausage.

I came here for breakfast on Sunday morning. There was still a lot of room inside since it had just opened. (what can I say, I'm an early bird)
I ordered the Ranchero Omelet which I had to smother with their green tabasco sauce... because I really like Tabasco and the Omelet was pretty ehh...
HOWEVER, the http://www.yelp.com/bi... seen here Buffalo Mary made my morning extra delicious! Yes my friends, that's a piece of Buffalo Jerkey you see there along with that very enticing pepperoncini. That stuff was GOOD.
And our service was very nice, even though I gave her a hard time since I couldn't make up my mind on what to order... Thanks Linda's Tavern for serving great Buffalo Mary's! -

Linda's is a fun stop on a bar hopping night - I wouldn't hang out there for super long because it's always loud and packed and it can be slow to get drinks, but it's a fun place to hipster watch. If you like boys with beards and beanies, this is your place!!

I like Linda's. I remember when Linda's opened and I hung out there quite a bit, but as my life and location changed, Linda's fell by the wayside for many years. I'm as surprised as anyone to find myself at Linda's all over again. Oh yes, there are much cooler places, newer, trendier and (the ultimate in trendy) LESS-trendy! But the staples keep 'em coming back, I guess.
One of the most shining of Linda's stars has always been the 7-9 HH. Why more bars in the area don't break with the 4-6 10-close mold is beyond me. 7-9 is the sweet spot where I need a happy hour.
Weekend brunch is reliable, comfortable and reasonably priced. Food and drink specials are always inventive, topical and well-played. The staff are lovely, fun and efficient. When weather permits, the back patio is legendary.
Thanks, Linda's. I affectionately goose you.Listed in: Swish Alps

EXCELLENT buffalo marys(bloody marys)!!! You get a huge piece of beef jerky in it, a pickled carrot(i've never had one and it was delicious), celery, a lemon, it had a nice little kick to it, and a cheap beer back. I had the eggs bene, it was different than what I am use to but still good. The sauce did not remind me of a hollandaise sauce, it lacked the creamy kick. But overall a great meal, wonderful hangover food(day after new years eve) and amazing bloody marys!!

Linda's is located smack dab in the middle of the party section of Pine Street, and it's a dive bar, plain and simple - ok, so it's maybe it's a little more upscale than a true dive bar like the Comet, but it's still dive-y. Ish. It's never truly clean, it's often occupied by raucous drunks, and more likely than not, it's staffed by a bunch of grumpy & sullen folks.
Which means I love it.
I've never been there for brunch, and maybe I've eaten there once of twice. Basically, I go to Linda's to get my drink on, and to watch people. Sometimes, I go to get my people on, and watch drinkers. Either way, it's a good time. The bartenders are not shy with their pours, for one thing. They have a decent selection of drafts, too, so the liquor is always flowing, even if the service is sometimes slow. They've got plenty of places to sit, a jukebox, a pool table, and a patio. What else does a bar need?
Perhaps I sweep all of Linda's faults under the rug because I've been coming here forever, or maybe because it reminds me of my absolutely favorite dive bar of all time (R.I.P Fore and Aft). All in all, it feels like...home.
One change that they've made that I simply can't abide - they've trashed their funky-cool website and now have a Facebook page. A Facebook page? Really? Urgh. That won't keep me away, but it gives me hives. -

What takes this place from 4 star to 5 is the back patio, especially on a nice day. A great place to hang out with friends at the end of the day. 5 stars in the short Seattle summer.
A bartenders are cool, and give great pours. The vodka rocks I just had was nice and stiff.
There's a pool table which seems to attract some real good local players if you want to be challenged.
Linda's is a local institution and is rockin all the time, every night of the week.
Bonus: Hot Momma's Pizza is right across the street. -

Went here for the first time last weekend with a friend. As it was after 12:30AM on a Friday night, I was quite happy we were able to immediately find a table and that placing drink orders only took a short while. The pours were reasonably strong and prices were good. The jukebox was... really good! Like, so good that I probably mentioned how good it was at least 3 times within the next hour. Looking forward to coming back here in warmer weather to try out the patio and maybe have some brunch...

How have I not written a review?
I come here all the time!
My favorite place to sit is the round booth or outside on the back patio.
I almost always bring my bar crawl here.
You can always make new friends here. And chat up your old ones.
I have so many memories here I can't even put them all into words right now.

This is my favorite place for brunch on the weekends. The tacos are delicious, mimosa pitchers are made using an entire bottle of champagne, and seating is never a problem if you show up at or before noon.
If this place weren't so crowded on weekend nights, I would give it five stars. Keep it up, guys! -

Cool bar. Never had the food or will.
Last time I was here I was pretty trashed, but I do remember it was Halloween and I was dressed as Che Guevera...AND I met Che at the bar, yup, Che.
I went to pay my tab at the bar and some dude said he was Che and wanted to know if I was Fidel or Che. With the sporadic and ugly beard of course I was Che. Doode showed me his ID (although later I found out he probably wanted to show me something else). Yup, product of hippie parents named this child Che. He then gave me his Che wristband which was a queue for my friends to pull me away.
Me has bad gaydar, I thinks peoples have the best intentions.
Cool place, sticky tables, bartender was pretty rad by charging me phone and the music is always playing something between sublime and trash metal. I'm down. -

I came here with a regular after dropping off a couple out of town friends during their visit. It was a perfect second bar to visit! I only wanted another beer at most. The bartender was super friendly. I love that they have an outdoor area so you can just chat and if you have a smoker with you it works out pretty well. I'll be back for sure!

The drinks - decent to good
The food - meh to aiiiiight
The service - asldkjflakshgl;nvlkda;ldsa
I was quite disappointed that they wouldn't make me a friggin' grilled cheese because it was before 3pm (and it was like 2:30) so I could dip it in my bloody mary! Is that not an amazing idea???!!! Well, it still hasn't been actualized because the waitress was too lazy to even ask the cook if he/she could slap a piece of cheese on some bread. I seriously would have fried it up myself on the hot, sun-kissed table we were sitting at had she just been able to get us some bread and cheese. BREAD AND CHEESE! It's so easy! I know you have it!

The breakfast here is so good! I ordered the veggie eggs benedict and it was delicious! I have a lot of friends who are regulars who convinced me to go with them and now i'm hooked! The service was great and all of the food looked so good, I can't wait to go back!
Also came here for late night happy hour. The pitchers of manny's were flowing quickly as the servers were very attentive, and my kid's happy meal/happy hour special was a treat! Excellent french fries! -

Rachel G. called this thing together. She did a great job. Finally got to meet the woman who stole,then sold my cart. She was too cool. I hope to hang with her again. Met Corinna,also cool. And the Yelp famous IPB.
Bloody Marys were on the agenda. And Linda's was the chosen place.
As soon as I walked in,I got Stage 4 DB Cooties. Yikes! I had to have a EXACT number to reserve a table. Settled on 4. Then got seated. Then Rachel showed. Corinna was next. Then IPB.
Ordering was a wait,wait,wait,drinks ordered. Wait,wait,wait,drinks came.
Legend precedes this place. Everything I've heard about it is true to the Nth Degree. The Floor show was most excellent. We were so out of place that we went unnoticed do to Self Absorption.
The drinks were mildly average. Too much pepper for me. Got my daily dose of Veggies though. After 2 drinks we blew that joint.
We left for Molly Moon's. Then to the park with our Ice Cream. Hung there for awhile.
I'd give this place more than 2 stars. But they don't serve Grilled Cheese before 3 PM. Those Bastards! -

What else can you say that hasn't already been said? Linda's stays true to what it is: a neighborhood chill out bar. Food. Drinks. Pool. Heated Patio. Great place to take out all your life stresses.
While I've been here a lot for late night prowls, I just had brunch and feel obliged to ramble.
First of all, we weren't originally planning on eating here, BUT just walking by we saw the line and were intrigued by the menu. So we took a glance and as my tummy rumbled I was already humming The Clash song "should I stay or should I go...?"
We found out it was only a 10 min wait and right there I decided to stay. Excellent choice all around....we were seated in like 5 minutes and immediately offered coffee and bloody marys. My favorite welcome to a new day =)
Ordering was fast and efficient. The short wait was filled with the ever so delightful viewing of the walls/posters/paintings in the light when you have more attention to detail slash can actually see and notice your surroundings.
I do love their concept. The owners know how to make you feel comfortable and yet a little non-traditionally Seattle. It's like your home away from home that happens to have a full bar, kitchen, animal heads on the wall, and of course the jukebox in the corner.
I ordered the eggs benny (my go to classic) and was delighted by the view. Delicious eggs on ham on an English muffin surrounded by hashbrowns. Me and my fork just about died and went to hollandaise sauce heaven.
My only qualm might have been that the egg was more cooked than I usually liked, but not specifying how I preferred the UBER ooey gooey goodness I had a 5 second fit with myself and then dropped it for the crispy potatoes that were already getting cold.
Yummy and sunday-morning worthy, Linda's brunch is a thing for Capitol Hillers to be themselves: hungover on the weekend =) -

oOh Linda...Linda, you are A-OK. I would like to say you are a little better than just ok, but sadly I can't.
Your staff never smiles, it's overly crowded, not very clean, and yes, I know you are a dive bar in essence, but you not a top notch dive bar. You do however have a good selection of brews and a good deal on pitchers, however, you called "last call" this weekend at 1:15..that's uber early? Is it not? lol. I do like you, it's fun to play pool there, it's just not my first pick when it comes to dive bars around the Hill. I would like you much more if your bouncer or ANY of your bartenders would crack a smile. It can go a long way :) -

~ probably-often-mentioned-fun-fact-that-i-still-imp ress-people-with: this bar is allegedly the last place kurt cobain was seen alive, so there is that.
linda's happy hour is tit; six dollar pitchers of olympia, [far superiour to ranier, ugh] the sliders and burgers are bomb and cooked to order, rare to medium. because come the hell on, if you are ordering something to be cooked medium-well to well, you are a giant moron and are insulting your meal by your hang ups. put on some big boy/girl pants and order it medium-rare already, you pansy ass.
every night they have a different burger on special, i had the veggiesaurus one night, and it was the best veggie burger i've had in months. sprouts and cheese and some other delicious bullshit, sign me up. and everything else on the happy our menu is seriously worth minuscule price.
and they sure pour their spirits with the intent of lighting a fire in your belly. heavy handed and stiff lipped, they know what's up.
also, it is generally a shit show here after happy hour winds down, and the staff is sober. so they aren't being assholes. drunks either skimp or splurge on tipping, so make sure you're hooking it up if you expect them to*.
great place to meet up with friends, heated outdoor patio, smoking area behind that, spacious inside, and a portrait of laura palmer above the bar, you cannot go wrong, really.
come during the week for a chill evening and a delicious burger. come during the weekend if you wanna get rowdy. order a burger, get a pitcher. you won't find anything to bitch about.
have yet to get brunch, guess i know what i'm doing on sunday.
* it seems a common misconception of the service industry that people working are there to serve you. fuck that, they are there to make money. it's their fucking job. so have some respect and understand this. if you're blowing it on gratuity a] you shouldn't be going out, b]they won't care because they aren't making any money to deal with your bullshit. -

First, a disclaimer: I've never had the brunch. I don't like crowded brunches. It's probably great, food-wise. Who knows?
Ok! So I've been to Linda's for drinks lots and once for food. The food was a no-go because, apparently, they close the kitchen for like.. I don't know, half an hour? On Sundays? We were bummed and left because I was in serious need of a burger. (Love you Mia's.)
So for the drinks, I guess I've been at weird times or whatever, I dont know, and the same guy always serves my party and me, and we call him Palm Tree Neck Tattoo Guy. If you're a regular then I'm sure you know who PTNTG is, and he's probably an awesome dude or whatever, but man... the service is seriously lacking. Sorry, PTNTG. I feel bad, I really do, but it must be said. I keep going back to Linda's because I love the space and the vibe, but I actually try to avoid being served by PTNTG, because the service is slow and inattentive.
So yeah, basically, this place is popular, and if you are into popular places and crowds and (probably) decent food and cool vibes, it's awesome. If you go at weird times because you like more room to breathe (guilty), try to avoid PTNTG. -

Linda's serves food for cowboys.
Although probably better as a bar, I have been to brunch at Linda's two times too many. Both times, I was underwhelmed with their breakfast foods. I could've made a better breakfast burrito in my sleep. Then I wouldn't have had to put on pants to eat it, when I woke up.
Also, there seems to be some major disconnect with the ordering of a BEERMOSA. I am unsure if the servers are just so busy, that they only hear the "beer" part, and bring you back a Pabst, or if the bartender is just fed up with all the alcoholism on the hill, and figures that anyone making up drinks ought to sober up with a tall glass of OJ, but Great Balls of Fire is it hard to get them to pour beer into a half-filled glass of orange juice around here.
Other than that, I dig the fact that their jukebox (muzak? 5-disc CD player?!?) only seems to carry Pearl Jam and Nirvana tunes, because this is the kind of music cowboys like to listen to while they eat sub-standard breakfast sliders and beerless-juice.
As far as food, I'd take the Canterbury over Linda's, any day or night. Hands down, or dukes up.
[Bar wise, I have been here and enjoyed myself, they'd got a delicious stout on tap and Halloween here is crazy.] -

For the amount of times my friends have been kicked out, we seem to end up here quite often...
There is definitely something to be said for how forgiving they are, LOL.
Sometimes they have these great drink specials. Once it was $5 for a shot of Tequila and a Tecate! I stumbled out that night with a light heart and a heavy wallet.
Even when it's busy you still get served relatively quickly.
Also they door guy on the weekends looks like Phillip Seymour Hoffman which sort of rules. -

Linda's positives are menu variety (delicious, spiked hot cocoa!), relative cheapness for neighborhood, outdoor bar area perfect for summer, and good service. I went there late on Thanksgiving night, and our table had a designated server who was quite attentive about checking in on us even though we had drinks but no food.
The main reasons I don't give this a higher star rating is that it has a major hipster vibe (not my thing), there's basically nothing special about it, and it seems dive on accident. Linda's is the kind of place I only plan on going to when invited by other people.
I haven't really tried the food there.Listed in: Aaron E. and me

Review from Liz M.

I have a feeling that Linda's is one of those places that either clicks with you or doesn't, and for me, there was not much in the way of sparks.
While I respect the bouncer is doing his job, would you mind letting us come in from the cold (and by extension not leaving the door open to freeze everyone else) before demanding IDs even as we are digging them out of our wallets? I didn't personally interact with the bartenders so no comments there, and there were two staff members who bustled around the floor taking orders and serving food and drink. Both seemed diligent and on the ball and are a major reason why I didn't rank Linda's lower. I didn't eat anything, and my rum & coke was fine but not good enough to entice me to order more than one.
The space itself is decently sized with a few booths and tables down near the bar (that our large party took over) and a more spacious upstairs collection of booths and tables. The place is popular enough that it was quite crowded on a Friday night and the disadvantage of our location was that there were a lot of people pressed up around the bar as well. The bathrooms were reasonably clean, but 2 bathrooms (one per gender) really isn't sufficient for the number of people that were hanging out, and waiting in the hallway is inconvenient as people are going back and forth to the outdoor patio. The music ranged from loud to painfully loud, which is never a good situation for me, and I was starting to get a headache by night's end.
While I had a good time, it was more related to the good company I was with than to the establishment. However, it didn't really do anything 'wrong' either. I'd come back if invited to some other event, but probably not of my own volition. -

Review from Sarah M.

My lovely former coworkers and some old college friends met up here last night and I was warned in advance that this place was a true dive bar. Perfect for our purposes, my friends arrived early and managed to snag the best big booth table in the joint.
I love how unpretentious this place feels and everyone there is truly there just to have a good time. The crowd was an unusual mix...mostly the artsy/hipster Capital Hill-types but everyone was friendly enough and tolerated our less-artsy demeanor.
So I wish I could rate this place higher but the service was really slow and not super friendly. The place was packed on a Saturday night and it's got to be a challenging place to keep on top of things...but we kept having to flag the server down all night which was annoying. The apple martini was good but the gimlet...not so much a fan. I guess normally they're sweeter but this one was so bitter, it was difficult to drink. But I can't complain since I didn't buy either...:) We ordered some fries, too, and they were good for bar fries. They didn't have enough salt but nothing we couldn't change.
All in all, a fun place - get here early if you want to get a good seat. Oh, and there's only one bathroom and there wasn't any TP all night...and the bathroom door doesn't lock so beware. -

Headed here for brunch on Sunday morning to find a queue (with coffee) waiting for a table, so my friend and I opted for the bar. The menu was basic, yet probably has at least one thing to satisfy any craving. My choice... the Rio grande omelet... YEAH!!!! Loads of bacon, cheese, tomatoes (which I requested be left off) avocado paired with some incredibly good hash browns. Both items had some incredible seasoning that set the meal apart from all of my other omelette experiences. Your choice of bread and this was a flavored packed, stomach filling meal.
Dare I say this was pub grub with a kick? Sure... and it was well worth the trip!
Oh.... the bloody mary's.... yeah, get one of those!!!! -

Had my second brunch at Linda's after a haircut at Aveda :))......hubby ordered the huevos rancheros, again, and it was as good as the last time.......they have a number of south of the border options to kick start your day......last time I had the omelette with veggies with a side of blueberry pancakes........but this time i had sauteed veggies with has brown and choice of cheese with toast .......i also ordered a short stack (2) of their bluberry pancakes .........the veggies and hash browns were crispy but lacked salt n pepper ........i asked for provolone cheese on top which was perfect........blueberry pancakes were fluffy and tasty with freshest blueberries inside, the sweet butter and syrup were icing on my pancake "cake" :)))......
the only thing i didn't like was the long wait for the food to come, 30 minutes to be precise............hubby had to rush back to the car to fill in more quarters for the roadside parking........30 minutes is a really long wait esp if ur coming for brunch!!!.......i hope I have a better experience next time.
plus their website doesn't work (http://www.lindastaver...) -

As a bar, Linda's is so pretentious. Unless you're a cutesy hipster white girl, staff and clients ignore you. As a brunch place, the food is between 'ok' (mimosa pitchers, hash browns) and 'gross cardboard' (biscuits).

I liked the crowd at lindas BUT my friend and I waited forever to get a drink when the bartender wasn't even serving anyone else. Ruined the whole experience...
