2 Best Bars in The Central District, Seattle

Inspired by the concept of a London pub, co-founder Rodney Hines opened Métier with the idea of creating a community space for the Central District. The creative lineup of beers deviates from the standard hop-heavy menu at many of Seattle’s microbreweries. From the food sourced from That Brown Girl Cooks (a local catering company celebrating Black food traditions), to the art on the walls commissioned from local BIPOC artists, the brewery is true to its roots.

This neighborhood microbrewery specializes in a rotating selection of small-production, in-house beers, with a focus on IPAs, lagers, and stouts. If you work up an appetite, the kitchen specializes in Mexican fare: fish tacos, mushroom-stuffed quesadillas, shrimp ceviche, and chips and guac make a perfect pairing with one of Standard's pale ales.
