Clever Bottle

*** In Short *** Chill, quiet bar with interesting, but lackluster drinks. *** In Depth *** Granted, it was a Tuesday evening, and Seattle folks don't seem to drink nearly as much as us San Franciscans. But, having had dinner (and drinks) earlier at List, our next stop was, naturally, more drinks! After a great deal of searching and deliberation, my friend and I ended up giving Clever Bottle a go, trying their rum and rye old fashioned, as well as the angel and the fool. While others have experienced weak, watered-down drinks, we experienced quite the opposite: drinks that were almost a little too strong, not particularly well balanced, and tasting primarily of booze and bitters. Now, if that's your thing, this is totes the spot for you! I mean, my friend loved the place, so to each their own, but I'll be sticking to other bars on future visits. ***Accessibility Info*** Venue - Seating was a bit sparse, from what I remember, with a few high tops, some high top counter seating, and possibly some outdoor seating. Plenty of space to maneuver about as long as the place isn't packed, but finding a proper height table may be difficult. Bathroom - Accessible!

Great cocktails but horrible service. It took forever for someone to come over and then a drink was forgotten in our first order. We planned to order a second round but no one ever came by so we opted to go elsewhere.

Clever is the perfect combination of a fancy feel without the pretense of being too fancy. They make incredible cocktails!

Great atmosphere. Good drinks. Pricey. Bar tender is not good with customer service.

Great little bar. Drinks are always delicious and bartenders are super friendly

Outstanding cocktails if a little on the spendy side. Happy hour is a good deal.

Only been here for happy hour, but a cool location, cool ambiance, with great drinks and a great hh.

One of the best places to go in Belltown. Team here clearly love the time they spend with you, and make you feel at home the moment you cross the threshold
