SEATTLE, Washington – Reuben’s Brews, a family-owned and award-winning craft brewery founded in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood, is thrilled to announce the upcoming opening of its newest taproom in downtown Seattle. Set to open in early summer 2025, the new location at 1201 First Avenue brings Reuben’s signature hospitality, community-first mission, and expertly crafted beers to the heart of the city.
Just steps from top attractions like Pike Place Market, the Seattle Art Museum, and the city’s waterfront, the Reuben’s Brews Downtown Taproom will offer an inviting space for both locals and tourists. The expansive venue will feature 28 taps pouring a rotating selection of beer, cider, hard seltzer, and non-alcoholic options, along with a full menu of American pub fare designed to pair perfectly with the brewery’s lineup.
Guests can enjoy indoor and outdoor seating, flat-screen TVs broadcasting Mariners, Seahawks, and Sounders games, and a convenient to-go beer station for freshly packaged brews. Whether you’re grabbing a pint before a stadium event or meeting up with friends downtown, Reuben’s new taproom aims to be a go-to gathering spot.
“Beer builds community, and this new space helps us reach even more people—locals, commuters, and visitors alike,” said Grace Robbings, co-founder of Reuben’s Brews. “It also expands our ability to give back through the Reuben’s Brews Foundation and our work with nonprofit partners.”
The space, which creatively blends a former grocery store and fashion retailer, reflects the brewery’s outside-the-box approach. “We’re excited to be part of downtown’s revitalization,” added co-founder Adam Robbings. “This new taproom checks all the boxes—great location, welcoming space, and room for future events, watch parties, and entertainment.”
Reuben’s Brews will announce its official grand opening date in the coming weeks, with plans for a weekend-long celebration featuring exclusive beer releases, family-friendly activities, and fun giveaways.
