Skagit River Brewery

Stopped in after the Bellingham marathon with a big group.  Sat us pretty quickly for a busy day.  The food and drink service was slow, but we were a big group.  Staff was friendly and food was perfect pub menu so that made up for the timeliness.

My wife and I went on the Saturday Labour Day weekend on a recommendation. I was a little nervous about a long line up at 7pm on a Saturday but we were seated right away. The waitress came promptly to take our drink order and the drinks came promptly and the waitress took our order. Our food came promptly as well. I ordered the bangers and mash. The sausages were only warm but tasty. The mash was great. Hot, lot's of it with a nice gravy and fried onions. My wife ordered the BBQ pulled pork. The menu didn't make it clear it was a on a bun. The cole slaw was a very small portion, the fries were OK and I thought the BBQ pulled pork could have been piled a bit higher but my wife said it was tender and tasty. The beer was fine but I am not a beer connoisseur.
Overall, we were very impressed with t the service and happy with the food. I would come again.

Don't go if you have a large party. We called in advanced to reserve a table so that was set up....but not with place settings or anything. In fact they had another large party over ten next to ours with just the one server for both. Needless to say we did not have speedy or complete service..friendliness and communication was kept to just what was necessary . I served our water and silverware. I have eaten here on a few occasions and it was good...tonight was not one of them. Our food was cold and kinda tasteless and served without much fanfare. The biggest disappointment was the mussels and clams. You get a handful with a tiny bit of broth and very dry bread. It was not up to their standards. I think Denny's would have had better food and service. For less money! :(

***** I have to give them props. They promptly called today to see how they could fix this situation for me and to let me know they were sorry for my unhappy visit. In the past I have always had wonderful food and great service so I am guessing this was just a very off night for them. Will have to go back when I come home :)
