The Swallow Bar

So happy to see a second gay bar open up in White Center. The drinks are strong and the music is good. A good mix of people have been there the two weekends I have gone and I expect it will get busier over the summer months. We have a good ol bar, thats not on the hill, and just as good (if not better). Looking forward to many a weekend night at the Swallow!

This is one of my favorite bars! The staff is genuine, non-judgmental and very friendly. I learned that all the music I loved growing up in the 1980s was sung by gay people, LOL! I learn a lot about music, art and film over my IPA. Everyone is welcome there I have never felt uncomfortable as a cis white straight man. They wont tolerate BS or if your face doesnt match your ID.

Its a little bit of capitol hill in West Seattle. The Swallow is the sister bar of Pony (capitol hill) with a similar vibe. Its a fun 70s Sailor Dive bar with weekend dancing and some really stiff drinks.

My friends and I love this bar. Super fun to have a place in White Center that is gay-friendly and chill. Definitely going to come back.

Is there no a/c system here? Jesus...and a deep eddys cost me $10 for a 10oz pour, you kidding me?

Wouldn’t let my 25 yo friend in apparently because he’d grown a beard that wasn’t pictured in his state ID. /rolls eyes

I love how low key The Swallow is. The staff is always great too
