The Best of Hands Barrelhouse at 35th and Webster opened on March 8 2019, about a year before the pandemic really took hold and just before the closure of the West Seattle Bridge.

But they announced via social media and citing pandemic recovery, and rising costs that they will close as of November 30.

"Best of Hands Barrelhouse will be closing our doors for good on November 30th of this year.

As many of you know we were only open for normal operations for a year before the pandemic hit. Unfortunately, among other things, the toll of the pandemic, the slower than expected recovery, and the skyrocketing costs of everything from CO2 to raw ingredients has made it unsustainable for us to continue to operate even with our current skeleton crew.

We'd like to thank everybody for their support and interest through the years.
