#1186 #S724 - Wedgwood Ale House, Seattle - 7/17/2010
A very friendly and comfortable old neighborhood joint, dominated by the horseshoe-shaped bar. The Wedgwood now has three distinct sections: the bar in front, the pool room in back, and the expanded dining area in between for special occasions. There's also a pleasant patio out front.
This area of town is lucky to have two fine, vintage bars like this and Fiddler's Inn.
Historical Notes: The first mention I can find of a bar at this location is Hansen's Tavern, from 1939 through 1944, when it begins to be listed as the Wedgwood (or sometimes "Wedgewood") Tavern. I have not been able to confirm that the current building is that old, but that seems likely based on my conversation with the bartenders. The current owners have had the place sine 1992.
