Indoor or outdoor seating and dogs welcome. Huge array of drinks available with a connected burger and pizza vendors, or bring your own food from home or other local vendors. Great friendly atmosphere with a kids area too. What’s not to like.

Great bar, 48 well-chosen craft taps. They have a modern beer board that shows live keg status, so their website also reflects a live tap status. Pretty cool. Meanwhile, a nice kids area and a connected lil Woodys hamburgers and a pizza place. Tons of seating all around. Highly recommended.

We love beer star! We moved to Burien summer of 2019 and sadly didn’t really find this place until a year later. We love all of there draft options and the fact that our dog Matilda can come inside too is great. Super friendly staff and always nice patrons makes this a superb spot to grab a beer (or a cider) and hang out. Oh and the owners are super friendly and we always appreciate their hospitality!

We had such a wonderful experience here last night. The staff were delightful, the beer selection great, and there was fantastic outdoor seating well spaced out. The whole experience felt very safe! And, the owner was incredibly gracious, checking in on us several times and expressing his gratitude for our patronage. At a time when we are all so isolated, it was really nice to feel a part of a community. Plus, the owner’s dog couldn’t be sweeter...an extra treat!! Can not recommend enough!!

Rad Beer Selection. Great service. You can bring in your own food. There is a family area and just an adult area. Cute little kids area for kids to play. There is a bar you can sit at or tables for adults where kids are not allowed. They have a small selection of food items you can purchase. 42 beers on tap. Have red and white wine for thoes that want wine. A huge selection of beer you can come in and purchase to take home. There are growlers to go. Great atmosphere to come and hang out.

I stopped in to the new Lil Woodys, and surprise, surprise... It shares a space with a new joint called Beer Star.I browsed the cooler section while waiting on my burger, which is the rather obvious plan of their marketing strategy.Lots and lots of craft beers from all over, with smaller sections for wine, and fruit cider.The bar is long, and the place is brightly lit. The ambience is more like a large cafe than a bar.The bar tender was extra friendly, once he was done with his iPhone.I bought a couple bottles of something new to try with our burgers. My rating might change after I spend more time there.But the way, at 7pm on a Thursday, the place was mostly full. Not crowded, but a nice crowd.

If you’re a parent looking for a place you can come with your kids to grab a libation from an extensive selection, I couldn’t think of a better place for you.If you are NOT a parent, however, and are looking for a relaxing spot for a drink after work, this might not be your first choice.The selection in the fridges and on tap is good. A few other notes - this is a pet friendly spot that usually has a few dogs present at any given time. Parking is whatever you find on the street, usually a couple blocks away.Beer Star sells snacks (for both humans and dogs) but there are two food court style restaurants in the same open floor plan and you can take the food into Beer Star, which is where most of the seating is. Lil Woody’s burgers had been in there for a while and the other food stand is currently pizza.

Each time Ive gone here Ive enjoyed myself. Sure, it has to do with being around friends, but this place is very casual, has a huge selection of beers, and is very open-spaced. Its a nice place to just chill or pick up a few bottles of something youve never tried. Will go again. Also, the staff is nice and will recommend different brews to try. Which I really appreciate.

A regular spot for me - since when did White Center become a hang out place?Pros:1. Awesome staff2. Food trucks/stalls next door, close kind of early so check the time if youre planning to eat3. Bring your own food, chips, or buy from the shelves4. Great beers, wide selectionsCon1. Parking can be tough, I dont remember White Center being this busy a couple years ago 😅 still worth it

This family Beer Hall was an ideal place for our dog birthday party! Coopers one year old party was a big hit with his fellow pugs, as well as all the other dogs in attendance. From pug to Great Dane every dog got its share of admiring children. The manager / owner? Went out of his way to help us put together enough tables. And this during probably the busiest time. Of the beer hall week.I had a very pleasant time sharing the afternoon with friends, dogs, our potluck and the 4-oz sampler tray of our hosts dozens of superb beers...

First time here and I was impressed. Lots of beer to select from on tap and even more in the cold case. Great seating with lots of TVs and its connected to a pizza place. They even have a little kids area for the little ones. I recommend and will definitely be back.

Review №53

Met up with a buddy here for a quick drink. Amazing beer selection. It is connected to Lil Woodys next door for food.This place is very family friendly. I had my 3 month old daughter with me and there were at least 3 other groups of kids there on a Thursday evening. They have a small play area and a whole wall for the kids to draw on with chalk.I believe this stay at home dad has found his new favorite meet up spot.

First time here and loving the huge selection of items on tap. Turn around and theres even more selection in bottles and cans in their 10 or so built-in fridges. Friendly and helpful bartenders. Lots of indoor and some outdoor seating. Gets loud on Fridays, as it should I guess :)

Great place for even the most divided (food preference wise) couples. My husband loves the beer, I love all the food options and rootbeer floats. Dog friendly, attached to 2 different restaurants. Play area for young kids and many TVs typically set to sports. Lots of take home beer options, friendly staff, relaxed place. Great place to hang out, grab a drink and enjoy company.

Review №63

I was really excited about this place. For one because I thought it was just like the Beer Junction in West Seattle, but the selection of beer to buy was small, the selection of beer to drink was huge though. It does have a lot of seating and from what I have been told you can order food from the surrounding restaurants and the restaurant will bring it to you. That is nice. Helps build the community.

During Covid they are putting a bottle of hand sanitizer at each table, seating people very far apart and doing a great job of distancing, wearing masks and keeping everything clean!

Nirvana for beer geeks. Vast selection with excellent descriptions makes it accessible to the general public.Cool concept, incorporating a market (limited. Think beer friendly snack food. And beer/cider) and the adjacent restaurants.Has a real neighborhood center feel to it. Somewhat loud.

Beer Star is a great place to meet up, have a beer/cider/wine/root beer or take a bottle home with you. Theres a great staff working behind the bar, so you can enjoy the friendly atmosphere as well. Bring your dog or your kids and have a great time in this newly remodeled gem of a bar/bottle shop!

Review №74

What keeps it from a five star rating? Too many kids running about like its Chucky cheese. I dont have kids and dont care for their howls. But the space is great with high vaulted timbers, a semi-industrial design, comfortable tables and friendly service. Two restaurants adjoin the space and offer burgers and a modern take on Chinese-American.

Beer Star is beyond great. We live bringing our dog here. The beer selection is awesome. The small snack options a perfect and being so close to larger dining establishments is a big perk. The staff are amazing, if you run into the owner youll be pleasantly surprised to see him pouring pints, kissing babies and feeding treats to the puppers hanging out. I couldnt speak more highly of this place. Its a favorite in White Center and my wife and I always bring friends here.

Im not a beer drinker, but my husband is, and I do like cider occasionally. Beer Star has a killer selection of beer (and cider!) and a terrific environment to sit and enjoy with friends. They did an amazing job remodeling the space. I like that you can bring food in from CTO or Lil Woodys, too. Nice addition to WC.

Excellent beer bar and beer store akin to Chucks Hop Shop, but with more and better seating. Kid friendly, dog friendly, amazing hang out place. Bring your own food from any of the amazing restaurants in White Center. Patio seating, air conditioning inside, TVs for sports watching but not a sports bar. Good music on the stereo. All beverages are on tap, including beer, cider, wine and root beer. Beer and wine bottles and cans to buy to bring home. Nothing bad to day about Beer Star, my new favorite place to hang out.
