Neno was great and the best cocktails. I drove 19 hours from lowly SoCal to get these delicious bevs. I met my soul mate here and we’re both so happy. Drinks were delish.

This place was my favorite stop while bar hopping in Seattle. The ambiance and drinks were amazing! Also, I asked the bartender about the history of the location and man was Christian informative!! I loved listening to the eclectic past. The Diller Room is a must do!

Rob Wilson and gang were amazing! The vibe is very low key. Almost like a speak easy vibe, the drinks taste great you pay for what you drink they also make basic ones as well. Highly recommend will be coming back.

OMG ! Can I just say if you have not ventured out to The Diller Room YOU ARE MISSING A SLICE OF HEAVEN. Centered in the middle of Seattle’s downtown entertainment, the service is luxury , the drinks are beyond your wildest taste buds. A must try!!!

We stumbled in here on a whim after the Bill Speidel underground tour and the Diller Room is an absolute MUST! Customer service is impeccable, and the Old Fashioned is honestly in the top 3 I have ever had! Rob is an incredible host and made the experience incredibly memorable… read more for us.

Great selection of bourbon! Shout out the Bartender, he poured me a sample of the Eagle Rare 10 barrel pick(Delicious)!

Neno was my bartender and my whole experience was amazing! He was super accommodating and knowledgeable, I tried so many whiskys and he goes above and beyond for his guests!! Greatest bar in Seattle so far thanks to this person and his hospitality!!

Amazing service! Alex was awesome. Best espresso martini I’ve had on seattle so far

Christian was great! He was sweet to Grandma. The drinks were lovely! If we weren’t from out of town, we’d return because of Christian. Give Christian a bonus.

If you haven’t been here yet, you’re seriously missing out — mostly because of Neno. Hands down the best bartender there. He’s fast, fun, always on point with the drinks, and honestly? Way too cute for his own good. Pretty sure half the reason people keep coming back is just… read more to see him behind the bar. 🍸💖

Bottom line, if you’re looking for the quintessential Bourbon experience in Seattle, this is your spot. They have bourbon here that has been absent in North America for 50 years. And they’re knowledgeable about all of them. Enjoy!

Christian, our bartender was such a vibe! Traveling from Florida, he was knowledge on his drinks and the city. I had their classic mezcal drink and it was the perfect afternoon drink. Not only that, he showed us Diller’s bourbon bottles and we were intrigued! We ended up getting the… read more Eagle Rare bourbon bottle. So worth it!
