Rob Roy sits on 2nd Avenue in Belltown, a cocktail bar built around classic technique and named for the drink it takes its cues from. The bar program has drawn national attention: the James Beard Foundation named its bartenders semifinalists for Outstanding Professional in Cocktail Service in both 2025 and 2026, and named the bar itself a finalist for Outstanding Bar Program in 2023.
Regulars describe a room with real Belltown energy — busy and social, with bartenders who clearly care about the craft behind the bar. That attention comes with premium pricing, and drink quality can vary from visit to visit, but the welcoming atmosphere and service keep people coming back.
