The menu itself is a well-curated celebration of Northwest-inspired flavors and pub classics. For starters, their Blonde Ale Battered Fish and Chips delivers golden, crispy perfection with flaky, tender fish inside, perfectly complimented by a cold Northwest Blonde Ale on tap. Burger lovers will delight in the Jalapeno Poppers Burger with Beyond Meat Patty or the decadently bold Bacon Peanut Butter Burger, a creative pairing of smoky bacon and creamy peanut butter that’s indulgent without being overpowering.

Not to be missed are the Front Street Tacos and the soulful Steak & Stout Chili, both crafted with layers of rich, savory flavor that showcase the kitchen’s dedication to hearty comfort food. For those craving a bit of nostalgia, special menu items like the Knotty Mary with Skewer and the DKB Root Beer Float — made with Diamond Knot’s very own house-brewed root beer — offer delightful, playful treats that perfectly balance traditional pub fare with unique twists.

Beer aficionados will be immediately impressed by Diamond Knot’s masterful lineup on tap. Standouts include the Northwest Blonde Ale, light and flavorful with a bright floral aroma and a clean, refreshing finish, and the Lower Deck Lager, a crisp, citrus-driven brew ideal for easy sipping. Those who prefer a touch of fruitiness should try the rotating guest tap featuring the Wildberry Berry Cider, a vibrant medley of blackberry, elderberry, raspberry, and strawberry that guests rave about for its bright, juicy character.

Reviews from patrons illuminate the genuine warmth and quality that permeate every visit. Jennifer Pahlman notes the joy of enjoying games here alongside fresh, homemade root beer and creative ciders. Loyal customers like Lynn return time and again for the “good vibes as a local brewery,” praising the friendly staff and family-friendly environment that often fills up come weekends. While some have pointed out occasional slow kitchen service, the consistently helpful and accommodating team—exemplified by servers like Tara, as shared by Sgt. Mike—more than makes up for it with their attentive and personable approach.

Some guests cherish the unpretentious yet dynamic food variety, from crispy hash browns to the ever-popular Brewpub Wings and indulgent Hog Heaven Mac ’N Cheese, while others appreciate the canning options to take favorite brews home — available in convenient 6-packs or cases of 24. Yes, the aroma of smokier dishes can linger at times, and the buzz of a busy weekend may fill the space, but these are minor notes in an otherwise compelling symphony of taste, ambiance, and local pride.
