i sampled Harry’s fare at Bev Place Pub yesterday.
.
the fried chicken was intensely flavorful, with breading like a crispy herb biscuit surrounding the meat.
.
pulled pork sandwich was surprisingly fresh, reminiscent of a po’ boy.
.
potatoes were satisfyingly simple.
.
the only weak spot (IMHO) was the collard greens. nothing wrong with them, just too plain for my taste. could use some bacon fat and/or vinegar, and a dousing of hot sauce after serving.
.
all in all, an exciting portent!

Please tell me you’ll have some fried pickles too! Can’t seem to find any good ones in Seattle and miss them! :)

Thanks everyone- we have posted a menu on our door and will put up more info at our Facebook page. Can’t tell you how excited we are and how happy we are to be a part of such a great neighborhood. See you soon.

It’s not directly in the ‘hood, but darn close: Marco Polo’s broasted chicken in Georgetown/SODO is tasty too!

Chicken Delight…That brings back memories. I was a delivery driver there in high school. It was perfect; minimum wage and all the leftover chicken a teenager could eat.

“C.D. was either on same block as Bev. Place or one block north. Ours was delivered via a V.W. Bug.(yellow of course).

“Let them” – I often try to tell our teenage son, again, the tale of Chicken Delight – at least where I remember it from (Los Angeles and Honolulu) – “broasted chicken” delivered in stapled-together paper/cardboard plates. “Don’t cook tonight, call Chicken Delight!” – TR

With the “Homestead” gone. And “Chicken Delight” being long gone. Looking forward to trying this new place. Whoever remembers “Chicken Delight”– you are showing your age.

I live nearby and I’m looking forward to visiting often. Will the menu have mashed potatoes to go?

I’m not actually psychic, but I predict a 10 pound gain this year. And they’ll have collard greens!!

I hope it’s wonderful, local would be great because it’s a long drive to the Hop In in Renton for scrumptious fried chicken!

They brought in chicken to Bev Place for the Super Bowl. It was amazing! The guy said they’ll be open for take out next week.
