Bathtub Gin & Co.

Bathtub Gin & Co. is a cocktail bar tucked behind a wooden door at 2205 2nd Avenue in Belltown, Seattle. The bar occupies the former boiler room of the Humphrey Building, a substantial older apartment building with decorative terra cotta details. Its multi-level layout gives the venue a tucked-away, intimate character, while the building’s history adds a sense of place without turning the setting into a formal attraction.

The drinks program centers on classic cocktail technique and balanced combinations. Alongside familiar styles, the bar offers house cocktails with a thoughtful, ingredient-led approach rather than an overtly flashy presentation. The menu also includes a broad range of spirits, with gin, whiskey, scotch, tequila, mezcal, rum and vodka represented. Bartender guidance suits guests who want to explore a new spirit or settle into a familiar classic.

Inside, the mood is cozy, low-key and designed for conversation. The compact setting and attentive bar service make the space a natural fit for date nights, quiet catch-ups and small groups seeking a more personal evening. A decorative bathtub adds an unusual visual detail to the interior and reinforces the bar’s name without overwhelming the overall atmosphere.

Bathtub Gin & Co. works best for guests who value cocktails, spirits and an unhurried pace. The bar welcomes private gatherings and group events in a space where privacy and atmosphere are central, with drinks and service adaptable to the feel of the occasion. Its late-night schedule also suits evenings that begin after dinner or continue beyond the usual bar hour.

The venue opens nightly from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. and maintains a distinctly indoor, bar-focused experience. Bathtub Gin & Co. is a fit for adults looking for a conversation-friendly cocktail setting, a spirit-led night out or a small private gathering in one of Belltown’s older buildings.
