We went to Rachel's ginger beer at the Spheres. We went there for the sole purpose of purchasing a growler of ginger beer. We ended up buying two after tasting a couple of their amazing flavors. After we paid and spent over $60 we were talking about it and decided we would like to get one more. When we went back up to the counter to ask the server for one more sample she gave us such an attitude and told us we have already had a lot of samples. At that point we just should have left, but she reluctantly gave us a tiny half sample and told us that was our last one. I didn't think two to three samples was excessive when you have about 12 different flavors. When you're spending that much money you want to make sure that you actually like what you are purchasing. Her attitude was so off-putting we will not be back to that location. We regret buying another one from her. The product is amazing, but the gal behind the counter was not friendly. Overall we spent about $100, it's not like we were sampling your samples just to have them and leave. Hopefully this person can provide better service...
Read moreI'll start with the obvious. Rachel's ginger beer is ludicrously expensive. So either accept that or don't. It's Seattle. Everything here is overpriced. I hate it, you hate it, but he we are, tolerating it.
However, if you can get beyond the price, it's absolutely delicious. I'm a big fan of ginger beer, and fruit juice. They combine both, so... Yeah. It's great. They also do floats with it, which are creamy and amazing. The sweet and creamy ice cream with the slightly spicy ginger beer is a great combo.
They have a sort of pop-up for a local chicken restaurant, and it's similarly delicious. I love spicy food, and they can bring the heat with their ghost pepper seasoning.
Anyways, you should try it at least once, because it's great, and it is a local business. So...

Chicken : Chicken is fried crispy with the tender meat inside. Flavor/heat was on point. There isn't too much difference between mild and medium spicy level, both offering good amount of punch. Seasoning on the chicken patty was a little salty for me but I still enjoyed it greatly.
Condiments : The pickled condiments adds juiciness and rich texture to each bite. Coleslaw adds slightly acidic flavors which helps you not get bored of the oiliness of the patty.
Bun : It's a soft bun but not mushy. Holds the sandwich pretty well through out your meal. It's compliments the crispiness of the chicken.
This is probably the best chicken sandwich I had in Seattle. Would recommend others to...
