Camp West

Camp West is a uniquely cabin-inspired craft cocktail bar and restaurant nestled in the heart of the West Seattle Junction at 4539 California Ave SW. This 21+ venue brings a distinctive mountain lodge aesthetic to urban Seattle, featuring warm wood accents, cozy seating, and a welcoming atmosphere that feels like settling into a remote retreat without leaving the city. The restaurant has earned a reputation for its innovative cocktail program, including the signature Papaya Don't Preach—a refreshing blend of house-made ginger-papaya, vodka, lime, and ginger beer that has become a neighborhood favorite. The menu showcases Pacific Northwest-inspired fare such as Golden Salmon Cakes, Peri Peri Cauliflower, and the Crunchy Chicken Sammie, all designed to pair perfectly with their craft cocktails. Camp West stocks an impressive selection of tequilas including Milagro Añejo, an extensive whiskey collection featuring Lagavulin 11 Year Offerman Edition, and premium rums. Open Tuesday through Thursday from 12pm to 5pm and 8pm to 9pm, Friday with extended evening hours until 10pm, Saturday from 11am, and Sunday with limited evening service, Camp West has become a beloved gathering spot for both locals and visitors exploring West Seattle. Reservations are recommended, especially for weekend evening service.
