Sip New Late-Summer Bevvies at Ray’s

Sip New Late-Summer Bevvies at Ray’s

August 10, 2026

Late summer is here, and Ray’s has fresh new drinks to help you savor it! Enjoy refreshing beers and cocktails throughout the final full month of summer.

Relax on the breezy patios at Ray’s Boathouse and Cafe, or escape the heat inside our air-conditioned dining rooms. Both locations offer beautiful views, fresh flavors, and relaxed casual dining.

At Ray’s Cafe, sip the ‘Rays of Our Lives’ Summer IPA from Stoup Brewing in Ballard. This light, easy-drinking IPA was brewed exclusively for Ray’s. It bursts with tropical passionfruit and peach flavors.

Prefer something fruity and refreshing? Try our Pink Grapefruit & Strawberry Sangria. This bright cocktail combines dry rosé wine, Giffard Pamplemousse liqueur, and Aperol. Vodka, lemon, grapefruit, and strawberry purée add even more flavor. Soda keeps it refreshing and light.

Looking for the perfect pairing with lunch? Stop by Ray’s Cafe for casual dining and refreshing drinks.

Downstairs at Ray’s Boathouse, discover two new cocktails with plenty of personality. Crop Top puts a grapefruit spin on the classic Last Word cocktail. Broker’s London Dry Gin meets Amaro Montenegro and Giffard Pamplemousse liqueur. Lemon, grapefruit, and Angostura bitters complete this bright cocktail.

Enter If You Dare brings sweet, tart, and spicy flavors together. Serrano-infused blanco tequila meets cilantro syrup, lime, and mango. A salted rim adds the perfect finishing touch.

Whether you’re enjoying cocktails, lunch, or dinner, Ray’s offers unforgettable waterfront dining. Pair your drinks with fresh seafood at Seattle’s best seafood restaurant.

Cafe guests can walk in for indoor or outdoor dining. Boathouse reservations are available for indoor dining. Both decks offer first-come, first-served seating.

Please check in with our host when you arrive. Then sit back, sip, and enjoy late summer at Ray’s!
