(206) 784-3535
Category:
American (New)
Neighbourhood: Phinney Ridge
What a wonderful neighborhood spot! Came for a late afternoon happy hour and they had an amazing selection of drinks and delectable food. My friends and I were all initially going to get the same cocktail but our server convinced us otherwise and we…More »
2. Pike Place Fish Market
Come be a tourist. Come watch fish being thrown. The fish market stalls at Tsukiji Market in Tokyo make this look like minor league.
3. The Hawks Nest Bar & Grill
Seattle, WA 98134
(206) 381-8630
Categories:
American (Traditional),
Sports Bars
Neighbourhood: SODO
Pretty standard sports bar but they had $3 beers on game day which made it a nice place to swing by before the Sounders game.
4. Green Lake Park
Seattle, WA 98103
(206) 684-4075
Categories:
Parks,
Playgrounds
Neighbourhood: Green Lake
Whether you are biking, walking your dog, rollerblading, or tanning, this is a wonderful little lake and park to take advantage of if you are in the area.
5. Pike Place Market
Seattle, WA 98101
(206) 682-7453
Categories:
Fruits & Veggies,
Seafood Markets,
Grocery
Neighbourhood: Downtown
After hearing so many people rave this I had high hopes. While it was interesting and had a variety of shops, I did not find Pike Place all that it was cracked up to be. I think food (outside of the main market) and flowers are probably the best part…More »
6. Eastlake Bar & Grill
Seattle, WA 98102
(206) 957-7777
Categories:
Bars,
Breakfast & Brunch,
American (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: Eastlake
Nothing too out of the ordinary but it does have a wonderful view off the deck or rooftop. Looking out over the water at happy hour enjoying some delicious cocktails and watching the sunset was great. The salmon burgers that my friends orders looked…More »
7. Pallino Pastaria
Had good, quick breakfast spot if you are at the airport. You get quite a bit of food for not too much money (by airport standards).
8. La Boulangerie
Seattle, WA 98103
(206) 634-2211
Categories:
Bakeries,
Coffee & Tea,
Desserts
Neighbourhood: Wallingford
A tiny little bakery which had some very appetizing looking loafs of bread. I just bought a couple of their tiny pies (pecan and almond) and was very pleased with them.
9. Fremont Sunday Street Market
Seattle, WA 98103
(206) 781-6776

10. Pike Place Market Gum Wall
Seattle, WA 98101
Categories:
Local Flavor,
Landmarks & Historical Buildings
Neighbourhood: Downtown
Simultaneously disgusting and fascinating. It is very fun looking for messages and notes in the neverending gum.
11. Veraci Pizza
I picked up a slice at the Fremont Market after seeing them set up and people line up for some fresh pizza. It is so awesome that they have a portable wood burning oven that they make their pies fresh in at the market. They whole set-up of their area…More »
12. Piroshky Piroshky
Seattle, WA 98101
(206) 441-6068
Nom nom nom! Flaky baked bits of Russian heaven. My friends and I sampled basically half of the menu and were not disappointed with any of our shoes. This was a great meal before the Sounders game and we were able to take our food out to the grass…More »
13. Barrio Mexican Kitchen & Bar
Seattle, WA 98122
(206) 588-8105
Categories:
Mexican,
American (New)
Neighbourhood: Capitol Hill
I had a wonderful birthday dinner here with old and new friends. Tacos, beans, yuca fries, and drinks were all absolutely delicious! The churros were a bit to greasy for my taste but they were free for my birthday so I can't complain. The restaurant…More »
14. Hertz
A pretty standard rental place. Our car was nice, new, and clean but the service was meh. They kind of just pushed us through (which was nice because we were trying to leave early) and did not inspect the car with us. It was easy enough to return the…More »
15. Bill Speidel's Underground Tour
While this may be the epitome of being a tourist, I still had a good time on the tour. Being such a history nerd, I love learning about the places I am visiting. The Underground Tour is fun and informative and not all that pricey. The staff is upbeat…More »
16. Barca
Standard sort of bar. Nothing to really write home about. Plenty of places to sit and quite a diverse assortment of people out here on a Saturday night.
17. Tavern Law
Seattle, WA 98122
(206) 322-9734
Categories:
American (New),
Lounges
Neighbourhood: Capitol Hill
While they may be known for their detailed and intense cocktails I found mine to be only so-so. Because the bartenders have to focus so much on each of the intricate drinks they make, they aren't very attentive to the large number of people waiting…More »
18. Fainting Goat Gelato
Seattle, WA 98103
(206) 327-9459
Categories:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt,
Gelato,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Wallingford
An adorable gelato spot with a good variety of flavors. The friendly staff is more than happy to let you sample the flavors and find one that really works for you. Plus, you don't have to wait in Molly Moons' line!
19. Chicarepa
Seattle, WA 98103
(425) 273-3980
Categories:
Street Vendors,
Venezuelan
Neighbourhood: Fremont
My sister loved her avocado arepa from this wonderful little Fremont Sunday Market stand. Arepas are pretty hard to come by in most cities so don't pass by these ones.
20. Los Agaves Events
Cheap and delicious fresh tacos. I had one of each ( chicken, beef, and pork) and the salsa they put on really packed a punch. They were full of flavor and very juicy. This was my favorite snack at the Sunday Market.
21. Tandoozy
Picked up some fresh chutney naan while at the Fremont Sunday Market. Right in the middle of the food stands, you watch your naan being made fresh and it is absolutely fantastic.
22. Bizzarro Italian Café
Bizarre and amazing! A very small place with a very powerful menu. Everything we had (meatballs, gnocchi, chicken, and clam alfredo) were mind-blowingly delicious. I highly recommend upgrading your salad to the soup as well. Their soup was literally…More »
23. Top Pot Doughnuts
Seattle, WA 98121
(206) 728-1966
Categories:
Bakeries,
Coffee & Tea,
Donuts
Neighbourhood: Belltown
They have quite a variety of delicious donuts for all tastes hear. I stuck with maple and cinnamon donuts and was not disappointed with any of my choices. They are all pretty big so I am sad I could not try more without getting so full!
24. Washington State Ferries
Seattle, WA 98121
(206) 464-6400
Category:
Public Transportation
Neighbourhood: Belltown
Too and from Seattle to Bainbridge. Simple, easy, and efficient.

(206) 501-6706
Categories:
Soup,
Sandwiches,
Vegetarian
Neighbourhood: Fremont
My sister insisted we come here while in Fremont. I cute little sandwich and soup joint that used to go by the name Nana's. My white chicken chili was pretty delicious but nothing too spectacular. We came at an off time so I am not too sure how busy…More »
26. Bainbridge Island Terminal
Efficient and the easiest way between Seattle and Bainbridge. Whether you are driving, biking, or a pedestrian the quick ride across the sound is easy enough. Most commuters just use it as a quick nap.
27. The Crumpet Shop
Seattle, WA 98101
(206) 682-1598
Categories:
Bakeries,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Downtown
I can remember joking about tea and crumpets since childhood but I honestly did not know what a crumpet was until I entered The Crumpet Shop. I must say, they are absolutely delicious little things and I wonder why English muffins are a more popular…More »
28. Paseo
Seattle, WA 98107
(206) 789-3100
Categories:
Caribbean,
Sandwiches,
Cuban
Neighbourhood: Ballard
I am Cuban and a very harsh judge an all Cuban food outside of FL. I am also not a huge fan of sandwiches since I feel like you can get entrees much more appetizing for just as much money at meals. My negative predispositions being said, Paseo's…More »
29. Gas Works Park
What a great way to transform an old industrial site into something the entire city can enjoy. With a wonderful view of the city Gas Works is a great park to visit. I recommend coming by at night as well since they close well after dark. The night I…More »
30. Columbia Center Observation Deck
What a great deal for a wonderful view of Seattle and the surrounding area. Most people stop on the mid-level with Starbucks because it is free but it really is worth paying a few extra bucks to get the better view. It's in the middle of the business…More »
31. Brave Horse Tavern
A pretty standard place. Swung by for happy hour after my friends got off work. The sangria was pretty good and the fresh soft-baked pretzels were complimented best by the number of mustards they have.
32. Portage Bay Goods
What an absolutely adorable shop! I just loved everything about the toys, the atmosphere, the cards, the staff, everything! Most of the time when I visit places like this I go crazy wanting to buy things but never end up getting anything. They had a…More »
33. Theo Chocolate
I sadly had to miss the tour I made reservations for (only $6) so my friends and I tried to just drop in and walk on for a tour. Unfortunately they were full but we still had an amazing time sampling all of Theo's amazing chocolates. Anyway is…More »
34. Old School Frozen Custard
Seattle, WA 98122
(206) 324-2586
Category:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighbourhood: Capitol Hill
There are plenty of places in Capital Hill to get your fix of sugar and Old School Frozen Custard is a real stand out spot. While most custard places change their flavor of the day every two days, Old School steps it up and changes it daily with tons…More »

Seattle, WA 98103
(206) 499-6967
Categories:
Mexican,
Food Stands,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: Fremont
I always put much more stock in taco trucks than most other Mexican restaurants. Flair Taco did not let me down! My pork taco was packed with meat, fresh, and flavorful. A well priced taco and a good option if you are looking for a quick meal on the…More »
36. The Fremont Troll
Seattle, WA 98103
(206) 547-7440
Categories:
Local Flavor,

Neighbourhood: Fremont
So random and so cool. Be sure to note the car under his hand!
37. Qdoba Mexican Grill
Holler for breakfast burritos! Fast, flavorful (at least the chorizo was), and fabulous! The same you can get anywhere but it really hit the spot for me.
38. Cinnamon Works
Full from The Crumpet Shop, my sister and I still could not resist a quick sweet while walking around the market. While the cinnamon buns looked great we knew we could not take that much food so we opted for a giant chocolate chip cookie. Sadly, it…More »

Categories:
Mediterranean,
Tapas/Small Plates

Took my friends out here for an end of visit thank you dinner and while everyone else in our party liked the food, it definitely thought it was lacking. While our server was really nice and helpful and the decor was simple and clean, the food just…More »
40. Seattle-Tacoma International Airport
Had no problems with this clean and wonderful airport. They had some pretty nice art on display and a variety of restaurants and shops to choose from across the terminals.
