had bbq pork on a stick at mee shu bakery...it was delicious!
Pike Place Market is home to the first Starbucks, Rachel the Pig, numerous street performers and entertainers, and the Pike Place Fish Market, which features the fish-throwing fishmongers.
Hit up the original Starbucks!
Great selection and a fantastic sale section as well. The staff knows their stuff. Very helpful.
I love this place-everything to love about a local bookstore. They also have great gifts. Locally made Torch candles and a ton of fun, handmade cards are perfect for anyone.
They no longer have used books as part of an agreement with other used bookstores on the Hill, FYI, but still a great store.
Easily the coolest REI store anywhere. Make sure you go through the main entrance, because its awesome. Kids play area and restaurant and climbing wall. I could die happy here.
walk thru REI's biggest store
REI's towering flagship store! Complete with bike test trail, a climbling wall, and enough outdoor gear to outfit the entire city.
Really and truly the best view of Seattle. Definitely a hike from Belltown/Downtown/any neighborhood near the water but worth it. Better than the view from the space needle!
Stand on the bench closest to the city to get over the trees. This is the postcard shot of Seattle with the Needle in front of the city. For more of a fun shot frame the Space Needle in the sculpture.
Bring your camera.
Mac-n-cheese is a must! French onion soup & Dungeness crab sandwich are also very delish. Also try the cheese curd samples.
Try the Mac and Cheese
The Mariachi mac n' cheese is killer.
Can't go wrong with anything here but the beef and cheese and smoked salmon are big winners!
Pike Place hole-in-the-wall with over two dozen piroshky, Russian pastries with sweet or savory fillings. Try the Seattle-appropriate smoked salmon and cream cheese version.
Don't worry about the line. It moves really fast.
Cocktails Are fantastic. Try the swagger. They also have an $1100 cocktail for those feeling themselves that night (but not likely in the morning)
Canon opened nearly a year ago, and it remains one of the hottest cocktail bars in town, thanks to its ambition.
Order the roulette. You may be surprised but not disappointed.
Amazing on a sunny day. Read more.
A great urban center for people of all ages. Free exhibitions park space and great museums! Space needle, EmP, science center, armory, chihuly Garden, stadiums, international fountain! I love it here!
The heart of Seattle's arts and culture - home to the Space Needle, Pacific Science Center, Experience Music Project, The Children's Museum, & more! Monorail runs directly between downtown & here.
If you like BBQ get the bandit, great sandwich with a little bit of spice. The sandwich can get messy so be sure to grab napkins
get the gouch, it's amazing
The gooch! Put it in your mouth!
Amazing menu that changes everyday with an awesome selection of appetizers and sauces. A hole in the wall that's always packed. Get there early
Mike Easton's hand made pasta and charcuterie will become a regular habit. His place is located in the Hillclimb--literally in Procopio Gelateria. [Eater 38 Member]
The best lunch spot for incredible, handmade pasta. Arrive before noon to avoid a long line.
Formerly Qwest Field, this is the home of some of the best gameday food out there. Grab a S’pacific Salmon BLT at the Catch! stand (sec 214, 230) or give some Caffé Apassionato coffee a try. Read more.
Originally Seahawks Stadium, this place was opened back in 2002 as a new world-class football/ soccer stadium and exhibition center. Thanks to the efforts from our owner, Paul G. Allen.
You’re allowed to bring in food and bottled water into the stadium. So saddle up with some burgers, dogs, & brats from your tailgate, and prepare for battle.
Food is excellent and portion sizes are perfect. The bread is fresh and amazing. soccer on tv is an added bonus and a very warm atmosphere.
The steak tartare is the best in the city. Period. When it's not on the menu in winter months, the onion soup is fabulous.
It's the most come-as-you-are French cafe in town, suffused with a casual dailiness that makes it dangerously easy to become a regular. Read more.
Monday night is the trapeze artist from 6 to 9. Call ahead for a good seat. Oh and the lasagna is pretty good ;) it will leave you with room for dessert though.
GET the lasagna!! I have never had this happen to my mouth before.
Best. lasagna. ever.
pear cocktail, then try the gnudi, finish up with the parsnip dessert! One of the most unique places I've ever been to.
About as Seattle as it gets. Chef Matt Dillon; Northwest ingredients; and dishes that seem disarmingly simple, until you realize you could never recreate them yourself. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Amazing Restaurant in a location you will never believe
Donuts are fresh here and they have cold press coffee. Yum!
Old fashioned maple
No need to commute to VooDoo Doughnuts in Portland or Frost Doughnuts in Mill Creek anymore for a Maple Bacon Doughnut.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
