Food Scene
There are a surprising number of eateries in Winslow. Most are on or near Winslow Way W, and cater mainly to the many visitors who come over for the day from Seattle hotels. Most locals prefer a few places a little further afield like the Harbor Public House, Pegasus Coffeehouse or a few places in Lynwood Center like the Tree House.
A favorite hangout for locals and it's only about a 10 minute walk from here.

A unique National Historic Site inspired to represent the waves of time passing, the sinuous, curving Memorial Wall is built on the historic Eagledale Ferry dock landing site where the first of more than 120,000 Japanese Americans - two/thirds of them U.S. citizens - were banished from their West Coast homes and placed in concentration camps during World War II.On March 30, 1942 - with only six days notice and only allowed to bring what they could carry or wear - 227 Bainbridge Island men, women and children were forcibly removed by bayonet-armed U.S. Army soldiers. They were the first mass community to arrive at the Manzanar concentration camp in California and later most were assigned to the last barracks at the Minidoka concentration camp in Idaho, becoming the emblematic bookends of the Japanese American incarceration story.
