Drinks & Nightlife
Voted best bar in Seattle 2012. With classic cocktails, it's a personal favorite. The little speakeasy above is called Needle & Thread and is to die for (but is also hard to get in).

Kind of a "bro"ey bar, but it has Bocce ball courts inside with lots of German food and beer. It's a very popular spot on the weekends.
