All posts
The Woods
If you're looking for a Capitol Hill nightclub where you can dance under a disco ball, get distracted by strobe lights, and have an absolutely wild night out, head to The Woods.
Ballard Beer Box
Ballard Beer Box is a blacklit pizza operation in Ballard where you can eat excellent charred pies and crack open a beer from a big fridge.

For your next night out on Capitol Hill, head to Donna's. At this Italian cocktail bar, you'll find tasty (and reasonably-priced) pasta dishes, strong cocktails, and a golden disco ball.
Shibuya Hi-Fi
Shibuya Hi-Fi is a listening bar that works well if you're there solely to listen to vinyl, but not for much else.
Korochka Tavern
Korochka Tavern is an Eastern European bar in Wallingford that we love for beet-infused vodka cocktails and a ton of excellent pelmeni.
Enkore Karaoke
If you enjoy private karaoke experiences and drinking on The Ave, you'll probably also enjoy Enkore Karaoke's University District location.
The Alley
The Alley is a speakeasy in West Seattle that you can find through a secret entrance in the supply room of a Vietnamese restaurant.
Bathtub Gin & Co.
Bathtub Gin & Co. is a Belltown speakeasy with cocktails that are just fine, but not worth the wait it takes to get in.

Founders Club is a Downtown speakeasy hidden in the lobby of the Olympic Fairmont Hotel—It's only worth it if you have a lot of disposable income to spend on mediocre drinks.
Raney's Bar & Grill
There's some of Seattle's best BBQ hidden inside this Sodo dive bar. Grab a great pulled pork sandwich with a pile of fries at Raney's.
Reservoir Bar & Grill
Reservoir Bar & Grill, otherwise known as "The Rez," is a dive bar across from Maple Leaf Park that has pool tables, a secret back patio, and fried food.
