Drinks & Nightlife

Bar and restaurant located in the heart of The Gig. Very touristy but a must see for lively time and one of the best locations to view the harbor. Close up look at some very fine ocean going vessels.

A bit of the beer crowd but everyone is friendly and courteous. The bar tenders will allow samples of their most recent brews and have good beer knowledge. Great place for a birthday party!!

This is a must do if you have the time. Visit Seattle either with your car or on foot (my favorite for around $10 RT). One hour ferry ride in comfort and with awesome views. Sit with a local commuter and let them tell you some history of the area. Let's you off in the historic section of Seattle where you can pick up an Uber and off you go. Mariners and Seahawk stadiums are a short ride away with return ferry trips going into the late hours. Do it!!
