Food Scene

Only open Saturdays, this pour-over-only coffee shop showcases coffee beans from different roasteries around the world every week. Their main business is sourcing fair trade beans from Central America to roasters, this coffee house is more a side project, but awesome.

We're blessed with great seafood in the Pacific Northwest, and this restaurant prepares beautiful ingredients with care. Fun to get an oyster sampler, just order a couple of each of the different kinds of raw oysters.

Best Thai in town, I'm partial to the Khao Soi. They don't mess around with spicy either, 4 or 5 star is legitimate.

My favorite bar. Really cozy in a converted butchery. Sit in the Red Room and play Cards Against Humanity and look up to realize there's still meathooks hanging from the ceiling and you're in what used to be the freezer. Well-crafted cocktails worth the wait in line on weekends.

Nice lineup of beers but the warehouse setting and the outdoor seating steal the show. Great place for a sunny afternoon with lunch from one of the rotating food trucks.
