Helpful information about Downtown Seattle:
Shiro's - Each chef at Shiros is a recognized as a sushi master in their own right with a deep understanding of “Edomae”, the sushi preparation method of original founder, Shiro Kashiba.
Shaker + Spear - is like eating inside a Crate & Barrel catalogue, aesthetically gorgeous with a touch of boujee. The food is phenom too!
Rocco’s - Best pizza in Belltown area
Fulcrum Café - One of Seattle’s most esteemed roasters is run by fifth-generation Costa Rican coffee farmer Blas Aflaro. Fulcrum’s Belltown cafe is modern and welcoming, and delivers on the high standards set for quality coffee.
Monorail Espresso - Credited with being the nation’s first espresso cart, Monorail Espresso should be on the radar for any Seattle coffee devotee. Its original incarnation — a coffee cart (stationed by the entrance of the downtown monorail) made with parts from a Boeing surplus shuttle cart in 1980 — eventually transitioned into a walk-up window at Fifth Avenue and Pike Street.
Restaurants, Bars and Coffee Shops
We highly recommend the following Bars and coffee shops to visit during your stay.
Sabine- Quaint cafe with outdoor seating. Delicious food, coffee, and wine. One of our favorites. You'll find many amazing places to eat and drink all along Ballard Ave NW.
Excellent Coffee Shops-Ballard Coffee Works, Woodland Coffee, and Biscuit and Bean (fresh biscuits and vanilla syrup!)
Within 5 blocks of the townhome you'll find:Stoup Brewing, Urban Family Brewing Co, Reuben's Brews, Lucky Envelope, and Fair Isle Brewing
San Fermo-Amazing Italian restaurant set in a romantic antique cottage. Highly recommend for a romantic dinner. Reservations highly suggested. Also located on Ballard Ave NW
Brimmer & Heeltap-Delicious food located on NW Market Street
Great Notion-Great environment to enjoy a local beer
Pono Ranch-Funky space with a fun atmosphere to enjoy a drink.
Top Pot Doughnuts- Great doughnut shop.
