What to do and see in Seattle, Washington (WA): The Best Performances

May 30, 2021 Mollie Coke

In Seattle you simply can’t skip the Central Public Library – a modern architectural marvel of glass grids, unusual shapes, and a “book spiral” that climbs four stories. Stroll over to Pike Place Market to visit the original Starbucks and play catch with a fishmonger. In the heart of the city lies Chihuly Garden and Glass, which will dazzle you with its colorful and delicate works. Glide to the top of the Space Needle for panoramic views of the surrounding mountain ranges and Puget Sound.

Tractor Tavern

Reviewed By magicconnch - Seattle, United States

Tractor has quickly become one of my favorite Venues in Seattle, and for good reason. While it hosts a lot of Country, Americana, and Folk shows, overall the Tractor brings an eclectic mix of all types of Music. They attract Bands with large pulls, so shows often sellout, get your tickets early! The size of the Venue is perfect, intimate, but still roomy enough where you are not packed, really not a bad place to be in the Venue, often times you can find yourself right on the stage. There is some bench style seating against the wall, for less crowded shows they will generally bring in a few tables for those sitting on the benches. Recently renovated to add a new bar out front, it can be a way to purchase drinks if there is a long bar line, as well as the addition of an additional bathroom. Tickets for shows are generally will call, and will always be 21+. Plenty of good food/drinks nearby for some prefunking or if you are looking for something to do after. If you like live music you will not be disappointed with the Tractor.

The Pink Door

Reviewed By PaulB11272 - Milton Keynes, United Kingdom

What a super cool place! Arrived on a long flight from LHR and searched around to see nice places to jump and get a dinner before trying to deal with the jet lag... Stumbled upon this place! Opened the pink door and walked down the steps into a bustling chatty cool bohemian restaurant. Food and staff are awesome, it’s not fine dining but local excellent food with a nice vibe. Oh and check out the impromptu ceiling acrobats and small amateur dramatic productions without warning in the middle of the evening!

Kells Irish Pub

Reviewed By Samsonite_0 - Santa Rosa, United States

If your in the mood for a good draft beer or cider (exclusively made from Kells), then it’s the perfect Irish bar for you. If you want a good aged Irish whiskey or Scotch, they definitely won’t disappoint. Outside seating on a nice summer day, 100% non-disappointing. Try it out! A hop and skip away from Pike Market, so have a seat and take a load off.....

El Corazon

Reviewed By ROMEINADAY - New York City, United States

Listen... this is a true rock club. Dive bars are disappearing from Seattle. In the 90s, places had character. Thank god there's still El Corazon and The Funhouse to bring back memories from the old days. I miss old Seattle. Now people complain about the bathrooms at venues....lol... didn't know people went to a show to rate the shitters. Long live El Corazon.
