Love the coffee drinks at this Euro-style spot, and that adore goes double for the gelato. Grab a seat in the courtyard for some prime people watching.

No soup for you! Some customers joke that this place is run by a staff that's a lot like the Soup Nazi. Not so. The classic sandwiches are worth lining up for.

Friendly espresso spot in Pioneer Square, this chill space draws a mix of regulars, tourists and sports fans looking to get their coffee fix. No prob if you wanna hang and use the free WiFi.

The former Steamers has been revamped and it's a huge hit. Love the outdoor oyster bar, with loads of Northwest beer and wine. Don't miss the halibut tostadas!

Originally intended to be the first stop before diners settle into sister Spinasse next door, this high-concept watering hole has become a force. Clever craft cocktails and creative plates keep the room packed.

Really tasty Filipino food, served dim sum style. Loved the adobo, kara kara, pancit and, of course, the lumpia. Staff at this Mom and Pop is so friendly. Go on Sunday for a taste of everything.

Sandwich paradise! This hopping hot spot is often packed, so prepare for a wait. But the flavorful combos make it worth your time and trouble. The especially colorful characters on Capitol Hill show up after closing... Sandwich paradise! This hopping hot spot is often packed, so prepare for a wait.

Learn to sail here, with classes offered nearly year-round on Lake Union. Or, show up for a sea shanty sing-along. Even if you just do a fly by, this is a pretty cool spot to check out.

What happens when a couple of chefs create a gourmet juice company? This permanent popup at Le Bete uses fruits and veggies from local growers when possible. You can taste the fresh in these healthy refreshers.
